A few of the women were nodding, that knowing look on their faces. Tasha looked around the room. Several of the women were fidgeting, looking embarrassed. Others appeared interested, their eyes a little too bright.

"I'm going to show you a short introductory video, and then I'll answer any questions you have."

Tasha turned on the television and pushed "play" on the remote. The room grew even more quiet as the video began, the woman on the screen talking about the Sybian, its attachments, and how it all worked. When she climbed onto the machine and began to ride, there was a little collective gasp, followed by a rapt kind of group attention that Tasha had rarely ever experienced. Every person there couldn't take her eyes of the screen. The sounds of the woman's pleasure filled the room.

When the video was over, Tasha turned off the television and asked, "Any questions?"

A young girl in the corner raised her hand. Tasha judged she couldn't be a day over eighteen-although she knew that she had to be, at least, eighteen. No invitations had been issued to minors. Tasha had double checked that fact when people called to confirm their reservations.

"How long do we get to ride?" the young blonde asked.

Tasha smiled. "Five minutes. I know it doesn't sound long, but trust me… it's long enough. And with as many people as we have here, we'd be here all night if we offered longer rides. But the good news is, if you decide to join the Sybian Club, you can ride for twenty minutes at a time whenever you want for a small fee. That's usually more than sufficient for most women."

The girl nodded, leaning over to whisper something to the older woman sitting next to her, who nodded, too.

"Any other questions?" Tasha asked.

A busty redhead sitting beside Nicki raised her hand. "Can we pick our own attachments?"

"Oh, right, attachments," Tasha nodded. "Because of the need for sterilization after use, you'll be riding tonight without attachments, at least for your free trial."
