With a sigh, he reached out his hand and opened the door only to scarcely admire the hand painted artwork that adorned it’s door. As the door opened, the bell attached to the top of the door fought it’s way into the auditory blast that filled the room within. Music blared from the speakers mounted in the ceiling and assaulted his eardrums, causing him to wince slightly at the unexpected loudness. The young face that looked up from the reception desk at the sound of the bell acknowledged his presence with a grin while she reached across the desk to turn the music down to a softer level.

“Hi there, I’m Crystal” the young woman said as she got up and walked around to the front of the desk. “What can we do for you today?”

“I need to see about getting a tat done,” he replied as his eyes took in the deep blue coloring of the acrylic plugs that filled her stretched earlobes.

Well now, she is a cute one. Wonder what we would find if we tore those pigtails from her scalp and got a chance to see what’s underneath.

I said I would get it.

“So, you know what you want and want to set up an appointment then hun?” she says as she haphazardly takes a seat on the front of the desk and pulls an appointment book to her while casually pushing a pierced stud in and out of her lower lip.

Bet your trying to see what’s underneath that little black dress, aren’t you. You want us look for you?

Leave her alone!

Or you’ll do what to stop us? What if we want to do a little body modification on her, what if we just cut that pretty little…

Shut up and let me talk

“I’d like to get it done now,” impatient today aren’t you, don’t fret Sweets, we will leave her alone “have anyone available?”

That’s all for now, head on over to Amazon and buy the book! Don’t forget to leave a review on Amazon if you buy it.
