between Rebecca and Kate.
“Good idea. She will definitely need it with those two studs,” Rebecca teased.
Kate stuck her tongue out at Rebecca. “What about you?” Kate asked.
Rebecca rolled her eyes. “The way I’m going, I’ll need sex toys before lingerie. Aleks is afraid that sex might hurt the baby. He’s about two seconds away from getting shot,” Rebecca said, looking disgruntled.
“We can order that, too!” Rian said and winked at Rebecca. “The internet is a beautiful thing. Press a few buttons then presto change-o, packages are delivered to the P.O. box I have established. Then I can send someone from the Pride to go pick them up. Now, ladies, what did you have in mind?”
“I think Kate should go with a black-and-red leather bustier. Bran will swallow his tongue,” Damian said.
“She needs a pair of black stilettos or boots to pull that off,” Ashby offered, rocking Landon from the loveseat.
Rebecca nodded in agreement. “Maybe a pair of black leather boy shorts that unzip down the middle.”
“Rebecca, we definitely have the same fashion sense,” Rian said, frantically hitting keys on the keyboard.
“Don’t I get a say in this?” Kate asked. Everyone said “no” in reply.
“I went with knee-high black leather boots,” Rian said. Everyone cheered and Kate buried her face in a pillow.
“Don’t forget she needs new clothes. She only wears jeans and sweaters,” Rebecca said.
“I like jeans and sweaters. They are warm and comfortable,” Kate countered.
“And every once in a while I love them, too, but, Kate, it’s like every day for you. How about a blouse and a blazer or a graphic tee and jeans? Or a nice dress,” Rebecca said.
“I guess, but it seems silly,” Kate said.
“Clothes and makeup are a woman’s suit of armor,” Rebecca said, sipping her tea.
“When you are dressed up and your hair and makeup are kicking ass, you can take on the world. It gives you an ego boost like no other. I think once you see how much fun it is to plan your outfits, you’ll be addicted.”
“She is absolutely right. Great clothes are essential. No more sweats and jeans unless it’s a rainy Saturday afternoon and you aren’t planning on leaving the house,” Rian said.
“Okay, okay, ya’ll have convinced me. Load up the cart, Rian. But remember—”
“I remember, no frills or sequins and keep pink to a minimum. On it!” Rian said, practically bouncing. Pretty soon he declared her wardrobe complete. He then turned to Rebecca with a sly look.
“So, how about we order your stuff,” he said.
She blinked. “I was kidding, Rian. I’d die if Aleks found out I had sex toys.” Rebecca blushed.
“Orrrrr… He’d think you are so neglected that you are taking your needs into your own hands, striving to be faithful, but since he isn’t servicing you right, he might be driving you into the arms of another man, leaving him to wither and die alone. Ohh, the horror!” Rian said, dramatically.
Rebecca laughed.
“Okay, okay, what does your magic website have that will blow his mind?” Rebecca asked, curious.
“How about this?” He twisted the laptop to show her.
“Where is that supposed to go?” she asked.
“Too big?” He looked at the screen again.
“Rian!” Rebecca exclaimed.
“Here, give me that,” Damian said, standing up taking the laptop and returning to the rocking chair. After a few clicks, he showed Rebecca the screen.
“Does that rotate?” she asked, tilting her head.
“Yup and that is to prep you for back-door fun. He can’t say that will hurt the baby,” Damian said, pretending to spank the laptop. Rebecca’s eyes widened.
“I also threw in some menthol lube, heating massage oils, and some videos. You should be set,” he said.
“Damian, grab my purse. It’s behind you on the desk,” Rebecca said.
“I can’t wait to see his reaction to this stuff!” Rebecca said, giggling.
“It should be interesting to say the least,” Kate
