    She wrapped her legs around his waist and began making loud
noises.
    He manipulated her legs until her ankles were firmly clasped at
the back of his neck.
    Holy shit! Six solid thrusts and he was coming. The best one yet.
Jeez! It seemed to last forever.
    As soon as he was finished, he rolled off and let out a victory
yell.
    "Pretty good, huh?" she said, licking her lips.
    "Freakin' fantastic.'"
    "I'm glad, 'cause it's the last time we can do this."
    "Why's that?" he asked, hoping it had nothing to do with his
performance.
    She sat up in bed, casually reaching for her bra. "Cyril and I are
gettin' hitched," she announced matter-of-factly. "So... I hate to
tell you this, Mike—but I'm afraid it's good-bye."
Dani-1964
    "You're a very pretty girl," Mr. Lomas said.
    "Thanks," Dani replied, lowering her blue eyes so she wouldn't
have to look at his smarmy face.
    Mr. Lomas was the floor manager at the Estradido Hotel, where Dani
worked as a maid. Nobody had any idea how young she was, which suited
her because she was well aware that if her employers discovered the
truth she'd be out of a job.
    "Yes," Mr. Lomas said, repeating himself. "Very pretty."
    Dani managed to stay silent. It was not like she hadn't heard it a
hundred times before. Men were always coming on to her, invariably
handing out the same old lines.
    So far she'd been able to repel what she considered their crass
advances, although recently Emily had given her a lecture. "You're
gonna be sixteen anyday soon," Emily had said in full big-sister
mode. "Isn't it about time you got yourself a boyfriend? You can't
spend all your time stuck in the library."
    "I like the library," Dani had answered stubbornly. "I
enjoy finding out about stuff I never had a chance to learg."
    Emily had rolled her eyes. Dani was such a sweetheart, it would be
nice to see her out having fun instead of spending all her spare time
locked away reading books.
    Emily and Sam were now married. They lived together in his
apartment, while Dani stayed put in the small place she and Emily had
shared. She could just about afford it, although Sam kept on telling
her it would be smarter to get herself a roommate and split
costs.
    The good news was that as far as they knew, Dashell had never come
searching for either of the girls. Sam always kept a sharp lookout
and had not spotted him. "It's like he knows you could nail him for
all the bad things he's done," Sam reasoned. "He probably feels safer
at the ranch an' don't dare come to town."
    "I'm sorry for the other kids we left behind," Dani said
wistfully. "At least we got to escape, thanks to you."
    "And I got me a wife," Sam boasted with a broad grin. "The
best girl in the whole world."
    Emily giggled. They truly were a happy couple. Emily now worked as
a waitress at the Stardust Hotel, and Sam was a parking valet at the
Desert Inn. They were both into their jobs and loved living in Vegas.
In their spare time they managed to see most of the shows, getting in
on their employees' discount. Sometimes Dani went with them but not
often, because she was more interested in educating herself.
    "I was thinking," said Mr. Lomas, a skinny man with sparse brown
hair combed carefully over his forehead, and thick, bushy
eyebrows—hardly a prime candidate to date the delectable
Dani.
    "Yes sir?"
    "I was thinking that you and I should go out and uh ...
celebrate," he said, stroking his chin.
    "I'm sorry, Mr. Lomas," she answered carefully, "but what exactly
would we be celebrating?"
    "You've worked here awhile now," Mr. Lomas continued, clearing his
throat. "I never see you with a boyfriend, an' since today is your birthday—I saw it on your job application— somebody should take you out to celebrate." He smiled, revealing
tobacco-stained teeth. "I know a nice motel near here where they
serve a fine dinner."
    Yes , she thought to herself, and I'm sure there's
a fine room with a fine bed right next door to the fine dining
room .
    Dani was no longer
