Loosening Up Bk. 02 Ch. 15-20

Dave hugged her, "Everyone chips in. We rotate duties so nobody gets stuck in a job they don't like. We were doing it weekly, but it was too chaotic. Now, we change jobs once a month. It's easier to keep track of. Individuals do trade jobs back and forth, for instance if they're away as I was last week. I'm also on the board. Last week, Alice picked up my slack for being away from my kitchen duties. I owe her, and I'll make it up some way. She's on grocery duty this week, so I'll probably go in her place to shop on Saturday to repay her."

Alice joined the pair, putting her arm around Nancy. "Come back to the house, so we can talk without the distraction of the others being in the room."

As they walked the short distance to the house without really being outside, Heather tagged along talking to Matthew about bedtime. At the house, Dave excused himself to help get the four-year-old ready for bed and read a couple of stories to the youngster. "I'll be about a half hour. Alice, Heather, and the others if they come back will keep you entertained. Please don't leave just yet. This is where the evening gets interesting."

After finally tucking Matthew into bed, a feat that included three books he'd pretty well memorized, last sips of water, a last chance to go to the bathroom, and some pretty generic prayers to the universal force that empowers all of us, he seemed content to go to sleep.

Dave tiptoed downstairs, attuned to the conversations in the living room.

As Dave climbed the stairs behind Matthew, Alice led Nancy into the living room. "Would you like coffee or anything? I'm going to have some. It's decaf."

"Yes, that would be nice."

As Alice puttered in the kitchen, Nancy sat at the counter. She felt that something significant was about to happen.

Alice smiled at her, "You love my husband?"

Nancy was taken back by the direct statement. She responded reflexively, "Yes. Very much. For a long time." She paused and added, "But I wouldn't think to come between you and Dave, or any of the people he loves here ... or even the women he met in Sedona. I'm not that kind of person."

"Work relationships can be complex. I know from first hand knowledge. My boss is also a member of the Circle. You met him briefly – Roy."

"Oh, I wouldn't think of ever saying anything, even if we got angry at each other, which I don't think will ever happen. I'd never do anything to compromise David's career, or, as I said, hurt your family." She gestured back at the Center core where she knew the rest of his intentional family were socializing.

Alice asked, "Do you want to make love with him?"

Nancy looked at the wife of the man she'd just professed to love and made some kind of commitments to. Alice was smiling, and didn't seem at all upset with her. This was insane. Anybody else would become unglued at what she said and be trying to scratch out her eyeballs.

Nancy carefully said in a hushed tone, "Yes. I'd love that. I've never even hinted to David that I felt that way."

Alice said, "You must be aware that there are some conditions."

Nancy felt around in her pockets and produced a piece of paper and passed it to Alice.

Alice smiled again, "A clean STD test. You came prepared, didn't you?"

"I had no expectations, but I thought you might ask. I wasn't even sure whether the subject would come up, but I wanted to be prepared."

"Are you on birth control?"

"Religiously, but I haven't been with anybody for almost a year. In case Dave didn't tell you, I'm a nerd and a bit of a recluse. The job he has me in is forcing me to interact with other people, so I'm coming out of my shell."

Alice sat opposite Nancy, "David isn't going to leave any of us to be with you. He would tell you this as well. We are not exclusive with each other, nor is anybody else in the Circle. It's one of the conditions you will face; he is non-monogamous."

"That's fine. I think that would be an interesting way to live."

"The only other thing you should be aware of is that if you want to sexually play with Dave, and any of us are nearby, that he may ask us to join in unless we're with somebody else, in which case swapping around may be the order of the day or night. The same is true for the other women in the Circle; he may involve them. Thus, you need to be open to and willing to play with someone of your own sex, if not another male."

"Oh, no problem. I've never done sapphic sex, but that doesn't seem like a big deal to me. I think I prefer men, but I don't have a comparison point. If I'm with Dave, would you be the other person?"

"Not necessarily. Any of the women you've met tonight. I might be with Owen, Dev, Roy, Sean or one of the other men."

"So, those are the conditions? Everybody in your Circle is so nice."

