June, 1812
Come the evening he instructed Mr. Muir and left the ship in his gig. There were several hackney cabs near the pier waiting for business and he selected the best looking one.
“Good ev’ning, Cap’n. Be of help?”
“My good man, whereto in this city do you drive officers who are ... out for a night of entertainment?”
A sly smile appeared on the man’s face.
“Corbley’s Revue Theatre, Sir, is where the prettiest doxies are. It’s a bit on the pricey side, nothing for the likes of me, but it’s where I bring the captains and such.”
“Well then, Corbley’s Revue it is,” Thomas said lightly.
It was still light and Thomas watched the route they were taking. The horse was none too strong or swift, but it was not far to his destination either. Stepping from the cab, Thomas paid the driver and looked at the place. He could tell from the outside, that this was a place where he would find only well-off men. The doorman scrutinised him when he approached, probably noticed the quality of coat, stockings and shoes, the quality of the sword, and the two epaulettes with anchors on his shoulders that identified him as a Navy captain of less than three years seniority.
Obviously, Thomas passed the inspection for the man held the door to the establishment open for him. He found himself in an entrance hall with sweeping stairs on both sides leading up to galleries. A man in gentleman’s attire approached him.
“Good evening, Captain. I am James Corbley, owner of this theatre and at your service. With whom do I have the honour?”
“Captain Thomas Grey, of the Dido frigate.”
“Sixth rate, 28 guns,” Corbley nodded. “You brought in quite a passel of prizes, Captain.”
“Yes, our squadron had a lucky week,” Thomas answered with assumed calmness. “I heard that your establishment provides quality entertainment for gentlemen, and I am in the mood to celebrate.”
“Then you have come to the right place, my dear Captain. Since this is your first evening here, I should probably make you aware of our rules. Our fee for an evening is £4 for guests in the pit or £6 for a private balcony. The fees include food and wine, the revue acts, and the attention of our ladies. Of course, you may feel free to reward them additionally at your discretion.”
Thomas nodded, trying bravely to control his features. That was quite a bit more expensive than a quick roll in an upstairs cot above a harbour tavern. Yet, he could afford it, and perhaps he should start to get some enjoyment out of the monies he’d made.
“I’ll have a balcony then,” he declared casually.
“Excellent, Captain! Let me show you the way then. Up the stairs here, mind the step, and now to the left.”
The balcony was just that. It was closed on three sides, and the balustrade was more than waist high, obviously to shield the visitors against curious eyes from other balconies. Down in the pit were numerous tables where gentlemen were dining and being served by young wenches dressed in gaily coloured dresses.
Mr. Corbley now clapped his hands, and six young women appeared. Their hair colours ranged from red and blonde to jet black, and their skin tones from pale white to milk coffee tan. They were all uncommonly pretty and quite young, and they wore dresses that complemented their personal colours. Thomas knew that his eyes were bugging out from his head over this bouquet of female beauty.
“I would ask you now to select one of these lovelies as your companion for the evening,” Corbley said with an indulging smile.
Thomas had settled his eyes on a lovely Creole girl with a trim body, proud and pointy breasts, a wide smile and a skin like coffee and cream.
“What would be your name, young Miss?” he asked.
“Florence, Sir,” the girl answered with a hint of a French accent and a shy smile.
“Well, Florence, will you spend this evening with me?”
She shrugged, but she smiled. “Of course, Sir.”
“Then let me help you to a chair, Florence,” Thomas smiled back, holding a chair for her. She sat gracefully and Thomas sat across from her.
“I shall send up my waiter, Captain. Please let me know if anything is not to your absolute satisfaction.”
Thomas looked at Florence and smiled. “A small chance of that, Mr. Corbley, but thank you.”
Corbley left them alone then, but before Thomas had a chance to talk to the girl, there was a knock on the door and a waiter appeared.
“Do you wish to dine, Sir?” he asked with a bow.
Thomas looked at the girl who smiled shyly and nodded. He looked at the waiter again.
“That would be appreciated. No soup though. It’s summer after all.”
