That wasn't until the morning. The room was empty except for the gag and Ani, so there was no way for her to avoid another shock if she didn't comply... with her temporary owner's wishes. She turned the gag around so it appeared to be the right way up, and reluctantly slid it into her mouth. As soon as she took her hand off it, two straps extruded from it, wrapping around her face until they met behind her head. They bonded to each other and tightened, plunging the gag further into her mouth. . It was worth seeing Sara happy, even if she was embarrassed of her worthless boyfriend. With that we hopped into my leased car and I took them back to their place, which wasn’t as bad looking as I thought it would be. She invited me in with a knowing look in her eye. I accepted, hung around for about an hour chatting with them as she was fawning about the apartment. Had some beer and bonded a little. Finally I told them I had to be going in less than an hour, I think she was disappointed I. Therewere short, flirty and girlish pleated skirts in fashionable checks. Afew casual denim skirts were the only concession to comfort that Icould see. Then there were the blouses, again in the same dazzlingarray: business blouses, delicately and low-buttoned in satin, moreflirtatious ones in opaque lace, gypsy style ones meant for the summerthat showed the midriff. There was so much! This woman?s wardrobe musthave cost more to maintain each month than I made in a year!Then I turned, hands. I left the girl with Tony, so she's safe. If anyone deserves to be saved by the technology here then its Tom. He really did save a damsel in distress." Well now he's here he will have to go with you to rescue a damsel as a hero's companion. What skills has he that will keep him safe?" Meria asked."None that I know of. He's pretty good with a bow, but the first brawl in an inn, or the first bandits that attack us on the road I'm afraid he's going to be toast. We're going to have to give him some.
