Chapter 13

I couldn't help but remember what Roni had said about the money…and it was never about the money…the truth was…the first time I laid eyes on Mark, I knew I was falling in love with him…I just couldn't admit it to myself…I kept trying to play the whole marriage thing off…but as much as I protested it and wouldn't sleep with Mark…

The more I kept admiring the ring on my finger and couldn't help notice how great it looked there and also how good it felt there too…I liked the fact that Mark referred to me as his wife to the other guys…

So I should probably retract the statement about Roni being delusional…cause the only one delusional here…was me…I couldn't admit it to myself or anyone else that I was completely head over heels in love with Mark Callaway. Though Roni is still delusional…because she wants to marry for money and love…I just want love.

Is that so bad?

I fixed my exercise pants as I slipped my toe shoes on and tied them around my ankles as always…I stretched out and popped a CD into the stereo that was hooked to the speakers placed around the room…and hit play…

Mark walked up to the gym door, Glenn had told him this was where he took Alyssa…he looked in and could hear the song she was playing…and watching her move, dance and stretch her body into unbelievable poses…was amazing…he'd never seen her move so slick and smooth, like a black panther ready to attack it's prey…

Alyssa's muscle tone was amazing…and he watched in amazement as she lifted her entire body off the floor with her arms…he watched as she went into a hand stand and her knees bent and she touched her toe shoe covered toes to the top of her head, and then slowly lowered her feet to the ground into a back bend…then pulled her body over and onto her knees.

Mark poked his head in as the song went off and said, "Alyssa you ready for that talk?" I stood up and said, "Sure…" As I walked over and turned the stereo off and retrieved my CD. Put my music away and also slipped my shoes off and put them back in my bag.

As we were walking down to Mark's dressing room…he grabbed my hand and held onto it…I know it was just for show…but his warm hand was making my whole body tingle. The longer he held onto my hand the more I could feel the moisture building in my panties…All I kept trying to think about was COLD SHOWER…COLD SHOWER…
