Author's Note: A new development comes in here with Infinity and one of our main characters. I hope you enjoy that -- and I hope you enjoy Katie coming out of her shell even more. She's going to be a featured player.

I barely had time to relish my afternoon tryst with Nikki Powers because my girlfriends dropped a bombshell on me when I got home from the St. Regis that Friday afternoon. Kat and Rita had just come out of the shower, and Jess asked me to sit down at the bar. She poured out a bottle of white wine for the four of us. I knew something was up, but I let it play out.
"There's a new request for the football party on Sunday," Jess said after we had all clinked glasses in toast.
"What's that?" I inquired, curious. I noticed Kat and Rita exchanging a furtive glance.
"Megan," Jess began, referring to the wife of Scottie, the star running back, "wants Kat and Rita there. For her."
"I remember her," I said, recalling the intense lesbian romp I had watched between the former cheerleader and Rita just a few weeks before.
"It's different this time," Kat said.
I glanced at her, and I noticed Rita had a guilty look on her face. For a fleeting moment, I wondered if Scottie was going to be there, too.
"Megan wants Kat and Rita provided for her," Jess added. "By the agency."
"You'll get paid," I said as my brain caught up and processed Jess's words.
Kat smiled at me, and my eyes rested on Rita.
"I mean, it's barely being a whore," Rita said playfully. "We've already hooked up for free. And it's only girl-on-girl."
"I love it," I said. "That's going to be so incredibly fucking hot."
"There's just one thing, daddy," Kat said.
"What's that?" I asked.
"You've got to sit this one out," Jess said.
I was bummed. I wanted to have a ringside seat to the action again.
"But don't worry," Rita said quickly. "Jess has already figured out a special reward for you."
"I have," Jess said. "Katie is going to keep you company. And you can watch the video, of course."
"Katie?" I said. "The players are going to miss her."
"They'll live," Jess said. "She said she's happy to do it."
"Well, it sounds like we have quite the weekend upcoming," I said. I raised my glass again. "To you, Rita. Now I'm living in a house full of whores.."
We laughed and drank. It appeared that Infinity's push into female companionship was off to a fast start.

Sunday came fast. I could tell by Kat's demeanor how excited she was to be taking an appointment again. She was even happier to do it with Rita. Both of them had become increasingly infatuated with lesbian sex, and it excited me to see the girls come together like this. It was also satisfying to see Kat and Rita seemingly content without other men. That had always been an issue with Kat, and her maturation as we approached trying for a baby again gave me an inner peace I hadn't anticipated.
The other half of my brain focused on Katie. She wasn't one to give up a football party. She was popular at them and in her element among the horny athletes. Her words echoed in my memory: "I'll do anything you tell me to." She wanted something from me, and I wasn't entirely sure what it was. Her growing infatuation with me, if that's what it was, didn't go unnoticed. And I increasingly felt the same way about her. Being with Katie felt like playing with fire, and I was game for the risk. I liked the thought of doing something dangerous.
I sat daydreaming on the couch, drinking a glass of Krug multi-vintage Champagne, trying to think of something fun and new to demonstrate my appreciation for Katie. But the girls interrupted my reverie as they came out of the bedroom with the staccato click-clack of heels against the wood floor. My head swung around, and my eyes were greeted with the most stunning display.
Kat flung her hair behind her shoulder and smiled at me, her gold hoop earrings dangling and dancing. She wore a red cocktail dress with a dramatic bow around the waist. Rita stood next to her, a hand purposefully and dramatically on a thrust-out hip. She wore an identical dress in green.
"Merry Christmas," I said.
Kat laughed. "I knew you'd get it!" she squealed. "We're Megan's present!"
I stood up and walked toward them.
"You're exquisite," I said. I meant it. "I'm not going to miss a minute of this."
"You might," Jess said as she put on a finishing touch of lip gloss. "Katie can be pretty distracting."
"Who?" I said jokingly.
Jess smiled at me, her eyes taking on a steel blue color thanks to her navy blue cocktail dress. She wore the heavy diamond sunflower earrings I'd bought her recently to celebrate the imminent purchase of the Vegas Hooker House.
"You look exquisite," I said to all of them, but I kissed Jess on the cheek.
"My stomach is full of butterflies," Rita said.
"You'll be great," I said, stepping in front of her. "You always are. You always have been."
She looked at me gratefully. My whore. My third whore.
"We'll make you so proud, daddy," Kat said, pushing her body close against my side. She was needy and clingy in a way I adored.
"You do every day, Kitty Kat," I said.
"You love your whores," Kat said.
"Every minute," I said. "Now get going. Your ride is here."
I walked them to the door. A stretch limo waited in the driveway. The driver got out as the girls congregated on the front porch. They were a vision. For a moment, I felt lonely. I gave them each kisses on the cheek and escorted them to the car. There was a surprising tension in the air. It wasn't just Rita's inaugural step into Infinity. It was Jess's anxiety over whether this new thrust for her business would work. Kat and Jess stepped into the car. I briefly saw the flash of a coke bullet as Kat pulled it out of her purse. Rita lingered for a moment.
"John," she said.
I grabbed her hand and pulled her to me. Our noses nearly touched. She gazed into my eyes, and I wasn't sure I had ever seen her look more beautiful.
"You're going to be brilliant," I said.
