I gingerly made my way down the sidewalk in the direction of my home, a well-fucked ache between my legs as I attempted to beat my husband home from his golf outing. I couldn't help the smile on my face as I approached our house, the memory of how Alexandra had delightfully stretched my pussy ever-present in my mind.
"And what are you smiling about?"
I looked over across the street, and, for the first time, took notice of our neighbor Jasmine, who stood watering her flower beds. As was the norm for the women in our neighborhood, she was dressed immaculately, her hair and makeup just so for a chore that simply didn't require it. I sighed, trying to suppress the look of exasperation that threatened to blossom on my face. I reluctantly made my way over to the sidewalk in front of Jasmine's house. Her curiosity needed to be fed something empty yet filling, lest it fixates on me and my life. It occurred to me that I might start having to do that a lot more often.
"How are you today?" I asked, sidestepping her question with a smile as I watched her overwater her azaleas. I tried to affect as normal a look as possible, but the pleasant ache in my pussy was doing its damnedest to remind me that my new life was anything but normal.
"I'm fine, and don't think for a second that you can avoid my question," Jasmine said with a knowing smirk.
"What do you mean?" I replied, opting to play dumb. There I was, walking home from our newest neighbor's house - our openly lesbian neighbor, at that - with a freshly fucked look on my face. I felt a blush rise up on my cheeks at the thought of Alexandra's final instructions to me before she kissed me goodbye at her front door.
"
You're not to wash your face until you've welcomed your husband home from his golf match."
The thought of Alexandra's juices coating my face at once got me wondering if Jasmine was standing downwind of me; if she was, could she smell the fragrant aroma of my new lover's pussy wafting towards her on the summer's breeze? The thought of it instantly filled me with concern while thrilling me at the same time. After all, in a wealthy neighborhood of affluent Stepford wives, each one doing their best to outdo the other in a Better Homes and Gardens/Modern Woman manner, I'd just broken the mold. I'd stepped out of line. I'd been a bad, bad girl.
"I mean, you hardly have any makeup on your face and you're prancing around in a pair of jeans and a T-shirt while sneaking back from Alexandra's house before your husband gets home. So, come on, girl: spill!"
"I'm hardly sneaking," I replied, feeling alarmed that she'd read me so well. "I'm walking down the sidewalk in broad daylight. And I was at Alexandra's because she's hired me as her new personal assistant, and she called me this morning to help her locate some paperwork she needs for the new book she's writing."
"Well, I've never before seen you leave the house looking so unkept," Jasmine retorted, clearly still suspicious of my reply. "And are you sure that you want to be working for that woman? After all, she's hardly like the rest of us."
"I happen to like and admire Alex a lot!" I announced, suddenly feeling defensive of my new employer and lover. "She's intelligent, funny, successful..."
"She's gay, is what she is," Jasmine said, interrupting my praise.
"Oh, come on, Jasmine," I said. . "I expected that kind of unenlightened and narrowminded comment from Steve, but not you." Despite my generally low opinion of Jasmine and all the other women in the neighborhood like her, I was both shocked and hurt. I'd never thought our neighborhood was that much of an ugly throwback.
"Don't get me wrong," she replied with a shrug, "I've got no problem with her sleeping with whomever she wants, but it's hardly a good look for
you
to be spending so much time with her."
I felt the old anger threaten to erupt again, just like it had the other night with Steve. I literally had to chew at my tongue momentarily to prevent myself from similarly lighting into the bitch standing across from me. I managed it, but just barely.
"Well, I guess that I'll just have to give all of you neighborhood gossips something to talk about, because I have absolutely no intention of quitting my new job just because a bunch of kept women see it as being beneath me. And my only regret is that you ladies will allow your homophobia to prevent you from really getting to know Alexandra the way that I have."
With that, I turned and walked away from Jasmine, leaving her standing there with a shocked look on her face just as Steve pulled into our driveway.
So much for feeding her something innocuous
, I thought to myself.
Whatever. She deserves to eat her own potpourri-scented shit. She deserves to have Alexandra slap some fucking sense into her - not fuck her, though. That's only for me.
Still feeling confident and impertinent from my conversation with our neighbor, I met my husband as he stepped out of his vehicle. I reached up, grabbed Steve's cheeks, and pulled his startled face down to meet mine, kissing his lips before turning and stomping off into the house without comment. As I did, I couldn't help but smile, wondering if my husband could smell or taste Alexandra on my lips. The thought of him doing so filled me with a sense of naughtiness I couldn't wait to share with my mistress.
<<<<<>>>>>
If my clueless spouse noticed Alexandra's taste or aroma, he didn't mention it. I assumed his golf game had gone well, because he was in a good mood, even deigning to speak to me a couple of times without sounding like a petulant child.
I spent the rest of the day out back by the pool, enjoying the sun while topless and wondering if Alexandra was watching. I got my answer about an hour in when she sent me a photo of one of her leather-covered wooden paddles. I didn't need words to understand that she intended to punish me for teasing her again, a fact that had me getting wet and squirming on my chaise lounge.
Things seemed more normal between Steve and me that evening. We ordered takeout and actually enjoyed some polite conversation about our plans for the coming week. I did avoid the topic of Alexandra and my new job because I didn't see the sense in stirring up old hurts. Steve disappeared after supper to watch the baseball game on ESPN while I cleaned up our mess before making my way upstairs. I wanted to lay my outfit out for the next day and then spend so much time soaking in the tub that my skin got wrinkly. I was just settling down into the hot water when my phone rang. The caller ID showed Alexandra's name and a picture I'd snapped of her before leaving her house this morning.
"Hey," I said, answering her call, "can you just instinctively tell when I'm naked, or do you have a camera in my bathroom?"
