Could she go through with it she kept thinking to herself? What had possessed her to suggest such a thing to Richard earlier? Despite her nervousness and uncertainty, she felt very horny as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. She had done as Richard had suggested and put on the sexy underwear he liked so much. It was the black lace set that pushed her breasts up to accentuate them, barely covering her nipples. The panties were the 'g string' ones that only just covered her pussy. Before pulling on the panties Mary had embarrassed herself by squatting in front of the mirror to look at her pussy! "What am I doing," she thought to herself, but she knew exactly what she was doing. She was fascinated to see what a good job Richard had done shaving her pussy earlier! She looked at her reflection in the mirror and saw how prominent her pussy looked without any hair to hide it. The only hair left was just above; the rest of her pussy was bare and smooth. She watched in the mirror as she reached down and touched herself, running her fingers lightly over her freshly shaved, baby smooth skin. As her fingers lightly brushed over her pussy she once more wondered to her self if she would be able to go through with this wild plan. Would she be able to let these men see her and then touch her? She knew that if she did go through with it she would feel terrible afterwards. Her wild side still convinced her though, that no matter what she felt like after, she wanted to experience this wild fantasy. She wanted to see and touch other cocks! She wanted to experience and feel the collective lust of these men for real. Mary could still not quite understand the fascination men had with seeing cherries. She had learned to accept that men, especially Richard and the men in the Stiff Club were greatly turned on by seeing her pussy. Knowing how it turned them on made her feel excited and horny as she was slowly learning to enjoy showing herself off. As her mind started to fill with horny thoughts she stood up and continued to dress. With all the underwear in place she looked at herself once more in the mirror before pulling on her skirt and shirt. She looked again, undecided as to if she should wear the skirt and shirt. After some more thought she changed her mind and, after removing them, put on Richard's large towelling bathrobe. She decided it felt very sexy to be completely covered by the bathrobe knowing that underneath she was wearing the sexy underwear. She finally added her make up and then sat down and waited for Richard. Richard was feeling equally as nervous and very uncertain as he walked back to his hotel room with the other men. He knew the idea turned him on in his fantasies but what would it be like for real? Earlier that evening he and Mary had been getting passionate as usual and talking about their many fantasies. They were soon talking about group sex again and Mary was telling Richard how liberated she had felt after her two experiences 'on line' with the stiff club. No one was more surprised than Mary remembering how she had enjoyed the experience of cyber sex with the group of men. They had talked about whether Mary would ever be bold and wild enough to try sex with a group of men for real. Each time they had discussed it the conclusion was the same; Mary thought she could never do it for real although she was sometimes really turned on by the idea. Richard also thought he could never watch her with a group of men in reality because he would be too jealous. Despite these thoughts, the subject kept returning and earlier that same evening, whilst in the bar of the hotel, Mary had shocked Richard by suggesting he recruit a group of men to bring back to the room. Once in the room Mary wanted Richard to help her be bold then see what would happen, if she still felt brave enough. They had been in the bar at a reception for the guests organised by the hotel manager. Most times when Richard was at the hotel he had received similar invitations but had never gone. As they were getting passionate earlier that evening Richard jokingly suggested they take up the invitation from the hotel manager and visit the bar to find some suitable men for Mary. Somehow they had both encouraged each other and before either of them had time to think of the consequences they were in the bar. As they arrived in the bar they were handed a complimentary drink. Richard remembered thinking how strong it tasted and knew that it would quickly go to Mary's head. The bar was full, mainly with smartly dressed businessmen. Richard and Mary found a table and sat down. Richard noticed a wild mischievous look in Mary's eyes as she looked around the bar at all of the men. Richard vaguely recognised some of them from previous visits and had also spoken to a few of them at breakfast. As he looked around the room Richard asked Mary which ones she liked the look of. Mary pointed out the ones she thought looked OK. Although the ones she indicated to Richard all looked quite different in build and height they all had one feature in common; they looked friendly and pleasant. Richard persuaded Mary to walk around with him and introduce themselves to a few of them. One very noticeable fact about the reception was the absence of women. Other than Mary there was only another two or three women in the bar. As they walked round and introduced themselves to a few of the men Mary noticed how most