Ch. one!

Kasi had been at Lee's Wrestling School for about three months now. She was "undercover" so to speak! So far, she had enough inside "dirt" to nearly finish the book. And never had she been in such great shape!

When she enrolled, Kasi had managed to convince Lee to let her sleep at the school. An air mattress and sleeping bag had been her bed. No one else was aware of her presence there, at night. Lee had even given her a key to the back door.

Now warm weather was here! Summer was rapidly approaching! The night proved to be warm and humid. A thunderstorm was brewing and promised to be a bad one. Standing by the window looking out, wearing nothing more than a t-shirt and pantie, a cold drink in her hand, Kasi stood there watching the clouds building. Thunderstorms had never bothered her like they did most women. She enjoyed storms, in fact, they aroused her! The raw primal power! The sheer energy of them! She LOVED them, what could she say!

As she watched, a blinding flash of lightening appeared to strike something not too far away. A deep rumble of thunder shook the very building in which she stood. Grinning wickedly, she took a sip of her mixed drink. She was feeling tense and hoped the drink would help, but she knew what she REALLY needed!!! Kasi was going home this weekend and intended to see Mack! That would take care of her "tension", she thought, grinning wickedly.

The humidity was becoming almost stifling! Within the hour, the storm would be at it's worst! HOPEFULLY! But in the meantime, Kasi was melting from the heat! And she expected the power to go out!

Collecting her shampoo, a towel, clean clothes, and her bodywash, Kasi went to take a shower to cool off. Laying her clothes on the bench out of harms way, she stripped off her clothes, then stepped under the shower, and turned on the water, adjusting the spray to a comfortable temperature.

Turning her face up to the water, it felt good running over her sweaty body. She relished the feel of the cool water. Finally, wetting her long hair, she poured a generous amount of shampoo in her hand, then vigorously worked up a healthy lather. Rinsing the long auburn tresses, the woman applied a generous amount of conditioner, leaving it in for the time being.

Reaching for her shower gel and bath puff, she poured some of the stuff on the puff, then slowly washed her shapely body, running the puff sensuously over her flat belly and down one shapely leg, then the other. Kasi enjoyed the feel of the creamy, scented foam.

After rinsing off and rinsing her hair, Kasi turned off the shower, then squeezed out the excess water from her hair. After drying off and getting dressed, she wrapped the towel around her head, turban style. Gathering up the stuff, she carried it all back to the main room, and put it away in her backpack, leaving the puff out to dry.

Picking up her glass, she went back to the window to watch the storm's progress. It had just started to rain! The big, fat drops of water left splotches on the hood of her truck. As the thunder rumbled, the lights flickered and went out, just as she thought they might. That's when the storm unleashed all it's fury!

Draining her glass,Kasi calmly walked over to the air mattress and sat down. She dug down into her backpack and pulled out her comb. Removing the towel, she worked the comb through the snarls in her damp hair.

"Iris, something has come up! I won't be able to make it tonight. I'll call in a day or two!" Lee said quietly into the cell phone. Standing in the glassed in office, he had stopped by the school to pick up some papers for his ex-wife to sign. As he hung up the phone, he reached behind him locking the outside door he had just entered, not taking his eyes off the woman combing out her long hair.

She had surprised him, when she came out of the shower room. He had forgotten all about her presence when he entered the dark building. The security lights were all that was on, and the big man hadn't noticed the air mattress on the floor near the ring. His mind was on other, more pressing matters! But her sudden appearance had surprised him, caught him unaware!

Nosily closing the office door, he loudly called her name, pretending to have just arrived.

"Kasi! You here?" His deep voice echoed in the huge room, as he walked toward her general area, acting as though he had no idea she was there!

"GAWD! Brian, you scared the shit out of me! What are you doing here at this hour?" She asked, having squealed in fright, by his sudden appearance.

She had finished combing out her hair, then gracefully came to her feet. Nervously tugging the oversized t-shirt down, she knew she was covered, but made sure of it anyway. The t-shirt stopped at mid thigh, swallowing her in it's sheer volume. Just a few months ago, it fit, now she slept in the Undertaker shirt.

