Karyn Meets with Approval

"Spying is not a good thing, Karyn. Mistress is very upset with you," Jon said. "What? Jon, what are you talking about? What mistress?" "This will be easier if you don't struggle, Karyn." He pulled her inside. The woman known only as Mistress looked her over as if she were a piece of meat. "Another stubborn female. The stubborn ones are so hard to work with," she said. She moved over to Jon's side. "Jon...she is not your friend. She wants to take you away from me, doesn't she?" "Is that true, Karyn?" "Jon...you aren't yourself," Karyn insisted. "She's done something to you." Mistress caressed Jon's face gently. "I've done nothing except offer Jon my love," she said. Jon looked at Karyn. "Why can't you be happy for us?" He insisted. "Jon...don't you see..." Mistress moved to touch Karyn's shoulder and suddenly she couldn't move. That freed up Jon for the woman to wrap her arms around him and plant a kiss on his lips. She then released him, looking at Karyn coldly. "Take her upstairs. Put her in a different bedroom than the others."
