This happened few years ego. One of our Projects was going on near Chennai. I used to go there every week for a day or two to oversee works. That day I left early morning in my car to that project site, reached around 11.30 am. Whole day I was busy at site and I had planned to stay back there that night and return only next day afternoon but late in the evening.
I received a call from my office to come back same night to attend one important meeting next day. So I decided to leave around 7pm and to drive back to Bangalore our Project manager offered me his driver to drop me and come back next day because it was night driving and I was alone to travel in the night. Journey would take easily 5 to 6 hrs in the heavy traffic at night.
One of our lady officers who had gone to that project site previous day on her job was supposed to come back by Bus. To catch the Bus she was about to leave the site to go to Chennai by some other transport. As she came to know that I am also going back same night, she asked me whether she can join me. I said no problem, any way I am going back alone.
I can drop you at your residence and proceed towards my home. So we started at around 7.30 pm. We both sat in the back seat and started talking about the project. After 10 minutes she said she is having severe headache and wants to sleep for a while. I said Ok, take rest and I kept quite. I knew this lady called Usha since 4 years.
She was very friendly with me as many other colleagues of mine, although she was quite junior to me and I always used to treat all my subordinates in a friendly manner. She was around 28 years old, medium built, fair and good looking, married for 5 years with no issues yet. She went to sleep quickly and started leaning on my shoulder.
I was quite and allowed her to rest her head on me. After few minutes she got awake and said sorry to me. I said don’t worry I did not mind, you can sleep again if you want to. She looked at me and smiled. After a while she asked – can I rest my head on your lap if you don’t mind? I said no problems, be comfortable. She immediately stretched herself and slept on the seat resting her head on my lap.
I was not quite sure where to keep my right hand since she rested her head on my right lap. She guided my hand to be kept on her forehead, maybe because of her headache. I genuinely felt like pressing her fore head slowly to make her comfortable. She liked that and I kept pressing her head for some time. Around 8.30 pm driver slowed down the Car and asked about dinner.
He was almost nearby a good restaurant. I told him to stop at that restaurant for dinner. I and Usha sat on a corner empty table and ordered food. I enquired about her headache and she said it is gone now smiling at me. I wanted to have a beer, asked her whether she is
Ok with that. Surprisingly she said ok, I will also taste one glass.
We both talked about our families and other things. She was unhappy that she did not conceive yet although married for 5 years now. She expressed indirectly the same thing but she was very open while talking. After dinner along with that beer we started our journey again.
This time without asking she rested her head on my shoulder and my right hand was almost holding her waist. She sat very close to me pressing herself towards me and I started enjoying the same. Luckily our car was not having centre rear view mirror and no way could driver see us easily. She whispered – I need a baby. I said don’t worry you will have babies, there is lot of time ahead, still you are so young. She said no, I cannot wait any more and saying so she brought her lips very close to mine and brushed it.
I could no more hold on and I kissed her gently. She grabbed my lips and started chewing it passionately. I reciprocated and started enjoying. I pressed her boobs which were so soft with my left hand. She guided my right hand between her thighs and my hand started searching for g spot. She widened her legs; I stared massaging her private part with clothes on in between.
She was so excited and started moaning slowly. I closed her mouth with mine completely. After a while she shivered widely with heavy sighs and calmed down for a few seconds. She was wearing Chudidar. She removed her lower part including under wear and removed my pant zip, took out my tool which was already jumping. I lowered down my pant a bit to feel little comfort in that position.
She came and sat on my lap facing her back to me. She caught hold of my tool and guided to her hot and wet cunt and sat firmly on it. I felt her hotness inside her cunt which was really astonishing. I kept enjoying her boobs with my left hand and my right hand become busy with her cunt. I kept on massaging her g spot.
She keep coming again and again. She was moving on my lap slowly and my tool was in heaven. After one hour or so my tool blasted full load inside her and we both felt fully satisfied. She was so happy, kept my tool inside her for some more time leaning backwards, kissing me again and again and whispering thanks. Finally she climbed down from my lap and put on her clothes.
I also put my pant back. She spent rest of the journey almost lying on me, kissing me every now and then on reaching the town first I dropped her at her home and left for my house. She gave me good bye kiss before getting down from the car. After this incident she used to give me naughty smile whenever we meet.
After 4 months or so one day she came to my cabin and told me that she is very much thankful to me and so much happy for that day. I asked her why what happened. She replied saying I am pregnant and everybody at home are very much excited, happy with me all because of you. I did not say anything but felt happy because she was happy, for feedback mail me at

