They say power corrupts. They also say that money is power. I'm going to tell you that the correlation is true as well. Money corrupts.
I was in my early forties. I played the lottery on occasion and on one of these occasions, I won. I mean I WON! I didn't win a 9-figure jackpot; it was only 8 figures, but it was large enough that after signing for a lump sum disbursement and Uncle Sam taking his, I STILL had 8 figures. Well, I did until my wife of 22 yrs divorced me. She took her half and went to live in some art community. I was still financially set.
I called several different financial advisors and found four I liked. I started an account with each of them with a million and a half and told them I'd be evaluating their performance quarterly. While I wasn't the biggest investor for any of them, none of them was turning down the chance to manage a million and a half dollars. I told them that I didn't care what they did as long as it was legal and as long as my pile grew. I didn't EVER want to go back to work for someone else again. All of my financial managers performed adequately and my money steadily grew for the next six months so that I was able to live on the growth and not touch the principal even after they took their fees.
In the meantime, I finished writing a novel I'd started a few years before and was pleasantly surprised by its success. I bought a decent sport-luxury sedan and moved to a condo in Florida where I began to write a second novel.
I was in decent shape for my age. Let's be clear: I was maybe 15 pounds overweight for my 6 foot average frame and I wasn't going to be winning any bodybuilding contests, but I was in decent shape. I'd started losing my hair in my mid-30s and gave up on fighting to keep it. I shaved it all and grew a pretty decent VanDyke. I liked playing most sports: basketball, soccer, volleyball. I'd even been a coach and referee for all three at various times in my life. I was pretty active and wasn't ashamed to be shirtless at a beach. Which was a good thing in Florida.
It was September when the convergence of circumstances gave me an idea.
While on a trip to a nearby beach for the Labor Day weekend, I was sitting on my beach chair enjoying a novel by one of my favorite writers and watching girls go by. With no wife to berate me for ogling scantily-clad lovelies, I looked all I wanted. Oh, how I love bikinis! any color, any pattern, any size (but the smaller, the better). There were college girls strutting their stuff up and down the beach and some of them were certifiable hotties. The beach began to get crowded and soon two girls found the small patch of sand next to me and laid out their things.
One was a beach-bronzed brunette in a white slide top bikini that barely contained her lovely full tits and a pair of side-tie bottoms to match. She had black straight hair that was cut to just over her shoulders. She looked at me and flashed a brilliant smile,
"Beautiful day at the beach. What are you reading?"
I turned the book so she could read the cover.
"That's a good one! I love Richterman." she said.
"It's the first of hers that I've read. I like it so far." I said.
The other girl was a dishwater blonde about 3 inches shorter than the brunette. She was wearing a brilliant blue strapless tube top and a color-coordinated thong with string sides. Her top was nearly see-thru it was so thin. Her nipples were on display through the unlined material as she laid back on the other side of the brunette. The bottoms slid up and gave her a slight camel toe.
My dick enjoyed her show. It twitched in appreciation.
Both girls reached into their bags and pulled out bottles of tanning oil. The brunette poured the oil on her belly, set the oil on the towel beside her, and began to rub the slick stuff around her torso. The blonde dumped some oil on her chest and began to rub it in, sliding her hands over her top as she did. The oil caused the already thin fabric of the tube top to cling to her tits like it was painted on. Her nipples and aureolas looked almost bare. My attention was diverted to the brunette who was now running her hands under her top to oil her boobs. I caught her looking at me out of the corner of her eye as her hand (deliberately?) lifted the fabric of her top enough for me to see a nipple.
My cock was at half mast and I decided to read some more of my book before I embarrassed myself.
I read another chapter. The book was good. The scenery was better. I paused to watch the two girls coming back up from the water. They were stunning. The swimsuits did little to hide their charms and their tits bounced happily as they jogged back to their towels. The blonde smiled at me as she adjusted her top. She stood on the end of her towel facing me and with both hands lifted her hair off her neck. Her boobs rose within the confines of her top. It slid and she had to catch it. The brunette laughed at her predicament and looked at me to see if I'd noticed.
