As he entered the welcoming shade of the indoor garden, the mingled scents and colours of exotic flowers and fruit trees assailed his senses. Flowering Jasmine sweetened the air, scintillating his nostrils, enticing his brain with the heavy scent, mixing with the erotic sweetness of Ylang-Ylang blossoms and fragrant roses. He luxuriated in the scent, letting it fill him with its aphrodisiacal qualities.
The cool, moist air was a welcome change to the heated desert air outside. The desalinization plant he had installed provided more than enough water for his palace, allowing him to indulge in such fancies as exotic courtyards, indoor streams, fountains and ponds. He delighted in water, a commodity his ancestors had not been able to indulge, yet modern technology made it possible for anyone with enough money to create his own oasis beside the sea. Fortunately he had more than enough money and he appreciated this haven he had created for himself and his family.
The children had been sent to a nearby island for a camping weekend, giving the Sheik a whole weekend with which to enjoy the fact that he had four wives and a very special relationship with each and every one of them.
Saturated with the intoxicating fumes, he started off again, he crossed a bubbling stream that emanated from the wall to his side and walked to his front door.
The door magically retreated from his outstretched hand, revealing his youngest wife Jasmina, clad in a diaphanous white silk gown. The sun was behind her, transforming her into an erotic silhouette surrounded by an ethereal aura of her diaphanous garment. She gave him a formal bow, welcoming him home.
He stepped inside, planting a kiss on Jasmina's mouth as she closed the door behind him. She flowed into his arms, her own encircling his sides, causing shivers up his spine as her hands trailed up his sides up to his armpits, then lightly scratch back down.
'You told us to start without you if you were late.' She pouted, breathing hot against his neck.
