Lady Helena’s predatory charm oozes off the page, love how Mallory’s sticky fingers become both her flaw and her ticket out, especially when she reaches for that last chocolate like it’s a lifeline. But sharpen their power imbalance (have Mallory’s chair creak ominously under her, let Helena’s perfume smell like something expensive and vaguely suffocating). When Helena asks ‘which type of person are you?, gut-punch us with one flash of Mallory’s past,maybe her five-year old self stealing sugar cubes from the orphanage kitchen, the first time she learned hunger could be cunning

Love the contrast between Mallory and Daisy here and they’re mad (un-sensible!) night at the club. We shall see if that will come back to bite them!

Interesting to learn more about Sir Harold’s past - hope we get to see more of him and find out more about his wife! Looking forward to seeing the interactions between Mallory and Daisy too :)

This story is pure magic—a modern fairy tale with a deliciously dark twist! I’m obsessed with Lady Helena’s glamorous, witchy vibes and how she zeroes in on Mallory’s sticky fingers like she’s casting a spell. My favorite part? The way Mallory’s innocent curiosity clashes with Lady Helena’s mysterious charm—it’s like watching a butterfly get lured into a spider’s web! You have to turn this into a comic—imagine the gothic elegance of Lady Helena’s black attire and Mallory’s wide-eyed wonder brought to life with bold, moody art. It’d be a visual feast!

I hope this message finds you well. I recently had the pleasure of reading your story "Sticky Fingers," and I wanted to take a moment to share how much I truly enjoyed it. Your storytelling is both captivating and thought-provoking, and it deeply resonated with me, adding incredible richness to the narrative.
Let me introduce myself, I'm Joseph, a professional commissioned artist with a strong passion for storytelling. Your work has sparked an artistic idea that I’d love to explore and discuss with you. If you’d be open to collaborating or learning more about this concept, I’d be thrilled to connect with you.

Loved Lady Helena’s final moment here – she’s so suave and cutting when she needs (or wants!) to be! I did also like that Mallory tried to stand up to her though, even if I feel that’s a lost cause for poor Mallory. Seems her next exciting adventures has been set up for her!

I’m not sure how I feel about Mallory and Sir Harold! He’s in such a position of trust from her and knows it even while doing this to her - but at least Mallory seems into it and has some thoughts of her own about it!

Oh I do love an awkward dinner party! I think you did a good job of showing Mallory’s unease and her mixed feelings. Lady Helena is definitely trying to push her down a certain path too!

Helga and Lady Helena really know how to whip and dress Mallory into shape! Liked the contrast with her usual working outfit to the sexy new dress Lady Helena has her wear. The little scraps of care and kindness she shows Mallory are great at showing her character - nice on the outside but quite calculating on the inside!

This was a lot of fun! I absolutely loved the end where Mallory teases the rich Italian man and sends him off. It's nice to see her having some fun at arrogant men's expenses LOL.

Just realised I hadn’t reviewed this chapter! Poor Mallory, pushed around and passed between all these powerful people who have ulterior motives for her – even Helga knows exactly where she wants her! Hope she manages to find out more about the mystery of the memory stick!

This was a really exciting chapter! I loved Mallory’s realisation that Rashid has stitched her and Simon up by dropping the memory stick into her purse. Can’t wait to see her next steps when she hopefully gets back to Norwich Manor and Lady Helena!

It was good to learn more about Prince Rashid’s home country here and the troubles going on in it. I liked how they spelled out Mallory’s role in this political image too, having her around to show a picture-perfect face for her and Rashid! It was great to meet Aunt Zara too!
