PROLOGUE
We have a small chain of boutique women's stores in the Southwest. It's a tough business but we are very successful, because we work our butts off. So, come hell or high water, twice a year, we take two weeks off β two in late spring (at my lake house) and two in late fall (at Gus' mountain cabin). We vacation at those particular times to take advantage of the off-seasons and milder weather.
We are Jake (Jacob) and Maria, and our business partners and best friends, Gus (Agostinho) and Jen (Jennifer). This story is about our spring vacation last May. This time, for our first time ever, we brought two other people on vacation with us, our new executive assistants, Jeff and Annie. I had misgivings about having employees on our private vacation, but Gus told me, and I quote, "Get the stick out of your ass!" (Eloquent as always!)
We hired Jeff and Annie last year when our new expansion project began to overwhelm us. Jeff is Gus' assistant and Annie is mine. Gus thinks he got a raw deal because Jeff, who is an excellent assistant and a very nice guy, is still a "guy." And Annie, definitely not a guy, is a real "Looker!"
It's not my fault. He hired Jeff before I even considered an assistant. Besides, Annie was entirely Gus' wife's (office manager) doing. Anyway, they were ecstatic to be going with us, and they needed the break as bad as we did. When we are gone, day-to-day business is handled by our two district managers and the individual retail managers.
INTRODUCTIONS
I'm Jake, 45, and my beautiful Maria is 41. We've been married 16 years. Our partners, Gus, 46, and Jen, 38, have been married 12. Neither couple has children β not by choice. From a rare virus, I suffered a severe fever as a teen that fried my gonads, and Gus' wife is unable to carry to term.
Gus and I have been best friends since eighth grade. We met when he kept to two toughs from pounding me into a puddle. He's been my rescuer on more than one occasion. I'm not a rowdy or a hot head; I just won't be bullied or pushed and sometimes that leads to confrontation. Anyway, we've made a great team ever since β I helped him get laid in high school and college, and he helped me not get beat to death.
And we have been able to be very successful in business and remain the best of friends because we have unconditional respect for each other and we are good at different things. So, we don't piss in each other's rice bowl, or more delicately put, we never interfere in each other's part of the business.
I am 6'-2" and weigh 200 pounds with an overall medium build and moderately broad shoulders and chest. I have good muscle definition and a fairly flat stomach. As an avid runner, my best physical attributes are my legs and ass. My wife says I have the best looking ass she's ever seen on a man. I'm not sure how many men's asses she has seen, afraid to ask, but I'll go with what she says.
I have a medium complexion and light brown hair, which is beginning to grey at the temples. I wear it conservatively β just off the ears and collar and long enough on top to comb back. My wife says I am very handsome and thinks my steel-blue eyes are sexy. Who am I to argue? I never had trouble finding female companionship, but never had to beat them off with a stick either.
Maria is a statuesque 5'-10" and 150 pounds with a voluptuous, shapely body. Her measurements are 40-28-38. She is full figured, but her body is firm with only the requisite body fat for her build. Her buttocks are full, firm and round and lovely to watch when she walks. Her size D breasts have only moderate declination and hold their large shape well, much better than most women her age with large breasts. And as beautiful as her breasts and ass are, they are not her best physical feature β that would be her long, sleek, finely muscled legs β the result of being a collegiate swimmer.
Her wavy, dark brown hair is always worn down or in a long, loose braid and hangs to the rise of her derriere. She has a strikingly beautiful face with large, brown eyes, full lips and a long, elegant nose, and reminds me of Sophia Loren. (If not familiar, Google her. Maria is a softer, prettier version of Sophia, in my humble opinion.) With her olive complexion (Mediterranean heritage) and her long, curvaceous lines and beautiful face, Maria is drop-dead gorgeous β no exaggeration, at all, period. Men are inextricably drawn to her sultry good looks and statuesque form. Not surprisingly, women, especially wives, are not always so readily "drawn" to her.
OUR PARTNERS:
Gus is 5'-10" and 230 pounds. He's a hairy bulldozer with a head stuck on top. He is not a particularly good-looking man, but again, we will go with my wife's appraisal, "He has rugged, masculine looks and a natural charisma that give him a certain appeal." Gus does have charisma, loads of it, and it has helped us in business. When he wants, he can charm the pants off people β and the money right out of their wallets. He is powerfully built, big-chested with expansive shoulders, clubs for arms, and though he is thick in the waist and lower torso, he is not fat. He is dark-haired and swarthy and is of Portuguese ancestry. He combs his slightly thinning, wavy black hair straight back.
