That night, Kendel scrambled to collect iced water and a stack of clean towels. She had forgotten to grab a handful of chocolate from Burn’s suitcase, so while the opening band primed the crowd, she ran down the next block and purchased a few candy bars from a convenience store. Still sore, her thighs ached something awful, but she didn’t let it slow her.

By the time she returned, FlameSmith had taken the stage and rocked hard. Their first song, fast-paced and high-energy, whipped the crowd into a screaming, singing furor.

Burn leaped then spun, taking Kendel’s breath. He slid to the edge of the stage on his knees. His fingers never stopped on the instrument’s strings.

V’s voice filled the arena. Burn jumped to his feet and joined in, his voice in perfect harmony. At the back, on a platform, Jay beat his drums so hard Kendel wondered how he didn’t bust through. Where did they get such energy? No wonder they all had great bodies. This was a workout.

Tonight, the music electrified her. Excitement sang along her nerves and she understood why FlameSmith had fans enough to fill massive stadiums around the world.

When Dan came to center stage and began the next song on his bass guitar, Burn stepped behind the screen and accepted a cloth to dab his face. “That film in our knickers idea was brilliant, Kendel. This is the best concert we’ve given yet.”

“I’m feeling it.” She handed him a bottle of water. “You guys are awesome.”

He downed the water straight then handed her the empty plastic. “Listen to this.”

The drums filled under Dan’s bass, and on the third beat, V and Burn hit a harmonic, screaming high note as they went sliding toward one another from opposite ends of the stage. They met in the middle, and the crowd erupted.

Kendel laughed, delighted.

Dan melted backward as Air joined them, V in the middle, and the two guitars accompanied the vocals into another world. Nothing in a recording could ever sound this real and alive and pulsing. It blew her away.

Marty came to her side. “Fuckin’ genius, aren’t they?”

“I had no idea.” Kendel couldn’t take her eyes off of Burn.

“So what happened at the music store this morning?” Dan’s assistant cut her a curious glance then returned her gaze to the performance.

“None of your business.” She shoved her hands in her jacket pockets to hide their shaking.

“Yeah, that’s what I thought.”

Irritation sent hairs on end at Kendel’s nape. “You thought what?”

“The guys think you two finally bumped uglies. I do, too. The way sparks fly between you two, it was inevitable.”

Inevitable? Burn had implied the same. Was she the only one who thought they could escape it?

“Well?” asked Marty.

“We didn’t. And just so you know, we won’t. He’s my boss, and he hates women. I’d never bump uglies with a man who can’t love me. I’m not a slut.”

The woman faced her. “You don’t have to be a slut to have sex for the fun and pleasure of it.