The waiter nodded. “We have a small pastry of chicken and peas as first course, a choice of beef or pork roast with thick gravy as the main course, and fresh strawberries with cream as dessert.”
“Miss Florence, would you prefer pork or beef?”
She looked quizzically at him. “You captains of the Mediterranean fleet always go for pork and fresh potatoes. I’ll have pork.”
“Pork it is then,” Thomas concluded. The waiter left and Thomas looked at the pretty girl sitting across from him. “Do you know why we like to have pork?”
She nodded and her curly hair danced. “You get fresh provisions from the Barbary coast and there’s only beef to be had.”
“You know entirely too much about the Navy for a young and innocent girl,” Thomas said with a sad face. “You must have consorted with sailors before.”
Florence giggled. “Oh, but I’ve only listened to their tales. My dear mother would not allow me to be alone with them.”
“Right. And today is your first day here at Corbley’s?”
“Oh, yes. Circumstances dictated that dreadful decision, and now I shall be a fallen woman!”
“A sad tale to be sure, and worthy of being written down for the moral betterment of young ladies,” Thomas grinned, causing Florence to giggle. She looked lovely in the soft light from the oil lamp above. “Where do you hail from, my pretty Florence?”
“The island of Martinique. My mother married an English lieutenant and he moved us to Plymouth. Then his ship was lost leaving us without support.” She shrugged. “My mother had made a living before and she quickly found work again. She’s over there on the second balcony from the left.”
Thomas’s eyes followed her pointed finger, and he saw a beautiful Creole woman with an older gentleman.
“It’s Admiral James McCauley. He’s a widower and he always demands Mum when he’s here.” Florence giggled again. “He’d be off cheaper if he just took her in.”
“Are you getting a share of the fees?”
Florence nodded. “Six shillings down in the pit, ten in the balconies. It’s good money and Mr. Corbley is good at watching out for bad people who want to hurt girls.”
“I imagine that can be a problem. Don’t worry on account of me. I’d sit here all evening watching you and consider my money well spent.”
He was rewarded with a beaming smile of full lips and white, perfect teeth.
“You, Captain, are a sweet talker. My mum warned me about sweet talkers.”
“Why?”
Her smile vanished. “They make you feel like you’re a real girl, and then they leave and you know you’re nothing but a whore.”
Quickly, he took her hand and kissed it. “You are a real girl. You are witty, gay and so pretty that a man cannot but stare at you.”
“But you wouldn’t be seen with me in public,” she said sadly.
“I certainly would. Will you be free tomorrow afternoon?”
“Why?”
“So we can have a stroll and then enjoy tea in one of those fancy parlours.”
She scrunched her nose which looked very cute. “I’ll have to go through my dresses to find one I can wear in a tea parlour. Oh, wait! This is not an attempt to make you pay for one! I am sure I can find something.”
“Shall I pick you up here, or where do you live?”
“Here is better.” She smiled. “You wouldn’t want me to show up where you live either.”
“Well, I have a Marine sentry at my door and of course you’d need a boat.”
“I mean, where you live when you’re not sailing in a ship.”
“I left home when I was sixteen, and I’ve been back but once over four years ago. I’ve not seen my family in over three years. We live near Guildford by the way.”
“You’ve no bride?”
“No. My mother tried to pick one for me, but the girl married a general. She had higher aspirations than a mere commander, and she was entirely too pretty to be left at home for years.”
There was a knock, and the waiter and two helpers entered with their dinner. They set the table and placed the covered food on the side.
“Thank you, Frederick,” Florence said. “I shall serve the Captain.”
“Of course, Miss Florence,” the waiter said politely.
Thomas remembered in time to hand the man a half crown before he withdrew. Florence then took it upon herself to serve the first dish whilst Thomas busied himself pouring white wine into their glasses. Once they sat, he raised his glass.
“To a memorable evening!”
Florence smiled and nodded, clinking her glass against his and sipping of the wine. Thomas tried it too and found little to complain. The chicken pastries were delicious he found, with tender meat and elaborately spiced. At the very least, he would receive an excellent dinner for his money.