of them seemed very pleasant. Something else she noticed, after Richard had made her aware of it, was how their eyes wandered up and down her body appreciatively. Not long ago Mary would have felt uncomfortable at this type of attention but now she felt flattered, turned on even. If she were being honest, it was not long ago that she would not have even noticed this type of attention. As they walked around meeting the other men Mary indicated to Richard which ones she liked the look of. This was already making Richard feel very jealous. He knew what they were thinking as they introduced themselves to Mary. He could see their eyes casually glancing down at her breasts, curious as to what she would look like with less clothing on! After a while Mary returned to their table and Richard invited the ones she had liked to join them. A waitress came over and Richard ordered more drinks all round. Richard looked around the table at the men Mary had chosen. There were eight of them and Richard noticed how easily the conversation was going between all of them and Mary. Richard could see that she was flirting with all of them. She might not have been aware of flirting but her eyes sparkled and her smile filled her face as she conversed with these men. Richard leaned across and whispered in her ear, "Mary, we need to have a quick word in private." Mary stood up and Richard said to the men, "please excuse us for a few moments." They moved out of hearing range of the men and Richard said, "Mary are you sure about this?" "As sure as I will ever be," said Mary, "how about you?" "Yes, I think so," said Richard. Mary looked at him and smiled and then said, "I know that deep inside you want me to do this. I know it is one of your big fantasies. I am still not certain if I can do it but I want to try. I want you to help me." "How can I help?" said Richard. "You will have to encourage me and, if necessary, not let me stop." "But what if you genuinely want to stop?" "You will know if I genuinely want to stop," she said, "just help me by pushing me a little to be bold." Richard was still uncertain but as they returned to the table he noticed all of the men trying to subtly look at Mary's figure and, seeing the lustful look in their eyes started to turn Richard on. The alcohol probably helped as Richard decided to make the first move in this bold adventure. As they sat down Richard looked around at each of the men and said, "gentlemen, this might sound very strange but we asked you to join us here at our table for a good reason." Richard could see Mary starting to blush before he continued. Mary and I have been lovers for many years and one of my, and recently her, ambitions and fantasies has been for her to experience sex with a group of men!" For the moment there was a stunned silence around the table. Mary felt the lustful stares of all eight men focussed on her once more as she blushed wildly. Although blushing and embarrassed at Richard's bold announcement she realised that she felt turned on as she sensed the men boldly undressing her with their eyes. As Mary looked at the men she could not help but feel that she had seen one or two of them before. In particular she kept looking at the tallest of the men and stopped looking as she realised he was staring directly back at her. "I am sure I have met you before Mary," he said, "but I can't remember when." As Richard tried to decide if to tell him, one of the others spoke up. "Mary," he said, "have you ever heard of the stiff club?" Mary blushed again and looked down, averting her eyes from him. "Yes," she said, "I've heard of it." As she answered she realised why these two looked so familiar. They had been part of her audience the first time she had performed for the club. The tall one spoke first. "I've got it!" he said, "you are 'The Mary!" Mary was not sure where to look. She knew she was blushing as the tall one started to describe to the other men about 'The Stiff Club' Mary listened as he described how women volunteered to perform over the Internet for the enjoyment of the club members. She listened as he described how she had stripped naked for them and then they had all masturbated as they watched her. Mary felt flattered and even more aroused as he went on to tell the others how she had been the best woman ever and how sexy she looked as she had stripped for the men. The other men were keen to ask questions and Mary had to listen as her body was eagerly discussed amongst the men. She felt flattered as the tall man, who she now knew was called Joe, described how incredibly sexy he thought her nipples were. The rest of the conversation passed in a blur as Mary heard Joe talk about her pussy. With the men pre-occupied with their questions, Richard leaned over to Mary and whispered, "do you still want to go through with this?" "Yes," said Mary, "if you do." "OK," Richard continued, "you go back to the room and get ready and I will tell the men some rules on how they must behave and then bring them back to the room." Mary felt as though butterflies were in her stomach as she stood up and left. She felt very, very nervous but also excited as she felt the collective lustful gazes from the men follow her as she left the bar. When she had gone Richard turned to the men. "Both Mary and I are uncertain as to whether we can go ahead with this. We have both fantasised about it but we are uncertain as to how we will feel when