Unfaithful Ties (8 page)

“What’s wrong with the way that I’m celebrating?”

“For starters, before I joined you, you were sitting here alone crying and listening to this insipid music. Life can’t be that bad. And if it is you need to add some adventure to your life. You’re young act like it. Do something spontaneous. Try something different.”

“Spontaneous” Lena chuckled, and then took another sip from her drink. Lena hadn’t done anything spontaneous in so long that she couldn’t remember it. So, she giggled at the thought of it and then surprisingly she told the woman something she hadn’t told a soul. “It wasn’t that long ago that I was a wealthy woman and now I’m on the verge of being broke” She blurted out, and felt good about it.

The woman’s smiled turned downward.

“Quit looking at me like that. I’ll be fine I hope. I’m not for anyone’s pity I just needed to get that off my chest. So let’s change the subject. What type of lawyer are you?”

“I’m a Criminal Defense Attorney”

“How long”

Chris smiled “Ten years”

“You must love what you do”

“Love it? I’m in love with it! Being a successful lawyer has always been my dream. What about you? What type of work do you do?”

“I own a realty company here called Prime Realty”

“I’m actually looking at buying a home that’s listed on your sight.”

“Oh really” Lena said, digging in her person. She handed Chris a business card. “Call me, I’ll be happy to show you the property.” Lena said, and then took another sip. “Are you from Atlanta?”

“I’m originally from Los Angeles. I came here to attend Emory.”

“So, you graduated from Emory?”

“Yep. Top of my class”

“That’s impressive”

“Nah. That’s not impressive by far. That was easy. What’s impressive is the fact that I haven’t lost one single case. My credentials will definitely guarantee that I make partner this year” she said, and finally took a deep swallow of her drink.

“Good luck”

“Thanks, but I don’t need luck” She said, “My work ethic speaks for itself”

“Damn you’re hubristic” Lena smiled. “I remember when I was that way”

“You should still be that way. So what you’re in a hole? Pull yourself out of it.”

“The hole that I’m in is a little bit too deep to climb out of”

“You’re a black woman. This is what we do. We pull ourselves out of impossible shit all the time. Have a little bit more faith in yourself than that.”

She had the most headstrong personality that Lena had ever witnessed. Everything about Chris was downright incredible. The woman’s demeanor was sexy. Lena was scared she’d never been electrified by a stranger before and she’d definitely never been turned on by a woman. She was sure that the Tequila was responsible for her thoughts. “You know what? You’re right, it’s my birthday and I should be celebrating.” Lena said, and raised her glass. “To my birthday, and your victory”

They clicked their flutes together, and both took a long swallow of their beverages. Over the next thirty minutes Chris had learned more about Lena than her husband knew. She’d also filled Lena in on her own journey. She’d told Lena that as a child she hopped around from foster home to foster home and family member to family member, after her dad was sent to prison back when she was thirteen. That her father
was set to be released from prison in two weeks. She’d never met her mother, her mother died given birth to her. Chris didn’t have any children and didn’t want any. She was a lesbian, had tried dating men but could never get into any of them. The last breakup that she had was very unpleasant and she’d decided to concentrate solely on her career every since.

Lena had spilled some very private details about her marriage as well. She informed Chris that Kenneth had quit a six-figure career, and how she felt as though the only thing that he cared about was catching criminals. She couldn’t believe how candid she was being with a woman that she’d only known for a few minutes. But she was happy that she had someone willing to listen to her with a sympathetic ear, so she told her everything. She even told her about her boring sex life. “My husband doesn’t go down on me and we haven’t had sex in years” She said, sluggishly.

“Maybe it’s just because he’s stressed about you guys being broke and all.”

“That’s not the problem. He has no idea that we’re broke and I don’t think you quite understand, my husband has never gone done on me”

“Your husband doesn’t know? When are you going to tell him?” Chris asked attempting to change the subject.

“I’ll tell him soon enough. That’s not what I want to talk about right now though. I said my husband has never gone down on me” She’d had one to many cocktails and now her words were slurred. “So what are you going to do about it?”

Chris was shocked and her widened mouth and eyes proved it. “I think that you’ve had a little too much to drink”

“Tell me how is it. How does making love to another woman feel?”

“It’s not just about sex. I’m emotionally and spiritually closer to women. So for me it’s good because I’m drawn to women. Sexual attraction is about more than the act of sex it’s about the person you’re doing it with, and if you’re not a lesbian, having sex with another woman is going to be uncomfortable to you and you’re not going to enjoy it.”

“Well you said that I should be more spontaneous. I want something that I’ve never had before. I want oral sex. That’s what women that sleep around with other women do right? You said that I should learn to try different things. So, I want to try something different. I want to walk out of this bar, get on the elevator, check into a suite and experience the delight of making love with a woman.”

“I didn’t say step into an entire new world of sexuality. Once you step into my world you may not ever want to be with a man again. And I just don’t want to be responsible for breaking up a marriage.”

“Look if my marriage ends, there is only one person that’s going to be held accountable for it, me.” She said, shoving her thumb into her chest and trying not to sound as frustrated as she actually was. “Let me worry about my marriage. And besides it’ll just be this once. Are you going to make it happen or not?”

“If that’s what you want, it’s fine with me. I’ve been attracted to you since I walked in here and saw you sitting here alone crying your eyeballs out.”

“Is this your first time doing something like this?”

“Yes, I can’t say that I’ve met a woman and had sex with her in the same day before”

“I’m nervous as shit. This will be my first time being with a woman, and the first time I’ve made love to someone other than my husband.” Lena smirked. “My stomach has more butterflies than Calloway Garden”

“Are you sure you want to do this?”

“I’m sure. The butterflies will settle I’m always nervous when I’m about to do something different.”