Florence ate with a good appetite and polished off her plate in short time. Seeing his astonished look, she smiled sheepishly.
October, 1812 After two weeks of cruising along the Spanish coast, Dido finally caught up with Commodore Clancy’s squadron near Tarragona. The squadron shortened sail to allow Dido to join, and before the night fell, Thomas had delivered the documents from the Gibraltar prize court to Clancy. Clancy had obviously overcome his consternation, and he employed Dido in a forward position as the frigates swept along the coast in a north-easterly direction. It was Dido that cut off a French...
November, 1812 After a quick repast, Thomas had a horse saddled for himself and set out to visit one of the tenants, one George Hanson, who worked a 60-acre parcel of land towards Horsley with his son. Hanson had been boatswain in Cormorant, and Thomas’s father had given him a tenancy when the old ship was broken up in ‘04. Hanson had taught the young Thomas seamanship, and of all the tenants he could be trusted the most. The ride was two miles over the small lanes of the different estates,...
Petitioning the Acting Governor went well. Yet, His Excellency was planning another soirée four days hence and would not pass on the chance to invite the Greys, if only to count two more members of the fair sex amongst his guests – namely Mirabel and Florence. Thomas and Mirabel accepted without hesitation for they both relished the thought of debuting as husband and wife, and Florence agreed reluctantly after conferring with Mr. Darby. On the day before the soirée – Unicorn was finally...
(May 1814) Thomas was pacing on his quarterdeck just so he could have a diversion and get out of his cabin. It was already quite hot during the noon hours in Valetta harbour. It was Rope Yarn Sunday too, a chance for the crew to wash and mend their clothes, to chat idly and to doze on deck. The purser had seen to it that the oldest water casks were hoisted up on deck, allowing the men to rinse their clothes in freshwater – a rare luxury for sailors. Bartleby had identified a woman on shore...
(June 1814) When HMS Clyde cast anchor in the bay of Valetta, the other ships of their small squadron had already returned. Whilst behind them the captured Jenny Girl, flying the Blue Ensign over her American flag, also dropped her anchor, Thomas watched another ship with interest. She was a large frigate, larger than Clyde, with 14 main deck gun ports and longer by at least 20 feet. Thomas guessed her to be a two-decker that had been razeed to a single gun deck, a procedure that was being...
(August 1814) The breakfast table at the Bennings’ house was filled a little more on the next morning. Melinda Curry sat opposite Thomas and Mirabel, between Florence and Teresa, and tried to blend in. Her two companions, also invited to share the bounty of the table, had refused in shock. Captain Curry may have treated them with consideration, but they had still been working for their livelihood. Now they hovered around Melinda, making certain that she was dressed and groomed to advantage,...
Once back in his ship, he therefore sat at his desk to update his latest letter to Mirabel, adding his plea to look after Teresa and assuring his intended that he was anxiously awaiting the day when they would see each other again. He explained his new tasks and expressed his hopes of returning to Gibraltar in the early autumn. When this was done, he called for Bartleby and asked him to bring in Teresa. The girl smiled at him when she entered the cabin. She had become very familiar with him...
HMS Clyde was lying at anchor in a balmy breeze, swaying gently in the minuscule waves. Around her were the other ships of the Mediterranean Fleet, all anchored securely in the Port of Toulon, the main port of the French marine. A few weeks ago, Clyde and her consorts would have faced red-hot shots being fired at them, but Toulon was now a city of King Louis XVIII of France. All along the coast, merchantmen of all sizes poured out of the French ports where they had been blockaded,...
And so began my sex education at the hands (and mouth and pussy) of my Aunt Florence and my lifelong love affair with nylon lingerie.Florence herself did not have much in the way of sex experience, but she knew when she felt good. So she experimented with me, and we learned together. Among other things, I learned why she didn’t have a pecker and how she peed without one. But I was always lured into it with the promise of her silky, sexy, nylon lingerie and the feeling I got from having it on...
