Author's note: I wrote this novel out of sexual frustration during the months I spent working on an A.I.D. project in Oman, an extremely conservative Islamic state (no bars, movies, or extra women). It is copyrighted and is intended only for the private use of the readers. I would enjoy hearing from you.
Chapter 1 - Bromfield's Temptations
Louise's bra had disappeared while she was in the kitchen freshening our drinks. Her swollen, shapely bosom had come alive, jiggling and swaying under an unbuttoned, sheer white blouse.
She paused in the doorway and struck a pose, flashing a grin and a quick, conspiratorial wink at me before showing herself to our startled guests. Her erect nipples and puckered areolas had become tiny tents -- dancing smudges -- clearly visible in the dim light through the thin material.
Ignoring Sandra, my wife focused her attention on the young woman's husband. I couldn't see Louise's face, but I could well imagine how she might have smiled and run her tongue seductively over her freshly painted lips as she bent deeply in front of him, deliberately offering him a view of soft, pear-shaped breasts while setting the tray on the coffee table.
I watched her resume her seat on the couch next to him, and cross her legs. Her brief skirt seemed even shorter as a tantalizing glimpse of creamy bare skin appeared above her sleek stocking-clad thigh. It was amusing to watch Jeff's eyes widen at the sight.
With a muttered mock apology, Louise pretended to tug her skirt down, while Jeff nervously wiped his moist palms on his trouser legs and darted a guilty look toward his lovely wife across the room. Sandra also looked nervous and said hesitantly, "Don't you think . . ." but Jeff had already returned his attention to my Louise.
Sandra sat up. Her lovely features were worried as she said more insistently, "Jeff, we really shouldn't stay much longer. The sitter will have to get home."
Jeff nodded absently, his rapt gaze wandering between Louise's exposed bosom and her beckoning thigh, "You're right," he said with false enthusiasm, "We'll just finish our drinks and let these folks get to bed."
An uneasy silence fell. Louise cleared her throat and quietly said, "Jim, I'll bet our guests would like to hear that new CD you found to day." She turned to Jeff. "Jim is a Glenn Miller freak, but any big band from the `40s turns him on. Let him play this for you."
Nodding, I stood and opened the package. Then I started the CD player. The opening bars of Dorsey's Mood Indigo filled the room. I walked across the room to Sandra and offered my hand.
She hesitated, then shrugged and solemnly nodded. Kicking off her shoes, she stood, eyes downcast, and held out her arms.
She was stiff and uneasy at first, and I was careful to hold her formally. Then, gradually, as we swayed back and forth to the hypnotic strains of the music, she began to relax and I tightened my hold around her waist.
Abruptly she sighed, and, releasing my left hand, linked her hands behind my neck, pressing her slender body against me. I felt her firm little breasts against my chest. She smelled faintly of scented soap, and something else musky and erotic. For a moment, I wondered which of us was seducing the other.
I made certain, as we moved to the music, that my partner faced continuously away from the tableau on the couch, where Louise was flirting outrageously with Jeff. Although I had seen Louise in action countless times before, it never failed to arouse me when, as now, I watched her rub his thigh, then lean forward to give him a better view of her bosom. When she closed her eyes and raised her mouth to his, I tried to pull back from my dancing partner because I was afraid Sandy would feel my growing excitement.
I quickly glanced away when I saw him peer anxiously in our direction, then back in time to see him press his mouth tightly against Louise's. Even in the shadowy gloom, I could see their lips move as their tongues met and caressed.
Louise arched her back, straining her body up against his. He automatically cupped a soft breast through her thin blouse, while her little hand slid wickedly into his lap. The thickening excitement I felt was, by now, almost too powerful to conceal from my partner.
I was startled when Sandra murmured, her voice muffled against my chest, "Have they got it on yet?"
For a moment, I didn't know what to say. Sandra evidently had known from the beginning what was happening. I felt my excitement ebb as I asked, "Were we that obvious?"
Sandra tilted her head back to look searchingly into my face, her gray eyes dark with concern. "We may not act like it, but this isn't the first time we've been in a situation like this. Apparently, it's not yours either," she added dryly.
I glanced at the couch again. Jeff had, obviously, decided to hell with it. Louise's blouse was open, and Jeff's hand was inside, openly rubbing and fondling her breasts and nipples. As I watched, she leaned back against the couch, her eyes closed, one hand holding his hand to her breast, the other busy in his crotch.
I couldn't tell whether she had his fly open.
The shadow in Sandra's eyes suddenly disappeared and she grinned, bumping her pelvis against my crotch. "What happened?" she asked innocently. "Is this broken?" She ran her hand down my side in open invitation.
I tipped her face up and kissed her soft lips. As I tasted for the first time the sweet flavors of her mouth, I felt her lips part. She touched my lower lip with the tip of her tongue, and I felt a tiny jolt of electricity in my scrotum.
The dance was over. Louise had seen Sandra kiss me, and that was all she needed to know. She reached for the lamp next to the couch and switched it off. The room was suddenly dusky, lit only by the hall light.
I led Sandra to a big overstuffed chair across the room and sat down, pulling her down on top of me. She came willingly, and as she settled herself, she shyly fastened her mouth to mine.
Then she raised her head and looked solemnly into my eyes again. "We've done this only once before," she whispered, "I'm glad I like you, Jim. I could never do this with someone I didn't like." Then she added, "What are they doing now?"
I had been so busy unbuttoning her dress, now open to her waist, that I hadn't bothered to look. I peered toward the couch. Jeff was leaning back on the couch, his pants open and his legs spread far apart. Louise was naked to her waist and was on her knees between his legs; her head was moving up and down in his lap.
