Finished with checking the daily updates for the websites, Max sat back in his office chair waiting to be called to dinner. His thoughts turned to the events of the past eight months. It had been a wild ride. It was hard to believe that it had all started with the best morning of his life followed by the worst afternoon of his life. Things had changed a lot since that time.
He was a millionaire and well on his way to being a multimillionaire. The websites were doing so well that he had six people working for him. His skills as a salesman had paid off. Most of the specialty websites had three revenue streams. In addition to membership fees and advertising revenue, he had lined up corporate sponsors who paid him to put their content on his website. It was hard to believe that there was so much money in knitting, scrap book making, carving, fishing, canning, etc.
He never would have attempted it without being laid off. His anger at his old company had led him to be a little more reckless than was his nature. The cheating spouses website was so far from anything he would have considered that he was still amazed that he had actually done it.
Some people wondered if he didn’t resent having partners who did nearly nothing in the day to day operation of the websites. The fact was that he didn’t mind all. Without Guy and Maggie as partners in the cheating spouse website, it would never have existed. Personally he was disgusted by Maggie’s extra-marital affairs, but it was the video clips of her cheating that had started everything.
Without Guy’s help, the specialty websites wouldn’t have existed. After the first check, most of the money they sent to Guy was returned to be put back into the website. It had really helped knowing that there was a cash reserve to call upon during those early days when he was calling upon potential corporate sponsors. He would never mind a dime that went to Guy.
It wasn’t only his economic future that had improved tremendously, so did his family life. His kids had really straightened up over the past eight months. It was like they had matured overnight. His son was serious about his future and took a lot more interest in his school work. He had gone from being a B student to being an A student. Everyone had been proud the day he came home with a report card saying that he had made the honors list.
His daughter had shown the greatest improvement. It was like she was a changed person. Gone were the freaky hair colors and ratty clothes. She had let her hair return to its natural color and had grown it a little longer. It was brushed to the point where it was shining. She wore dresses almost all of the time – something that was rare among teenagers where blue jeans and tee shirts were the norm.
Her attitude had shown the greatest change. She pitched in around the house without having to be threatened. She vacuumed the carpet, dusted, and even did the laundry on occasions when Marylou was busy with the business. She accepted failures as learning lessons rather than insults against her dignity. There had been a few burned meals with subsequent trips to restaurants while she was learning the fine art of cooking, but that was to be expected.
She had acquired pride in herself. It was a subtle difference from the high self-esteem she had once possessed. Now she pointed to things and said, “I did that.” Now she talked about skills and said, “I know how to do that.” She had even taken up knitting as a hobby. She was a far different woman from the vacuous girl who boasted about how great she was without anything to back it up. She had depth.
Both kids had taken part time jobs over the summer. They were surprised to learn that bosses could be even more critical than their father. Seeing a coworker get fired for screwing around had been a real eye opener. They had spent their wages on things important to them. It was amazing to see the difference in how they treated things they had purchased with their own money, from the things that had once been given them.
His marriage had gotten deeper and better. In a way, it was a reaction to the cheating spouses website. Repeatedly, they had watched one partner in a marriage destroy something that was precious to the other. Seeing and hearing one spouse badmouth the other had brought home how special their marriage was and that it was worth working on in order to improve it. Intimate discussions had increased in frequency and the subject matter of their talks had gotten deeper.
It was strange how even trivial conversations had changed. In the old days, she would ask him how his trip had gone when he returned home from a sales call. Now, she greeted him by telling him how much she missed him and how she had thought about him the whole time he was gone. In the old days, he would have grunted that the trip went well and dropped the matter. Now, he would tell her of some incident and how he had wished she had been there to see it. It was a minor shift in emphasis, but now they each felt a little more special after the conversation.
Their sex life was better than ever. Maybe it was the improvement in communication between the two of them that accounted for it. He suspected it was watching a cheating spouse do things for his or her lover that they wouldn’t do for his or her spouse. It had opened their eyes to what their reluctance to explore such matters was doing to their marriage. Regardless of the cause, they were now doing things in bed that had been unimagined eight months ago. They were both happy with the expanded repertoire.
