My phone rang and I eyed it warily. If it was a mobster, a psycho ex-boyfriend or a Protector, I wasn't available. When Mix's name flashed on the screen, I grabbed it.

"He lives," I said, smiling into the phone. "I'm finally in town after years away, but somebody's too busy living a normal human life to give me the time of day."

"Hey, I hung out with you at The Night Owl," he said. "Besides, I hear you've managed to keep yourself busy."

"You know what they say about idle hands."

"Paulette and I are going to Viper Pit tonight. Are you and Farah up for it?"

"What's Viper Pit?" I asked.

He whistled. "You really have been away. Only the hottest nightclub in the city."

"I thought that was Desert Moon."

Mix laughed. "That place was shut down two years ago after a group of Shaitans turned it into their own personal funhouse. It was like a major acid trip for everyone there that night."

"Why shut them down?" I asked. "People pay good money for that kind of experience."

"PTF didn't like it much when some of the afflicted began killing each other. They thought they were being attacked by Ghuls."

"Ouch."

"So are you in?"

I twisted my torso a little to see how my body reacted. No pain. "We'll meet you there at ten."

Farah stuck her head in the doorway. "Meet who where?"

I told her. "I don't have anything to wear to a nightclub, though. I bought practical clothes."

"Don't worry," Farah said. "You can wear one of my summer dresses."

"Thanks, Farah, but you're many, many inches shorter than me."

"And you like showing off those long, toned legs. It's perfect."

I examined my bare legs. She had a point. "Okay, but no strapless." I hated strapless.

"Deal," she said.
