Podcasts about both jimmy

  Len passionately expresses his respect & appreciation for Jimmy's comedic reporting on political science. A fan of the Jimmy Dore Show for years Both Jimmy & Len had been big fans of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Comedy Central. No longer. Len listens to The Jimmy Dore Show religiously & encourages listeners of Black Op Radio to do the same. In 2006, the UCB theatre opened in Hollywood, asking Jimmy to come up with a show, different than stand up. Jimmy decided on a video show, combing outrageous clips of politics & pop culture, Pop & Politics. Pop & Politics morphed into The Jimmy Dore Show a radio show on KPFK, which aired for 10-12 years. After hurting his back & having downtime, Jimmy would watch cable news & realized we're not told the truth. Comedians like George Carlin & Bill Hicks helped pull back the curtain for Len, helping him see the deception. Jimmy's high school class Current Events analyzed events printed weekly in Time magazine. George Carlin, Lenny Bruce, Bill Hicks & Dennis Miller inspired both Jimmy & Len. Bill Hicks used to play in Chicago four times a year! Jimmy was able to see Bill's show around 40 times! Dennis Miller's Black & White Special is one of the most perfect specials Jimmy has ever seen! . Len was never really interested in politics, but developed a serious interest in the JFK assassination. When Len saw Exhibit #399, the "Magic Bullet", he KNEW the theory was impossible, creating deep suspicion. Researching the JFK assassination, leads to the MLK Assassination, RFK assassination, Sirhan, John Lennon etc.. Len appreciates how Jimmy exposes truth about Russiagate, Syria, Ukraine, Covid & the Nord Stream Pipeline. Cheryl Atkinson, a former CBS news reporter, recently admitted on Jimmy's show she felt CoVid was a psyop. Researchers were criticized for their views during COVID, despite being researchers for their entire lives. The DARPA program is a Pentagon program & Anthony Fauci was working for the Pentagon. Create the weapon, then create the 'vaccine' to counter the weapon you invented. The CIA lied about COVID, just like Anthony Fauci did & global governments. Lies about funding the virus, the origin, transmission, contraction, ethicacy, social distancing, masks, etc.. People in Hollywood who saw through the COVID lies & spoke out were ostracized, shunned & slandered. The same people who could see through Russiagate came at Jimmy over his COVID views. It was like the people were brainwashed or hypnotized, classic signs of a psyop. All of the people Jimmy Dore looked to for guidance during COVID were silent, not critical or pushing back. It was left up to people like Joe Rogan, Bret Weinstein, Max Blumenthal & Jimmy to speak out. The vaccine does not stop the transmission of COVID. Dr. Robert Mallone invented the mRNA technology, declared the mRNA technology unsafe & gave up. Dr. Mallone was a guest 3 years ago on The Jimmy Dore Show. Even if you've taken the vaccine, you can still contract & you can still transmit the virus. That the virus can still be transmitted despite vaccination nullified reasoning for the illegal lock downs. Jimmy suffered extreme censorship on Twitter & his channel was demonetized. Coincidentally, the countries with the highest vaccination rates also had the largest outbreaks. The government, along with NGOs, were "fact checking" & flagging profiles on social media. People will scream about Palestine, Yemen, Syria etc. but ignore the injustices of the COVID lies. More people died from the COVID plandemic, than in the Iraq war. Where is the public uproar? In 2014, anyone who covered what was happening in Ukraine, received all sorts of push back Oliver Stone interviewed Vladimir Putin about the situation with Ukraine. Jimmy declares comics are supposed to be naturally cynical & critical! No attempt to analyze Ukraine lies.

The Club Strip at the Resort By BradentonLarry for Literotica -  Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels. Shelonda was next and explained that she had been Toshia's counterpart, picking up discarded towels from a different part of the Temple. "I was bending over all the time, and people kept squeezing my butt and playing with me. I liked it at first, but I got really horny very quickly.  Fortunately, a guy stopped and started fucking me. I was really getting into it, and soon a bunch of guys and a woman were all over me." Shelonda provided all the details requested, but by now it was clear that everyone was getting frisky enough that they would need to go find a room to enjoy or start playing right there in the banquet room. Fortunately, Nicole didn't have anything much different to report than the others. She had been assigned the job of masseuse's assistant: fetching miscellaneous supplies, helping guests off the table after they were thoroughly relaxed, assisting with making sure everyone had a happy ending, etc. Of course, she'd had a wonderful time, and seemed to have actually done less work than anyone else. Then they had to decide where to start their free exploration of the Temple of Venus & Aphrodite. "I have to admit," Toshia volunteered, "that I'd like to see what an orgy that's been going on for seven years looks like." "And I'd like to check out that 'dark room' whatever that is," Don added. "A bit of an orgy sounds good to me," Amy said with a grin. Toshia took Don's hand as they headed for the door, and said, "Then we'll check out the dark room." The main orgy room was easy to find. It took up almost the entire fourth floor. There were copious cushions scattered all over the floor, which had soft, luxurious carpeting anyway. Chairs, couches, loveseats, chaise lounges, day beds, and ottomans were abundantly available. Here and there steps led up or down to slightly different levels. Everywhere, though, there were naked bodies pleasuring each other. "Fun!" Amy declared. Everyone agreed with her and immediately started looking for places to join in. Amy took Victor by the big hand and led him into the orgy. From where she was Toshia saw Amy dropping to her knees in front of Victor, eagerly taking his big cock into her mouth. Toshia grabbed Don by the arm, pulled him in the direction of Amy and Victor, and pulled him with her down to the floor. The knelt facing each other as they kissed. Don's hands moved greedily over her back, finding their way down to her ass and squeezing it tightly. Toshia laughed happily as Don's mouth descended on her neck and her hand wrapped around his already stiff cock. Then Shelonda and Nicole joined them, one on either side, Shelonda on Toshia's right, and Nicole on her left. The two black girls proceeded to kiss and caress Don and Toshia everywhere they could reach. Shelonda's right hand slipped in between Toshia and Don and found its way down to Toshia's crotch. Soon Toshia felt fingers slipping up inside her and brushing over her clit. Don was still kissing, sucking and biting at her neck, Nicole was pinching her nipple, Don was squeezing her ass, and Shelonda was fucking her fingers in and out, pressing her hand against Toshia's clit, and Toshia... Then Toshia was coming hard, gasping, shaking and moaning between her friends. Those friends gently laid her down on the floor, and then Don was between her legs, slipping his hard cock up inside her ready pussy. Toshia smiled up at him and pulled him deeper into her best embrace. "Fuck me, love," she said. "Fill me up with your cum." Don leaned down and kissed her. It was just a peck at first, but became a long, passionate, fiery kiss as he moved in and out of her there among the other naked bodies. For a while it was just the two of them, alone on the edge of a sea of writhing, gasping, grunting people. They were part of the orgy that had gone on for seven years, but for now it was just the two of them making quiet intense love. Don gave her another sweet, slow orgasm before she felt him pressing more urgently into her. Then he was thrusting hard as he pumped and pumped his cum into her pussy just as she'd asked. He trembled in her arms and buried his face in her shoulder. Toshia held him close to her and caressed his back and held his head to her. They lay like that for several long, sweet moments sharing their loving intimacy. Then, they became aware of their surroundings. First there were the now familiar sounds of Shelonda and Nicole enjoying themselves fully, and then there were the hands that were moving over their bodies. Toshia felt a hand slipping up along the length of her leg and another that brushed against her hand where it lay on Don's back. Don raised his head to look around, only to have a young woman with straight brown hair and startling white teeth pull his head back so she could lean over his shoulder and give him a long, passionate kiss. When she finally let him go, Don laughed and said, "Well, it's nice to meet you too." "Hi, I'm Brandi," the woman grinned back at Don and then down at Toshia. "Mind if I cut in?" Neither Toshia nor Don were sure who she was asking, but when they didn't object, Brandi assumed they didn't mind, and said, "Great!" She then wormed her way in front of Don to lower her mouth to Toshia's. Suddenly Toshia was kissing this beautiful, aggressive new woman, whose hand was already moving across to cup Toshia's tit firmly. Toshia found herself reaching up to hold Brandi's head in place so she would keep kissing her. As Don pulled away, Toshia murmured her disappointment but continued to kiss Brandi. She was happy to feel Brandi's fingers moving down over her belly and then slipping between Toshia's legs where they found Don and Toshia's mingled juices spilling out. Without hesitating, Brandi pushed her fingers and a healthy helping of those juices up into Toshia, who arched her back and moaned into her new lover's mouth. Toshia was still lying on her back, with Brandi kneeling over her almost perpendicularly to Toshia's left, kissing her Toshia and reaching down to finger Toshia's pussy. This left Toshia's right breast exposed, and someone got his or her mouth in there and fastened upon Toshia's erect nipple. As this mysterious new mouth sucked and pulled on Toshia's tit, Toshia felt this person, who she was now sure was a woman, caressing her ass, and then sliding her hand around to join Brandi's in playing with her. Two more fingers pushed up into Toshia's pussy, and Toshia began to moan around Brandi's tongue. When those second two fingers pulled out of her Brandi worked a third of her fingers into Toshia, and then the mystery woman pushed her slippery two fingers slowly up Toshia's ass. This pushed Toshia over the edge, and she began to shake and cry out with an intense, long orgasm. Brandi finally broke their kiss and Toshia realized from the gentle swaying of the girl over her that Brandi had been getting fucked from behind almost all the time she had been fingering Toshia. Toshia smiled back up at the pretty woman's face and noticed that she also had beautiful full breasts, and Toshia couldn't resist reaching out with her left hand to catch one of Brandi's tits in her hand. Then, she looked down to see the lovely, dusky hued woman or Iranian or Indian descent who was still fingering Toshia's ass. Toshia grinned at this woman, who smiled back. Toshia began to work her body around clockwise, taking a moment to carefully throw her right leg over the dark-eyed beauty, and being careful not to dislodge those probing fingers, until she was able to scoot under Brandi's body to play with those beautiful firm tits of hers. The beautiful brown woman fingering her ass moved in between Toshia's legs and began to lick and suck at her pussy and clit, while Brandi lowered herself so Toshia could get her mouth on Brandi's nipples, one at a time. All while someone steadily fucked Brandi. Toshia could tell from the way Brandi was moving over her that the man behind her was fucking her harder and harder, and then knew he was coming inside her. When Brandi began to shift and threatened to pull away, Toshia reached up to grab her waist and pulled her closer. Brandi got the hint, smiled down at Toshia and carefully moved into position with her pussy over Toshia's mouth. With her hands still on Brandi's hips, Toshia pulled the pretty woman down until she could get her tongue up inside Brandi's cum-filled pussy. Toshia drank down the thick, sweet jizz and promptly began to lick at Brandi's clit. Meanwhile, the woman licking Toshia's clit and fingering her ass had pushed her thumb up into Toshia's pussy, and was flexing her wrist so that Toshia's pussy and ass were being steadily fucked by her digits. Soon Toshia's back was arching up off the carpet as she came long and hard between the two women. She didn't stop licking at Brandi, though, and was soon