The Purse

I was bleary-eyed after work, half six, New Year’s morning.
Marlene had been out late with the girls from the Army camp, where she worked part-time. Most were married to soldiers posted to Afghanistan. I was working twelve hour nights, so didn’t mind, at least I’d had Christmas Day off, when the twins were home.
I was low on petrol, having left my wallet in the bedroom.
Marlene’d thrown her coat and handbag across the breakfast bar. The bag gaped open, revealing her purse. I never open her purse, I mean never, on pain of death, ever. We have joint accounts, sharing household and living expenses, we had for twenty years, but cash is ... personal.
The reason the tank was empty was her post-Christmas sales. She’d done them all, particularly treasuring those leather boots she nervously said were a bargain. Yeah, I knew what we saved, not the cost. She owed me big time.
Fifty would fill the car, twenty, a necessary top up. I lifted the fat purse from the bag, possibly full of clod I could use for car-parking meters. What do girls keep in purses, anyway?
I was on virgin territory here.
Yup, change aplenty, plus a key ring with two keys, Yale and Chubb. Like the standard keys for Squaddie accommodation. I’d seen the type; prior to my current job, I did building maintenance in those flats. Why would she have a set?
In the next compartment was a flash slim pink mobile phone. We both had plain cheap mobiles without internet or camera, used to contact the kids. The phone directory was full of entries I never recognised but then I didn’t know all of Marlene’s acquaintances. I opened the image library and whistled. Lots of pictures of a fit young man, many stripped to the waist, all rippling muscles. The latest looked like a skype screen, the tanned NCO in desert tunic topped by Father Christmas hat, big happy proud-of-myself grin on his face.
Damn! He’d stolen my girl, Marlene, my wife of twenty years, mother of my twins, the woman I worshipped. I dropped the purse and phone on the counter. Loose change spilled out, including a tightly-wrapped plastic bag.
Intrigued, I unravelled and opened it. A pregnancy test, which read positive. Marlene was having a baby. At forty-one, it was risky, but worth it, I choked, if you were in love. So, unprotected sex with a soldier for long enough to share a key to his flat and betray her infidelity on a pregnancy test. I had my vasectomy immediately after the twins were born, so it looked like I’d shared unprotected sex with the self same Squaddie. I only just made it to the cloakroom as I lost my overnight sarnies.
Washing my face, it was impossible to tell what was tap water or tears. My committed love turned to involuntary hate. When Lance Corporal Ripped Torso returned from his six-month tour I knew she’d move him in, play happy families, and kick me out in the cold. The twins were soppy about babies, all girls are, so they’d be in her camp.
Bitter, was I? You betcha! I’d given her the best years of my life and I hadn’t a clue.
Hold My Purse by JerseyGirl Angie "Hold my purse." The words every guy hates to hear. And girls know it, too, and seem to love their guys discomfort. I don't know - maybe it's a woman's way of marking her man as "taken", or maybe they think that a man holding a purse is less likely to give in to his wandering eye. But I think that they just enjoy the sight of the biggest, most macho alpha male melting into a wimpy soy-boy as soon as he's handed his girlfriend's bag. You know what...
A character of your choosing finds a purse in a random place and inside is a blank ID card which will be filled in late rand a description of where this person is going and what they're doing that day. As soon as the person finds the purse, they will slowly and gradually transform into the purse's owner in body, clothing and mind and go do what they're supposed to do as this new person. The Story then may end or follow another Character. Disclaimer: The Idea for this Story comes from the Author...

Panties Pumps and a Purse Of course your wondering what these three items have to do with my Nephew by Marriage. Well it's common enough story, at least it is if you are reading this. You wouldn't be here if you weren't interested in the aforementioned Female accoutraments.

