A Lavish Affair

‘SO THIS IS
really quite a lavish affair then?’

Edward glances sideways at me from the driver’s seat as we scud along, looking as handsome as the very devil done up in a sexy dark suit. It’s quite a shock seeing him in formal wear. I’m used to him in leather, or partially – or completely – naked.

‘Yes, ultra posh. Beauchamp Manor belongs to Mandy’s rich relations and they’ve given her the reception there as a wedding gift.’

‘Sounds like fun,’ he says, eyes back on the road.

Fun? What does that mean? My innards tremble. I know Edward’s idea of fun. And even though I like it, it’s sometimes scary.

I’m still fizzing with excitement that he’s agreed to be my escort. We’ve been involved for quite some time now, but we’ve never come out like this in public before. I’m a bit nervous. After all, it’s not often a fairly straight woman in her forties nabs a gorgeously hot sexy master nearly half her age. And there’ll be lots of people from work who’ll remember him as the fit young freelance IT guy who set up our new computer system. The one they always speculated about as they wondered just who he was banging.

It was me, everyone! Average old Jane Mitchell from Human Resources. He was fucking me, and spanking me, and God knows what else … and he’s still doing it!

I can see he’s scheming. He loves to make even the simplest of dates an event.

We go out for a meal and he’ll make me give him a blow job in the car park. On a trip to the movies, he’ll play with me in the darkness. Out for a walk in the woods, and he’ll bend me over a fallen tree trunk and thrash me long and hard with his leather belt.

And when we’re at his flat or mine, he’s even more imaginative.

We drive on for a few miles. It’s countryside now. Wooded copses on either side of the road. I think of that tree trunk, and my pussy gets all wet and my panties sticky. I try not to smile, but my heart races and excitement bubbles even more.

‘What are you smiling about?’

Ah, it seems I didn’t hide my smile after all. He’s noticed, and he’s smiling himself in that way I know so well.

‘Oh, nothing much …’

He gives me the swiftest of glances out of the corner of his blue eyes.

Uh-oh, I know that look too.

‘Somehow, I think if this affair is as posh as you say it is, we need to have you on your best behaviour, don’t we?’ He pauses, scanning the road side, as if looking for something. ‘I think I need to give you a little something to settle you down.’

I can’t breathe. I feel faint. My heart turns over and my pussy ripples with longing.

Almost immediately, he’s signalling, and we pull off the road and turn into a narrow lane. It winds away from
the
main drag and around a few corners then amongst some trees. When Edward finally stops the car, we’re out in the wilds and invisible from the road and civilisation. He steps out and hurries round to my side, opening the door and handing me courteously out on to the rough path. He might be cruel as sin sometimes, but he does have gorgeous old-fashioned manners.

‘Raise your skirt, will you?’ he says conversationally, as we stand beside the car. To him it’s a perfectly normal request, and it’s one I’ve become used to myself. It still has the power to thrill me to my core though.

I’m dressed up to the nines, in high heels and a dark suit with a long, narrow skirt, rather Forties style, and glam. The jacket’s tightly fitted, plunges low, and I’m not wearing a blouse. I haven’t informed him what I’m wearing underneath, but it’s a treat I know he’ll appreciate, even if he thrashes my bottom for being so brazen.

‘Come on, get a move on, you don’t want us to be late, do you?’ His voice is mild and amused. He’s having fun. So am I.

Teetering on my heels, I put one gloved hand on the car, and with the other I snake up my skirt, not hesitating until it’s all in a clump at my waist. My stockings are smoke-grey hold-ups and my panties are rose-pink lace, and a pretty lavish affair too. Deep, scalloped lace at the front, and cleverly scooped up at the back, thong-style, to leave my buttocks virtually bare. Just the way Edward likes them. The way his eyes darken as he appraises them is a dead giveaway – even though he looks as calm and cool as ever on the surface. Automatically, I turn, as I know he wants me to, and show him the plump cheeks of my bum.

‘Very nice, but very pale. We need to do something about that, don’t we?’

I stand, shaking, as he walks towards me. When he’s so close I can feel his breath on the back of my neck, he pushes on my shoulders, making me dip over the bonnet of the car, skirt still up.

‘Good. That’s just right.’