also rewarded with feeling the pretty woman sitting on her face trembling and shaking as Toshia brought her off. This seemed to be the signal for their little threesome to dissolve. As soon as she caught her breath, Brandi carefully got off Toshia's face and without another word moved off to find fun elsewhere. Toshia also felt the woman between her legs pulling away, but Toshia sat up and caught the woman's head in her hands and pulled her up toward her. They met with a long, playful kiss, mingling the tastes of Toshia's and Brandi's pussies as well as traces of Don's cum and that of whoever had fucked Brandi. "I'm Toshia," she said as she leaned back, pulling the other woman back and over her. "I'm Nadja," said the other woman with a smile. Her fingers and thumb slipped out of Toshia's ass and pussy, but she immediately pushed her fingers up into Toshia's wet and grasping pussy, pressing the heel of her hand against Toshia's clit, as she lay down on top of Toshia and continued to kiss her. Toshia moved her hands over Nadja's petite frame, over her back and down to her tight little ass. She was unsurprised to feel a man's hands also exploring Nadja's backside. Then, whoever the man was, his hands moved up to Nadja's narrow waist and pulled her up a bit. Nadja stopped kissing long enough to say, "I believe I'm about to be violated." "Mind if I watch?" Toshia grinned. "As long as you do it while you kiss me," Nadja said, lowering her mouth to Toshia's again. Sure enough, Nadja's motions on top of Toshia indicated that she was being slowly and steadily fucked. Toshia worked her left hand up between them until she could feel the hard cock sliding in and out of Nadja's pussy, and then began to stroke Nadja's clit with her fingers. Nadja kept working her fingers in and out of Toshia pussy while kissing Toshia and being fucked from behind. Toshia found the whole scene incredibly erotic, particularly as Nadja began to come without taking her mouth off Toshia's. The tiny woman moaned and trembled between Toshia and the man behind her without pausing in her passionate kissing and fingering. Toshia thought she might come again, but the man fucking Nadja beat her to it. Nadja murmured approval into Toshia's mouth, and Toshia felt warm cum on her fingers. As the man pulled out of Nadja, spilling more cum over Toshia's hand, Nadja looked down at Toshia and said, "Now that was delightful." Toshia grinned and said, "I'm not done with you, yet. Sit on my face." "If you insist," Nadja laughed. With almost startling enthusiasm, she pulled her fingers from Toshia and crawled up until she was kneeling over Toshia's face. Holding the tiny girl's ass in her hands, Toshia pulled her down to her mouth, where she began to lick up the man's cum and then to lavish her oral attention on Nadja's hard clit. Nadja pressed down on Toshia's mouth, and leaned back a bit, squeezing her small tits tightly. As Toshia sucked on Nadja's clit and then went back to tonguing it firmly, she thought, This must be what people really mean when they talk about Heaven. As Don pulled away to let the new girl, Brandi, get acquainted with Toshia, he decided to have a look around to see what everyone else was up to. He carefully stood up and took a couple of steps to get out of the actual orgy. He spotted Amy on her back, her head on a good-sized pillow. Straddling her chest with his hands on her head and his cock sliding in and out of her mouth and throat was a trim East Asian guy with his black hair buzzed almost down to his scalp. Amy's legs were parted and ready for someone to get between them. Nearby, Victor was standing over an athletic white guy with short, curly reddish hair, who was sitting facing the same way as Victor and who was sucking on Victor's big cock and fondling his balls, all while Victor flexed his knees, pushing that schlong of his in and out of the other fellow's mouth. Don noticed that an adorable woman was now joining in on Brandi and Toshia's little session, and that a man had begun to fuck Brandi from behind. Near this scene, Shelonda had secured the services of a tall, fit black guy with short hair, who seemed as young as the Nymphets to Don. The young man was sitting on the floor, leaning back on his arms and with his knees slightly bent. Shelonda was sitting on his cock, leaning back, supporting herself with her arms and riding up and down on the cock inside her. Meanwhile, an athletic woman, with large tits, long legs, a tight ass and long straight black hair, had her mouth on one of Shelonda's tits and seemed to have a hand down playing with Shelonda's clit. Before he could locate Nicole, Don felt a warm hand slide up his arm and then squeeze his shoulder. He turned to look into the face of a very pretty woman, who he would guess to be Chinese. She had short black hair, an impishly coy expression and surprisingly blue eyes. Before Don could ask her name or even properly appreciate her slender frame and long legs, this beauty smiled and sank to her knees in front of him. She stroked his cock with her long fingers and kissed the head before sucking it into her mouth. Don gently reached down to caress her hair and watched as she began to bob her head up and down on his quickly hardening shaft. Looking up from this perfect vision for a moment, Don spotted Nicole. The petite young woman was on her back, basically in a missionary position, a muscular white guy with long, curly, brown hair fucking her steadily. However, Nicole's legs were extended out straight, in a V aimed at the ceiling, and there was a tall, caramel skinned woman with a spectacular ass and long, wavy black hair with a bit of gray in it sitting on Nicole's face. In front of this second woman, making out with her, was an athletic Polynesian-looking woman with large breasts and long, wild hair who was in turn sitting on someone's face. By now the mysterious woman in front of him was sucking Don's cock with enthusiasm, and he was again rock hard. He noticed that Toshia was moving around to get under Brandi's body, while the other woman kept her hand between Toshia's legs. Don realized there was too much going on in this huge sex-filled room, and he would simply have to focus his attention. He didn't have to deliberate long to decide where to direct that focus first. Pushing her gently back from his sex, Don bent down, took the Asian woman's face in his hands and kissed her. She responded warmly. After taking the time to really enjoy the sensations of kissing a new and very friendly woman, he said, "I'm Don." "And I'm Liu," she smiled. "I'm very pleased to meet you, Liu," Don smiled. "Now, why don't we lie down so I can give as good as I'm getting?" "That sounds wonderful," Liu grinned and backed away a bit to let Don lie down on his back. She wasted no time then in getting into position over him. Don felt her mouth on his prick again, as he reached up to pull Liu down so he could get his mouth and tongue on her moist, delicious sex. He ran his tongue from her clit up along between her lips, tasting her sweet pussy. She was short enough that his arms were behind her legs, so Don had to lean up a bit to get his mouth on her, but it also meant that he could easily use his hands to caress her ass and spread her cheeks a bit as he pushed his long, strong tongue up inside her. He was aware of her mouth and hands on his cock and balls, but Don concentrated on what he was doing. When he began to focus on her clit, sucking and licking on it, he pushed two fingers up into her pussy. Apparently Liu loved this because she promptly pushed back on Don. He obliged her by pushing his fingers deeper, and then adding a third finger, fucking them in and out of her as he continued to tongue her clit. Soon Don was working his fingers in and out of Liu vigorously and she was shaking and gasping on top of him as a long orgasm wracked her slender body. As she came down, Don slipped his fingers out of her vagina and gave her clit and pussy lips tender kisses. He felt Liu sighing happily, and then she decided to change positions. She pushed herself up so that she was kneeling over him, and quickly moved down, so that she was straddling his pelvis. Don basically lay back and watched as Liu took his rigid cock, wet with her saliva, in her hand, raised it until it was pointing straight up, and then pushed the fat head into her tiny pussy. He reached up and held on to her hips as she slowly sank down on him. Don found himself admiring the muscles of her back as Liu began to move on him. He caressed her lovely ass as she rode slowly up and down on his cock. Once she was comfortable with him in her, Liu began, very slowly, to lean forward, pushing Don's cock "down" further than it was used to. It was uncomfortable at first, and a bit painful for a moment at times, but Liu eventually worked herself down so that her feet were up by Don's shoulders, she was supporting herself with her hands between his legs, and she was leaning low while she worked her body back and forth getting Don's hard shaft to move inside her pussy in an unusual and delightful way. Don was able to squeeze and caress her ass as she rode him. He slowly pushed his thumb into her exposed asshole which made Liu cry out happily. Don was so intent on fucking Liu that he was actually surprised when Amy's face appeared over his. He barely had time to notice that the pretty blonde's face was, as was so often the case, covered with pearly cum before she was kissing him deeply. Don found himself laughing as he returned Amy's enthusiastic, playful, and rather sloppy kiss. When she finally pulled away, Amy said, "Who's your friend, Professor?" "Liu," he grinned as he wiped his face with his forearm. "Why don't you introduce yourself?" "Good idea!" Looking down over Liu's backside as she continued to writhe back on his cock and thumb, Don watched Amy kneel down in front of Liu and just lean forward and kiss the pretty Chinese girl. Then, as if he'd followed Amy, or been carried along in her sexual wake, Victor came over and knelt down by Amy, who noticed him right away. Don could tell there were introductions made and a brief discussion, but since it all took place down near his feet he couldn't make out any of the details. He later found out that what happened next was all Amy's idea. With Amy's help, Liu pushed herself up, relieving the interesting downward pressure on Don's cock. With a brief, luminous smile over her slender shoulder at him, Liu slowly pushed herself up off Don's thick shaft. Amy's hand wrapped around Don and kept him pointing straight up for Liu. The two girls quickly positioned woman and cock so that Liu could lower herself slowly so that Don pushed up into her exquisitely tight, hot ass. "Oh, that feels so good!" Don heard Liu say. "It sure does!" he agreed as he slipped his hands around her thin waist. Liu leaned back then, and Amy coaxed Don to bring his legs together. Don helped support Liu as Victor straddled Don's legs and pushed his big cock down so the fat head could press against Liu's waiting pussy. Don felt Liu tense as Victor slowly eased his thick organ into her. Amy leaned over Victor's shoulder with a grin and said, "How's that feel, Liu?" "So good!" was the answer. Don felt Liu shuddering as Victor kept filling her with that large prick of his. Liu wrapped her long legs around Victor's hips and her arms around his neck, while Don supported her from below and Victor began to fuck in and out of her, simultaneously working her up and down on Don's cock. It was now Shelonda's turn to make an appearance. She crawled up next to Don, kissed him on the cheek and said, "That looks like fun." "It is!" he grinned. "I hope you've been having a good time." "Of course I have," she smiled. "I can't help but notice you're not really doing any work here, Don." He laughed and said, "What did you have in mind?" She gave him another quick kiss, this time on the lips, and then promptly moved around to back in and kneel over his face. With practiced ease, Shelonda lowered her pussy down to Don's face. He happily and greedily began to lap at her sweet pussy and clit, careless of the fact that at least one man had obviously come inside her before now. Don focused on giving Shelonda the tongue lashing she so richly deserved while also enjoying the sensations of having his cock inside the tight embrace of Liu's ass while Victor gave her pussy a vigorous fucking. The first one to come was Liu; Don felt her ass clenching on him as she shook and trembled in his grasp. Victor was next; feeling the big cock inside Liu swelling and pumping cum into her pussy was an interesting feeling for Don. By this time, a man had come up in front of Shelonda as she knelt over Don and she was giving him a nice, deep blowjob, but this didn't keep her from