"This is Mandy and this is Alva," he said, indicating the two maids on either side of him.

Both the girls curtseyed to Gloria, and Gloria thought what a wonderful, thoughtful man David was. Two servants for her, and such nicely dressed girls too! From the tips of their tiny white caps to the toes of their high-heeled pumps, they were immaculate. And neither of them was as beautiful as Gloria, which was also the way she liked it. Not that there were many women as beautiful as her.

Jim carried the bags, and Mandy and Alva took Gloria to her room. It was light and airy and gave a view over the front lawn to the woods about a hundred yards away. To the left was the paddock and some quietly grazing horses.

"Oh, look at this," Mandy cried as she was putting Gloria's clothes away. "Oh you do have the most wonderful things."

She held up one of Gloria's short nighties and held it against her body. It had a lacy tie between the tits, and it was one of Gloria's favorites.

Gloria turned away from the window. She was going to let it pass, but she knew that if you let servants take advantage of you they could make your life miserable.

"Put that down!" she snapped. "Did I give you permission to touch my things?"

"Oh no, sorry, Miss," said Mandy and hurriedly put the nightgown away.

"Don't let it happen again!" Gloria snapped and turned back to the window. "I shall tell David about this."

"Yes, Miss," said Mandy, shame-faced.

The rest of the afternoon, however, was fun. Gloria was shown round the grounds by David, and the two of them had a wonderful conversation, one that hinted at romance to come. Gloria was very happy at dinner, and enjoyed the meal just her and David, with the obsequious servants in the background. He complimented her on her dress, her black one, bow at the neck and cut to the thigh at one side. Gloria smiled and accepted the compliment.