Grinning at her wide-eyed gaze, her only outward sign of fright, his eyes roamed over her scantily clad figure, as he explained his presence.

"I stopped by to pick up some papers, but the lights are out and I can't find them. You ok? Storm making you nervous?" He asked curiously.

Her soft laughter sent tingles along his nerve endings. The intimate atmosphere went a long way toward setting the mood as well.

"No, as a matter of fact, I LOVE storms! The worse they are, the better I like it! Snow storms, too! I LOVE 'em!" Her soft, slightly husky voice sounded like velvet to his ears.

Kasi aroused feelings he chose to ignore! He had to if he was going to have a professional relationship with this very desirable woman.Yet he could no more prevent his eyes from running over her slight form, than he could prevent drawing breath. The t-shirt stopped at mid-thigh and he could tell that was about all she had on! Swallowing hard, it took ALL his upbringing to turn away. He would not take advantage of this situation!

Brian's passions were running high! If he didn't leave...well, he wouldn't complete the thought! But GAWD! She was lovely! Her long hair curling damply, her lips looked soft and inviting, and those incredible blue eyes! There was a wicked gleam in them. Just then, another flash of lightening lit up the place, followed by a deafening clap of thunder.

Kasi's lips curled in a senuous smile, even as her eyes met and held his own baby blues. There was something almost sexual in the look! He had never known a woman that was affected that way by storms before!

Grinning recklessly, she gave him a wicked look as she said, "That one was close!" Walking over to the window, she lit a cigarette, propping her elbow on the sill, as she watched the storm in all it's wonderous glory.

Lee couldn't help what followed. He closed the distance between them, pinning her body between his and the wall. His lips found the soft skin of her neck even as his arms wrapped around her pulling her back against him. A soft moan escaped her lips, as she stubbed out her cigarette. He nuzzled her neck, gently biting and sucking alternatively.

When she turned in his embrace, her slim arms slid up around his neck, pulling him down to her. Her lips covered his with an urgency he had never before experienced. This only served to enflame him further.

Standing in front of the window, as they were with him facing it, Lee happened to glance out. What he saw, gave him cause for alarm. Grabbing her by the arm, he dragged her across the room, pushing her under the ring. He crawled in with her, covering her with his own body.

"A tornado is comming this way! I saw it out the window!" His lips were right next to her ear.

The roar outside was nearly deafening. They could feel the building and foundation shaking. The storm was all around them. Kasi met and held the eyes of the man covering her, suddenly very much aware of his huge hard body. Her hands were holding his sides, she ran them lightly down toward his waist. His eyes darkened with desire, unable to look away, even while the tornado uprooted trees outside. Supporting his greater wieght on his forearms, Brian gazed into her eyes and realized she was getting off on this!

They stayed that way till the storm passed. Even then, they lay there under the ring.

"I think it's safe to get out now." She murmured softly.

The metal rod she was laying on may as well not been there, for all the notice she gave it. All she was aware of was his hard, masculine body on top of hers, and how right he felt.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ch.2!

It had been several days since the tornado. The town was cleaning up and remarkably there had been very little damage, and that mostly caused by the high winds. Kasi and Brian pretended to ignore each other, yet each one was acutely aware of the others presence. Their daily routine did not change hardly at all, leastwise not to the casual observer. But Brian's assistant noticed a subtle change in his friend's attitude toward the lone female at the school. Brian now watched her every move when he thought no one else noticed. But Tony noticed the change in their attitude toward each other. He just wondered what happened, and when!!

Brian had come to a decision! Kasi was close enough to the end of her training to put what she'd learned to the test. Leaving his office, he motioned for Tony to come over.

"Tell Kasi I want to see her in my office when she finishes her workout!" Brian said quietly, his eyes straying in her direction.

Grinning at the look on his friend's face, Tony said he would. The older man wished them well. Brian deserved some happiness after what his ex-wife, Iris, had put him through. And Kasi had surprised him! Tony hadn't thought she would last this long! She had earned his respect and that was no easy thing to do!