Neither of us wears facial hair. I had a dapper beard and mustache until a few years ago, but everything started turning gray and really aged me. I am vain enough that it bothered me so it all came off. Gus has to shave β a lot. He can't wear a beard. With an already slightly menacing appearance, a beard makes him look like an axe murderer β and that's not good for business. As it is, his dense, dark stubble gives him a permanent 5 o'clock shadow.
Jen is petite and sexy. At 5'-4" and 110 lbs., she has a slender, athletic physique with a very flat, very firm stomach; firm size-B breasts with just the slightest pout; slender hips; a very firm, medium-sized derriere; and sleek, well-toned legs. Her measurements are 33-23-33.
The delicate features of her pretty face are dominated by her striking, emerald green eyes. She is very fair-skinned with natural auburn hair, worn short, feathered over her ears and half-way down the nape of her neck. And where Maria is sultry, Jen is saucy. In sum, she is a pretty, petite, red-headed nymph who doesn't look a day over 30.
Jen's effect on men β "Man, I'd like to 'nail' that little package!" Oh, and wives never respond well to Jen!
OUR ASSISTANTS:
Annie (Angelina) is 23, fresh out of college with no experience and somewhat of a gamble on my part. But, Jen, who interviewed and hired her, said she was sharp and strongly recommended her. I also think she did it to screw with my libido, because as I said, Annie is a looker!
She is 5'-8", about 130 pounds, has a well-toned, slender body with a medium brown complexion. Her chest is accented by a set of C-size breasts that have almost no declination. Her long torso and long, muscular legs are complemented by a full, but very firm ass. Her statistics are 37-24-36, perfect, huh! She has wavy, almost curly black hair and dark brown eyes. Full, sensuous lips accent her lovely, slender face. She is a beautiful combination of African, Hispanic and Anglo heritage. Also, she has turned out to be very bright and handles herself surprisingly well in difficult situations. Poised and efficient, with time and experience she is going to be something special. Already, she has made herself indispensable to me. Did I say "Looker?" β She is a 23-year old "walking wet dream!" In spite of that, I maintained a very professional relationship with her.
Jeff, 28, has that clean cut, all-American look, tall and lean at 6'-3" and 185 pounds. Brown haired and brown-eyed and moderately light-complexioned, he is, according to the women in our company, a "looker," too. Besides being very sharp and having a great work ethic, he is a very likeable young man...but, I'm still glad I got Annie!
THE STORY
I. GREAT VIEWS AT THE LAKE
We drove up to the lake house in two vehicles, my Denali with Maria, Annie and me, and in his Range Rover, Gus, Jen and Jeff. Both vehicles were packed to the rafters with luggage and supplies for two weeks.
On the 4-hour drive up, Maria had a severe headache so she took pain pills and laid in the back seat, putting Annie up front with me. We kept each other company chatting and getting better acquainted. Since this was the first time for us to interact outside of work and that professional environment, we started out a little awkwardly, but as the miles rolled by, we both relaxed and got to know each other more personally. I discovered Annie has a great sense of humor and likes to joke and tease, and as we both relaxed, we had a great time. Also, I discovered she is not only gorgeous, but can be very sexy; a side of her I really didn't need to become familiar with.
I don't think she dressed to 'prick-tease' me, but my prick was teased none-the-less. She was wearing a thin, sleeveless, lavender blouse and short, denim cut-offs. She was obviously wearing a bra, but a fairly shear one, because it and the blouse barely disguised the shape of her amazingly firm breasts and her dark, pronounced nipples. Her cut-offs also displayed her long, athletic legs for my full appreciation.
I don't know if she was intentionally flirting or not, but as we were chatting, she started touching me, patting my arm or leg in conjunction with points in our conversation, like when we shared a humorous moment. The more relaxed we became, the more she touched. And she would give me a sharp look and coquettish smile anytime she or I said anything with a sexual overtone. I was thankful the sun had set and that my dick was pointing south down the leg of my shorts so my hard-on wasn't so obvious.
None too soon we arrived at the lake house. I quickly hopped out of the vehicle and headed around back to start unloading and hide my erection with luggage. Unfortunately, I had to wait for the electric hatch to raise, and by that time Annie had joined me at the rear of the SUV. Momentarily, we were facing each other in the twilight and I thought I saw her eyes briefly glance at my crotch.
