Chapter 94

• The wolf in the corner spot was Lionel. One of Emerson’s guards. He had a tablet open in front of him but liked to watch the television. He was easily distracted by sports updates. He came in every Wednesday. Three stools down from him was Marko. He was one of the staff members at Emerson’s house. There was at least one a day which told me they were the ones who gave Emerson reports about what I did at work.
• On the side facing the liquor wall was Elonso. This was his first visit, so he wasn’t on Emerson’s rotation. That made sense. Two seats from him was the female wolf. Maria? Maris?
• This was only her second visit, and she paid cash and hadn’t given me her name. I’d only heard her use it when she answered the phone.