Daphne strolled seemingly without purpose through the large park. Its trees were almost devoid of leaves. A brown, orange, red and yellow carpet of leaves covered the ground beneath the canopy of bare branches. It was odd not to be pushing a pram for once. Her three year old daughter had started nursery that week. Although it was only three hours a day, it was proving a challenge for Daphne, if not her precious Stella. When her husband had first insisted that they take advantage of the free...
Empty Cups She put on her bra, and sighed. It didn't fit, couldn't fit, because she had nothing to fill it with. She could still remember the first time she had wore one as a young boy. She had snuck into her mother's room and put it on. She realized she had the same problem now as she had then, nothing to fill the empty cups. The only outfit of her mother's that had looked "right" was her bathing suit, as it had a padded top. It took her a long time to acknowledge that she wanted...
Monday morning Susan woke late, at least for her, feeling like she had the flu. Her nose was stuffed, her eyes were red, her body hurt, and she felt groggy. She had not slept well, at all. She had lain in her bed, crying for hours before falling asleep. After an hour of sleep she'd wake and see the empty side of the bed. She'd burst into tears, crying herself to sleep again. It was a cycle that repeated, throughout the night. She glanced at the empty place on Irving's side of the bed, and...
Introduction: This story takes place two years after the previous story. I was now 14 and Derek, almost 17. Nothing much had happened between us in that time, the odd blowjob here and there, once or twice venturing to have sex. Id never had a proper relationship with anyone other than Derek, so I considered him a great friend and a sexual partner – Derek however had developed feelings for other people, male and female. It seemed that he was moving on through life, whether or not he cared that...
People have been complaining and negatively rating lately, so I feel like I should probably say this before I continue the story. Included in this story are themes of homosexuality, young love and sex. All characters involved, sexually, are under the age of 16 and are both male. If you're not interested then instead of reading and then negatively rating, just don't read and leave now. Thank you. This story takes place two years after the previous story. I was now 14 and Derek, almost 17....
Freedom meant different things to different people, some equaled it to monetary success and others to power. To Helen nothing was more pure than an empty road at night, asphalt under her wheels and wind creeping through her helmet. Being far past a healthy bedtime, every burden on her mind left behind and nothing keeping her from doing what she loved.A twist on the throttle catapulted her forwards, out into the unknown emptiness.

Saturday morning was beautiful and the breezes coming through my bedroom window were cool and inviting. Next to me was a hunk of a man with a hung and heavy cock. I felt his hard cock up against my backside and a shiver of heat ran up my spine. I moved in position as this hunk was sleeping like an angel. I turned around to see his cock shoot straight up as if it were reaching towards heaven. My nipples began to protrude through the sheets and I wanted this heavenly cock in my watering,hot...
The morning dawned clear and bright. Mak started to eat a hurried breakfast, eager to visit the traders' booths and see what kinds of goods they had brought with them from faraway lands. "Before you rush off," his father interrupted Mak's morning meal, "tell me what you found out by talking to the traders last night." Once more Mak detailed the events of the previous evening, ending with his return across the village's palisade. "And that was when you ran into your socalled...
Mak and Lyssa quickly made up light packs with enough rations to keep themselves going for a few days. Making sure that their weapons were in good order, they walked, trotted, walked through the forest, leaving the slowermoving caravan far behind. They slept that night curled up together in the branches of an ancient oak tree, waking to move on at the first light of dawn, and it was still early when they reached the fields of the Chakcha. In the near distance rose a steepsided hill crowned...
Her hands gripped the soft, white cotton sheet as her husband kept thrusting into her. Lina closed her eyes and wished he would hurry up and finish. She had to remind herself to moan every once in a while, although she doubted he would even notice. His movements were getting more urgent, and she could feel his sweat dripping down her lower back every time his body connected with hers. Lina felt him tensing up, and then heard a long grunt as he emptied himself into her. His body felt heavy as...

He walked up from behind and put his arms around her shoulders, lifting one finger to her lips in that universal sign. "Shhh!" She immediately stopped wiping the plate dry. "What?" she whispered. He brought his mouth down close to her right ear. Close enough that she could feel his breath caress the lobe. "Do you hear that?" "WHAT?" she whispered. Her ear was tingling pleasantly, but what was this about a strange sound? He moved his head so that his mouth was now hovering next to...
"Where do you think we are?" Jewel sat down suddenly on a nearby rock, looking shaken. "We've just come too far east and north, crossing the trail without seeing it." Mak knelt by her side, reassuring her with words that he tried to make sound more confident than he felt. "These have to be the same mountains we've been heading for, the last half a moon. There sure aren't any others around that big. All that we have to do is to head west and south. We're bound to come out into level...
Mak was only one of several scouts who ranged out ahead of the caravan. They wove from side to side, always picking out the easiest paths for the laden donkeys to follow. Even so the pace gradually slowed as the forest grew thicker, darker, damper. The game trails narrowed and were less frequent, cutting deep into the yielding soil. "We're coming to a river," Mak trotted back to report. "The ground is getting pretty swampy up ahead." Nurm brought out his map, laboriously handcopied on...
He gave Lyssa a quick hug, then watched as she ran down the trail, her hair a fastfading beacon in the autumn twilight. Olna and her squad marched off after Lyssa, leaving Mak and Kim alone in the darkening woods. The clouds were breaking up to the east, and a momentary rift revealed a moon that was nearing full. The forest was still, with only fitful gleams of moonlight through the tattered clouds as Mak and Kim slipped quietly along toward the city of the Chak. They had crossed and...
You wake up completely naked. You can't remember who you are or anything about yourself. The first thing you notice is how incredibly horny your are. Your throbbing cock feels like its going to explode. You hobble up and squint the brightness. You look slowly around you and shocked to find that you are in a small, completely-white room. On the wall in front of you is a white shelf, on which is only a black vase. Odder though, is what is on the wall farthest from you: an ass. Or more...
Gay"Fuck me now" the slutty elf demanded. The store Santa looked at her astounded. He was asked for a lot of things during the daytime, a litany of youthful demands, but coming home and being met by her dressed in her sluttiest elf outfit had thrown him off his stroke. Being ordered to fuck her had instantly filled his sack with a hardness he wouldn't dare to show at work. This would make the days of having to fulfill an endless line of demanding parents worthwhile.She reached out and grasped his...

