It was getting common for Mom to call special family meetings on short notice and this was another one, but it was in the studio they used for some of their modeling and erotic pictures.
"I've received an emaiI I've been waiting to get for a very long time. I can't tell you more right now, but I need you to do something without asking questions."
Her tone was atypically serious and there was a determined and anxious look on her face.
"Carly, I need you to take a picture of your brother and I side by side ... naked. The camera is already set up and logged into a private, secure server. "
Carly moved behind the camera and waited.
"Carl, get undressed and come over here beside me."
She dropped her robe and stood before us nude in front of the camera waiting for me to join her. Being naked together wasn't anything new, but this felt different somehow, mostly because of her serious nature. I stepped in beside her as she asked and waited for the camera to click.
"OK, thanks. That's all for now, I'll let you know more later if I hear anything from the group. You'll just have to trust me for now."
Group? Geeze Ma, way to be mysterious. Attempts to ask questions about it were met coldly.
Almost two weeks later, she called us together again. Her mood was better, more excited and enthusiastic, but still tense.
"We've been invited to a highly exclusive gathering. This is an extremely special event for me that I've been waiting for years to be invited to. I was beginning to think I was getting too old for them. Their selection process isn't fully known outside of a closed inner circle and no one knows who'll be invited each year. You have to be somewhat famous and have a history in certain fields which I qualified for years ago. But I didn't have an eligible son until the last couple of years."
OK, this was getting intriguing.
"To be considered, a woman must be highly attractive with an excellent body and a history of erotic work. She must have proven she's not afraid to be naked around others and to be in highly sexual situations. She must also have an adult son who is attractive to others."
Aw shucks ma.
"This is a Mother and Son gathering and attendees are usually actresses, models, singers, or other celebrities. Sometimes corporate women are invited if they have the right backgrounds. There is also a Father and Daughter version, but unfortunately, that isn't an option for us Carly."
Carly and I looked at each other wondering where this was going.
"It's really quite similar to what we do at the pool gatherings, mothers and their sons sharing with others. But the arrangements are much more formal and tightly controlled. I don't even know what all to expect, but from some I've talked to, there is some light bondage, general nudity and a lot of sex. Mother son sex, but not with your own relative. It's basically the son offering his mother to other sons and mothers offering their sons to other mothers."
"Mom, we do that all the time here, how is this different?"
"The structure and the people involved. You may end up with a world famous supermodel for example. There is also a session where the mothers engage with each other, so I may be with someone famous from who knows where. It's a just a very high end, high society function of the very elite. One thing I know for sure is that I won't be wearing any form of clothing for the entire time, though there may be some costumes. I will be 'on' and available the whole time, so I must always appear in full glamour mode".
OK, I was beginning to understand a bit.
She told Carly that there were two dates scheduled for the weekend that she had been unable to cancel and she'd need to cover.
She also told us that there would be a package arriving and that we must not open it under any circumstances. And then she left it at that.
It was Thursday before the box showed up. Gloss black with her named engraved in gold lettering. She took it to her room and closed the door telling us we'd see it the next day and that I was to be ready to leave by noon when the limo arrived. We didn't see her again that evening other than for a brief meal where she really didn't say much, but had an odd glow on her face. She radiated happiness and pride.
She asked me to come to her room at 8 AM and asked Carly to leave the house until that afternoon so she didn't see us leave.
Upon entering her room as she asked the next morning, she was fully nude and instructed me to remove my robe. She handed me a basic button down white shirt and a pair of black dress pants, socks and dress shoes. Putting the pants on, I discovered the fly was open with no zipper or other fasteners.
Her face was astounding, impeccable. Eyes dark and smokey, cheeks rouged more than normal and fire red gloss lipstick. I'm not even sure how to describe her hair other than maybe wild the way it was blown out and sprayed stiff, reminding me of the 80s big hair pictures of stars like Tawny Kitaen.. It all just screamed sex.
