phone started to ring; it was a pay-as-you-go phone, one purchased in her cover name, Jasmine Alamein.
She looked at Jorge. “It’s Natasha.”
“Answer it!”
“Ah, Jasmine, my darling,” Natasha said. “I’m so glad to reach you so quickly.”
“Yeah, no problem,” Jasmine said.
“We have a favor to ask of you. It includes a bonus, naturally.”
“What is it?” Jasmine asked. Jorge was staring at her, wary.
“That friend of Josef’s—Mr. Marensky. He is new in town. He has asked if you would be so good as to show him around. We’d be happy if you could do so—he came to us, instead of trying to twist our arm for a phone number. You will take him around town, yes? I said that wrong. He wishes to take you to dinner and perhaps you could show him some of the beach. And report to me, of course.”
“Yes, for sure. Where do you want me to be when?” Jasmine asked.
“He will call for you at your apartment. Please, make sure your friend is not there when he arrives.”
“What time?”
“Eight o’clock tonight.”
“Thank you, Natasha. I will be ready.”
“Wear something very pretty.” Natasha didn’t mean pretty. She meant sexy.
“I will. Thank you. Thank you!”
“My pleasure. Tomorrow morning you will come back in here.”
“Yes, Natasha.” Jasmine hung up. Jorge was staring at her. “My first date.”
“I was afraid of this.”
“She doesn’t want you hanging around when my date comes for me.”
“Like hell!”
“It’s Jacob—Marensky.”
“Oh.” Jorge breathed a sigh of relief.
“I’m just a little worried,” Jasmine said.
“About Jacob?”
Jasmine laughed. “Not on that account—I’m not sure he’s particularly fond of me.”
“You were acting badly.”
“I was not—”
“You were.”
“Never mind. I’m just wondering what good it’s going to do if we just wind up watching one another.”
“Trust me. That man has a plan in mind.”
“I hope you’re right. I’m so worried.”
“Jasmine, we just went undercover. You know as well as I do that often cops and agents have to lead a double life for months to get what they’re after. Years.”
“This can’t take that long,” she said softly. She didn’t add the rest of what she was thinking.
If it did...they might well end up dead themselves.
