"Let me take care of that," Ana replied as she picked up the drinks. She could see Veronica and Mary looking around for her, so she took the drinks back to their table, adding a bit of a saunter to her walk. It would make her lie more convincing.

"Ladies," she said as she gently set the glasses down, "I do believe I'm going to take our unexpected guest back to our room for a while. So Mary, you can have my drink, and I'll see you both later. If I'm not there when you get back, don't worry about it." Veronica raised an eyebrow, but grinned suggestively.

"Well, then, have a nice night," she said. "Let us know if he's any good."

"You know I don't brag about my donors," Ana replied. With that, she walked back to Kris and linked one of her arms with his for show. "We're all set to leave. But I want your word that you won't hunt them down later."
