ering kisses upon him. crying out
how she'd abused her poor dear
" steve"
To Stephen she was like the sun
bursting out from heavy clouds No
wonder.
She had spent the best part Of two
hours after Mildred had left her in
her rooms at the hotel in making
herself beautiful with the aYOWed
intention Of overwhelming him.
Her maid was at the moment hay
ing Mysteries i'm the servants quar-
tors while a dozen costumes, brought
ont and discarded, still lay scattered
about Pamela's dresSing-room.
stephens arms tightened about
her while his hunger fOr her salts
fed itself with her nearness. He
was emotionally crazed.
The power OF self-hypnotism he
had induced by endless hours Of
longing for her swayed him I'M
controlled.
She was herel She WAS his!
She had come to him
These we're all his thoughts.
There was no place in his mind then
Tor the memory Of his true valuation
OF her character.
TT hurt my pride so TO think Of
! anyone I loved being in jail"
she told him. Il didn't see how self
ish it was of me- Stephen darling,
but I couldn't come to you.
L couldn't stand this horrible
place: I knew I couldn't. But today
I realized in a flash that / couldn't
live any longer without you-and
here I am. Oh, We won't ever part
again, will We?
MY father is going TO get you
out OF here. Then we'll be married
quietly and 90 away for long
while Perhaps to Africa I think
it would be lovely TO fly across the
yeldts Don't you?
Il mean the high yeldts with
nothing but the blue sky over our
heads. And if there should be
lion when we come down you won't
let it eat me will you?"
She was clinging to him. laughing
and sObbing.
Stephens head was in whirl
ooh Pam. Pam. " was all he could
say in dazed, helpless sort Of way
Honey boy" she cooed. Honey
boy. I wish I could stay here with
YOU until dad comes, but 7 can't.
I've got to go. I've had the tooth
ache for days, but was too low to
care and if I don't 90 to the dentist
now I'll have to give up the time
tomorrow and want TO be with you
every minute
Stephen held her tight
III do some shopping too She
said happily. III get some khaki
things. though I think they're aw-
fully ugly, don't you? But one can't
wear anything else in Africa - it
wouldn't be safe with those Kaffirs
or whatever they're called, would
it?"
"Kafirs." Stephen mumbled.
scarce knowing what he said
Nov let me 90" Pamela begged.
oh, 1 hate to go. Steve. I hate to
leave you in this horrible place, but
it will be just a little minute longer.
III try to be back at the hotel when
you get there"
It did not occur to Stephen to
wonder how she could visit her den
list and shop all in Just a little
minute" Her descent upon him
had been too sudden and over
whelming to allow him to reason.
It was not until several minutes
after she had left him that he
realized he was experiencing an I'M
expected reaction He wished he
had asked her something about her
remark that her father was going
to get him out of Jail.
He felt completely in the dark,
trying to make sense Of Pamela's
running talk. Freedoml Marriage!
