"Please find a way to let me join," said Chastity.

"Well, according to clause 7, I can nominate you as a member as soon as I've obtained novus membership."

"And how do you do that?"

"By getting raped three times. Sorry, I meant to say completing three wishes."

Chastity sighed. "Now you're just being dramatic. Getting raped wasn't listed as an expected behavior."

"True, but I’ve only read half the contract."

"Rape isn't even allowed in the seediest sex clubs. And the Society is pure class. Search for it...I'll wait."

I did a quick search function for the word rape. The only place it appeared was clause 49, which was a list of behaviors that would result in immediate termination. "Okay, fine. Rape isn't allowed." I heard footsteps in the hall. "Hold on, I think my doctor might be back." I listened for a second, but it turned out to just be someone else walking by. "False alarm. Wasn't him."

"Him?" asked Chastity. "I thought your doctor was some old polish lady?"

"She couldn't see me today, but the pediatrician in her office was nice enough to squeeze me in."

Chastity gasped. "Oh no. Another child molesting foot freak?"

I was going to explain that he was neither a podiatrist nor a pedophile, but it wasn't worth it. "No, just a children's doctor."

"Is he hot?"

Of course she'd ask that."Depends. Are you into tall blonde guys with dreamy blue eyes?"

"How tall?"

"Six feet. Maybe six one?"

"Um, yes please. Can you send me a picture?"

"No."

"Boo. You're lame." Chastity sounded heartbroken. But then she made an excited squeal. "Oh my God. What if this is your first wish?"

"What?"

"Think about it. When else have you gone to a doctor that's super-hot?"

Huh."Never."

"And what's like...the number one fantasy for women? Doctors!"

"Actually, that's fourth on my list."Right behind my Jack and the Bean Stalk fantasy."And anyway, that's not what I wished for. I wished for free shoes and revenge on Joe. This has nothing to do with either of those things. Although I guess the contract did make it seem like I would be participating in wishes other than my own."

"Aha! I knew it!"

I glanced over at the GenieMD poster. Was that a sign that this was sanctioned by the Society? It didn't have their logo anywhere, but it was still related to genies and wishes. I wasn’tready for this. I hadn’t even finished reading the contract yet. Oh God, was that why my doctor was taking so long to return? So that I’d have time to be prepared for whatever weird wish this was? "Shit, I gotta get out of here."

"Are you crazy? You're about to get to play doctor with a gorgeous man. That's like every girl's fantasy."

"Fantasy is the operative word there. As in, imaginary. Not real."

"What was the mission statement again?" asked Chastity.

"The Society provides a safe space for the fulfillment of our members' wildest fantasies."
