Zelgadiss set the book he'd brought from the library down on a small table and stretched absently once the door was closed behind him. It had been a long day, and he'd been busy fending off several less-than-welcome advances; he tended to be reasonably choosy about his partners when he was in a state to be so.

He turned around and headed back to the middle of the room, towards the bed where she was sitting. He was watching her and taking her in, not failing to notice that she was beautiful, or that she was fit, and certainly not failing to notice the bruises all over her body.
