| Keeping Secrets On the surface, Tera Stevens and her daughter looked like they had it all. Both of them were beautiful, successful and popular. They were well-liked in the community and the type of women who paid their bills on time and stayed out of trouble. They were known to be perfect neighbors, pillars of the community. Or so it seemed on the surface. Neither woman knew it was all a carefully crafted faηade, a house of cards that would come tumbling down. Tera and Bethany had made it entirely on their own with little and often no help from anyone else. Bethany's deadbeat dad had never offered a dime of child support and Tera often referred to him as "the sperm donor". Bethany had met her father once and despised him on sight. Tera had her daughter at 16, which infuriated her parents. They told her she was on her own and they hadn't spoken in 16 years. While it was difficult for Tera to go it alone, she did whatever she could to make a go of things. She no longer partied like her former friends; instead, she got herself as many babysitting jobs as she could to help make ends meet, with the condition she could bring Bethany along. She banked almost all of the money and she stayed in school, buckling down to get the good grades she had previously neglected. Upon graduation, she took a number of university courses to upgrade her education. If Tera had anything to say about it, Bethany was not going to grow up poor. In addition to her education, Tera got a part-time job that paid her very good money, even if the hours were wonky. Luckily, by this time, Tera had made friends in the building in which she was living and they all agreed to watch Bethany for her. This job was nothing like babysitting and she wouldn't have been able to bring her daughter to work. Tera applied herself to everything she could. She made time to be a parent to Bethany and she worked hard at her job, putting in as many hours as she could and she made sure to keep herself in good shape. On the weekends, she allowed herself a bit of "me" time, although Sundays were the days she slept as much as she could. She was near-exhaustion those days and knew by Monday, the cycle would start all over again. After 5 years of struggling to get by, of scrimping and saving so that Bethany could have the things she needed while Tera got her education, all of that was finally over. Her education was complete and schooling behind her. Tera continued working, adding additional hours, but when the big break came her way; she grabbed it without looking back. She started with Open Tech as a receptionist but the bosses were so impressed with her that she was able to work her way up to an executive assistant position. Tera's confidence grew. She began dressing nice, in a more business-like manner, although she didn't forget the fact that she was still a sexy young woman. Under the business suits was expensive blouses and designer lingerie. She had always loved heels and now she could afford to indulge in a pair of Jimmy Choos or Louis Vuttons. Bethany stopped going to school with bagged lunches and now got whatever she wanted. They moved to a 3-bedroom apartment and then, to a condo. Things were stable for the first time in Tera's life and Bethany was doing very well in school. Her social life took an upward turn as well. When she was in school, she didn't have much time to socialize and when she was working, she focused on that. Only on Saturdays did Tera have time for dating, although she spent more of that time with friends while Bethany was home with a babysitter. That was no longer the case. When her daughter turned 12, she wasn't afraid to leave the young girl at home alone or let her stay overnight at a friend's. Tera had always been a sexual woman, but her desires had gone on the back burner while playing mom. Not any more, they wouldn't. Tera wasn't going after one- night stands, but she wasn't actively seeking a committed relationship or a husband either. A select few fuck-buddies were exactly what the 28-year old brunette was seeking and when you were as gorgeous as she was, you didn't have to look very far. Tera went out about twice a week, more when Bethany got a large group of friends of her own. The sexual Tera began to emerge again, she had never been far from the surface and now she was actively enjoying sex. Anyone that bedded Tera she had picked her bedmates carefully had better bring their A-game and prepare to be exhausted when they were done. The wild, beautiful, sex-crazed, sometimes-kinky Tera had returned. She let her inner sensuality become unleashed. There were even a few liaisons at the office, a sexy intern here or there that yielded to quickies in the boardroom or assignations in the woman's washroom where they might get caught at any moment. The thrill of that rushed through Tera like wildfire. Tera felt as if her life was on the right path at long last. She had been with the company for a number of years when things came to a screeching halt. Open Tech pulled the rug out from under her indeed, they pulled it out from everyone. The