| 29 | 54 | What could a woman be to such a man but a slave? What such men do to us! How they treat us! How they own us! How on Earth I had dreamed of such men, and now I was on Gor, where they were abundant, helpless, in a collar! But how was it that he had come to the apartment of Bruno of Torcadino? Had Bruno of Torcadino, to assuage my needs, as one might see to the feeding and watering of a hungering and thirsting animal, and not wishing to bother with the matter himself, merely accosted a stranger on the street, and referred him to his apartment? Surely that seemed unlikely. |
| 29 | 55 | And far more unlikely yet that such a stranger would be Addison Steele, who on Earth, as I understood it, contemptuous and displeased with me, had first called me to the attention of Gorean slavers, a possibly suitable prospect for the sales block. |
| 29 | 56 | For what else might I have been any good? So what then might be the connection or relationship between Bruno of Torcadino and Addison Steele? It did not seem to me that there could be such a connection or relationship, but yet it must somehow exist. |
| 29 | 57 | I recalled the miseries and tortures to which Addison Steele had brought me, the tunic of fire and the noxious fumes of burning powders. |
| 29 | 58 | Why had he done so? Cared he nothing for me? How pleased I was that I had revealed nothing of the former Lady Julia Leta to my captors! How dishonorable he must be to have subjected an innocent, helpless slave to so frightening and painful an interrogation. |
| 29 | 59 | And how disappointed I had been with him, and how ashamed I had been for him, when I had discovered he was involved with the hateful Dorna of Tharna, and perhaps another, in a clandestine scheme to seize the former Lady Julia Leta of Ar and return her, doubtless for some reward, to a stern, vindictive justice far beyond her deserts. |
| 29 | 60 | It seemed so cruel and uncalled for. |
