I still had some chafing from my indenture to Tallulah, which made it even more difficult not to view the harness on Heinrich&#8217;s torso as a sex swing. But the plan was a good plan, due in large part to its simplicity, and step one simply called for me to put aside my aversion and climb on.<\/p>\n<p>It was Svetlana&#8217;s glare that convinced me.<\/p>\n<p>And as soon as my feet and arms were secured, I began to feel better about the plan. Heinrich buttoned his shirts over me, and I felt safe and warm. His swaying gait produced a comforting rocking motion, and I could envision how after a long, hard day of villainy Svetlana might <em>grope her way crusty-eyed back to her sleep<\/em> here in Heinrich&#8217;s artificial womb. Loyal subjects of dreamland, <em>give me my crown<\/em>. For if <em>last night I slept on a feather bed<\/em>, which I didn&#8217;t, it wouldn&#8217;t have been so restful.<\/p>\n<p>I dreamt.
