Lois looked flushed and happy from dancing. "Have you been long in Las Vegas?" I asked."A couple of days. I usually come here three or four times a ye...ar. I like the clubs." You mean the dancing?" asked Lois."Yes, I love to dance. I find nice partners here, too." He smiled at Lois. "You see, I often meet couples like yourselves at the Peppermint Club. The ladies like to dance, and he the husband prefers to watch." He grinned at me.I shifted in my seat, thinking about that statement."Well, I'm. I already knew that Nicole was fourteen, nearly fifteen.Bree nodded, "Yeah. I'll be a senior this year." Nicole's starting high school this year," Stacy added. "And I'll be a sophomore at the University." UH?" I asked.Stacy nodded."That's where I'm doing my research. I'm not a professor or anything, just a visiting researcher." Cool.

Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind. Okay, what have you got for me this afternoon? You aren’t going to ruin March. Crawford, do you want to handle this part?"Suzette's mom had tears streaking down her face but she told me I was doing fine.I found the first vile in her pants pocket and another tucked into her bra."OK, drop your panties," I told Suzette. She looked like she was ready to kill me and she probably was."Suzette, drop them or I'll take them down myself," I said and she slid her dirty underwear to the floor. "Spread your cheeks and bend over."I was pretty sure our friendship was over when I took.
