From Lost In Eros – Book 1Another Day of DiscoveryIn 10 Parts By BradentonLarry. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels. “Do you know where my clothes went?” Don asked the chamber maid.“They have been collected for the laundry.”“Ah, well, that's fine.”“You may get more from the wardrobe anytime,” Deidre said as she led him toward the door.“That's good to know. So, where did the Lady go exactly?” Don asked. He had seen enough vampire movies and television shows to be wary of hosts that entertain you through the night but are nowhere to be seen in the morning.“She spends time in the garden, goes swimming, and then makes rounds of the Manor with the Lord.”“Swimming?”“In the pool,” Deidre smiled at him.“Of course,” Don said, “I should have guessed there'd be a pool.”“There are three pools that I know of.”“Naturally,” Don chuckled. “So, this garden; I suppose you could take me there?”“Well, I am supposed to take you back to the ballroom,” she said with the hint of a frown on her brow.“But after that, when my friend gets there, could you take us to the garden?”Deidre did frown at this suggestion. “I really should return to my Lady's chambers. In case she needs me.”“I understand,” Don said, “but what about this? It can't take too long to get to the garden, can it?”“Well, probably not.”“Probably not?”Deidre shrugged adorably.Don decided to soldier on with, “Well, say I had slept longer, or we had taken longer to play, ”“You did take longer than I expected,” she pointed out.Don smiled, “Okay, so even longer, wouldn't you then be returning to the Lady's chambers even later than you will now?”Deidre considered this for a moment, and said, “I suppose so, yes.”“So, if it doesn't take long to take us to the garden, it would not be unreasonable for the Lady to think you would be busy for so long.”“You have a point, Don. Very well, if your friend is waiting for you in the ballroom, I will take you to the garden.”“Thank you, Deidre the beautiful and fair,” Don bowed. This made Deidre giggle a little, and Don thought he could develop quite an infatuation for this lovely young woman.All these negotiations were in vain, though, for in the next minute when they came into the ballroom Toshia was nowhere to be seen. Don couldn't see her at the table opposite the doors, or in the alcoves to either side, though there were a number of people still sleeping and otherwise quietly engaged.Don shrugged, and Deidre kissed him again, almost chastely considering their earlier activities, and left him to wait.Don watched as a small troupe of butlers and maids (the latter in French maid outfits, of course) moved systematically through the ballroom, collecting stray bits of clothing, apparently for laundering. Another contingent turned up to clean, sweeping and wiping efficiently and almost mechanically. He saw some butlers heading toward the food tables by the doors, and moved quickly to get there first.“Hold on a moment, guys,” he said as he grabbed an apple, an orange, a couple of bananas and a bunch of grapes. He cradled all of these in his arms and also managed to carry two full glasses of the delicious water over to the big table where he was to wait for Toshia, which had already been cleared of fruit. Setting aside the orange, a banana, the grapes and one of the glasses of water for Toshia, Don ate the other banana, and drank some of his water. Like the night before, he felt strangely invigorated by the water and satisfied by the fruit. Looking around, the only trash bin he could see was back by the doors, so he took his apple and the banana peel and headed over to it. Once the peel was disposed of, he bit into the apple and started to stroll back across the dance floor.He wasn't surprised that the fruit was crisp and juicy, as well as the most delicious apple he'd ever had. Chewing it, he wandered over to the alcove to the right of the big table. Relative to the bright sunlight now flooding the dance floor from the windows high above, the alcoves were now, without the benefit of candlelight, relatively darker than the night before. Don took another bite of his apple, and took a step closer to the alcove. There on the big padded platform at the back of the alcove was a group of naked bodies that were obviously not sleeping. Stepping into the darkness, Don thought he could make out parts for at least four different bodies, all female. Don took a step back, checked to make sure none of the cleaners were heading for the food he'd set aside for Toshia and to see if she herself had turned up. Satisfied, and remembering that he had specified the table or the alcoves to either side, Don decided he might as well have a seat and watch the show.He went into the alcove and quietly took a seat on the side bench to the right, thinking he would see if Toshia came in and approached the table. His eyes quickly adjusted to the shadows, and he saw that there were indeed four women there. Closest to him, with her head toward the dance floor and her legs toward the rear of the alcove, was a woman with a beautiful, exceptionally fit back that looked familiar to Don. He actually suspected it was Suzy from the night before. This woman, possibly Suzy, had her right leg up, bent at the knee. Another woman had her face nestled between the first woman's legs, obviously going down on her. Don could only really see the top of this second woman's head. Beyond this, Don could make out legs and arms but couldn't tell clearly what was going on, other than that there were more hands on “possibly Suzy” than just the woman's between her legs. Don thought the whole scene was incredibly erotic, and his stiffening cock agreed.Don took another bite of his dwindling apple, glanced out to see an utter lack of Toshia, and then decided to get a better look of the shenanigans going on in front of him. He got up and moved across the alcove. As he passed, he confirmed that it was indeed Suzy lying on her side. In front of her, kissing her, was the little brunette, Suki, who had lost both her dress and her red bow. Suki and the girl between Suzy's legs formed a kind of triangle. Suki was small enough that she had her right leg, the one on the bed, bent so that it fit in the middle of the triangle. Her left leg was cast over the waist of the woman going down on Suzy. Laying on her left side behind Suki, with her feet toward the dance floor, and her own face between the legs of the woman licking Suzy, was a woman Don was sure was Sandy, also without her ball dress, intently licking at the unidentified woman's cunt.Don stood there watching for several minutes, chewing his apple and idly stroking his cock. He was just about to sit down and get more comfortable when Suki moved away from Suzy's face to kiss and suck at her tits. As a result, Suzy saw Don standing there. She smiled broadly and said, “Hi Don! Jump in!”Don grinned at her, nodded, and set his apple core down on the bench. He was still chewing his last bite as crawled up onto the big section. He leaned down and kissed Sandy's soft ass, and then lay down on his side, basically perpendicular to her, facing the rear of the alcove. He leaned in again and kissed her other ass cheek. She wiggled it in appreciation, and he reached up with his left hand to squeeze and caress it. He parted her cheeks a little and ran his tongue between them. Don then moved his hand up around her right thigh, and gently nudged it upward. Sandy got the idea right away and lifted her leg just as Suzy and the woman Sandy was licking had theirs, bent at the knee. Don scooted in closer and laid his head gently on the inside of Sandy's left thigh, and, without much prelude, slipped his tongue between her cunt lips and into her delicious, moist vagina. He fucked his tongue in and out of her a bit, and then settled in to tonguing her clit steadily. As he did this, he used both hands to caress and squeeze her ass. This went on for several delicious minutes, before Don could hear the sounds of Suzy moaning and repeating, “Fuck yes! Fuck yes!” about a dozen times. This was soon followed by a more muffled set of moanings, which Don thought must be the woman between Sandy's mouth and Suzy's cunt. Don continued to lavish Sandy's clit with his tongue's affection throughout all of the commotion.Soon, though, there was a general shifting of bodies, as the women struggled to find a new, fun configuration. Sandy reached down to gently push him away, but as soon as he moved far enough, she scrambled around so that her leg was out from under his head, and then she pushed him back down so that he was on his back and straddled his face. Delighted with this turn of events, Don got his hands on her ass again and pulled her cunt down to his eager mouth. He went right back to what he'd been doing, licking and sucking at her clit. Looking up, he could see Suki's perfect little tits as she leaned over to suck on Sandy's tits.Then Don was a little surprised to feel a hand taking hold of his cock, and then less surprised when the hand was followed by a mouth, licking up the shaft, then sucking on the head and then moving up and down on him. He found himself thinking, ‘Okay, so there is a heaven,' as he concentrated on Sandy's clit, trying to ignore the wonderful sensations on his cock. It wasn't long before Sandy was pushing down hard on his tongue, and then she was coming; trembling and moaning as she rode his tongue as long as she could stand. Ultimately, though, shaking and giggling a little, she fell off his face to the side. Suki's upside down face was smiling down at him, and by rolling his head back he could see that while Sandy had been over him Suki had been sitting on Suzy's face.Don's attention was drawn from this erotic sight by the fact that his cock was no longer being sucked, and someone was now straddling him. He quickly looked down, and saw none other