What Occurred in the Street; What Occurred Later, in an Alcove I followed the gentle movement of the rope on my neck, which rope, over the sheet, by my left side, went back to the throat of the girl behind me. |

"We are returning her to the chains of an alcove". |
10 |
| 6 | 266 |
I moved my leg, pulling on it a little, and gauged that its chain was fastened to the wall to the left of the alcove as it would be entered. |
10 |
| 6 | 269 |
The thieves who had taken me had assured themselves that I would remain in the alcove, secure from being carried away, hooded and bound, as I might be, by another. |
10 |
| 6 | 285 |
Someone entered the alcove. |
10 |
| 6 | 287 |
At this point, from outside, presumably from within another alcove, I heard a woman cry out with misery, and then I heard, again and again, the fall of a lash. |
10 |
| 6 | 299 |
I blinked my eyes against the feeble light, from the small lamp in the alcove. |
10 |
| 6 | 304 |
I had some sense of the alcove, the depth of the furs, the leather curtain, the tiny lamp in its niche, to the left as one would enter, chains, manacles and shackles, strands of leather, a coil of rope, a whip, a switch, such things. |
10 |
| 6 | 305 |
Paga girls, I knew, could be ordered to such an alcove. |
10 |
| 6 | 308 |
I saw a flash of silk and a lithe, collared beauty, bearing a goblet, moved past the opening of the alcove, and, having approached one of the tables, knelt before it, and, her head down between her extended arms, proffered the goblet to a fellow sitting cross-legged at the table, who took the cup, s... |
10 |
| 6 | 311 |
The fellow in the alcove had not moved. |
10 |

Who knows? When a girl is ordered from the floor to an alcove she may find herself in the arms of one who may later prove to be her master. |
10 |
| 10 | 115 |
I saw one fellow, with a string, tie the hands of a girl behind her, and gesture her to the alcove in which she was to await him while he finished his conversation, and his meal and drink. |
10 |
| 10 | 249 |
I did not think it likely that my hands would be tied behind my back and I would be ordered to an alcove. |
10 |
| 11 | 534 |
Then you will crawl to whatever alcove I designate". |
10 |
| 11 | 579 |
Shortly thereafter I rose, stiffly, drew on the tunic, and left the alcove. |
10 |
| 12 | 15 |
But little did he know how perfectly I was in my collar! Surely that became clear enough in the alcove! How amused he had been to see that the proud, vain, pretentious Margaret Henderson he had so properly disdained, if not despised, on Earth was now no more than a groveling, needful Gorean slave. |
10 |
| 12 | 122 |
"I will conduct you momentarily to a designated alcove," he said. |
10 |
| 12 | 125 |
"Most do not know my name," I said, "even when they bind and alcove me. |
10 |
| 12 | 132 |
I remembered the alcove in the cheap, low tavern, the sordid Whip and Chain, on the Thieves' Way South. |
10 |
| 12 | 137 |
"I will conduct you to the designated alcove," he said. |
10 |
| 13 | 1 |
I am Interviewed I knelt in the alcove, waiting. |
10 |
| 13 | 4 |
What then might masters wish, in such a place and at such a time? The leather curtains of the alcove had been drawn shut. |
10 |
| 13 | 5 |
I supposed that some sign or token had been placed on the curtains, on the outside, to indicate that the alcove was temporarily unavailable to the public. |
10 |
| 13 | 6 |
On the inside of the curtains there are fastenings by means of which the alcove, once entered, may be secured, the curtains tied shut, this protecting the privacy of its occupants. |
10 |
| 13 | 7 |
The taverner's deputy had chained my left ankle to a wall ring in the alcove before taking his leave, closing the curtains. |
10 |
| 13 | 29 |
I sensed a movement outside the alcove, and suddenly I heard the leather curtains parted, sharply, quickly, and, a moment later, I knew that I was no longer alone. |
10 |
| 13 | 283 |
A moment or two later I heard the leather straps closing the alcove being undone. |
10 |
| 13 | 285 |
And then I knew I was alone in the alcove. |
10 |
| 13 | 286 |
A few moments later the taverner's deputy entered the alcove. |
10 |
| 14 | 32 |
I still could not understand why my interlocutor in the alcove, when I had knelt before him, chained and hooded, had charged me as he had, with the task of being alert to possible anomalies or jeopardies which might pertain to Adraste. |
10 |
| 14 | 65 |
Had she been companioned, it seemed certain that my interlocutor in the alcove would have mentioned this. |
10 |
| 14 | 113 |
Under the circumstances I did not think that my interlocutor in the alcove, or his mysterious principal, would object. |
10 |
| 14 | 205 |
I supposed, given my interview in the alcove, there must have been a Lady Julia Leta, but I did not think Adraste was she. |
10 |
| 14 | 207 |
My interlocutor in the alcove had been mistaken. |
10 |
| 17 | 159 |
Indeed, I had heard that name again, during my interview in the alcove, when I, hooded and chained, had knelt before an interlocutor whose identity had been concealed from me. |
10 |
| 18 | 55 |
A girl is seldom bound and sent to an alcove when there is more than one man at a table. |
10 |

At the paga vat I heard a slave in Alcove Seven cry out with ecstasy. |
10 |
| 20 | 106 |
Had he recalled my spasmodic surrenders in the Whip and Chain and thought to amuse himself once more with my body, that of a helpless slave in his hands? But if he wished to do so, it would be much easier to avail himself of me at the Golden Chain, in a comfortable alcove where I might, stripped to ... |
10 |

Who was this supposed Lady Felitia Thaliana, of Besnit? Did she exist? What of the Lady Julia Leta, of Ar? I was sure she existed, both from my interview in the alcove, when I was hooded, and from Adraste herself. |
10 |
| 25 | 75 |
I recalled that I had been asked about this name during my interview in the alcove, when I had been hooded and chained. |
10 |
| 35 | 175 |
Every alcove was furnished with disciplinary devices. |
10 |
| 35 | 203 |
"It was you who addressed me in the alcove in the Golden Chain, when I knelt before you, chained and hooded!" "The hood can affect hearing," he said. |
10 |
| 39 | 69 |
Do you think you are in an alcove at the Golden Chain? Do you truly think I would be interested in allowing myself to be served by so inferior a slave and slut as you, only another worthless Golden-Chain girl?" I struggled to my feet, keeping my mouth open, widely. |
10 |

Our girls were often thonged and sent to an alcove. |
10 |
| 40 | 343 |
When I had been chained and hooded in an alcove of the Golden Chain, he had informed me that Adraste was a peculating thief, the former Lady Julia Leta of Ar, sought by the justice of Ar, and had enlisted me in a project to spy upon her, and alert Ho-Tosk to any unusual or suspicious behaviors, inqu... |

No one had recently bound my hands behind my back and sent me to an alcove, to await his pleasure. |
10 |
| 46 | 136 |
There was a stir amongst the tables, and I noted that an alcove had opened up. |
10 |
| 46 | 142 |
Yet might he not want me? Might he not thong my hands behind me and command me to an alcove, where I would kneel, head down, bound, awaiting him? I knew that every bit of me was his. |
10 |
| 46 | 198 |
Another alcove opened up, and a taverner's man, he governing the ostraca, called out a number, and another fellow, clutching an ostracon, rushed forward, losing no time in delivering it to the taverner's man. |
10 |
| 46 | 200 |
He then pointed to the now-opened alcove. |
10 |
| 46 | 202 |
The slave hurried to the alcove and knelt within it, head down. |
10 |
| 46 | 321 |
"Not one alcove is free". |
10 |
| 46 | 462 |
But her alcove skills, as doubtless some of you know, are considerable". |
