Everybody knows that estate auctions are a crap shoot. A lot of the time, you wind up bidding on things that you never intended to buy, but wind up lugging them home anyway since they were part of the auctioneer's impromptu "set."
To be fair, it was a nice clothing trunk β it had the telltale signs of hard use, but it was still in excellent condition otherwise, plus it still had the key for its locking lid. It seemed nothing at the time, but it was as if I couldn't stop myself from bidding on the trunk, my hand being drawn aloft each time I got outbid. The trunk wound up costing me a little more than I would have originally spent, but it was still a reasonable price after the other bidders dropped out.
The strangeness started after I got it home. It was fairly late by the time I returned, so I simply lugged the trunk into living room of my bachelor apartment. I noted that the trunk certainly wasn't empty, but I was too tired that night to care. I had just enough energy to strip and fall into my bed.
That night, I had a vivid dream of a tall and seductive woman with long black hair and a pale complexion. She was dressed in transparent body stocking the color of smoke with a black satin corset worn over it. I seemed to be rooted to ground, unable to move or speak as she stood before me, looking down upon me. Her green eyes regarded me coolly, yet there was a fire there, warm and alive as she looked me over. Her full red lips glistened with fresh lipstick. I watched her mouth move, but could hear no worlds. And then she smiled at me...
...and I awoke just in time to meet the floor. I had become tangled in my bedding during the night and had rolled off. I noticed that I had a very hard erection as I untangled myself and headed to the shower.
After I cleaned up and had a quick bite of breakfast, I turned my attention to the trunk. I pulled an old wooden straight chair from the kitchen up to the trunk, sat down and went to work on its lock. It took a couple of tries to get the stately post and flange key to turn the old tumbler lock, but as soon as it was done, I carefully lifted the lid. Even as I did so, I caught just the faintest hint of exotic perfume, but it was gone almost as quickly as I detected it.
My eyes widened as the light caught the uppermost layer of its contents. Silky lingerie shimmered in the morning light β panties, bras, stockings, garter belts, corsets, slips and more lay there. All of it was fairly modern pieces of clothing β some of it vaguely familiar, as if I'd seen it on a model in some mens magazine a year or two before. A sudden wave of desire surged through me, and before I truly aware of what I was doing, I had closed the lid again and made sure all of the shades were drawn.
I'd always had a sense of fascination with lingerie, as some of my first sexual fantasies involved the women in the lingerie section of a department store catalog. When the upscale intimates stores and cosmetics buy-at-home franchises began printing catalogs in my teens, I amassed quite a collection.
At times, when I could shop some distance from my home town, I even made purchases of those forbidden pleasures β to be worn and enjoyed for a night or two, and then disposed of as the urge and the novelty wore off. When I had intimate friends, I would buy them beautiful and sexy lingerie to wear, though none of the relationships ever seemed to last.
When I returned to the trunk, I gently lifted the lid again. I don't know how long I just sat there staring at the contents, but the longer I stared, the more I wanted to put something from the trunk on. Eventually, I settled on a pair of relatively plain black nylon panties.
My heart was pounding as I held them up, fondling the slick translucent fabric in my fingers. I quickly kicked off my own cotton briefs and I slipped the panties on, slowly drawing them up my legs until they settled around my hips. The fabric was sinfully soft and deliciously smooth, caressing my skin, gently embracing my hips and buttocks.
The reaction from my manhood was surprisingly strong. My erection was rapidly distending the front panel of the panties as the head of my cock strained against the fabric. For a fleeting instant, it felt as if I belonged in these beautiful things β like I was always meant to wear them.
I stood there watching my erection mount in its silken cocoon, seemingly unable to do anything but watch it happen. Suddenly, I felt very silly, standing there β I should just take them off and find somewhere to stow the rest of the unmentionables. I started to remove the panties, when I realized I couldn't.
I twisted my head and arms around and saw that a stocking from the trunk had somehow twined itself around my wrists in a perfect tangle. I made an exclamation of surprise, and then sought to shake myself free.
