Marie-Claire Gets her Groove Back (Thursday Taster #18)

#7:       Marie-Claire Gets her Groove Back

Over the course of the next couple of days, the women became friends, with the delectable Cynthia Jackson literally setting the pace. She was quite smooth at it too, her questions were crafted as easy lead-ons, and never sounded like points of interrogation at all.

At first Marie-Claire stayed well within the safety of straight one-liners when she responded to any question posed by her new friend. As their easy conversations progressed however, Cynthia’s openness encouraged her to ease up and be a little bit more sharing.

Her attraction to the chocolate beauty wouldn’t let up despite her best effort to suppress it. It quickly grew into a crush she couldn’t shake. She suspected the other woman noticed it too.

‘Of course she would, she’s been flirting with me from the get go.’

Marie-Claire particularly liked the way Cynthia was always quick to empathize and compliment appropriately whilst never losing eye contact when they talked. 

At first she found it tortuous to maintain eye contact, but considering how flattered she felt especially after eons of being ignored by Antoine, she gradually warmed up to it.

The ladies had dinner together and while they were eating, Cynthia made Marie-Claire almost choke on her food when she proposed a plan for the following evening.

“Marie-Claire, as you know tomorrow is Saturday, and there’s that dance on the ship. Well I was wondering, would you be my date?”

At first it didn’t make any sense to the French divorcee, especially considering she knew Cynthia was travelling with her boyfriend Alfie. Alfie is a very suave and smooth charmer so she was wondering why her friend would not go on a date with him.

“Did you and Alfie have a fight?” she asked

“Oh no far from it; Let’s just say Alfie has his hands full at the moment.”

“I do not understand, what could be more interesting than going on  date with a sexy and beautiful woman such as yourself...?”

Marie-Claire regretted the words the moment they were out of her mouth. She feared she had just let the cat out of the bag regarding her desire for the other woman.

“Why, thank you kind lady... You know you do have quite a way of making a woman feel... desired.” Cynthia let the last word roll seductively off her tongue even as she favoured her friend with a naughty wink.

“I don’t know what to say...” She hedged, desperately trying to buy some time so she could think...

“Well, just say yes and I promise I’ll fill you in on why Alfie has his hands full before our date is over tomorrow... Deal?”

The tension was palpable as the women locked eyes for what seemed an eternity. Finally Marie-Claire gently let out her breathe, her body relaxing somewhat.

“Yes, deal.”

#6:       Waiting to Exhale

Like most divorced women inevitably found out; Marie-Claire soon realized that calls and contact with her friends, most of whom were friends of both she and Antoine became fewer and farther in between as the weeks passed.

She knew she hadn’t done anything wrong, and thought it unfair to be paying the price for standing up to her ex-husband and holding him accountable for his treachery rather than remaining quiet like the “good wife”.

Unwilling to be judged by people she now considered hypocrites, she reached a decision that would give her a fresh new start in life. Marie-Claire decided it was time to bid farewell to her beloved homeland. She had always wanted to live abroad.

To smoothen her transition to a new life in America, Marie-Claire booked a cruise which would terminate in New York. It was all a part of her plan as the law firm recommended by her French attorney was based in the Big Apple.

On the one hand, the cruise afforded her the opportunity to reflect on her life thus far. On the other hand, the vivacious atmosphere and the uplifting social activities on the cruise ship enabled her to take frequent breaks from her introspection and let some sunshine into her life. It was the perfect balance that held her back from sliding into depression.

On a beautiful Saturday morning, Marie-Claire had gone to enjoy a swim and a sun bath on the sun deck of the cruise ship. Stretched out on her chaise lounge in a very brief two piece bikini and pair of sunglasses, the French divorcee soon lost track of time as she soaked up the early morning sun. She had found temporary refuge in the world so beautifully described in the Interracial Romance novel she was reading.

She was particularly fascinated by the heroine of the story, a very pretty African American attorney who found herself at the receiving end of the caustic tongue of her very wealthy and condescending female client who found her distractingly attractive.

“Uh... you might want to use some of that sun block before that beautiful skin turns to toast...”

Lifting up her head, she found the owner of the voice; it was a tall black woman with a very pretty face and an attractive shapely body to boot.

‘Oh my god!’ the voice in Marie-Claire’s head screamed as she realized she had been ogling the stranger. Her cheeks burned from the embarrassment of her rather girlish reaction to what appeared to be a friendly advice.