Brian had gone back inside his office, and poured himself a cup of coffee. Sitting down in the chair behind his cluttered desk, Brian picked up the phone and made a few calls in regards to the up-coming tour. He would be leaving in a few days and would be on the road for about three weeks. After that, home for a week, then out again for about four more weeks.

A secretive grin tugged at the corners of his lips. He looked up at the hesitant knock on the door, and motioned her to come in. After a few minutes more on the phone, he hung up, and turned his attention to the woman standing in front of him.

"Kasi, please, have a seat!" Brian indicated the chair across from him.

After she was seated, he continued to study her. She had begun to get nervous by his continued silence. As she sifted uncomfortably under his close scrutiny, Kasi wondered what this was all about! She didn't have long to wait!

"You have come a long way with your training. You scored higher than any one else in the management classes. And I have NEVER seen so much improvement by any one, in the physical part of the training. You've learned to take AND give a body slam with the best of them!" He fell silent, as once again, he studied her.

Her eyes widened in disbelief at his words of praise, having been unaware of his interest in her progress. Her surprise kept her silent as she waited for him to continue.

"It's time to see just how much you HAVE learned. I want you to accompany me on the road for the next few weeks! I always pick one of my students who have shown outstanding ability, to accompany me!" He waited and watched her reaction to his invitation.

Kasi was dumbfounded, to say the least! She caught her bottom lip between her teeth, chewing it nervously. Dropping her eyes, she stared absently, at her clenched hands. What should she do? Her heart and mind was racing! This would be a tremendous opportunity that was just too good to pass up! She thought about all the information she could obtain for her book!

"Kasi? Do you want to do this, or would you rather I asked some one else?" Brian asked, his eyes watching her intently, waiting for her reply.

"Sure! I'd love to! When do we leave, and for how long?" She asked, knowing he had ALREADY told her!

Laughing softly, Brian told her again what the plans were. They discussed them a few minutes more, then Kasi got up to leave. Brian stopped her at the door.

"I'll have a contract drawn up for you to sign by the end of the day. I'm glad you agreed to do this." he said sincerely, meeting her eyes. Kasi smiled uncertainly, then left his office.

She was excited about the opportunity he'd offered her. This meant a lot to her, to her research. Then it hit her! The close proximity they would be sharing over the coming weeks, day in and day out, suddenly occurred to her. With that knowledge, Kasi felt her knees go weak and felt the need to sit down.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The day finally arrived! Brian and Kasi would be leaving in about an hour! He had some stuff to see to before they could leave. The first stop would be Asheville, North Carolina. From there, they would be going to Virginia. She was more excited than she let on, not wanting to give the wrong impression or anything. Mack had been FURIOUS when she told him about this venture.

"Kasi what if I asked you not to do this?" Mack watched her intently. She had come home to tell him in person, not wanting to tell him on the phone.

"Mack! Please understand! I HAVE to do this! An opportunity like this doesn't come around everyday! You know how much this book means to me!" Kasi said quietly, silently begging her friend to understand. But she suspected Mack wanted more than friendship from her, that he in fact, loved her. But that wasn't what she wanted just now. Kasi just didn't feel the same way about him.

Remembering that last night with Mack, and his reluctant agreement, Kasi sighed deeply, even as they sped along I-40 toward the state line. Brian glanced over in her direction, hearing her sigh, and wondered what she was thinking about.

"Having second thoughts?" Brian asked softly.

Glancing over at this hunk behind the wheel, his hair braided to keep it out of his face, all doubts vanished.

Smiling warmly, she shook her head. "Nothing! I'm just a little nervous!" The soft smile and twinkling eyes completely captivated him. Returning her smile, he had to tear his eyes away, returning his attention to the traffic around them.

"You'll do fine! I don't doubt it for a minute. We'll be checking into the Hyatt. The match is scheduled for about 9:00 tonight. We should be there by 6:00 at the latest, so you'll have a chance to rest before hand. We'll leave out around 8:00 in the morning! OK with you?" He asked.

"Sure! No problem! But Brian, what do you want me to wear? We never discussed that!" She said.

"What did you bring?" He hadn't thought about that either!

