I like people thinking that I've got to give up. It makes them sloppy.
Benito's got the police department under his thumb so I don't call it in. Instead, I headed straight for the address Moore had scribbled on the back of his card before leaving. There was a safe there, just no combination.
A pair of goons burst through the door. Wonderful. I socked the first in the guts, but the second nearly got me. That's when Alyssa walked in, clubbing him with the butt of her pistol.
"Shit. You're Pandora."
"Yeah. Just a pity you had to find out, Max. Still, you won't do anything. I know you'd never touch a lady."
She walked towards me, taking her time. As soon as she's close enough, I pop her one in the jaw and she folds.
"Ma'am, you ain't no lady."
I turned back to the safe.
