Treasury agents in the US? This is fiction, right? If not, they would be kidnapers. I wouldn't put it past Putin, but the US? Haven't had the news on today, so am curious. That would be a surprise, all right. Of course, I'm not really surprised by anything happening today. The world's gone crazy.

LOL. This is very funny. Seizing their arm candy is serious business. I don't know how you came up with this idea, but I smell a contest winner. The U.S. is sanctioning (as in approving) human trafficking on the southern border, so why not with those Trophy Wives?

I am sure that would be a surprise. I enjoyed reading your writing prompt entry. You told a complete story, making sure all the story elements are included using only a few words. I am impressed.

It is hard to laugh when such atrocities are being committed in Ukraine just now and these trophies wives are sitting in the lap of luxury when many ordinary people are homeless, wives have been raped and husbands murdered, but I know you are being light hearted, love Dolly x

    Thank you for reading, you are right about the humor. I was aiming for biting satire or even sarcasm toward Mr. Putin and his gang of thugs.

I truly enjoyed your amusing shortie. I wish there was a way we could "get personal" with Putin and his cronies. You do a wonderful job of setting the scene. Thanks for sharing. Rod

The way to an oligarch's heart - his money and his women. Perhaps in tying up their wealth, the young, beautiful women seen with them aboard their yachts will just leave - the same outcome:-)
Very clever.