There had been a rather embarrassing moment when Robert had caught him and Marylou testing an update to the cheating spouses website. He had been dismayed to learn that his parents were visiting porn websites. He had been floored to learn that they actually owned one. It had taken some fancy footwork to explain that one. He occasionally called them the King and Queen of Porn in a teasing manner.
It was September when Selena’s business finally turned a profit. It was a considerable profit when all was said and done. All of the calendars were printed, shipped to the distributors, and payment received. She had paid the business loans, the printer’s bills and all of the photographers were sent royalties with more than enough left over to fund the next year and to cover her personal bills. She was busy working on the calendars for next year. He was happy for her.
Thinking back on it, he had come to the conclusion that she had been the saddest case of the four of them. Sure, Cody’s problem was the ugliest and Guy’s problem had really hurt. That didn’t change the fact that Selena had never really known what it was like to be loved. The one lasting relationship was with a girlfriend who apparently didn’t value the friendship all that much. Her only relationship with a man had been with a guy who was using her for a place to live while he lounged around unemployed. He felt that was a sad commentary on the life of a woman in her early thirties.
Even her job had been awful. She had worked for an overbearing man who used her without paying her a tenth of what she deserved. She was making him a millionaire while she was earning poverty wages. It hadn’t been fair. Working alone in the office had just re-enforced how lonely her life was.
According to Marylou, Selena had blamed a lot of her unhappiness on her appearance. She was just one of those women who was naturally big. She’d never grace the cover of a fashion magazine. Despite her substantial breasts, she didn’t have the body type that would get her into a men’s magazine. She wasn’t fat, just stout and that didn’t seem to attract men. Her features weren’t really that plain, she had just never discovered the knack of presenting them well. Her choice of dowdy clothes had given her the appearance of an old maid.
Things were changing for Selena. The day Guy’s divorce became final, he and Selena had their first official date although there had been a few weekend long sci-fi film marathons before then. One weekend wasn’t nearly long enough to watch fifty sci-fi movies. They had gone out for dinner and dancing. According to his kids, it was quite late when Guy finally returned home with a smile on his face. They were thrilled with the prospect that the relationship would continue.
According to Marylou, Max had learned that women could still look at men in a certain irresistible way. He wasn’t sure what that meant, but that night his wife had given the best hand job of his life. She had this look of fascination on her face when he came that was etched forever in his memory. Guy could only wish to be so lucky if some woman ever looked at him like that.
Guy’s kids were handling the divorce quite well. Ellie had gotten a part time job as a filing clerk at the office of the lawyer who had handled Guy’s divorce. She loved it and would come home from work talking about all she had learned that day. She was even more interested in becoming a lawyer. He didn’t doubt for a moment that he’d be invited to watch her cross the stage with law degree in hand.
Sean was taking advanced programming courses in high school and making good grades. After researching the job market, he was seriously considering a degree in software engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology. He had heard good things about their program.
The divorce had been hardest on Bill. He had been of the age where parents were still pretty much infallible. The initial hints that his father was cheating on his mother had shaken him. Learning for a fact that his mother was having an affair and had a sexually transmitted disease had turned his world upside down.
Max thought it funny that Guy credited the cat with saving Bill. Without even being asked, the boy had taken on the responsibility for feeding the cat and taking care of the litter box. It had to be the most pampered cat in the country. It wasn’t always a perfect relationship. Bill discovered the hard way that you don’t give a cat a bath. That was a story that provided a lot of laughs around the dinner table.
About a month back, he and his wife had found a website that they suspected belonged to Cody’s daughter. If so, then Cody had understated the degradation his daughter was ‘enjoying.’ He had mentioned that she was thinking of going into fetish material. He didn’t know about that. Some of the images looked more like rape than anything else.
