What a boy he was!
At twenty. she was more worldly
wise than Dick. in spite of his thirty
years and his reputation as a lawyer.
He was like wax in her hands. She
could make him utterly miserable by
refusing him a kiss. And when she
was tender he would willingly go
through fire and water for her! He
said so.
. . . When she did kiss him. she
was nemr thrilled by it. What ex-
cited her was the power that kiss
gave her over him!
Yes. Dick was mad about her. He
would give her anything she asked
for. And she was not ‘going to be
slow in asking for the things she
wanted . . . leisure. love and lux-
ury. But above all. luxury!
