A Vixen Loose in Venice. Hulderotica, #17

Eresh is never one to turn down a fancy costume ball. Especially one in Venice. And not when she's been hired to steal one of the host's most treasured illegally-acquired relics. A challenge made all the more fun when the Carabinieri turn out to be in attendance too, expecting Eresh's nom de guerre, the Fox, to try and take it. A welcome diversion, as it gives her a chance to catch up with her favourite detective sparring partner - and former lover - Sienna.
And with the drinks flowing and the masks in place, when they collide who's to say what sparks may fly?5, 100 Words. Standalone.
