When Dale woke up, Tanya was gone but the lingering aroma of her perfume and the throbbing in his groin told him that the night before definitely hadn't been a dream.
"I can't believe this. Between the two of them I've been fucked more in two days then I normally am in a month,
" he said to himself as images of Tanya and Natalie flashed before his eyes.
Reluctantly, he slid from his bed. His muscles were stiff and sore. He walked gingerly to the bathroom and turned on the shower, letting it warm up before stepping in. "FUCK," he hissed as spasms of pain surged through his body when the water cascaded over him. He turned so he could look in the mirror and looked at the scratch marks that covered his back from shoulder to waist. "Forgot about those," he muttered as the corners of the mouth turned upward in a devilish grin.
He took his time finishing his shower before he dressed and went downstairs to the kitchen. He saw Tanya and Natalie sitting on the back porch, talking as they nibbled on the leftover fruit and cheese from the night before. Fortunately, they had left the door partially open so he could hear them.
"So you're not upset?" Tanya asked.
Tanya, at 45 years old, was the older of the two. She stood 5-foot, 9-inches tall and had a toned 34D-26-38 body. Her lightly tanned skin didn't have a wrinkle that he was aware of, and he'd explored it in great detail over the last several weeks. Her hair was sliver over brunette and, at the moment, was pulled back in a ponytail exposing the delicate contours of her neck and shoulders.
He had met her when he was checking on rumors of a new development in the lingerie industry. She had originally worked for his father's company in the Special Development Department but had left shortly after his death. Since then she'd developed a microchip that could be inserted into a women's lingerie which would result in her reaching unparalleled sexual pleasure. She had also purchased a lingerie/porn shop where she was selling the chips. Now, the shop was gone, burned to the ground, it was suspected, by an overseas competitor when she wouldn't sell them her research.
As he stood there listening, he remembered that he needed to call his friend at the Police Department and discuss his idea of how to catch those behind it all.
"Yes ... and no," he heard the second woman say, pulling him back to the present. "Seeing the two of you together last night and knowing what was going to happen had me a little jealous in the beginning. But to tell you the truth, I'm not sure if I was jealous because of what he was about to do to you or what you were about to do to him."
Tanya laughed as she reached over and took the other woman's hand. "Natalie, my dear, you are a naughty, naughty girl."
Natalie joined in the laughter as she held Tanya's hand. The feeling of intimacy that radiated from the two were triggering suspicions that they knew each other far better than he was aware.
Natalie, his step-mother, was only 6 years older than him. She'd been a model working for his father's clothing factory when she and his father had met. It wasn't surprising that he'd been instantly attracted to her. She was tall in comparison to many models at 5-foot, 7-inches but it only seemed to increase the beauty of her sculpted 36D-25-36 figure. Add to that a set of brilliant blues eyes, brunette hair, and a maturity far beyond her years, and it was no wonder his father had fallen for her. After a whirlwind romance, they married which hadn't bothered Dale since they'd quickly bonded into a family. For the next three years they'd done everything together. Then his father was killed by a tiger shark while he'd been scuba diving
Natalie worked long and hard after that to turn the company into a one of the most well-known manufacturers of women's clothing and lingerie in the industry. Then, just a few months ago, she announced she was making Dale the head of the research and development department. That led him to Tanya and her microchips and, in the end, to Natalie becoming his lover.
Now the two women were sitting on the porch talking like old friends.
"You should know," Natalie giggled, as she squeezed Tanya's hand.
"I wonder what would happen if Dale ever found out?" Tanya asked, an impish grin on her face.
"If I found out what?" he asked, innocently as he exited the kitchen onto the porch.
Natalie spun around, worried about what he may have heard. Tanya, on the other hand, replied nonchalantly, "We were just talking about what you suggested last night. You know, about me moving into the guest house. We were wondering what you'd say when you found out I decided to do it."
"I'd say it's a good idea," he replied, down-playing his growing suspicions as he joined them. "So what do the two of you have planned for today?" he asked as he popped a piece of cheese in his mouth.
"I hadn't really thought about it," Natalie answered. "I guess that depends on what Tanya needs. Since she lost everything in the fire, I guess I'll be spending most of my time helping her."
Tanya's hazel eyes seemed to sparkle as she looked at Natalie. "Fortunately, I didn't lose everything," she interjected. "I may have lost everything at the shop but I have a storage unit a couple of miles from here with some clothes and furniture in it. I'd like to go and see what I might be able to use while I'm staying here."
"Great," he replied. "But I want at least one of the security guys to go with you. After what happened I don't think it's a good idea for any of us to be out by ourselves for a while."
Both women looked at each other and then back at him, nodding in agreement.
"What about you? What're your plans?" Natalie asked.
"As soon as I'm done here," he began as he chewed on a piece of melon, "I need to give Gavin a call at the Police Department. I want to talk to him about an idea I have to catch the SOB's that torched Tanya's shop. Then I was thinking I'd run into the office. I wanna talk to Justin about increasing security at the factory and about the new security team he's hiring to patrol around here."
Neither woman said anything, realizing there was no way of keeping Dale from doing what he wanted, especially since they both agreed that security needed to be their greatest concern at the moment.
