The Courting of Anita Caples
Chapter 01
Anita Caples stood naked in front of her full-length dressing mirror. She turned slowly, critically examining the 54-year-old woman gazing back at her. She thought she looked old and fat. Her breasts, once full and pendulous in her youth, now sagged.
If they get any bigger, she thought, they will have to add a letter to the alphabet for her to find a bra size that fits.
Her abdomen was decidedly round, her hips were broad, and her butt had a decided oval shape.
Lord, what had happened to my body?
Anita had never been a small girl. Throughout her life, she struggled with her weight. When her husband Ed was alive, they would go for walks together and occasionally jog. Her heart ached as she recalled her loss.
Next week, five years after Ed's death, she was marrying Carl Dreisson, a decent enough guy. They met two years ago. At first, she was distant. She was still grieving Ed. Eventually, after much encouragement from her son and friends, she agreed to go out with him.
Somehow, after two years of dating and lackluster sex, she agreed to marry him. She couldn't recall him asking. At some point, it was assumed.
A profound sadness filled her heart. Life was so unjust. Ed passed away from a massive heart attack just as they had reached the sweet spot of their lives.
Their twenty-five-year-old son Allen was offered a major promotion. He moved across the country to accept a good-paying job and start his life.
While her husband was thrilled to see their son thrive in corporate life, Anita felt devastated as she watched her only child leave the nest. In some ways, her bond with her son was stronger than the one she shared with her husband.
Ed was devoted to his career, leaving Anita to raise their son. They bonded over camping trips and shared a passion for sports. She was assigned the task of teaching sex education. Those awkward lessons created an unusually close bond between mother and son. They could and did discuss the intimate details of their lives.
Shortly after Allen moved away, Ed had a mild heart attack. It caused him to review his life priorities. He realized that, as empty nesters, they should explore the next chapter of their lives.
Their sex life took a significant upswing. They embarked on an exploration of their sexuality. They started to delve into the bedroom fantasies that all couples talk about, but most never do.
They eschewed the marital bed. The floor in front of the TV was one of their hot spots. They would play porn on their 75" flat screen and pretend they were in the scene with the actors.
They assembled an extensive array of sex toys. Their favorites were the ones where they could simulate threesome sex with a vibrating dildo in Anita's pussy while she sucked Ed's dick.
They became more adventurous and discovered hidden spots on their walks and jogs in the nearby park to make love.
Anita smiled wanly as she recalled when a man walking his dog discovered them in flagrante delicto. In fact, it was the dog that caught them. Her smile widened as she remembered Ed's yelp of surprise when the dog's cold, wet nose touched his bare backside. The owner followed the dog.
She and Ed were stark naked in the woods and doing it doggy style. Anita reached back and touched her ass. They were really into it that day. Ed had spanked her bare ass so hard and so often, it took a few days before she could sit comfortably.
She giggled as she recalled the startled man mumbling apologies and backing away. She and Ed kept fucking after the man left. They naughtily suggested that they should have invited him to join them. That incident led to pillow talk about their recurring fantasies of bringing another person into their bed. It was all fantasy until they decided to take a lifestyle cruise.
They surfed the internet in search of a site where they could connect with others and indulge their fantasies. They came across a website promoting adult cruises that offer a unique experience with like-minded individuals. The cruises featured clothing-optional areas, theme nights, and other adult activities.
She smiled as she recalled meeting the Andersons on that 7-day Caribbean cruise. They met on the bus to the embarkation dock.
Julie Anderson was a bubbly 47-year-old redhead. Anita recalled being jealous of the slender, big-tit, green-eyed vixen.
Julie took charge. She instructed the husbands, Tom and Ed, to sit together while the girls got to know each other. Anita smiled, remembering how annoyed she used to be at the incessant chatter of this attractive pre-senior. Little did she know that the four of them would become fast friends and lovers.
While they were on the cruise, they had their first experience with partner swapping. Anita recalled the terrifying moment when the first cock other than her husband's entered her pussy. To add to the moment, Julie was naked in the bed next to her, riding Ed's cock.
Toward the end of the cruise, they attended their first swapping party. By this time, Anita considered herself a connoisseur of cocks, having had two other than Ed's.
After the cruise, the four of them regularly swapped partners. During those halcyon years, the two couples explored all aspects of their sexuality.
In addition to same-room sex, where they shared a bed with their spouses, they would go out to an event and swap partners for the night. Julie would spend the night with Ed, and Anita went home with Tom. It added another level to their relationship.
Tom and Ed tried sucking each other's cocks. They decided that in the heat of the moment, it was okay, but they didn't want a constant diet of cocksucking.
Julie and Anita, on the other hand, discovered they enjoyed eating each other's pussy as much as they enjoyed fucking each other's husbands! Primarily, as the men grew older and experienced some performance issues, watching the women engage in intimate moments became a regular feature of their meetings.
Tears streamed down her face as she flashed back to that terrible phone call from Tom. He and Ed were playing golf when Ed had a massive heart attack. She was ashamed that those days after his death were an emotional blur. Julie and Tom took charge until her son arrived from the West Coast.
Even after Allen arrived, Julie was always there. She and Allen bonded as they made the arrangements, answered the calls, and supported her through the hardest thing she had ever done. She watched her one true love being buried.
In the days following the funeral, Julie had practically moved in. She cooked, cleaned, cajoled, and finally, in exasperation, threatened as she tried to pull her longtime friend and lover from despair.
However, her grown son, her 30-year-old only child, finally brought her out of the depths.
Anita had begun sleeping on the couch. She could not bear to sleep in her marital bed because the sense of loss there was too intense.
