Alice woke late the next day. She hadn’t slept well, between Thompson taking up half the bed again and breathing tuna on her face, and her mind shuffling through different possibilities for the bauble thieves and kidnappers. While it seemed that it could only be dragons, she couldn’t get the man at the Christmas market out of her head, or the silver Audi that had appeared on the streets so soon after. Could that be him as well? It seemed to her that he’d been too curious, too pushy. And hadn’t he looked at the dragons instead of just into the shadows of the stall? Just as if he knew to expect dragons? She wasn’t sure, but she needed to ask Beaufort about him, see if he’d smelt anything strange on the man. Although she supposed Beaufort would be busy with his own interrogations this morning.

She pushed the covers aside, careful not to disturb the cat, who yawned and rolled onto his back, looking like he’d had a wonderful sleep. She pulled her dressing gown over her pyjamas and padded downstairs barefoot to put the kettle on. She was measuring tea into the teapot – teabags were fine for later in the day, but not for that first cup – when a warm body snaked around her ankles and she jumped, almost spilling the tea leaves.

She frowned at him. “Sneaky little monster.”

He gave her his flat green gaze and mewled softly, then rubbed his head on her legs again. She wondered why she hadn’t just kicked him out, as he obviously made his home anywhere that was happy to feed him. It wasn’t like she’d have been doing him any hardship. And especially after what Beaufort and Mortimer had said about the cats of the Watch. But then again, there was always that theory about keeping your enemies close.

She took the tuna out of the fridge.
