That reads like a country song, the way they used to make country songs. Or an Elmore Leonard novel.

I loved this maybe even more the second time around, Sharron. She has complete power over him, doesn’t she? Have you ever listened to any Ray Lamontagne? He has a song titled “Jolene” and it pairs so beautifully with this story.

Love the story but must not look at the picture. Must not look. I'm old enough to feel like it would be creepy. Ok, I looked again, I'm definitely creepy, but I'm working on myself.

Loved this, Sharron!

'....and she knows it'. Yup, she sure does!

There have always been women who understood their power, and it ain't in the board room. More has been finagled, whispered in ears, and accomplished under the sheets than in any other venue, except maybe the kitchen.

Certainly me too. I try to get something I want and the room empties.

Beautiful story, you posted it on my birthday :).

I'm fascinated with the comments section. People think that such a young girl knows her power over men but it's not true. Young girls have no idea of the new meanings their bodies acquire when they start to change. To a certain extent, we put those meanings into them.
