This forms the concluding part of my first story âEva Discoveredâ. It will make more sense if you read that story first (itâs not too long).
Our experience at the golf club that night forced us to clear the air surrounding our sex life. We didnât talk much that night, when we got home we simply wrapped ourselves in each other until, exhausted, we fell asleep.
But in the days and weeks after, we discussed what had happened more rationally and a picture began to emerge.
Eva wasnât so demure that she didnât realise she was still an attractive woman, but she was conscious of getting older and realised that I might be the only man she would ever sleep with. It wasnât, she stressed, that this was such a terrible thing, but it just seemed to remind her of the narrowing of lifeâs options as you get older. So many things she had wanted to do - thought she would do, and she finds herself looking back on a comfortable middle class life as a housewife and part-time help in my business.
Lately, she said, sex had just started to remind her more of what she had missed in life, rather than what she had got. She had started, almost unconsciously, to avoid it. Until that night at the club.
Eva confessed that a combination of our argument that night, the lack of sex recently, the booze and the attentions of the young bandsman was just enough to push her over the edge and into his arms.
She thought: âWhen am I ever going to be in a position like this again? Dressed up to the nines and alone on a secluded terrace with a handsome young man who wants me.â
She was apologetic and so was I. She gets all defensive and clams up when something goes wrong in our marriage, and I get aggressive and pick a fight. It solves nothing.
But, now we had been forced to confront what was going on in our relationship, the communication (and the sex) had got much better.
While I wasnât exactly thrilled about Evaâs actions out there on the terrace that night, I accepted some of the blame for what had happened - and I had to admit I was enjoying the upswing in our sex life. Eva explained that her experience, while she had no intention of repeating it, had made her appreciate what she had more and left her with just a little whisper of erotic possibility that soothed her concerns about missed opportunities.
Over the next weeks and months we sometimes used that night to fuel our fantasies and both enjoyed the erotic charge such thoughts brought to our lovemaking. Eva made it clear though that they were to remain just that - fantasies.
The thought of any adultery, âall that sneaking aroundâ as Eva put it, turned her off and she found the idea of swinging âa little tackyâ (sorry swingers!).
For my part, I had never been much into the whole âcuckoldâ thing and our quite prominent position in our small townâs social life would make any gossip hugely embarrassing to us.
To be honest I think we were both quite happy with that. We were fairly middle-of-the-road people who had experienced an erotic and forbidden episode and come through the thing unscathed.
So it was that we continued with our comfortable and predictable life with maybe just a little spring in our steps.
Business continued to be good and steady and we continued with our hobby of travelling to a new European city for a long weekend after every business quarter.
We had already visited most of the big capitals like Rome, Madrid, Paris, London, Berlin and Brussels, and even more exotic places like Prague, Budapest and Reykjavik (Youâve got to go experience these hot pools and geysers). It was my job to arrange the whole thing, including the destination, as a surprise for Eva and it was a task I loved. But finding new places we could easily reach in a weekend was becoming more difficult.
I was surfing the web looking for ideas for our next trip when one of our reps, Ben, came into the office. We chatted about past trips (Ben is also a bit of a traveller and can usually be relied upon for good tips) and he surprised me by suggesting Amsterdam. To be honest I had steered clear of the place. I had an image of a rather seedy city, full of hookers, drugs and drunken stag parties: not my cup of Earl Grey I told him.
Ben told me that my impression was probably bang on at the weekends, but Amsterdam was really very beautiful and, if you went off season and during the week, you could appreciate it without so much of the downsides. It seemed like a good idea to me and as our next trip was due at the beginning of October we would probably be âoff seasonâ enough. I booked it up. We flew out on a Sunday morning, taking Benâs advice about the weekend, and intended to stay Sunday and Monday nights and be back in the office by Wednesday morning.
Ben was right, Amsterdam was beautiful and we enjoyed visiting the museums, flower markets and taking trips on the canals. By Monday night we felt we had done the sights and at dinner I suggested to Eva that we venture into the âred lightâ district for a look around. She had already read in her guidebook about how well policed and safe it all was, and was happy to go have a look.
Part of our weekends had always been about sex (thereâs just something about a posh hotel and being anonymous in a new city that I find gets a girl going!) and lately of course things were better than ever in this department.
Eva didnât dress particularly âmousyâ at home, but it would be fair to say that she let her hair down just a little more when we were on our trips.
Tonight she was wearing a fitted shear silk black blouse which was open enough to display a hint of her deep 40D cleavage. This was tightly belted in to an ass hugging black pencil skirt with a discreet slit on her thigh. She wore stockings and black stilettos and underneath some daring Agent Provocateur lingerie I had bought her for the trip. A bit traditional for some perhaps, but Eva knows how to press all my buttons.
With the conversation neatly turned to what we might find in the red light district I suggested I buy her a new vibrator. She has one of those ârabbitsâ at home but would be far too embarrassed to bring it on our trips in case our bags were searched. She seemed genuinely excited by the idea and I started teasing her about buying a huge black lifelike one if she was very good. Eva began to sound all kittenish, which was a good sign that she was becoming aroused;
âHow can I be good then?â she whispered.
I decided to press home my advantage:
âThe waiter will be back with the check soon, give him a little more to look at.â
Our table was against a wall and Eva was sitting with her back to the room, so that the waiter had to lean over her to serve. I had already noticed him steal a quick look down Evaâs top and I new she was always aware of these things too. She gave me a wicked little smile, and with her coffee cup held in front of her in one hand, she discreetly lifted her other hand to her blouse. When she lowered the cup, another button was undone on the shirt and even from my viewpoint a good three inches of deep cleavage was on show. I knew her new bra was barely half cup and completely transparent: the waiter was in for a show.
Sure enough he lingered over her long enough when he brought the bill to get a real good look. When he left Eva said teasingly:
âWell, was I good enough?â
âWeâll see in a minute.â
âWhat do you mean?â
I knew this next request was a bit much, but I was desperate to see how far sheâd go to win her âprizeâ.
âBefore he comes back with my card I want you to pop your tits out of you bra. Keep the shirt as it is.â
This was more of a challenge. The waiter was sure to have another look down her shirt and this time heâd be able to see everything.
