As the glass was set before her, she raised it to her lips and took a large swallow, letting the warmth burn the pain away. If she could scour that single emotion from her body, even for a few hours, she could deal with this new change. Hell, if she could get rid of the pain she might be able to enjoy his return. Setting the glass on the table, she watched the dark liquid as it swirled around those two cubes of ice.

Amber gaze turned to him as he spoke, a slim brow arching in surprise "Sphinx is dead. He was killed by the feds in Florida." Gods, what if he wasn't dead? What if he'd somehow survived? And he was coming here!? She didn't even know what Sasha would do when she found out! Even though she'd been just as pissed as everyone else when he'd left, she had mourned his death. She still loved the man, even though he had hurt her. That seemed to be a pattern with the little blond. Least this time she'd picked a man who didn't beat her.

She turned back to him, only just realizing that her gaze had slid back to her drink as her mind had raced. "They've written me off as dead and gone. I wasn't any use, so I don't exist to them anymore." Using her mothers maiden name had finished the job, making the old Nancy truly dead and gone. She took another sip from the glass, savoring the taste this time before letting it warm her belly.
