i 'm not going to admit to watching them together , making love or whatever you 'd call it , but i will say that they did it outside like the others , somewhere out in the forest that stretches from the bridge to cheboygan , and that when i 'd closed my eyes it was me who was pretending to be a mermaid getting pounded by that broad-shouldered half-wolf , twenty feet away from the spot where they dump all the grease from the deep-fryers .
