Giving Valerios a tour of the other parts of the tower, Andrea replied as they walked from room to room, "I leave the tower quite regularly, and so does Lady Shawn. We have to look out for potential candidates to take the test, although that is no longer necessary. At least, not until the mistress is in the mood for one more man in the tower."

She slipped one hand under the handmaiden's tunic, gently testing her to see how ticklish she was. A loud "EEEK!" was heard when the torturess dug her fingers into the soft skin of her tummy. With a smirk, Meira ripped the tunic off, exposing the woman's naked upper body and at the same time shoving her to the floor.