The other day, he had gotten an email from Cody that he had sent to everyone. It was the first he had heard from the man since the day he had driven off for parts unknown. He opened it to read it again.
Hello, everyone,
I know that I kind of disappeared off the face of the earth. I thought I would let you know what happened to me after I left home.
My wife has always had a healthy sex drive. Occasionally, I would return home from work to the sight of her using her vibrator. On one particular day, I came home to find her on the bed pumping a fat dildo into her pussy. I coyly asked her, "Are you trying to make yourself a loose, little slut for me?" As I stripped off my clothes she responded, "Not yet, since if I did try, you would not be able to fuck me properly. Where is the fun in that?"I moved up and replaced my wife's dildo with my...

Roy sat in one of the more comfortable chairs on the patio with a circle of friends around. Elise returned to her chair with a glass of water for Roy, and a Southern Comfort Manhattan for herself. He looked longingly at the alcoholic drink as she sipped and talked to Pam. Dave said, “So, what is your physical therapy all about?” “I’m taking all sorts of blood thinners and other crap, so no alcohol for a while. I have a very long list of foods I am to avoid – carbs and fats, mostly. I am to...
Sometime during the night, another co-ed had snuck into Phoenix and Devon’s room in the sorority house and inserted herself into the lovemaking that the threesome had been engaged in. Amazingly, she’d brought two things with her when she arrived – her bathrobe and her test results from the day before. Both were quickly dispensed with. This time, Devon and Phoenix watched carefully as Dave gave Bonnie Lou something called The Experience. They all cuddled the naked co-ed to them awaiting her...
Susan said, “This sounds a bit like a cult.” Dave chuckled. It wasn’t the first time he’d heard the accusation about the Circle. In a way, every unique group was a cult in his mind. His old Christian church had been more of a cult than the Circle because of how they restricted everyone’s thinking to only the rules and such they wanted the congregation to adhere to, but then again, the Circle tried to select its members based on their own set of beliefs about life and love. Alice nodded at...
The video image flickered on the core’s largest screen television. Suddenly, a nice-looking couple appeared sitting side-by-side on a sofa twelve hundred miles to the north. The style of dress to accommodate the cooler northern weather was quite noticeable. A small box in the lower corner of the screen showed the local view and what they saw. Aaron spoke first, “Hi Martin and Sasha. We can see you fine. Thanks for the call. I have a cast of thousands here to meet you for the first time...
Dave started to move in and out, sawing well over eight inches of man meat in and out of Kat’s sex. As he moved, so did Sean in her ass, but without the long strokes that Dave could muster because of position and size. Kat’s eyes closed as she savored the rapture of the double penetration. Alice reached in with her right hand and started to stroke Kat’s clit just above where her husband’s cock entered her friend and husband’s lover. At one point she even had one of her tapered fingers enter...
Dave’s cell phone rang just as the Circle was finishing dinner. The call came from Aaron, his brother. “Hi, Big Brother.” “Bro, what’s up?” “Well, Shelby and I have the last week of February free and were wondering whether we could come and visit and take over your guest room or a room or two in that other house on your Circle? The weather has been sucky up here with no relief is in sight. We can both take some vacation time that week, so coming south seemed in the cards. If it’s...
As Dave, Holly, and Alice reached the patio, Shelby bounced up to Dave and plastered her nude body against his. They kissed like the world was about to end and the kiss would save everything, and then she reached down and fondled him. “Can we make love again? Matthew’s already gone for his grandmother’s.” “Where’s Aaron?” “He and Julie are probably fucking or making love or both in the pergola at the other end of the pool. We could go and join them.” She smiled, clearly indicating that that...
Wendy came into the cocktail hour from her home on the Circle. She looked concerned but not enough not to order up a glass of wine that she downed in nearly two gulps. She put the glass back on the bar for a refill. Dave said, “What’s wrong?” Wendy responded, “My mystery caller from Washington, D.C. called again just a little while ago. He told me he had a minor update on Dev. He said that his contact exchanged about three sentences with him about his mission. He said that Dev told him to...
