Sphix took a chair and sat down. She settled the femur on the table so that she could keep an eye on it. Her brother, for one, had had the irritating tendency to think of everything as his, and while none of the people gathered here stroke her as a bone thief, with strangers you could never know for sure.
After she was seated Sphix put a smile on her face and looked up at the waiter. ”Wensleydale”, she said, trying the name. It sounded tasty. ”I will have some meat. Raw, please.” Ordering human flesh was out of the question, even in a place like this, even if Apollo had said that they could stop pretending here. After all, it only required one undercover police officer and she would be in trouble. The possibly crazy Brenda had said that there was no need to worry, but the mere fact that Sphix had reason to doubt Brenda’s sanity spoke strongly against trusting her word.