"OH, jeans, tee-shirts, a couple of skirts and blouses... usual stuff!" She said thoughtfully.

"I'll have a look when we get to the hotel. Seperate rooms, of course!" He said, grinning wickedly.

"I didn't doubt it for a minute!" She replied, grinning back.

"We'll buy anything you need, so don't worry about it." That southern charm and infectious good humor, eased what ever doubt she may of had.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kasi threw her bags down on the queen sized bed, completely exhausted. Never had she been so tired of riding! All she wanted was a hot bath and a short nap. At that moment, a knock sounded at the door. She wasn't at all surprised to find Brian on the other side.

"Let's have a look at what you brought!" Brian said as he entered her room.

"NOW?" She asked surprised at this man's energy! He didn't seem at all tired from the drive up.

"No time like the present." He said grinning wolfishly.

"OK!" she said, leading him over to the bed.

Pulling the largest of the bags to her, she opened it, exposing her frilly's. Embarassed, having forgot putting them on the top, she shoved them aside, and pulled out her jeans and then her skirts. Glancing up at the man at her side, Kasi blushed to her roots, seeing that smart-assed grin on his lips. His eyes were on the small pile of pastel lace and satin laying next to the bag. He grinned even bigger seeing her blush.

"The jeans will do fine! OH, one thing! I want you to have big hair, and wear a lot of eye make-up!" The look he gave her, made her understand immediately just what he had in mind!

"You want me to look like a HOOKER!!" She asked, not beliving this!

"That's it! That's exactly the look I want! That look will throw off my opponent." Brian's look of satisfaction pissed her off!

As he headed toward the door, he told her not to worry, everything would be fine."Kasi, we'll be leaving around 8:00. I'll pick you up then, and don't bother dressing here. Everything will be sent to the arena. See ya!" Then he disappeared out the door!

As they drove to the arena, Brian told her not to worry, she would be fine. But Kasi had her doubts. After they arrived, Brian escorted her to their dressing room. "Hope you don't mind sharing. But this is all we have." Brian apologized for the lack of privacy.

"This is fine." She said, walking over to the table and sitting her bag down.

At that moment, someone knocked at the door. "Come in!" He called out. The door opened to reveal a member of the arena staff, carrying two packages.

"Mr.Lee, these just arrived for you!"

"OK, thanks!" Brian said, taking the boxes from the man, then closing the door behind him. Walking back over to Kasi, he handed the boxes to her, explaining that they were the rest of her costume. "You go on in to the bathroom, and get ready."

Taking the boxes, she went into the huge bathroom and sat them down on the toilet. Kasi turned beet red, when she opened the smaller of the two. Inside was an emerald satin bustier. After removing her shirt, and bra, she lifted the delicately boned garment and groaned. How in the world was she going to wear this?

Putting the soft garment on, she couldn't help but appreciate the beauty of it, and the sexy way it made her feel. But most of her breasts were pushed out over the top of the thing. She felt nearly naked. Then she noticed the other garment in the box. It was a black satin ball jacket! A wicked grin curved her lips, as she thought about how he said he wanted her to look. She would make him EAT those words!

Next, she opened the other box, and instantly fell in love with the boots inside! He had spent a tidy sum on them. Made out of the softest of lambskin, the buttery leather would be sheer heaven to wear. But the spiked heels would definately take some getting use to.

As she kicked off her keds and pulled on the boots, the soft leather made her think of all manner of perverted things. Grinning to herself, she set to work on her make-up and hair. Within minutes, she was ready!

Brian looked up when she came back out. His mouth fell open and for the first time, was absolutely speechless. After several minutes, he found his tongue.

"DAAMMN!!!!!!" was all he could say as he stared at the woman before him.

Kasi struck a pose in front of him. The bottom three snaps on the jacket were fastened, leaving the rest open. This drew attention to the garment underneath! Or rather what was IN the garment underneath! She did look extremely sexy!

Walking over to her purse, she removed a cigarette, then turned back to Brian. Leaning toward him, causing her breasts to NEARLY spill out, she asked in her sexiest whisper. "Gotta light?"