The pair kissed and hugged, Alice’s generous bare breasts mushing against Dave’s manly chest and making him most aware of the sharp nubbins burrowing into his skin. She was aroused; so was he. He pulled her over on top of him, and Alice fondled his meat until the tip was rubbing against her navel. She rose up on one knee and sank down onto his shaft, totally enveloping him in a feeling of ecstasy for the two of them. “Oh, God. You are so satisfying – so fucking satisfying.” Dave chucked,...
Wednesday morning, Dave reminded Alice, “Remember I’m bringing my consultant lady friend home for dinner – Pam Hodge. You’ll like her. She’s smart, analytical, and very social. After dinner, I’ll drive her back to her hotel.” The couple talked about arrangements for dinner. Dave allowed as how he would drop some groceries off over the lunch hour, and Alice agreed to play chief cook that evening. The pair made a grocery list together and then left for work. Alice arrived home right at five...
Thursday just after five o’clock and as expected Dave brought Pam back to the house along with her luggage. He ‘officially’ situated her in the guest room, but they’d already talked about her staying in their bed. Alice had come home a half-hour early to be there to greet Pam. After their initial greetings, she told Dave she had also arranged for Owen to join them at dinner at a restaurant, and then for dessert at home. Dave smirked because Alice and he had started using the term ‘dessert’...
Friday evening, Dori and Alice headed off to the Club Ecstasy right after an early work. Dori explained that there was probably an hour of prep that Alice would have to go through before she was ready to dance. For one, she needed to do all the government forms that would get her paid; for another, there was extensive makeup required to give her an appealing but tarty appearance as one of the sexy dancers. Dori also wanted her to meet the bouncers, the bartender, and the other dancers. Dave...
With the wedding two days away, the Circle had become a rather festive place. There was chatter about bachelor and bachelorette parties, but the brides had all moved out of the Circle on Thursday morning to be with relatives or parents, and there was no big attraction about a bachelor party except for a few of the men that decided to go to the Club Ecstasy. There was no big deal made about it. Thursday night thus became more like one of the usual Friday nights were the couplings and sex were...
Amanda sat with Joan at the high-top table next to the bar. She asked, “Are there some significant pairings in the Circle? Aren’t some of the people here actually married? I kind of recall meeting several couples when I was here the last time.” Dave nodded, “Yes, but our pairings are unique and not in keeping with the expectations of someone from the outside, such as yourself. The main reason is the omission of possessiveness from the relationship equation. Carry that a step further, and...
Nikky was flying around the office wearing a cellphone headset and talking to someone while she arranged notes and papers on Dave’s desk. He waved at her and blew her a kiss. She held up a finger urging him to stand still for a moment as she ended the call. As Dave heard her end the call, she tore the headset from her head and came into his arms for her morning kiss and hug. “I love you.” “And I love you, Nikky Thomas. What are you going to do with me today?” “I’m going to have you meet...
The Friday night crowd was thick and mostly male. Many of the men seemed in the construction trades. The city continued to expand even despite the increasing number of articles in the news about rising tides and water levels. Club Ecstasy was packed. A number of Circle members were associated with the nightclub a.k.a. strip club at most times. About thirty members of the Circle had pushed together several tables to park their drinks and snacks on while they watched some of their friends and...
“Sarasota Approach Control, November-One-Two-Echo-Romeo with you at six-thousand landing Circle Airport east of Sarasota. We have information Oscar at SRQ.” Approach Control responded promptly, “Two-Echo-Romeo radar contact. Proceed on course. Descend to two thousand. When you’re on final approach, you may cancel with us and complete your approach. Altimeter is three-zero-zero-four.” Dave responded and then started the jet’s slow descent. He was west of Tampa over the Gulf of Mexico in the...
A month after the party where Jack, Grace, and Rachel joined the Circle, a small cluster of people stood on a knoll at the edge of the new property and watched the cavalcade of cement trucks coming onto the property the Circle corporation had purchased from Owen. The trucks were pouring the foundations and pads for the new homes they would all occupy in a few months. Dave said to Ty, “I can’t believe how fast this has gone to even start. Owen promises we’ll be living here before Halloween....
