"You have been out for three hours," Mr. Percey said, sitting politely on a beige windsor chair that sat beside the California King-sized bed, upon which Ms. Morris lay.  A smoking cigarette rest in between the thumb and index, while the other held a large pistol whose business end was pointed directly towards her chest.  Ah, her chest was confined by a beautiful Dolce&Gabbana silk tank dress of a cerulean colour, the hem hanging just above her knee, and her hair had been relieved of its pins to be allowed to roam over the silk pillow freely.  If she sat up, she might perceive that she was in the midsts of affluence;  a setting that agents of the crown quickly become accustomed to.  A large aquarium filled to the brim with large, exotic fish was the centerpiece of the room.<br/><br/>"My most sincere apologies, Ms. Morris," he said as he put the gun down on its side.  At that precise moment, an African American woman in a red skirt and high golden heels emerged from another room, holding her bare breasts in her hands.  Mr. Percey regarded her casually, and then made a small wave.  The leggy female nodded and slunk out.  A door was heard opening and then shutting shortly after her departure from the room.  This did not dour the mood of the seated agent.<br/><br/>Ms. Morris had not been tied, gagged or bound, so she was free to move about.  Or as free as she presumed under the circumstances.  But Mr. Percey had a tendency of being relatively easy-going in the presence of women, and Ms. Morris was above her peers in her femininity.  So enamored by her curves was Percey, that he sent for some entertainment to relieve the burden of her figure;  and also, a less revealing outfit so that he wouldn't feel so tortured looking over her.<br/><br/>"You will find your items in the nightstand beside your bed, but I would ask that you stay away from your pistol," he said cordially.  "I also hope that there remains an air of civility between us.  Obviously, it shall be a long night and I shouldn't want to keep you drugged for the next 48 hours.
