Halfway
They did indeed have the movie. It took me a few minutes to find it. It was a huge library of DVDs. But the next clue was in the DVD case. I grabbed it and decided I'd been there too long. I slipped out the door and headed for the back staircase.
I was literally on the staircase when I heard someone from above. "I figured out how she's getting past us! There's another set of stairs."
I dashed down to the basement, found a busy room, and read the note.
* * * *
I found the seventh clue, and there was still no hint the game was over. I had completely lost track of all sense of time, and my chest was getting stuffed with notes, but I didn't have anywhere else to put them. Then I almost got caught again.
The back staircase was wood, not carpeted, and you could hear someone walking on it. My boots made a very distinctive noise. I was descending the stairs from third to first and was almost to the kitchen when I heard people moving up from below me. If I went up, I was sure they'd hear me, so I took two more steps, being quick but quiet, and dashed into the laundry room.
I thought about trying to find my way out of the area, but so far I'd been unsuccessful.
I wasn't a big woman. And the dryer was an industrial sized dryer. I grabbed some of the linens from the basket earlier, climbed into the dryer, and pulled the door closed, most of the way, using the linens as a shield. If they got a status update now, I was in trouble, but I didn't think they'd actually look in the dryer unless they were searching intently.
They came to a stop in the hallway outside the laundry room.
"I tell you, I heard boots."
"Well, she's not here. I was sure we'd find her by now."
A minute later they were gone. But I used my time to read my next clue.
Trio near a fire.
A trio near a fire. That could mean something in the kitchen, or maybe there was a fireplace somewhere. Hell, there were fireplaces all over this place.
Or it could mean something about the furnace, but I hadn't found a furnace room.
* * * *
It took me twenty-five minutes to find the trio by the fire, and it took that long because I kept having to ditch my pursuers. In one of the sitting rooms on second floor, a domme was seated in a chair near a fire, and she had two subs seated at her feet. When I finally found her, she was using my envelope as a coaster for her drink.
"Excuse me, madam," I said. "But I believe that note is mine."
"And yet," the woman said, laying her hand on her drink. "Possession is nine tenths of the law." I eyed her hand and my note. I didn't think this was supposed to be a game of snatch the envelope from the domme.
