D'Orgasmic Chronicles Ch. 07

"What is Taxivision?" Cherry asked.

"When the taxi meter is turned on, a TV between the driver and the passenger comes on and they see paid ads for various attractions, shows, clubs, restaurants and a very special Lingerie Store," Mark explained."

"The club door passes are being printed and they will be distributed next week. We'll have someone to give the drivers their coffee credit card starting next week. Employee cards will also be available then as well. Las Vegas has to be a huge splash. I've got to call Oscar Goodman and get him to attend," Mark, told them. "With having Beyoncé onboard, this could really be a wonderfully wild opening in Las Vegas. What is next?"

"The store is ready to be stocked," Gary said. "I have everything ready to be shipped out. Pierre has a lot to do in a short period of time. Once he has the fashion shows and Taxivision videos complete, we are in good shape."

"I am bringing in the booze tomorrow," Jim told them. "I have the bartenders and bar backs coming in to inventory and stock the bars. I figured having them come in and put everything where it belongs was the best thing to do.

The servers are coming in to pick up their outfits. That stuff arrived yesterday. They each have five separate styles of uniforms and they can wear heels or boots. They are going to look gorgeous.

I also have the people who are responsible for handling the in-house camera systems coming in later today. I want them familiar with the equipment today because we are going to video the bar setup in the club and down below. I figured, we have the equipment, let's make a training tape."

"That is a wonderful idea," Holly said as she kissed her favorite new man. "You've done a great job baby, you're sweet reward awaits darling."

"The rest of the non-perishable supplies are supposed to be delivered within the hour. By tomorrow, we should have everything but the food," Holly told them. "The wait staff is coming in to get their uniforms too. Shannon, once again, outdid herself. The day uniforms are very pretty. The afternoon shift uniforms are very sexy and the overnight uniforms are downright naughty. I love them."

"I called Sue and asked her to come in. She is fantastic. She will be managing the store. I don't know if you met her when she was in Orlando for the first training session. She is gorgeous and has legs that won't quit," Wendy said.

"Be careful girl, you know I'm a leg man," Gary giggled.

"Oh shut up," Mark growled, "You've already got the blonde version of your dream girl now."

"Oh Gary, that's funny," Beyoncé smirked. "Who is his dream girl?"

Mark roared. "The one woman he's never met, Carmen Electra. He fell in love with her legs back when she was dating Dennis Rodman. He's had a thing for her ever since. He's never said a word about her since he met Wendy. Personally, I think he's much better off."

"Hell. I'd love to meet her. I've studied her for years. No one is better on the pole than she is," Cherry grinned.

"That is a load of crap and you know it," Mark smiled. "You're better than anyone in Las Vegas. If you need confirmation of that, let's go back to Sapphires."

"I don't know about that, to me, she's the best," Cherry smiled.

"I'd love to see you dance Cherry. I know you could teach me a few things," Beyoncé said.

"I've learned so much in the last few weeks. Working with Brenda Lutz has been wonderful. That woman has moves that will blow you away," Cherry, told her.

"Are you talking about the Tony Award winning Brenda Lutz, one of the best dancers and choreographers alive today?" Beyoncé asked. "I heard she retired."

"One in the same hon. She is Gary's next door neighbor and Mark Gary and Jill have been close friends with her since they were very young. She is teaching all of our club dancers, regional dancers and the professional touring dancers as well. I love her to death," Cherry told her.

"I've studied her," Beyoncé told them. "I am a good dancer but she just blows me away. I'd love to meet her."

"She'd love to meet you too," Mark, quipped. He picked up a tablet, tapped it several times and then he smiled. "Hi baby girl, how are you? I've got someone here who wants to talk to you."

He turned the tablet to Beyoncé, "Beyoncé, say hello to Brenda."

They talked for twenty minutes. Linda had to step in to convince Brenda that there actually were two of them. Beyoncé was so happy when Brenda told her she was welcomed to come anytime and spend some time with her. Beyoncé told her she would be in Orlando to open the Glove. Brenda was excited to have the chance to meet her. They said goodbye and the connection was broken.

"I come here to spend a week and relax and I discover family I didn't know I had. Then I meet three of the biggest movers and shakers and I'm so excited about everything. This is simply amazing to me. I owe Ashley and Dave the biggest kiss they ever had," Beyoncé purred.

