Cutting his throat is only a momentary pleasure and is bound to get you
talked about. ~ Robert Heinlein
After closing his medical clinic for the night, Cazador had settled down at
his favorite corner table in his brother’s roadhouse for a well-deserved beer.
The big barroom was warm against the increasing chill of an Alaskan
autumn, and the lingering aromas from the restaurant section made him
wish he’d gotten here earlier. Bull and his chefs were great cooks.
Even nicer, Caz’d found a gorgeous woman to join him. He smiled at
the pretty brunette sitting at his table. Conversation, a good beer, probably
some fun to be had later. The perfect prescription for contentment. Fleeting,
but that was the way Caz wanted it. No complications, no entanglements,
no relationship.
“Please step out of my way.” A young man’s voice rose above the noise
in the busy barroom.
Caz turned.
Felix, one of the waiters, was being harassed by two dumbasses. From
the stink, they were probably fishermen.
“Look at the pretty boy. I think you should go back to San Francisco or
whatever faggot place you came from.” The big bald drunk gripped Felix’s
glittery purple shirt and gave him a shove.
Felix stumbled back a step.
The bearded, potbellied man followed and grabbed a beer off Felix’s
tray. “Thanks, pretty boy. Appreciate it.”
Felix glanced at the bar, but Caz’s brother Bull wasn’t there. Probably in
the back getting supplies for the bar.
Caz scowled. His shit list was short, but bigots and bullies were near the
top. Besides, his brother considered his employees as extended family—
which made them Caz’s too.
Rising, he patted the hand of the lovely brunette. “Excuse me, please.
I’ll be back in a minute.”
He didn’t wait for her reply. Joining Felix, he smiled politely at the two
bullies. “Leave the wait staff alone, please.”
Baldy leaned forward, mud-brown eyes squinting in anger. “Butt out,
beaner. What? Are we bothering your boyfriend?”
At a nearby table, Zappa from the gas station gave a loud snort. “Dude,
what’ve you been smoking? The doc there goes through women like a bear
through blueberries. You should be so lucky.”
Unfortunately, dumb went hand-in-hand with prejudice, and the bigots
weren’t about to see reason.
He’d give it one more try. “Gentlemen, if you harass the wait staff,
you’ll get kicked out. Just a warning.”
“I don’t listen to spics. Get outta here.” Baldy rammed his hand into
Caz’s shoulder, pushing him back a step.
There—Baldy’d made the first move. Having a brother who was Chief
of Police meant Caz usually made a token effort to behave.
He let himself stagger back a step. Then—accidentally, of course—he
bumped Felix’s tray hard enough to knock the drinks onto the bullies.
As they roared in wet outrage, Caz swung Felix out of the kill zone.
“Go get Bull, sí?” That would get the young man out of danger.