having a long, loud orgasm as Don turned his head a bit from side to side and tongued her clit firmly. Shelonda was still squatting over Don's mouth and well on her way to another orgasm, when Victor slowly pulled out of Liu's pussy. A small flood of warm fluid ran down over Don's balls. Don couldn't see what was going on down there, but in only a moment his legs were nudged apart and he felt an undeniably feminine tongue licking and sucking the cum from him and Liu. After several delicious moments, the mouth shifted from Don to Liu. Don was vaguely aware that Shelonda had managed to coax an orgasm from the man in front of her, and then Don succeeded in making her come again with his tongue. As Shelonda carefully extricated herself from the little foursome that had Don and Liu as the nucleus, Liu began to come again, crying out and shaking. Don let her fall back on him as she whimpered with delight. Don had assumed that the woman who had been licking Liu was Amy, so he was surprised to see a new woman kneeling between their legs. This was a beautiful, middle aged black woman with gray eyes and a lovely bald head. She smiled at both Liu and Don and then started to stand up, but Liu stopped her. "Don't go. I need a little break and I can tell Don here isn't ready to stop playing just yet," Liu said. "Well, OK then," said the other woman with a warm smile and the barest hint of a Southern accent. Liu managed to gently pull herself off Don's hard cock and then twisted around to kiss him goodbye before crawling out of the action. Soon Don was looking down into the beautiful bald woman's smiling face as he steadily fucked in and out of her pussy. Her pelvis was rolled back and her legs were up, resting on Don's thighs which were spread out. One of her hands squeezed and pinched at her breast while the other reached down to stroke her clit. Don was leaning forward on his outstretched arms. "I really should get your name," Don said. "I don't see why," she laughed. "Now shush; I'm about to come." Don kept going without coming through three more encounters. Liu caught up with him as a cute little blonde, who had just rode him to three intense orgasms as he knelt holding her in his arms, kissed him goodbye and crawled off to find another lover or two. Liu bent down and kissed him, saying, "You don't ever stop, do you?" "Why stop?" he grinned back. "Are you ready for more?" "Uh-hum," she said. "Do you want me all to yourself or find some more playmates?" As Don pondered this dilemma, he caught sight of Toshia for the first time in about an hour. Off to the side of the orgy, a tall, fit white guy with short brown hair was laying on his back and his head on a thick pillow. His legs were spread so Toshia could lie on her belly between them and, supporting herself on his thighs, give him what looked like an intense blowjob. Her feet were up in the air, which Don thought was just adorable. Don stood up and said, "I definitely want to get you to myself, but let's go play with those two for now." Hand-in-hand, they crossed to Toshia and the object of her oral attentions. Don gestured Liu to the man on his back, and he knelt down by Toshia and the man's legs. He ran his hand over Toshia's back, and, as he reached her ass, he leaned down and whispered in her ear, "There you are. I hope you've been a very naughty girl." She took her mouth off what Don now realized was a surprisingly long cock, swallowed, took a breath and said, "I certainly have. We weren't supposed to be keeping count were we?" Don laughed, squeezed her ass, and said, "No, but I want details later." "Of course! Jimmy here is about as good at eating me out as you are," Toshia smiled. "I wanted to return the favor." "Well, don't let me stop you," Don said. He noticed that Liu, who had started off with kissing Jimmy deeply, was now moving around so she could sit on his face, facing away from Don and Toshia. Don went back to watching Toshia sucking Jimmy's long prick. He was amazed at how good she had gotten at deep-throating. She was quite intent, and seeing her concentrate like that with a nice hard cock sliding in and out of her mouth was amazingly erotic to Don. He thought about going around to stand in front of Liu, but his cock, which had been straining and hard since he had come inside her earlier, wanted more of Toshia. Don moved his hand so his fingers slipped into the crack of her butt. Sure enough, he found slippery wetness all along between her cheeks. He toyed with her anus, and she parted her legs to let him move lower, until this fingers slipped between her lips and into her pussy. Don continued to watch her going down on Jimmy as he pushed his fingers up inside her messy pussy and then his thumb into her ass. Toshia murmured her approval, but kept bobbing her head up and down on Jimmy's cock. Don expected Jimmy to come, and come hard, in short order, but it was Liu who came first. She gasped and shook for a long, intense orgasm and then sagged to the side. "Wow," Don said, "he is good." "Told ya," Toshia said, looking up from the stiff, wet cock in front of her. "Is she a friend of yours?" "Yes!" Don smiled. "Liu, this is Toshia, and Toshia, this is Liu. And, I take it you're Jimmy; I'm Don." Temple Rites. ‘Oneness with all observers'. Jimmy gave a cheerful wave, and Liu smiled down at Toshia from where she now knelt by Jimmy's head. "She's cute," Toshia admitted. "Let's try something different, boys and girls." Toshia got to her knees, moved over next to Jimmy, on the far side from Don, and beckoned to Liu. The pretty Chinese girl crawled to her and the two women shared a long introductory kiss.  Then there was a bit of whispering and Toshia said, "I trust you two boys can figure out what to do with those pretty cocks of yours once Liu and I get into position." The two women quickly lay down on their sides in a 69 position. Each woman's head was nestled on the inside of the other's lower thigh, and they proceeded to make their mouths acquainted with each other's wet pussies and hard clits. Both Don and Jimmy paused a moment to appreciate how hot the two women looked wrapped around each other. Don half-thought the two of them ought to work out who got which end of things, but he had a strong preference and Toshia's behind was closest to him then; so, he laid down on his side behind Toshia, and Jimmy crawled around to do the same with Liu. Don pushed his hard cock down and between Toshia's legs. He deliberately pushed it between her slippery lips so that it ran over her clit and into Liu's waiting and eager mouth. Don reveled in the feeling of Toshia's wetness wrapped around his shaft and Liu's mouth sucking on his head. He rocked his pelvis a few times, sliding against Toshia and into Liu. He watched the back of Toshia's head as he knew she must be doing to Jimmy what Liu was doing to him. Don slipped his arm around Toshia to cup one of her breasts in his hand. He pulled back and then let the fat head of his cock slip back along Toshia's wet slit until it found the ready opening of her pussy. He slid into her in one long, slow motion, and felt Liu's tongue on the base of his cock and his balls as she licked up the mingled juices that were squeezed out of Toshia's pussy. Don pinched Toshia's nipple and began to fuck himself in and out of her. He took his time, enjoying the feeling of having Toshia wrapped so tightly around him. He kissed her shoulder and looked over her body as it lay in front of Liu's. He watched the two women moving together, against each other and against the men behind them. Then, Don remembered something Toshia had said to him the night when they had first tried the Manor's Disco. "Jimmy," he called. "Let's switch!" Jimmy, who was apparently a man of few words, agreed by promptly withdrawing from Liu and crawling around to get behind Toshia. Don, who had taken the time to kiss Toshia's shoulder again, was a bit slower in getting behind Liu. This time, he didn't tease either himself or Liu, but went ahead and pushed his fat cock into her. With his mouth on her shoulder and his hand on her belly, Don fucked his cock in and out of her with ardent determination. He knew he would be coming soon. The women seemed to sense this as well, and Don could tell, from the feelings at the base of his cock and the way Liu's head was moving, that they were each focusing on the other's clit. Don wanted to finish inside Toshia, though, so he called, "Switch." He smiled when he heard Toshia moan in frustration as she heard this and Jimmy pulled out of her. Of course, as before, the two women didn't stop going down on each other while the men exchanged places. Then, as they were lying down behind the women again, Don said, "Take her ass, Jimmy." This elicited happy sounds from both women. Don didn't hesitate to push his cockhead up against Toshia's puckered asshole, which let him slip into that tight embrace without much resistance. He remembered the first time he had fucked Toshia's ass, there in the big bed room after the Player's game. He had moved slowly, gently, and Toshia had been nervous but willing. Now he pushed into her easily, though if anything her ass gripped him more tightly in an embrace just as hot. Toshia pushed back on him, eager to have him fuck her and fill her bowels with his cum. Don proceeded to fuck in and out of Toshia's backside hard, fast and deep. Jimmy followed Don's lead and he could hear the women grunting and moaning, and then they were both shaking and whimpering between the men as they came long, loud and hard. Don was close but not quite there. He knew what he wanted to do. "Pull out, Jimmy," Don said. "Girls, get up on your knees." As before, Jimmy complied quickly. The girls were a bit slower and more disoriented, but Toshia caught on quickly. When Don pushed his slippery cock in her direction, she promptly caught hold of it, pulled it to her mouth, and sank down on it. Toshia took him all the way in on the first attempt. She swallowed once around him and then backed off, only to commence sucking on him enthusiastically. Don glanced over to see pretty Liu doing much the same with Jimmy's long cock, and then back down to see Toshia sucking him off like a truly wanton slut. Finally, Don let himself go. He pushed Toshia back off his cock, took the shaft in his hand, and came! He shuddered all over his body as a huge gout of white cum erupted from him only to splatter all over Toshia's face. Don groaned and another heavy spurt shot out of his cock to hit Toshia on the chin, neck and chest. Toshia was laughing and grinning up at him. "That's showing a girl a good time," she smiled. Looking over at Jimmy and Liu, they saw that the pretty Chinese woman was in the same state as Toshia. Jimmy had followed Don's lead to the end, coming all over Liu's face rather than in her mouth. Toshia, who had already started scooping Don's cum into her mouth, leaned over to give Liu a long cum-covered kiss. "Now that's fucking hot!" he breathed. Hearing this reaction the two women continued to make out and then proceeded to lick each other clean. Before they could finish, though, Amy, Shelonda and Nicole turned up and began to help. Victor came over while the women were gradually bringing themselves to a fevered pitch as their mouths made their way lower. Don, Jimmy and Victor watched as the five women managed to have what seemed to be one huge nearly simultaneous orgasm. As the men sat by idly stroking their re-hardened cocks and the pile of sexy women recuperated on the edge of the seven-year orgy, Don said, "So, how does some water, a nice shower, and a trip to that dark room sound?" Going to the Temple. Both Jimmy and Liu were familiar with the Temple and offered to accompany the group. They actually went to the showers first and then to the banquet hall for a drink and a small snack, even by Erossian standards. Along the way Toshia and Don compared notes. He acknowledged that his most complicated grouping involved five people, while Toshia had been involved in a grouping that consisted of at least nine, including herself, which featured at least five people doing things to her at a time at one point. ("I had a guy each in my pussy and ass, one of whom had Sanja sitting on his face, a guy in my mouth, and two girls playing with my tits.") This made Toshia the winner of the retroactive orgy competition. Of course, Amy objected to no one's informing her that there was a competition. Don and Toshia were amused by how forward the Temple guests were in the orgy room. As Amy pointed out, "If you aren't ready to play with just about everyone, you probably shouldn't be in that room." When they were all feeling rested and rejuvenated, Liu and Jimmy led them up to the fifth floor and the dark room. They were met by a black-tunic wearing hostess; an