My apologies. I intended to goose today's chapters to post this morning, but I got involved with writing a new story that a character named Mishka started whispering in my ear. The new story isn't in anyone's universe, and I've yet to decide about creating one of my own. Chapters 11 & 12 should upload shortly. I'll try to do better in the morning with Chapters 13 & 14.
Sooo.
In chapter 13, Pēteris stages a fight with his two Companions, and to all appearances, takes up with Maggie. Those appearances include some very vocal orgasms in the night. Maggie is pleased.
In chapter 14, Maggie is still happy. Miriam creates Stumpy with her sword, and Robyn meets Hastert face-to-face. He takes her bait, and Pēteris' plan is well under way.
