Eight PM Saturday evening….
“Sweet Jesus.” Mack spoke softly underneath his breath. Mary looked amazing. She had told him about her knockout dress but it was better than he ever imagined. She had not let him see it before tonight. Mary said it was special, like a wedding dress. Tonight she was honeymooning with her husband and another man and she wanted to impress them both. It was sexy. The mermaid shape enhanced her figure and made her body walk and talk as she moved. The deep V-front gave her cleavage to die for. With no bra, her breasts moved independently as she walked; her blood-red pendant was an invitation for men to examine it closely and it gave those same men a ready-made excuse when they were caught looking to see if her nipples were exposed. The split-front of her dress allowed her entire leg to be draped and framed with every movement. Those killer lace-up shoes made the look complete.
Mary teased Mack when she said, “That look on your face is all I need to know about how I look tonight.”
Mack swallowed awkwardly. “Damn. I have no words. No words to tell you how beautiful you look.”
He was intrigued by the asymmetric cut. There could not be more than 12 inches of fabric between the deep V of her top and the V of the split for her legs. Not her usual style, but this was a special night. He wondered if she would be showing anything when she sat. His cock stirred a bit at the thought of her exposure.
Mary gave Mack a come-hither look. It sizzled in the air. She looked Mack over. “Mack, you haven’t looked this good since we were married. And whatever scent it is that you are wearing makes me wet. What is it?”
“Amen is the name.”
“Amen to that scent. I just want to get closer to you.“
“It is always an experience to do something with John. Isn’t it? That man is incredible. He knows me so well and he knows what I will like and, apparently, what you like as well. He said you would love this.”
“I do,” cooed Mary as she turned to check herself out in the mirror.
She decided to wear a panty after all. It was tempting to wear a thong to avoid a panty line but it lacked the romance of a fine lace panty. She did not know this dress nor how the seating might be in The Prohibition Bar. Her dark panty itself lent a mystery about where her dress ended and her panty began. For John, she had scented her wheat and panty with Chanel No 5. The perfume was a gift from Mack for their anniversary last year. It was a sinful and appropriate way to re-gift the Chanel to John. She turned back to Mack, satisfied no panty line was showing.
“Cameras set?”
“Yes”
Mary walked over to Mack and gave him a hug. “Mack, sometimes it is the little things that impress me and I have to tell you how impressed I am with you today. You were attentive to all the things that would make this special for us. It was important to me that we were doing this together and that you felt the same way I did. You showed me that you did. Thank you.”
“Me too, Mare. Together. This is the way I hoped it would be and it is. I think we will have a good time with John. If for some reason, we aren’t, we will just call it a night and have M&M time.”
Mack kissed her and his kiss validated their relationship. Mary felt it. Mack did, too.
“I am ready. Did you want to call John?”
John answered, spoke briefly, and signaled George. “George, could you arrange for three chairs at the bar? I will return in a few minutes with friends. If anyone surrenders their seats, I will pay for their evening. And, George, I mean dinner and drinks for all of them. And at nine, could you move us to a table? Extend the same consideration to anyone who gives up their table.”
George nodded. “I will take care of this,sir.”
John rose and walked across the room to the elevator. A number of men and women turned to look. They wondered who he was. His manner told them he was one of them but they did not know him and that was unusual. No one knew him except the mature couple in the corner table. They smiled and touched each other. She was elegantly dressed and he was Mediterranean chic. Both were tanned beyond Mipple City standards. Her necklace and charm bracelet sparkled when she moved. Her anklet did the same whenever she crossed or uncrossed her legs. Her chest was impressive; her legs inviting. Her husband matched her physical beauty and he was eye candy for every woman in the room. She placed her hand upon her husband’s and leaned into him to say something as John entered the elevator.
John did not notice them. If he had, he would have stopped to say hello and ask how they were doing. The three of them were old friends.
Downstairs John knocked softly on Mack and Mary’s door. Mack opened and the two men hugged each other with affection.
“Did I see you on the cover of GQ last month?” John teased Mack.
“John, this is the best damn suit I’ve ever worn.“
“John, I can tell you that this is the best I have seen him look since we were married. He looks amazing, doesn’t he?”
“He does and, Mary, you are ravishing. Mack and I might need a couple of muscle men to help us keep other men away. Those heels with the satin lace closure really make you look sexy.”
“Thanks, John. You’re looking pretty good, too.”
“Are you both ready to go upstairs? Do you have any questions?”
Mary looked at Mack and then towards John. “We don’t. We just want to have a nice time.”
John looked around the room. “Everything set for later?”
“Yes. All set.”
As they walked towards the elevator, John added a comment on walking together. “That’s a good stride for Mary. Not too fast. Think of all the 1940's ballroom movies with Fred Astaire and project that casual walk and look. Perfect. We look like a trio out for the evening. That is the way we want to look.“
Mack pressed the button and they waited for the doors to open. “I kind of thought Mary would be sandwiched between us, holding our arms or something.”
