*A warning note to my regulars.*
This is by way of meeting a challenge posed by a reader who suggested that much as he liked my work, he would never find me writing a piece with a man in it being sexual with a woman. After all, he reasoned, I am a lesbian so have no experience. Well that was a challenge to me as a writer. I am not a Turk or an Elizabethan, and I have written about such people, so why not...? Which is where this came from. I am sure you will let me know how I have done.]
I felt the warmth between my thighs tingle. I had seen how he had looked at me. There were two looks: one he meant to be seen, which was the deferential butler; and one he did not mean to be seen, which was the lewd male looking at what he would no doubt have called a "bit of ass." It was, I supposed only natural. There were two sorts of orders: the social order where I was Lady Penelope Chatterley, eldest daughter of Lord Chatterley and he was the butler, Mellors; and the natural order, where I was female, and he was the male. Never had the twain met; until now.
It was my own stupid fault. How could I have been so stupid as to have forgotten to have locked the door to the study? It may have been that with papa away and the maids already in bed, I had imagined I was alone. It had long been my habit to retire thence after supper and to read. It was in the course of perusing the bookshelves that I had accidentally pushed a button which had revealed a hidden set of shelves. Intrigued by the title "Justine, or the Misfortunes of Virtue," I had begun reading.
How I had sympathised with the virtuous Justine who had rejected the advice of her elder sister, who had told her she was "a foolish girl and said that given their ages and pretty faces, it was unheard of for girls to starve to death." She would not stoop to whoring her body as her sister did. And yet, across the rest of the novel, it had been poor Justine who had been forced by men to submit to their lascivious desires, and for no reward. When I read how the evil de Brassac had told his catamite to tie poor Justine to a tree
"this way on... as he pushed me face-forward against the tree. They used their braces, handkerchiefs, anything that came to hand, and in a trice, I was bound so cruelly tight that I found it impossible to move hand or foot. When this operation was completed, the blackguards removed my skirts, raised my petticoats above my head and took out their hunting-knives"
I had been overcome by a fit of the vapours. My hand strayed to my underwear, which bore evidence of arousal, and before I knew it, I had pleasured myself to a climax.
Of course, I swore that would be an end to it. But of course, it was not. It transpired that Papa's collection included other works of the same nature.
To one, "the history of O" I came back to again and again. The opening entranced me. A young woman, O, was ordered into a waiting car by her lover, RenΓ©, commanded to remove her underwear, and driven to a chateau in the Paris suburb of Roissy where she was initiated into a secret society with complicated rules: she was not to look any man in the eye nor speak to any of the other women. She had to wear a corseted dress that exposed her breasts, as well as a leather collar and cuffs. Any man might dispose of her as he wished. I felt I was O sometimes, and would imagine her actions.
I would sometimes act out the part in the privacy of the study. That particular night I had been leaning back on my writing desk by the window, in only my high heels and white knickers, with the latter pulled to my knees as I cupped my bare sex. Such had been the intensity of the feeling that it had taken me a few seconds to realise that Mellors had entered the room.
"Sorry, Ma'am, I shall leave you, Apologies."
He'd said "sorry," but his eyes had feasted on my bare breasts with their hard, upturned nipples, and my waxed sex. That look haunted me.
At breakfast all had seemed normal, and that evening, as usual, he had asked if I would care for a glass of wine. I had thanked him, as usual. Indeed, all had been as usual until he asked if he could sit by my feet. Not wishing to offend him, I said he was most welcome. Perhaps, I hoped, this might clear the air?
"Would you mind, my lady, if I were to admire those rather beautiful shoes. Manolo Blahniks, I assume Ma'am, an excellent choice if I might be permitted an opinion."
I felt myself blush.
"How kind of you, Mellors."
"Yes, Ma'am, the black patent leather is especially beautiful, and they do show off your perfect legs to great advantage."
Was he taking liberties, or just being kind? I decided to presume the former.
"Thank you Mellors."
"Another drink, my lady? You seem thirsty tonight."
"Please, Mellors."
I watched as he went to get another glass of wine.
"Perhaps, my lady, you would like to take it in the study?"
It seemed rude to refuse, so I accepted the suggestion.
"If your ladyship would care to recline on the chaise longue?"
Aware that to do so in my current dress with the slit skirt, might reveal more than I should in the presence of a servant, for some reason I still did it,
"Nice stockings my lady, and was that a glimpse of white?"
That tone and the way he was looking at me made me think of the story of O.
"It was," I admitted, blushing.
"Don't you think that I should make sure of that? Adjust that dress so I can see."
That, of course, was the point at which I should have put my foot down. Instead I opened my legs to afford him a view of my mound and my white knickers moulded to it.
"Is that how a lady sits?"
He asked me, smiling.
"No, but you asked me..."
"I did, and from your reading matter last night, I think you like the idea of being told what to do."
I blushed beetroot red.
"Erm, well..."
"Oh, you do, we both know you do. Now, get that pretty arse off the chaise and stand. And by the way, Missy, from here you call me Sir, get it?"
"Yes Sir," I said, standing.
"Now take that dress off."
"Yes Sir," I said, doing so and standing there in my underwear and stockings.
I felt him behind me, his breath on my neck. Then I felt him lower my knickers, ashamed that the butler was seeing my bare aristocratic arse, but excited that my female parts were bared to the male.
