In order to avoid attention and to keep their husbands in the dark, the women had rented a house in
suburban Evergreen and had paid Cookie a whole lot of cash to give them lessons for the past four
months. They would have loved more time to perfect their performance, but they had to wait until
after Tashi had given birth before they started, and even then, their practice sessions were still
limited by Tashi s mom s murder trial.
 Bryce and I rocked to  Temperature s Rising and  Feel The Fire this afternoon. Kaya closed
her eyes and squeezed her thighs together as the memories washed over her. After reading those
articles in Granite Falls People News, they d decided to start making love to the songs they were
pole dancing to, just to raise the stakes and their husbands temperatures when they eventually
performed.
Michelle pulled off her stockings and retrieved a blouse and a pair of shorts from her tote bag.
 Girl, I danced under and on top of Erik to  Behind Closed Doors,  Religious, and  Temperature s
Rising this morning. Mmm&  She licked her lips.  It was so good. I had him singing Hallelujah.
Lord, have mercy. She shivered outwardly.  What about you, Tashi? she asked, turning to Tashi
who hadn t said anything yet.  Have you tried any of the songs with Adam?
Tashi glanced up from lacing her sandals.  Not yet. We ve been preoccupied with the sentencing.
At least I was.
 So you haven t been making love? Kaya pulled on a pair of white shorts and an orange top.
 Oh, we ve been making love, but I wasn t in the mood to set the mood, if you know what I mean.
A quiver raced through her body as she recalled the hot session in the shower and then on the bed
before they joined the family for dinner last night.  Maybe I ll try a couple tonight after we put Aria
and Alex to bed. She was watching Aria until Shaina and Mass returned from Kenya.
 Get working girl, Michelle said.  You have eight specific songs to get through from our list of
twelve. You want Adam to remember making love to you as he watches you make love to your pole
while those specific songs play in the background.
 Plus, remember we re starving them after we return from vacation. No sex for them until the
wedding, Kaya added.  We have to make them hungry for us that first night of our honeymoon.
 I know. Tashi picked up her gym bag from the floor.
Like high school BFFs, the ladies laced their arms around each other and exited the house through
the back door where three luxury sport cars were parked next to each other Michelle s red Pagani
Huayra, Kaya s gold and silver Maybach Exelero, and Tashi s white Bugatti Veyron. Shaina s yellow
Lamborghini Veneno was missing.
With all the children between them, it was very seldom that the wives were able to enjoy the
luxury of driving their sports cars, instead of the practical, but just as luxurious sedans and SUVs they
used for family outings. Tonight was one of those privileged nights, and after meeting with Desire at
her place of business, they d ordered takeout from Mountainview Café, and then driven to a secluded
beach on Crystal Lake, spread some blankets on the beach, and watched the sun set as they enjoyed
their sandwiches, and time alone from their husbands and children. Their joy was nonetheless marred
by Shaina s absence.
 It s such a beautiful night, Tashi said, gazing up at the stars and the crescent moon.  I think I ll
take Adam to the garden for a moonlight romp.
 I thought you were babysitting. Kaya poked her in the side.
 Listen, guys, I have an idea about the wedding. Michelle unlaced her arms from around her
friends, and leaned against the hood of her car.
 What now, Michelle? Kaya asked, glibly.
 You remember we talked about how hiring Desire could be a way of healing for Bryce and the
Summers family? Well I was thinking, why not make it a time of healing for the entire town?
 What chu talkin  bout, Michelle? Tashi asked in her Arnold Drummond voice.
 I mean, there are so many people in this town who don t talk to each other for one reason or the
other.
 That s in every town, Kaya stated.
 I know, but there aren t billionaires in every town who go out of their way to mingle with the
locals, to show that they care. Our husbands families practically built this town. Their hard work, [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
