"You're really going to leave your woman with that other man, Boss?" Marco glanced over at him and Varys snorted.
"I don't have a choice right now. If I sent him on this mission he wouldn't be able to tell what's normal behavior and what's not. They'll be fine in that room until I get back, only you and I have the keys to it."
"Not exactly," Marco replied as he turned completely away.
"Excuse me?" Varys demanded as he whirled on the other man. "You're going to have to explain yourself to me right now, Marco. I don't care how long I've known you, if you put Hope in danger, I'm gutting you like a pig."
Marco didn't even wince at the threat. "One of your other men has a key. I forgot his name, but he's the one that interrupted you the other night. The one you let live."
"The one with the hole in his hand?" Varys demanded. Would something like that really cause his men to turn on him? He'd done worse, far worse.
"Yeah."
"And how did he get the key to that room, Marco? It only had two copies, mine and yours."
Marco expelled a long breath. "Boss, I need to hear you promise you won't kill the person who's responsible for this mess."
"I'm not promising anything, Marco. Out with it. You're not in a place to strike a deal with me for your safety or the safety of your friend."
"No, it's not for a friend of mine, just, someone I worry about. Just please, Boss."