Gary walked over, picked up the tablet and instantly, Baditude started to play. Cherry looked at Mark and Gary and they both nodded. She started before she ever hit the pole.

"Damn, she has the moves, doesn't she?" Beyoncé said.

"You haven't seen anything yet," Rose said as she refilled everyone's drink.

Cherry didn't hold anything back. Gary had selected her playlist and she got into it. Mark and Gary were smiling broadly and Cherry saw the reaction. She danced that pole and did her signature upside down strip. Beyoncé was clapping wildly.

"Holy shit; there is no way I could ever do that move. That was fantastic!" Beyoncé said as Cherry rejoined them.

"Brenda has taught my baby some new moves. I love it," Mark said as he kissed her neck.

"You noticed, how nice," Cherry said. "Sometimes I wonder just how observant you are. Rose, you're right, every single day he does something that blows me away."

"Teach me how to do that Cherry and I'll love you for the rest of my life. Damn girl, you have the moves. I could use you in my next video," Beyoncé said.

Cherry walked over to her and gave her a big hug, "Talk to my agent baby as she took her hand and put it in Mark's hand. I'm available."

"Why does that not surprise me? Somehow, I got that impression. If I want any of the other D'Orgasmic dancers, I have to talk to Lori. For you, I have to talk to Mark. I really like that," she said. "I have to tell you, I am having a blast with you people. This has really been a great trip to Las Vegas."

"Speaking of that," Mark said. "You're more than welcome to stay here if you'd like. I do have adequate accommodations."

"I'm a little confused about one thing. When we came here, we were on the top floor. We came down two floors to get here. Do you own two floors of this building?"

"Hon, he owns the top five floors," Linda smirked. "Yes, this is the ultimate bachelor pad."

"Actually I live on the top floor; Michelle and Jackson live on the second floor. All of my executives and pilots live on the fourth floor. There are a number of gorgeous suites on that floor and the fifth floor is nice suites for my guests. If you stay here, you'll be staying on the second floor. It is very nice up there," Mark told her. "It's also private which I know you need."

"And this is the legendary party floor. It's gorgeous. I imagine your parties are out of control. I hear there are some very special rooms," she giggled. "Like I said before, I can be very persuasive."

Mark blushed again, "Well, there are a few specialty areas."

"I do hope you'll show me sometime," she purred. "In the meantime, I do think I'll take you up on your offer. Can someone give me a lift back to the hotel? I think I need to take a nap. I've been going for over 24 hours."

"I think we all have. I know I could use a nap. I'll have Jackson take care of everything for you. We'll see you in a few hours," Mark said as Linda and Beyoncé left.

"Well, this was worth the trip," Gary said. "With Beyoncé opening the Glove and Loretta opening Country Girl, we're golden. I need to lie down," he yawned.

The next couple of days were a riot, Cherry went back to Orlando to meet up with everyone and prepare for her trip to New York. Beyoncé and Linda went out and blew peoples minds everywhere they went. Gary, Mark, and Holly finalized everything for the two club openings before they headed back to Orlando. The TV ads had started in Orlando for all three venues. It definitely was time to start the buzz going.

Loretta and Gary were on the phone many times and she promised that she had some surprises up her sleeve. He was definitely excited every time he talked to her.

Beyoncé walked up to the bar one afternoon just before Gary hung up with Loretta. She took the phone and talked to her. She told Loretta that she was going to do for the Velvet glove what she was doing for Country Girl. She walked away from the bar so that Gary couldn't hear what she was saying. When she handed the phone back to Gary, she had the sweetest smile on her face. Gary said goodbye to Loretta and hung up.

"Okay, what's up your sleeve?" he asked her.

"Oh nothing much, we're just making sure this is the biggest opening the industry has seen in years. Other than that, not a thing hon." She gave him a hug and kissed his cheek. "You're quite a guy. I heard a lot about you before I met you. You have a wonderful reputation. The thing is, most people say that you have avoided the press most of your life. Mark is out there constantly but you've stayed in the shadows. Why is that?"

"I don't know. My life was pretty much set for me from the time I was a kid. Things happened that demanded that changes take place and suddenly, I stopped being the son to being the owner of a very successful business. We had all worked for my parents from the start. Hell, I remember Mark delivering product to our outlets in his 57 Chevy. Working for my parents put him through law school. Jeremy and I were supposed to run the company eventually but that didn't happen. After my parents died, his parents ran everything but by that time, I had bought the company. I just preferred to stay in the shadows."

