Hey all...I'm still at work :( It has been a mad house here today. No chance to breathe, let alone post. I will try and get something up tonight...<br/><br/>But for the sake of moving things forward, you can assume that on Alexei's order, Nikolai and Yelkin slipped from the room, leaving Angelique, Alexei and Baba alone together...<br/><br/>Ingrid is soaking in her bath, and has now been joined by Laprochka the borzoi, who will smell pleasantly like roses after he gets out of the bathtub and is dried off. Just remember that Irina is in the room with Ingrid as well!<br/><br/>Whew...I'll try to get to stuff tonight! I also have to finish editing a chapter of my book, and I won't get home until 8:30. Yikes!