A few days later at Dori and Ty’s house, Dave got tapped on the shoulder. He turned around, “Are you still avoiding me?” Rachel asked in a pleasant tone. Dave counted back the weeks on two hands right in front of her. “Hmmmm. It’s been twelve weeks. You tell me how you’re feeling and let me think about it.” Rachel crossed her arms and then looked peeved, “I’m feeling a bit like a pariah with you, and that makes me sad. I still love you, but I think you accomplished what you set out to do,...
Aaron pondered Dave’s remarks about how much he loved Alice and the other women, including the comments about trust and friendship. He said, “But wedding vows are constantly broken or shattered. Look at the divorce rate.” Dave replied, “Look at the causes. I know I studied them to be sure we’re staying out of the traps. The largest reason, accounting for almost half of divorces, is incompatibility, so to combat that we spend time together talking about everything and every feeling we have;...
Taylor stood in the shower with her face buried in Dave’s neck. She kept kissing him and he returned the affection time and time again. Meanwhile, his left hand cupped Taylor’s right cheek and one finger toyed around in the crack of her ass. Dave’s left hand cupped her pussy as two fingers probed into her body. She was leaking cum from their earlier intercourse, but begged for a further session with him. “God, I love you, David Prentiss. If you didn’t already have five-and-a-half wives, I’d...
Visits by family members had been rare since moving into the Circle Cohousing Project. In part that had been due to the travel plans Circle members made before moving in and then over the holiday periods. One exception had been Aaron and Shelby. The thought had no sooner been formed at one of the dinner discussions, than the next day Dev announced that his parents and sister were making a Florida tour and wanted to stay a couple of nights, see the new home of their son and daughter-in-law,...
The bus ride from the Circle, north up Interstate 75, and then to The Meadows took precisely an hour. The atmosphere on the bus was pure ‘P-A-R-T-Y’ with lots of joking around and laughter. There were fifty-four passengers out of the seventy-seven Circle members plus Nikky. Of course, several lived out of state, but even then, Don Abrams had flown back to Sarasota from L.A. to see Cricket and to come to the party at the home of one of the few billionaires in the country. Mark Worthington was...
The following Wednesday evening just after dinner, Joan asked Dave, “Where are Alice and Pam? I thought they were going to be around here this week.” She’d brought her mug of decafé coffee over to join him after dinner Dave chuckled, “They are around here, just not here at the Circle. They’re sleeping inside a Cessna Citation over at the main airport so they don’t have to commute. They’re halfway through getting their jet ratings and are very serious about the process. When I talked to Alice...
Barbara was in the pool. Like many others on the patio she wore only her monokini. She was doing laps, but at a near frantic pace that Dave had never seen someone attempt in their new, larger pool. He wondered if she were out to set some sort of speed record. Dave and several others watched the perfect strokes as they heard her vocalized gasps for air when her head turned from the water. Her turns deserved to be in the Olympics they were executed so perfectly and so rapidly. If ever there was...
Dave had a habit of checking on the various rooms in the core to see how they were being used and what condition they were in just by occasionally strolling by. Some weeks he checked daily and other weeks perhaps not at all. He was on his round and opened the door to one of the relatively unfinished areas in the core. A hasty but colorful painted sign hung on the door said, ‘Art Studio’. He noted Colleen’s name and phone number under the words. He peeked into the room and saw Colleen...
The emergency departure of Dave, Alice, Wendy, and Sharon for Houston to ‘rescue’ Dev Connor did not go unnoticed by the Circle. Dave’s house had most of the residents there when the mysterious call came for Alice. Minutes later, Dave and Alice were heading for their airport at a run, needing to get to Houston. A few shouted comments gave about all the information they had at that moment about the situation. That news was shared between all of the Circle members within minutes. Further,...
