No, I was here to procure\u003cbr\u003e something. A single piece of evidence that may be enough to crush his entire\u003cbr\u003e umpire. A picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eJust one simple picture and\u003cbr\u003e we'll have fifty grand in our pockets. My pocket. But James probably deserved\u003cbr\u003e something around twenty percent of that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eI didn't want to work as a\u003cbr\u003e private detective. I was neither born nor raised in it like a lot of men in the\u003cbr\u003e profession, nor was I trained for it. Not many women became private detectives.\u003cbr\u003e It was the sort of work that just didn't appeal to little girls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eSomewhere along the line, I\u003cbr\u003e made all the right choices, or rather, all the wrong choices to bring me down\u003cbr\u003e that career path. Maybe I should have made a different choice way back then. Or\u003cbr\u003e maybe I should just choose another career. I was young enough to go to college\u003cbr\u003e and get a degree. But times were tough and the work paid well. James said I had\u003cbr\u003e the knack for the work. I had the patience, the stealth, and the guts. I also\u003cbr\u003e had the luck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eI focused my attention back\u003cbr\u003e to the task at hand as I walked out of the shadows. This part of the house was\u003cbr\u003e brightly lit, but I should be alright as long as I didn't run into anybody. I\u003cbr\u003e wasn't dressed anywhere near fancily enough to be a houseguest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eJust as I suspected, there\u003cbr\u003e was nobody else roaming the mansion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eDamon wanted to keep whatever\u003cbr\u003e it was that they were doing in the dungeon entirely private. And that was what\u003cbr\u003e I was here for. The risk was high, but the reward meant we would have enough to\u003cbr\u003e finally get that vacation I was promised when I first started the partnership\u003cbr\u003e with James. We were a two-man army. Well, a one man, one woman army, but close\u003cbr\u003e enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe weren't told how risky the\u003cbr\u003e job was when we first took it. That came later. The initial job description was\u003cbr\u003e vague:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eFind something we can use\u003cbr\u003e against Damon Hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eI smiled when I was first told that. It was easy to find something against a virile young man. Or so I thought. James said it was reckless to take a job just because it 'looked easy'. I should've listened to him.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boruma Publishing, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47173099618544,"sku":"9781370880201","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781370880201_p0.jpg?v=1763711606","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781370880201","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