Mak slowly straightened up from his work, bending and twisting to take the kinks out of his muscles. He was strong, and proud of it. He knew that he was much stronger than most of the men in his village, but his muscles were unaccustomed to this kind of labor. In the field around him, other men and women straightened as the dull rumble of a warning drum was followed by a clamor of shrill voices and the barking of dogs from inside the village. It was probably only a messenger from another...
"We have company!" Nurm's voice from inside the ring of campfires couldn't quite hide a chuckle. "It's all right, Kim. Let him come up to the fires." The huge beast, Mak was surer than ever that it was more than half wolf, gave what sounded like a disappointed whine as it faded silently back into the darkness. "Come on over to the fire and get better acquainted. I hoped that you would show up. I would like you to meet my helpers, Amy and Jewel." Mak, feeling more foolish by the...
Mak quickly decided that he enjoyed the simple routine of caravan life. Most of the traders spoke at least a few words of his language, and he soon picked up enough of their speech to get by with. He got along well enough with the other traders, but was slow to make new friends. He was kept too busy scouting out the line of march to do much mingling during the day, often being sent out with hunting parties to bring in fresh meat for the evening meal as well. The hardest thing for him to learn...
Mak was not in a good mood. For one thing, his feet hurt. He'd lost his sandals, swimming the river, and he was tired, thirsty, and ravenously hungry. Stumbling along ahead of him, prodded on by their captors' spears, Jewel and Lyssa looked like they were in even worse shape than he was. The sun was sinking behind the trees when at last they came to a mediumsized clearing in the forest. Looming before them in the gathering dusk he saw a rude barricade of logs interwoven with brush. Their...
Nurm woke in the middle of the night to screams and shouts; the camp was being attacked! Grabbing up his weapons, he dashed out of the tent. In the light of the watch fires he could see a wave of attackers being driven back by his spearmen. The ragged horde charged again! Watch fires blazed high as dry brush was tossed on them, and now the defenders' arrows began to take their toll. This second attack failed, not even advancing as far as the first. Screamed obscenities and a few poorly...
Mak dozed fitfully through the long night, rousing now and again to glance over at the two women and make sure that they were still safe. There was just enough starlight seeping through rents in the hide walls for him to make them out, curled up together like a pair of sleepy kittens. Several times he went to the door and peered carefully out at the quiet village, at last being rewarded by the sight of shadowy figures standing guard outside the brush palisade. King Bann was indeed taking no...
The sun had set and then risen five more times when they finally reached the clearing where the night attack had taken place. There was no longer much to mark the spot to the casual eye. The ashes of a few fires, some trampled grass, and a broken spear shaft halfhidden in the grass were hardly noticeable. "They're sure to have left something here for us. They knew we would come this way, following their path," Jewel told them. "Look around and for any signs telling us where it...
Mak spent most of the next day examining his prison, spending but little time talking to the other males. He found the old chimney that the dead male had escaped through, but it was too narrow for his broad shoulders even if the iron grate hadn't been in the way. Remembering a few things that Nurm had told him about castles, he prowled the entire area, pushing, prodding and knocking on the walls. The other inmates of their little world, when they even bothered to notice, looked at him like...
Mak fled down the hill, dodging among the crumbled ruins in a desperate attempt to draw off the Chakcha soldiers. Near the crest of the hill, Lyssa and Kim huddled in the shelter of a pile of boulders, not daring to move until they heard the shouts that told of Mak's capture. Then, peering from behind tumbled blocks of ancient masonry, Lyssa saw Mak being led away. She could even make out some of the soldiers' ribald comments as they marched down the hill toward the castle. When they were...