After Wendy’s exit, no one made any further reference to the family. Those members who’d been at the short departure meet with Wendy briefly mentioned the family safety to each other and that was the end of the discussion. Everyone in the Circle and that knew the Connors were warned to never mention their name again and ‘reminded’ that they’d never known anybody by that name. The Circle Board made a decision to hold the house in the Board’s name, a point already executed in ‘official’...
“Mr. Prentiss, this is your friend from Houston. I believe the possible threat to you and your community has passed. Just so you know, the opposition visited about thirty other gated communities in your county. Vigilance is always recommended, but whatever their mission, they seemed unsuccessful. The two men we’d tracked went back to Colombia two days ago, and seem to have assumed their old jobs. We have reason to believe they convinced themselves that your friend is dead or that erasure is...
The relatively calm autumn came to a crashing end before Thanksgiving. There were a number of reasons for this change to chaotic behavior. Many in the Circle were affiliated with the university, most as students – students, most of whom, became frantic about the rapidly ending semester and the amount of course material they still had to digest in order to get a passing grade. About two-hundred Circle members and pledges, the largest number ever, decided to stay in Sarasota for Thanksgiving...
Dave made the rounds over the next three days as the opportunity presented itself for him to see every Circle member and affiliate. The question he asked was, ‘What do you think of Dale and Susan Harnett becoming Circle members?’ The response was uniform and enthusiastic, ‘Oh, yes. I’ve been treating them as though they were members, but certainly. They belong with us.’ When Dave had talked to everybody, he suggested to Dale that he and Susan stay over to the following Tuesday before...
Dave followed the directions in the email and downloaded the video Alice had sent him from the cloud account the family shared. He smiled to himself, already suspecting the pornographic content. He loved Alice, and given the decade or so they’d been married, plus their courtship time, he knew her well, both her old personality and her new one forged by the loosening up process they’d both gone through. He expected to be teased to edge of his comfort zone. The file was over 500 megabytes, a...
Brian and Joan came to me to pay their respects and thanks for attending the party before they left. Dave and Brian got in a small side discussion about work and the allotment of projects to a particular department. Brian remained stiff as a board. He also constantly shot looks of disgust at his wife. Joan was mute, having been clearly admonished not to say a word to Dave. While the two men were talking, Joan said to Alice, “I apologize for my attitude earlier. I acted like a spoiled and...
Since Matthew was due back in the afternoon to swim at the pool and be with Heather, the Circle cleaned up their act for the afternoon. Cleaning up their act meant no public sex, men wearing swim trunks or athletic shorts or other pants, and women wearing at least a monokini. Heather had schooled Matthew to understand that everyone made up a unique group of people, and so the partial nudity of the women among the men was ‘normal’. Dave got out of the pool from a swim with Donna, Nancy,...
Monday at work, Dave had a surprise visitor right before lunch. Nancy escorted Donna into his office with a grin. She said, “This woman from executive row told me she just had to see you today. Of course, she has no appointment, but she is kind of pretty, and I know how you like gorgeous sexy women...” Donna did a curtsey to both Dave and Nancy, who laughed. “I just had to come and tell you once more how much I enjoyed your party and EVERYTHING that happened around it. I’m especially...
Dori Winters breezed in the back door of the Prentiss house without knocking the following morning. This was not normal behavior between most neighbors, but once Dori felt you were her ‘true’ friend, she thought that complete access was her due. Dave and Alice were sitting at the breakfast table in the kitchen of their ranch house eating. Dori looked at the two of them and said, “Well?” She held her arms out, clearly expecting a full report. Dave laughed. “You put her up to some nasty stuff...
Saturday evening a couple of weeks later the four couples gathered at Dev and Wendy’s sprawling ranch house at the end of one of the neighborhood cul de sacs. Like the other homes, they also had a large pool, and this one had the added feature of complete privacy. None of the adjacent homes had a line of sight into their back yard and their home backed up to wetlands. The weather was again exceptionally warm, so only minimal clothing was worn to the usual get-together. Wendy had put the word...