than Toshia, who had his hard cock in her hand and was rubbing it between her legs, getting it into just the right position. She grinned at him and said, “Good morning, Don.”Toshia shares the morning fun with Don & the girls.Toshia woke up with a smile on her face. She threw the covers off her and stretched. She looked around a little and saw the morning light coming through the windows into the Lord's bedroom. She felt well rested and physically content. Today she and Don would try to get home, but for right now she would just lie here for a moment and bask in the afterglow of a day and night of intense sex; and lots of it! She sighed happily as she felt warm hands moving over her thighs, pushing them apart. She parted her legs willingly, and shivered a little as she felt hot breath on her exposed cunt. Fingers stroked her, and she knew at once that it was not the Lord between her legs. She thought the appropriate response to this was probably shock and indignation. Certainly this was her reaction the day before when she woke up next to Don and felt his fingers between her legs. Now, though, she didn't really mind who was touching her as long as they kept doing it so well. Besides, she thought, it's probably Don anyway, and I want him to lick me. She felt a mouth on her then, and the fingers opened her up. A soft, strong tongue delved into her and over her. She shuddered and murmured, “That's nice.”She parted her legs further, and felt masculine hands take hold of her upper thighs, holding her against the mouth that was now making love to her cunt and clit. Toshia sighed again, relaxing into the bed. Her hands moved over her own body, caressing it. She held onto her tits and squeezed them. A tremor passed through her and she arched her back a little. Turning her head to the side, she caught a glimpse of the wall through which she could still see the Lady's room. She could make out a woman lying there with her back to the window-wall. The woman had long red hair, so it wasn't the Lady. Toshia could see a man's shoulder and part of his back past the redhead's body. Though he was now with some other woman, Don was still in that room.A moment of anxiety came and went quickly, replaced by curiosity. She looked down to see the beautiful young man who had helped bathe her last night, before she had blacked out from exhaustion. His hair was light brown and cut short. Toshia could see his muscular back and cute ass. He kept licking at her clit, and a shiver ran through her. Toshia decided that she wouldn't protest for another few minutes. Lying back again, she squeezed her tits tighter and let the sensations fill her. Soon a shuddering orgasm racked her body and left her grinning up at the ceiling.The young man took his mouth from her, and climbed up to look down at her. His face was wet with her juices. She laughed and reached up to take his face in her hands. She sat up enough to kiss him on the mouth, playfully licking some of her wetness from his face.“That was wonderful,” she said, “now lie down and let me return the favor.”The young man promptly did as he was told, and Toshia quickly got up into position so she could lean on his belly. She took his cock in her hand and sucked the head of it. It wasn't as big a cock as the Lord's, so she was able to get more of it into her mouth. Toshia thought it was about the size of Don's, and for some reason this made her happy. She thought this might be good practice for later. She liked the feeling of it sliding over her lips and against her tongue. As she worked her mouth up and down on him, she moved her hand up and down on the base of the shaft. She tried to see how far she could get it down her throat, but that didn't work too well at first. She went back to sucking on just the head, and then decided to try again. Other women did it, so she should be able to do it. The angle was good here, and she had control over everything, so she gave it another shot. Deliberately relaxing, she slid down on the shaft. She felt her throat closing around the head, and paused. She breathed through her nose and relaxed. Down a bit further, pause, and a bit further. Soon she found that her hand was caressing the young man's balls, and her lips were around the base of his cock. She squeezed his balls a little and swallowed, which was a very strange sensation; but not an unpleasant one. She slowly pulled back, sucked on the head some more while stroking his cock vigorously. The shaft was now very wet with her saliva, and her hand moved easily up and down on him even though she was holding him very tightly. She went back down, taking him into her throat much easier, pausing only once on the way. The next time she went all the way down in one steady motion.I wish I could see myself, she thought to herself, and then, I wish Don could see me!She backed up off the shaft, and went back to sucking mostly just the head and stroking the shaft intently, almost furiously. Finally, this was too much to resist, and the cock in her fist and mouth erupted with a jet of hot, delicious cum. Toshia swallowed and swallowed again, slowly pumping the cock with her hand and sucking greedily. When she was sure she'd gotten as much as the young man had to give, she reluctantly took her mouth off him, gave the head a parting kiss, and lowered the cock to his taut belly.Toshia sat up on her haunches and looked down at the blissful young man. “Good morning, I'm Toshia.”“Hello, milady,” the young man said, “I'm Jason, the Lord's acolyte.”“Very nice to meet you, Jason,” Toshia grinned. “You sure know how to wake a lady with style.”“Thank you, milady.”“So, where is his Lordship?”“He is attending to his morning duties,” Jason said, sitting up. “He left me to wake you pleasurably, and to escort you back to the ballroom.”“Well, so far so good,” she said. “Where's my dress?”“Your clothes have been taken to the laundry, milady,” Jason said. “You may get more from the wardrobe if you like.”“No, that's alright,” Toshia said as she got up off the bed. “I'm kind of getting used to running around here naked.”“Most people do,” Jason said. He got up and picked up and put on a dark blue robe, much like the one the Lord had worn the night before, only smaller.“So, Jason, while we're going to the ballroom, tell me about these ‘duties' of the Lord's, and explain to me just what an ‘acolyte' is.”Jason's answers to these questions were not much different from the ones Deidre would soon be giving Don. The Lord's morning routine did not include a trip to the garden, though, so she did not try to get Jason to lead her there. In any case, she knew Don was still in bed and not waiting for her in the ballroom.When they got to the ballroom, she said goodbye to Jason, and then paced around the ballroom. She was amused to see the number of garments just cast aside during the night. She looked in on the alcoves in curiosity. There were quite a few bodies there sleeping soundly. She saw a woman giving a man a blow job, and another couple quietly fucking in a corner. Then, in the alcove to the right of the big table where she was supposed to meet Don, she saw a group of women lying there with arms and legs intertwined, making out with each other and with their hands playing with whatever was in reach. Don better hurry, Toshia thought to herself. She looked back over her shoulder to see if Don had come into the ballroom, and while she was looking away, she heard a familiar voice say, “Hey, it's Toshia!”She turned around to see the three women in front of her looking at her. She grinned and said, “Hi, Suzy, Suki and Sandy.”“We've been waiting for you,” Suki said.“Well, not just waiting for you,” Suzy added. “How was your night with the Lord?”Toshia laughed, “It was fun.”Sandy sat up and asked, “Did his big cock break your cunt?”“Um, not that I can tell.”“Well, it sounds like you better bring it over here so we can check it out for you,” Suzy said.Toshia took one last look over her shoulder; still no Don; and then realized this was one of the designated alcoves anyway. With a grin and a shrug she climbed into the alcove. Hands pulled her into the pile of female flesh, and then mouths and hands were all over her. She had someone's tits in her face and, she was sure, someone else's fingers between her legs, and then someone else's fingers between her ass cheeks, teasing her asshole. Then Suzy, asserted some measure of order, saying, “Hold on, girls, we have to check this poor woman's cunt.”“I was working on that,” Sandy said. Apparently it was her fingers inside Toshia at the moment.“Well, you've got to do it right,” Suzy said. “Lie down on your back, Toshia.”Laughing, Toshia rolled over onto her back, almost surprised to find that she didn't land on Suki in the process. She spread her legs to be checked out. Suzy sat up near Toshia's head and stroked her hair.“Okay,” Suzy said, “Since you're so eager, you go first, Sandy. Get down there and have a look.”Sandy happily crouched down between Toshia's legs. After just a moment, she said, “Well, it looks alright.”“Proceed to the next level,” Suzy commanded.Toshia felt Sandy's fingers stroking her labia, and then parting them. She sighed when she felt Sandy pushing two fingers up inside her. Those fingers moved in and out and stroked the insides of her cunt. Toshia writhed a little under the attention. While this was going on, Suki moved around to kneel down by Sandy so she could get a closer look.“Feels Okay, too,” Sandy reported.“It certainly does,” Toshia murmured.“Taste test,” Suzy ordered.Sandy took her fingers out of Toshia, only to replace them with her tongue. She slowly tongued every part of Toshia's cunt and labia that she could reach, and then sucked on her clit. Toshia shuddered.“Tastes very good,” Sandy said, “but I don't think I detect any of the Lord's cum.”Toshia laughed, “He didn't come there.”

