Alyssa listened with a spark of amusement in her eyes as the detective bantered back with her a bit which was rare. He was always so stoic when they had their little encounters. She almost cherished the moments like these when he showed a more playful side of himself but his other side never failed to come out eventually. So she frowned though he would not be able to tell because of her mask, â€œOh, no monsieur Hyde for me anymore?â€ She teased in the accent of hers as he reached out to grab her as he always did. She stepped back out of his reach of course, â€œI love playing these little games you yours my dear but I am starting to get the impression that you may have a little cruse on me no?â€ She was feeling very playful and dangerous tonight so she stepped inside of guard quickly which she knew surprised him, â€œOne day I wonder if we would set the world on fire with this heat between us.â€ She purred as she lifted her mask enough to plant a kiss on his lips.<br/><br/>Then once again she had ducked before he could react and ran away from him, â€œGive this up mon amour for you know I cannot give this woman to you so easily.â€ She had given back the â€œSymposium of Empress Eudoxiaâ€ that was painted by Theofilos Hatzimicheal and that had been worth a lot of money but not as much as the â€œMona Lisa.â€ She ducked around the corner with her sexy detective on her tail once again and it seemed almost cruel for such a handsome man such as him to be her enemy, â€œNo more freebies for a little while but perhaps next time!â€ Her words bounced off the walls around her in the narrow alley ways that she took. It almost looked as though she was randomly taking paths just to shake the man off her trail but no she had a plan like she always did. She could hear the sirens of the police as they finally arrived at the scene of her newest crime and once more she called back to her pursuer, â€œIf you ever worked with the authorities I may actually be in trouble of you catching me!â€ That was what she one day feared but so far he seemed to be hell bent on capturing her himself after their first encounter in China where she had told him he would never be able to capture her on his own.<br/><br/>It was down another four alleys before she reached her destination and just in time too. The Detective was almost in grabbing distance in fact the moment she ducked into the crevice in the ground she felt his fingers brush against the back of her neck. From inside of the pitch dark tunnel she yelled back at him, knowing that her voice would be carried back to him, â€œGive up Detective you have lost this one.â€ She knew this place like the back of her hand now and she had some night vision goggles already in place.
