“Oh, you with more curves is an intriguing idea.” His hand at her back moved, and his fingers wrapped around her waist.

“Greedy.”

He chuckled. “Yes. I will show you art from home. The giantesses are spectacular. Muscles and curves confined in very snug clothing. Enough to take a male’s breath away.”

She snorted as they moved down the hall to his bedroom. When they were inside, he folded the sheets back and then went to get her a shirt.

He brought her a dark blue t-shirt, and she removed her shoes and looked at him. “You have already seen me naked today. Again, and I charge extra.”

He grinned. “I would pay.”

“Save it for when I am not waiting to go into a shallow coma for a few hours.”

He nodded. “Change in the bathroom, and I will be waiting to tuck you in.”

She nodded, took the shirt, and was happy it was a crew neck and not a V-neck. A V-neck would have shown way too much. As it was, the crew neck scooped below her collarbone and was way too close to her breasts.

She folded her sweats and socks carefully and carried them with her, setting them at the end of the bed. Yorwell tucked her in with a kiss on the forehead and set something on the bedside table. A soft static rumbled out, and she blinked away tears. “Thank you.”

He kissed her cheek. “No problem. I am going to be in the corner at my desk, making a few calls. I will keep my voice down, but I will be there. You can sleep. I am not letting anything happen to you.”

She sniffled and pulled a tear from the side of her nose. She set it on the table and went to sleep in the light of a bright afternoon with a giant in the corner and a white noise machine at her side. She let herself relax and hoped her body would be there when she woke.

Yorwell opened a vision portal. “Hello, Pandora. I need some clothing for my companion. She’s fixated on underwear as well.”

Pandora smiled. “We usually are. Who is your companion?”

“Lucia Danyova. The unfixed mage. Achilles gave her a body with a very sylphlike dress, and she isn’t comfortable with it. She hasn’t had a body for years, and it is difficult for her. She doesn’t know the sizes.”

Pandora blinked. “Oh, Regis told me about her and her cousin. Right. Hand me the dress, and what size are her feet?”

He passed the dress through and said, “She’s a ten. She’s a gorgeous height.”

Pandora grinned. “You would think so.”

“No one else will dare form an opinion.”

“Ah, so it’s like that.”

“It is. First, she reclaims her sanity, then she reclaims a physical form, and after, we will deal with her family.”

Pandora said softly, “A good order for things. Do you have any thoughts on decoration for her?”

“She’s linked to cellphone signals, so something with that. Oh, she has diamonds to offer in payment. I am sure she would be willing to part with them.”

She blinked. “Why are you sure?”

“They are a side effect of her crying. She’s an electrical being in a stone body made flesh. This is her result. They have been assessed and are genuine.”

He held out the container from the therapy session and then the one from the kitchen. He held back two that he wanted set for her ears. He hadn’t shaped jewellery in some time, but this would be worth the effort.

Pandora stared. “She cries diamonds?”

“Yes. I want everything she wears to have some on it. They are proof of her survival.”

Pandora nodded. “Got it. Several million dollars worth of diamonds, an elf-made dress, shoes, and underwear. I will make her a body double and get to work. Are you attending the contractor’s gala?”