The Manor: Gymnasium - Don & Tascha explore the gym, including the pool & hot tub. (ch. 11)By BradentonLarry. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. Don and Tascha came out of the ballroom into the foyer with the winding staircase.“OK, so the Player was supposed to help us find the garden, but, obviously he's not here,” Don said, thinking out loud.“Obviously,” Tascha smirked. “So we'll have to find it ourselves.”“Or try to until we stumble upon the Player again,” Don said, looking around. “OK, so the stairs go back up to where we started off, and that corridor leads to the Lord's and Lady's bedrooms. I didn't see any side passages along that way, did you?”“No; so back up the stairs or one of these other two corridors,” Tascha said. The foyer was basically a square, with the ballroom on one side, the Lord's and Lady's corridor on the opposite side, and a corridor on either of the other two sides. The circular staircase came down in the corner to the right of the ballroom entrance, from where they stood with the ballroom at their backs.“There might be secret passages, of course,” Don said, “but worrying about that seems likely to slow us down a lot.”“Right,” Tascha nodded. “If we can't find the garden, or the Player, by trying regular doors, we can always start looking for secret ones.”“OK, so the stairs stop here, so for now we're as low in the Manor as we can get. Anything wrong with us starting at the bottom and working our way up?”“It doesn't seem likely that the door to the garden would be on the top floor, so no.”“I don't suppose you've got a ball of magic string on you,” he smiled.“Nope,” she laughed. “We're on our own here, Theseus.”“Let's hope there's no minotaur. Come along, Ariadne.” Don started off toward the right corridor. They passed a big freight elevator on the right, which indicated that this floor was as far down as it went, and that it went as high as the fifth floor.“So, I found out that something happened to the previous Lord,” Tascha said, walking next to him. “This one doesn't know what, only that the Lady selected him to be the new one.”“Hum,” Don said. “And the Lady doesn't remember anything other than being here, and, apparently as an adult. I didn't think to ask her how she became the Lady, but Deidre said she wasn't in training to be her replacement.”“We do seem to be the only people around here who remember anything other than life in the Manor,” Tascha observed.“Maybe we should start making a point of asking people if they remember anything before they were here.”“Yeah, I can see you now, ‘Miss, before you suck my cock, would you mind answering a few questions?'”“That's exactly what I was thinking,” Don laughed. “Oh, look, there's a door.”The big door on the left had a sign on it that read, “LAUNDRY” and “Staff Only”. It was a swinging door, so Don gave it a shove. On the other side was an enormous room, even by the Manor standards they were becoming used to, with row upon row of large washing machines, dryers and, off to the left, dry cleaning equipment. Moving among the machines, doing a great deal of laundry, were men and women wearing gray overall uniforms. These workers did not look at the two naked people watching them, or, in fact, at anything other than what they were presently working on. They seemed to have no interest in what they were doing or anything else going on.“Not the garden,” Tascha decided.“Nope,” Don agreed. “Still, apparently the laundry doesn't exactly get done by magic.”The next door in the corridor, labeled “CLEANING SUPPLIES”, as well as the next, “LINEN ROOM”, was securely locked. At the very end of the corridor was the only door set into the right wall. This was labeled “GREENHOUSE” and “Staff Only”, and was another big swinging door. Don gave it a shove.“Well this is just ridiculous,” Tascha said.“That's putting it mildly.”This “greenhouse” was more like a rather large orchard, with sprawling gardens thrown in for good measure, all enclosed and covered over with huge panes of transparent glass or plastic. Don could see apple trees and orange trees closest to him.“Don't these require different climates?” Tascha asked.“Yeah, I think they do,” Don nodded. “We're going to have to circumnavigate this sucker, you know.”“'Circumnavigate,' Don? We're not sailing the high seas,” Tascha chided. “But yeah, I think we need to walk around this to make sure there aren't any exits we could try. Good thing this grass is soft.”Don agreed that it did actually feel good to be walking on the grass with his bare feet. As they worked counterclockwise around the vast greenhouse, they saw more of the apparently disinterested overalled workers moving among the trees, pruning and harvesting, and working in the assorted vegetable gardens. No one paid any attention to Tascha and Don.“You know if it weren't for the zombie work force, I'd feel like we were Adam and Eve in here,” Don mused.“A Biblical reference, Don?” she chuckled. “I'm shocked and appalled.”“I like to change things up now and then.”Somewhere around halfway in their circuit, Don said, “What about the fruit anyway?”“You mean how filling it is?”“Yeah,” Don said with a frown.“More magic?”“Well, what we're calling ‘magic' for now, anyway,” he nodded. “I mean, it's one thing for candles and mirror-walls, but I'm not too happy about eating magical fruit.”“Me either, but what else are we going to do?” Tascha asked. “It's got to be the high fruit diet that's making all the men's cum taste so sweet.”“Think you've had a large enough sample to make that generalization?” Don asked with a raised eyebrow.“I'm working on it,” she laughed.“I'm quite happy to help out with your research any way I can.”“Oh, but I've sampled yours now. I need to find other subjects.”Don laughed, “Well, I can tell you this. Way back when, there was this girl I knew who had the sweetest tasting pussy. I used to say you could bottle that stuff and sell it as a beverage. Well, yours and every other pussy I've tasted here make hers taste bland in comparison. Mostly yours though.”“Flatterer,” Tascha laughed.After a bit, Don said, “Plus there's the water!”“Yes,” she nodded, “the water.”“That's not normal water,” Don said firmly.“No, it's certainly not.”“It's got to have some kind of aphrodisiac in it,” he mused.“That can't be all, though. It seems to energize me.”“And like the fruit, we only need a little of it to keep going,” observed Don. “And, I don't know about you, but I should be going through a lot of fluid since I got here.”“No, me too,” she smiled, “though I have been supplementing the water from time to time.”“OK, you're going to have to stop talking like that if you want to keep looking for the garden,” Don laughed.“Aw, now you can't take a little teasing, eh?”“Yeah, well, now that I know it's not all teasing, it's more , distracting.”“Suck it up, big guy,” she laughed.Don shook his head, chuckling under his breath.Soon they had completed their long walk around the greenhouse, having found no sign of an exit. As they left, Don said, “Still, a nice place for a walk.”“Yeah,” Tascha agreed. “If we can't find the garden we should come back here for a picnic.”Naturally, enough, Don imagined a naked Tascha lounging on a blanket in the middle of that orchard. Sure, the workers would be a bit of a distraction, but he could work around that.They headed back to the foyer in front of the ballroom, and then proceeded into the opposite corridor. Passing another, smaller, elevator on the left, the first doorway they came to, on the right side of the corridor, was a double pair of swinging doors that opened into a rather large lounge with subdued lighting. Against the right wall, there was a bar, with a flowing water fountain and several bowls of the magical fruit. The rest of the open area consisted of rising levels, each of which was arranged with comfortable chairs, couches, loveseats and low, sturdy tables. The uppermost level had six pool tables spaced out around it. There was actually a group of four naked people, evenly split between men and women, playing pool at one table, while on the next a woman was sprawling on her back and a man knelt at her pussy, orally servicing her. There were several groups of people engaged in various activities scattered about the lounge – here a 69, there a woman bouncing up and down on a man's lap, and there an intense three-way fondle-fest. There was, fittingly enough, lounge music playing.Don noticed that Tascha was watching the people having sex, particularly the couple on the upper level. With a mischievous smile, he asked, “Want to play a game? We could make things interesting.”Tascha laughed a bit, but seemed to seriously consider the suggestion. She shook her head and said, “Maybe later.”The next set of doors they came to was labeled, in big, fluorescent letters, “DISCO”, but these doors were locked. Then came the “THEATRE”, which, they were not surprised to find, was a huge auditorium, with nice soft chairs, and a good-sized stage with a white scrim across it so that, Don guessed, movies could be shown. Moving down one of the aisles far enough to look back and up not only confirmed his guess that the theater was equipped with a projection room, but also showed them that a few people were, again unsurprisingly, using the comfortable seats for sexual liaisons.“They must have movie nights,” Don said as they went back toward the corridor.“Probably just porn, though.”“What? No movie theater fantasies, Tascha?”“What do you mean?”“You know, having sex in a darkened movie theater. I understand lots of women, and not a few men, have them. Having sex in the dark, but where people can see them, sometimes letting anonymous people join in. Some people find that hot.”