attractive woman with honey gold hair; who led them into the ante-chamber. "Since this is the first time for most of you," the hostess said, "I will go over the rules. As you'll notice, the lighting in here is slowly fading. We'll stay here until your eyes have time to adjust to the diminished level of illumination. The dark room is even darker, but it is not pitch black. The whole room is actually white, so once your eyes have adjusted you should be able to see where there is a body and where there isn't. Beyond that, though, you will have a very hard time seeing anything. When you enter the room, we ask that you first move along the outside of the room; which has a tile floor; until your eyes have adjusted. The rest of the room is covered in soft, padded carpeting. Please confine your play to the carpeted area and use the tiled area to move to the exit. After your initial entrance, do not occupy or block the tiled area. Please move cautiously and slowly in the dark room. While you're on the carpeted area, please move around on your hands and knees. There are no steps and no furniture in the room; the only obstacles are other people. Please be careful and forgiving of the occasional accident. Does anyone have any questions?" "Are we supposed to be quiet?" Don asked. "No, sir," the hostess smiled. "You are encouraged to make all the noise you desire. You will notice, though, that people do tend to be a bit hushed." "Say something if you leave, then," Don said to the others. Then when they had become accustomed to the gray light, the hostess took Don by the hand and said, "Everyone please join hands in a chain. Good. Now I will lead you into the room and along the tiled area against the wall. When the last person is in and against the wall, that person; ah, yes, Jimmy, hello; Jimmy will release the hand of that young woman, who will release the hand of the next and so on until I feel this gentleman let go of mine. I will then leave the room and you will be on your own to enjoy yourselves." A door opened then, and they followed the hostess into the darkness. Don found the lack of light extremely disorienting. He found himself not trusting the idea that there would continue to be floor in front of him, and then realized this was why the hostess led them into the room. If she was ahead of him, then, obviously, the way was clear and safe. On entering, they turned to the left. As they went, he occasionally felt a wall brushing against his left side. He could hear the sounds of murmuring, low moans and the occasional gasp. The air was thick with the smell of sex. When Toshia let go of his right hand he let go of the hostess's, and reached out to the left to touch the wall. He strained his eyes to make out anything in the darkness. Gradually he realized he could actually make out darker areas of darkness. The floor at his feet and the wall behind him were slightly lighter shades of dark gray. He could see Toshia next to him, and Shelonda's silhouette beyond. He inched closer to Toshia and whispered, "Weird, huh?" "Yeah. Kind of scary," she admitted, but Don could tell there was excitement in her voice. "You ready?" He heard her take a deep breath and then said, "Let's do this!" They took a couple of steps, felt the carpet under their feet and carefully got down on their hands and knees to move forward. Don could make out deeper shadows ahead, and he carefully crawled forward, not trusting his depth perception in these circumstances. He looked to his right and saw Toshia's shape doing the same, and beyond her Shelonda. He wondered how many first timers wound up with serious bruises or even black eyes in here. Don found himself feeling like he was creeping up on someone to surprise them, and had to remind himself that whoever was ahead of him was expecting the occasional intruder. The first person Don came into contact with was obviously a man, as indicated by the thick, hairy thigh Don's hand found. Slowly, leading with his palm rather than his fingertips to avoid catching anyone in the eye, Don also found the woman who was sitting on the man. He touched her calf first, and gradually worked his way up to her thigh and her butt as they flexed while she rode up and down on the man beneath her. Don's first instinct was to move on, but decided the spirit of the room required a more assertively interactive approach. So, he knelt next to the man and woman in the darkness and began moving his hands over the woman's body. She was facing to his left, so it was Don's right hand that explored her remarkable ass, firmly muscled and yet well-padded. His left hand reached around the top of her thighs and moved over the surface of her belly, enjoying the feeling of her silky skin covered in a thin layer of perspiration. His right hand moved up along the line of her back as she leaned forward over her partner. She was supporting herself with her hands on the man's chest or shoulders, so Don's left hand next came to her breasts, which were full but not too big. He paused there, caressing and squeezing the left one, pinching her nipple a little, which drew an appreciative whimper in the dark. Continuing up her back, Don discovered that she had a long neck and short curly hair. He leaned in and kissed her shoulder, planning to move on into or around the room, but a soft hand reached around to find his left cheek.  Then the woman was turning. Moving slowly, Don and the woman riding the man in the darkness met with a kiss. He could feel the back of her head in his hand, the wonderful pressure of her lips on his, and then her tongue as she teased his lips and teeth. He could feel her breath and hand on his cheek, and he could see the dark shape of her in front of his face. He could hear her sigh as he twisted her nipple with his fingers a bit. That was it. Don could not see the color of her hair or her eyes. He had no idea what her face looked like or anything at all of the man who she was riding. He had no real idea of what was going on in the rest of the room. He knew his companions, including Toshia, out there somewhere in the dark exploring as he was, but he didn't know where they were or what they might be doing, or having done to them. Don couldn't decide if this was extremely arousing, somewhat terrifying, or merely very disorienting, but he knew he was excited; his heart was pounding and his cock was very hard. The woman's hand moved away; Don presumed to go back to holding herself up on the man; and then she broke their kiss. Don felt her head turning away. He would have moved on then, but he felt the man's hand then on his thigh and then taking firm hold of his cock. Well, I should have been expecting something like this, Don thought. Not wanting to be rude, Don stayed kneeling there as the stranger fucking up into the other stranger pulled and stroked at Don's cock. Don continued to play with the woman's nipple, and ran his hand slowly back down her spine, until he came to her ass, which he caressed and squeezed thoroughly. He heard the woman begin to moan and grunt a little as she worked herself on the man's cock with more enthusiasm. As she neared her orgasm, Don moved his fingers around and worked his way between her cheeks, much as he had done to Toshia earlier. Finding the woman every bit as slippery as Toshia had been, Don pushed his index finger slowly up inside her ass. She gasped in the darkness, and said, in a surprisingly soft voice, "God yes! Finger my ass!" Don considered doing more than that to her ass, but then she was coming. Her moaning seemed very loud in the hushed dark room, though Don had heard other people making similar sounds while he was there. Don held on to her as she shook, his finger up her clenching ass, and his hand squeezing her tit. Before she was done climaxing, Don felt her hand on his leg and then in his lap. Finding his cock, she joined the man beneath her in squeezing and pulling on Don. In another moment, the woman was moving around and Don had to quickly take his finger out of her bum. The man also moved, releasing Don's cock and scooting out from under the woman. Don tried to figure out what was going on but was completely lost. Until, that is, he felt her mouth on the head of his cock. She held his shaft tightly and her mouth began to suck hungrily at his head while she began to move up and down on him. Don ran his hands through her curly hair and then over her bare shoulders and upper back; he could tell that she was kneeling directly in front of him. Don sat up a bit higher on his knees, letting the mysterious woman have easier access to his cock. He held on to her head as he gently rocked himself in and out of her talented mouth. Don thought he could make out the silhouette of the man moving around to kneel behind the woman, but it might have been anyone. He was sure though that she shifted her position, raising her behind higher, and then that whoever was behind her was fucking her slowly and steadily. Don was trying to let himself go and not think about how he was all but blind, when he felt someone's soft hands on his butt, and then moving up his body. A very feminine body slipped up against him in the dark. Don could tell that she was tall, with large breasts that she pressed against his back as she wrapped her arms around him. Don reached up and felt her forearm, finding it taut with muscles. The woman behind him lowered her mouth to the side of his neck as her hands explored down along his abs until they joined his other hand in the hair of the woman sucking on his cock. Pressing herself against his back, the new woman rocked with Don as if she were also having her cock sucked. Don heard the woman behind him say in a low, throaty voice, "How does that feel to have her sucking you like that?" "Amazing!" Don breathed. "You can feel her tongue and her lips on you can't you?" "Yes." "Are you going to come in her mouth?" "Yes." "You're going to make her swallow your sweet cum, aren't you?" "Yes!" "Do it!" the woman said from behind Don. "Pump your hot cum down her throat! Fuck her mouth and come for her!" "God yes!" Don sighed. He shoved forward and came hard and long. He shuddered as his cock shot what felt like several large gouts of cum into his mysterious curly-haired friend's mouth. She sucked and pulled on him eagerly as he came. Don sagged back against the woman with the low voice and the big tits as he trembled and reveled in the sensations given him by the mouth sucking every last drop of cum from him. "Mmm," said the voice in his ear. "That was a good one, wasn't it?" "Yes, it was!" Don grinned in the dark. Then as the woman in front of him released his cock, he felt the woman behind him kiss his ear and her hands reached around to take his wet, slippery cock in her hands, as if it were her own and she was going to jerk it off. "Oh, you're still hard. What are you going to do with this big dick now?" Don twisted around a bit and said, "I was thinking of fucking you with it." She chuckled, her breath on his face, "Oh you were, were you? I'm flattered, but I don't think so. Why don't we find someone else to fuck with it?" Don frowned and said, "OK." "Go off to your left," she said. "I'll follow." Don got on his hands and knees and started to move slowly to the left, away from the general area where Toshia and the others had been earlier. He felt the woman at his back keeping her hand on his lower back as she followed him. The very next body part that Don came into contact with was an obviously feminine shoulder, soft under Don's hand. Drawing closer, Don could tell by her motions and the sounds she was making, as well as by her position and the vague shadows, that she was lying on her back being fucked. Don guessed that she had her butt up off the ground as the man screwing her supported her on his thighs, or something, because he wasn't leaning over her at all. Don cupped her full, soft breast in his hand and leaned over her face. He kissed this new woman in the dark, as his free hand found her hair laying in a mess around her head. The woman beneath him returned his kiss enthusiastically, and Don felt the motions through their kiss as the man between her legs abruptly began to shove into her more forcefully. In a few moments, the woman broke their kiss to say, "You got here just in time." Don smiled and said, "Happy to be of service, ma'am." He heard her laugh and then felt her body shifting, followed closely by her hands on his body, searching for his cock. All the while, Don's shadow hovered nearby, her hand on his back. Her earlier partner apparently gone, the woman on her back and Don quickly got organized into a basic missionary position. He settled between her legs and pushed himself into her wet sex, feeling the thick cum left by the previous guy. Her legs hooked