Second Part of
The Unspoken Society
series. In the previous story,
An Invitation
, Traci and Justin are invited to join a mysterious, intimate club.
We got our final instructions Wednesday and made intimate love that night. I think we wanted to connect before doing something so significant. Friday came, and we cleaned up before I went over to pick up Traci. We got to the hotel right at 5:30 and found everything as described. We went to our room and stored our small overnight bags. At precisely 5:45, we heard a knock at the adjoining door and opened it.
A robed and masked couple entered the room. The female stepped forward. She carried herself with confidence. I could see her sparkling and intelligent eyes behind the mask.
"Traci and Justin, thank you for joining us this evening. For tonight, I am Cindy."
"And I am Joe," the male added, stepping forward. He also carried himself well, and his eyes showed a keen mind behind them. They both extended hands and we greeted each other.
Joe continued."I'm sure you want to find out what's going on, so let's get started. First, let's all power down our phones and put them in this box. I trust that you don't have any other recording devices?"
All four of us put our phones away.
"We are going to do what we described in the message. Before we ask anything of you, we want to give you our full assurance that we are sincere, we care about you, and we value your privacy. We are serious students just like you who care about their reputations."
Cindy took over. "So we offer this token of our sincerity."
At that, they both shrugged off their robes and let them pool on the floor.
I heard Traci gasp at the same time she must have heard mine. Both Cindy and Joe were striking, attractive, fit, poised. And completely naked.
Cindy stepped forward and took my hands in hers. Joe did the same with Traci. Cindy looked directly into my eyes.
"Justin, I swear to you that I am completely telling the truth. Our club exists, and we want to interview you for membership. We will keep this interview totally private, only giving a summary to the club. We want the best for you and will not violate your trust. Do you have any questions about that?"
"No. I trust you."
"Good. Joe?"
Joe gave his own version of the idea to Traci. She replied with her trust as well.
"Excellent. We will redress and start the interviews if you are ready. Any questions before we begin?
I gave Traci a hug and a kiss, and I noticed that both Cindy and Joe observed everything between us. They put their robes back on. Cindy took my hand while Joe led Traci into the other room, closing the door behind them. Cindy closed our door, then she put some soundproof material underneath.
"Best to keep out distractions. Would you join me at the table?"
I did, and she sat and turned her eyes on me.
"Justin, what does trust mean to you?"
The next hour and a half went by in a blur. Cindy was good—damned good. We engaged in a very friendly, easy conversation, but I found myself telling her every story and nuance I knew about trust, discretion, and jealousy. I knew what she was doing, but I opened up anyway. Why not? She was going to find out what she wanted.
Suddenly, it was over.
"Thank you, Justin. I appreciate you opening up. We made excellent progress. I'm going to check how things are going next door."
Cindy knocked a pattern on the door, and it opened in a couple of minutes. Joe walked Traci in.
"We're going to compare notes for a minute," Cindy said. "Please make yourselves comfortable."
Traci and I held hands, silently thinking over what we had gone through. After only a couple of minutes, the door opened again. Joe started this time.
"In your interviews, you both displayed traits we are looking for. We would like to move into phase two, where we entertain you for the evening. To make it clear, that will include lovemaking. Justin, I'm going to make love to your girlfriend, while Cindy does the same with you. Are you two comfortable with this step?"
"We discussed this before we came," I answered. "Traci, where are you now?"
"I am still in," she answered clearly.
"I am also," I added.
"Fantastic," Cindy stated. "Any final questions?"
We both answered no, then I took Traci and gave her a tight hug.
"I want you to enjoy yourself," I whispered in her ear.
"I want the same for you. Show that babe a good time!"
We laughed and kissed, then took our partner's hand and moved to our separate rooms.
Cindy went over to the sofa. She patted the seat beside her. "Join me?"
"Love to."
"Okay, Justin. You did well in the interview. Any questions?"
"Psychology major?"
Cindy laughed. "Minor. I got interested when I joined the club. I was able to create a bespoke program where I get to try out a lot of cutting-edge methods for interviewing."
"I noticed that you kept it friendly but really zeroed in on what you wanted to know."
"The interviewee speaks much more candidly if you keep them comfortable. And thus the art—keep it friendly but keep it focused. Speaking of friendly, how about some appetizers?"
I agreed and Cindy went to the mini fridge and pulled out a folding cooler. I helped her arrange a collection of tasty morsels. We sampled them, then I asked my own question.
"What do you think? Will we enjoy the club?"
"Yes."
My eyebrows went up.
"I know you expected a bunch of 'it depends' wavering, but we're done with the formal part of the evening. Justin, you're going to love it. A bunch of good-looking, smart students who have agreed to trust each other? It makes for some fabulous sex. And we work with you to keep your own relationship vibrant within that environment."
"Sounds too good to be true."
"It almost is, but we work hard to maintain what we have. That partly explains the extensive vetting we do before inviting a couple to join us. Justin, you and Traci have been on our radar for a while. We have a member who has observed each of you closely. You will recognize them if you join the club."
"Speaking of which, let me tell you a little more. We meet roughly every two weeks. Some members can't make it, but we encourage everyone to come at least once a month. We do several things at these meetings. We often start with classes. We teach everything including how to dine, how to make conversation, how to date, and how to make love. We have advanced topics. You can learn about BDSM from a real Dom/sub pair. That's a popular class, by the way."
"We also encourage members to go on playdates with others. We keep a dining area where you meet your date for dinner. Other members volunteer to serve. You can date a partner and take her to bed in the same evening. We want our members to enjoy the college side of casual dating and casual sex, without the drama and problems in the wild. And you keep your main, steady relationship the entire time."
"How does this work? We will give you detailed instructions before you make a final decision, but we basically recruit and maintain couples in the club. And we are exclusive. You can fuck anyone you want in the club, but no one outside. We will make you swear to that. We don't use protection in the club, so everyone gets tested once a month."
"We also want you to maintain your relationship with Traci. In fact, we will help you grow it. Of course, we understand that couples break up. If that happens, we will help you find another relationship in the club, but if you date outside the club, you will have to resign. You can petition to rejoin with your new partner, but the vetting and interview process applies."
"We also do field trips throughout the year, often organized by alumni. Art galleries, beaches, outdoor activities—these are a few of the things we do. Of course, we spice the evenings up with romance."
"The benefits of the club extend beyond graduation. We have an alumni network that stays in touch. Many of our members marry and continue their social association with other alumni the rest of their lives. They follow the same rules about discretion, trust, and exclusivity."
"So there are tremendous benefits. We have a few guiding principles to protect that. Don't talk about the club to anyone outside the club. Don't have physical relationships outside the club. Respect other members and their unique selves. Honor your permanent partner and seek help from us if jealousy creeps in."
"Sounds reasonable."
"You will get a more detailed version to affirm, but that's the gist."
We discussed a few more aspects of the club, then I heard a knock at the main door. Cindy waited a minute.
"Dinner. Would you mind picking it up?"
I went to the door, opened it, and found a basket in the hallway. I brought it back and unpacked while Cindy set the table.
"Too bad I can't offer you wine, but we keep our interviews very above board. No underage drinking to worry about. I'll try to make it worth your while."
"I have faith."
Cindy laughed. "Let's stop the shop talk and get to know each other a little over dinner. I wanted to do this, you know. It's not just a job."
"I wasn't sure what to expect, but after meeting you, I'm all in."
"Fantastic. Now, let's serve each other, then tell me your favorite time with Traci. We're not jealous or awkward here. We talk about girlfriends and boyfriends all the time."