“I never thought about it before,” she shrugged. Then she smiled, “But I will now. Thanks.”At the end of the corridor was an open area; to either side, climbing upward away from the end of the corridor, were staircases; and in the wall facing back down the corridor was a pair of doors labeled “GYMNASIUM & POOL”. They stepped through these doors to see a cavernous room. There was a clear, carpeted plateau, or shelf, that ran from the door straight ahead to the far end of the chamber.On the left side of this platform, steps ran down to a large area in the center of which was a big swimming pool. The entire area around the pool was a kind of tidy garden, with benches, and piles of towels. At the far end of the pool was a waterfall that fell from near the high ceiling down over a series of stony ledges into the pool. To the left of this waterfall, in the far corner of the pool, up a set of steps leading up from the main pool was a rather large hot tub. There were three people who were swimming laps in the main pool, a couple apparently just talking in the near corner, and several people doing who-knew-what in the hot tub. On one of the benches off the pool deck proper, a woman leaned back while another knelt between her legs.On the right of their platform, up several tiers of steps, were two areas, closest to them was a state of the art gym set up, complete with weight machines, treadmills and stationary bikes. They climbed up the steps to get a better look, for now ignoring two men working out together with the free weights, the mixed set of people working on the treadmills and bikes, and the woman on her back on the one weight bench with a man between her legs fucking her vigorously. On the right wall of this area, was a neatly organized set of compartments that held various sizes of jockstraps, sports bras, slip on running and martial arts shoes, and assorted protective gear. Two nearby laundry bins collected soiled garments.To the left, or moving counterclockwise around the big chamber, was an open area with a padded mat covering the floor. Mirrors covered most of the two walls, except where a set of racks held a prodigious assortment of martial arts weapons and gear. No one was currently using this area.Then, at the end of the central aisle, directly opposite the doors they'd entered through, was a large communal shower room, complete with the now-expected generic toiletries and stacks of towels.“Quite impressive,” Tascha nodded.“Indeed,” Don smiled. “Are you sure we didn't win a lottery for a trip to the best, weirdest sex resort in the world?”“I'm sure I didn't buy a ticket in that lottery, though I'm sure you would have,” said Tascha with a wink. “Anyway, I'm pretty sure there's no place like this in the world we come from.”“You think we're in another world?”Tascha shrugged. “We're sure not in Kansas anymore. Feel like a swim?”Don looked around, then said, “Not just yet. You go ahead and I'll catch up to you in a bit.”Tascha took a step toward the pool, then spun around, came back to him and gave him a quick kiss. Then she sprang off down the steps for the pool.A bit bemused, Don headed back over to the equipment area, and quickly got what he was looking for. Wearing a black jockstrap and a pair of martial arts shoes, Don went back to the open area. After spending several minutes stretching, he began to work through some kung fu forms. It had been some time since he'd been able to work in anything like this open space, and it felt very good to work on his forms freely. After his open hand forms, he went to the equipment rack and selected a good staff, and then after that form, he returned that and got a Chinese saber. Having warmed up now, he was able to concentrate on these sword forms, his favorite. The fact that there were other people in the room, some of whom were having sex, faded away from his attention. As a result, when he finished his third sword form, it came as a bit of a surprise when someone asked, “Feel like sparring?”Don turned to see a very cute and obviously fit young black woman standing there watching him. She was several inches shorter than him, with a nice hourglass body, firm legs and full tits. Her hair was straight and black with gold highlights, and long enough to hang down halfway over her breasts. She was wearing an olive green sports bra, a pair of sparring gloves, a pair of the martial arts shoes and nothing else. She had an open faced headgear tucked her arm, and another in her hands, as well as a pair of sparring gloves.Don considered for a moment, and said, “Sure. Let me put this away.”She followed him over to the rack, and handed him the headgear first, saying, “I'm Shelonda.”“Nice to meet you Shelonda,” he smiled. “I'm Don.”She passed him the gloves, which he slipped on. She then led him out to the middle of the area.“How serious are we going to be?” Don asked.“Well, we'll see how the sparring goes,” Shelonda smiled.“Oh, I like that!” Don laughed. “How about no groin strikes, though?”“Neither of us have protection, so OK,” she agreed, “though accidents do happen.”“Let's try to avoid them, shall we?” Don began to move around Shelonda on the balls of his feet.He was about to move in, when she danced in and sent a roundhouse at his side. Don blocked this easily with one hand and pushed her off with the other. Then, Don brought his left knee up high and snapped his right leg around with a jumping roundhouse that she just barely ducked under. Don landed and skipped in to follow as she scrambled back a bit. He threw out a fast, light jab that caught her square on the forehead. Shelonda shook her head a little and danced back away from him. Don stalked after her, ready to get in close enough to catch her with a combination. She apparently thought he was a bit too close, though. Her left knee came up to her chest and her foot shot out, hitting him with a heel-thrusting kick to the gut.Don stumbled back a bit, with the air knocked out of him. Shelonda pressed her advantage, throwing a fast combination of kicks at him followed by two jabs and a hook at his head. Don had to work hard and fast, but he managed to block each attack. Tossing his right hand up and out to block the hook punch, he stepped through and jabbed hard with his left fist, catching Shelonda on the forehead again but harder than the last time. It was her turn to stumble back, and Don gave her a moment to collect herself.When she started back at him again, Don tried his jumping roundhouse kick again, which she blocked, moving to his left. She stepped in and punched him, rather hard, in the belly with her right fist. Don grunted, but only returned the favor. Shelonda's left arm was then arching down on a collision course with Don's head. He tried to bring his right arm up to block the blow, but it was slowed down by running into Shelonda's left breast. The punch connected, and Don's head was turned sharply to the left. Whether by quick thinking or by reflex from years of training, Don went with the motion, turning to the left. While his upper body was turning, his right foot crossed over in front of his left. As his torso twisted around, his left arm came up as if to guard his head, only to snap out at the last moment to catch the left side of Shelonda's headgear with a backfist blow. At the same time, his left leg hooked around her left leg and pulled it toward him. Unable to back away, she was unable to avoid the hook punch that followed the backfist, and she reeled to the side.Shelonda was obliged to turn to the right, first freeing her leg from Don and then planting it on the opposite side, away from him. This done, she was able to lash out with her right leg, side kicking straight out and connecting with Don's hip, shoving him back away.They backed off and circled, eyeing each other warily. Both of them were smiling. Abruptly Shelonda charged, taking a couple of steps and then launching a flying side kick at him. A flashy but not very practical move. She was kicking with her right leg, so Don turned to the left and stepped out of the way. Shelonda missed him and came down just past him, but Don was ready. He slipped his hand up under her left arm, and around to get hold of the back of her neck, while simultaneously getting his right arm between her thighs. His right foot was crossed in front of her left shin. Stepping forward while lifting up with his right arm and pushing down and forward with his left hand, Don threw Shelonda sprawling on the mat. Before she could get away, he swatted her bare, perfectly tight brown ass.Instead of rolling over or scrambling away, Shelonda said, “Oh!” and wiggled her butt. Laughing, Don smacked her ass again. She pushed her butt up in the air, so Don smacked it a third time. She sighed, and then pulled her head gear off. Don did the same, and pulled off his right glove. He ran his now bare hand over Shelonda's smooth and very firm butt, before smacking it yet again. Then he reached down to run his hand over her bare and dewy lips. She pushed herself back at him, like a cat stretching. He moved his fingers between her lips and probed her pussy with his fingers, and then found her clit and stroked it.She tossed her hair to the side and looked back over her shoulder at him, saying with a broad smile, “To the victor go the spoils.”Don grinned back at her and thought about this for a long moment, while his fingers continued to stroke her. Finally he said, “OK, but come with me to the pool. The victor wants to share the spoils.”“Oh, fun!” Shelonda exclaimed and quickly got up. They dropped off their soiled sparring gear, and stripped off their sweaty garments, and then headed for the pool.Don spotted Tascha over on the steps leading up to the hot tub, so he dove into the pool and swam across to her, most of the way underwater. Coming to the surface, he saw that Tascha was sitting with one arm resting on the top step, or the rim of the hot tub, watching two couples playing. As he and Shelonda swam up, she looked at him and said, “Oh, I see what's been taking you so long.” “Well, sort of,” Don said as he got to the steps and sat on one several steps lower than the one Tascha sat on. “Tascha this is Shelonda; Shelonda, Tascha. She's my spoils,” he offered as explanation.