around his, and her arms slipped around his back. Don felt his shadow's hands move down to his ass, feeling him flex as he fucked into the woman beneath him and also pushing him into her a bit. "That feels good," said the woman beneath him. "Fuck me just like that." Then Don felt the heavy breasts of the woman behind him on his back, and heard her voice in his ear saying, "Yes, fuck her." Beneath him, the woman he was screwing stiffened a bit, and he felt her hand reaching out behind him. She said, with what sounded like a smile, "Oh, you brought a friend." "Yes," he said, "she's my shadow." Both women laughed at that, while Don continued to move himself in and out of the pussy beneath him. After a while, they changed position, so that Don sat back on his haunches and the voluptuous woman he was fucking was riding him while leaning back on her arms and supported by Don's shadow. Both Don and the shadow played with the woman's full breasts, and the shadow now whispered in the woman's ear. Don heard her saying, "Is that cock fucking you good?" and "Are you going to come on him?" Soon the woman between them was coming hard and vocally, making the room echo with her enthusiasm. As the threesome broke up, and Don's shadow disappeared into the darkness, Don decided that he'd had enough of the dark room. Although working without sight was certainly erotic, he was too visually oriented to appreciate it fully. He made his way to the tiled edge of the room and then gradually found his way to the door. As he and his companions had agreed earlier, he had to let them know he was leaving, though they would all be under no compulsion to leave until they were ready. He said, loudly enough to be heard all through the room, "Don is leaving." He stepped out into intermediately lit room, blinking at the comparative brightness, and then, when his eyes had adjusted, out into a nice lounge with soft, but fairly normal lighting. He took a seat on a comfortable bench and relaxed against the wall. Don was a little surprised that he had been the first one to leave the dark room, particularly since he had found it so intriguing. He was more amused when, about five minutes later, Victor joined him in the lounge. The two men briefly compared notes, though, as before Victor was hardly loquacious. The next person of their party to come out was Shelonda. She was happily disoriented, and reported that she'd just done something new. Of course, Don and Victor were curious, but she said she would show them after she had a few moments to catch her breath. By the time Amy and Nicole joined them in the lounge, Shelonda had regained her breath and was ready to demonstrate. Victor was on his knees and was holding Shelonda facing him but upside down. She was hanging against his strong front, sucking on his cock as he slowly raised and lowered her, all while he was going down on her upturned pussy and clit. This display went a long way to starting the little orgy that now broke out. Of course, after Shelonda had an intense inverted orgasm, Amy wanted a turn, and Victor was happy to oblige. Shelonda joined Nicole and Don on the bench to watch, but by the time Liu and then Jimmy came out of the dark room, the whole group was having sex. And it wasn't long after that that Don found himself in the middle of another five way: Don was fucking Shelonda as she lay on her belly with her legs spread and her butt up in the air a bit; Amy lay on her back, her legs spread so Shelonda could lick her pussy; and Nicole was sitting on Amy's face while leaning over and sucking on Jimmy as he sat on the bench. Meanwhile, Victor was plowing pretty Liu from behind. Only after he had moved over and let Liu suck him while Victor continued to fuck her, did Don come again, this time shooting his seed down Liu's throat. And only after that did Don realize that it had been quite a while since the last person had come out of the dark room and there was still no sign of Toshia. He decided he should go check on her, and would have, but as he was going to the door, it opened and Toshia sagged in the doorway. Her hair was matted with cum, and much of her skin was smeared with it. There was also a considerable amount running in a pearly mess down the insides of her legs. She had a very happy smile on her face. As Don helped her to the bench, he said with a smile, "Wow, honey, did you do every man in there?" "Everyone I could get my hands on," she grinned, "and most of the women, too." They all decided it was time to return to the showers and then to find a room for the night; for actual sleeping. As Don carried Toshia in his arms to the showers, she said, "I seem to really like the anonymity." "Oh?" "Yeah, remember the night in the Disco? In the smoke pit I felt like no one could see what I was doing, and I remember thinking no one knows who I am here. For some reason that makes me so hot!" "I know who you are," he smiled. "You're special," she said and pulled his face down to hers to give him a cummy kiss. Of course, even though they'd had a busy day of sex, they didn't get right to sleep. When they did, though, Don slept very soundly, nestled between Shelonda and his new lover, Liu. To be continued.. By BradentonLarry for Literotica

Late at night in February 1946, Jimmy Hollis and Mary Jeanne Larey parked in a lovers' lane on the outskirts of Texarkana, a mid-size town that sat on the border between Texas and Arkansas. At 11:55 PM, a man in a white cloth mask approached the driver's side door and demanded they get out of the car, before attacking them. Both Jimmy and Mary Jeanne survived the encounter, but almost all other victims of the Phantom Killer — as he would come to be known — would not.In this episode, we discuss the Phantom Killer's crimes, the victims, and the stories of the survivors.But first, Zoey's Something Spooky is the story of Screaming Jenny in West Virginia.CW: sexual assault and suicideSources: https://hauntedhospitality.wordpress.com/2022/10/18/ep-81-the-phantom-killer-texarkana-moonlight-murdersVisit us on Social Media!

Lost in Eros Book III: The Return, part 4Temple Rites. ‘Oneness with all observers'.By BradentonLarry for Literotica -  Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.Jimmy gave a cheerful wave, and Liu smiled down at Toshia from where she now knelt by Jimmy's head.“She's cute,” Toshia admitted. “Let's try something different, boys and girls.”Toshia got to her knees, moved over next to Jimmy, on the far side from Don, and beckoned to Liu. The pretty Chinese girl crawled to her and the two women shared a long introductory kiss. Then there was a bit of whispering and Toshia said, “I trust you two boys can figure out what to do with those pretty cocks of yours once Liu and I get into position.”The two women quickly lay down on their sides in a 69 position. Each woman's head was nestled on the inside of the other's lower thigh, and they proceeded to make their mouths acquainted with each other's wet pussies and hard clits. Both Don and Jimmy paused a moment to appreciate how hot the two women looked wrapped around each other. Don half-thought the two of them ought to work out who got which end of things, but he had a strong preference and Toshia's behind was closest to him then; so, he laid down on his side behind Toshia, and Jimmy crawled around to do the same with Liu.Don pushed his hard cock down and between Toshia's legs. He deliberately pushed it between her slippery lips so that it ran over her clit and into Liu's waiting and eager mouth. Don reveled in the feeling of Toshia's wetness wrapped around his shaft and Liu's mouth sucking on his head. He rocked his pelvis a few times, sliding against Toshia and into Liu. He watched the back of Toshia's head as he knew she must be doing to Jimmy what Liu was doing to him. Don slipped his arm around Toshia to cup one of her breasts in his hand. He pulled back and then let the fat head of his cock slip back along Toshia's wet slit until it found the ready opening of her pussy. He slid into her in one long, slow motion, and felt Liu's tongue on the base of his cock and his balls as she licked up the mingled juices that were squeezed out of Toshia's pussy. Don pinched Toshia's nipple and began to fuck himself in and out of her. He took his time, enjoying the feeling of having Toshia wrapped so tightly around him. He kissed her shoulder and looked over her body as it lay in front of Liu's. He watched the two women moving together, against each other and against the men behind them. Then, Don remembered something Toshia had said to him the night when they had first tried the Manor's Disco.“Jimmy,” he called. “Let's switch!”Jimmy, who was apparently a man of few words, agreed by promptly withdrawing from Liu and crawling around to get behind Toshia. Don, who had taken the time to kiss Toshia's shoulder again, was a bit slower in getting behind Liu. This time, he didn't tease either himself or Liu, but went ahead and pushed his fat cock into her. With his mouth on her shoulder and his hand on her belly, Don fucked his cock in and out of her with ardent determination. He knew he would be coming soon. The women seemed to sense this as well, and Don could tell, from the feelings at the base of his cock and the way Liu's head was moving, that they were each focusing on the other's clit.Don wanted to finish inside Toshia, though, so he called, “Switch.”He smiled when he heard Toshia moan in frustration as she heard this and Jimmy pulled out of her. Of course, as before, the two women didn't stop going down on each other while the men exchanged places. Then, as they were lying down behind the women again, Don said, “Take her ass, Jimmy.”This elicited happy sounds from both women. Don didn't hesitate to push his cockhead up against Toshia's puckered asshole, which let him slip into that tight embrace without much resistance. He remembered the first time he had fucked Toshia's ass, there in the big bed room after the Player's game. He had moved slowly, gently, and Toshia had been nervous but willing. Now he pushed into her easily, though if anything her ass gripped him more tightly in an embrace just as hot. Toshia pushed back on him, eager to have him fuck her and fill her bowels with his cum. Don proceeded to fuck in and out of Toshia's backside hard, fast and deep. Jimmy followed Don's lead and he could hear the women grunting and moaning, and then they were both shaking and whimpering between the men as they came long, loud and hard.Don was close but not quite there. He knew what he wanted to do. “Pull out, Jimmy,” Don said. “Girls, get up on your knees.”As before, Jimmy complied quickly. The girls were a bit slower and more disoriented, but Toshia caught on quickly. When Don pushed his slippery cock in her direction, she promptly caught hold of it, pulled it to her mouth, and sank down on it. Toshia took him all the way in on the first attempt. She swallowed once around him and then backed off, only to commence sucking on him enthusiastically. Don glanced over to see pretty Liu doing much the same with Jimmy's long cock, and then back down to see Toshia sucking him off like a truly wanton slut. Finally, Don let himself go. He pushed Toshia back off his cock, took the shaft in his hand, and came! He shuddered all over his body as a huge gout of white cum erupted from him only to splatter all over Toshia's face. Don groaned and another heavy spurt shot out of his cock to hit Toshia on the chin, neck and chest. Toshia was laughing and grinning up at him.“That's showing a girl a good time,” she smiled.Looking over at Jimmy and Liu, they saw that the pretty Chinese woman was in the same state as Toshia. Jimmy had followed Don's lead to the end, coming all over Liu's face rather than in her mouth. Toshia, who had already started scooping Don's cum into her mouth, leaned over to give Liu a long cum-covered kiss.