Free Love's Call by Jala Summers Page A

forward until their lips touched, and he wasn’t surprised that they were as soft as he’d imagined.
     
    Liana’s heart raced, and she felt her knees weaken as she allowed her body to sink into his. Kyle wrapped a steadying arm around her waist, pulling her in even closer. Liana couldn’t even think clearly as she became completely consumed by the fire from his slow, sensuous kiss.
     
    Kyle was first to pull away. He looked at Liana’s face. Her eyes were closed, and she was still wrapped up in the passion they’d just shared.  Feeling her softness against him, turned him on too, and he knew he had to leave now before he couldn’t stop himself from taking her back to his room and having his way with her.
     
    Liana slowly opened her eyes and met his.  He bent over to place another tender kiss on her cheek. “Goodnight Lia,” he told her, and waited for her to enter her room and close the door behind her.

Chapter Eleven
     
    Liana and Alyssa sat in the front row of the conference room the next morning, waiting for the next session from Lisa Woods.  That morning’s session was entitled, Using Your Feminine Power.
     
    And apparently word of mouth had spread throughout the cruise ship about Ms. Woods’ seminars, because the room was now packed, with every seat in the room occupied.
     
    Lisa Woods entered the room, now dressed in a tightly body-hugging, emerald colored dress. She strutted in with a walk that could catch the eye of both men and women alike.  The anxious guests exploded into a round of applause when they saw her.
     
    She waited, and when the room had quieted, she said, “So it seems all of you are ready to learn how to harness your feminine power this morning.”
     
    Lisa paced, back and forth in front of the room, addressing the crowd of women.  “For those of you who attended the last session, we learned that sometimes, we as women, have certain traits that can be considered undesirable and unattractive. For instance, the eye-rolling or the permanent scowl that some women seem to possess, and so on. But what are some tips that a woman can follow to become more approachable and appealing?”
     
    The crowd shouted out their guesses, and Lisa moved to the dry erase board behind her and began writing down the correct responses. “That’s it, ladies-- a smile.  We don’t realize the power behind a simple smile directed toward a man we’re interested in.”  
     
    She pointed to the next suggestion written on the board, “Touching, is also an important one.  Not groping, of course, but a light, feminine touch has more power than you could imagine.”
     
    Lisa moved to the center of the class, away from the board and added more of her own tips and tricks.  She encouraged flirting, being happy and positive and open to letting a man take the lead sometimes in romance. Liana was having a hard time grasping the concept of essentially being submissive and flirty, but she tried to remain open to Lisa’s advice. Lisa’s suggestions had prompted her to open up to Kyle yesterday, and thus far, hadn’t steered her wrong.  So she figured she’d give Lisa’s tips another try.
     
    Lisa then asked several ladies to come to the front of the room and demonstrate their walk.
     
    Lisa had the art of seduction down to a science, as she demonstrated to the women how to move in a seductive manner, shoulders back, chest high, and hips swaying with confidence.
     
     Liana and Alyssa exchanged glances.  Liana knew what Alyssa was thinking--that she couldn’t wait to go and give it a try.  Liana on the other hand, wasn’t quite so sure about it. Playing seductive games wasn’t exactly her thing.   I’ll leave that to Alyssa, Lisa and the other ladies, she thought.

    After the seminar, Liana and Alyssa had made their way to the deck for another late morning dance class. They’d hoped for an energizing workout session to get them ready to start their day.  And their fitness