it is happening for real We must have some basic rules if you all want to come back to our room and unless you all promise to obey them then this whole thing stops now." All of the men nodded their agreement and Richard continued. "If at any stage Mary or I say stop, you must stop and leave. You must not try to force Mary into doing anything she does not want to do. Do you all agree?" There was a loud chorus of, "yes we all agree." Now it was Richard's turn to feel the butterflies in his stomach as he stood up and asked the men to follow him. As they approached Richard's room Richard was feeling a mixture of nervousness and excitement. His head was full of unanswered questions such as: How would Mary react? Would she go ahead with it? Did he want her to go ahead with it? Was she still in the room? By now they were all standing outside the door. Richard reached forward and rang the doorbell. It seemed to take an eternity before Mary opened the door. When she did finally open it there was a stunned silence from the men followed by a low, mumbled wow! You look great Mary. As she stood to one side to let them all in, Richard could not fail to notice how sexy she looked. Mary had left the top of the bathrobe partly open and as the men looked at her they could not fail to see the twin globes of her breasts sexily contrasted against the black lace of the bra top. Mary had put on her red lipstick that accentuated her sexy smile. Although the others would not know it yet Richard could see that she was also wearing the stockings and suspenders. Richard started to feel excited and for the first time that evening he felt the urge to want to show her off to the other men and see their excitement. Once they were all inside Richard indicated that they should sit down while he served them drinks. His room, as usual, was a suite and for the moment they were all in the outer sitting room. As all of the men sat down Richard opened some beers and Mary took them around to the men. She was surprising herself at how bold she was feeling and behaving, purposely leaning forward in front of each man as she served him his beer, enjoying watching his eyes boldly staring down the front of the bathrobe at her breasts. The black lace corset/bra still gave her the feeling that her breasts would fall out as she leaned forward, but it was this feeling that added to her excitement! Soon the men were openly commenting on the 'wonderful view' as she served them their beers. The initial tension that had been in the room gradually subsided as the men and Mary were really starting to relax. The men were soon teasing Mary about what she might be wearing under the bathrobe. Mary in turn was teasing them back by keeping it a secret and saying things like, "I bet you would all like to know." This teasing went on for some time until Richard decided that he should help to move things along a little. The seats were in a semicircle and Mary was standing so that all the men could see her. Richard walked up behind her and whispered in her ear, "shall I push you a little?" "Yes please," she whispered back to him. "Gentlemen," said Richard, "you have all been trying to guess what Mary is wearing underneath the bathrobe. Do you want to see?" Mary felt the butterflies in her stomach again as the men all replied, "yes please." Richard continued, "as Mary is greatly outnumbered I think it would only be polite and fair for us men to strip naked first!" Mary felt the first feelings of uncertainty as the all men, including Richard, stood up and unhesitatingly started to undress. Mary was surprised to admit to herself that her feelings of uncertainty were equally balanced against her inquisitiveness as she boldly looked from man to man in anticipation of appraising his physique. As she watched them all strip she was impressed at how none of them was unattractive. As they took off their shirts she was impressed at being surrounded by so many strong looking manly chests. When they were all naked from the waist up Mary felt her gaze drawn to their naked flesh. Some were baby smooth whilst others were quite hairy. Mary felt her excitement increase as all the men slowly removed their trousers. She blushed as she realised she was boldly appraising each man's bulge in his underpants as it came into her view. Before long she was gazing at eight men and Richard, who was standing behind her, dressed only in their underpants. What she did not fail to notice was that all of them had at least partial erections, adding to her interest of their bulges! Mary tensed as Richard moved closer behind her and said, "Now gentlemen let's see what Mary is hiding under the bath robe!" Almost before he had finished speaking, Mary felt him reach round in front of her and swiftly untie the belt securing the robe. In one more swift movement he had opened the robe fully and pulled it from her shoulders. As he stood back the robe fell to the floor. Mary suddenly felt exposed and vulnerable as eight pairs of eyes lustfully gazed at her. She heard exclamations of, "wow, you look so sexy Mary." "You look fabulous Mary, I love the stockings." The compliments kept coming and Mary was soon enjoying the flattery from the men. Richard gently pushed her away from him so that she was more or less in the centre of them. This brought forth more comments as some of the men could now see the 'G' string panties that left her bum cheeks fully exposed. They