Damian tilted his head, listening. "Three. Maybe four."
"And what do we do?"
He grinned. "We wait."
"For what?"
"For them to make the first move."
Selena narrowed her eyes. "And if they don't?"
"Oh, they will," Damian said, rolling his shoulders. "People get impatient when they think they have the upper hand."
