Mandi has always dreamed of getting married, except she never thought it could be to another woman, while Kelsea has never wanted to tie the knot with anyone, until her Mistress begins to consider it. Both of them are concerned that Erin's asexuality may be a dealbreaker, but what if it's a springboard for conversation instead?
