The OWLS Club
The story is about a group of people, an actual place, and a dream. While having a none too subtle dig at society in general. This is a work of pure fiction. None of the characters are real people, nor do they represent real people. It is a slow burn, a lot of romance and some gratuitous sex for those who need to get off on it. It is based in Australia so I have used local language. There is some Italian and French conversations, so if you want to really become attached to the characters I strongly recommend you use a google translator. It will help with the flow of the conversations. As I use the Queen's English, I will apologise in advance to my American friends for the correct spelling of some words.
Some of the place names are correct.
There is no underage sex involved.
***It has been pointed out to me, on numerous occasions that the inclusion of French or another language, is somewhat distracting from the flow of the conversation. I will leave them in the story, as I want you, the reader, to engage with each of the different characters, form a bond with them. [But I have now included the English text to help those who need it.] So please, use a French to English translator [I use Google] it adds to the story.***
Chapter 20 -- Beyond the wall
They emerged from the tunnel laughing and hugging each other, they stood in the second store-room, looking around at the large space. "I had a thought." Said Emily.
"Oh yes," replied Mia, with a smirk on her face. "You're insatiable girl. Can't it wait till we're home and your mum's out?"
"That wasn't what I was going to say, but hold that thought for later." She said with a wicked grin on her face.
"OK then, what was your thought?" Mia asked her.
"What if this section down here was something out of the 70's like that club in New York you keep going on about?" Emily stated.
"Club 54?" Mia replied. "Babe, even if we wanted to it wouldn't work. Apart from the Art Deco sign, there was nothing outstanding about the dΓ©cor to that place. Besides, to make this place work it has to be extra special, we have to cater for our members. Which reminds me, this Wednesday we need to get your aunt to decide on a date to open, and we need to start thinking about staff."
Emily put two fingers over Mia's mouth, "I'm sorry I brought it up now." She told her. Mia used her tongue to get a taste of the remnants of her own core, so Emily cheekily opened her two fingers and watched as Mia's tongue ran up and down into the crease of her fingers.
"And you say it is me that's insatiable, seems we both are." As they laughed, hugged each other and kissed again.
The building work was going along nicely, faster in some areas and not so fast in others. The top floor was finished, the back half of the building had been made open to the weather and so was now water and weather proof. It was an open area where there were potted palms, and sun lounges, an ideal place for those who wanted to sunbathe topless or even naked, there were of course privacy screens available for those who were still a little shy, or wanted not to be disturbed. The change rooms up there were those you see on the beachfront, brightly coloured, rainbow colours of course, high gloss, big enough for two people to change, each had their shower alcove.
The front part of the top floor was a discreet dining area, tables for two, four or eight were available. Table areas could be either open or closed, depending on the company. The chef employed was considered by many to be a 5 star chef, she helped design the kitchen with Erica, and was a no nonsense type of person. Very direct, demanding. The sort of person Kathleen liked.
Only the very best wines were served in the dining room. Much to Michelle's chagrin, there were only a limited amount of French wines, but some very beautiful North American wines were introduced from the Josh Cellars, nice heavy Cabernet Sauvignon, which competes well with the select few South Australian reds on offer. Of course Kathleen ensured her favorites were on the list. Most were not available anywhere else but the dining room, the name of which was going to be debated by the family. Erica and Anita, along with both Emily and Mia wanted the simple family name, 'AMBROSE'. Kathy and Terry were, for once in agreement that it shouldn't be, but to add a little worldly flair to it, it should be called 'SAXONY'. Light hearted discussion went on for a few days until Michelle, made a simple suggestion.
"Why do you need to make it so complicated madam?" She asked of her Mistress, one morning. "Why not something simple, call it what it is but in German of French."

"Call it what it is." She explained.
Kathleen was in her office looking at the budget and what else needed to be completed. She was deep in though, when Michelle standing at her office door, said all that while sipping on a black coffee. Kathleen spun around on her chair. Looked at her standing there, in just a T shirt long enough to cover her parts.
Kathy looked her up and down. She didn't say a word, and Michelle just looked at her, the silence said everything. If love had a sound it would have been heard by all at that moment.
"You are such a beautiful person. Michelle, and so smart. Come here, sit with me, and let me hold you."
Michelle made her way onto her Mistress's lap, put her coffee on the desk and then put her arms around her lover's neck, looked into her eyes, and kissed her so tenderly, with so much love and passion.
"I think you are a remarkable young woman. I love you so much." Kathleen told her. Michelle hugged her and snuggled into her neck.