“Yes, whenever we are going up or down a set of stairs or we are on uneven ground, we will offer our arms as support for Mary. In more formal settings, we would offer our arms for a promenade or long walk but that would be overdoing it here.”
“Got it.”
“Is it always a teachable moment with you, John?” Mary asked.
“No, but if it enhances the experience of the moment, I will share it.”
The elevator door opened and they stepped inside. John pressed the button for the 27th floor.
“The dress code is Dress to Impress. We will fit right in.”
George saw them as the doors opened. He put it all together when he saw them exit. Two men and one woman. They moved in unison out of the elevator and headed toward the bar. He met them halfway. It was difficult for George to comprehend how Mary could look more beautiful tonight than she did on Monday but she certainly did.
“George has a place for us at the bar to start but later he will find us a table.“
George motioned them towards the bar and signaled the keeper.
They glided towards the bar in a casual elegant style. Heads turned their way. They stood close to each other with Mary in the middle. Mack ordered a Cosmo for Mary and Chivas Manhattan Martinis for John and himself. John ordered the Oysters Rockefeller and crostini to be brought up from Manny’s downstairs.
The trio surveyed the room as they waited for drinks. The décor was more modern than the name led you to believe. Not a smoky speakeasy as some of the Prohibition Era bars were in other areas of the country.
The Prohibition Bar had a mid-sized crowd tonight. Not quite standing room only but there were not too many tables available either. Not as elegant as Manny’s but the views of the city, with its mix of upper class professionals, made it an attractive venue for successful women and men. Young lawyers and accountants of both sexes mixed with an older, moneyed, country club set. The music was predominantly turn of the century.
When the keeper brought their drinks, Mack put one hand on the back of Mary’s neck and gently caressed it. His raised his glass with the other and waited for Mary and John to do the same.
“His Naughty Little Wife Enjoys Kisses and Caresses and Pleasures His Friend Secretly.” Mack repeated the phrase from John’s PDA email.
John tilted his glass towards Mary with a twinkle in his eye. ”His Naughty Lustful Wife Enjoys Kisses and Caresses…”
Mary tilted hers in return and held John’s eyes while finishing the line. “… and then Pleasures His Friend Secretly.”
They took sips and John asked, “Are you ready to fall in love, Mary?” She nodded. John took Mary’s hands and looked deeply into her eyes. She returned the look. “Four minutes, Mary, and we will be in love. Mack, please keep an eye on the time.”
Mack removed his hand from the back of her neck and checked his new watch. Mary and John held their gaze. The email from John about PDA included a technique for creating an intimate experience. It had been on television a few years previously about how gazing into another person’s eyes could make them fall in love with each other. It wasn’t quite true although John had teased her about it being an intimate experience. Mary knew that looking into John’s eyes for four minutes could never be as intimate as John removing and replacing her underwear at Mall of America, nor as intimate as having John on the telephone while Mack and she had sex. Mary could easily look into John’s eyes for four minutes and if John thought it would help with intimacy, well, why not.
Mack was supportive when Mary told him what John had proposed. “In for a pound, Mare,” he had said.
It was awkward to start. Should she stare? When John blinked, she knew she could, too. At first it was difficult to not be distracted by people in the background, but Mary focused on the shape of John’s eyes, the color, and the way the muscles around his eyes moved. In the second minute, Mary noticed the fine details of his skin and lashes before she fell deeply into his pupils. She wondered what John was seeing in her eyes. He might notice that she liked him. She trusted him; that had to be obvious.
She held his gaze. Her brain thought of her experiences with John this week: the flirting, the messaging, and the sharing of intimate information. In the third minute, her eye-gazing flooded her brain with images of John as she had seen him in all their previous meetings. She remembered how he looked in his Hugo’s at the dinner challenge and how he and Mack performed that runway turn. All the pleasant and erotic moments cascaded and tumbled about inside her. She was Pachinko-thinking again, waiting for those little balls to drop into the right slot. She could not help it. The tiny little muscles around her eyes signaled her feelings. She pressed her lips together and swallowed. Could John sense how much she cared about him at that moment? She hoped he did. And when those little Pachinko balls fell into their slots, her feelings of affection for John multiplied. He should know how she felt about him; her eyes softened and defocused. With a look that smoldered, she expressed her affection towards him.
