I caught myself wondering about Harlow while I looked through the file for a new PI case. Though, could it be considered new? Don't get me wrong, cheating spouses were a dime a dozen around the area. With Seattle close by, major corporation presidents enjoyed putting their dicks where they didn't belong, and I enjoyed the easy paydays from their disgruntled wives. Phobos also made a killing off the therapy the wives would eventually end up in as well.

Of course, we weren’t always pricks about it. Some of the wives were truly and utterly devastated when the facts were presented to them. Some of the women had been with their husbands since they started as shitter cleaners and climbed the corporate ladder to the hundred and tenth floor. Those were the cases I hated the most.

"I swear I have counted this three times," Eris grumble caught my attention. "You've been shorted at least five grand over the last six months if my calculations are correct."

I trusted her. She never stirred me wrong. “How much exactly did we lose Friday night?”

“About twelve hundred, like you said when you talk to Harlow.” Before this shit, Chad always gave a cut of the house to the winner along with a part of the pool. It allowed for equal competition within The Arena. It’d also been why I stayed. I could make a cool five grand a weekend with one fight depending on who I was fighting and the hype for the rest of the card. “Three weeks ago, it was a little under six hundred dollars.” She pushed the ledger away and huffed. “I’m also probably lowballing everything too.”

There was that. "Did you take my winnings from a year ago and compare?" Even though I didn't fight as often as I once did, my winnings were steady. If I won five grand at the beginning of the month, I should make as much at the end of the month. Simple math. However, there were occasionally times when I made more. Those were the anomaly months as I liked to call them, and we never counted the payment then due to the fact it might not happen ever again.

“Yeah,” she said in an irritated tone. “Out of the last year, three of those months were anomaly months. You made ten thousand dollars for those fights. The rest was an average of between five and six grand. This year, of the twenty-two matches you’ve fought, at least seven of them have been below average. The difference in amounts is anywhere between five hundred and fifty and twelve hundred dollars.”

The ten-thousand-dollar fights were ranked matches between myself and some professional fighters, bringing the kitty to a high I’d never seen before. When it was all said and done, The Arena made almost three-quarters of a million dollars in one night. “You say twelve hundred for the last fight?”

Eris nodded and pushed her long curly brown hair out of her face. “Yeah. We’re not hurting for money, but this.