encouraged her to slowly turn around with comments like, "Mary what a sexy arse, turn around and let the others see. Mary felt that familiar wild part of her start to emerge as she followed their instructions and slowly turned around, knowing they were all gazing lustfully at her bum cheeks. She was surprised at how she was enjoying their attention. She still felt vulnerable but also her confidence was growing rapidly as she absorbed all of their compliments. She also noticed that the bulges were growing! She thought to herself that so far it was no different to what she had done on her web cam but deep inside she knew she wanted more! At first her eyes looked downward, too shy to look directly at the men. She could almost feel them undressing her completely in their minds. As her initial shyness began to fade she found the courage to look up. She felt herself still blushing but eventually she looked around at each of the men. They were all smiling at her and still paying her compliments. She noticed a couple of them adjust their stiffening cocks inside their underpants as their erections grew. One by one the men started to remove their underpants. Mary felt her wild side compelling her to watch as each man stripped completely naked. Part of her still wanted to avert her gaze away, but the wild side won every time as she boldly gazed at each stiff cock as it was revealed to her. As each man exposed his cock to her she felt flattered and proud, knowing that she was responsible for its stiffness. The butterfly feelings in her stomach returned as she faced the truth that all these men were stiff for her and wanted to fuck her! Mary realised that the circle of men that were surrounding her was getting nearer to her. All of them were getting closer and closer. She could feel the sexual tension in the atmosphere of the room. She realised that a strange emotion was taking over her mind. She should have felt afraid or at least a little apprehensive but she didn't! She had an overwhelming feeling of an exciting adventure that was about to begin. She just felt she wanted to submit to this feeling and go boldly on this wild adventure. As she felt the men get closer she closed her eyes and waited for the adventure to begin. She did not have to wait for long! Her body momentarily tensed as she felt naked flesh against her bum cheeks. She realised immediately that at least two of the men were now so close that their stiff cocks were brushing against her! Mary kept her eyes closed as she felt the feather like touches of many hands start to roam all over her body. She felt as though she was under a spell and was convinced that if she opened her eyes the spell would break. She felt the tips of many fingers touching her so lightly it was only just perceptible. They lightly roamed over her back, her belly, her neck and face. As this caressing continued she became aware of more and more brushing fingertips. This very gentle teasing had the effect of heightening the sensations that were rushing through her body. Mary felt her self being gently lifted up into many strong arms as though she weighed no more than a feather. Her eyes remained closed as she was carried into the bedroom and very gently lowered down onto the large bed. She felt herself being rolled over onto her front and, although she still had her eyes closed she could almost feel the lustful gazes of the men on her naked bum cheeks. The thin black lace ribbon of the 'G' string panties just barely covering her anus. She continued to feel the many expert hands caressing her body. This time the main concentration was on her legs. She could feel the exquisite touch of their fingers from her feet and ankles all the way up her legs to the backs of her thighs. The many caressing touches that she could feel seemed to move up from her feet in waves. Each time they moved up they would reach just a little nearer to her exposed bum cheeks. Nearer and nearer each time until very soon the first fingers actually touched the naked flesh of her buttocks. The sensations that these expert hands were giving Mary were wonderful. With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken Mary could feel her sexual arousal increasing minute by minute. Although the main concentration of hands was still around her upper thighs and bum, Mary started to feel other hands caressing her neck and back. One by one she felt the fasteners of the corset top being expertly undone. At the same time more hands were unfastening the suspenders. Still with her eyes closed and the spell unbroken she felt her self being rolled over onto her back. A momentary feeling of vulnerability filled her senses as she realised that her corset top was completely undone and, she sensed would very shortly be removed! She felt the straps being lowered over her shoulders. She instinctively raised her arms to help and the corset top was then swiftly removed. Mary gasped at the sudden realisation that she was now almost naked, dressed only in the black lace 'G' string panties and the black stockings. Her naked breasts now displayed for the men. The delicate touches of the expert fingers swarmed all over her body once more. She enjoyed the wonderful sensations filling her senses as the finger tip caresses swarmed in waves over her. Sometimes concentrating on the exposed soft flesh of her upper thighs above her stockings and then on to her belly. Mary could feel her