She hadn't been in contact with Gerdi for a good while, but certainly hadn't prepared herself for this. With an effort, the young woman set her face in a mask of confidence.<br/><br/>"No," she trilled, "I'm certain you'd remember. It's Felice and this is my friend, Ezra. We are here to see Miss Gerdi as you guessed, but I afraid we don't have an appointment."<br/><br/>She shifted slightly, trying to casually look beyond the man's muscle-bound frame and into the hall beyond.<br/><br/>"Is she in?" Felice wondered, "If not we can always wait in the drawing room, until she gets back."<br/>
