Wren and the Ravens
Page 29
“So that’s it? You’re just going to retire?”
Wren smiled. “From now on, I am just a man who leads a group of acrobats and lives on tropical islands. I think I’ve earned it.”
“Wait a second? Why do we have to work?” she protested.
“You still have a hefty debt to pay off,” he reminded her. “Besides, unlike espionage, being acrobats was something you all are actually kind of good at.”
Knell scowled slightly, looking a little offended, but then quickly recovered, as she seemed to realize it was meant as a compliment. “We saved your life,” she said.
“How many times have I pulled you from cages, nets, and prison cells?” Wren quipped.
Knell puffed air. “All right,” she agreed with a sideways glance. “As long as I get a lounge chair on the beach.”
Wren chuckled and shook his head back and forth. “You drive a hard bargain. You must have learned to negotiate from a sailor.” He paused for a moment, then stuck out his hand. “It’s a deal!”
“And what will we call ourselves?” she asked. “We’ll need a name for our act.”
“How about, Wren and the Ravens,” Wren said with a wry grin.