breasts responding to her arousal and felt flattered as she heard many comments like, "Look at Mary's sexy nipples and how erect they are becoming!" Each time the swarm of fingers moved up over her belly, they would get a little closer to her breasts. The anticipation of feeling the fingers touch her breasts for the first time was starting to drive Mary crazy with lust and desire. She could feel her nipples standing pert and erect, aching to be touched and caressed. Just at the moment when she felt like shouting out for them to please touch her breasts, the first set of fingers brushed lightly over her nipples. It felt like an electric shock as waves of pleasure radiated outwards through her body. Soon it felt as though many sets of fingertips were brushing over her excited nipples. Sometimes she felt them being playfully pinched and at other times she felt the whole breast being squeezed and massaged by expert hands. Mary actually sighed out loud as she felt a mouth descend on one of her nipples and begin to lick and suck it. Her sexual arousal was reaching new heights, as she became aware that a few of the hands and fingers were still caressing her lower belly and the tops of her thighs. Although she could still feel an expert mouth and tongue on her breasts, Mary could feel the main swarm of hands and fingertips starting to concentrate once more on her belly and thighs. Every touch of her thighs and belly seemed to focus Mary's mind onto her pussy. She could feel that she was already very wet and aroused and was increasingly yearning for the first contact. With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she willingly let them lift her knees and open her legs. With her legs in this position it felt as though even more sets of fingertips were able to caress her upper thighs. By now the caressing was getting very close to her pussy. The fingertips on her belly were now regularly exploring just under the waistband of her panties, reaching under and lightly touching and stroking her pubic hair. The fingertips that were caressing her thighs were now regularly moving up and touching the sides of the small triangular patch of black lace that only barely covered her pussy. Mary jumped a little as she felt something metallic and cold touch her hip. With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she realised it was a pair of scissors! She felt them cut through the flimsy fabric and then, moving to the other side, she felt them cut through again. Those same horny feelings of vulnerability and lust swept through her body again as she realised that at any moment the flimsy covering of her wet pussy would be removed and she would be revealing her wet minge to their collective lustful gaze. Mary had never felt so full of wild lust as she anticipated her final exposure. She felt the strong hands parting her legs a little further. Her knees were bent up and out and somehow the small piece of black lace still just about covered her wet minge. She then felt someone grip the cut waistband gently and pull it down. She felt the narrow string part being pulled out from her arse and was suddenly aware that her minge was now completely exposed. She heard them comment as her shaved minge came into view. Comments like, "wow Mary has shaved her pussy." And, "look how sexy her cunt looks without any hair!" With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she gasped as the first of the fingers brushed over her wet minge. The tips of the fingers just brushing very lightly over her wet lips, barely touching her but sending waves of pleasure through her lust filled body. The mouth was still busy on her breasts, sending wonderful sensations through her as it expertly sucked and teased her stiff nipples, alternating between her breasts. Mary could now feel many fingertips between her open thighs. They all teased her with feather like touches. With her legs opened wide and feeling fully aroused, Mary could feel that her wet minge was open, showing the delicate folds of sensitive pink flesh within. The teasing fingertips were swarming all over her minge, exploring the outer perimeter of her wet lips. Mary also became aware of other fingertips between her legs lightly brushing over her anus! She no longer felt any inhibitions or shyness; her only thoughts were of lust and sexual desire. With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she wondered where Richard was. She wanted to look and see her lover amongst the men. She wanted to see his smiling face and the lust in his eyes but she did not want to break the spell. She felt a little disappointed as she felt the mouth on her breasts pull away. Both nipples suddenly felt cold as the warm wet breath of that expert mouth abandoned them, just leaving saliva in a wet film over them. The initial feeling of disappointment was rapidly replaced by wild anticipation as she felt the warm breath on her minge! Was it the same man who had left her breasts a moment ago? The fingers that surrounded her open wet minge started to gradually disperse. Some returned to her breasts whilst others caressed her ears and neck. Mary felt the warm breath even closer to her minge now and then the wonderful sensation of a long tongue delicately licking her wet hole from one end to the other. She almost screamed in ecstasy as she felt her minge start to be licked and caressed hungrily. She could feel her legs being supported by many