"So have you ever paid for sex?" Carly asked Steve, her husband of 6 years.
The question had come a bit out of the blue as they had been sitting in their local pub enjoying a rare night out. Since the arrival of their children spare time together had become a rarity, the freedom to go out whenever they wanted or to drop everything and have sex had long since gone.
Things had got a little stale in recent times; children and work had long since taken over from sex as the most important thing in their lives.
"Where did that question come from?" Steve enquired.
"It was just something I was reading about in one of my magazines the other day," she replied, "they say that 1 in 4 men in their thirties have used a prostitute. I just wondered if you had before we met."
They had asked about each other's past history before, of course, but this was not a topic that had ever come up. Carly knew that Steve had had plenty of partners before they met, but he hadn't really ever been that forthcoming with any of the gory details, and she had never pressed him for details.
After a few seconds' nervous silence Steve spoke. "Yes, I have." Silence again.
There it was, out in the open. Carly tried to appear as if she wasn't shocked, which was difficult given that she hadn't expected the answer. Steve had never really been keen on discussing their past. He had seemed quite shocked when she told him that she had slept with almost 50 men, most of them one night stands, and never really mentioned this again. She had just assumed that this wasn't something he had ever done and didn't bring the subject up again.
This though had now opened up quite a can of worms, and not one that could easily be forgotten now out in the open.
"When was this?" enquired Carly.
"When I was single and living down in London," replied Steve. "I was working all the hours God sent at the time and hadn't had a proper girlfriend for years, I didn't have time. This was just a convenient way of having sex to me."
Carly wasn't sure what to think. She was a little surprised but not shocked or appalled. If anything she was curious and wanted to know more.
"So did you do it often?, What was it like?, Where did you go?" she asked, "Tell me more about it."
"I used to go to a couple of local brothels," Steve started, "They used to put ads in the local papers, I thought about it for ages but finally phoned up and plucked up courage to go."
"I felt a bit guilty for the first couple of times, but after that I started to see that none of the girls seemed to be doing it against their will and some seemed to enjoy it."
Carly took a few seconds to take all of this in, then asked "What was the actual sex like, good?"
"The first couple of times it was nothing special, really straight forward."
"Like what?" she said.
"You know! Just a blowjob and a fuck, simple as that!" Steve said with a grin.
"Hope you wore a condom?" she said
"Yes, every time, no sex without one was always the rule."
"You make it all sound very matter of fact," Carly said with almost a laugh.
"It was, just a simple transaction, sex for money. No messing around, no having to get involved, just sex."
Really it made a kind of sense I suppose, Steve had continuously said that he had always worked very long hours and didn't have the time or inclination to have a relationship.
"So what happened next?" Carly asked.
"I carried on going for the next 4 years, probably once every couple of months, maybe more if the mood took me," Steve continued. "I started to get a bit more adventurous then; I figured that if I was paying I might as well ask for exactly what I wanted."
"Such as?!" asked Carly, actually quite enjoying this now.
"Just a bit more kinky, you know!"
"No I don't know! Please tell me!"
"Well I asked for things like oral without condoms, and to come over the girl, you know, like in porn films!" Steve looked a bit embarrassed. "You know I've always had a thing about this!"
"I certainly do!" she replied. This had always been one of Steve's favourite little kinks and she had been more than happy to oblige.
"Did they let you come over their faces?" Carly really seemed to be getting into this now. This was one of the only things Carly had never been too keen on.
"Yes, I did a couple of times" Steve said hesitantly
"Anything else a bit naughty?" she asked with what could be described as a dirty grin.
"I started to enjoy going down on the girls, I hadn't really got into this with any of the girls I'd been with before, and rimming" He smiled. Steve actually seemed to be enjoying this too now, and started to get a bit aroused.
Carly was also on a roll now, and starting to feel extremely horny. "I wondered where you'd picked up that little trick!"
Steve was the first man who had ever done this to her, she didn't want to admit it at the time but she really enjoyed this. She had even returned the favour to him a few times; not one of her favourite practices but she enjoyed seeing the effect it had on Steve.
"How many girls did you fuck?" Carly asked.
"Must have been at least 30 I suppose, I didn't really count" he replied.
"And why did you stop?"
"I started to realise that I probably did want a proper girlfriend. I had seen a couple of girls for a couple of months at a time and decided that I wanted a proper girlfriend again. This was about a year before I met you."
"And you've never been tempted again?" asked Carly
"No, you've kept me quite busy!"
Carly went back to her drink feeling even hornier; her mind was racing now. Thinking about what it must have felt like meeting a complete stranger and taking money from him to suck his cock, let him lick her, fuck her and perhaps let him come all over her. The idea was really turning her on; she could even feel herself starting to become a little wet between the legs.
After a few more drinks and a lot more flirting, the bell rang in the pub for closing time. After a short walk home, Carly announced, "I've had an idea. Get a drink and sit yourself down in the living room."
"What are you up to?" he asked quizzically.
"Just you wait and see!" she said with a naughty smile.
Steve did as he was told; he got himself a beer from the fridge and sat down. Carly was upstairs for about 10 minutes; Steve's mind was racing with anticipation as he heard her heading down the stairs.
Carly walked into the living room and wished she could have taken a picture of his face. She was wearing her Ann Summers' Secretary dress they had bought for a laugh but never really used; the dress barely covered her knickers and bum. She had a pair of black fishnets, high heels, glasses and a push up bra under the dress. She looked absolutely fantastic and felt more than a bit slutty in this outfit. She also had some heavy eye make up on and bright red lipstick to make it as tarty as she could.
"What's this all about?" Steve said. "You look fantastic!"
"Hi," she said "My name is Lola. What can I do for you tonight?"
Steve was shocked; she had a dirty look on her face and was clearly enjoying her character. Steve soon caught on and decided that this game looked far too much fun to ignore.
"Well, I was looking for a good time," He replied. "And I wondered if you could help me?"
"What is it that you are looking for?" she said, without the hint of a laugh. "Tell me EXACTLY what you want to do to me and I'll give you a price."