“Now that's fucking hot!” he breathed.Hearing this reaction the two women continued to make out and then proceeded to lick each other clean. Before they could finish, though, Amy, Shelonda and Nicole turned up and began to help. Victor came over while the women were gradually bringing themselves to a fevered pitch as their mouths made their way lower. Don, Jimmy and Victor watched as the five women managed to have what seemed to be one huge nearly simultaneous orgasm.As the men sat by idly stroking their re-hardened cocks and the pile of sexy women recuperated on the edge of the seven-year orgy, Don said, “So, how does some water, a nice shower, and a trip to that dark room sound?”Going to the Temple.Both Jimmy and Liu were familiar with the Temple and offered to accompany the group. They actually went to the showers first and then to the banquet hall for a drink and a small snack, even by Erossian standards. Along the way Toshia and Don compared notes. He acknowledged that his most complicated grouping involved five people, while Toshia had been involved in a grouping that consisted of at least nine, including herself, which featured at least five people doing things to her at a time at one point. (“I had a guy each in my pussy and ass, one of whom had Sanja sitting on his face, a guy in my mouth, and two girls playing with my tits.”) This made Toshia the winner of the retroactive orgy competition. Of course, Amy objected to no one's informing her that there was a competition. Don and Toshia were amused by how forward the Temple guests were in the orgy room. As Amy pointed out, “If you aren't ready to play with just about everyone, you probably shouldn't be in that room.”When they were all feeling rested and rejuvenated, Liu and Jimmy led them up to the fifth floor and the dark room. They were met by a black-tunic wearing hostess; an attractive woman with honey gold hair; who led them into the ante-chamber. “Since this is the first time for most of you,” the hostess said, “I will go over the rules. As you'll notice, the lighting in here is slowly fading. We'll stay here until your eyes have time to adjust to the diminished level of illumination. The dark room is even darker, but it is not pitch black. The whole room is actually white, so once your eyes have adjusted you should be able to see where there is a body and where there isn't. Beyond that, though, you will have a very hard time seeing anything. When you enter the room, we ask that you first move along the outside of the room; which has a tile floor; until your eyes have adjusted. The rest of the room is covered in soft, padded carpeting. Please confine your play to the carpeted area and use the tiled area to move to the exit. After your initial entrance, do not occupy or block the tiled area. Please move cautiously and slowly in the dark room. While you're on the carpeted area, please move around on your hands and knees. There are no steps and no furniture in the room; the only obstacles are other people. Please be careful and forgiving of the occasional accident. Does anyone have any questions?”“Are we supposed to be quiet?” Don asked.“No, sir,” the hostess smiled. “You are encouraged to make all the noise you desire. You will notice, though, that people do tend to be a bit hushed.”“Say something if you leave, then,” Don said to the others.Then when they had become accustomed to the gray light, the hostess took Don by the hand and said, “Everyone please join hands in a chain. Good. Now I will lead you into the room and along the tiled area against the wall. When the last person is in and against the wall, that person; ah, yes, Jimmy, hello; Jimmy will release the hand of that young woman, who will release the hand of the next and so on until I feel this gentleman let go of mine. I will then leave the room and you will be on your own to enjoy yourselves.”A door opened then, and they followed the hostess into the darkness. Don found the lack of light extremely disorienting. He found himself not trusting the idea that there would continue to be floor in front of him, and then realized this was why the hostess led them into the room. If she was ahead of him, then, obviously, the way was clear and safe. On entering, they turned to the left. As they went, he occasionally felt a wall brushing against his left side. He could hear the sounds of murmuring, low moans and the occasional gasp. The air was thick with the smell of sex. When Toshia let go of his right hand he let go of the hostess's, and reached out to the left to touch the wall. He strained his eyes to make out anything in the darkness. Gradually he realized he could actually make out darker areas of darkness. The floor at his feet and the wall behind him were slightly lighter shades of dark gray. He could see Toshia next to him, and Shelonda's silhouette beyond. He inched closer to Toshia and whispered, “Weird, huh?”“Yeah. Kind of scary,” she admitted, but Don could tell there was excitement in her voice.“You ready?”He heard her take a deep breath and then said, “Let's do this!”They took a couple of steps, felt the carpet under their feet and carefully got down on their hands and knees to move forward. Don could make out deeper shadows ahead, and he carefully crawled forward, not trusting his depth perception in these circumstances. He looked to his right and saw Toshia's shape doing the same, and beyond her Shelonda. He wondered how many first timers wound up with serious bruises or even black eyes in here. Don found himself feeling like he was creeping up on someone to surprise them, and had to remind himself that whoever was ahead of him was expecting the occasional intruder.The first person Don came into contact with was obviously a man, as indicated by the thick, hairy thigh Don's hand found. Slowly, leading with his palm rather than his fingertips to avoid catching anyone in the eye, Don also found the woman who was sitting on the man. He touched her calf first, and gradually worked his way up to her thigh and her butt as they flexed while she rode up and down on the man beneath her. Don's first instinct was to move on, but decided the spirit of the room required a more assertively interactive approach. So, he knelt next to the man and woman in the darkness and began moving his hands over the woman's body. She was facing to his left, so it was Don's right hand that explored her remarkable ass, firmly muscled and yet well-padded. His left hand reached around the top of her thighs and moved over the surface of her belly, enjoying the feeling of her silky skin covered in a thin layer of perspiration. His right hand moved up along the line of her back as she leaned forward over her partner. She was supporting herself with her hands on the man's chest or shoulders, so Don's left hand next came to her breasts, which were full but not too big. He paused there, caressing and squeezing the left one, pinching her nipple a little, which drew an appreciative whimper in the dark. Continuing up her back, Don discovered that she had a long neck and short curly hair. He leaned in and kissed her shoulder, planning to move on into or around the room, but a soft hand reached around to find his left cheek. Then the woman was turning. Moving slowly, Don and the woman riding the man in the darkness met with a kiss. He could feel the back of her head in his hand, the wonderful pressure of her lips on his, and then her tongue as she teased his lips and teeth. He could feel her breath and hand on his cheek, and he could see the dark shape of her in front of his face. He could hear her sigh as he twisted her nipple with his fingers a bit. That was it. Don could not see the color of her hair or her eyes. He had no idea what her face looked like or anything at all of the man who she was riding. He had no real idea of what was going on in the rest of the room. He knew his companions, including Toshia, out there somewhere in the dark exploring as he was, but he didn't know where they were or what they might be doing, or having done to them. Don couldn't decide if this was extremely arousing, somewhat terrifying, or merely very disorienting, but he knew he was excited; his heart was pounding and his cock was very hard.The woman's hand moved away; Don presumed to go back to holding herself up on the man; and then she broke their kiss. Don felt her head turning away. He would have moved on then, but he felt the man's hand then on his thigh and then taking firm hold of his cock. Well, I should have been expecting something like this, Don thought. Not wanting to be rude, Don stayed kneeling there as the stranger fucking up into the other stranger pulled and stroked at Don's cock. Don continued to play with the woman's nipple, and ran his hand slowly back down her spine, until he came to her ass, which he caressed and squeezed thoroughly. He heard the woman begin to moan and grunt a little as she worked herself on the man's cock with more enthusiasm. As she neared her orgasm, Don moved his fingers around and worked his way between her cheeks, much as he had done to Toshia earlier. Finding the woman every bit as slippery as Toshia had been, Don pushed his index finger slowly up inside her ass. She gasped in the darkness, and said, in a surprisingly soft voice, “God yes! Finger my ass!”Don considered doing more than that to her ass, but then she was coming. Her moaning seemed very loud in the hushed dark room, though Don had heard other people making similar sounds while he was there. Don held on to her as she shook, his finger up her clenching ass, and his hand squeezing her tit. Before she was done climaxing, Don felt her hand on his leg and then in his lap. Finding his cock, she joined the man beneath her in squeezing and pulling on Don. In another moment, the woman was moving around and Don had to quickly take his finger out of her bum. The man also moved, releasing Don's cock and scooting out from under the woman. Don tried to figure out what was going on but was completely lost. Until, that is, he felt her mouth on the head of his cock.She held his shaft tightly and her mouth began to suck hungrily at his head while she began to move up and down on him. Don ran his hands through her curly hair and then over her bare shoulders and upper back; he could tell that she was kneeling directly in front of him. Don sat up a bit higher on his knees, letting the mysterious woman have easier access to his cock. He held on to her head as he gently rocked himself in and out of her talented mouth. Don thought he could make out the silhouette of the man moving around to kneel behind the woman, but it might have been anyone. He was sure though that she shifted her position, raising her behind higher, and then that whoever was behind her was fucking her slowly and steadily.Don was trying to let himself go and not think about how he was all but blind, when he felt someone's soft hands on his butt, and then moving up his body. A very feminine body slipped up against him in the dark. Don could tell that she was tall, with large breasts that she pressed against his back as she wrapped her arms around him. Don reached up and felt her forearm, finding it taut with muscles. The woman behind him lowered her mouth to the side of his neck as her hands explored down along his abs until they joined his other hand in the hair of the woman sucking on his cock. Pressing herself against his back, the new woman rocked with Don as if she were also having her cock sucked.Don heard the woman behind him say in a low, throaty voice, “How does that feel to have her sucking you like that?”“Amazing!” Don breathed.“You can feel her tongue and her lips on you can't you?”“Yes.”“Are you going to come in her mouth?”“Yes.”“You're going to make her swallow your sweet cum, aren't you?”“Yes!”“Do it!” the woman said from behind Don. “Pump your hot cum down her throat! Fuck her mouth and come for her!”“God yes!” Don sighed. He shoved forward and came hard and long. He shuddered as his cock shot what felt like several large gouts of cum into his mysterious curly-haired friend's mouth. She sucked and pulled on him eagerly as he came. Don sagged back against the woman with the low voice and the big tits as he trembled and reveled in the sensations given him by the mouth sucking every last drop of cum from him.“Mmm,” said the voice in his ear. “That was a good one, wasn't it?”“Yes, it was!” Don grinned in the dark. Then as the woman in front of him released his cock, he felt the woman behind him kiss his ear and her hands reached around to take his wet, slippery cock in her hands, as if it were her own and she was going to jerk it off. “Oh, you're still hard. What are you going to do with this big dick now?”Don twisted around a bit and said, “I was thinking of fucking you with it.”She chuckled, her breath on his face, “Oh you were, were you? I'm flattered, but I don't think so. Why don't we find someone else to fuck with it?”Don frowned and said, “OK.”