Their first torch was more than half gone when at last Mak and Riggan reached the bottom of the stair. They would soon have to light the spare that they had snatched from another holder farther down the corridor from Riggan's cell, and there wasn't any too much left of it, either. Mak could only wonder at the labor it must have taken to carve these interminable steps out of solid rock. "They wouldn't have worked that hard if this didn't go some place," he grumbled. "I only hope that...
"Did you get any trading done today?" Jewel asked when they had returned to their rooms after eating dinner with the King. Conversation at the dinner table had been pleasantly bland, with no controversial topics allowed to arise. "No," Holmar answered, looking both worried and disgusted. "And none of the merchants seem to know when they'll be ready to trade, if ever. All that I could get from any of them was a bunch of feeble excuses. We've always known that the things we bring are...
"Wake up, you old sleepy head," carolled Lyssa. "It's time to be up and doing things." "Oof! Wah!" Mak yawned, rubbing his eyes. "I feel like I could sleep for a week. Bring me some breakfast, wench, and be quick about it." "Yes, beloved master," Lyssa chortled as she plumped herself down on his stomach. Giving him a smacking kiss on the ear, she asked, "How was that for the first course?" "Not warm enough." He spilled her onto the ground, then picked her up bodily and slung...
As the sun dropped behind the western hills, a quiet exodus left vacant the stilted lodges around the rim of the Chakcha fields. Silent women filed swiftly along well marked trails, the last in each line carefully removing the markers as she went. Just as silently, a small group moved the other direction, on their way to steal the ponies that Chakcha city's small army relied upon for swift movement. "This way," Riggan gestured. The shelka, as the Chakcha ponies were called, were stabled...
Angling in from the south, a small party headed toward the same pass. Jewel and Holmar strode easily along in the lead, followed by Kolmar and the shorter figure of King Norgan. The King's pudgy legs pumped in a desperate effort to match the longer strides of his companions, but ever more frequently his steps would lag. Each time he dropped back he would hear a low snarl and a clashing of Kim's fangs behind him, and he would hastily pick up his pace. The sun beat down from a nearcloudless...
In a leafy glade far to the east and south of Chakcha city, a weary and bedraggled sentan signalled his men to stop for their noontime break. The heavy forest seemed to press in on him as he stood, slouching, beneath an ancient oak tree. With a tired sigh, he called his decans together. "Do any of you have anything new to report?" They looked at each other hopefully, then with resignation. None wanted to be the first to break the silence. "Decan, squad one. Report! What shape is your...
Mak came striding easily along the trail, Kim trotting jauntily along at his side. Behind them a ragged tail of woebegone men dragged along, looking as though they might collapse from sheer weariness if they ever let themselves stop. "Hello, the camp," Mak called in a cheery voice. "How about some food and drink for the hungry travelers?" "Sure thing, Mak. Bring them over by the fire." Jewel couldn't help laughing at what she saw when the sentry's hail brought her to the edge of the...
"Good morning," Nurm greeted them calmly, looking up from his breakfast as they were escorted into his camp by a pair of sentries the next morning. "From the look of you, you've got news for us. What brings you here, and who is your friend?" "I have some news for you, all right. Most of it bad." Mak explained about Riggan's treachery. "I'm afraid he's going to cause us a lot of trouble. Oh, and this is Melrath. He is the brother of Gorath, one of the soldiers we captured when we...
Withered leaves, stripped from the branches by stormy gusts, swirled along the ground. Naked branches bent and swayed. The wind shrieked and tore at the land with insane fury, then lashed the forest floor with sheets of driving rain. The sky was dark with tattered clouds, growing ever darker as the day drew to a close. "Got to keep going..." The lone traveller braced herself against the rough bole of an ancient tree as the wind tried to sweep her from her feet. "Got to find them... Find...
Mak and Lyssa trotted their ponies along the trail. Ahead of them Nurm rode easily, flanked closely by Amy and Jewel. Behind them came the ponies of the surviving members of the original caravan, and donkeys laden with goods. The trail had been getting wider and more heavily travelled for the past several days, and they'd passed a number of isolated farms since morning. "And after you meet my parents I'll take you down to see the ocean," Lyssa chattered happily. "Mak! You aren't still...