The look on his face was priceless. He gulped, and dug around in his pockets searching for a lighter.

Kasi laughed merrily at his reaction. "This IS the look you wanted, isn't it?" She asked, amused.

The heated look in his eyes told her far better than words ever could, just WHAT he wanted. "More than I ever dreamed!" His voice deep and husky, desire easily read in his every move.

Just then, a knock sounded at the door, followed by "5 minutes!"

What ever he would have said or done, would have to wait till later. Throwing her one last heated look, Brian took her hand and lead her out of the dressing room. "Keep the cigarette!" was all he had time to say. Then it was show time!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ch. 3!

Brian was scheduled to wrestle Bam-Bam Bigelow, The Beast from the East! It would be a tough match but Brian was suppose to win. This was suppose to be the beginning of a terrible feud. Kasi was suppose to be a distraction, and dressed as she was, she was going to prove to be a HUGE distraction, even for him.

Walking around the ring, saluting the fans, and just doing his thang, Brian kept on eye on Kasi. She was doing HER thang! Chuckling softly, he watched her teasing the crowd. Even as he watched, she made her way over to the ring post and leaned back against it in the most suggestive way, he had ever seen. Brian was ALMOST jealous of the damn post. Kasi placed one slender foot on the bottom step and doing things that was driving the guys in the first three rows wild.

Brian's eyes darkened with desire as he walked over to have a word with his "attendant". Hunkering down so he could speak softly, Kasi turned to face him, and the view he had of her cleavage, made him forget what he was going to say!

"Did you want something, Brian?" She whispered seductively, then grinned and winked at him, sticking her tongue out at him, impudently. Taken by surprise at her actions, he couldn't prevent the laugh that escaped him. "Brian you REALLY do need to lighten up! This WAS your idea, but if it's going to cause a problem, then we need to re-think this whole gimmick." She had seen the look in his eyes, and wanted to put a stop to it right now! "Please remember this is for show!" She said quietly.

"You're right! But you look too damn good! Maybe this WAS a mistake! Anyway! When Bam-Bam comes over to this side, make sure he see's your, ahem, "charms". Not that any man over 12 or under 70 could miss them!" Brian grumbled good-naturedly.

At that moment, his opponent was making his way to the ring. The big man stopped dead in his tracks when he caught sight of Kasi. Brian had told him she was good looking, but that had been an understatement!

Her dark red hair and those deep blue eyes were a deadly combination. Add to that, the way she was dressed and her presence was enough to distract a stone statue. Bam-Bam's eyes ran over her figure, admiring the way her jeans molded her pert backside. He always had been an "ass" man, and hers was the best he'd seen in a while!

Climbing the steps and entering the ring, Bam-Bam and Brian exchanged looks. Bam-Bam couldn't help but wonder if Brian was sleeping with the woman, then thinking he was a damn fool if he wasn't. Then the show began!

"Kasi, let's get something to eat!" Brian said as they left the arena.

"Good! I'm starving!" She said grinning. She had combed out her hair and removed her heavy make-up! She no longer looked like the tramp she did at ringside. Her hair was secured in a tight bun. Stray tendrils escaped and curled about her face and neck. Kasi would have to wash and condition the heavy mass once she got back to the hotel.

After finding a burger joint still open, they took a booth in the very back. They needed to talk and Brian wanted some privacy to do it.

"Kasi you were great tonight! But I knew you would be!" He paused, looking down at the coffee cup in front of him.

"But...?" She prompted gently.

"Well,... It's that costume! I know it was my idea, but dammit, I didn't think about how revealing it would be! Or how GOOD you would look in it!" He growled, desire flaring up again.

"Relax, Brian! We'll use the same basic idea, but this time I'll chose the clothes! No more of this sort of stuff!" her practical tone made him feel better. He relaxed back against the seat.

When their burgers arrived, they were laughing and joking about the nights events. Kasi was still excited! Brian just grinned at her high spirits. After a few minutes, she quieted down, putting her half-eaten burger aside.

"I may be mis-reading this all the way around, but I want to make sure there's no misunderstanding. I'm involved with somebody right now, and ours is going to have to be purely professional." Kasi finished softly, meeting his eyes with some difficulty.

