FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE - PAYING IT FORWARD
Author's notes: This is the second of three stories in the series, "From Russia with Love." If you haven't read the first, please do. The primary characters and story theme are developed there.
As in "From Russia with Love," this is a spouse swap story. If that is not your thing, this will not be your 'cup of tea'. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy.
BRIEF REINTRODUCTION
I am James, 45 years old, 6'-1" and 190 pounds. I have a medium complexion - usually with a moderate tan, am in good shape, and reasonably handsome. My dark-blond/light-brown hair is worn in a long, business cut, and I'm clean shaven. My wife, and others, say I'm good-looking. Women notice me, but don't go 'gaga'.
My wife, Janine, 41, is 5'-2" and 110 pounds, and men do go 'gaga' over her. She is overall slender but buxomy, with a killer butt. Her full C-cup breasts, which are still in amazing shape for her age, stand out on her petite frame. She has long, wavy, auburn hair, and a very light, almost porcelain complexion, a beautiful face with delicate features, a small mouth with full lips, and striking, emerald green eyes. With her dark, cinnamon-hued hair, pale complexion, and killer body, she is a knock out.
Recently, we were able to make changes in our life that gave us more opportunities for travel; and with our son now in college and away from home, one of those changes was to seek more adventurous, more adult-oriented, non-family venues. In that vein, this was our inaugural vacation, and so far, it has been quite an adventure. Jan and I are both very sexually oriented - always have been, and that hasn't lessened with age. If anything, we have been seeking to increase the passion in our relationship, and become more 'adventurous' in that department.
And as we continue our 'unique' vacation at this remote, Russian lodge, located on the slopes of the southern Ural Mountains, we find ourselves at a place in our relationship we never imagined we would arrive at - one that challenged us, tested our love and commitment; and one that saw us include someone else in our sex life for the first time. We had often fantasized about doing that, but honestly never thought we would. Now we had. And, in a way, it was life-changing, in a good way - as it turned out. We now knew what was possible, what we could handle, and were ready to see where that could lead.
PROLOGUE
(Prologue is taken from the epilogue of "From Russia With Love - Part Two.")
We didn't have to wait long to find out.
We said goodbye to Viktor and Hanna; and as they left, the shuttle that would be taking them back to Yekaterinburg, brought two new couples. It was snowing steadily, and we were concerned about our friends making it back safely. The concierge assured us it was very manageable. As we stood and watched our friends leave, the new arrivals checked in, took off their coats, shook them off, and stomped the snow off their boots. One couple was about our age, and I heard them address the desk clerk in Russian; the other couple was young, European, English or American. When their turn came to check in, we verified they were American by their speech. The Russian couple greeted us as they headed for the stairs. We briefly chatted, and discovered that the snow let up as soon as you were at a lower elevation. After they left, we decided to wait and welcome the young, American couple.
Obviously no older than early twenties, the man was about 5'-8" and stocky, broad-chested with big guns for arms. He had a pleasant, kind of boyish face, clean-shaven, and reasonably handsome. He had blue eyes and an open expression. His blond hair was short, combed over and worn clean around the ears and off the neck.
His wife was an attractive, petite young woman with long, straight, light-blond hair, worn at a length that fell below her bosom. She had a pretty face with delicate features, nicely-shaped, moderately full lips, the kind you see in lipstick ads, and lovely, light-blue eyes. At about 5'-4", she was taller than Jan, and like her, she had a slender body; but there, the similarities ended. She was less curvy, with a more athletic looking figure, but not girlish - and definitely not boyish. Under the ivory, cashmere, turtleneck sweater she was wearing, which was long and covered her derriere, you could make out what appeared to be average, B-cup breasts that rode high on her chest. Her snug-fitting, darker ivory leggings revealed muscular, but slender legs. Her figure brought to mind the image of a gymnast. However, with the fur-lined, 'Ugg-type' boots she was wearing, she looked more like a ski bunny at Vale.
The desk clerk gave them their keys, explained about dining arrangements, and signaled the porters to get their luggage. After receiving their keys, they turned in our direction, heading for the staircase.
As they approached, my wife whispered, "On the cheeks."
I nodded, and we intercepted the couple to welcome them to the lodge. I stepped in front of the young woman as my wife did the husband.
Jan spoke first, "You're American, aren't you?"
The young man's eyes lit up as he realized we were, too, "Yes. Hi, I'm Thomas and this is my wife, Sandra Kay."
I said, "We are so happy to see another American couple. Our friends just left and we thought we would be the only English speakers here for the rest of our stay. My name is James and this is my wife, Janine."
"Pleased to meet you," Sandra replied.
Jan asked, "What brings you here? This isn't a common destination for Americans."
With a big smile, Thomas answered, "We're on our honeymoon. This was a wedding gift from my father."
My wife said, "Oh, wonderful, congratulations! And welcome to the lodge!"
With that, she moved in and took hold of the young man's big upper arms, reached up and kissed him on each cheek. He automatically tipped his head down.
I took my cue from Jan, placing my hands on the young woman's shoulders and pulling her to me. As I leaned down, I said, "Congratulations!" and kissed her on each cheek.
Pulling back, I asked if they were going to lunch. They said they were too tired, and were going to get situated and rest up before dinner. I asked if they would like to join us then.
Jan added, "Yes, we'd love it if you joined us."
Thomas glanced at his wife, "Honey?"
Sandra nodded her head, and answered, "Well, sure, dear."
Thomas, smiling, replied, "Great, we'll see you then...Oh, what time should we be down here?"
Jan gave him a big smile, "Six will be fine. We'll wait for you at the entrance to the dining hall."
Sandra quickly put in, "I go by Sandy, and my husband goes by Tom."
With that, they headed upstairs.
Jan must have made a big impression on the young man and I commented, "Tom seemed very pleased to make our, uh correction, your acquaintance."
Jan giggled, "Mm hmm; Tom got a big grin and even got a little flushed; his ears turned red."
I asked, "You had that much of an effect on him?"
She laughed, "Well, I did mash my boobs into his big chest!"
"Naughty girl," I remarked and added, "Sandy gave me a brief, shy smile, and when we separated, she was blushing; and I know what you're thinking, and I was too; but they're newlyweds, so..."
