“Uh, no, thank you. I mean, I’d love to, but my friends and I are…busy, and we just don’t have the time. But next time I come by, I’m totally all yours.”

He buys it. How or why, I have no fucking clue. Nor do I care.

But he finally stops looking at my tits and walks away. That’s good enough for me.

At this point, I’d like to say that this is all Lock’s fault. All of it.

Couldn’t just answer my questions could you Lock? No, you had to be a smartass. ‘Oh, you’re a smart girl. You’ll figure it out.’

Fucking asshole.

So here I am, walking down these stairs behind Liam, Becky, and Mysti, expecting to see this smoky, seedy, smelly, and outright trashy den filled with old Thai men missing teeth.

Boy, was I fucking wrong.

This underground gambling den is swanky and ritzy like a five-star resort.

I almost feel as though I stepped through some magic portal that took me straight from Bangkok to Vegas.

There are slot machines with little golden cat statues on top of them. Blackjack tables with dealers who look like theyhaveactually worked in Vegas or in Atlantic City. There’s a handful of poker tables that seem really familiar.

And I meanreallyfamiliar.

They’ve got craps tables. Roulette tables.

They have everything to rival any hotel casino I’ve ever seen.

There are even waitresses walking around in tiny, sexy outfits that leave nothing to the imagination, the girls looking like they came from the Thailand version of Playboy.

And the bar?

It looks like the fucking Pearly Gates right now.

Now I’m getting flashbacks from the Vegas adventure.

“Ooohhhh, babe. Let’s go play slots.” Becky’s eyes look as though they are going to pop out of her head. That is, if her smile doesn’t completely consume her face first.

And Liam is looking just as excited as she is. “You know I’m good for some slots.”

The two of them don’t even wave goodbye or turn around to tell me that they’re going. They just run off like two kids in a candy store.

So much for them of being of any further use.

“Look how amazing this place is. And can I take advantage of any of this? No, because I’m fucking cursed.”

And here we go.

“I bet I could go sit down at that poker table right now and get the best hand ever and still lose,” Mysti whines. “Why? Because I’m cursed. I’d likely have to fork over my kidney or liver just to cover how big my loss would be.”

I’ll admit. I’m really wishing murder wasn’t a crime in Bangkok right now.

“Well, what if you watch Liam and Becky play? Maybe your curse will rub off on them and then they’ll be stuck with it?”

“That’s not how curses work, Sammi.” She stomps her foot and is crossing her arms over her chest like she’s twelve. “But I’m gonna go try anyway.”

Well, that officially makes Mysti a problem for Liam and Becky now.

“Alright, Sammi, time to use that giant, beautiful brain of yours, girl.” Percy has gone into pep talk mode now.