“Go off to your left,” she said. “I'll follow.”Don got on his hands and knees and started to move slowly to the left, away from the general area where Toshia and the others had been earlier. He felt the woman at his back keeping her hand on his lower back as she followed him. The very next body part that Don came into contact with was an obviously feminine shoulder, soft under Don's hand. Drawing closer, Don could tell by her motions and the sounds she was making, as well as by her position and the vague shadows, that she was lying on her back being fucked. Don guessed that she had her butt up off the ground as the man screwing her supported her on his thighs, or something, because he wasn't leaning over her at all. Don cupped her full, soft breast in his hand and leaned over her face. He kissed this new woman in the dark, as his free hand found her hair laying in a mess around her head. The woman beneath him returned his kiss enthusiastically, and Don felt the motions through their kiss as the man between her legs abruptly began to shove into her more forcefully.In a few moments, the woman broke their kiss to say, “You got here just in time.”Don smiled and said, “Happy to be of service, ma'am.”He heard her laugh and then felt her body shifting, followed closely by her hands on his body, searching for his cock. All the while, Don's shadow hovered nearby, her hand on his back. Her earlier partner apparently gone, the woman on her back and Don quickly got organized into a basic missionary position. He settled between her legs and pushed himself into her wet sex, feeling the thick cum left by the previous guy. Her legs hooked around his, and her arms slipped around his back. Don felt his shadow's hands move down to his ass, feeling him flex as he fucked into the woman beneath him and also pushing him into her a bit.“That feels good,” said the woman beneath him. “Fuck me just like that.”Then Don felt the heavy breasts of the woman behind him on his back, and heard her voice in his ear saying, “Yes, fuck her.”Beneath him, the woman he was screwing stiffened a bit, and he felt her hand reaching out behind him. She said, with what sounded like a smile, “Oh, you brought a friend.”“Yes,” he said, “she's my shadow.”Both women laughed at that, while Don continued to move himself in and out of the pussy beneath him. After a while, they changed position, so that Don sat back on his haunches and the voluptuous woman he was fucking was riding him while leaning back on her arms and supported by Don's shadow. Both Don and the shadow played with the woman's full breasts, and the shadow now whispered in the woman's ear. Don heard her saying, “Is that cock fucking you good?” and “Are you going to come on him?” Soon the woman between them was coming hard and vocally, making the room echo with her enthusiasm.As the threesome broke up, and Don's shadow disappeared into the darkness, Don decided that he'd had enough of the dark room. Although working without sight was certainly erotic, he was too visually oriented to appreciate it fully. He made his way to the tiled edge of the room and then gradually found his way to the door. As he and his companions had agreed earlier, he had to let them know he was leaving, though they would all be under no compulsion to leave until they were ready. He said, loudly enough to be heard all through the room, “Don is leaving.”He stepped out into intermediately lit room, blinking at the comparative brightness, and then, when his eyes had adjusted, out into a nice lounge with soft, but fairly normal lighting. He took a seat on a comfortable bench and relaxed against the wall. Don was a little surprised that he had been the first one to leave the dark room, particularly since he had found it so intriguing. He was more amused when, about five minutes later, Victor joined him in the lounge. The two men briefly compared notes, though, as before Victor was hardly loquacious. The next person of their party to come out was Shelonda. She was happily disoriented, and reported that she'd just done something new. Of course, Don and Victor were curious, but she said she would show them after she had a few moments to catch her breath.By the time Amy and Nicole joined them in the lounge, Shelonda had regained her breath and was ready to demonstrate. Victor was on his knees and was holding Shelonda facing him but upside down. She was hanging against his strong front, sucking on his cock as he slowly raised and lowered her, all while he was going down on her upturned pussy and clit. This display went a long way to starting the little orgy that now broke out. Of course, after Shelonda had an intense inverted orgasm, Amy wanted a turn, and Victor was happy to oblige. Shelonda joined Nicole and Don on the bench to watch, but by the time Liu and then Jimmy came out of the dark room, the whole group was having sex.And it wasn't long after that that Don found himself in the middle of another five way: Don was fucking Shelonda as she lay on her belly with her legs spread and her butt up in the air a bit; Amy lay on her back, her legs spread so Shelonda could lick her pussy; and Nicole was sitting on Amy's face while leaning over and sucking on Jimmy as he sat on the bench. Meanwhile, Victor was plowing pretty Liu from behind.Only after he had moved over and let Liu suck him while Victor continued to fuck her, did Don come again, this time shooting his seed down Liu's throat. And only after that did Don realize that it had been quite a while since the last person had come out of the dark room and there was still no sign of Toshia. He decided he should go check on her, and would have, but as he was going to the door, it opened and Toshia sagged in the doorway. Her hair was matted with cum, and much of her skin was smeared with it. There was also a considerable amount running in a pearly mess down the insides of her legs. She had a very happy smile on her face.As Don helped her to the bench, he said with a smile, “Wow, honey, did you do every man in there?”“Everyone I could get my hands on,” she grinned, “and most of the women, too.”They all decided it was time to return to the showers and then to find a room for the night; for actual sleeping. As Don carried Toshia in his arms to the showers, she said, “I seem to really like the anonymity.”“Oh?”“Yeah, remember the night in the Disco? In the smoke pit I felt like no one could see what I was doing, and I remember thinking no one knows who I am here. For some reason that makes me so hot!”“I know who you are,” he smiled.“You're special,” she said and pulled his face down to hers to give him a cummy kiss.Of course, even though they'd had a busy day of sex, they didn't get right to sleep. When they did, though, Don slept very soundly, nestled between Shelonda and his new lover, Liu.To be continued..By BradentonLarry for Literotica

Of course, Amy objected to no one's informing her that there was a competition. Don and Toshia were amused by how forward the Temple guests were in the orgy room. As Amy pointed out, “If you aren't ready to play with just about everyone, you probably shouldn't be in that room.”When they were all feeling rested and rejuvenated, Liu and Jimmy led them up to the fifth floor and the dark room. They were met by a black-tunic wearing hostess; an attractive woman with honey gold hair; who led them into the ante-chamber. “Since this is the first time for most of you,” the hostess said, “I will go over the rules. As you'll notice, the lighting in here is slowly fading. We'll stay here until your eyes have time to adjust to the diminished level of illumination. The dark room is even darker, but it is not pitch black. The whole room is actually white, so once your eyes have adjusted you should be able to see where there is a body and where there isn't. Beyond that, though, you will have a very hard time seeing anything. When you enter the room, we ask that you first move along the outside of the room; which has a tile floor; until your eyes have adjusted. The rest of the room is covered in soft, padded carpeting. Please confine your play to the carpeted area and use the tiled area to move to the exit. After your initial entrance, do not occupy or block the tiled area. Please move cautiously and slowly in the dark room. While you're on the carpeted area, please move around on your hands and knees. There are no steps and no furniture in the room; the only obstacles are other people. Please be careful and forgiving of the occasional accident. Does anyone have any questions?”“Are we supposed to be quiet?” Don asked.“No, sir,” the hostess smiled. “You are encouraged to make all the noise you desire. You will notice, though, that people do tend to be a bit hushed.”“Say something if you leave, then,” Don said to the others.Then when they had become accustomed to the gray light, the hostess took Don by the hand and said, “Everyone please join hands in a chain. Good. Now I will lead you into the room and along the tiled area against the wall. When the last person is in and against the wall, that person; ah, yes, Jimmy, hello; Jimmy will release the hand of that young woman, who will release the hand of the next and so on until I feel this gentleman let go of mine. I will then leave the room and you will be on your own to enjoy yourselves.”A door opened then, and they followed the hostess into the darkness. Don found the lack of light extremely disorienting. He found himself not trusting the idea that there would continue to be floor in front of him, and then realized this was why the hostess led them into the room. If she was ahead of him, then, obviously, the way was clear and safe. On entering, they turned to the left. As they went, he occasionally felt a wall brushing against his left side. He could hear the sounds of murmuring, low moans and the occasional gasp. The air was thick with the smell of sex. When Toshia let go of his right hand he let go of the hostess's, and reached out to the left to touch the wall. He strained his eyes to make out anything in the darkness. Gradually he realized he could actually make out darker areas of darkness. The floor at his feet and the wall behind him were slightly lighter shades of dark gray. He could see Toshia next to him, and Shelonda's silhouette beyond. He inched closer to Toshia and whispered, “Weird, huh?”“Yeah. Kind of scary,” she admitted, but Don could tell there was excitement in her voice.“You ready?”He heard her take a deep breath and then said, “Let's do this!”They took a couple of steps, felt the carpet under their feet and carefully got down on their hands and knees to move forward. Don could make out deeper shadows ahead, and he carefully crawled forward, not trusting his depth perception in these circumstances. He looked to his right and saw Toshia's shape doing the same, and beyond her Shelonda. He wondered how many first timers wound up with serious bruises or even black eyes in here. Don found himself feeling like he was creeping up on someone to surprise them, and had to remind himself that whoever was ahead of him was expecting the occasional intruder.The first person Don came into contact with was obviously a man, as indicated by the thick, hairy thigh Don's hand found. Slowly, leading with his palm rather than his fingertips to avoid catching anyone in the eye, Don also found the woman who was sitting on the man. He touched her calf first, and gradually worked his way up to her thigh and her butt as they flexed while she rode up and down on the man beneath her. Don's first instinct was to move on, but decided the spirit of the room required a more assertively interactive approach. So, he knelt next to the man and woman in the darkness and began moving his hands over the woman's body. She was facing to his left, so it was Don's right hand that explored her remarkable ass, firmly muscled and yet well-padded. His left hand reached around the top of her thighs and moved over the surface of her belly, enjoying the feeling of her silky skin covered in a thin layer of perspiration. His right hand moved up along the line of her back as she leaned forward over her partner. She was supporting herself with her hands on the man's chest or shoulders, so Don's left hand next came to her breasts, which were full but not too big. He paused there, caressing and squeezing the left one, pinching her nipple a little, which drew an appreciative whimper in the dark. Continuing up her back, Don discovered that she had a long neck and short curly hair. He leaned in and kissed her shoulder, planning to move on into or around the room, but a soft hand reached around to find his left cheek. Then the woman was turning. Moving slowly, Don and the woman riding the man in the darkness met with a kiss. He could feel the back of her head in his hand, the wonderful pressure of her lips on his, and then her tongue as she teased his lips and teeth. He could feel her breath and hand on his cheek, and he could see the dark shape of her in front of his face. He could hear her sigh as he twisted her nipple with his fingers a bit. That was it. Don could not see the color of her hair or her eyes. He had no idea what her face looked like or anything at all of the man who she was riding. He had no real idea of what was going on in the rest of the room. He knew his companions, including Toshia, out there somewhere in the dark exploring as he was, but he didn't know where they were or what they might be doing, or having done to them. Don couldn't decide if this was extremely