"40 – 30."
Even before she announced the score I knew I was down match point. I also knew she was going to hit her wicked lefty slice serve out wide again. I'd swung at it for two sets now, and even after seeing it so many times I still seemed to catch the ball on the end of my racket as it arced away from me. Every time. Though my backhand return had been going in it had little pace and put Kristine in a winning position. I took an extra step into the alley as she made her toss, knowing she couldn't see me do it as her eyes were on the ball. This time would be different. I'd drive it back deep, and...
When I heard "whack" instead of the "swish" of the slice I knew it was over. As I leapt to my right I saw the ball from her flat serve kiss both lines of the tee and rocket past my flailing racket.
Aced.
Her "Nice match, Mark," as we shook hands was less smug than I'd expected. I had won four games in the second set – twice as many as I'd managed in the first – and, as Kristine had played division one college tennis at Pepperdine, I knew my efforts had actually been quite decent. But still she'd beaten me. Twice today. I hoped for a better result when we negotiated over dinner.
In the shower I reviewed all that had happened, and went over my new, revised plan. I'd been sandbagged at the meeting. The sizeable sale I'd been led to expect – with just a few minor details to work out, hence the meeting – evaporated in the first minute when Kristine Danson, Assistant CEO of AmmaCorp, began to propose terms – very favorable to her side – for the lease of the water purification devices I'd expected to sell. I struggled to catch up, to comprehend and then react to what Kristine was saying. It became clear that John Franklin, CEO of WaterPure and my boss, who was probably too drunk to come to the meeting – it was after lunch, so he'd had his usual five martinis – had OK'd the change to leasing the machines but somehow neglected to tell me. His email conveying his assent was in the ream of papers Kristine had handed me and our lawyer upon entering the room.
"Page seven, Mark. You can see it's all settled." Kristine's voice betrayed amusement at my consternation.
Not knowing what the hell else John might have agreed to, I dug in my heels, taking time to dissect and question each and every aspect of Kristine's proposals, and finally succeeded in running out the clock. When the meeting had to end and we weren't done, Kristine suggested that we continue, just the two of us, over dinner that night. We'd work out the few remaining details before the signing meeting tomorrow at 10 AM. And maybe play some tennis – John had told her I played – beforehand. 6:00 PM at her club. Bring a coat and tie as the dining room was formal. It was settled.
In truth I hadn't minded. Not a bit. Kristine was hot. Maybe sporting five years more than my thirty-two, she was gorgeous in the way some women are who seem to get more arresting and sensual with every year. Five-nine, slim, athletic, streaked blonde hair, beguiling blue eyes, concave cheeks, and full lips that became sultry whenever she wanted. Svelte and shapely were apt descriptors, and she moved with the grace of a professional dancer.
The Ahi tuna – I let her order for me, as it was her club and she wanted to – was delicious, and though I tried to fight for the check I lost again. I'd done better in the surprisingly brief negotiations, at least getting an acceptable lease rate, and after we reached agreement Kristine had become very friendly, seductive even, her voice low and sensuous when she shared little nothings and laughed at my bon mots. By the end she was looking deeply into my eyes and touching me offhandedly and frequently, making clear her intentions.
I was entranced and aroused by this assertive, alluring cougar. It had been a month since Lucy had announced she'd fallen in love and moved out, pending our signing her lawyer's no-fault divorce paperwork. Even before she'd left our sex life had been nil, probably because Lucy was already in love with Mary, and had been for some time. Though stunned by her gender preference transformation, I had been reasonable about the separation – Lucy was a good mother and our children loved and needed her – and we were going to share time with the kids, details to be determined later. But I missed sex, a lot, and was intrigued by where this might lead. Where Kristine was leading me.

"Oh please, dear God, not again," I thought desperately as her hand slid between the mattress and my stomach and her fingers wrapped round my limp, still oozing, pummeled penis.
The dam that had barely managed to hold back the torrent – first of simmering, then seething sexual tension, which boiled over when Kristine announced in the elevator that she was on the pill and certified disease free; was I? (I was) – that dam burst as soon as the door to her suite closed. We were at each other like Greco-Roman wrestlers, except there was abundant grabbing below the waist. On one such foray, her fingers deftly downed my zipper and captured my cock. I'd been hard and dripping since those same fingers had first brushed the back of my hand at dinner, and her thumb spread my clear fluid over the head as she whispered, "Come," and tugged me into her bedroom. Our clothes were jettisoned willy nilly and once we were both nude her blue eyes twinkled in the darkness as she shoved me onto the bed, mounted me and slid down, adroitly scooping my erection into her using only her vulva.
Then she fucked me. Relentlessly. Her vagina, tantalizingly wet and hot, felt like a tight silk glove, caressing every cell of my penis as she expertly slid up and down its length. Her soft, succulent breasts perfectly filled my hands and her hard nipples pushed back against my thrumming thumbs. As she rode me hard I tried assiduously to hold back the boiling fluid being inexorably drawn out of my balls, pooling for its final surge. I struggled mightily and, despite the wild eroticism of being fucked by this gorgeous, wanton woman, I managed to stem the tide until she trembled and shook, crying, "Oh, oh, oh, OH!" as she came. Kristine collapsed down on me, shaking and moaning, and her gasps and whimpers in my ear, her shapely breasts poking their hard nipples into my chest, and the rhythmic contractions of her orgasming pudendum yanked me over the edge. I arched, thrusting and heaving, each time her tight, hot vagina squeezed and slid on my cock, milking it, over and over, dragging out every last drop of my semen.
As I lay panting, stunned by the magnitude of my orgasm, she rolled off me and whispered, "God, Mark, that was so good." When Kristine just lay still on her back beside me, motionless except for the heaving of her chest as she caught her breath, I felt a pang. Was that it? Is she done?
