Chapter 10

• "Glad to have you join us, Mr. Baldwin," Nico smiled as John stepped into the large room.
• The place was filled with men, a round table in their centre. With Nico at the head, it looked a model of the Round Table of King Arthur and his Knights except that John didn't think someone as cunning, wicked and dangerous as Nico could fit into the role of the legendary king. There was an empty seat near the bottom of the table and John went for it, but Nico shook his head in disapproval and indicated a seat to his left that was also empty.
• "Henry, when he was with us, used to occupy this seat," he clarified with a stiff smile.