She fills the glass as best she can, and uses it to lube up her huge tits for a titfuck. This incredible girl gags on cock and eats ass like an eager little slut.

xmoviesforyouSeducing Swetlana I always had the hots for Swetlana, my wife's sister. To start with, she was always great to talk to, we could go on and on, on any subject. Not sure when it started but I also started to like her as a woman. Once when she was at our house, I accidentally bumped into her, with my hand rubbing off on her right boob. I always remembered how soft she felt. Soon I started to fantasize about making love to her. I love to eat pussy and I would get the greatest orgasms thinking about...
IncestChristen felt alive again when she learned her BFF Helen was back from her grandparents. The mystery of why she’d been home for over a week would be answered as soon as the two girls could get together again. There was so much to talk about. The fact that perplexed Christen even more was the other girl’s reluctance to even answer the phone. Helen was strangely quiet when she did take the receiver. Shaking off her bewilderment, Christen pressed for the chance to get together and...
Wow. That was all Nica could think as she walked down the sidewalk on the way home. She didn't normally do things like what had just happened. She didn't normally feel the way she felt tonight. Hell, she didn't even know that it was possible to feel the way she was feeling. She felt like she was walking on a cloud, floating through the air, weightless, because the last few hours had felt like nirvana. And there was just one name on her mind. Preston. ***Four Hours earlier*** Nica,...
Once we were ready, we headed out arm-in-arm, talking about how exciting the afternoon had been. We reached the restaurant finding Heather and Doris immediately. They, too, were wearing short summer dresses and looking quite attractive. During the usual small-talk, we found out that they were here until Saturday also. They asked if we wanted to join them on their sailboat rental tomorrow and we agreed enthusiastically. While we were nailing down the details, Sam and Lucy appeared."Sorry we're...
ExhibitionismMy name’s Mark Dowd, and until a few months ago I was a corporate lawyer with Crombie, Noble, Hansen and Petrie, one of the giants of American law, with offices in New York and half a dozen other major cities across the country, plus London, Paris and Rome. I’m 31, six-feet-one tall and, if I say so myself, good looking, with typical black Irish features — vigorous hair the colour of jet, flashing dark eyes and high cheekbones that I flatter myself give me a kind of Heathcliff look.

After my brother-in-law gave me my first orgasm at the hands of anyone other than myself, I was hooked. Being a forty year old virgin is tough, but at least I now had something real to fantasize about. I know that sounds all backwards, but until then, I had only ever heard of or read about the things I fantasized about. Now I could remember and relive an event that actually involved me and someone else who took liberties with my body. I knew that I should have told my sister, Janice, about what...

My name is Michael, and I was 17 at the time, when I first discovered I was into men as well as women. I was about 5 foot 8inches tall with a small muscular frame, so nothing special. I wouldn't say I was hung, but well off maybe. I am a full 7.6 inches long with a full hard on. At the age of 16, I knew I wanted to try sexual actions with another guy but had been to scared to do anything about seeking the attention of another man. When I turned 17, I started to get into chat rooms and talking...
Gay MaleHelen got home and ran up the drive way excited, to see her parents. Her father sat in his chair pipe in hand and cloth cap looking grimly at her with a large black pudding in his hands, “Eee by Gum a what news have you today?” he said in the least convincing Lancashire accent since Wallace and Gromit got lost there and tried not to stand out.“Oh dad stop trying to be Northern” Helen said “What but our roots are ‘up north we have worked for generations as …”“As chartered accountants, face it we...
That night, I led Sammy into Master’s bedroom. Our bedroom, now. Funny, I never thought of it as mine, nor did I even want to, but now that Sammy was here, I could think of it as ours. Master was asleep, and I guess he was exhausted as the babysitter said her good-byes to him. I saw her walk out with close to forty thousand dollars, so she better have been good. I showed Sammy my closet and how to get our blanket. I noticed my uniforms were all replaced with ones made from silk in two sizes,...
How to Cure Performance Anxiety – A Short Guide Could Aron tell he was nervous? His friend closed his hand over Carter’s, and all he could do was to think of the warmth he was feeling. It was not exactly like they were holding hands, and there was some room between them on the back seat, while the taxi driver seemed more preoccupied with watching the road ahead rather than spying on them. You’re getting a little paranoid, aren’t you? You saw what happened with Simon earlier! What if someone...
One of the guys handed Scott a beer and he offered it to me but I tried to turn it down saying, “No Scott I can’t I’m pregnant.” “Its okay baby it wont hurt you,” he said and pushed the beer at me again. “Come on its just one,” he said holding the beer in front of me. I took hold of it but didn’t drink it and he was handed another and he took a big gulp. I then noticed music playing and it seemed to get louder as I began to listen. Scott then started dancing with me pushing and pulling...
The sun had just set beyond the wet elevated woods to the right of the wide road as I drove south through the country side. Everywhere I looked, all of yesterday's magnificent riot of fall colors which had been displayed so brightly in the foliage of every deciduous tree in the area was now soaked, drooping, and muted in the failing early evening light. I reached down to the dashboard with my left hand and turned on the car headlights for safety even though I really wouldn't need them to...