new management at the company had decided to outsource most of their work, putting all but a skeleton crew out of work. As Tera no longer had a boss, she was an assistant to no one. To add insult to injury, the severance package to those who were offered one was a joke. Tera and several other employees filed suit but were told it would take a few years and Tera knew her money would dry up quicker than she could afford. Tera had always made it on her own. She worked hard and she had intended to stay with the company, until the previous owner's son had nearly run it into the ground, that had been a viable option. Now she had a nearly-16 year old daughter and bills to pay. Luckily, money she had invested earlier left her with money in the bank and no mortgage, but she still had taxes and other things to worry about. The economy wasn't good at this point and pickings were slim. Tera didn't know what it was she could do about all of this. Yes she did. It would be a bold gamble and a step backward, but what other choice did she have? The bills had to be paid and until her lawyer got the severance package to which she was entitled, it was a chance to earn some money some very good money, if she put in the hours. Hard work was no stranger to Tera, but she had to hide it from Bethany. She had her alibi all planned out and prayed her daughter wasn't going to pry. To allay her daughter's suspicions, she planned Bethany's 16th birthday as if nothing at all had changed in their lives even though everything had. She invited Bethany and a few of her closest friends out for a nice dinner on Friday evening. None of Bethany's friends were male, Bethany didn't make much time for dating, reminiscent of Tera herself when she was that age. The thing that nagged at Tera was that her daughter was a straight-A student and had no bills to pay. She worked only part-time and could have dated as often as she pleased, but she was usually hanging around with friends or staying late after school to work on assignments. She hoped that Bethany wasn't ignoring the fun elements of school in favor of grades there had to be a balance. At 10 AM Monday morning, Tera walked through the front door of the Palomino, head held high. As she knew she would be, Blake was still there. A bit of weight on her body, but still sensual and attractive, in her earthy way. "Holy shit, Fleur DeLis," She smiled, putting down her drink. Tera hadn't heard that name in over a decade and yet she knew it still carried weight. From the day that she had started stripping her all those years ago, "Fleur" had been a sensation. By the time she finished, she was a top draw and making almost as much as she had when she went over to Open Tech. "What brings you back here babe, not that I'm not glad to see you," Blake smiled. Despite the reputation of some strip clubs being seedy, Blake Astin ran a clean club. No drugs, no hooking and her girls followed the letter of the law. She had been close to Blake very close before she decided to marry her longtime girlfriend. They had split with no hard feelings between them and "Fleur" retired 6 months later. "I'm looking to get back into the game, at least for a little while," Tera said, using the soft, dulcet tones that "Fleur" had affected as part of her persona. "Think you could use me, do I still have what it takes?" Tera knew the answer to that, she kept her body in tremendous shape and could compete with any girl 15 years her junior. Blake nodded. "You're still gorgeous babe, but I don't know," She smiled. "We've got our regulars and besides, you weren't afraid to push the envelope." That was true one time Fleur and another dancer, Emily, really got into it on stage. "Fleur" and "Orchid" were faking it onstage but coming as close to reality as they could get. Backstage had been a whole other matter. "We both know the crowd went wild and you met a shitload of money that night," Tera pressed her point. "I'm sure there are still guys who haven't forgotten and if you play your cards right, you can still pack them in. I'll add an incentive I think I can coax "Orchid" back here for a one-night only performance, her and I, what do you say?" Tera knew she had Blake right by the pubic hairs. Laws had relaxed even more so they could push the envelope to the extreme. She had no worries about getting in touch with Emily, she knew right where the former dancer was and she owed Tera a huge favor. Blake looked at her and knew that Tera had her in spite of any reservations. Despite her being in her early 30's, no one would really believe that. Statuesque and even more beautiful now than she had been back then, Tera would indeed "pack them in". Blake and Tera settled on terms and she went home feeling a lot more relaxed. She was to start next week and wouldn't even be skipping a paycheck. There was one final minor hurdle to take care of and she didn't think it would be too big a problem. She got out her phone and dialed Emily's number. "Hey you," Emily's cheery voice came over the phone. "I haven't seen you in a few months, what's new?" "I lost my job at