Hi,
I intend to follow this up with additional chapters.
I did not use an editor, any mistakes are entirely mine.
Thanks!

Rick walked into the hotel lounge to collect his free pint of beer, compliments of the management. As usual, the manager's reception had pulled in a healthy crowd for the one free drink provided to hotel residents each night. Rick knew that after the first round, 90% of the crowd would disappear to find dinner elsewhere. He had travelled in that morning, attended meetings all afternoon and just finished running 5k on a treadmill followed by a quick shower, so he was planning to eat a light meal at the bar and call it an early night.
There was a free stool at the bar between a group of two women and another single guy sitting by himself. Rick grabbed it and asked for the beer while checking out a menu. He decided on the scallops and pasta, and ordered that when his beer arrived.
Rick sipped the beer and checked messages on his phone while he waited for the food. His wife, Kim, was busy with some of her girlfriends that night, so there was not much to catch up on. He stared at the sports news on the TV screen above the bar and began eavesdropping on the conversation between the two women next to him.
He could just make out what the woman farthest from him was saying. "Steve and I have looked at a dozen different cars already and we can't decide on which one to buy."
She was attractive, probably mid-thirties with dark hair down to her shoulders. She was talking to a thin blond about the same age who was sitting next to Rick.
"Which one do you like best so far?" the blond asked.
The brunette replied,"I want Steve to get a sedan, but he is thinking about a convertible."
"God, another guy going through sports car menopause!" the blond quipped, and they both started laughing.
Rick glanced at them and smiled at the joke. The brunette noticed and said, "Hey, no offense down there."
Rick replied, still smiling, "No problem, I was listening in on your conversation, so I should be the one to apologize. Besides, I went through that phase myself last year."
The women laughed again at his reply, and the brunette said,"My name is Cathy, and this is Nicole."
Rick shook hands with both of them and used the introduction to get a better look at Nicole, who had been facing away from him during her conversation with Cathy, but was now turned towards him.
She was a very pretty blond with a short, blunt hairstyle and sophisticated eyeglasses that gave her an intellectual appearance, like a librarian, he thought. Cathy was more athletic looking, with some freckles that gave her a youthful appearance.
"So what did you end up buying?" asked Nicole.
"I decided on a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited," Rick explained."I have the cloth top on it for summer, and the hard top for winter. And it has seating for 5, like a sedan."
"How do you like it?" asked Cathy.
"I think it's great. I drive it every day, and I don't mind that it rides like a truck, because when I need the four wheel drive, a Jeep can't be beat. My wife is even coming around to my way of thinking."
Rick's food arrived and Cathy and Nicole debated the merits of the Jeep versus other cars while Rick ate. The women decided to order another round, and Rick needed one too, so he told the bartender to put all of them on his tab.
"Hey, thanks!" Nicole said when the drinks arrived. The women included Rick in their conversation as they worked on the second round of cocktails. Rick noticed that the topics and comments were getting racier as the alcohol was consumed.
From TV shows, they moved on to movies, and Nicole admitted that she just went to see the 50 Shades of Gray film.
"How did you like it?" Rick enquired.
Nicole suddenly seemed at a loss for words, and appeared embarrassed. She glanced to Cathy, who was smirking at her, clearly enjoying her discomfort and unwilling to bail her out by jumping in. Cathy sipped her drink and her eyes twinkled.
"It was okay, I guess. I mean, those kinds of relationships are so unrealistic, though."
"You don't think that real people are involved in those kinds of behavior?" Rick asked.
"Well," Nicole stammered, "I don't know any."
"It just so happens that my wife is a dom." explained Rick with a serious look on his face.
"A what?" asked Cathy.
"A dominatrix. The female equivalent of the Christian Gray character in the movie." he replied.
Nicole's hand flew to cover her mouth, and she and Cathy both burst into nervous laughter.
Rick smiled at them and sipped his beer.
"Doesn't that make you her...bitch?" asked Nicole. This caused Cathy to spit out a mouthful of her cosmo, and send both females into another gale of laughter.
Rick grinned patiently, waiting for them to quiet down. "No, I am her sub. Is your question about whether we play with gender roles, including dressing me in women's clothes? Neither one of us is into that."
Nicole and Cathy's laughter died out as they realized Rick was being totally serious. At that point their curiosity got the better of them and they started peppering Rick with questions.
He explained that several years ago he and his wife found that they both enjoyed her taking charge when they had sex. From there, they got into sharing fantasies and role playing. They realized that Rick had a hot wife fantasy about Kim having sex with others. She started making up stories about fucking other guys behind his back which led to incredible orgasms for both of them.