Beyoncé laughed, "Impressive, is the only word I can use to describe how successful you have become. I talked with the girls last night. Actually we had a very enlightening talk."

"Oh shit, did Holly's name come up?" Gary blushed.

"She doesn't seem so loud to me," Beyoncé giggled. "I guess her plan kinda backfired on you huh?"

"Honestly, if it happened to anyone else, they would be in trouble. For me, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. They are the three sweetest women any man could ever have in his life. I love them with all my heart."

"I'll tell you what is impressive to me. The fact that you caused Holly to be so expressive and then you followed that up with what you did to those three women. I wish I could find a man like that myself," she said as she sipped her drink. "Don't get me wrong, JayZ is great, just not that good."

"Honey, a flea could make Holly that expressive. She is one of my best friends and I love her to death. She is just very loud when she gets going," he laughed.

Beyoncé laughed, "Well, she's not alone. Some women really get off by being loud."

Shannon walked up and changed the topic. She had been busy and she sat next to Beyoncé and showed her several drawings.

Beyoncé was speechless, "These are fantastic Shannon. They are simply perfect. They are sexy, they show off my legs wonderfully and everything else too."

"So tell me," Shannon asked, "What colors do you want them in?"

Nancy came up and did Beyoncé's color palette. She pulled out swatches for that palette and gave them to her. "These colors are perfect for you. They will make you look so delicious hon. We thought you might like to see them. You probably already have this but since I was here, I wanted to make sure," she said as she put everything away.

Shannon and Beyoncé talked for a while. Gary gave her a kiss on the cheek and told her he had to make a few phone calls.

He walked into Mark's office and saw him watching Fox. "Do you believe this shit," he asked. "Senator Coburn wants to know why we are borrowing a trillion dollars from China and turning around and giving them foreign aide. I'd like an answer to this myself. People wonder why we take the positions we take. This is bullshit."

"I know that really is shocking. Think about how much good that money could do right here. It pisses me off," Gary said. "On another topic, those vibes we were getting are getting stronger by the day. She is close to coming out and asking to be invited to a party. I was very coy but she is such a superstar, I didn't know how to handle it," Gary told him.

"You did it exactly the way I am handling it," Mark said. "I am just letting her talk and eventually, I know she will ask. In fact, once she meets her other cousin, I know that will be a game changer for sure," Mark smiled.

"Oh shit, I never even gave Tammy a thought. You bet it will be a game changer," Gary smiled. "I know her so well and I also know that she will be all over me when I get back, Beyoncé or not. Once she gets to talking to her, all bets are off."

"Well, have you noticed how the women are reacting?" Mark said. "She is one of the largest superstars on the planet. She is one of the sexiest women alive and not one of our women has said a thing. They have all become good friends with her. I just want this to play it out."

"That's what I was thinking. Other than that, is there anything we need to do right now?" Gary asked.

"We are doing great. Holly talked to Marv and everything in the restaurant is going great in Orlando. He is just waiting for the food to arrive. Tomorrow he is getting the non-perishable food in. That will keep him busy for a few days. He's anxious to get this show on the road."

"I talked to Lindsay and she is the same way. The liquor is all in place, set up and all the inventory is in the system. Hank is the same way in the Glove and they both want to get the show on the road. Lindsay is so horny, she's beside herself," Gary laughed.

"That woman is a treasure and a half," Mark grinned. "I'm pretty happy with Ashley and Gillian myself. Ahh, life is good my friend. Anyway, the girls have Sue in today. Their inventory should arrive tomorrow. That will keep them busy for a few days. Have you met Sue?"

"Apparently she was in Orlando but I am not sure if I met her or not. That was a whirlwind of people and I didn't catch many of their names. Let's go over and check her out. I just hope she is as sexy as Vicki is. That woman is adorable," Gary said.

"You have that right," Mark said as they entered the elevator.

They walked into the store and saw Sue. She was, exactly as expected, perfect in every way. Sue had blonde hair and a fabulous body. She was a beauty for sure. Gary did recognize her. He'd seen her but he never actually met her. They walked into the store and saw that all the displays were exactly where they were supposed to be.

