<strong>Richard Xantelli with Maria Xantelli, pulling up to her 'home'.</strong><br/><br/>Richard growled, or tried to, again as they drove to Maria's home away from home since this was her little house of horrors...or exquisite pleasures if you had enough money of course.  Even so, a part of him WANTED to be here, and Richard didn't want to let that part of him grow any further.  He might be young, but he wasn't without honor and courage to stand up for what he believed in.  That might change soon though if Maria had a word to say about it.<br/><br/>Today was going to be a long one if he had a big enough imagination to even begin to envision what awaited him inside with Maria at the reigns.  He'd figure something out to get out of this....he hoped.  If not, Richard knew he wouldn't be leaving the same way as he got in.<br/><br/>((Feel free to go nuts Nazora.))