Brian thought as much, but had hoped he was wrong! He had hoped for more than just a professional relationship! He had hoped for personal!

"Well! You've made yourself perfectly clear! Never let it be said I forced my attentions on a lady!" His voice equally soft! Yet he noticed she couldn't quite meet his eyes. He wondered just how SERIOUS this relationship of hers really was! He made up his mind to find out. Kasi should have been relieved, but somehow she wasn't!

~~~~~~~~

Bright and early the next morning, they were once again on the road.Over the next two weeks they had a total of ten shows. Kasi had lost ten more pounds, and TIRED didn't begin to describe how she felt. They had not had a civil conversation for the last two days. The grueling schedule wearing on both of them.

Tonights show was in Akron, Ohio. Thankfully, they had three days before the next show, and would be spending one more night in Akron. A chance to rest!!! Not only that, but a chance to go shopping!!!!

As they pulled into yet another hotel parking lot, Kasi groaned wearily as she climbed out of the SUV. Brian threw her a slightly irritated look as he opened the back so they could get their luggage. Kasi walked around to the rear, next to Brian. Groaning, she stretched, getting the kinks out. As he set her duffle on the pavement, he watched her stiff movements.

"Your back stiff?" He asked curiously.

"I'm stiff all over! I'm not use to all this traveling." moaning slightly as she reached for her bags.

"Come on! After we check in, with your permission, I can take care of that. It's always that way in the beginning. Sometimes it still gets to me, too!" Compassion for her overcame the coolness between them.

She could only nod, as she once again reached for her bags. "No! You go check us in! I'll take care of these. Do you need both of your bags now?" He asked, actually seeing the weariness etched in her pale features! Nodding tiredly, she headed toward the hotel's entrance.

Kasi was nearly asleep where she sat, when a knock at the door startled her. Going over to answer it, she knew Brian was on the other side. He had told her to take a hot bath, and that he would come to her room within an hour after they checked in.

"Come on in!" She said, stepping back, allowing him to enter.

Brian had a bottle of something in his huge right hand. "Did you take your bath?" He asked as he closed the door behind him.

"Yeah. What do you intend to do?" She asked looking at the bottle suspiciously.

Laughing softly at her look, he assured her of his good intentions. "Nothing that will hurt! I promise! Now, come here and lay down. But you need to take off your robe." His tone almost fatherly.

Brian turned his back and walked over to the window as she unbelted the terry cloth robe. He caught a glimpse of her in the mirror as she removed the robe laying down on her stomach on the queen-sized bed. She was naked except for her underwear.

"Ok! I'm ready!" Her exhaustion was obvious, and touched the big man in a way he rather not examine too closely.

Walking over to the bed, Brian took the top off the bottle and poured out a small amount of the noxious smelling stuff. Rubbing his hands together, he grinned at the disgusted look she threw him, over her shoulder, as she caught a whiff of the stuff!

"What the hell is that?" she asked, suddenly not at all sure about this!

Laughing softly, he assured her it would be ok! "Stinks don't it! But it's a miracle cure for road stiffness!"

He started at her shoulders and worked his way down her soft back, rubbing and kneading the stiff muscles till he felt them loosen. By the time he worked his way down her legs, she was fast asleep.

Brian stood up, wiping his hands on a towel, a strange look on his face, as he covered her sleeping form with the discarded robe. It would be very easy to get use to her being around, but she had made it very clear she didn't want this to become personal. He would honor her wishes, but he intended to try and change her mind about the nature of their relationship!

Quietly, Brian let himself out of her room. They had about six hours before show time, and BOTH of them needed the rest! As he walked back down the hall to his room, the image of her laying there asleep, kept coming back to haunt him!

~~~~~

Kasi rolled over on her back yawning hugely, stretching till her bones cracked. She felt completely refreshed, as though she had slept for days. Jerking up, suddenly alarmed that maybe she'd slept the night through, Kasi looked at her travel alarm and saw it was 5:30! But A.M. or P.M.?

