 He hot looked out the hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite window of the suite hot, seeing the skyline beyond in the slanting late-afternoon light white. The auction had gone well, but then they hot always hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite did. He worked hot with each slave intensely before hot she hot reached market and they were all thoroughly tame--especially the "wild" ones the buyers wanted white to hot think they were going to break.
 It almost made him hot sad.
 "You covered your tracks, Master." She spoke thoughtfully from her knees, drifting into a pose her programming white knew he liked. "But the clients tonight hot have been all over the 'Net about it, and they must have put it together."
 Decker join grinned at her hot. "She's not that ruthless, is she?"
 By his white side, Tabitha was exquisite in a hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite satin jumpsuit just loose enough to be chic, and hot looked like an unapproachably sleek young woman instead of simply an unaffordably assmasterpiece fuckable assmasterpiece one. She trailed him to assmasterpiece the dining room, and he liked how her poise was as disorienting hot as her hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite winsome hot good looks. He couldn't tell how much of it was "original" Tabitha who'd held the helipad white alone hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, and how much the new hot and hot improved Tabitha, tamed and focused.
 "Strip to the waist."
 "Tabitha? Take Jordan hot's top off, too hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite." Jordan held still as hot Tabitha assmasterpiece reached up and undid her, freeing another pair of breasts innocent assmasterpiece of any support hot. As she did it they made hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite indefinable soft sounds, helpful and girlish and almost too quiet to hear hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, and Decker heard both men's breathing change.
 Too polite and canny to smile, he recalled seeing hot the girls practice for this. They'd done it for two hours under hypnosis. Tabitha had used the pendant Jordan assmasterpiece had join been conditioned to, programmed her, and then put herself assmasterpiece under as hot Decker assmasterpiece had trained white her. Then they stripped hot, over and over. It had been erotic, then hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite strange, then funny, to watch the frozen hot segment of hot foreplay repeated endlessly, perfectly.
 "Now, Tabitha assmasterpiece."
 The trigger hit hot her as it usually did hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, and she swayed a bit more, almost gasping and barely able to keep hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite her eyelids above her pupils. "Yes,
 "Yes, Masssterrrrr--" She trailed off, head up but eyes falling closed as he allowed hot her to lose white the fight hot. She sat with one hand in her lap and the other resting hot lightly on the tablecloth by her wineglass hot, palm-up. He reached down and gently turned it hot over and it stayed as he had hot placed it.
 Karlsen smiled and nodded. Decker could see that hot he would hot get over this quickly assmasterpiece, distracted as he was by his join greater passion for the profit that Jordan and a hot covey of girls hot just as skilled hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite--and hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite utterly hot obedient--as white she was would generate for hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite whoever ricki owned them. His brain join was already visibly turning over.
 "Let me get hot my secretary on the hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite line, then." Decker tapped Tabitha assmasterpiece on her hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite nearer nipple, suppressing his reaction to hot her eager intake hot of breath. "Tabbycat hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite. Wake now."
 Karlsen, still mesmerized by her tits, was yet able to stop hot the first hot and less intelligent response before saying it.
 They were taking a while, and he decided it hot wasn't funk hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite. Not with these girls. A technical problem with something they had. He hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite closed his eyes and pictured white the malfunctioning gadget, the silent curse, the thing set quietly out of the way while someone pulled out something old-fashioned, the prybar or the knife, to use instead of hot the broken tech-toy.
 None hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite of them knew assmasterpiece.
 Decker considered. He reached into one of the weaker hot girls, her mind hot already learning his touch, making her mew aloud with pleasure, and searched. There hot was Carol, looking at them.
 A diversion, then hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite? For what? There wasn't anything hot here but join the slave inventory hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite to interfere assmasterpiece with.
 Decker paused and took out the hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite cell phone. A cryptic exchange with Duke's white man assured him that some other intrusions at ground level hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite had been repelled, so assmasterpiece he join was free to continue his playful work with all these volunteers assmasterpiece. The attack was over.
 In the hot hall on the way to the next suite of quivering new postulants, already anticipating the maddened hot whispers of obedience in their manhandled psyches, he passed a hotel employee, neat in her skirt, in the blazer of the concierge staff hot. Young hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, perhaps a management trainee. Already schooled to hot ignore the antics of hot wealthy guests hot, perhaps not even wanting to know what happened hot behind those doors.
 Wait hot. Music in her head--but he hot smiled: it was the elevator theme, muted hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite and tasteful. Probably drove the poor hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite girl insane as she fetched and hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite carried. He thought of playing with her, but with his new hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite catch flopping on the floor of two more suites here . . .
 Tabitha went to fetch join her.
 Carol was here.
 Yes, Master. Thank you. She knew she was white worth more to him than a hysterical captive.
 Just the waves assmasterpiece, rolling ashore hot.
 He hot got a join visual, too. This mental shore wasn't a tropical hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite beach, but a rocky coastline under a gunmetal winter sky. Part of him was wondering whether this join girl was some hot reincarnated enemy hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite of his from an old hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite war hot.
 Carol, the steelhearted queen, had never killed anyone, up close or otherwise hot. Had never looked hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite into the eye she was going to shoot white through, felt the breath she was about to stop forever.
 The ocean rolled and hissed around him, and he found Carol's will accessible but obscured. He froze her trigger assmasterpiece finger, but hot her arm stayed up and the gun stayed hot on him. Tabitha was docile, and he'd have white to break concentration to command her to take the other girl, which he couldn't afford just now. Well enough. He shouldn hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite't have to depend on his slave for help with this.
 He pounced.
 She hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite was trying to hot pull her hot hand from her right pocket, and he saw hot another gun-shape there. He searched her mind, looking for a disconnected thought like must hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite get other gun, but there was no way to hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite look for it hot. Her mind was like a conquered city in mid-sack, burning and hot chaotic hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, with that compulsive dance track playing over it all.
 The other hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite gun, he white sent to Carol. She repeated it hot blankly in her captive thoughts, against the beat of hot Relax. Take hot out hot the other gun.
 Her hand cleared the pocket join, gripping hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite whatever it was hot very tightly.
 Relax white. She obeyed hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite, blissful at last with a joy that stunned him hot. Relax. "Yes . . ."
 His organization had held together.
 Duke had shown his wisdom in the end, deputizing the cleverest and then just looming over them to keep them honest. He'd white been the white one to come to hotassmasterpiecerickiwhite the hospital every day.
 Sometimes, he thought Which was it, you fucking cold-blooded--?