"Just one more thing, but let me show you instead of telling you." Alice stood and pulled Nancy back towards the core living room. As they walked, she said, "Remember that old adage, a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case, seeing it is worth a million words. Please, no screaming if you find your sensibilities assaulted."

The two women went through the double doors into the core. Alice put a finger to her lips to indicate silence. The rounded the corner, and there was a small orgy going on with about a ten people.

Nancy's eyes flared with arousal, and enlarged to take in every detail.

Chapter 16 – The Assistant

Nancy's brain could barely register the magnitude of the extensive orgy she saw underway in front of her. This was what Alice had wanted her to see. This looked so exciting and arousing. She matched faces and names with people she'd only met a short time earlier.

Pam and Ty were in the midst of an energetic fuck on one of the sofas. She was in the doggie position looking as though the rapture has overtaken her. Only a couple of feet away Sean and Wendy were similarly involved in the missionary position. The difference was that Heather was perched atop Wendy's face as the latter's tongue laved the juices from the younger woman. Heather and Sean were in a strange looking chair kissing as he held one of her luscious breasts in one hand and pulled on the nipple.

On the plush shag rug between some of the sofas, Clarisse and Julie were in a sapphic sixty-nine with Julie on top. Mike stood by waiting a turn. Next to them in one of the larger chairs Dori straddled Roy and bounced up and down on his impressive cock. Ty stood next to the pair as Dori leaned over the arm of the chair and sucked on his hard cock. Like the others, everyone was naked.

Nancy gasped and in a near silent whisper said to Alice, "Holy shit. That's ... phenomenal ... very hot ... arousing beyond comprehension."

Alice allowed her husband's assistant to watch for another couple of minutes. Julie noticed the two women and waved, but otherwise they remained in the shadows. Eventually, Alice pulled on Nancy's arm and led her back to the house.

As they came into the home, Alice asked, "Tell me what you thought when you saw that, and what you're thinking now?"

"When I first saw everybody I was afraid we were interrupting them and making them stop. I didn't want to do that. I was shocked, but in a 'Wow' kind of way not a bad way. It's not every day you see a small orgy in someone's living room. The more we watched the more aroused I got, and that's what I'm feeling now. I'm wet, probably dripping down below."

"Could you see yourself in that setting? Could you make love to one of the men you met earlier, perhaps while Dave fucks my sister right next to you?"

Without blinking an eye, Nancy said, "Oh, yes; if I'm feeling like I do now. That's be so hot, especially to watch him making love to you."

"Nancy, if you're being honest in your replies, I think you'd fit in with all of us. You were very open in the dinner conversation, obviously liked everybody you met on several levels, and you've responded in a positive way from my point of view to the questions I've had over the past half-hour."

Nancy replied, "I am being honest and open. It's the only way I know how to be. I ... I feel like I just had the most important interview in my life with you. I do want to be liked by everyone, and I like them already. Thank you for even considering me as a friend. I guess Dave will have to put up with me for a while at work."

Nancy turned and faced Alice for a moment. She then hugged her boss' wife and they kissed, and then kissed again, and then Alice initiated a French kiss. When that kiss ended, Nancy felt another presence behind her. She turned, and Heather was there; the two girls also kissed. Julie was next when Nancy turned again. The new arrivals were nude, and Nancy could feel their erect nipples against her.

Last, when she turned again, was Dave. At first, he just smiled at Nancy. She had glassy eyes from the tears of happiness she felt. She launched herself into his arms. This time the kisses were full of even greater passion and a confirmation that she was wanted.

Nancy said in a clear, unequivocal voice, "Please, make love to me." Dave scooped up the younger woman, and carried her to the master bedroom. The other women hung back, allowing the pair a few moments alone before they planned to peek in on the couple to see whether there was room for them to interact.

Dave and Nancy carefully disrobed each other. He kept testing her resolve with each move he made. "Are you sure you want me to remove your top?" "Do you really want me to see you without your shorts?" "Will I embarrass you if I get naked?" "Can I bring our two naked bodies together?" "May I eat and finger your sex?"

