There was a part of Mama May that felt guilty for deceiving Purdue after he had come to her a number of times now. He obviously trusted her abilities and her advisement. Now, that was going to prove to be part of his undoing. She had warned him about being betrayed but she was sure that he would never suspect her. He would be looking in the wrong places, right over his shoulder, when the truth was that the betrayal had already happened and there was nothing he could do about it. She had helped him, certainly, but she had never sworn allegiance to him. Mama May and the Old Lady went much farther back than she and Purdue could ever go. Still, it was hard knowing that he trusted her foresight so much.
Mama May tapped her finger on the table. “So what will become of that man? What will become of David Purdue?”
“I'm sure you already know.”
Mama May nodded. “Yes. But are you certain that is the path you want to take?”
The Old Lady just smiled, and all of the wrinkles on her face smiled too.
“I am.”
