CHAPTER ELEVEN

I showered and soaped off the almond oil, but that wasn’t enough. I opened all my windows, knowing I would be smelling traces of the illusionist, his blood and his sweat, for a long time. I needed to get out of there for awhile. Tamara had given me firm commands about staying off my ankle for a week, but I really was better now. I thought I would walk up to the hills. The sun was just setting, it would be light for another hour. If I took it slowly, by the time I got there the park would have emptied out, and I could change and go for a run. A short run, just see how my foreleg was doing. As I grabbed up my keys to go, there was a knock on my door.

Imposter guy was back for more? He’d forgotten something important he’d left here? Not likely. More probably my landlady was here for the rent, which I hadn’t paid on the first of the month, for the first time since I moved in. When I got closer to the door, I could tell who it was. Yvette was on my doorstep.

“You know your phone number isn’t listed? You have to let me have it.” Yvette wore her happiness with the same force with which she expressed her displeasure. “Come down to the music store and help us,” she said. “Ariadne wants to open this coming weekend, and she's got too much to do. I told her I’d get some help.”

Well, I did have days of training now, in working in a music shop, so I pocketed my keys and went with her back down toward Greenleaf. Yvette explained about Ariadne being more into classical, Western-traditional music than Madam Tamara—as if I hadn’t gathered that already—but that she was open to holding drum classes together with her current plans to teach violin, cello, viola, piano, and other music classes out of her store. Yvette talked so ardently and threw off such excitement I was certain she hadn’t noticed the two guys who fell in behind us as we came down the hill, but when we reached the alley next to the Chinese place, she turned on them.

“Well,” she said in greeting to the two big thugs we’d met before. “Got yourself cleaned up already?” And with no further hesitation she threw herself at the smaller of the two, the sly-guy, one fist launched at his face, the other hand held low. He raised his hands to protect his face, at the last second she dropped her fist and reached for his throat and bore him back into the wall of the restaurant, holding him there with the weight of her body, while her right hand went to his belly. When she touched him there he flinched back, pressing himself into the wall. Yvette, the graduate of nearly four years in juvenile hall, for a crime she did not commit, was doing fine, so all I did was prevent big henchman guy from butting in.
