I wanted to meet Lady Barbara and wondered if she went to the Whist and Bridge club, but I was informed she was not a member, so how was I going to meet her. From the notes Robert gave me this was some lady, but then again one man's meat is another's gravy or something like that. Had Robert met her at church or somewhere else. She has never been in my shop, well not to my knowledge, but then I don't know everyone who comes in. We do have a number of casual and passing through trade, but we are off the main road so we don't see that many.
Isn't it funny how fate comes to ones aid when you think of some problems? I was working in the shop checking all the postal and banking reports, which have to be done weekly and had just finished. After that I do the stock lists and repack the shelves ready for the coming week.
Mary came into the shop from our attached house; Mary is my aunt who is pregnant with our child. "There's a lady in a chauffeur driven car at the side, she wants to talk to you."
"Did she give a name Mary?"
"Lady Isles or something like that."
I could think of no one of that name well not living round here anyway. Not to be deterred I walked to the car and the door was opened for me by the chauffeur.
"Mr Davies, could you please walk away for ten minutes I wish to talk to Duncan over a private matter."
Her voice was as smooth as honey and so soft too, the smell inside of the car was thick from her heavy perfume, not the soft subtle ones I love so much. This perfume was overpowering. I saw her quite clearly she was between 55 and 65, I just couldn't tell, but she was dressed in a brightly coloured blue and green dress, hugging her thighs tight. A three-quarter sleeved bum freezer jacket, which would never meet at the front, it wasn't designed that way made from the same material as the dress. Her legs were sheathed in sheer nylon stockings with little butterfly motifs on the ankles and high heel shoes. One which was just hanging on by her toes, her ankles was crossed. She had one hand holding her elbow and she was holding a glass of something in the other.
"So you are Duncan, Tarnisha Findlay spoke of you as though you were the answer to a woman's prayer. What you and she were up to has put her in a spin; I just had to see you for myself. Oh I'm Barbara Smith-Sinclair, but call me Babs. Not even Robert called me that."
Whenever she mentioned Robert I came out of my trance, for I was taken in by this lady's whole bearing, looks, dress and manner. How could she ever need the likes of me to help her? Christ, there must be men falling over themselves just to get a look at her.
"So you were one of Roberts ladies, I would never have thought a beautiful lady like you would ever need to seek the help you want."
"Half the men I meet are either too old, impotent or queer; they wouldn't know what to do if they had it on a plate. My husband, if that's what you call him would rather play with little boys than me.
"So Babs now you have seen me what is your opinion. Tarnisha and I just have a passionate liking for something and we both like to participate in," I replied, giving her enough chance to say what she wants. I know what she wants, she has to tell me herself.
"We both have the same passionate liking for the same thing but it's difficult to find others of the same ilk, but I think I have found another; you. Tarnisha was telling me you love the slow models rather than the quick ones. I too prefer that model, which is even rarer, I also hate the rough which I am sorry to say Robert was, but he fitted the other criterions."
"How are we going to see if we do like the same things, if you think you are the same as Tarnisha?"
"I have to get my husband to accept you as a friend first, and then we can see if we are indeed lovers of the same thing. I am having a small party to-morrow evening, black tie I'm afraid, got to keep up appearances. I have a friend who is in need of a partner, silly woman divorced her husband, Janna Luney sorry a bit of a plain lady but my husband likes her, she is the scout mistress. I suspect it's because of the young boys is the reason he keeps inviting her."
"A bit out of my League Babs, I don't usually go to parties where I have to wear a black tie. Oh I have one, but ages since I wore it. I'll come though, could be quite interesting."
"Wonderful, just wonderful, Lumley Hall at seven then, I will look forward to seeing you, Duncan, lovely name. I like manly names. Brown warrior isn't it?"
"Yes something like that."
Mr Davies came back and I got out, I watched the large car glide back onto the road and drive away.
"I've got an invite black tie affair to-morrow night at Lumley Hall, Mary. Personal invite from Lord and Lady Isles, something about local affairs. I'll have to dig out my togs, but I have plenty of time I have all day to-morrow. Now I had better do the stock. It looks Bill won't see me until late to-night." What a liar I have become, I could tell Mary straight but why cause trouble. She is so happy being pregnant and able to come and go as she pleases now. I don't want her to have another nervous breakdown.
It was almost ten o'clock when I pulled into Lauren Browns driveway and she was out the door of her house before I got out of the car.
"Oh Duncan I was beginning to think you were never coming, I have been on hot bricks all day, just thinking about us."
"Well sweetheart I'm here now do I get a kiss or something?"
She jumped up and put her arms around me and almost devoured me with her soft full lips, I love women with thick lips, I noticed Babs had them as well; they really made a woman look sexy, so kissable. "You can come inside for the something, would you believe I am naked under this dress, I am that eager to continue where we left off."
What have I turned on here, she seems like a teenager, they are always banging away and Lauren was acting the same as the ones she keeps reporting about. I wasn't at all complaining, just marvelling at how lucky I have become having all these lovely ladies.
She took me by the hand and we went straight to the bedroom where she started helping me to undress.
"I want to be the seducer to-night Duncan, please give me this privilege. We have seen each others bodies so now there is no mystery, I just want to make love to you."
