Annette was behind her, rubbing her shoulders. The other painting she’d chosen was of her and Susan, caught in an embrace as they posed in front of ...he window. It was just before I joined them and lay Susan on the daybed with Annette. I just watched as my Lady danced around the pieces until she was satisfied.“You open new doors to me,” she began. “When I look at your paintings, I see things I didn’t observe during the event or pose. Remember the first time you drew my right nipple? I got so. Lead Lady Derwen and me to him," I commanded.He gestured to his men to put away their swords and I was careful to not make a move.The monster was eager to get away from the crowd and his embarrassment and overlooking Lady Derwen's attendance, the guard commander ordered his men to form up.

The bell was a bit of early 20th century firehouse technology, but the sensors and the wireless circuit was very 21st century. The kids lacked the muscle, or the tech skills to disable the bell. When it went off, it was so annoying that the cat lady was sure to notice it..
