Once Madeleine had a nice little snapshot of Naumov, she quickly queued up an email that she had arranged with Maksim. She sent the picture of her gagged face with the caption ‘<em>your package will be delivered on time</em>'. After a moment of thought, she sent Lila’s in a separate message captioned ‘<em>extra baggage. Suggestions</em>?’ There were a number of different ways to dispose of Lila, but having met Maksim, he might be willing to pay a little extra for a flexible girl, as well as some extra leverage over his wife.<br/><br/>She looked back to both women, their faces an identical show of fear stuffed and wrapped tightly with bandages. Naumov’s eyes glittered more in anger, but Lila was outright terrified. Madeleine could see her eyelids flickering, shuddering sobs working from her throat as she still tried to fight against the shredded leg warmer in her mouth. Unlike the sponge ball currently crammed deep into Naumov’s mouth, the leg warmer had stray fabric, which was likely tickling her throat and mouth a bit.<br/><br/>“This is where you’ll be spending the night,” she said curtly, gathering up the spandex hoods and placing them back into her handbag. They would go right back on early next morning. “How comfortable you are will depend on your behavior of course. I doubt very much you’d like to keep those gags in for the entire night. Even without them, no one will hear if you scream for help, so I may be inclined to give you a little break.” She glanced first to Madame Naumov, then to Lila, as if to let them ponder that for a bit, then got up and addressed Sergei.<br/><br/>“I think they won’t be going anywhere for tonight, but be sure to keep an eye on them from time to time.” While she was certain both women were completely helpless, they still had free hands and feet. Given enough time, one might loosen the other’s knots, and allow them to break free. A little electrical tape could fix that easily, but Madeleine didn’t have the drive to meticulously tape both women’s hands and feet…at least not yet.<br/>