“Spoils?”“Well, you missed us fighting over there. I kicked her butt.”“And spanked it!” Shelonda said with an obviously play pout.“You brute!” Tascha laughed.“Yes, well, I won, so she says I get the spoils, so I thought we'd come join you so you could enjoy some 'spoils'.”Tascha looked over Shelonda, who was now standing on the second step up, her very fit and curvy body with its flawless brown skin glistening with water. “She's a cutie, alright,” Tascha decided. “Did you really beat up on her, Don?”“Believe me, it was a fair fight!” Don protested.“Uh huh,” Tascha said. “Come up here and give me a kiss, Shelonda. Did he tell you he was a black belt?”“No, but he didn't hurt me much,” Shelonda smiled as she came up the steps to give Tascha a long and very affectionate kiss.Tascha turned away from the hot tub to run her hands over Shelonda's body. Don watched the two beautiful women kissing with a happy smile on his face. He noticed that one of the couples in the hot tub got up and headed for the showers. Deciding to move his little party to warmer water, he started up the steps, taking hold of Shelonda's upper arm along the way. Shelonda and then Tascha followed him up and over into the steaming water.Soon the three of them were against the far side of the tub, which was big enough that there were at least two arm-lengths between them and the couple that was still playing there. Tascha and Shelonda were mostly kissing each other, and taking turns kissing, licking and sucking on the other's tits, though Don was getting to kiss each girl when she was having her tits attended to. Hands were busy under the water, and everyone had at least one hand on his or her privates at all times. After quite a bit of this, Shelonda suggested that Tascha sit up on the edge of the tub. Tascha happily complied, and soon was leaning back while the other woman went down on her.Don remembered the scene he and Tascha had seen in the secret passage that had seemed to turn her on so much, so he got out into the middle of the tub and coaxed Shelonda to stand up in the water, bent over at the waist. He got behind her, and gently, but firmly, pushed his thick cock up inside her ready pussy. He saw Tascha watching him and smiled at her. Then he began to fuck in and out of Shelonda, pushing her into Tascha with each thrust. The sound of the nearby waterfall drowned out any noises the women were making, but Tascha certainly seemed to be enjoying herself, and Shelonda was shoving back into him each time he drove into her. Holding onto the athletic girl's narrow waist, Don steadily slid in and out of the tight sheath of her pussy. He watched Tascha holding Shelonda's head to her pussy, and then heard her cry out as she came. Don smiled, thinking he had helped with that orgasm.Tascha pushed Shelonda away enough that she could slip back into the hot tub. She held Shelonda's head in her hands and kissed her, and then Don could tell she was saying something in the young woman's ear. Shelonda nodded and reached back to push him away. Once he was out, she turned to him and said, “Sit up on the edge of the tub.”Don quickly did as he was told. Tascha winked at him, and then Shelonda got up out of the tub and straddled him, her feet on the edge of the tub. Don looked up to admire her perfect ass, which she then lowered, squatting over him. She took his hard cock and put the head between her lips. Then she sank down on him. Don reached up to hold her waist and help support her, and she leaned back some, letting her feet slip into the pool and her weight rest on Don. Then Don felt Tascha's fingers brushing against the base of his cock and his balls, only to be followed by the occasional sensation of her tongue touching him as she began to lick at Shelonda's clit.The woman on top of Don reached back to lean on his chest, which enabled Don to let go of her waist and reach around to get his hands on her beautiful tits. He squeezed them and then began to pinch and pull on her nipples. Soon Shelonda was writhing on top of him, coming hard and long. When she stopped shuddering, Tascha stood up and kissed her again. Then Tascha climbed up onto the deck next to Don and said, “I like your friend.”Shelonda had gotten off Don and was now kneeling on the bench in the tub, facing them and stroking his cock. Don smiled at Tascha, and said, “She seems to like you too. Did you notice that the couple over there has been watching us?”“Oh really?” Tascha looked over her shoulder at them, then back to Don, “They're kind of cute, want me to invite them to join in?”“It's either that or back to searching for the garden,” Don said. Shelonda was now sucking on his cock.“Hum, right,” Tascha said thoughtfully. “Well, we're here, might as well make the most of it.” She twisted around and beckoned to the couple.“Well, if you feel that way, we could just get everyone here over to the mat area, and make a real orgy of it,” Don laughed.“Maybe later,” she said and gave him a quick kiss. Then she was sitting up to greet the new couple and to make introductions.Heather was a gorgeous woman with light brown skin, a cheerful smile, and long black hair hanging down her back, as well as a beautiful body with another world-class butt. Steve was a taut runner type with very light blue eyes and light hair cut very close to his scalp.Tascha slipped into the water with Heather, where the two of them got acquainted. Shelonda got up on top of Don again, but this time facing him, and Steve stood up over Don so that she could suck on his cock. As she did this, Shelonda rode back and forth on Don's body, while he reached up to fondle her tits and tease her nipples.Don could see Heather sitting up on the edge of the tub then, and knew Tascha was between her legs, but before too long the two women had made their way up onto the deck next to Don and the others where they moved into a 69, with Heather on top. Steve pulled out of Shelonda's mouth and went over to kneel behind Heather's upturned ass. While Tascha was licking at Heather's clit, Steve pushed his cock into Heather's pussy.On top of Don, Shelonda was working herself up and down on his cock as well as back and forth on his body. It wasn't long before he felt her pussy squeezing and pulling at his cock, and then she was shuddering with another orgasm. She fell forward on him, kissing his chest, and then lying there on top of him as they watched the other three playing.Steve was really plowing away into Heather, who had her face firmly lodged between Tascha's thighs. Meanwhile, Tascha was there licking and sucking at Heather while Steve's cock and balls moved right over her face. Don heard first Heather and then Tascha coming loudly over the noise of the waterfall. Then Steve was coming up inside Heather.As Don watched this with Shelonda, he got an idea and got her to let him up. When Steve pulled out of Heather, letting a long stream of cum and Heather-juice run down to Tascha's waiting mouth, Don took his place, giving a wink to Tascha, and then promptly pushing his cock into Heather's messy pussy. Heather pushed back at Don, and then lowered her face back down to Tascha's pussy and clit.Steve went over to Shelonda, who greeted him with a mouth that was eager to get him ready for more action.Don could feel Tascha licking at Heather as he fucked in and out of Heather's exceptionally hot and tight pussy. He held on to Heather's waist and fucked hard and deep into her. This time, it was Don's orgasm that set things off. He felt his balls tighten, his cock swell, and then his cum shot out of him in a long hot stream. He held still in Heather, trembling, for a long moment, and then slowly pulled out of her.As soon as Don was clear, Tascha pulled Heather down further, so she could get her mouth on the woman's cum-filled pussy. In another moment, Tascha was shaking and moaning while she kept licking and sucking cum out of Heather, all of which sent Heather over the edge again.Don sat back on his haunches, inordinately pleased with himself. Tascha and Heather were lying in a pile, with Tascha still sucking cum, and Steve had Shelonda on her back with his cock sliding in and out of her pussy. Finally, Tascha let Heather go, and the two women disentangled themselves. Heather grinned at Don, who waved back at her, and then crawled over to make out with Shelonda while Steve kept at it.Don leaned down over Tascha and said, “If you're quite through, perhaps we should hit the showers and get back to work.”To be continued.By BradentonLarry for Literotica
