The man was fast asleep his namaw and sharp eyes hat closed
Maya Pennyfeather struggled to get up from the bed Her back curved to a gcnful arc, visible and
hidden under her long hair She was just about to pick up her clothes from the floor when a cold we
came from behind her
How much money do you want?”
There was no emotion in his voice. The passion and list hom last nights drunkenness had faded
Maja band paused in the act of grabbing her clothes. The funny thing was she had been maned to this