If truth be told I was dreading my return to Marchington Hall, my brother Charles the Fifth Baron Marchington was barely cold in his grave before I found myself dragged from service overseas to oversee his estate, though in truth it was no longer his but mine. He left his dear wife Marjorie, as frigid an ice maiden as ever walked England's hallowed turf, and her mother Deloretha, the perfect model for any artist wishing to depict a witch as ever walked abroad, and with an evil manner to...
A squirrel quietly munched an acorn. It looked up, and noticed a translucent figure approaching. "Boo" the ghost tried. The squirrel seemed unimpressed and casually moved on to another acorn. The ghost drifted lightly over the ground, back and forth, searching, blending with the early morning fog. Ahead loomed a building; perhaps this was the place it seeks. It was the Chapel. No help there for a ghost. "Nooooooo!" the ghost cried, hauntingly. "Why will no one help me?" "Perhaps,"...

It was almost the end days of my vacation. My best friend Renu had not come back from her hometown yet. Feeling bored at home, I was browsing through all the movies on my laptop. My mom had gone to her office and our maid had already left, finished with her daily chores. I had a whole day ahead of me, with nothing to do. I did not find any good movies online. Dejected, I closed my laptop and lay back on the bed, wondering what to do. As most of the families were out of town due to the holidays,...

The door to the kitchen opened behind me and the kitchen maid, who also served in the dining room, bustled through. " I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Malone." " No problem, Ashley. I just got here myself. " I looked up at the taught fabric over Ashley's full breasts as she leaned forward to set out my orange juice, eggs and bacon. My eyes traveled up to her brown hair, smoothed back into a ponytail, and down her body to her short denim skirt. My fingers slid up between her thighs...

My company decided to send me to a conference in San Jose, CA on pretty short notice. Sheri had a bunch of vacation time, so I asked my boss if she could join me. It was no problem, but finding a hotel room in close proximity was much harder. We were always supposed to stay in the main chains of hotels because we got corporate discounts. With basically everything else booked, I found a small boutique hotel that had rooms available. The best part was it was within walking distance to the site of...
Wife LoversThere was a knock on his office door and, once Henry had realised that whoever was outside was waiting to be invited in, a young woman entered. Kerren Kerrish had been as good as his word and based on his first sight of her Henry thought she would be very suitable indeed. She was, he supposed, about twenty one or twenty two years old and wore a curious combination of western and what he assumed was traditional Kushtian dress. On her head she wore a pill box hat from which draped a scarf that...

any of the actresses mentioned below. This story is written down for enjoyment purposes only. Reese witherspoon woke up with a headache. She didn't know where she was. All she could feel that she was blindfolded. Not only that, she was tied to the bed with duct tape, unable to move her hands and legs. She also noticed that she was nude. A duct tape covered her mouth so that she shouldn't shout. All she remembered was going to a producer's home for some script reading of a film they were...
The third person I ever had sex with was my husband so you couldn’t call me promiscuous. I lost my virginity aged 18 during a drunken student party and I was not at all impressed with the whole sex thing. The second man came along two years later; he was my first long term love, well a few months anyway. Then there was Paul, we dated; we got engaged and eventually married. I didn’t know and didn’t care if our sex life was good or not, it was good enough for me. We had and still do have sex...
So we went at a nice hotel in town, just a night away for a dinner and some fun. Away from home and the routine. We Rented a suite on the 10th floor and intended to just relax away the day and night We checked out the bar and took a seat in a leather ensconsed booth which was very cozy and private. I got a couple of drinks from, and made some small talk with the bartender. A nice guy about 25 yrs. old. It was early, about 4pm and we had the place to ourselves As I sat in our booth I noticed him...
We fade in in the middle of a quiet street, in the low-rise central area of a small midlands town, with one and two story buildings around us. To one side, a long flat warehouse/factory type unit, stocking and fitting tyres for local drivers, to the other, the town’s train station. Looking like a traditional old station, but rebuilt fairly recently. There’s a small car park between us and the station, and it’s almost full. We watch as a car drives down the road toward us, then turns into the...
As a construction supervisor I meet all sorts of subcontractors. Working on a Saturday is not uncommon and often the subs bring their teenage sons along to learn the trade. This was the case when I met Dillon. Now I am a straight male but even I have to admit this boy was cute. Small boned, brown wavy hair to his shoulders, blue eyes and an engaging smile. At lunch time Dillon found me in the construction trailer and asked if he could talk to me. “Sure,” I said pushing a chair towards him. He...
Part 1 I had already experienced a number of threesomes in the past with my wife, about four I think. They had always excited me, I’d always got harder and lasted longer than at any other time we had sex together. I never analysed it very much at the time, about why it turned me on so much. I just knew it was going to be one of the most arousing nights of sex I was likely to enjoy – apart from one time when Julie seemed to be interested only in the guy we were with and I felt very much...

