Really, this was just for fun. I was studying for a 'vocabulary' showing test and I thought I would make it more fun by trying to write a story with them. Extremely short.

Ian never really considered himself ruthless, but he guess he could be when it came to repugnant girls stampeding in his mansion in a group so large that he had to rescind his all of his residual meetings. When he locked himself with his old reticent butler in his office, there was a brief respite. The girls pounding at the tall oak doors repudiated his requests for them to go away and stop bothering him. Finally, when the racket stopped, he asked his butler to peek outside to see if they were gone. Immediately he wanted to retract his order. The office swarmed with lasses. The tired young man was suddenly resilient and skedaddled out of there through a window into the garden leaving the poor butler to handle the maniacs. Sadly, he was overwhelmed. Outside, he met his wife reading a book on her favorite spot. Once he hold her what was going on, she had this fire in her eyes and stomped into the office. Suddenly, all of the ladies ran our screaming their heads off. It was a grand idea. Why didn't he think of it before? He suddenly felt very sagacious. When she came back, he asked her how she accomplished the horrific feat. She just shook her head and smiled, her red hair swishing and her jade sparkling.