"Sue, when you open a shipment, you'll find a packing slip," Debbie told her. "You have to count every item before it goes into stock. You'll find with each item, a separate package that is for you. You'll be receiving one of every item we sell for your personal use. I hope you have a large closet."

"I have to find a place to live first. If you remember, I moved here from Atlanta. I just arrived yesterday," she said as Mark and Gary walked up to them.

"Didn't they tell you?" Mark asked. "I have a lovely apartment for you Sue. It is large, lovely and you won't have any expenses with it. Everything is included, lights, phone, internet. We want you to concentrate on making this store the shining star," Mark told her.

Sue looked at Mark with a puzzled look on her face.

"Sue, have you met Mark and Gary?" Debbie asked.

"I saw Gary in Orlando but I never met him. Hello. You must be Mark. It is nice to meet you. I didn't know that I would have a place to live as well. Wow, that takes a lot off my shoulders. Las Vegas is such a great place but I don't know the city that well yet. Thank you, that is amazing to me."

"I'll have DeeDee take you back to your motel and get your belongings. You can move in right now. We only want you to worry about the store," Mark told her. "You'll be living on the same floor as Ashley, Dave, and Pete. Actually, Ron and Gillian also live on that floor along with my executives. I think you'll have fun living there."

He called DeeDee and told her to take care of Sue.

"DeeDee will be here in a short while and you'll be completely taken care of," Mark told her.

Sue walked over and gave Mark and Gary a kiss. "Thank you so much, this is a wonderful surprise."

"Honey, get used to it, Gary and I've been together almost a year now and every day he does something to blow my mind. You're in good hands," Debbie said.

They let Debbie continue and they walked into the restaurant. Pete was busy with the wait staff.

"Holy shit," Mark exclaimed. "I doubt my kitchen will get much use from now on. Pinch me and tell me I didn't just walk into Hooters on steroids. These women are fucking hot as shit. Who hired them?"

"I don't know but I think someone needs a raise immediately," Gary said.

Pete saw them and walked over. "From the looks on your faces, I'm guessing you approve."

"Approve is a fucking understatement, my friend. Wow, who did the hiring?" Gary asked.

"Holly and I took care of it. What is really amazing is the waiting list we have. We had ten times as many girls apply than we needed. Each one is equally as hot too. Since we are opened around the clock, we were able to hire a lot of very nice girls. Did you see what they are doing outside?"

"No what are they doing?" Gary asked.

"They are painting a cab stand area. Do you think we'll actually have cabs here at night?" Pete asked.

"If we are half as successful as I believe we will be, we will have cabs here almost around the clock," Mark told him. He walked out and looked at how it was laid out. He liked it a lot. It was easy for the cabs to get in and out. He walked back to the front door and saw the cab light had been installed next to the valet station. He was happy.

"Are you happy with the cab stand?" Gary asked him when he walked back in.

"Yes, it is perfect. The cab light is out on the street where I wanted it. I'm very happy," he said.

"Great, let's go see how Ashley is doing," Gary, said. They walked into Country Girl, Ashley was barking orders to the wait staff, and she seemed to be very happy with the response she was getting. She saw them, ran over, and kissed them deeply.

"There are my two sexy lovers," she smirked. "I hope one of you is horny tonight because Ashley is definitely ready for a great fucking."

"How are you coming along darling," Gary asked.

"I'm good to go. I didn't think we'd be ready this soon but right now, I could open tonight. I am so happy I could just blow the two of you right here, right now."

"What'cha think Mark," Gary laughed, "What are the odds Ashley is horny?"

"That's an even money bet if I ever saw one," Wendy said as she walked up. "One of you or better, both of you had better do her tonight. She's been horny from the minute she woke up. I offered to do her first thing this morning but she wants cock bad," she laughed.

Ashley blushed bigtime, "Guilty as charged. What can a girl say; I have the two best men on earth standing in front of me. Baby's horny." She leaned in and kissed them deeply. "Mmm damn, they are hot!"

Mark stepped back to take a phone call, "Hi baby, what'cha doing?" he asked.

"Packing for New York. I got an email from Shannon this morning telling me exactly which outfits I needed to have for the fashion show shoot. Pierre arrived last night along with the other models. They are fabulous. They are also pissed that you and Gary aren't here. That's okay though, the fella's took care of them. Ann is a real trip. I like her a lot. She was so much fun before when we shot the catalog but she is bizarre now. Pierre is another story though," she purred.