John’s eyes softened a little, too, She knew he was feeling the same: reciprocity, feedback, communication, and connection. There was intimacy with John. Mary’s heart began to connect the intimacy dots. She had always felt close to him, hadn’t she? Hadn’t she kissed him after dinner to feel what his body was like when it touched hers? Hadn’t she taken his challenge to remove her underwear and send him a picture? Hadn’t she dressed for him in her bustier and leggings? It wasn’t for Emil, Emil was simply an excuse to dress as she wished for John. And having John listen to her in bed with Mack, wasn’t that a sign of intimacy between them? And then there was yesterday’s shopping trip and him removing her underwear and later studying her in the changing room. She had been emotionally intimate with him all week. Not in love, of course, she was in love with her husband. But she desired John in the naughtiest of ways. The kind of ways that Mack had aroused in her when they had first been intimate.
“Time,“ Mack announced softly.
Mary took her hands out of John’s. She felt like kissing John, but she felt vulnerable. Turning towards Mack, Mary placed her hands around his neck. She kissed him deeply and lovingly. Mack was delighted. He was counting coup on John again. Mary was choosing him after looking into John’s eyes. In a way, he was right about counting coup.
John felt the connection with Mary, too. He knew Mary wanted to kiss him but chose to kiss Mack instead. Mack was her protector, and she wanted protection from the feelings she had for John. John understood this. It was her nature. It was all good as far as John was concerned.
After her kiss with Mack, Mary turned towards John and pressed herself into him.
John relaxed and let Mary experience him. Mack had no objection. This is what PDA is all about.
John held Mary with one hand on the back of her head and then slid his other hand down her back. He traced the contour of her ass before slowly pulling her into his hip to let her feel him from knees to neck.
Small groups of people began to glance their way. Who was with whom? The women were the first to glance and the men were the first to observe. What was happening at the bar?
Mary then turned around to face the room and nestled back into John. She took his hands and pulled his arms around her waist. She held them under her breasts, allowing him to hug her from behind. Life was good. She felt his erection rise and she shifted her weight to let John know that she knew he was aroused. This was pleasant and she liked it. John nuzzled her neck.
Mary’s eyes sparkled. “That was fun.” Mack smiled from ear to ear and John nodded approvingly.
“How many did we get?” she continued.
Mack counted on his fingers. “Five?” Mack offered.
“Probably five.” John smiled. These two were a great couple. “But it is not the quantity of PDA that counts, it’s the pageantry, the showmanship of it, and the seductive quality of the PDA. This is working well. There were quite a few people looking our way; discreetly, of course”
“Well, I liked it and I want more PDA.” With John’s arms around her waist and under her breasts, Mary let one of her hands wander behind her until it was between her butt and John’s member. She held her palm outward. “Bump my hand, John. What do they call it when the man bumps his cock into a woman on buses or standing in line? En coxa something?”
John smiled. Like many people, Mary thought of encoxada as a flirty game of a man using his cock to touch an unsuspecting person. He decided to explain the complications of encoxada to Mary some other time. It wasn’t as flirty as she might think. Mary was really more interested tonight in the secret touching that lovers do. That was fine with John and he bumped his member against Mary’s hand. She opened her palm more for him. John bumped her softly and maneuvered his member discreetly to tease her hand. She did the same to tease him, too. His member was erect and even in his Papi’s, he tented the front of his trousers. She felt it.
Some of the patrons noticed the hip bumping and alternated their eyes between the conversations they were having and the affectionate group at the bar.
“This can work two ways, Mare.” John opened his hands palms up and pressed them under Mary’s breast. “Does this remind you of the tits on the table flirt?”
Mary relaxed and let her tits drop into John’s hands. The she straightened herself and dropped her tits again. This was a more kinky kind of PDA. Looking over the room, Mary wondered how long she could do this without being noticed. Not too long, she thought. It was delicious though. She wished he would simply massage them. She wanted him, too, but that might be too much. She thought how sexy it might be for a little nipple play but that might be better left for later.
Mack was amused. Mary was flirty in a public place. That had not happened since forever. A few women and men had turned their chairs to improve their view of the bar.
“This is very hot. Can I get in on this?”
Mary disconnected from John’s arms and pressed her body into Mack’s. “Mack, give me a full body hug. Touch my butt, John.”
As Mack held Mary in his arms and hugged her close, John traced a pattern across her butt. He let his fingers explore her lower cheeks before pressing into the space between her thighs. Those who were watching the PDA of this power trio were amazed at the openness of the affection between them.
For Andreas and Jennifer Anastassakis seated at the corner table across the room, this triggered a fond memory of their adventure a few years earlier. “Help me out, I can’t remember the phrase,” Jennifer whispered.
Andreas leaned in and kept his voice low. “‘His Naughty Lustful Wife Pleasures His Friend; Enjoying Kisses, Touches, and Caresses’ ...or something similar, I think. There may have been the word ‘Secret’ in there, too.”
Jennifer started ticking items off her fingers. “Holding hands, Necking, Linking arms, Waist hugging, Playfulness, Heartfelt, Finger Play, Eye Gazing, Kissing, Secret Touching, and Caressing. I’m surprised I remember all the possibilities.”
