"Honey, it's for you. Some guy named Chuck."Chuck had been discharged and was back in town. He wanted to know if I could meet him at Riley's Tavern to...suck down a few beers and catch up on what had gone on since he left town."The major thing that happened is that I'm now a married man." It goes without saying that she is invited too. Only fair since I'll be there with my bride."On the way to Riley's I explained to Merrily who Chuck was and what our history was. Chuck was sitting in a booth in. "Well, not really. Ken told me what this week's whispering is about, but he didn't go into any detail." Betty Lou," Amy Sue said softly. When I nodded, she continued, "It's true, I guess. Betty Lou didn't come with me to our cousins. When I got back home yesterday, she asked me to leave her alone. She hasn't left the room since, not even for dinner last night. I talked to her a bit last night. She's having trouble dealing with what she did. And she's worried about Bobby and his reaction,. She had a day off from her duties at the precinct and I worked a night shift at the Exotic Dragon Gentlemen's Club as a premier pole dancer and private lap-dancing girl. Needless to say, my body was a temple and I kept it in tip-top shape to attract more customers and cash carrying followers. I never thought about the morals of my line of work because I was not one of those girls that spread their legs for money or sold actual sex for cash or favors. I had a strict rule about not kissing any. Tani's mouth curved into a snarl and she began to speak, "I tried to put an end to you once you filthy, ugly machine and I failed. I won't repeat that mistake. My smile of victory is the last thing you will ever fucking see you abomination."Tani's tentacles sprang into action crawling up her sheath and wrapping around the six-inch long and two inch diameter plastic capsule that Tes had implanted in her womb. The tentacles twisted the upper and lower halves ninety degrees in opposite directions.