Alice carefully placed the end of the one-foot ruler against her labia. She stood as tall as she could and still hold the ruler in place, and then moved her thumb to edge of the hem on her short skirt. She pulled the ruler up and looked where her thumb was; three inches. The dress had a freeway of three inches between the hem and her beautifully bare pussy. Alice smiled and looked at herself in the mirror again: short electric blue dress – hem higher than mid-thigh, what Dave had started to...
Alice followed Owen across the hall to another private room at Greg’s Tattoos establishment. Suddenly, she had ideas about a more elaborate couple of tattoos just to get Owen’s attention and tease him. Owner had her sit on the edge of the adjustable chair in the room. “OK, what’d you pick and where do you want them?” He smiled broadly at her, obviously remembering their passion the night before. “I want a small red heart on my left breast, about here.” She touched the outside of her...
Alice had heard mention of the term Sybian but had never seen one or fully understood what one was or did. Seeing it, she started to make presumptions about its use. Kat detected her lack of comprehension, and saw that Wendy also gave the device a questioning look. Kat explained, “Ladies, you straddle the saddle and put your pussy, especially your clit, on this little rubber beaded pad. There’s this dildo, too.” She placed a dildo into an orifice on top of the sybian so it locked in...
Saturday morning, Pam, Alice, and Dave awoke to the aroma of fresh coffee. Alice slipped a t-shirt over her naked body and went down the hall towards the kitchen rubbing her eyes awake. She ignored the small fact that she smelled like sex. “Good morning, Dori,” Alice said as she helped herself to a cup of the brew that her best friend had prepared. Dori was sitting and reading Dave and Alice’s newspaper that she’d apparently brought in from the front yard. “Happy Saturday. I wanted to be...
The format for the Club Ecstasy was different on Saturday night compared to the weeknights. The place intentionally became more ‘couples friendly’ with some regular dancing interspersed between the striptease performances, a live DJ for music that liked to fire up the audience, a chef in the early evening so the club could serve complete dinners instead of only bar food, and more traditional waitresses instead of some of the strippers doing double or triple duty. The club even had valet...
Although Nancy stopped work at the end of the following week because of her VERY pregnant situation, she continued to monitor the storms in the Atlantic and Gulf, and talk to Dave about the utility’s resource deployments during hurricane season. She watched hurricane Jerrod come ashore in Texas, but it rapidly deteriorated into a tropical depression, so did little damage other than local flooding. She couldn’t let go, and Dave kept telling her to relax, enjoy the time off, and prepare to be a...
The following week went by like lightning. The kidnapping and related police work faded away to only a few memories as textbook trials started and lawyer motions took over. The weather got much better. Matthew rediscovered the pool, and he turned eight years old. A few more babies hit the one-year mark. Scarlett was around for the entire week, mostly in the shade on the patio during the day reviewing the script for Road Trip or scanning several other potential screenplays. After dinner, to...
Taylor had asked for another pow-wow with the mothers that had talked to her about the Circle. She said there was no rush, so about five-thirty that evening Alice, Kat, Joan, and Nancy made it a point to be there with Taylor at the end of the childcare day. They each had their tots squirming in their lap. Taylor said, “I thought a lot about what you told me about the Circle. To put my remarks in perspective, I’ve only seen some hugging and kissing going on, and I’ve only met two of the men...
Dave lay snuggled in his bed between Athena and Taylor. He’d made love to each of them twice. Athena seemed more relaxed and talkative after watching Taylor and Dave make love. Taylor was in seventh heaven, and talked throughout the lovemaking sessions about how good it felt and how she never wanted them to stop. Cricket came in and joined the fray. She’d been with Dave’s brother and sister-in-law, and seemed very content and fulfilled. Dave teased her, “What are you going to do when Don...