The Manor: Gymnasium - Don & Tascha explore the gym, including the pool & hot tub. (ch. 11)By BradentonLarry. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. Don and Tascha came out of the ballroom into the foyer with the winding staircase.“OK, so the Player was supposed to help us find the garden, but, obviously he's not here,” Don said, thinking out loud.“Obviously,” Tascha smirked. “So we'll have to find it ourselves.”“Or try to until we stumble upon the Player again,” Don said, looking around. “OK, so the stairs go back up to where we started off, and that corridor leads to the Lord's and Lady's bedrooms. I didn't see any side passages along that way, did you?”“No; so back up the stairs or one of these other two corridors,” Tascha said. The foyer was basically a square, with the ballroom on one side, the Lord's and Lady's corridor on the opposite side, and a corridor on either of the other two sides. The circular staircase came down in the corner to the right of the ballroom entrance, from where they stood with the ballroom at their backs.“There might be secret passages, of course,” Don said, “but worrying about that seems likely to slow us down a lot.”“Right,” Tascha nodded. “If we can't find the garden, or the Player, by trying regular doors, we can always start looking for secret ones.”“OK, so the stairs stop here, so for now we're as low in the Manor as we can get. Anything wrong with us starting at the bottom and working our way up?”“It doesn't seem likely that the door to the garden would be on the top floor, so no.”“I don't suppose you've got a ball of magic string on you,” he smiled.“Nope,” she laughed. “We're on our own here, Theseus.”“Let's hope there's no minotaur. Come along, Ariadne.” Don started off toward the right corridor. They passed a big freight elevator on the right, which indicated that this floor was as far down as it went, and that it went as high as the fifth floor.“So, I found out that something happened to the previous Lord,” Tascha said, walking next to him. “This one doesn't know what, only that the Lady selected him to be the new one.”“Hum,” Don said. “And the Lady doesn't remember anything other than being here, and, apparently as an adult. I didn't think to ask her how she became the Lady, but Deidre said she wasn't in training to be her replacement.”“We do seem to be the only people around here who remember anything other than life in the Manor,” Tascha observed.“Maybe we should start making a point of asking people if they remember anything before they were here.”“Yeah, I can see you now, ‘Miss, before you suck my cock, would you mind answering a few questions?'”“That's exactly what I was thinking,” Don laughed. “Oh, look, there's a door.”The big door on the left had a sign on it that read, “LAUNDRY” and “Staff Only”. It was a swinging door, so Don gave it a shove. On the other side was an enormous room, even by the Manor standards they were becoming used to, with row upon row of large washing machines, dryers and, off to the left, dry cleaning equipment. Moving among the machines, doing a great deal of laundry, were men and women wearing gray overall uniforms. These workers did not look at the two naked people watching them, or, in fact, at anything other than what they were presently working on. They seemed to have no interest in what they were doing or anything else going on.“Not the garden,” Tascha decided.“Nope,” Don agreed. “Still, apparently the laundry doesn't exactly get done by magic.”The next door in the corridor, labeled “CLEANING SUPPLIES”, as well as the next, “LINEN ROOM”, was securely locked. At the very end of the corridor was the only door set into the right wall. This was labeled “GREENHOUSE” and “Staff Only”, and was another big swinging door. Don gave it a shove.“Well this is just ridiculous,” Tascha said.“That's putting it mildly.”This “greenhouse” was more like a rather large orchard, with sprawling gardens thrown in for good measure, all enclosed and covered over with huge panes of transparent glass or plastic. Don could see apple trees and orange trees closest to him.“Don't these require different climates?” Tascha asked.“Yeah, I think they do,” Don nodded. “We're going to have to circumnavigate this sucker, you know.”“'Circumnavigate,' Don? We're not sailing the high seas,” Tascha chided. “But yeah, I think we need to walk around this to make sure there aren't any exits we could try. Good thing this grass is soft.”Don agreed that it did actually feel good to be walking on the grass with his bare feet. As they worked counterclockwise around the vast greenhouse, they saw more of the apparently disinterested overalled workers moving among the trees, pruning and harvesting, and working in the assorted vegetable gardens. No one paid any attention to Tascha and Don.“You know if it weren't for the zombie work force, I'd feel like we were Adam and Eve in here,” Don mused.“A Biblical reference, Don?” she chuckled. “I'm shocked and appalled.”“I like to change things up now and then.”Somewhere around halfway in their circuit, Don said, “What about the fruit anyway?”“You mean how filling it is?”“Yeah,” Don said with a frown.“More magic?”“Well, what we're calling ‘magic' for now, anyway,” he nodded. “I mean, it's one thing for candles and mirror-walls, but I'm not too happy about eating magical fruit.”“Me either, but what else are we going to do?” Tascha asked. “It's got to be the high fruit diet that's making all the men's cum taste so sweet.”“Think you've had a large enough sample to make that generalization?” Don asked with a raised eyebrow.“I'm working on it,” she laughed.“I'm quite happy to help out with your research any way I can.”“Oh, but I've sampled yours now. I need to find other subjects.”Don laughed, “Well, I can tell you this. Way back when, there was this girl I knew who had the sweetest tasting pussy. I used to say you could bottle that stuff and sell it as a beverage. Well, yours and every other pussy I've tasted here make hers taste bland in comparison. Mostly yours though.”“Flatterer,” Tascha laughed.After a bit, Don said, “Plus there's the water!”“Yes,” she nodded, “the water.”“That's not normal water,” Don said firmly.“No, it's certainly not.”“It's got to have some kind of aphrodisiac in it,” he mused.“That can't be all, though. It seems to energize me.”“And like the fruit, we only need a little of it to keep going,” observed Don. “And, I don't know about you, but I should be going through a lot of fluid since I got here.”“No, me too,” she smiled, “though I have been supplementing the water from time to time.”“OK, you're going to have to stop talking like that if you want to keep looking for the garden,” Don laughed.“Aw, now you can't take a little teasing, eh?”“Yeah, well, now that I know it's not all teasing, it's more , distracting.”“Suck it up, big guy,” she laughed.Don shook his head, chuckling under his breath.Soon they had completed their long walk around the greenhouse, having found no sign of an exit. As they left, Don said, “Still, a nice place for a walk.”“Yeah,” Tascha agreed. “If we can't find the garden we should come back here for a picnic.”Naturally, enough, Don imagined a naked Tascha lounging on a blanket in the middle of that orchard. Sure, the workers would be a bit of a distraction, but he could work around that.They headed back to the foyer in front of the ballroom, and then proceeded into the opposite corridor. Passing another, smaller, elevator on the left, the first doorway they came to, on the right side of the corridor, was a double pair of swinging doors that opened into a rather large lounge with subdued lighting. Against the right wall, there was a bar, with a flowing water fountain and several bowls of the magical fruit. The rest of the open area consisted of rising levels, each of which was arranged with comfortable chairs, couches, loveseats and low, sturdy tables. The uppermost level had six pool tables spaced out around it. There was actually a group of four naked people, evenly split between men and women, playing pool at one table, while on the next a woman was sprawling on her back and a man knelt at her pussy, orally servicing her. There were several groups of people engaged in various activities scattered about the lounge – here a 69, there a woman bouncing up and down on a man's lap, and there an intense three-way fondle-fest. There was, fittingly enough, lounge music playing.Don noticed that Tascha was watching the people having sex, particularly the couple on the upper level. With a mischievous smile, he asked, “Want to play a game? We could make things interesting.”Tascha laughed a bit, but seemed to seriously consider the suggestion. She shook her head and said, “Maybe later.”The next set of doors they came to was labeled, in big, fluorescent letters, “DISCO”, but these doors were locked. Then came the “THEATRE”, which, they were not surprised to find, was a huge auditorium, with nice soft chairs, and a good-sized stage with a white scrim across it so that, Don guessed, movies could be shown. Moving down one of the aisles far enough to look back and up not only confirmed his guess that the theater was equipped with a projection room, but also showed them that a few people were, again unsurprisingly, using the comfortable seats for sexual liaisons.“They must have movie nights,” Don said as they went back toward the corridor.“Probably just porn, though.”“What? No movie theater fantasies, Tascha?”“What do you mean?”“You know, having sex in a darkened movie theater. I understand lots of women, and not a few men, have them. Having sex in the dark, but where people can see them, sometimes letting anonymous people join in. Some people find that hot.”“I never thought about it before,” she shrugged. Then she smiled, “But I will now. Thanks.”At the end of the corridor was an open area; to either side, climbing upward away from the end of the corridor, were staircases; and in the wall facing back down the corridor was a pair of doors labeled “GYMNASIUM & POOL”. They stepped through these doors to see a cavernous room. There was a clear, carpeted plateau, or shelf, that ran from the door straight ahead to the far end of the chamber.On the left side of this platform, steps ran down to a large area in the center of which was a big swimming pool. The entire area around the pool was a kind of tidy garden, with benches, and piles of towels. At the far end of the pool was a waterfall that fell from near the high ceiling down over a series of stony ledges into the pool. To the left of this waterfall, in the far corner of the pool, up a set of steps leading up from the main pool was a rather large hot tub. There were three people who were swimming laps in the main pool, a couple apparently just talking in the near corner, and several people doing who-knew-what in the hot tub. On one of the benches off the pool deck proper, a woman leaned back while another knelt between her legs.On the right of their platform, up several tiers of steps, were two areas, closest to them was a state of the art gym set up, complete with weight machines, treadmills and stationary bikes. They climbed up the steps to get a better look, for now ignoring two men working out together with the free weights, the mixed set of people working on the treadmills and bikes, and the woman on her back on the one weight bench with a man between her legs fucking her vigorously. On the right wall of this area, was a neatly organized set of compartments that held various sizes of jockstraps, sports bras, slip on running and martial arts shoes, and assorted protective gear. Two nearby laundry bins collected soiled garments.To the left, or moving counterclockwise around the big chamber, was an open area with a padded mat covering the floor. Mirrors covered most of the two walls, except where a set of racks held a prodigious assortment of martial arts weapons and gear. No one was currently using this area.Then, at the end of the central aisle, directly opposite the doors they'd entered through, was a large communal shower room, complete with the now-expected generic toiletries and stacks of towels.