Open Tech," Tera confessed. "Oh no!" Emily gasped out loud. "How are you going to support yourself and pay the bills? This is a horrible time to be out of work." "Don't I know it," Tera told her. "I have some savings, but they won't last long because the severance package they offered is a joke, so I'm suing them. In the meantime, no income so I'm going back on stage." "You don't mean ...?" "I DO mean and I want you to come back for one performance next weekend, to help me fill the house, like we used to do," Tera told her. There was a silence on the other end of the phone that seemed to take forever. "Tera you know that I can't do that, I'm a respected teacher now and if anyone ever found out I used to be a stripper, I could ..." Tera didn't let her finish. "You weren't just some stripper bitch, you were an exotic dancer and a damned good one. You owe me Em, and you did say anything. Do you remember Valerie?" Tera would have sworn that she could almost hear Emily shivering on the other end of the phone. Lovely little Valerie, with her nimble little body and snaky long tongue and piercing blue eyes. "Yes ... I remember. It's just so dangerous if it ever got out." Tera grinned, knowing her trump card had done its work. "It won't get out sweetie, who would ever equate lovely Emily Primrose with Orchid, the naughty erotic dancer? Next Saturday, be at my place around 2 and we'll practice a bit. I'm sure you're not entirely rusty," Tera giggled as she hung up the phone. On Monday afternoon, a bit after lunch time, Tera went to work. She left a note for her daughter, telling her that she would be home from her "consulting" job a bit after 7 and that she would bring dinner. She ended the note by telling her daughter to have a good day in school. Only Bethany wasn't in school. At 1 PM, she was on all fours eating the pussy of delightful little Barbie Spencer while Barbie's older sister Stevie was dildo-fucking her asshole. She was making sure to lick Barbie's pussy with extra gusto today, for the geography homework Barbie had helped her with hell, Barbie had practically done it all had earned her an A . While Stevie's thick cudgel was going in and out of her little starfish, she remembered that she had promised Bethany a 2-hour tutorial in math in exchange for this extra favor. Math was a tough subject for Bethany, so she had agreed to it. Over at the kitchen table, doing most of Bethany's French homework, was Alison Reynolds, age 17. She was Bethany's best friend, first lover and the girl who had helped her set up this clandestine arrangement. Going over a history paper Bethany had written and was due in a week was Charlotte Terrell, another friend who was going to get an A-plus session of cunnilingus if she came through. Bethany's grades were so good that she had a good chance of getting a scholarship at the end of the year. Mrs. Dennison had told her that yesterday while Bethany was sucking on her tits and Katie Dennison was fingering her from behind. It was the Dennison's apartment they were using now, 39 year-old Melissa Dennison taught English and her 24-year old daughter taught science. Both of them were fucking Bethany every chance they got, always together, as they were unashamed lesbian swingers with a penchant for younger girls. The heat in her ass reminded Bethany of how she had started all of this. She was a smart girl and could have likely gotten the grades all on her own, she just didn't want to devote that much time to studying. She wanted to enjoy her life a bit more and not put her nose to the grindstone, the way her mother always had. She was sad that Tera had to work so hard for all of these years, Bethany sure as hell wasn't going that route. She wanted to enjoy life, to fuck and have fun. Alison had opened her up sexually some months back and unleashed a tigress. Alison had lovers that she used to help her out in school, she exchanged sexual favors for help and was at the top of her class. As Bethany was already digging the sex she had with her gorgeous blonde friend, she thought that sounded like a fair trade. Alison steered her to some willing participants and Bethany was surprised when Allie herself turned out to be one of them. "I've spoken French at home since I was born, why shouldn't I get in on this?" She giggled as she and Bethany stripped down and went into a torrid sixty-nine. She felt Stevie Spencer shuddering in orgasm and she crooked a finger at Allie. The little blonde was a teenaged cum-slut and proud of it, so she began licking Bethany's ass and cunt. While that was going on, she saw that Barbie had cum as well and was now sitting beside Charlotte, going over today's geography homework. Every so often, the tiny strawberry blonde would glance over at Charlotte, or she, back at Barbie's naked body. Bethany thought it was so cute, they obviously had a thing for each other and eventually, she was going to bring them together. Then she would instigate a little mini orgy to celebrate, making sure the Dennison's were invited to swing with them too. Bethany was a smart girl who knew not to