“Mhm, no problem.” Noire casually paced the floor in front of her prisoner. One hand was tucked away in her coat pocket, the other to her mouth as she nibbled at her fingernail. She constantly pointed lurid glances over at Farah, until her plotting was over and she faced the hero head on again. “Since you’ll be staying with us for some time I made you up a room at the Aurora. You can eat and get cleaned up there.” It was risky taking the enemy into her syndicate’s most permanent, vulnerable hideout so soon. It was also the most comfortable, and she wanted Farah to trust her.
