Ashley felt shocked. Wear a corset? That would be the final straw. Before he could pursue the matter, Erin urged him to complete his dressing. The pants were knee-length knickerbockers of white taffeta with a drawstring waist. At his knees were deep turned-up cuffs, trimmed with a blue satin bow.Instead of a blouse, there was a thigh-length tunic with a wide sailor collar. This was decorated with three lines of the same blue ribbon. The same ribbon was on the long, tight, four-buttoned cuffs...

"Does this mean she'll have to have surgery?"The counselor leaned back in his chair. "Not necessarily. That is an option to consider, in a few years.

"Baby, you have shown marked improvement over the last several weeks. I think that it's time to broaden your services."Pat became a little queasy and needed to sit down in one of the chairs. "What did you have in mind?""Some of my clients like to go all the way, even if their honeys have extra accessories down below. In fact some ever prefer it that way.""No way! I could never do that.