“Quite impressive,” Tascha nodded.“Indeed,” Don smiled. “Are you sure we didn't win a lottery for a trip to the best, weirdest sex resort in the world?”“I'm sure I didn't buy a ticket in that lottery, though I'm sure you would have,” said Tascha with a wink. “Anyway, I'm pretty sure there's no place like this in the world we come from.”“You think we're in another world?”Tascha shrugged. “We're sure not in Kansas anymore. Feel like a swim?”Don looked around, then said, “Not just yet. You go ahead and I'll catch up to you in a bit.”Tascha took a step toward the pool, then spun around, came back to him and gave him a quick kiss. Then she sprang off down the steps for the pool.A bit bemused, Don headed back over to the equipment area, and quickly got what he was looking for. Wearing a black jockstrap and a pair of martial arts shoes, Don went back to the open area. After spending several minutes stretching, he began to work through some kung fu forms. It had been some time since he'd been able to work in anything like this open space, and it felt very good to work on his forms freely. After his open hand forms, he went to the equipment rack and selected a good staff, and then after that form, he returned that and got a Chinese saber. Having warmed up now, he was able to concentrate on these sword forms, his favorite. The fact that there were other people in the room, some of whom were having sex, faded away from his attention. As a result, when he finished his third sword form, it came as a bit of a surprise when someone asked, “Feel like sparring?”Don turned to see a very cute and obviously fit young black woman standing there watching him. She was several inches shorter than him, with a nice hourglass body, firm legs and full tits. Her hair was straight and black with gold highlights, and long enough to hang down halfway over her breasts. She was wearing an olive green sports bra, a pair of sparring gloves, a pair of the martial arts shoes and nothing else. She had an open faced headgear tucked her arm, and another in her hands, as well as a pair of sparring gloves.Don considered for a moment, and said, “Sure. Let me put this away.”She followed him over to the rack, and handed him the headgear first, saying, “I'm Shelonda.”“Nice to meet you Shelonda,” he smiled. “I'm Don.”She passed him the gloves, which he slipped on. She then led him out to the middle of the area.“How serious are we going to be?” Don asked.“Well, we'll see how the sparring goes,” Shelonda smiled.“Oh, I like that!” Don laughed. “How about no groin strikes, though?”“Neither of us have protection, so OK,” she agreed, “though accidents do happen.”“Let's try to avoid them, shall we?” Don began to move around Shelonda on the balls of his feet.He was about to move in, when she danced in and sent a roundhouse at his side. Don blocked this easily with one hand and pushed her off with the other. Then, Don brought his left knee up high and snapped his right leg around with a jumping roundhouse that she just barely ducked under. Don landed and skipped in to follow as she scrambled back a bit. He threw out a fast, light jab that caught her square on the forehead. Shelonda shook her head a little and danced back away from him. Don stalked after her, ready to get in close enough to catch her with a combination. She apparently thought he was a bit too close, though. Her left knee came up to her chest and her foot shot out, hitting him with a heel-thrusting kick to the gut.Don stumbled back a bit, with the air knocked out of him. Shelonda pressed her advantage, throwing a fast combination of kicks at him followed by two jabs and a hook at his head. Don had to work hard and fast, but he managed to block each attack. Tossing his right hand up and out to block the hook punch, he stepped through and jabbed hard with his left fist, catching Shelonda on the forehead again but harder than the last time. It was her turn to stumble back, and Don gave her a moment to collect herself.When she started back at him again, Don tried his jumping roundhouse kick again, which she blocked, moving to his left. She stepped in and punched him, rather hard, in the belly with her right fist. Don grunted, but only returned the favor. Shelonda's left arm was then arching down on a collision course with Don's head. He tried to bring his right arm up to block the blow, but it was slowed down by running into Shelonda's left breast. The punch connected, and Don's head was turned sharply to the left. Whether by quick thinking or by reflex from years of training, Don went with the motion, turning to the left. While his upper body was turning, his right foot crossed over in front of his left. As his torso twisted around, his left arm came up as if to guard his head, only to snap out at the last moment to catch the left side of Shelonda's headgear with a backfist blow. At the same time, his left leg hooked around her left leg and pulled it toward him. Unable to back away, she was unable to avoid the hook punch that followed the backfist, and she reeled to the side.Shelonda was obliged to turn to the right, first freeing her leg from Don and then planting it on the opposite side, away from him. This done, she was able to lash out with her right leg, side kicking straight out and connecting with Don's hip, shoving him back away.They backed off and circled, eyeing each other warily. Both of them were smiling. Abruptly Shelonda charged, taking a couple of steps and then launching a flying side kick at him. A flashy but not very practical move. She was kicking with her right leg, so Don turned to the left and stepped out of the way. Shelonda missed him and came down just past him, but Don was ready. He slipped his hand up under her left arm, and around to get hold of the back of her neck, while simultaneously getting his right arm between her thighs. His right foot was crossed in front of her left shin. Stepping forward while lifting up with his right arm and pushing down and forward with his left hand, Don threw Shelonda sprawling on the mat. Before she could get away, he swatted her bare, perfectly tight brown ass.Instead of rolling over or scrambling away, Shelonda said, “Oh!” and wiggled her butt. Laughing, Don smacked her ass again. She pushed her butt up in the air, so Don smacked it a third time. She sighed, and then pulled her head gear off. Don did the same, and pulled off his right glove. He ran his now bare hand over Shelonda's smooth and very firm butt, before smacking it yet again. Then he reached down to run his hand over her bare and dewy lips. She pushed herself back at him, like a cat stretching. He moved his fingers between her lips and probed her pussy with his fingers, and then found her clit and stroked it.She tossed her hair to the side and looked back over her shoulder at him, saying with a broad smile, “To the victor go the spoils.”Don grinned back at her and thought about this for a long moment, while his fingers continued to stroke her. Finally he said, “OK, but come with me to the pool. The victor wants to share the spoils.”“Oh, fun!” Shelonda exclaimed and quickly got up. They dropped off their soiled sparring gear, and stripped off their sweaty garments, and then headed for the pool.Don spotted Tascha over on the steps leading up to the hot tub, so he dove into the pool and swam across to her, most of the way underwater. Coming to the surface, he saw that Tascha was sitting with one arm resting on the top step, or the rim of the hot tub, watching two couples playing. As he and Shelonda swam up, she looked at him and said, “Oh, I see what's been taking you so long.” “Well, sort of,” Don said as he got to the steps and sat on one several steps lower than the one Tascha sat on. “Tascha this is Shelonda; Shelonda, Tascha. She's my spoils,” he offered as explanation.“Spoils?”“Well, you missed us fighting over there. I kicked her butt.”“And spanked it!” Shelonda said with an obviously play pout.“You brute!” Tascha laughed.“Yes, well, I won, so she says I get the spoils, so I thought we'd come join you so you could enjoy some 'spoils'.”Tascha looked over Shelonda, who was now standing on the second step up, her very fit and curvy body with its flawless brown skin glistening with water. “She's a cutie, alright,” Tascha decided. “Did you really beat up on her, Don?”“Believe me, it was a fair fight!” Don protested.“Uh huh,” Tascha said. “Come up here and give me a kiss, Shelonda. Did he tell you he was a black belt?”