Alice was quiet at cocktail time. She told Dave she was thinking about just how much she wanted to loosen up, so he left her alone and didn’t try to pry her thoughts from her as he might have otherwise, being a concerned husband. Pam was traveling, so also wasn’t around to probe. The next night at dinner Alice seemed to have reached some resolution. She was upbeat and amazingly alive. Dave commented, “You’re much different tonight than last night.” Pam, who’d come home that afternoon,...
Owen picked up Alice right at eleven on Sunday morning, as planned. Dave kissed his wife goodbye and helped load her suitcase into Owen’s Porsche. He gave a huge sigh as she drove away and said a small prayer. An hour later, Christie pulled up at Dave and Alice’s house. She was dressed in a pair of daisy duke shorts that were barely there and showed a lot of ass cheek, and a tight crop top that showed significant under boob and invited playing with obviously unclad and very generous breasts....
Owen roused Alice from her slumber beside him and as naked as he was. “Come awake my darling lover. We have a plane to catch. I want to briefly show you Rome before we head back to the real world.” Alice moaned, “Come and make love to me first.” Owen was so easy to convince. The serious moves to get from bed didn’t occur for another forty-five minutes. Three hours later, Owen’s plane set down at the Leonardo da Vinci Airport twenty miles from Rome’s center. A limousine whisked them into the...
Alice said, “I asked them not to tell you because I wanted to delay you knowing for as long as possible.” Mike also came into the room from the hallway just then, wrapped in a towel like the other men. “We’re about ready lady and gentlemen. Places please. All others, be very quiet and invisible.” Alice leaned to her sister and whispered, “We’re making an adult video – a porn film. I’m the star.” Julie gasped. All the little tidbits of information she’d been accumulating fell into place in...
Dave stood atop Kill Devil Hill on the outer banks, looking around at the landscape of beach and sand dunes on the North Carolina barrier island. He tried to imagine what it must have been like in the year 1903 for Wilbur and Orville Wright and their motorized glider aircraft that wasn’t much more than a kite with a clunky motor. He closed his eyes and tried to think what December seventeenth must have been like as their craft made three journeys across the dunes from the launch rail. The...
After reluctantly leaving Jessie’s home in Rochester, Dave meandered east across New York State. He had one particular destination in mind in the small town of Oneida – touring the Mansion House that had housed the most famous polyamorous communities in the world in starting in 1848 and that remained a symbol of one. Of course, the silverware that the community also produced went on to become some of the most revered, as well, but for Dave or anybody in the Circle, this place was...
Dave delivered Gabbie Carson to a flight back to Philadelphia on Monday morning from Dayton airport. She was able to get a ‘dead head’ seat on another airline and had to be at work the next morning. She’d be able to hitch a ride back to her home in Delaware from her roommate who was working on a red-eye flight from California to Philly. Their parting was teary on her part, but he promised he’d see again and even be one of her lovers again after she moved to the Circle. He also urged her to...
In the morning, Dave rode with Doris to a nearby tire store. They did have the correct tire size, except she needed two tires in order to balance on the car opposite each other. The bill was over four hundred dollars. Dave heard Doris asking if they had any used tires that could get her to Seattle. Dave stepped over to her, “This is on me. You can pay-it-forward. Besides that, I owe you some serious money for your coaching last night. I know you didn’t do that for free when you were back in...
Wednesday evening when Dave got home from work, he was surprised to see Jason and Robyn Riggs sitting at one of the high-top tables with Dale and Susan. They already had drinks. He walked over and said hello. Dale explained, “They were here on the weekend, and I thought I’d show them what a weekday ‘homecoming’ was like.” Dave chuckled, “OK. If you want to participate you need to take a little initiative to get things started then people will know it’s all right to cross a boundary.” On...
Jason and Nancy arrived at the same time from different directions. He had dressed casually for the office in shorts, loafers, and a golf shift, and although he looked casual, he also looked like a successful attorney and business-like. Nancy was wearing her monokini the same way Patti and Bobbie were at the patio table. Robyn was in sport clothes and Amanda was wearing both parts of a bikini. There was a round of greetings, and then everyone sat. As Jason and Nancy got to the large table,...
