“Don’t. It means you’re healing, Audrey Rose. Cherish it. Don’t condemn yourself for moving on, or for living.”
“My brand of debauchery?” “Death-defying is wonderful. Death on its own is wretched for my line of work.”
“Ah. I see I haven’t lost my charm yet. Most women I meet say the same thing, usually whilst scantily clad. Should we remove a few of those pesky layers? It’ll help clear my mind. Get me in the mood for charity.”
“Only if you’d like me to strangle you with them.”
