Bob finished his third set of behind the neck lifts when Olivia sauntered down the stairs.
"All pumped up and nowhere to go?" she asked in that clipped New England contralto he found so damn sexy because of its very strangeness.
"Male version of those 'robics what keeps your derriere tight, your sweet belly slim, an' gives you them horse ridin' thighs."
Olivia tossed back her cascade of soft, dark curls and straddled the bench in front of him. "Do go on. I love it when you talk dirty. Especially about me."
"Much as I regret to say this," Bob observed in his slow Southern drawl."Y'all might not want to get too close to me just now. I've been sweatin' like a big dog."
A long, slender finger traced its way around Bob's jaw, down his throat, between the exertion hardened pectorals and down hard ridges of belly to the quickly filling front of his shorts.
"Like a big dog, you say?" She traced his arousal through the thin material between his thighs. Abruptly, she stood. "Hold that thought," she called as she swayed back up the stairs.
Bob swore, good naturedly. He shed the constricting garment and equally binding jock strap, then picked up the hand weights to begin arm curls. Bob glanced at the stairs and swore again. What he really wanted was a shower and Olivia, or better yet, a shower with Olivia. But, when they had first gotten together, Bob had sworn to himself he would not let himself go like so many of his friends down home after they had gotten married. His passion for Olivia had become his religion and paid off in the kind of coital bliss about which most people only ever dreamed.
Bob sighed as he pumped the iron until the sweat in his eyes caused him to seek the towel on the wall.
"So tell me," he heard her say. "What would a big old Southern dog such as yourself do should he encounter some sleek rich bitch poodle on the street?"
Bob turned to her. His appreciation made itself known by the increasingly pendulous weight at his groin. Olivia had parted her hair in the middle and tied it on either side of her head with pink ribbons. A tight pink sleeveless crop top sweater stretched tight against the firm lushness of her dusky breasts. She wore nothing else.
"What kind of dog did you say you were?" she asked, dropping to her hands and knees.
Bob crawled over to her. "Ah ain't nothin' but a hound dawg."
"And just what would your typical hound dog do in the presence of a lady of refinement and noble breeding?"
"Well," Bob drawled as he circled her. "First off, Ah'd be a gentleman an' make the lady's acquaintance." He brushed against her thigh, his stubble raising goose bumps off the smooth olive toned flesh.
"How would you do that?" she inquired.
"Sniff her butt." He caressed his way over to the slender division of her ass. The taut buttocks tightened against his face.
"That's all? Just sniff her butt?"
"Why, no, ma'am," Bob protested. "If'n I liked what I found, I might even lick it."
He drew his tongue languorously around the curve of her ass, over the slight dip and around the other mound of slightly quivering flesh to the soft ridge between her cunt and anus. A little faster, he drew his tongue up, caressing her dark outer rim. Olivia stifled a sigh of her own as he began the circuit again, firmer and faster, moving ever closer to the spicy opening until he was nipping at her satiny skin, and drawing his insistent tongue directly over Olivia's anus as it puckered involuntarily, then relaxed into a more open position.
So it surprised him when she whipped around and nipped him on the shoulder, drawing the barest trace of blood with her sharp, white teeth which she bared at him.
"What?"
"Maybe this fine bred canine isn't too sure she should consort with a mongrel of uncertain antecedents. Maybe she's been warned about the dangers of associating with someone of a lower station."
