Chapter 14: On the Table

I stood up.

The chair scraped, and two hundred people stopped talking.

"Mrs. Tarrant," the dealer said, "the hand is live."

"Hold it, please."

I walked around the end of the table.

Castiglioni turned his head to follow me, amused.

Cormac stopped smiling when I was three steps away.

"Lena. Sit down."

"I made that collar," I said.

He understood a half second too late.

His hand flew to his neck, and I was faster.

I caught the clear wire under the velvet and pulled.

It came out of his ear with a small wet click.

Cormac yelped.

At the end of the wire hung a bead no bigger than a lentil, flesh-colored and warm.

I carried it back to the table in two fingers.

I set it on the green felt, in the white circle of the lamp, between Castiglioni's chips and mine.