December, 1812 When Bartleby returned three days later, it was to inform his captain that he had been able to reserve cabin accommodation on a sturdy brig headed for Penzance, via Plymouth, to weigh anchor in a week. Thus, after bidding farewell to neighbours and friends, Thomas and Mirabel, with Bartleby, left Guildford on the post chaise four days later. Mirabel was a little apprehensive, but she smiled bravely enough when they boarded the coach. The journey to Portsmouth was uneventful,...
September 1813 The weather, being inclement already, took a turn for the worse on the next day. Thomas was quite happy about this since it would make things easier for Rourke and his volunteers. Thomas spent the day performing his various duties, mostly at his desk with young Mr. Leeds in attendance, but he was also able to take his meals in the presence of his female companions. The thought of Mirabel returning to England was weighing on his mind nevertheless and the resentment it created...
Winter 1809/10 On the next morning, a boat from the shore brought two huddled figures in boat cloaks who turned out to be Mr. Paul Courtland and Mr. Erasmus James, recent graduates of the Royal Naval Academy at Portsmouth, who reported for duty in Tempest. Neither of them had been to sea before. Thomas received them in his cabin and studied their papers. Somebody in the Admiralty must have been possessed of a grim sense of humour, or perhaps they expected him to be more tolerant towards the...
February 1813 Three days later, with the last repairs finished and the last stores stowed away, Unicorn was ready to sail in the morning. After one last evening ashore and a delightful farewell offered by the lovely Florence, Thomas had come aboard late, but he was up before the first light to supervise the weighing of the anchor. Unicorn and Dido would sail together on their return to the fleet, always with an eye on catching some blockade runner. Dido was riding her anchor two cable...
September 1813 It took another four days before Unicorn and her consorts sailed for Gibraltar. The superintendent of the armoury agreed to return her previous ordnance of six-pounder long guns and 32-pounder carronades, six apiece. The carronades on the quarter deck had made her too top-heavy for Thomas’s taste. There was also a dinner at the Civil Commissioner’s residence to which the Navy officers were invited. The three frigate captains had to recount the action against the Berber...
Seven days after arriving at Sant’Antioco, the British ships weighed anchor with three of the prizes. The other xebecs had to be burnt, being far too damaged by Unicorn and Northumberland’s broadsides to be restored to seaworthiness. Dido was not joining them. She needed a replacement of her lower mizzen mast and was sailing straight for Gibraltar. She carried Mr. Treleven as passenger who had returned from the shore with a violent fever, no doubt caused by one of the dreaded agues that...
December 1808 With only three days left before Christmas, Thomas rode into Guildford on the next morning. He desperately needed new uniforms. The ones he had brought with him were by now three years old and a tight fit on his fully grown figure. He had never been able to have new coats tailored, never staying in one port long enough. He found the tailor’s shop where his old coats had been made and was measured for a new set and six new breeches. Shirts and cravats were also on his list, as...
“Sir! Persuant to your orders, we reached the Barbary Coast at Oran on the 4th instant, where we sighted two xebecs carrying furled sails, but no other sea-going vessels of note. No progress on the rebuilding of the harbour fortifications was in evidence, and we continued...” It was certainly a little awkward to dictate a report to a secretary, in particular if the secretary was a boy of fifteen years wearing an ill-fitting coat over much-too-large trousers, the best of what the slop chest...
December 1813 “Good morning, Sir Thomas! It’s past four bells, wind nor’easterly, ship’s still hove-to under double reefed tops’ls, flagship in sight to South!” That was Bartleby, waking his captain with a short report, freshly gathered on the quarterdeck, as had been his custom for the past four years. Thomas forced himself awake, acutely aware of the cold that permeated his sleeping cabin, made even worse by the damp bedding. It was a miserable and wet winter in the Mediterranean, and...
January 1814 It was impossible not to fall in love with his new ship immediately. As HM sloop Lark approached the large frigate, Thomas drank in the lines of the hull, the rake of her masts, and the excellent shape. Clearly, her previous captain had spent a considerable amount of his own money on the ship. From the gilded carvings around her stern windows to the masterfully applied paintwork the ship showed the affluence of her former captain. Lt. Warden hove to a cable length from HMS...