There was never any disagreement from Nancy; if anything, there was a rush to get to the sex part of their mutual agenda. When Dave did go down on her, she started a series of orgasms that didn't stop until much later in the evening.

The couple made love; traditionally and conventionally, in the missionary position with Dave telling his new love just how enthralled he was that the two of them could express themselves and their love and affection to each other this way. Nancy repeatedly told Dave hold much in love with him she was, extolling his virtues and asking for inclusion in his life.

Nancy was also a ball of fire, doing things with her body that captured his attention and brought delight to both of them. His praises of her unique skills were rewards with still more squeezing, twerking, and activity. Eventually, they had exceptionally pleasant and romantic orgasms that brought both great joy.

Unbeknownst to Nancy as to what the result would be, Dave started to toy with her quim after their first lovemaking session in a way that would take her outside the planetary system and back. She writhed and twisted, as he fisted her and brought her to another orgasm, and then as he started to deliver what seemed to be supreme pleasure deep inside her body such that the feelings radiated outward from the edge of her soul. The pleasure was too much for her conscious body to handle, and she blacked out. Even in the darkness, her body convulsed in pleasure and love.

When Nancy awoke a few minutes later, she was in Heather's arms as Alice lapped at her husband's cum leaking from his lover's pussy. She carefully used her fingers to help sustain some of the orgasmic feelings left over from the A-spot orgasm Dave had gifted her.

Nancy suddenly had tears rolling down her cheeks as David kissed her. "Oh, God. I love you so ... and Alice, and Heather, and Julie, ... and ... and Pam." She turned and looked at Dave, "I really LOVE you. I am you devoted lover for the rest of time."

Pam was then the one between her legs sucking on her clit, and tonguing her most sensitive and private area.

The women were all naked. Nancy felt no remorse or embarrassment at their presence, only a sense of family, love, and inclusion.

The Circle Cohousing Project board meeting convened right after dinner and cleanup on Thursday evening – a little over a week after Nancy had initially and sexually interacted with the Prentiss family. She'd come back most of the nights since, and had again mated with Dave, but this time in public in the core living room.

After their interaction one night, she had accepted the offer by Sean to make love, and they too had enjoyed having sex as the others around them connected in a similar manner. Later, she'd also made love with Dev. She stayed over in Dave and Alice's large bed, grateful that Julie had gone off to fuck Owen's lights out, and that Pam was on the road part of the time due to her consulting work.

After the board meeting talked about some routine business about job assignments in March for the Circle, Dave brought up one issue he wanted discussed. "Ladies and gentlemen of the board, and general membership, I have a proposal for you that some of you may expect. Because of my personal interest in the outcome, I recuse myself from voting and I will gladly leave the room upon request by anybody. I know there may be sensitivity about this.

"I want to propose that the Circle adopt the concept of 'Affiliate Members.' We in this room, including those of us traveling or away, are full as well as charter members of the Circle. I believe we need another category of membership to our Circle for those we want to involve, but who won't live with us or build or buy a home nearby for many reasons. As an example, I call your attention to Nancy Mason who is committed to integrate as much as she can with our group.

"While we haven't considered anybody for an affiliate membership, I think sometime soon if we're not already there with one or two people, we will be there with others. I know two of the women I met during my trip to Sedona expressed interest in me and our Circle, so their names might come forward later if they follow-through with their plans to visit and end up near here geographically.

I would propose that an Affiliate Member would have to meet the same standards that a new member would without the residency. The board would recommend to the general membership each new affiliate member, as well as their spouse, partner, or any other person living with them, if any. We would want to check them out and vet them, if not require that a significant number of us know them well before we admit them. Thus, we all may have interacted with them before a motion is brought forward, even in a sexual manner. A three-quarters vote of the full members would be required for affiliate membership. A one-year probationary period would follow. I would also ask that they sign an NDA – a non-disclosure agreement regarding our lifestyle, members, and so on. Our lawyer should write that. We should all have those, too.

