Similarly, in the bathroom, the ventilation ducts were far too narrow to contemplate their use as a means of escape. It would have to be the door! If ...he could surprise the maids bringing a meal, she might be able to get out of the door and lock it behind her. She might have a chance of finding a way out before they were able to raise the alarm. It was a slim chance, but she had no alternative. Unseen eyes watched Emma all the time. ‘She’s plotting something,’ said Yasmin. ‘I’m certain of it!’. "I'm sorry," said Arrian, embarrassed. "I have been rude. This is Larelle... I assume. I've never actually met her before, but I recognize her voice and the delightful way that she calls me 'Master'. It is good to finally meet you, my friend."Larelle bowed slightly to him with respect. Arrian saw the look of confusion on our faces."I have never met her before because, until today, she has been a book. She is the one that formed the portal that brought us here. It linked with something here to. . well... you see... ," Rock said not knowing how to say what he wanted to say. He stopped trying and just looked at Barbara."I don't quite understand," Barbara said in an attempt to prompt him to get to the point."You're a woman," Rock said grabbing onto something factual."Yes, I am," Barbara answered wondering if he was trying to ask her out on a date.

Once the contract is signed, we can set something up. No. Once I sign there's no reason for you to keep your end of the deal. Plus you still have the ability to screw me over if you decide to tell my wife. So if we do this, then I'm going all in. I get to fuck you right here and now. After that we can.
