*****
Sunday morning. What a night I have had yesterday at the Convention! Zero business done, hardly any networking, but my plan to get as many cocks as I could worked miracles. I certainly got shagged, and in a way that I had not been for ages. It was thrilling, it was risky, it was gooey! The whole thing could have gone so wrong. Not because of the guys I played with; I knew who they were and those I did not know, had been recommended by my organiser in chief, Rob. Actually, it could have gone wrong because of my son Josh. Little did I know that he had spied on me and found details of what Rob and I had arranged for me. I could not believe how much my young devil had been smart and fathomed how to attend all my exploits. In the end, he could have told everything to my husband Michael but somehow, he saw the light and kept his secret to him.
He knew that I would have to throw something in if I did not want to be in trouble. And that something... was me! Maybe the good thing about it lay in the fact that I could not procrastinate at the time. I had had to make a decision very quickly. No time then to think for too long if the sacred bond between a mother and son would be broken. In all honesty, I now believe that I gave him the time of his life.
But there we are. I have just got up and made myself a nice warm cup of coffee. All my energy seems to have gone and while I am sipping my drink, I am pondering about what is to come next. How to face my son? Will he blackmail me? Will he want more? What about Rob and some of my colleagues? Will they keep their promises and shut up? Any chance that my husband might find out? More importantly, what about me? What did I want? More?
Even a long hot shower did not manage to clear my thoughts up. As a result, I decided to go for the safe option and behave, for the time being, as the perfect conservative wife, dedicated to her job and family. Lunch conversation and some inquisitive looks gave me later a disturbing feeling when Josh joined Michael and I. However, to my relief, he kept appearances as I expected him to, without any fuss.
Only when Michael went to his golf club, did Josh come to me.
"Mum, I just wanted to say that last night..." he said with a slightly stuttering voice.
"Please Josh, none of this! Remember what I told you? What happened there, stays there. I was the guilty party but it was fun and I needed it. You saw and you joined the fun, which in a way makes you an accomplice. I appreciate that it's weird as you are my son but that is what we've done. Period."
"OK" he replied. "I wanted to make sure that you were not too upset. I think that I had never lusted after someone so much. You were amazing and if I was Dad, every day when I come home, I would..."
"Josh, shut up please! No, you are not my husband!"
"Well, since you have fantasies and needs, if I could help you in the future... and whenever Dad is not here, if you fancied using my cock..."
"Right, young man, I think we need to terminate this conversation now. This is the family house here. Back to normal for everyone. I promise that I will keep your suggestion in mind but I will not tolerate any harassment from you. And do not boast about what happened to your friends either! Is this clear?"
"I will do my best Mum, but you are so attractive! It is going to be really hard not to think about you, your body or your skills. I will be silent, but please don't ignore me."
"Alright Josh, you are my little secret." I replied with a big smile trying to defuse the situation.
A new week started and everybody was back at work. Michael and Josh commuted to London and I got to my office. Needless to say, Rob and a couple of guys had monumental grins on their faces when they saw me. I could sense a bit of banter going on with exclamations like "Did you have fun at the convention Linda?" or "I thought that Sunday was far dryer that Saturday night". I took it well as their jokes could not have revealed anything suspicious. Despite the rampant sex that we had had, none of them tried to grope me or do anything silly. My trouser suit was certainly not as inviting as the outfits that I had worn at the party.
Then came Wednesday. Things had got back to normal and I had worked long hours at the office. While I was shutting down my computer, I texted Josh and asked him if he fancied anything in particular for dinner. Michael had a social evening at the Chamber of Commerce and would not be back home until late. I reckoned that Josh was as knackered as I was, and we both opted for a lazy pizza meal that I would get from our local Waitrose supermarket.
I took advantage of this shopping trip to buy a few additional items and retreated as soon as possible to where my car was parked. I put everything in the boot, opened the driver's door and was about to sit, when I realised that an envelope was stuck under one of my windscreen wipers. I initially thought that it was some kind of supermarket leaflets telling me about a forthcoming promotion but curiosity took the best of me and I decided to open the envelope.
I was in shock and my heart sank as quickly as the Titanic. There were two pictures of me from last Saturday's evening. One was showing me being double penetrated during the last round of fun and one showed me riding one of the guys in the wheelchair. A card was attached to the pictures and said in capital letters:
"I KNOW WHAT YOU DID. MAYBE OTHER PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW TOO. LEAVE YOUR MOBILE AND EMAIL DETAILS IN THIS SUPERMARKET FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS. BEHIND RACK OF CAMPBELL SOUPS / ROW F. DO IT NOW OR PICTURES WILL BE SENT OUT"
Who the hell could have had the cheek to do this? Surely this was not a joke and only someone who attended the convention could have done this. I tried to process quickly who the culprit was: one of the guys, Rob, Josh? I could not see why they would do this. Josh had tried to blackmail me a little bit when he had discovered my sexual shenanigans, but what would he gain by doing this? Did he want to pressurize me into having more sex with him. I re-read the message again and its instructions were clear. I had to provide my details right here right now. I was cornered. There was no way that I could take a chance and have these pictures sent to Michael or even worse released on line.
Should I go to the police? I figured that if Josh happened to be behind all this, there again police involvement would mean that everyone around me would be aware of what had taken place at the Convention. No time to faff around any longer. I checked around the car if anyone suspicious was standing by. Well...buyers with their trolleys but no one that I would know. I grabbed a piece of paper and pen, then wrote my details as requested. I made my way to the aisle where the soups were clearly stacked. I moved one of the cans and placed behind it the card that I had just prepared. I looked around but this aisle was deserted. I went around the other aisles, hoping to find a familiar face, but in vain. I figured that my blackmailer would only make a move once my car would have departed.
It was a short drive back to my home but it was a nervous one. I thought that I should have gone back to the supermarket and told security what had happened. With their CCTVs, they would have seen if anyone had picked my card. But again, same issue as with the police, they would have asked me details of the story...that I did not want to tell.
I finally got home. Thank God, Josh was there. I called him immediately.
"Josh, come down, quick...please!", realising that my tone was threatening.
"Yes Mum" he replied while coming down, "I'll put the pizzas in."
"Josh, any chance you might have been near Waitrose today?"
"Hell no, it's a long way from the station."
"Are you sure?"
"Well, I am not senile yet... and why would I go there?"
"Look at me... and be very careful about the way you are going to answer this."
"What? You're worrying me now. What's up?"
"You wouldn't be trying to blackmail me for sex?"
"The idea crossed my mind but I want to give you time..." he said laughing.
I opened my bag and threw on the table the two pictures and the note attached to them.
"Is it yours, Josh?"