arousing, somewhat terrifying, or merely very disorienting, but he knew he was excited; his heart was pounding and his cock was very hard.The woman's hand moved away; Don presumed to go back to holding herself up on the man; and then she broke their kiss. Don felt her head turning away. He would have moved on then, but he felt the man's hand then on his thigh and then taking firm hold of his cock. Well, I should have been expecting something like this, Don thought. Not wanting to be rude, Don stayed kneeling there as the stranger fucking up into the other stranger pulled and stroked at Don's cock. Don continued to play with the woman's nipple, and ran his hand slowly back down her spine, until he came to her ass, which he caressed and squeezed thoroughly. He heard the woman begin to moan and grunt a little as she worked herself on the man's cock with more enthusiasm. As she neared her orgasm, Don moved his fingers around and worked his way between her cheeks, much as he had done to Toshia earlier. Finding the woman every bit as slippery as Toshia had been, Don pushed his index finger slowly up inside her ass. She gasped in the darkness, and said, in a surprisingly soft voice, “God yes! Finger my ass!”Don considered doing more than that to her ass, but then she was coming. Her moaning seemed very loud in the hushed dark room, though Don had heard other people making similar sounds while he was there. Don held on to her as she shook, his finger up her clenching ass, and his hand squeezing her tit. Before she was done climaxing, Don felt her hand on his leg and then in his lap. Finding his cock, she joined the man beneath her in squeezing and pulling on Don. In another moment, the woman was moving around and Don had to quickly take his finger out of her bum. The man also moved, releasing Don's cock and scooting out from under the woman. Don tried to figure out what was going on but was completely lost. Until, that is, he felt her mouth on the head of his cock.She held his shaft tightly and her mouth began to suck hungrily at his head while she began to move up and down on him. Don ran his hands through her curly hair and then over her bare shoulders and upper back; he could tell that she was kneeling directly in front of him. Don sat up a bit higher on his knees, letting the mysterious woman have easier access to his cock. He held on to her head as he gently rocked himself in and out of her talented mouth. Don thought he could make out the silhouette of the man moving around to kneel behind the woman, but it might have been anyone. He was sure though that she shifted her position, raising her behind higher, and then that whoever was behind her was fucking her slowly and steadily.Don was trying to let himself go and not think about how he was all but blind, when he felt someone's soft hands on his butt, and then moving up his body. A very feminine body slipped up against him in the dark. Don could tell that she was tall, with large breasts that she pressed against his back as she wrapped her arms around him. Don reached up and felt her forearm, finding it taut with muscles. The woman behind him lowered her mouth to the side of his neck as her hands explored down along his abs until they joined his other hand in the hair of the woman sucking on his cock. Pressing herself against his back, the new woman rocked with Don as if she were also having her cock sucked.Don heard the woman behind him say in a low, throaty voice, “How does that feel to have her sucking you like that?”“Amazing!” Don breathed.“You can feel her tongue and her lips on you can't you?”“Yes.”“Are you going to come in her mouth?”“Yes.”“You're going to make her swallow your sweet cum, aren't you?”“Yes!”“Do it!” the woman said from behind Don. “Pump your hot cum down her throat! Fuck her mouth and come for her!”“God yes!” Don sighed. He shoved forward and came hard and long. He shuddered as his cock shot what felt like several large gouts of cum into his mysterious curly-haired friend's mouth. She sucked and pulled on him eagerly as he came. Don sagged back against the woman with the low voice and the big tits as he trembled and reveled in the sensations given him by the mouth sucking every last drop of cum from him.“Mmm,” said the voice in his ear. “That was a good one, wasn't it?”“Yes, it was!” Don grinned in the dark. Then as the woman in front of him released his cock, he felt the woman behind him kiss his ear and her hands reached around to take his wet, slippery cock in her hands, as if it were her own and she was going to jerk it off. “Oh, you're still hard. What are you going to do with this big dick now?”Don twisted around a bit and said, “I was thinking of fucking you with it.”She chuckled, her breath on his face, “Oh you were, were you? I'm flattered, but I don't think so. Why don't we find someone else to fuck with it?”Don frowned and said, “OK.”“Go off to your left,” she said. “I'll follow.”Don got on his hands and knees and started to move slowly to the left, away from the general area where Toshia and the others had been earlier. He felt the woman at his back keeping her hand on his lower back as she followed him. The very next body part that Don came into contact with was an obviously feminine shoulder, soft under Don's hand. Drawing closer, Don could tell by her motions and the sounds she was making, as well as by her position and the vague shadows, that she was lying on her back being fucked. Don guessed that she had her butt up off the ground as the man screwing her supported her on his thighs, or something, because he wasn't leaning over her at all. Don cupped her full, soft breast in his hand and leaned over her face. He kissed this new woman in the dark, as his free hand found her hair laying in a mess around her head. The woman beneath him returned his kiss enthusiastically, and Don felt the motions through their kiss as the man between her legs abruptly began to shove into her more forcefully.In a few moments, the woman broke their kiss to say, “You got here just in time.”Don smiled and said, “Happy to be of service, ma'am.”He heard her laugh and then felt her body shifting, followed closely by her hands on his body, searching for his cock. All the while, Don's shadow hovered nearby, her hand on his back. Her earlier partner apparently gone, the woman on her back and Don quickly got organized into a basic missionary position. He settled between her legs and pushed himself into her wet sex, feeling the thick cum left by the previous guy. Her legs hooked around his, and her arms slipped around his back. Don felt his shadow's hands move down to his ass, feeling him flex as he fucked into the woman beneath him and also pushing him into her a bit.“That feels good,” said the woman beneath him. “Fuck me just like that.”Then Don felt the heavy breasts of the woman behind him on his back, and heard her voice in his ear saying, “Yes, fuck her.”Beneath him, the woman he was screwing stiffened a bit, and he felt her hand reaching out behind him. She said, with what sounded like a smile, “Oh, you brought a friend.”“Yes,” he said, “she's my shadow.”Both women laughed at that, while Don continued to move himself in and out of the pussy beneath him. After a while, they changed position, so that Don sat back on his haunches and the voluptuous woman he was fucking was riding him while leaning back on her arms and supported by Don's shadow. Both Don and the shadow played with the woman's full breasts, and the shadow now whispered in the woman's ear. Don heard her saying, “Is that cock fucking you good?” and “Are you going to come on him?” Soon the woman between them was coming hard and vocally, making the room echo with her enthusiasm.As the threesome broke up, and Don's shadow disappeared into the darkness, Don decided that he'd had enough of the dark room. Although working without sight was certainly erotic, he was too visually oriented to appreciate it fully. He made his way to the tiled edge of the room and then gradually found his way to the door. As he and his companions had agreed earlier, he had to let them know he was leaving, though they would all be under no compulsion to leave until they were ready. He said, loudly enough to be heard all through the room, “Don is leaving.”He stepped out into intermediately lit room, blinking at the comparative brightness, and then, when his eyes had adjusted, out into a nice lounge with soft, but fairly normal lighting. He took a seat on a comfortable bench and relaxed against the wall. Don was a little surprised that he had been the first one to leave the dark room, particularly since he had found it so intriguing. He was more amused when, about five minutes later, Victor joined him in the lounge. The two men briefly compared notes, though, as before Victor was hardly loquacious. The next person of their party to come out was Shelonda. She was happily disoriented, and reported that she'd just done something new. Of course, Don and Victor were curious, but she said she would show them after she had a few moments to catch her breath.By the time Amy and Nicole joined them in the lounge, Shelonda had regained her breath and was ready to demonstrate. Victor was on his knees and was holding Shelonda facing him but upside down. She was hanging against his strong front, sucking on his cock as he slowly raised and lowered her, all while he was going down on her upturned pussy and clit. This display went a long way to starting the little orgy that now broke out. Of course, after Shelonda had an intense inverted orgasm, Amy wanted a turn, and Victor was happy to oblige. Shelonda joined Nicole and Don on the bench to watch, but by the time Liu and then Jimmy came out of the dark room, the whole group was having sex.And it wasn't long after that that Don found himself in the middle of another five way: Don was fucking Shelonda as she lay on her belly with her legs spread and her butt up in the air a bit; Amy lay on her back, her legs spread so Shelonda could lick her pussy; and Nicole was sitting on Amy's face while leaning over and sucking on Jimmy as he sat on the bench. Meanwhile, Victor was plowing pretty Liu from behind.Only after he had moved over and let Liu suck him while Victor continued to fuck her, did Don come again, this time shooting his seed down Liu's throat. And only after that did Don realize that it had been quite a while since the last person had come out of the dark room and there was still no sign of Toshia. He decided he should go check on her, and would have, but as he was going to the door, it opened and Toshia sagged in the doorway. Her hair was matted with cum, and much of her skin was smeared with it. There was also a considerable amount running in a pearly mess down the insides of her legs. She had a very happy smile on her face.As Don helped her to the bench, he said with a smile, “Wow, honey, did you do every man in there?”“Everyone I could get my hands on,” she grinned, “and most of the women, too.”They all decided it was time to return to the showers and then to find a room for the night; for actual sleeping. As Don carried Toshia in his arms to the showers, she said, “I seem to really like the anonymity.”“Oh?”“Yeah, remember the night in the Disco? In the smoke pit I felt like no one could see what I was doing, and I remember thinking no one knows who I am here. For some reason that makes me so hot!”“I know who you are,” he smiled.“You're special,” she said and pulled his face down to hers to give him a cummy kiss.Of course, even though they'd had a busy day of sex, they didn't get right to sleep. When they did, though, Don slept very soundly, nestled between Shelonda and his new lover, Liu.To be continued..By BradentonLarry for Literotica

In this episode, Cody has a conversation with Alaskan author Don Rearden. Don attributes being an author to his experiences and upbringing in rural Alaska. When he was  a kid, he and his family moved to a number of small communities in Southwest Alaska. There, he dealt with the loss of friends to suicide, drug and alcohol abuse and going missing. As a youth and as an adult, he made sense of this real-life horror and tragedy by turning to creativity. He says that that has allowed him to explore and embrace the darkness—both figuratively and literally. In addition to his fiction work, Don has also co-authored two non-fiction books—Never Quit with Jimmy Settle and Warrior’s Creed with Roger Sparks. Both Jimmy and Roger are former pararescuemen—or PJs—with stories of perseverance, wisdom and heroism. Both books detail the path that led Jimmy and Roger to become PJs and the extraordinary experiences that made them who they are today. Don says that when people have experienced that kind of high-level, intense trauma, we have to listen and learn from it.
