Sunshine left Major Elio and Carson discussing how they would kill off Augustus Bellam. She overheard Elio suggesting that they should question him for a week and try other torture tactics. If nothing worked, they could dispose of him.
She was certain that they would inform her of the decision they had come to later. What she did not wish to do was spend all day listening to them debate about his affairs. All she needed were final results.
Hades followed her outside and he took her hand. "Will you be going for Sunday mass tomorrow?"
The smile which was just beginning to bud on her face died quickly. "Elio told me that he peaked at Father Nicodemus's sermon and he plans to preach about mercy."
Hades snorted. "That is not unexpected, considering all that we have been through this week. The priest forgets that even God created heaven and hell. Heaven is reserved for the good and hell is meant for the bad."
