Varick Street

I now went west on Tarn Court.
In a few Ehn I had come to the rendezvous point, on Varick, west of Aulus, which I had arranged with Lavinia. I waited there, near the doorways. She would not be loitering in the vicinity, of course, as that would attract attention. She would, rather, pass this point at certain intervals, in one direction or another. She may have passed it once or twice already. I would then, in the concealment of one of the doorways, put her in the small cloak she had worn before, now folded in my wallet, and we would then make our way home.  MAGICIANS OF GOR-, (25) Page 395

Shortly thereafter I became aware of a presence behind me. I turned. There was a guardsmen there, a regular, not an auxiliary. I had never seen him before. He did not seem angry. I lifted Lavinia upward. "Ai!" I said, softly. I then put her to her feet in the doorway. She kissed at my arm, and kept her arms about me. Surely she was aware of the observer, as well. "Do you not know enough to kneel in the presence of a free man?" I asked her. Quickly she removed her arms from my body, smoothed down her tunic, and knelt, properly, in the doorway.
"Does the whip master know where you are?" asked the guardsmen of Lavinia.
"No, Master," she said.
"You are pretty," he said.
"Thank you, Master," she said.
"These state sluts are all the same, " said the guardsmen.
"Oh?" I said.
"I liked it better when they were belled," he said.
"That was nice," I said.
"It made it easier to keep track of them, in alleys, in doorways, and such."
"Doubtless," I granted.
He looked at Lavinia, who lowered her head.
"I suspect it is lonely for them, in their chains, at night," he said.
"I suspect so," I said.
"She has duties," he said. "Do not stay here long."
"We shall be gone in a moment," I said.
He then turned about and went south on Varick.
Lavinia was trembling.  MAGICIANS OF GOR-, (25) Page 398
