Prologue: I don't know about you, but sometimes the more erotica I read, the more everything sounds the same. You know, like the coveted cocks are always 10 or 12 inches (always an even number, though) and "as big around as a wrist." There is always precum dripping. And the sex proceeds in more or less predictable ways (maybe that's because the variations are relatively finite with three orifices in women and two in men. And finally, there is rarely any suspense or tension created, rarely any character development. I know a lot of readers want the turn-on experience, "so cut to the chase." To me, though, it's the frisson or friction between characters that creates the sexual interest, and it's how that develops and manifests leading to character change that makes the piece believably interesting and unique. There are Literotica writers here that do all that very well, and for me are really fun to read.
Just to let the reader know, this story has no cock size mentioned, no precum, and the sex may, in some reviewers' opinions, be relatively tame, but as it really happened that way, it should be totally believable. It tells an origin story and only begins to introduce the characters. But Chapter 2 is in rough draft form and Chapter 3 is steeping as i'm sleeping. Thanks for reading this intro, and a bigger thanks for reading the entire piece. And, by the way, it is gratifying to have you leave a number rating, even if you don't have time to write a comment.
Lisa sat cross-legged with her back to me in her sexy silky underthings: deep plum bikini panties, fashioned with one side solid and the other, lacy. On top she wore a matching bra. Considering her age, and despite a little extra skin folding over the waistline, she still had that iconic hour-glass form from behind.
I was likewise naked except for the red silk thong she had requested I change into, and although I was relatively thin and tall, age had given me a little extra padding as well. She had smiled, as I re-entered the room in my silks, so I took that as affirmation that at least she was not turned off.
We sat on a twin-bed-size slab of memory foam covered with a flannel sheet in front of a roaring woodstove fire, which made the room invitingly comfortable. A Loreena McKennitt playlist was filling our space with music from a cylindrical speaker on the coffee table. The only light came from lancinating yellow-orange flames through the stove's glass front, providing a warm glow to our skin and a glistening fluorescence to her red hair. Rounding out the sensations were a hint of rosemary fragrance from her shampoo mingling with trace scents from the split birch, oak, and maple logs stacked nearby.
Lisa reached over to the coffee table, retrieved and handed me her hairbrush. I began dragging it through her thick, flaming hair. It had been earlier washed, toweled off, then air-dried, she had explained, apologizing for the tangles at the ends. That compelled me to linger with each stroke, not pulling the brush through too quickly. When I reached the snarls, where resistance was met, I gingerly extracted the strands so that there would be no uncomfortable jerk.
Sometimes I pulled her hair from her left scalp over to the right, covered her ear, and then combed it out from the middle of her forehead down her back. To continue some semblance of symmetry though, I repeated the mirror-image action.
Stroke after stroke after stroke, I repeated the motion and soon the tangles vanished. Combined with the music's swaying effect, her rocking motion, gently left and right, or back and forth with my brushing direction, signaled that my patience with her hair care was having a seductive and hypnotizing effect.
I don't know if it's a sense of power it gives me to pleasure a woman and to bring her slowly through arousal to orgasm, but I wanted that experience. Maybe it was to be regarded as a good lover. Perhaps I was on a quest for the quintessentially perfect erotic experience with both of us climaxing at the same time. Or maybe it was something else. I didn't really know. But right now half of what sex and love-making was to me was missing with my wife.
I'm a man, a bisexual man, or maybe a pansexual man. I've heard men explain the terms differently. My therapist called me undifferentiated. So I'm that: open to all genders. I am 69 years old, and I really enjoy sex. I guess I love sex with someone I know and trust and with whom I can have an emotional and intellectual connection, because sex is transformed into making love when that happens. Or at least that's how woman-sex has been for me.
I still get erections, but they're not exactly with the spear-chucker's rigidity that they used to be. I've taken Viagra just to see what it was like and that does give me an 18-year-old's boner. I've kept some on hand as a treat for the rare occasion when my wife wanted a "big fuck" as she called it. The operative word was "when," because for the last several years she's really felt no desire at all to have sex or to make love.
Not that she's against my having sexual fulfillment when we're together. As a matter of fact, for her, the pleasure has recently come in bringing me to the proverbial edge a number of times, watching me hover there on the precipice, arms metaphorically flailing to keep my balance, then sending me hurtling over into an orgasm chasm. That has been fun for her, and for me as well, but as she didn't enjoy being pleasured in return, that part of my sexual play was therefore lacking.
But from what I am coming to understand, she is not the only one—the only woman over 60—who feels that way about sex. I shouldn't be surprised that a woman who is 68 would not have the libido that a woman in her 30s, 40s, or 50s does. After all they've gone through menopause, and not only are their estrogen and progesterone diminished or gone, but so is their testosterone, which is the source of the sex drive, from what I understand. But somehow, Lisa was different, which both mystified and excited me.
Lisa had asked me to brush her hair because it had always been arousing to her in the past. But that had been almost a decade ago. It seemed obvious to me that her responsiveness hadn't changed. Brushing her hair was so entrancing in fact, that she did not need to speak and let me know by voice the pleasures she was succumbing to. Her beguiling movement told me all. And as I was repeatedly drawing the brush down and through her hair, I became aware of what was drawing up and against the red silk of my thong.
How I got into this position was both direct and circuitous; intentional and serendipitous. I had reasoned that although post-menopausal women may lack testosterone, older men still have plenty of it, and therefore a potent sex drive. So being bisexual, it only made sense for me to search for other like-minded married men, whose wives were not interested in having sex, but who were, like me, interested in a physical connection with another married man. I also felt it would be easier to justify having sexual intimacy outside the marriage if it were with another man, reducing the risk of my wife feeling inadequate as a woman and as my life-partner. That was a reasonable assumption and it had potential, as long as I could find a man whom I liked and therefore with whom I could feel vulnerable and thereby develop an emotional connection.
But it wasn't as easy as I had hoped. The first man that I really felt close to, and got to know really well, found me "not his type" after we made love one night. Eventhough he told me that he had never had a man who really took his time with him, and knew how to handle a penis like I did that night, that relationship didn't go anywhere sexually afterwards, except that we stayed close friends.
I met another man who I initially liked, but who talked so incessantly about himself that I never felt important to him. He was the first one to have taken my anal cherry, so to speak, and although it was pleasurable, I didn't feel like it was out of love, more out of compliance with my request to be fucked.
My third married man I liked, too, but it didn't seem like we were going to get anywhere because, feeling fearful of discovery, he wouldn't allow me to even know his name, just his initials. Moreover, he didn't want to be seen in public with me, even though I countered that we would just be appearing as two men who were friends. His resistance, therefore, made it hard to get together spontaneously and to share experiences, and therefore, prevented our becoming Intimate. So I emailed him that we should break it off.
So, my three failures to find a married man made me even more pessimistic about giving it a fourth go.
Maybe it was that, or perhaps something about myself that I hadn't figured out. For some reason, I began craving a relationship with a libidinous woman again. That changing polarity—finding myself fantasizing about men one day, but then about women the next—bothered me. Why couldn't I make up my mind, settle on one gender, and be satisfied with that. But I couldn't.
What that ambivalence did, however, was lead me to the internet in another direction: to look for couples, married or attached and either bisexual, bi-curious, or at least open to the possibility. That way I could get both gender-needs fulfilled simultaneously.
