83 Mountain Glory smiled at him. "Sorry, pet,"
she grinned, "I'm taken! Gotta be back in a couple of hours. Keep
trying.. You'll find somebody!"
84 The young man shrugged. "Lucky guy!" he laughed. "Give him my
regards!" As he walked down the street the young fighting man glanced
over his shoulder. '"That' s got to be some Warlock's joy!" he said,
just loud enough for Mountain Glory to hear. She smiled a little as
she walked down the street.
85 She saw a gorgeous looking dress in a window, but wondered what kept
it on! An older woman standing in the doorway laughed. ''I've been
watching you come down the street," she remarked, "you must be a
country girl."
86 "Village born and raised," agreed Mountain Glory.
87 "What are you looking for, dear?” the woman asked.
88 "Something that will impress a man," answered Mountain Glory,
"that's very hard to impress!"
89 The woman looked at her in disbelief. "Sweet child," she remarked
"if what you've got already doesn't impress him, he’s either blind, or
in a coma, or too old to care! But come on in. I think we can make you
more noticeable. Get back there in the dressing room and get that
uniform off. I suppose you've got nothing on under it but military
issue, right?"
90 Mountain Glory nodded. "From the bottom, up!" the woman continued.
In a few minutes she had her dressed in silky underthings and
stockings. "Well, what's underneath," the woman laughed, "should take
his breath away!"
91 The first two dresses she brought in were either cut too low or too
high, but the third and fourth ones seemed to hang just right. As Mountain Glory stepped back and
adjusted it on her shoulder a bit, the woman stared at the birthmark on
her chest.