"Sophie's such a tease!" the brunette giggled.
"Oh, I don't mind a good show every now and then, teasing or not. Old guys like me have to be thankful for whatever we can get." I laughed.
Sophie laid down on her towel as the brunette dried herself, rubbing herself with a towel from her bag. The brunette dropped her towel in her bag and kneeled down on her towel. Like a cat stretching, she lowered herself to her stomach on her beach towel.
The day slid by and the beach started to empty. It was four o'clock when the girls started gathering their things. I thought it was probably time for me to go too, so I got up and got ready to leave.
"Are you girls local?"
The brunette laughed, "No, we're making the most of our last long weekend before school starts."
"Where do you go?" I asked.
"USF" They chorused.
"Are you staying nearby?" I asked.
"We hope so. We haven't gotten a room yet."
"Uh-oh, it's a busy weekend. I hope you find something." I said.
"You think we might not?" Sophie asked.
"Well, I don't know for sure, but this is a relatively small town and it's a busy weekend like I said. Why don't y'all look for someplace to stay and meet me for dinner just in case?"
"Dinner sounds good." the brunette said, "I'm Kelly, by the way."
"Okay, Kelly and Sophie, I'll meet you for dinner at the restaurant on the pier riiight...there" and I pointed it out, "Say, 6:30?"
"Perfect," they said.
I went back to my suite and straightened up a bit before taking a shower and putting on shorts and a polo.
I arrived at the restaurant a few minutes ahead of time. I got a table and sat facing the door so I could see when Sophie and Kelly came in (if they did). They were about 5 minutes late, but they were in beach cover-ups. I stood and waved them over to my table.
"You were right!" Kelly said as they slid into the seat opposite me, "None of the reasonable motels have any rooms! We're going to have to sleep on the beach or in the car..."
"That's absurd! And dangerous. I can't let you do that! I have a suite down the road here a half a mile. I've got a couch and I imagine we could get a rollaway from the front desk..."
Sophie smiled coyly as she said, "I don't know...we don't even know your name..."
"Oh," I laughed, "I guess you don't...I'm Magnus Storm."
"MAGNUS?" they both asked.
"Yeah, a family name. Most of my friends just call me Storm, but I hate to lead off with that. It sounds kind of pretentious."
"What do you think, Sophie? Can we trust a guy named MAGNUS?" Kelly asked.
Sophie giggled and said, "Do we have a choice? It's that or go home. I don't want to go home, Kel."
"Alright, Mr Storm, we will accept your offer, but we insist on splitting the cost of the suite with you." Kelly said.
We ordered and ate dinner. We talked about the girls' majors and backgrounds. I told them about my divorce and about the book I'd written. Small talk mostly. When the check came, I picked it up and Kelly and Sophie protested sweetly that they'd pay for their own, but I told them it was my treat.
We went outside and I pointed out my car and told them they could follow me to the hotel. They got in their mid-sized Japanese sedan and we were off to my suite.
I could not believe my luck. I had two complete babes on their way to my hotel with an arrangement to stay for the long weekend!
We parked in adjacent spaces at the hotel and I helped them with their bags. When we got to the room, I opened the door and stepped back to allow them into the room first. They were pleased with the rooms. I walked to the middle of the sitting room and laid their bags on the floor.
I walked through the rooms turning on the lights and telling them where things were. Sophie said,
"I call dibs on the shower!" and she grabbed her toiletries bag and closed the bathroom door.
"We really appreciate you sharing your place with us, Storm." Kelly said as she plopped down on the sofa and grabbed the TV remote. She laid back into the sofa as she surfed the channels looking for something to watch. I went into the kitchenette to get somethng to drink. I offered, "Kelly, you want something to drink?"
I was surprised to hear her in the doorway, "What do you have?"
I turned to look at her. She'd removed her cover-up and had a beach towel wrapped around her. No straps were visible above the towel. "I have diet cokes and rum, but I doubt you're old enough to drink rum."
