As the song ended, the room stood up and gave a standing ovation to the young woman on the piano. Caius joined them and even walked over to musician as the applause started to subside. He reached in his pocket and pulled out some jewels and added it to her tip jar. He then extended his hand out to shake it "Hot damn woman. You have magic fingers. This tip is well deserved." She smiled as she shook his hand as well. He pulled her in for a hug and though she was taken aback at first, she returned the favor. However, when she was facing away, Caius hatched his plan. Hidden in the jewels was a small pill that was dissolvable. Think roofie mixed with elephant tranquilizer. The pillow dropped in her drink and dispersed without a trace. Afterwards he took his leave.
Caius returned back to his seat afterwards as the waiter brought his small black coffee. Now it was time to play the waiting game. Though the drug was strong, it would take about an hour or so for it to take effect. It would be past closing time so that's when he would make his move. The pianist would make a good servant but the skills might make her sell for a high price. The next song started as he took a sip of his coffee deciding on what her fate would be.
