"Elsie Alston's running feet hit the grass like pale secrets. During daylight hours she could usually be persuaded to wear shoes, but the day was fading and Elsie had unfastened everything of herself that could be unfastened. Shoes, stockings. Corset strings. The locks of her dark hair, which fell to the small of her back and bounced as she ran. She enjoyed the sensation of it tugging against her scalp, and Cheetham Hall enjoyed her enjoyment where it sang through the soles of her feet."-A Power Unbound by Freya Marske

That sounds like a lot of fun, but I know things are going to go wrong sometime, and probably soon! But I must read more now! What about you guys? Happy reading!
