"Maxim Ogu?" I asked.

"Yes, that is the guy."

Damn it, I had been the one to vet him. If he did something that would piss me off, I am going to rip his head. I scanned the arms and soon found both him and the Taylor couple.

"Had he approached them?" He shook his head.

"No, he has kept a respectable distance. At least for the moment."

"Good, I will let security know about your concern. They will keep an eye on him both here and through the surveillance cameras. Is there anything else I should know about?" He shook his head again.

"That is all."

Finishing up my drink, I sent a text to the ones working security tonight to watch out for Maxim Ogu. With a last look at the couple and him, I started making my way to the stairs.

Trained behavior was hard to unlearn, even after spending years apart. I was almost impressed when we walked across the club, and she made no notion of looking around the place.