Alan picked up the phone and called the front desk and told them he was checking out and asked if they could send someone up right away with the bill. He began throwing his things together almost frantically, his mind racing as he packed. “If they don’t know I’m on to them they won’t be expecting me to leave right away,” he thought. His plan was to pay cash when the bill was brought up and avoid the lobby when leaving the hotel. Then he remembered Savanna. He ran to the door, opened it...

I went back to the office to find out what Maggie had for me. I needed more pieces to the puzzle and without going to Mexico to talk to Alan, Maggie was all I had at the moment. It was not yet 5:00 and Maggie was still at her desk typing into the computer. Without looking up she handed me a folder. “The list of properties you asked for,” she said. I took the file into my office and began to look it over. I discovered that the condo that Alan lived in was owned by Beckwith Importers. ...

When they walked in the unlocked door, I froze like a deer caught in headlights. Although Carol was my girlfriend and we had great sex, I still enjoyed my closet dressing. Well one afternoon when no one was around, I took a bubble bath and pampered myself. Then I dressed entirely in Carol’s lingerie and sexiest short skirt. I was feeling sexy when in through the unlocked front door, Carol and her sister walked in, I couldn’t say or move a muscle. Carol and her sister just casually...

Growing up in the neighborhood we all had a thing for Mrs. Jansen. Besides the fact that she was unbelievably sweet, she was also drop dead gorgeous. I would often find myself staring at her sunbathe in the afternoon and would often fantasize about her before I go to bed.With Mr Jansen working many hours I would always offer to help Mrs Jansen with some things around the house like carry heavy boxes, rake the yard, and move her furniture around. During my junior year, I was eager to go to the...

"Excuse me, I need to use the washroom," said the candidate, whose identity I was about to learn. With excitement and a bit of anxiety I breathed in a comforting aroma of linen suit mixed with the dark mystery of Ilona's vagina mere inches and likely no more than two layers of cloth from my nose. To pull the hood off she had to push my face down onto that...

Cooking with My Boss My life changed one night when I was simply leaving work with my boss. It had been a good day. I even had a successful flirting session with two ladies, who I supposed where friends. One was an Asian woman, older than me, but very attractive. Her friend, a blond with short hair and pretty green eyes, seemed to be more around my age. My boss had been in one of her moods that day. She ran a small retail store and thought she was queen of the world. I...

IncestA couple or maybe three hours later from the ridge above George-town we could see the dark river, some glowing lamps and a few lighted windows. It must have been after midnight, and Billy had given me the job of counting people and finding Jim Griffith and Mike Ware. We huddled together to keep warm and smoked, chewed some food and stomped our feet. The wind had died down, but it was still very cold. We all breathed out clouds of steam like a herd of beeves. I found the men he wanted and...
Beckwith was putting together a bunch to go down to the bridge and waved to me, "Caleb, he said, "Gus Yore hain't quite thawed yet. Why don't you go with these men and take charge of that bridge." I hated to do it, but I pulled on my coat and wool hat and picked up my rifle. We went out and found our beasts, folded their blankets back over their rumps and clattered down to the creek without seeing a soul along the streets except for our own people. Seemed like the town was empty or...
Then things started happening pretty fast. Mr. Wainright said goodbye to the Swede; then I nodded a farewell to her and durn if she didn't get up on her toes and brush her soft lips against my stubbled cheek. Whooee. I went and called in the bridge guards, and they brought those four extra muskets with them. Somebody fetched the Foster women in their fancy pleasure carriage with the hickory-sprung seats, only one like it in town. Mrs. Foster was wearing a pelisse, plus a red hood with a...
Billy went out into the cold as a couple of farmers came in. Stud explained what was going on to them as people moved around, and the Foster women took up a sheltered position in the high-backed settle near the fire. The cat joined them, purring, and perched on the girl's lap, paws folded inward. Didn't anybody look like they was going to cause trouble so after a bit I asked Annie if she was interested in a quick one while we waited, and she elbowed me in the ribs hard enough to crack one...
The sun was setting behind some pink and gray clouds when we reached Mr. Peter's sturdy brick house. The first floor windows all showed candle light as Beall tied his horse to a weight and set it on the curbstone. "You plan to sit out here and wait?" he asked me. I couldn't figure if he wanted me to say yes so I said no, I'd rather get out of the cold. We went up to the door together and Beall knocked. A well-dressed, old black man answered and said, very polite, that Mr. Peter was at...
"Damn," Billy Beckwith cursed. He jumped up, grabbed Jimmy by the arm and hustled him outside. Some men rushed to the windows and a couple hurried out the back door, but most just stood talking to each other and waiting. In a minute Beckwith stuck his head back inside and yelled, "Caleb!"
