The last thing she wanted was for the enemies in the shadows to know that they had back-up. That would make them more vigilant. As it was, the sight of her with two kids gave the impression that they were weak.

Her one little vice.
Reading those 'no-need-brain-cells' type of novels … though some of those romance novels actually killed your brain cells.