(August 1814) The dinner in the Clyde‘s cabin had been quite a success, not the least due to the fact that Captain Fortescue had excused his wife who was apparently suffering badly from the migraine. Nobody believed this, but then nobody was sorry, least of all Captain Fortescue who turned out to be a charming and sociable man. The talk at the table ranged from past deeds on board the Clyde to the situation in the small German dominion of which Sir August was the sovereign ruler again....
January 1808 One of Mrs. Pelham’s servants was waiting for Wolverine‘s officers at the quay to guide them to her house where their hostess greeted them effusively. “Welcome, gentlemen, and thank you for accepting my invitation!” “On behalf of myself and my officers, I thank you for hosting our celebration,” Benning answered. “May I present Commander Eckleson, Master’s Mates Wainbridge and Warner, and Mishipmen Boyle, Prideaux and Pons? You already met Lieutenant Grey at the governor’s...
January, 1813 The brig Darlington had been specifically built for transporting passengers and mail. She was under government contract to connect Plymouth and Gibraltar, and her passenger quarters were purpose-built and more than adequate. Thomas had his own cabin whilst Mirabel and Florence shared the adjoining one. Other passengers included an Army major, two Navy lieutenants on their way to new appointments, and the wife of a Gibraltar ship chandler returning from visiting relatives in...
Summer, 1812 Leaving Plymouth and Florence did not come easy to Thomas. Over the last three days of their stay, Thomas had spent every free minute with the young woman. On the last day, Florence had been miserable. Upon gentle probing, Thomas found out that she was disheartened over returning to her place of work in Corbley’s Revue. Having grown extremely fond of the girl but also under pressure to weigh anchor on the next morning, Thomas found a temporary solution. In a boarding house run...
One day later, Thomas received the special marriage licence from his Excellency, General Campbell. The aide-de-camp granted them the use of the Convent Garden for the reception, and the wedding was planned for three days later. The list of guests invited from Thomas’s side was short and included the officers of Unicorn and Dido, the port admiral and the helpful aide-de-camp. Mirabel invited a few gentlemen and ladies of her acquaintance, and of course Angela and Florence. In total, no more...
(August 1814) Mr. Augustus Leeds was of small build, with a shiny bald pate that reflected the candle lights in the entrance hall of his imposing city house. His clothing, expensive and after the latest fashion, bespoke his important role as a director of the Most Honourable East India Company, but he was all cordiality when he received Thomas and Mirabel. “Welcome to my home, Sir Thomas, Lady Grey. It gives me great pleasure to finally meet the saviour of my family. My dear wife and my...
Not a half hour after the squadron cast anchor in the harbour of Cagliari, the church bells across the town began to toll. A number of royal officials assembled on the quay, soon reenforced by Commodore Hastings in his splendid admiral’s uniform and by the captains of the two Sardinian sloops also dressed up in their finest. Then the first boats began to disembark the freed slaves. A crowd assembled on the quay to watch and cheer both rescued and rescuers, and then a military band appeared on...
Winter in the Mediterranean was a far cry from the miserable cold of the English Channel. Even with a cloud cover to block the sun, the temperatures off Oran, on the Barbary coast of North Africa, were pleasant. HM sloop Wolverine was anchored at a safe distance from the shore, protecting the convoy whilst xebec after xebec crept out from the city bringing sacks of grain to be loaded onto the transports. This was already Wolverine’s second such victualling journey. The British forces in the...
Summer 1809 Edgar Dumfries was missing at supper in the wardroom, and the doctor reported him to be fast asleep after an extensive bleeding. The mood was subdued and for once there was no evening card game in the wardroom. Thomas had the morning watch and turned in early, but he lay awake for some time before he was able to find sleep. During the morning watch, Thomas had too much to do to fret over Mr. Dumfries. To maintain position in a line ahead was a new experience for him, and he had...