hands as they held her wide open for the man between them to have full and easy access to her. As well as licking around her swollen wet minge lips he would randomly push his tongue inside. Mary could feel her sexual arousal growing and growing and knew she would soon cum. With her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she felt the waves of pleasure start to build in her body as expert hands and fingers once more caressed her breasts, the mystery tongue hungrily explored her minge and a naughty finger started to tease her anus. The finger that teased her anus had initially just circled around it, occasionally brushing directly over it. Now, it was almost permanently touching that tightest of holes, moving in small circles, stimulating her even more. Mary could feel some other movement between her legs and was tempted to open her eyes to see. However she remained with her eyes closed and the spell unbroken as she suddenly felt cold lubricating jelly being applied to her anus. She realised now, without looking, that this man who was giving her so much pleasure with his tongue, was also teasing her arsehole with one hand and squeezing lubricating jelly onto her arse with the other hand! Mary felt her orgasm start to build and gave another moan of pleasure as the tongue pushed deeply into her hungry minge. Almost simultaneously she felt the naughty finger enter her arse! Not very deep, maybe up to the first knuckle joint. Soon the man had his mouth firmly clamped over her minge, sucking and slurping as though he was eating her. All the time his finger was exploring her arse. Mary was aware that now and again he would briefly remove his finger as he squirted more of the lubricating jelly into her. She was starting to cum and she could feel herself starting to lose control. The waves of pleasure, at first just small and pleasant, built up and up until she screamed uncontrollably as the small waves added together into one huge feeling of ecstasy. As she started to scream uncontrollably the finger eased its way fully inside her arse adding to her huge orgasm. After what felt like an eternity Mary felt the orgasm start to subside and almost simultaneously she felt her self being rolled over once more onto her front. The naughty finger still deep in her arse! As she lay on her front her legs were still partly open and she was enjoying the feelings that the naughty finger was giving her. She felt someone lower themselves down on top of her. Mary felt the finger slide out of her arse and for a moment she felt empty. More lubrication was applied to her arse and with her eyes still closed and the spell unbroken she felt something larger than the finger start to press against her arsehole. Mary of course knew it was a cock and she could sense its urgency as it pushed and pushed to try and gain entry. Gradually she felt her arse start to stretch, accepting the swollen head of this stiff cock. She thought how familiar this sensation felt and became aware of hot breath in her ear. There was a momentary stab of pain as the cock pushed further inside her. Mary opened her eyes and broke the spell. She turned her head to the side and saw Richard's smiling face. "I love you my darling," he said, "and I am now going to fuck your arse!" Mary felt confused because there was no sign of the other men. Maybe she had dreamed the whole event in her head as Richard expertly seduced her and activated her wild side. The only fact she knew for sure was that she desperately wanted Richard to fuck her arse. He started to lick and nibble her ear as he resumed the gentle but firm push with his stiff cock. Mary made herself relax the muscles in her arse and as she relaxed she felt Richard's stiff cock gradually push further and further inside. Soon he had all of his cock inside her and they both lay perfectly still for a while savouring the unique feelings that they were experiencing. Mary thought how huge Richard's cock felt as it stretched her, filling her with his manhood. She had always been amazed, ever since the first time, at how it excited her pussy to have Richard's cock in her arse. The two holes seemed to be linked and both gave her pleasure. Richard was savouring the wonderful feeling of having his stiff cock gripped so tightly. Feeling the warmth of her tight muscles gripping him. Very, very slowly Richard started to fuck Mary's arse. At first just moving his cock in and out by about an inch or so. As he felt her becoming accustomed to it he started to increase the depth and speed of his thrusts. Mary was soon starting to reach another orgasm as she felt the urgency of his stiff cock in her arse. Richard reached under her and roughly held her breasts, squeezing them and pulling on her nipples as he thrust into her. Mary could feel the urgency of his breathing in her ear and felt his whole body tense as he thrust as hard as he could. Suddenly she heard him give a low moan of pleasure and felt his warm spunk fill her arse. His thrusting started to subside until eventually he just lay on top of her with his cock still buried in her. Mary could feel his cock start to soften and as it did she could feel it start to slip out. Eventually it 'plopped' out of her arse and she could feel its wetness against her thighs. They lay together for a while, savouring the magical moment. The other men were never mentioned again and Mary is still uncertain if they ever existed. 11 1
