Back at it again with the sequel. You've maintained the ambiguous relationship between Himba and Tom. At the same time, its clearly advanced, while he is a condemned man, his fate is in the air, while in the first story, his fate was all but certain, were it not for the miracle in the end. That's some clever plotting.

These chapters are a bit ... steamier, and I'm not sure if that's because there's more action than the first. It might be because Himba is just ever so slightly more cordial than she was in the first chapter. She seems to swing between giving Tom a good time, and humiliating him, it may be just her nature. Still, I'm kind of with Greenanon, although your response to him has me worried.

It still like good 'ol Tom. He acts the same way I would react if I were in this situation, and it seems my life was at the whims of a demon who just can't seem to understand why I would hate being condemned to such a fate. He seems to be taking a lot of L's, but hopefully, he's a comeback man.
