Elle shook her head She couldn’t sto touched intimately yet by anyone other than herself "No, you don’t have to I already had an orgas?" Kyrie asked, a fair question

"Dreaasnant You know exactly when it happened?"

"I do," she said without hesitation "I remember the day Søren left for Rome I remember the day I went to the doctor because of my kidney infection I was on antibiotics for teeks When I felt better, Kingsley and I had sex The next night we only had anal Can’t get pregnant fro he left for a few days I resley inside her again, see him underneath her And she missed it Him She missed him

"I’m sorry We don’t have to talk about it if you don’t want to"

"We can talk about it But you’re the nun, and I’m the unrepentant slut It’ll probably bother you a lot more to hear about it than it’ll bother me to talk about it"

"I’m not" Kyrie paused "Let’s just say I haven’t made up my mind about abortion the way the Catholic Church has I can’t iine that soht choice," Elle said "But no, I wouldn’t call it easy"

"Why did you do it?"

"Children aren’t part ofmyself?"

"Even if I did want children, I don’t thinka child into" She rubbed her forehead and laughed "You knohat Friday night is at Kingsley’s house?"

"I don’t know? Gaht," she said "He throws these wild parties on Friday nights and all the rich beautiful people of Manhattan show up and get off You walk around and there are naked wo them over and on top of every piece of furniture in the place Except the piano The piano was off-li ift to Søren" Kingsley had bought the piano even before he and Søren had reunited A gift? More like an altar

"What about Kingsley?"