Andreas reached towards her hands and his soft brown eyes looked into the bright blue of Jennifer’s. “I have not forgotten. I try to do some of them whenever we are in public.“
“Now I’m embarrassed. I should have put two and two together. You are always affectionate in public. It has been a long time since we played these games together.”
“As long as you put us two together, that is all that matters.”
“Stop it… or I will fall in love with you all over again.”
“It is something I look forward to every day.”
Jennifer blinked back the wetness in her eyes. If it had not been for John, she would never have kept Andreas and she would not have such a good marriage. Her heart went out to the woman and the man with John. They were in good hands whatever was happening. She wondered if the woman shared; her husband was very good looking.
Andreas noticed the look in his wife’s eye. “Would you like to experience him?”
“I don’t know him so it is not possible to tell really. Would you mind if I did?”
“No. I was thinking though that you might want to. He is handsome.”
“And her? Would you like to experience her?”
“In Minneapolis, no. I am with you and that is enough for me. Perhaps on Rhodes; she would like the island and the Palladium, I think.”
Jennifer studied Mary and Mack for a moment before looking at John again. It had been five years and her affection towards him remained. Of course, Andreas was her husband and he held center stage in the theater of her heart but she would happily arrange a "will call" ticket whenever John wanted. Andreas would support her in that, too. It was John who taught Andreas that Jennifer was not unfaithful when she experienced other men. John taught Andreas how to read Jennifer in ways that no one else could. She gave her time and her efforts to making a good life for Andreas. She was a good wife. Every decision she made, every purchase she made, every home improvement project she planned, every thought of hers was to improve their lives as a couple. This is how she expressed her love for Andreas. John had shown him that. When Jennifer and Andreas were establishing a relationship, John had told Andreas quite clearly that Jennifer would never cheat on him; however, she would experience other men. Cheating, John had said, is when a person chooses to have a secret relationship.
“Jennifer will never have a secret relationship,” John once said. “Because she loves you, she will tell you before or after she has sex with another man. She does not want a secret relationship to come between the two of you. If you pay attention you will see that Jennifer has an affinity for some types of men. She will surrender her body to other men but once she has fully experienced the other man, she will be exclusive to you again. This is her nature. You should accept it. If you wish to be married to a woman who will dedicate her life to you, you should propose to Jennifer. Just be patient when her biology causes her to experience other men. If you absolutely must have fidelity from your wife, then go find another woman. However, if you wish for a woman who loves you and whose every thought is how to improve your lives together, she is the one for you.“
Andreas made his choice a week later and married Jennifer within the year. Jennifer had four affairs in the past five years and Andreas knew about each of them. The first was difficult for him and they had long talks about it. The others were not so difficult because of the time spent talking about the first one.
It was Jennifer’s nature to improve their lives. She helped Andreas build an estate, helped him in his business, bore his children, and gave purpose to his life. She knew what Andreas needed and she brought him friends and, at times, other women to improve him. It wasn’t always about sex, but sex was always involved with the women. Jennifer made Andreas a better man. Jennifer was special. She belonged to Andreas, and he owed it all to John.
Jennifer held Andreas’ hand. “If she freshens her make-up, I might introduce myself.“
She crossed her legs and her anklet sparkled from the five charms attached. Andreas was fairly sure that she would add a sixth one soon. She turned her attention back to the threesome at the bar and watched as they indulged in PDA. He was handsome and she was beautiful, what’s not to like?
Mary kept her arms around Mack’s neck and playfully teased his hair with her fingers. John moved his hips against Mary’s ass and pressed her into Mack’s hips. Gently sandwiched between the two men, John caressed her from her shoulders down to her thighs feeling the mermaid shape of her. Mary felt the luxury of two men’s attention and liked it. She eventually broke her kiss from Mack and John backed away. She sat on the tall chair and faced the mirror behind the bar. She looked regal and she raised an appreciative eyebrow at her reflection and at her two men.
John and Mack surveyed the bar and the room for any sign of trouble. Protectors and providers, it was the nature of both. They knew that their attention with Mary could not have gone unnoticed. Was it safe?
They caught a few women and men looking their way and smiled at them. Satisfied there was no problem, Mack turned to John. “How much trouble can we get into?”
“As long as we are not vulgar or nude, the Prohibition Bar is more liberal in its acceptance of PDA than most. Nudity is prohibited; vulgarity is a little more difficult to understand objectively, but it is frowned upon. No simulated sex acts, of course, no chair dances. You might see a woman flash her breasts or show she is commando, but please know that a flash does not mean she can be vulgar or repetitive about it. Dressing to impress is the standard for The Prohibition Bar and there is a lot already being shown... but there are limits to behavior.”
