The woman is a promiscuous female, possibly narcissistic, but definitely in high demand. she's a 'female player,' sometimes describes as a she-wolf, that 'games' men.
with his shades, the man in the story is 'playing it cool' like her games aren't getting to him or making him want to chase- unveiling himself as not being her superior and/or not the polygamous alpha male she desires. it makes him feel insecure -and like the needy one, which, if unveiled, would mean that he loses her game (and her). and so he wears his shades, even at night, to hide how he's truly feeling (which is 'shaken up'- feeling a loss of confidence by her lies, deceptions, and games- her masquerade).
it's also a posture of that of his ability to 'strike back' emotionally- don't mess with me (don't switch a blade...), because I'm tough and can strike back (you don't switch a blade on a guy in shades- especially at night, and in the 1980's).
