your
strength—to hold up your boobs."
    She punched him in the arm.
    "I'm kidding. They're nice and perky."
    She cocked her fist for another wallop.
    He held up his hands. "Enough. I'm sorry.
But, hey—I think it worked. You seem more relaxed now."
    Rebecca grinned.
    "Eat."
     
     

CHAPTER 19 - Tuesday, 2:18 p.m.
     
    Joey Ketrousie sat behind his desk, puffing
on his cigar. "What's your name, Honey?"
    "Heather Dreslaw," said Rebecca.
    "How old are you, Heather?"
    "Twenty-five." She could
still hear her father's words: To be a
private investigator, sometimes you have to lie . Good thing she had listened and learned, because right now
she was lying her butt off.
    "I don't think so. And that's my cutoff. I'm
very strict about it. There's a reason the ad specifies a range of
21 to 25. Men come here to see tight, young bodies. And while
they're here, they spend a lot of money. I can't afford to
disappoint my customers."
    Rebecca felt the sudden urge to leap over
his desk, cram the cigar down his throat, and beat his face to a
bloody pulp.
    Bobby chimed in. "Give her a chance, Boss.
She's got a killer body."
    "You think?" said Joey. "Let's get a better
look." He grinned at Rebecca. "Well?"
    Rebecca thought she had prepared herself for
this moment. But as she unbuttoned her blouse and took it off, and
unhooked her bra, she wished she was somewhere else. Anywhere
else.
    "Very nice. Huh, Boss?"
    "Hmm. Pretty good boobs," said Joey, blowing
a ring of smoke into the air. "Now let's see the rest of the
package."
    Rebecca reluctantly unzipped her mini-skirt
and let it drop to the floor.
    "Panties too," said Joey.
    What the hell was she doing? Rebecca didn't
have to put up with this shit. But if she couldn't handle getting
naked in front of two men, how was she going to walk around in
front of all those men in the café wearing nothing but a tiny
thong? She took off her panties fast—before she could talk herself
out of it.
    Joey smiled. "Give me the 360."
    She gritted her teeth and slowly rotated.
Halfway around, she wanted to bend over, tell him to kiss her ass,
and get the hell out of there. But she had already humiliated
herself. She had to stick with the plan.
    "Okay, you know what? I
don't care whether you're really twenty-five or not. Hell, with
that body, I don't care if you're forty-five . You're hired,
Baby."
    Rebecca put her clothes back on, and Bobby
sent her down the hall to fill out some papers and get a badge. He
watched her until she was inside the security office.
    Bobby walked back inside Joey's office and
closed the door.
    "That girl looks sort of familiar," said
Joey. "But I can't place her."
    "You don't think she's a cop, do you,
Boss?"
    "Didn't you check her out?"
    "Well, yeah. We ran the usual background
check on her. Like we always do. But we couldn't find a Heather
Dreslaw."
    "Go down there and tell her I changed my
mind, and kick her ass out of here."
    "Oh, come on, Joey. Give her a chance. I
really don't think she's a cop. But even if she is, it doesn't
matter. We're not doing anything illegal here."
    "Oh, I get it. You old son of a bitch.
You've got the hots for that babe."
    "No...well..."
    "Okay, look. I'll keep her on for a couple
of nights. But if you haven't banged her by then, you're out of
luck. And she's your responsibility. So, keep a close eye on
her."
    "Oh, I will, Boss."
    "I don't doubt it. How long since you got a
piece, Bobby?"
    "I don't kiss and tell."
    "That's because you ain't got nothing to
tell. Believe me, Bob-o, if you were hitting it every night like I
am—"
    "—I know, Boss. You're a stud."
    "One hell of a stud." He leaned back in
his chair and puffed on his cigar.
    **********
    Gabby pulled over, and Rebecca got into the
car.
    He said, "Well?"
    "I got the job."
    "Congratulations. I knew you could do it.
Did he make you take off your bra?"
    "Just drive."
    Gabby drove away from the curb. "So, you
start tonight?"
    "Start and finish . It's a one-shot deal. One
night is all I can stand. I
