Author's Notes: With the thought of the Tales of the Arabian Nights, this is a modern account of how two people from distinctly different worlds are drawn together in storybook fashion. For those readers whose cultures may be part of the plot, please allow a liberal amount of literary license and use of stereotypes to make the romance entertaining. For those literary purists and on-line trolls out there -- hey, relax --it's a fictitious flight of erotic fantasy. Just enjoy the telling. Constructive comments and suggestions are always welcomed.

It is said that in hula, the hands tell the story. However, as in case Lara, the real story was how her other physical attributes drew the man who would fulfill her Arabian fantasy. She was an exotic blending German-Chinese-Hawaiian ancestries, each of which contributed to her undeniable cosmopolitan allure.
Her German half gave her dominant features. She was blessed with an attractive face marked with doe-like brown eyes, a straight nose, and a sensuous mouth. Her shapely well-portioned five-feet-seven body was highlighted marked by shapely legs that flowed blended into nicely rounded hips, tight buns, and a narrow waist. However, Lara's impressive C-cup breasts that immediately caught the eye. Youthfully firm with a spongy heft, her busty projections resulted in eye-riveting cleavage and a tantalizing quiver that left many men open-mouthed and drooling.
While her quarter-Chinese ancestry gave her a subtle eroticism to her face and body with creamy ivory-toned skin and long dark hair, her Asian genes manifested themselves in her embarrassingly large ruby-red nipples. Whenever aroused, Lara's nipples stiffened to jut to nearly three-fourths of an inch and became over half-an-inch thick, giving an eye-opening upturn flip to her full breasts.
But it was Lara's Hawaiian heritage that gave her an undeniable sensuality that drew men to her as moths are drawn to an open flame. With subtle grace and allure, Lara's every swaying grace of her hands, hips, and body seemed to cast a wide net of open friendliness and innate ability to make men feel comfortableness. With her engaging smile and seductive eyes, Lara had that same indescribable appeal of Polynesian women of the Pacific.
Yet, despite her womanly appearance, an eighteen-year-old Lara was charmingly naïve and often referred to herself as "totally clueless" to the ways of the world and especially men. Following her high school graduation, she had joined the "Tropical Dance Troop" on a dare from her hula troop sisters. Yet, when these same girlfriends dropped out at the last minute, Lara opted to stay. In part, it was because she loved to dance and perform, but she also did so because she yearned for a summer of adventure, excitement, and hopefully romance.
You see, although physically attractive and innocently sociable, Lara had plenty of male friends but never a boyfriend. She wouldn't admit to it, she secretly longed from the romance with a handsome dark stranger that she had read about in her teen romance novels. Little did she know that her wish would be granted, but in a way that she'd never would expect or forget.

And no one was more captivated by Lara's grace and physical charms than Prince Omar. He was the youngest son of the monarch of the realm, Oxford-educated, spoiled, and pampered. Without any meaningful role in his father's kingdom, he enjoyed a sufficient allowance that enabled him to ride his polo pony, cruise on his yacht, gamble in the various Mediterranean casinos, and carouse with his friends in the nightclubs.
Handsome and chic, Omar by the age of twenty-one, had developed a cultured and suave manner about him and was always devastating to the opposite sex. Although he was well-experienced with women and was used to having his way with those he chose to be intimate with, Omar was ill-prepared for his chance and life-changing encounter with Lara.
His polo club competed in a touristic seaport and Omar and his friends had been clubbing and carousing, looking for excitement and novelty. Taking his usually reserved table at his favorite club, Omar had just taken his first sip of bubbly when the lights suddenly dimmed to the rapid rat-a-tat-tat beat of the "Tamure," the Tahitian dance of love.
A spotlight suddenly flared on a single female dancer with her back to the audience; her grass-skirted hips swished provocatively side to side as if detached from her rather stationary upper torso. Having captured the undivided attention of all men in the lounge area., the beating drums increased their tempo as did the maddening swishing of the dancer's hips. Suddenly, Lara then spun around to face the audience and instantly stunned and entranced the watching Prince Omar.
When Lara did the fast-paced Tahitian dance, the gaze of the males was ensnared by her. She was the epitome of youthful sensuality, natural without pretense, and exotic without being blatant. With her hips swishing seductively, all-male eyes of the audience traveled up her shapely and toned legs, to the promise of her soft thighs, her firm but spongy buns, and then to her narrow but soft waist.
Her outfit's demi-bra barely contained her youthful breasts, the tops of which jiggled invitingly and threatened to overflow her sorely strained cups. Ironically, however, it was not her swishing hips, her quivering breast tops, the genuine engaging smile, or twinkling eyes that captivated Omar. What intrigued Omar was that Lara was completely unaware of the effect she had one the men in the audience and especially him.
Thunderstruck, Omar whispered to his faithful companion and advisor, Abdul, "I must meet this vision of loveliness...this 'houri' of large dark eyes and indescribable bodily delights. Go, Abdul, find her manager and tell her that I wish to share a bottle of champagne and the night with her young delectable dancer. I will make it well worth the manager's while and especially that of her lovely young dancer. Tell her that Prince Omar is renowned for pleasing women throughout the Mediterranean, wishes to meet this vision of loveliness. Go quickly."
However, when Abdul reappeared later, the expression on his face spoke volumes. "Alas, my prince, I was unable to do as you bid. The matron of a manager for this dancing troop steadfastly refused your most generous offer." When he saw Omar becoming increasingly agitated, Abdul quickly whispered, "It would seem that this young dancer who has captured your fancy, my prince, is but a girl out of high school in the Americas. According to her protectoress who was entrusted by the girl's parents to safeguard her, the girl or Lara by name, is innocent in the ways of the world...and especially men. My prince, it appears that this Lara is a 'virgin.'"
At this Omar sat up in astonishment. "What? A virgin? Are you sure?"
When Abdul hastily confirmed that the manager's disclosure had been confirmed by the other dancers, Omar mused, "You know, my good friend, as strange as this may seem I've never had a virgin. All the women I have known have been...how do the American cowboys put it...oh yes...were well 'broken-in' as a woman. I've never been the first man to take a damsel's maidenhead... to teach her the pleasures of a man...the art of love."
"Abdul, my trusted confidant, go back to the guardian of this young lovely," Omar purred after finishing his glass of champagne and pouring himself another. "Tell the manager that she misunderstood my offer. Tell her that Prince Omar would like to entertain her 'entire' troop aboard my yacht for a day water skiing, speed boating, delicious food, and fine spirits. Tell her, Abdul, that it is my desire to learn of different cultures and a tremendous opportunity for her dancers to experience our culture.
"However, Abdul, should this manager refuse my offer, do subtly but surely impress upon her that I can make her troop's tour extremely 'uncomfortable and unprofitable' -- or that I can spread the word to ensure that her tour is an absolute success. Make sure she completely understands that my goodwill is contingent on this Lara's attendance. I would look favorably towards the manager and make it well worth her while if she could persuade her damsel to be open to 'new' experiences. Furthermore, if the manager could turn a 'blind eye' at the appropriate moment, it would be greatly appreciated. Do you understand my bidding, my friend? Good, then go and do not disappoint me."

The dancers of the Tropical Dance Troop were, of course, delighted to be hosted by royalty and especially by the infamous Prince Omar. They were all atwitter as to which girl had caught his eye and a few of the older girls openly discussed what they would do if they were the lucky one.
Lara listened to the gossip and speculation of her troop sisters with wonder. To her, Omar was a character right out of the pages of her romantic novels. While she convinced herself that he could not be as handsome and debonair as described by her troop sisters, Lara found herself eager to find out.