burn her bridges behind her. She also had other options lined up, she could fuck her way through university too, if she chose to take that route. Bethany didn't mind fucking these gorgeous honeys, although she preferred older women like Melissa for their experience. She was sensual, funny, dressed impeccably and was in control at all times. Melissa had great endurance and made sure that "her" girls enjoyed a nice cum. For the most part, Bethany very much enjoyed the company of pretty girls like Alison and Barbie and delicious, mature sluts like Melissa Dennison, women who could exhaust her sexually and inspire her to new kinks. As Alison's tongue snaked in and out of her pussy, Bethany knew that although might possibly be bi it was too early to be sure as yet - her strongest desires were for women. There were so many options available and she could be so much more discreet in her flings with girls. Her own mother didn't even suspect she and Allie were "girlfriends" in that sense of the word. At times, she wondered if her mother had ever been with a girl, but when could it have happened? She was a young mother with a child to raise, as far as Bethany knew, her mom's life had slowed to a crawl until recent years. Would she have had sex with a woman was Tera that free-thinking? In the end, Bethany decided that it simply didn't matter each of them had their own lives to lead and their own paths to walk. She began heating up her love play with Allie and felt everyone's eyes watching them. Just as she finished with Allie, the Dennison's walked in with huge smiles on their faces. Bethany knew that the rest of the day was going to go just fine ... The following Saturday afternoon, things could not have worked out better for Tera and Emily to practice their routine. Bethany had gone out with her friend Alison, Tera was glad that her daughter had a best friend and confidante. The two of them had been inseparable the past number of months, so that was great for all concerned. Emily showed up a bit after noon, a bit fidgety and nervous. "I'm still not sure about this, this could all blow up in our faces," Emily said as her friend hugged her. "But, I did promise and a promise is a promise," She smiled weakly. "You've always kept your promises baby, that's one of the things I love about you," Tera smiled. "Oh, and what are the others?" Emily teased with a soft, melodious giggle. It was important that she get into the spirit of things, to allow "Orchid's" personality to emerge again. Tera had once commented that it was almost as if she had a split personality, the dedicated teacher and academian and the wild, naughty, flirty little Orchid that she had been when she and Tera met all those years ago. Tera had been the only one to see those two personalities blend well, Tera and yummy little Valerie, of course. "Why are you wearing a coat?" Emily asked her girlfriend. "Are we going out to lunch first or something? You won't need it babe, it's 72° out there, sunny and beautiful." Tera whipped off the long coat that had been hiding her outfit. Underneath it she was wearing black PVC, a corset, long black gloves and black thong, high boots and instantly, Emily knew what routine they were going to perform. "We're doing Mistress Teacher and Naughty Student? Oh God, I'm creaming already," Emily panted. She hadn't been much older than Tera's daughter the first time they performed it and she always had an intense orgasm after. She and Tera would push the envelope as far as they dared and then go back to the dressing room and finish each other off. Sometimes, they weren't alone and full-on orgies would break out. To Emily, those were some of the best times of her life. "Blake is shutting down at 5 PM on Saturday, she sold tickets to a private performance that starts at 9 and is not open to the public," Tera breathed, taking Emily's face between her hands and squeezing it a bit. "We can really push it, perhaps go as far as having real sex on stage does that excite you, lezzie whore?" "Oh God, Tera, you know that it does," Emily panted. "I love being subordinate to you, we don't get enough time to play anymore." "We'll fix that when Bethany goes to university, I promise," Tera teased, running a gloved finger across Emily's arm. "You'll come over here a few times a week and I'll order you to eat my pussy and lick my rosebud and bathe me and shave my sweet pussy will that get you off?" She smiled. Emily nodded, words failing her. She had tried to put "Orchid" behind her, tried a short marriage and some other unsuccessful relationships, but to no avail. Men were fine as friends, but not as lovers. Most women were too gentle and allowed her too much control. Only Tera, "Mistress Fleur" in this persona, knew the proper line to tread, just how much of the leash to let loose and how much she could let her pet stray. Emily trembled with delight and realized if Tera had ordered her to quit her respectable teaching job and resume her career as her stage partner and slave, she would do it in a heartbeat. "Come here and prove your devotion to me, little