“Because once it happens you can’t take it back. Make sure that you’re okay with that”

Lena was starting to doubt whether or not she should go through with it, but couldn’t back out now. “Well I don’t know you and you don’t me, so if I end up regretting it I don’t have to worry about ever seeing you again.” She quickly swallowed down the rest of her cocktail. “I’m down”

Lena got up from the booth grabbed her belongings and followed Chris to the elevator. She was in trouble when she agreed to accompany her alone in an empty room, and she was in even deeper trouble now that they were alone on the elevator. It was no turning back now. When the elevator started escalating the fantasy of her allowing Chris to taste her juices as her moisture flowed caused her hardened dime sized nipples to pierce visibly through her blouse. Right there in the elevator Chris cornered her into the wall and slid her hand up her blouse, played with her nipples and squeezed her breast. “I can’t wait to taste your pussy” She moaned in Lena’s ear. “I can’t wait to make you come like no man ever has” Lena’s nipples were hard. Electricity had shot straight through her spine. This was different.  She’d never seen foreplay depicted so tenderly before, and she desired, hungered, and longed for more. Chris had turned her onto something new with just a simple touch, and she loved it.

****

Her dripping flesh was sticky. Tasted like the sweetest candy that’d ever surfaced Chris’s taste pores. Watermelon. Yeah, watermelon was the flavor. Her nipples were dark, at least four shades darker than her skin, they looked like two quarter sized black marbles dipped in vanilla. Sucking them made Chris wish she could feel them anytime she wanted. Looking into Lena’s eyes she could tell that she was introducing her to a new world of ecstasy, a new world of merriment, a new world that she’d fallen in love with and probably wouldn’t be able to walk away from.

They were butt naked and entangled in a pyre of delectation, in room 1530. Curiosity and temptation covered the lustful scent of sin with searing hormones, passion, perspiration, and soft pleasant utters. Chris could tell that Lena’s husband hadn’t made her feel this way before. She backed her knees down the sheets until she felt the friction between Lena’s legs. Her pussy was piping hot, as they began gyrating pelvis to pelvis. Then she finger fucked her slowly. When Lena’s head fell back into the pillow.  She knew that the stimulation that she’d introduced to her was pleasant. Satisfying. And so damn good. She smiled as Lena’s belated orgasms ruptured all over her fingertips. It was that very moment that she knew she had her. “My husband can’t make me feel like this” Lena confessed, and what Chris had felt since the two of them had stepped onto the elevator had been confirmed. Soon enough Lena would be begging her for more on a daily basis.

Chris’s tongue became synchronized with Lena’s vagina, and made the sweetest music she’d ever heard. She’d spread Lena’s pussy lips wide and ran laps around her clitoris with her pussy hungry tongue. Encircling it, nibbling it, and licking it like a dog drinking water. Her ultimate pleasure was the fact that she was on the giving end. “No one else will ever eat your pussy like this” She whispered.

It was so stimulating that Lena couldn’t speak. Her body quaked every time Chris enclosed her mouth around her sensitive pearl. The anticipation of the tongue inserting her vagina intensified her desire, and she smiled each time she felt the warmth of breath, breathing on it. It was the thrill of knowing what was coming next.

A handful of Chris’s locks were clutched into Lena’s hand, as she released the incredible feeling that she’d been hiding in the pit of her stomach. Another orgasm spilled.

By this time Lena was on edge and with every flick of Chris’s tongue she begged for more. During every grope of her labia she moaned and screamed for more. Wanted more. Needed more.  Her whole body quivered, her clit throbbed, and her juices flowed like a stream. At that moment she knew! She knew that she was hooked on Chris and all that Chris could do to her. Never before had she climaxed like that, didn’t know it was possible at all, all she knew was that she loved it and craved more.

For the next thirty minutes they pleasured each other enjoying every slurp, every nibble,  and every lick. This was new to Lena but her actions stated otherwise. She opened up and did whatever came naturally. All her life and even earlier that evening she’d doled out judgment on same sex relationships and now she’d committed the same sin. Chris had welcomed Lena into a new world of intimacy, and now that it was over she wished that they could do it all over again. And she didn’t regret anything that had just happened.

Lena had fallen asleep and was snuggled closely against Chris when her ringing cellular startled her. (Mama) by Boys II Men was blasting through the speaker. Quickly she rose to her feet and started shrugging her clothing back on.

“Shit, I forgot about my son” She panicked.

Chris had eased up against the headboard. “Where is he?”

“He’s at school. I was supposed to pick him up from school by seven” She looked at her watch it was 8 o’clock.
And nearly dark. “Shit” she said, and answered her phone.

“Hey boo”

“Mom, where are you?”

“I’m on the way. I got held up at work.” She was searching for her car keys. “I’ll be there in a few minutes boo”

By now Chris had wrapped herself in the bed sheets and was sitting in the leather armchair over by the door. She didn’t want Mckhi to hear her speaking in the background so she whispered, “I don’t think that you should drive” as she sat there watching her antsy adulteress run around the room in a frenzy.

“Mom hurry I’m the only kid here. I’ve been calling you since 7 o’clock.”

“I’ll be fine” She whispered back. “I’m hurrying. How was practice? I’ll call you” She mumbled to Chris and rushed out of the suite.

“Mom it wasn’t practice. It was the first game of the season.” He said sadly.

Lena felt horrible. “I’m so sorry baby, Time slipped away from me. I didn’t realize it had gotten so late.” She said and stepped onto the elevator.

“I scored two touch downs. Coach Donahue says that I’m a star in the making”

“Well you’re already a star in my eyes”

“He’s not talking about that kind of star mom. He says that with practice and age I have the potential to be a professional athlete one day.”

“Alright that’s my main man. Momma is raising a millionaire in the making.”