“All hands to witness punishment!” The pipes shrilled through the ship whilst Thomas was standing on the quarter deck, overseeing the preparations for the flogging. A day before, the court martial under Captain Benning had found Able Seaman Ballard in violation of Article 22. He was disrated and sentenced to four dozen lashes with the cat, the worst flogging in Thomas’s personal experience. Captains could only mete out up to two dozen lashes, but a court martial had a wider...
December, 1812 One drawback of having the tenants reception on a Sunday after church was that Thomas had to go to church. He had been very busy the days before going over the records and the estate ledger with Mr. Conway, setting goals and allocating funds. He also took Mirabel into Guildford to have her measured for more clothes and other accessories which she would need. Mirabel of course protested against the expenses, but Thomas overruled her. If Mirabel was staying in Gibraltar, she...
(September 1814) Under its spanker gaff, the barge was slightly lying over to lee as it made its way upriver, easing things for the tow horses. They had passed the new lock at Teddington, completed only three years earlier, and were now approaching the even newer Sunbury lock. Thomas stood on the deck and watched the progress of the craft with mild professional interest. Excepting his journey from Bristol to Guildford almost six years before, he’d had no experience with river navigation, let...
March, 1812 It must have been his 10th time in over two years of sighting the Mediterranean Fleet Thomas thought idly as he timed his next manoeuvre carefully. As usual, Tempest carried the mail for the Commander in Chief, and that set the priorities. No sooner had Tempest settled on a course a cable length athwart from the flagship than his gig splashed into the water, and then he was racing down the Jacob’s ladder with the mail bag. Only five minutes later saw him on the quarter deck...
August 1808 The ships of the inshore squadron kept their vigil over the months of July and then August, and they caught a few more blockade runners. The French skippers became more crafty over time, or perhaps the less crafty had been weeded out, and they clung more closely to the coast. The French also installed more batteries along the coastline to give their shipping better protection. As Thomas knew, this was even good for the British. The guns placed along this coast – first...
Autumn, 1809 Over the next week, Sultan stayed at anchor waiting for orders to proceed further upstream for the planned attack on Antwerp. There were rumours that the commander in chief of the land forces, the Earl of Chatham, was delaying the decision whilst Sir Richard Strachan wanted to press the attack. Both nullified the other’s authority, and the result was that no action was taken. By late August, after the French had had time enough to shore up their defences of Antwerp, Chatham...
Jan 1809 Thomas was resting on his bed in The George and Serpent Inn. The inn was located at a convenient distance from the Admiralty where he would report in the morning. Mr. Egerton had indeed given him transport to London, but had not extended an invitation to stay at his house. One reason might have been the interest that Mrs. Egerton had shown in Thomas on that long coach ride. It was quite clear that Mr. Egerton did not trust any man in the presence of his cherished young wife. Thomas...
March 1813 Commodore Harold Hastings was a gracious host. He had welcomed each of his captains in person at the port, together with Captain Benning, and then led them aft to where his cabin had been prepared for the guests. He had been a successful frigate captain, and the quality of the foods and wines bore witness to his affluence. Northumberland was 15 years old, of 1900 tons burthen, carrying 32-pounders on her main deck and 18-pounders on the upper deck. She was one of the better 74s...
April, 1812 HMS Dido was sailing on a southerly course, holding the seaward position in a 20 mile-wide line of frigates that were combing the sea off the Pyrenees foothills. Cerbere had to lie due west Thomas knew although all they could see was a thin line of land on the horizon. Thisbe was holding the most landward position of their line at some two leagues from the shore. In perhaps an hour they would have to change course to southeast to avoid Cap de Creus which was jutting out from the...
Summer 1808 Thomas was standing on the quarter deck of HMS Andromeda, 32, and watched The Rock growing smaller in the distance as the ship made her way through the calm waters under full sail before the moderate westerly breeze. Captain Benning had retired to his cabin once they were under way, and Thomas still had most of the Forenoon Watch ahead of him. It was his first watch in Andromeda under sail and as such exciting enough, but he could not help thinking about the sweet woman he had...

