Something clicked in my brain and a lot of unexplained details suddenly started making sense. Her sudden interest in folk art. The abrupt hang-ups lately whenever I walked into the room. The "Shanker's Paradise" tattoo on her cunt. How could I ever have been so stupid?
I had to face it: I'd been beaten at my own game. All I could do was tip my hat to her. It'd been a world-class performance. But getting collared by Shanker...that was going to stick in my craw for a long time.
I let the tard drop to the floor and put my hands behind my head.