Reaching for the phone to call Brian, she squealed in fright when the phone rang just as she touched it.

"Hello!" She said huskily, answering it on the second ring.

"Good! You're up! You hungry?" Brian inquired brightly!

"Starving! What day is it, anyway?" She pushed her mop of hair back from her face, blushing as she remembered him rubbing her down.

Laughing heartily, he told her it was about two hours till show time. Groaning softly, she said she would be ready in about thirty minutes. They agreed to meet in the lobby.

"OK! And don't forget your bag!You can get ready at the center! And hurry up! I'm hungry!" His good humor much restored by his four hour long nap!

Kasi showered and dried her hair, pulling it back in a ponytail. Her face all fresh scrubbed and pink, made her look like a teenager, instead of a full grown woman! Brian lifted an eyebrow in her direction as she approached him, her bag hanging over her shoulder!

"Does your momma know you're at a hotel with a strange man, little girl?" He said in his best "dirty old man" voice.

Kasi grinned at him in greeting. "I feel WONDERFUL! Thank-you! The massage was magic! I feel as though I've slept for days!"

"Glad it helped!" He said, smiling down at her, happy she was feeling better!

"What was that stuff, anyway? Smells like something you'd use on horses!" she asked curiously as they left the hotel.

Grinning wickedly, he said,"Well, it is! It's horse liniment!" He said as they walked across the parking lot to his SUV!

She stopped in her tracks, a look of horror on her face! "HORSE liniment! Well!..... what ever!!! It worked!" Then started off toward the SUV! Brian roared with laughter as he hurried to catch up with her.

They ate a quick dinner in a 50's style diner, just down the street from the center. The steaks sandwiches were delicious! Just as they were finishing, Brian told her, he was expecting a visitor.

"My cousin is coming to the show tonight! Can't wait to introduce you two!" Brian said as he paid the check. The mischievous twinkle in his eyes had her wondering about this cousin. She didn't have long to wait!

Kasi came out of the bathroom, having got ready for the show. She still did her hair and make-up, wore the boots and jacket, but now, she wore a sheer black blouse and a red bra. While it was still EXTREMELY sexy, at least now she was covered. She still played the part Brian wanted her to play!

She found Brian talking to the biggest, tallest man she had ever seen! He had his back to her, so he didn't see her wide eyes, or open mouth, but Brian did, and grinned wickedly!

Taker noticed his cousin's grin and glanced over his shoulder to see who had prompted it. His reaction to her was similar to hers. ALL he could do was stare at this petite woman before him. Brian HAD to be sleeping with her! She had the bluest eyes he'd ever seen. She was something with that long dark red hair and peaches & cream complexion. The clothes she had on did little to hide the fact that she had a FANTASTIC body!

"Kasi, I'd like you to meet my cousin, known to all as the Undertaker! This is Kasi! She completes her training in about two weeks. She entered the school in the management program, and I brought her along to test her knowledge. So far she hasn't disappointed me!" Brian explained to his cousin. Kasi blushed and lowered her eyes at Brian's compliments. At that moment, someone knocked on the door and called out "5 minutes!"

"Kasi, you ready! It's show time! Taker, you want to come and watch a REAL Pro in action?" Brian grinned at the big man ginning at him.

"Yeah, I think I WILL come and watch!" That deep, gravelly voice sent shivers racing along her nerves as they made their way toward the ring.

Kasi worked the crowd much the same way Brian did, only using a different technique. Taker stood back in the shadows, arms crossed, legs spread wide, thoroughly enjoying their shenanigans! Then Bam-Bam made his entrance! After that, it went pretty much as expected!

Brian and Taker were waiting down by the coffee urn, talking quietly, their backs turned. Neither one saw her approach.

"Man, I KNOW you're sleeping with her! Not that I blame you! She IS sweet!" Taker's insolent tone pissed her off!

Brian shook his head in denial, but before he had a chance to say one word, Kasi made her presence known.

"Brian! Our relationship is NONE of his business!" Her eyes shooting blue fire at Taker, causing him to grin at her sharp tongue. She had a hold of her bag as though it were a weapon.