It was hard to paint with thoughts of that afternoon coursing through my brain. I couldn’t believe what I had done, or how badly I’d been fooled. I resented Kayla and Eva, but I resented my naiveté even more. I had played right into their hands. Sucker indeed. I started my cleanup routine a while before three, having completely forgotten that Marla had asked me to stay late. The earlier ordeal had all but suppressed any further thoughts about her, except to consider her a stern authority...
With many tears, Debbie moved. Betsy stayed in contact with her for several years, but by and by, the letters and phone calls stopped. She still thought of her dear friend every once in awhile and felt immense regret for not keeping in closer contract with Debbie. Then Betsy realized their friendship was just like any other. They would always care immensely for each other even if their heartfelt emotions faded with time. The winter came and went. Thomas met her family and Betsy even...
Thomas By Margaret Jeanette Jenny Powers was in her office going over the week's events. Every Friday at 11:00 A. M. she had her secretary come in to take notes of the weeks happenings. She spoke to her secretary, "Angela, it's been a very good week for the company! We picked up two new clients and it looks like we may need more help if this keeps up. You know a year ago when I took over after my father's heart attack we had 5 employees. Now we have 11! When dad recovered from his...
When Misty showed up at one of the local association meetings Thomas belonged to, he was full of lust for her immediately. She was very beautiful. She was dark skinned. She was Asian and Afro-American, with gorgeous results. She had long straight coal black hair and beautiful smooth silky skin. Her eyes were brown but very bright and she had a beautiful smile with a heart shaped face that would make your heart stop when she smiled.Her body was spectacular. The thing he noticed right away was...
InterracialShirley Braithwaite was not a happy woman. Having just turned the wrong side of 40 she was happily married for the past 19 years to her school sweetheart Brian. The marriage had produced 4 children, Sarah who was 18 and Zoe who had just turned 16. The other 2 children were Alexander who was 15 and the youngest child being Thomas who was 12 years old. Mrs Braithwaite was not happy because like most mothers she wanted a daughter who would be a girly girl, someone who enjoyed...
Misty and Thomas finally fell asleep in each other’s arms around four am. Thomas woke up at about eight am and had to piss so badly he wasn’t sure he would make it to the bathroom. He rolled over from Misty’s warm body and ran into the bathroom to relieve his needs. While he was in there he showered and used her razor to shave. He wrapped a towel around his waist and came back into the bedroom. He saw Misty lying on her back in the big bed still sound asleep. His cum was gone from her stomach,...

InterracialBetsy readied herself for the next chapter of her life story. She was lying comfortably on the bed in her spare bedroom and quickly fell into a dreamlike state. Her relationship with Phil was over and now she dearly wanted to reminisce about Thomas. Betsy had met Thomas, even had a torrid affair with him, during her relationship with Phil. Now her mind drifted back almost twenty years. With the official end of summer, she got home Monday evening feeling sad. Betsy was sad remembering the...
Betsy rushed back to her spare bedroom wanting to finish the chapter, 'A Thomas Affair.' She recalled it was late October when they returned from Atlantic City. Thomas had told her all about Ted and explained, as best he could, about how much he relied on the business from Ted's company. Apparently Ted was so pleased after the weekend getaway that he set the wheels in motion to upgrade the pharmacy section of his company, which meant big money for Thomas. Strange what men were willing to...
My forty-year-old wife, Priscilla, can’t keep her hands off of young boys. Her latest target is the sixteen-year-old lad, Thomas, who cuts our grass. He usually works shirtless, dressed in denim cutoffs, sneakers and no socks.He’s about five-ten, slim, slightly muscular, blond hair and rather handsome. When he shows up to do our yard my wife will call him in to the kitchen so that she can apply sun block before he starts.“We can’t have you getting sunburned,” she tells him.Prior to his arrival...
BisexualHer three years with Thomas were so satisfying for Sowmya that she completely ignored Ganesh her hubby, with whom also she fell in love and got married. Though in hindsight it appears that he was the fall guy. No one would believe that she would fall for a wimp like him. The rumor mill says that she was already carrying Ashwath when she snared Ganesh. Now it looks all the more true as Ashwath’s darker complexion was not in sync with her milky fairness or Ganesh who was also fair. Coming back,...