My heart feels as if it’s in my throat and I can barely breathe. I hear the jingle of his belt, and simultaneously think,
oh no
, and
goodie
. I’m still not sure how I can hate pain and love it at the same time. Perhaps, though, I don’t? Maybe I just love him?

‘OK. As it’s a special occasion, you may finger your clit at the same time as I beat you.’

‘Thank you, master,’ I whisper, resting on my elbows, awkwardly, so I can peel off a glove. Then I reach under myself to find the hot spot, and almost come when I make contact, I’m so ready.

Edward steps away, and with no further warning, I hear the hiss of flying leather and there’s an explosion of pain and heat across my bottom.

Oh God! I’m never ready for this. It’s always a shock. The feeling of a stripe of agony across my flesh. Without control, I whine loudly, shuddering and shaking. Beneath my fingertip, my clitoris pulsates.

He strikes again – harder – and I bite my lip, trying to keep silent. In the all too brief hiatus before the next blow, I rub my pussy, furiously slicking at my clit.

As he hits again, I collapse against the shiny black paint, coming and crying. The waves of pleasure are so hard and wrenching that I barely notice another wallop, the last one for now.

‘We’ll be late,’ I gasp on regaining the power of speech. I’m still gulping in air, my entire body tingling, my bottom
burning
. I seem to have lost the ability to move, but energy returns to me when Edward strokes my back, encouraging me like a horse-master coaxing a steady old mare into action. He’s gentle, though, almost tender, and it makes my heart twist in a strange, non-sexual way.

He’s a BDSM freak, but he can be kind, and very sweet.

‘Come on then, love,’ he says brightly. ‘Let’s move it, shall we?’ He helps me with my skirt, brushing me down lightly, then straightens my jacket. Licking the corner of his handkerchief, he delicately tidies my eye make-up where it’s run a bit from my tears. Finally, he hands me my glove. ‘There! You look gorgeous, old girl.’ He gives me a light, reassuring kiss on my cheek.

‘And you look as if you desperately need a shag,’ I answer cheekily, glancing down at his crotch. He’s got a massive hard-on that’s tenting his elegant trousers.

His blue eyes narrow. Threateningly, but with a twinkle. ‘If it didn’t mean we’d be late, I’d thrash you again for your insolence.’

My head comes up. I like to challenge him sometimes, and he likes it too. He winks at me as he opens the passenger door for me. I hiss through my teeth when I resume my seat in the car, my stripes stinging, but after that I’m quiet and full of thought as we race towards the wedding venue.

I like him. I like him probably more than I should. He’s fabulous. Utterly gorgeous. A real catch, handsome as sin, a beautiful man. Tall and dark and roguish with his neat goatee beard, his brilliant eyes and his wicked, teasing smile.

He’s everything I want, but I should have found him twenty years ago.

Now stop that, you silly woman. Just don’t go there …

*

The wedding itself is charming, and takes place in an old country church, but the pews are very hard and unforgiving to my punished bottom. A fact that clearly delights Edward. His eyes glitter, and his smirk is salacious as we share a battered hymnal.

The way he looks at me makes me want to do things that one shouldn’t even
think
about in church. Like kneeling the wrong way round in the pew, while everybody else praises the Lord, to give
my
lord and master an extended blow job.

I drift through the reception on a wave of heightened awareness. This whole affair should be about Mandy and her new husband, but somehow they seem distant, on the periphery of my attention. All I can think about is Edward and his hands, his mouth, his cock. Speculative glances follow us wherever we go. I can see the surprise, imagine the muttered comments. Isn’t that the IT guy with Jane Mitchell? The hot one who set up the new system a while back? How come those two are here together?

You don’t know that half of it, people. And if you did, you wouldn’t believe it.

Edward takes every opportunity to touch me, obviously aware of the interest in us. He guides my arm as we enter the house. He touches my back as we head towards the bridal receiving line. He pats my bottom, making me gasp, as we step forward to meet Mandy and her spouse, and, preoccupied as she must be, she seems to notice what he does.

‘So glad you could come, Jane, and nice to see you again, Edward.’ She grins widely, accepting our congrats.

Throughout the champagne swigging and canapé nibbling, Edward keeps eyeing me, that wicked, arch look on his face. His glance keeps drifting to my frontage, and the deep V of my suit jacket, as if he’s speculating about what lies beneath it.