"Obviously, they would be expected to conform to our requirements about outside sex, STD tests, and so on just the way we do. They would get to sample our lifestyle and even become full members if they chose to come into the cohousing project in some way." He paused, "Questions or comments?"

Ty spoke up, "I think this is a great idea. We have a winning community here, and I think we'd like to see some modest growth to it, but not unbridled expansion. This would enable that level of control, and put us all on notice about the criteria we have before bringing somebody in to be with us in some way."

Wendy asked, "Are you thinking that Nancy Mason is ready for an affiliate membership?"

"Yes, but not everybody knows her yet. i will sponsor her when I think the rest of you are ready, maybe even next week if she keeps hanging around with us the way she has. Most of you have met her, and she's interacted with the entire Prentiss family and with Sean, Kat, Wendy, Dori, and a little with Ty." Both men nodded and smiled to show their appreciation for the woman.

Wendy commented, "I've met her and I like her a lot. I think she'd be a worthy addition to our intentional family. She's very smart and a go-getter."

Roy asked, "Would we expect them to contribute financially in some way?"

Dave pursed his lips in thought, "To tell the truth, I never even considered that. It's a good point. If they start to eat with us, use our facilities, and such, we should certainly ask that they contribute financially in some way."

Dave turned to Julie, "Julie, if we were to ask for monthly or quarterly contributions from an affiliate member like I described, what would do you think equitable charges would be?"

Julie said, "I'd have to work over some numbers, but as you just outlined, I'd say around four hundred dollars a month. I'm also assuming they'd go on some of the work details around the community, such as KP or cleaning in the core area."

Mike snickered, "If they're as good looking as Nancy, I'll offer to pay for quite a few months of their membership if they'll make a few videos with me."

Everyone laughed. Mike was always searching for new talent, and now offered a bounty to anyone that brought him someone that completed an adult video for his business.

Ty commented with a laugh to the Circle, "You offer that offline to her. I don't think it should be part of a formal resolution by the board." He turned to the rest of the room full of people, "Any other questions or comments."

Several voiced words like "Good idea," "Let's do it," and "I'd vote Nancy in today."

Ty said, "We'll prepare a formal resolution for the next meeting when the board will vote, and circulate that to everybody by email. We'll be meeting next week, so it can come up formally then. In the meanwhile, if any of you have any comments please make sure I hear about them, particularly if you want something specific other than what we've talked about this evening. Unless there are no objections, I'll entertain a motion to adjourn."

Friday afternoon, Dave asked Nancy to come to dinner again. She accepted. This was becoming routine behavior.

A week and a day later, Nancy showed up at the Prentiss' home at five-forty-five for her first full weekend with them – Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. She had a suitcase that she brought in. She had also brought a nicely laid out array of chilled shrimp with cocktail sauce that could feed a small army. After welcoming and kisses, they carried the hors d'oeuvre to the core living room, and she helped set up the cocktail hour buffet and dinner tables.

Nancy kept getting interrupted as she had the last time she'd been there, with welcome kisses and hugs. She met a few of the people that had been absent at previous group dinners, finally meeting Owen and Mike more deeply, along with Christie and the Anders family back from a trip: Grace, Jack, and Rachel.

After dinner, Alice said to her, "Nancy, take a walk around the Circle with me. There are a couple of things I want you to know and think about."

Nancy eagerly went with her new mentor, but worried about what the message was. She'd been aware of the board meeting the night before, but knew none of the topics or discussion.

After the got on the perimeter sidewalk, Alice said, "First, this is nothing bad. It's just something I want you to know in case we are bumping into any of your personal boundaries with our Circle activities."

Nancy nodded, "Not so far, but you never know. I don't think everybody knows all their boundaries until something happens to challenge them."

"Good point. What I wanted you to know is that the open, group sex that you've seen on the Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights when you visited get a little more intense on the weekends, especially Friday and Saturday nights. Our intimacy really started at our Saturday night gatherings as Dori gave others and me challenges to help us get loosened up. We did them, and they were often sexually based as I think you know. They've expanded to all weekend nights, now. At the rate of expansion they'll be every night in the not too distant future." She laughed.