“No, but he didn't hurt me much,” Shelonda smiled as she came up the steps to give Tascha a long and very affectionate kiss.Tascha turned away from the hot tub to run her hands over Shelonda's body. Don watched the two beautiful women kissing with a happy smile on his face. He noticed that one of the couples in the hot tub got up and headed for the showers. Deciding to move his little party to warmer water, he started up the steps, taking hold of Shelonda's upper arm along the way. Shelonda and then Tascha followed him up and over into the steaming water.Soon the three of them were against the far side of the tub, which was big enough that there were at least two arm-lengths between them and the couple that was still playing there. Tascha and Shelonda were mostly kissing each other, and taking turns kissing, licking and sucking on the other's tits, though Don was getting to kiss each girl when she was having her tits attended to. Hands were busy under the water, and everyone had at least one hand on his or her privates at all times. After quite a bit of this, Shelonda suggested that Tascha sit up on the edge of the tub. Tascha happily complied, and soon was leaning back while the other woman went down on her.Don remembered the scene he and Tascha had seen in the secret passage that had seemed to turn her on so much, so he got out into the middle of the tub and coaxed Shelonda to stand up in the water, bent over at the waist. He got behind her, and gently, but firmly, pushed his thick cock up inside her ready pussy. He saw Tascha watching him and smiled at her. Then he began to fuck in and out of Shelonda, pushing her into Tascha with each thrust. The sound of the nearby waterfall drowned out any noises the women were making, but Tascha certainly seemed to be enjoying herself, and Shelonda was shoving back into him each time he drove into her. Holding onto the athletic girl's narrow waist, Don steadily slid in and out of the tight sheath of her pussy. He watched Tascha holding Shelonda's head to her pussy, and then heard her cry out as she came. Don smiled, thinking he had helped with that orgasm.Tascha pushed Shelonda away enough that she could slip back into the hot tub. She held Shelonda's head in her hands and kissed her, and then Don could tell she was saying something in the young woman's ear. Shelonda nodded and reached back to push him away. Once he was out, she turned to him and said, “Sit up on the edge of the tub.”Don quickly did as he was told. Tascha winked at him, and then Shelonda got up out of the tub and straddled him, her feet on the edge of the tub. Don looked up to admire her perfect ass, which she then lowered, squatting over him. She took his hard cock and put the head between her lips. Then she sank down on him. Don reached up to hold her waist and help support her, and she leaned back some, letting her feet slip into the pool and her weight rest on Don. Then Don felt Tascha's fingers brushing against the base of his cock and his balls, only to be followed by the occasional sensation of her tongue touching him as she began to lick at Shelonda's clit.The woman on top of Don reached back to lean on his chest, which enabled Don to let go of her waist and reach around to get his hands on her beautiful tits. He squeezed them and then began to pinch and pull on her nipples. Soon Shelonda was writhing on top of him, coming hard and long. When she stopped shuddering, Tascha stood up and kissed her again. Then Tascha climbed up onto the deck next to Don and said, “I like your friend.”Shelonda had gotten off Don and was now kneeling on the bench in the tub, facing them and stroking his cock. Don smiled at Tascha, and said, “She seems to like you too. Did you notice that the couple over there has been watching us?”“Oh really?” Tascha looked over her shoulder at them, then back to Don, “They're kind of cute, want me to invite them to join in?”“It's either that or back to searching for the garden,” Don said. Shelonda was now sucking on his cock.“Hum, right,” Tascha said thoughtfully. “Well, we're here, might as well make the most of it.” She twisted around and beckoned to the couple.“Well, if you feel that way, we could just get everyone here over to the mat area, and make a real orgy of it,” Don laughed.“Maybe later,” she said and gave him a quick kiss. Then she was sitting up to greet the new couple and to make introductions.Heather was a gorgeous woman with light brown skin, a cheerful smile, and long black hair hanging down her back, as well as a beautiful body with another world-class butt. Steve was a taut runner type with very light blue eyes and light hair cut very close to his scalp.Tascha slipped into the water with Heather, where the two of them got acquainted. Shelonda got up on top of Don again, but this time facing him, and Steve stood up over Don so that she could suck on his cock. As she did this, Shelonda rode back and forth on Don's body, while he reached up to fondle her tits and tease her nipples.Don could see Heather sitting up on the edge of the tub then, and knew Tascha was between her legs, but before too long the two women had made their way up onto the deck next to Don and the others where they moved into a 69, with Heather on top. Steve pulled out of Shelonda's mouth and went over to kneel behind Heather's upturned ass. While Tascha was licking at Heather's clit, Steve pushed his cock into Heather's pussy.On top of Don, Shelonda was working herself up and down on his cock as well as back and forth on his body. It wasn't long before he felt her pussy squeezing and pulling at his cock, and then she was shuddering with another orgasm. She fell forward on him, kissing his chest, and then lying there on top of him as they watched the other three playing.Steve was really plowing away into Heather, who had her face firmly lodged between Tascha's thighs. Meanwhile, Tascha was there licking and sucking at Heather while Steve's cock and balls moved right over her face. Don heard first Heather and then Tascha coming loudly over the noise of the waterfall. Then Steve was coming up inside Heather.As Don watched this with Shelonda, he got an idea and got her to let him up. When Steve pulled out of Heather, letting a long stream of cum and Heather-juice run down to Tascha's waiting mouth, Don took his place, giving a wink to Tascha, and then promptly pushing his cock into Heather's messy pussy. Heather pushed back at Don, and then lowered her face back down to Tascha's pussy and clit.Steve went over to Shelonda, who greeted him with a mouth that was eager to get him ready for more action.Don could feel Tascha licking at Heather as he fucked in and out of Heather's exceptionally hot and tight pussy. He held on to Heather's waist and fucked hard and deep into her. This time, it was Don's orgasm that set things off. He felt his balls tighten, his cock swell, and then his cum shot out of him in a long hot stream. He held still in Heather, trembling, for a long moment, and then slowly pulled out of her.As soon as Don was clear, Tascha pulled Heather down further, so she could get her mouth on the woman's cum-filled pussy. In another moment, Tascha was shaking and moaning while she kept licking and sucking cum out of Heather, all of which sent Heather over the edge again.Don sat back on his haunches, inordinately pleased with himself. Tascha and Heather were lying in a pile, with Tascha still sucking cum, and Steve had Shelonda on her back with his cock sliding in and out of her pussy. Finally, Tascha let Heather go, and the two women disentangled themselves. Heather grinned at Don, who waved back at her, and then crawled over to make out with Shelonda while Steve kept at it.Don leaned down over Tascha and said, “If you're quite through, perhaps we should hit the showers and get back to work.”To be continued.By BradentonLarry for Literotica

It's Thursday and that means it's time for the REALEST TALK on the Internet, REAL TALK with Jimmy Moore! Join Jimmy today as he welcomes Amy Bellinder as she pulls the curtain back on daily items that are affecting our health. “Health is the goal, but it's way more than just your diet.” - Amy Bellinder In this episode, Jimmy speaks with a keto carnivore coach named Amy Bellinder. As the mother of 9 kids, Amy (@carnivoresangel) stays very busy taking care of her household. But she's super-passionate about several topics, including eating keto for families, cholesterol, and eating meat for your mental health. But one specific subject gets her jazzed more than anything else–food dyes, household chemicals, and other toxins we expose ourselves to. Tune in to hear Jimmy and Amy take a tour through your house where these harmful chemicals and toxic products may lurk. Amy Bellinder on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/carnivoresangel
While it may seem obvious, keeping certain cleaning supplies where you use them most often can help you stay organized and even cut down on the time you'd spend scouring the house looking for the bathroom cleaner, for example, or walking one place to get something that you always use in another place. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jennifer-grove/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/jennifer-grove/support

Annie B. Jones, owner of The Bookshelf in Thomasville, GA and host of From the Front Porch, joins Carrie on The Localist this week to dive into how they are reacting to the pandemic, and how they're handling the upcoming holiday season. Annie was fortunate that The Bookshelf already had a strong online presence before the pandemic hit, but she describes how they completely pivoted to virtual events, and how those events have evolved based on logistics. Annie and Carrie talk about juggling different aspects of owning a business, showing up on social media in an authentic way, and how you really need to know your own limits (and those of your staff!). Annie then tells us all about the subscription boxes they offer, and the journey it took to figure out shipping and branding. Annie and Carrie wrap up with the value in over-communicating, the seasonal offerings from The Bookshelf, and how you can support The Bookshelf — even through audiobooks.
