RE: Home Sweet Home - Anna - 03-10-2026
Cade didn’t know how much his words meant to her. She hadn’t expected anything negative, but his encouraging words hit her in just the right way. Anna told him that she hadn’t told anyone about her dream before. It wasn’t embarrassment that did it. She couldn’t think of anyone who wouldn’t be supportive of it. Even her parents would support it.
Anna’s parents hadn’t approved of her career choice. It wasn’t surprising. They were very Catholic and most parents wouldn’t want their girl to be taking their clothes off and dancing suggestively for a job. It had been a point of contention before parents and daughter, and the contention had been enough to cause a strained relationship. They still talked. Anna had called them on Christmas, but there was still a tension there. Her parents would be ecstatic that she was thinking about a different path. They’d probably invest. But it would come up. They’d have a comment that she wouldn’t have to be a whore anymore. They wouldn’t say those words, but the meaning would be the same.
That had been the difference with what Cade had said. He had mentioned Kallisti, but it had been today she didn’t have to quit working there. Eventually that would be the case. Then Cade continued to encourage her. He offered advice and suggestions, including talking to Sage and utilizing the AI Sky. Maybe Cade was right. Maybe the time to start making plans was now. And she was sure she could do a free dance class for the kids at Second Chances.
Anna sat up and moved to straddle Cade her hand went to his face and she pulled it to hers, pressing her lips against his with passion. She closed her eyes, sinking into the kiss. When she pulled away she was breathing heavily. ”Thank you, Cade,” she said, her hand remaining on his face. She brought her lips to his again, hips moving against him. She kissed up his jawline, moving to his ear. ”Its been a long time for me too. Will you take me - just one more time?” she whispered to him.

He couldn't say no. Not with her sitting on top of him like that. He grinned up at her "Your wish is my command.

A third round. It had been a long time. Anna lay next to him breathing heavily again. She laughed lightly. ”Sorry - it’s been awhile and…well…when you sell sex for a living, sometimes you need a little yourself.” She sighed gratefully, snuggling in close and resisting she hand on his chest.
She looked at him. ”I hadn’t told anyone about making a dance studio. Not embarrassment, but just didn’t think I’d be able to do it.” Anna didn’t move yet, but she was feeling emboldened by his encouragement. ”You really think I should? I mean - becoming a business owner. That’s a big step. It could be a bit different overwhelming.”
Anna was seriously considering it though. She’d have to come up with a more creative name than Cade did though. Nothing wrong with Anna Rodriguez’s School of Dance, but it lacked some pizzazz. It would need a little more she thought.
”Wouldn’t even know where to start to be honest, but the thought of doing it is exciting. I think I want to do it Cade. Maybe - maybe I can even help people learning to use their magic too. I don’t know. One thing at a time first.” she laughed, but ideas were beginning to come to mind. She just had to organize them.