“Ah, um... Mercy... Thank you.” She fumbled for the right expression of her gratitude. But the stranger only laughed softly as she stepped even closer and picked up the bottle of sunscreen lotion Marie-Claire had right next to her.

“May I?” The stranger offered.

Marie-Claire merely nodded, she was way too stunned to speak.

“By the way, I am Cynthia...”

#4:       The Pain of Betrayal

Marie-Claire remembered the fateful evening her marriage effectively came to an end like it was yesterday. She had been running errands in the shopping districts of Paris all morning, and then as she had been feeling quite frisky that week, she had decided to give herself a treat even as she prepared to make herself irresistible for Antoine.

She had shopped for sexy lingerie, and then headed to an exclusive spa for a full treatment including waxing. She hadn’t wanted any disturbance so she switched off her cell phone. It was rather late when she finished and upon turning her cell phone back on, she got a voice message from her hubby.

Antoine had called to tell her he would be spending the night at the corporate suite that night. The message was a huge disappointment for the horny wife, but just as she was beginning to debate the choice of sex toys to employ as a means of salvaging the evening, an idea occurred to her.

‘Mmm... Why not surprise my husband dearest by just showing up at the suite...’

She reasoned the change of scene and her horde of sexy lingerie would help their flagging sexual connection as well. With her mind made up, she ran a couple more errands and then made her way to the suite.

As she would recall much later, it was as though the stars were aligned in favour of her finding out about her husband’s treachery. All the controls he must have put in place to deter her access to the suite unannounced failed.

Antoine had arrived much earlier to join his secretary who had arrived ahead of him. The manager had been called away on business, and the concierge on day shift had closed without adequately briefing his colleague who had arrived to relieve him for the night shift.

Alain, the night concierge knew and admired Madame Gaultier who had always been nice to him on the few occasions she had visited the suite with her husband. Without any hesitation, Alain had allowed her go right up to the suite.

Marie Claire had knocked on the door and then waited for it to be answered with sexiest come on look on her face. She never bargained for what she saw when the door swung open. Wearing nothing but a short silk robe that left very little to the imagination was Danielle, her husband 24 year old secretary.

‘Oh fuck, it’s so obvious I should have seen it all along...’

A Crack in the Wall (Thursday Taster #14)

A Cougar's Legacy

By

#3:       A Crack in the Wall

A couple of years earlier, Marie-Claire was a happily married woman or at least so she thought. The truth was a little murkier of course. The signs had been there a little longer than she allowed herself to acknowledge; her happy marriage was anything but.

It had all started with a cooling of her husband’s passion for her. Of course he had the classic excuse that men gave in such situations, the stress of work.

Despite their age difference, Marie-Claire had loved her husband Antoine very deeply. In the beginning he always said she was the centre of his world. She loved the maturity that her distinguished looking older husband brought to their lives.

While she was emotional and very passionate, Antoine was always more rational and subdued in his approach to issues. They had complemented each other well as a couple. That was probably why it hurt so deeply when the truth of her hubby’s philandering came to her knowledge.

Things had taken a different turn about three years earlier. Antoine started spending significantly more time away from home, when he wasn’t away on business trips, he worked late, or his meetings ran so late he would sleep in the corporate suite maintained by the company in the city.

Things were hardly better even when he was home; soon Marie-Claire realized Antoine just didn’t want to fuck as much anymore. Their love making became a matrimonial chore; he would typically have Marie-Claire on her back with the lights off, and no more than once every fortnight.

More often than not he would lose his erection halfway through the lack lustre performance and then he would make annoying excuses about how tired and stressed out he was from working so hard to keep the business afloat in the “prevailing unstable economic climate.”

‘Here we go again; marital sex meets economics at Davos,’ she usually thought even as she felt a deep rage simmer inside of her.

Things got so bad that she actually had orgasms only when he was away, thanks to her rich collection of sex toys.

Despite their difficulties in the bedroom however, Marie-Claire’s love for her husband remained strong, and the very idea of having an affair like some of her friends did remained firmly out of the question.

So abominable was the thought of sleeping with another man other than Antoine that she wouldn’t even fantasize about another man whilst masturbating, and slowly bringing herself to a fulfilling climax.

That wasn’t really a problem as she had always been curious about the idea of sleeping with another woman. It was in the embrace of her secret bi-curiosity that she found comfort for another year before the lid was finally blown on Antoine’s secret affair with his much younger secretary Danielle.