Wouldn’t you like to know, mister
.

After I’ve adjusted my lapels a couple of times, to let him know I’ve noticed his interest, he suddenly takes my champagne glass from me, knocks back the half-inch in it, and grabs me by the elbow and steers me towards the open French windows that lead to the garden. One or two people watch us, including Susan Grey, who works in my office, and I think,
Yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking!

Always clever at finding a secluded spot to have his way with me, Edward directs me around the side of the house until we happen upon what seems to be an old stable block. There are no horses there now, but we find a stall that’s filled with old boxes and clearly used for storage.

‘Show me!’ he commands.

I don’t have to ask what he means, and with shaking fingers I unfasten my jacket.

‘Oh, very nice,’ he breathes, in genuine admiration.

I’ve crammed myself into a deliciously naughty and very beautiful bustier. It’s all pink satin and lace and it matches my skimpy thong. The cups are next to nothing, just a bit of frothy gauze, almost transparent, and my nipples are dark and hard, poking and pointing. In Edward’s direction.

He reaches for me, and them, immediately. Cupping and stroking, he rolls the sensitive crests between his thumbs and fingers, squeezing a little as he manipulates me, but not hurting.

‘Just gorgeous …’ With respect for a garment that cost a fortune, and which I would only ever buy to please him, he scoops my breasts out of the fragile cups so that they rest on top of them, flauntingly offered. Then to my astonishment, he swoops down and kisses each teat, using his tongue, licking and anointing.

When he touches me again, the faint film of saliva adds a new layer of sensitivity. I moan and work my hips as he flicks and tickles me.

In these sorts of situations, I usually have to wait for permission to touch him, but right now, I can’t help myself. I grab his head, digging my fingers into his thick, shampoo-fragrant hair. When he sucks a nipple again, I groan out loud, loving the sweet tugging sensation that’s echoed in my clit. Caressing his scalp, I throw my head back, almost swooning.

I love this man. It’s mad but it’s true.

Still sucking and toying around my teat with his tongue, he grips my bottom and stirs the flames that are simmering there. It burns hard, yet in my sex the honey flows. I shift my hips about. I can’t keep still. I need him in me.

As if he’s heard my plea, Edward straightens, his dark head cocked on one side, that knowing smile framed by his goatee.

‘If you have it now, you’ll have to pay, you know,’ he says all low and serious, even though I know inside he’s laughing.

‘I know.’ My voice is small, affectedly submissive. I’m laughing too, inside.

‘OK then.’ All business, he glances around, looking, I realise, for somewhere for us to fuck that won’t ruin our posh wedding clothes. He nods towards an old wooden door, oaken and solid, that leads into an adjoining room. The surface is smooth and looks passably clean. I totter towards it, feeling shaky but horny as hell. Edward follows, pushing me onwards, a force of nature.

He backs me up against the wood and it’s hard against my punished bottom. The stripes from his belt are fading now, but I still let out an ‘oof!’ of breath when he throws himself up against me and starts to kiss me as if I’m a hunk of prime filet mignon and he’s a starving wolf. Worry for my make-up
shoots
through my mind then evaporates. It can be fixed, anything can be fixed. I’ve got to have him.

‘Skirt!’ he orders. Rocking back on his heels, he’s already unfastening that devilish belt of his, then attacking his trousers and underwear to expose his cock. As I rumple up my clothing, ready and eager, I stare downwards.

And now I’m the ravening she-wolf, slavering over
his
meat.

He’s prime, hard and high and reddened, his glans shining and the veins in his shaft sublimely defined. A work of art. And mine. For the moment. For a split second, I scrabble around for the itsy-bitsy little bag that’s still dangling from my shoulder, but he just says, ‘Leave it!’ and reaches into his pocket.

So, we’ve both brought condoms to the occasion. I have to smile, and he nods and smiles back at me, his blue eyes suddenly beautifully young and merry.

‘Great minds think alike.’ I grin at my own cliché as he efficiently enrobes himself.

He gives me a despairing yet indulgent look, and then summarily grabs my thigh, lifting me and opening me while pushing aside my thong and positioning his cock at my entrance with his free hand.

No preliminaries. No niceties. No foreplay. Who needs it?