slut," Tera commanded. "I'm sure you remember all the things I like, it hasn't been that long," She purred in a soft tone, yet left no doubt this was not a request. It had been years that had felt like an eternity to Emily, but she had enough composure to ask "Aren't we supposed to be rehearsing for tonight?" "Later, slut," Tera groaned as her body's desires betrayed her. "I've been thinking of this all morning and I really need you to get me off. Eat me out first, drink my juices and make me cum, we'll still have a few hours to practice the routine." Emily began peeling off the gauzy blouse she had been wearing. Underneath, she wore the pretty, feminine lingerie she knew that Tera liked on her, the kind that "Orchid" looked so lovely wearing. Her dress fell to the floor and she got down on her knees, moving close to "Fleur" who stood there with her legs spread wide apart. "Lick it, lezzie whore, lick teacher's slutty cunt for all your sass in class yesterday," Tera commanded, affecting her alter-ego's dominant persona. This was just one of the routines she and Emily had engineered during their youth, but it was the one that most often brought the crowd to their feet. She looked down and saw that Emily's bright blue eyes were gleaming with happiness. How could she have been so foolish as to let this treasure slip part-way from her life? That was a situation she would remedy, starting today. "May I take off your panties and taste your nectar, Mistress Fleur?" Orchid asked her beloved mistress. Now, she only lived to serve and be docile and Fleur knew it. "No, I rather think not, sweet whore," Fleur teased. "Move them aside with your hands, be gentle and not clumsy and eat my cunt while I wear them. You are to make me cum and not miss any of it or I will thrash your ass," She hissed. "I want to see if you are as good a slut as I recall you being." "I I'll do my best, Mistress Fleur," Orchid panted. It was a game they played on stage sometimes she would let a trickle escape and Fleur would thrash her ass red, other times, she would please Fleur so much that they would pleasure each other and then end the show. The audience came back frequently, never knowing the outcome. "Hmff," Fleur teased. "As I recall, your best is adequate," She played. "I need you slut, make me cum and do it quickly." Emily's heart was going a mile a minute. She could smell the oh-so familiar scent of her lover's pussy through the PVC thong and as she moved it aside, there was Tera's gorgeous cunt, all hers. She began to lick it and all her old knowledge came back to her. She wanted to reward Tera for allowing her this opportunity, so she used all the skills that her first lesbian lover had taught her, as well as all the others that had come since. From the shrieks she heard Tera making, she believed those were lessons she had learned well. "Oh, FUCK Em," Tera groaned, forgetting her play-acting for the moment "You still make a girl crazy with that fucking tongue of yours. Eat me bitch, really dig in there and then we'll make some time for a sixty-nine. I haven't tasted your sweet pussy in years baby, I'm dying to see if it's as sweet as I remember!" "Fleur" and "Orchid" both lost themselves briefly in the here and now. Tera almost felt as if her legs were going to give out and Emily clamped her tongue and face deeply into Tera's pussy, seeking all the pussy cream she could find. Able to stand no more, Tera tugged Emily's arm towards the couch. She grinned evilly at her friend-slave. "Unbutton my corset, play with my tits and go down on me," She commanded. "Make me cum twice and I will accord you the honor of my lips on your unworthy body." She didn't tell Emily she had already cum once, why ruin a good thing? "Of course Mistress Fleur, anything you command," Emily said, giving herself over totally to the fantasy. She knew the rewards for pleasuring the strong, commanding Tera would be plentiful, not just now, but on stage and maybe even after. She set about to remind her old friend why they had been so good together, on-stage and off. A number of hours later, "Fleur" and "Orchid" were ready to go on and perform their routine before a packed house. Both of them had enough common sense to stop after a few hours of play and grab dinner before heading to the Palomino. They wanted to give the sold-out crowd a show that would have them talking for years. Melissa Dennison and her daughter walked into the club and took their front-row seats. To the right of them sat their invited guest. The youngster was going to be spending the night with both of them and they hoped this little erotic performance would prime her pump. They were covered in case anyone checked IDs, Bethany had a friend that could make a fake ID that would have fooled an FBI agent. Bethany Stevens was really looking forward to the show. Several of her "girlfriends" had told her that they'd heard through the grapevine it was supposed to be sensational. When the music amped up and the two women came out on stage, she looked right into the startled faces of Miss Emily Primrose and ... |
