Anyway, back in February it finally happened. It wasn't a complete stranger, my wife used to work with him before we met but I had never met him. We h...d booked a romantic/dirty night away, just to get away from the humdrum of a usual weekend.Anyway, we got there about an hour or so before we could check in so wandered around the shops, went for a coffee - and then decided that something stronger was in order so headed off to a bar. A couple of drinks in and I hear someone call out my wife's. "It's always good to check," I'd said."No shit," she'd responded with a twitch of her nose and a smile which Inow tried to replicate in the mirror as I dressed again and prepared toanswer the intrusive knock."Hello Katerina," I said to my new reflected self."Ben?" It was Charley's voice."Yeah," I said, "hold up a minute."I opened the door to find Charley and Jarvis standing together. Charley'smouth dropped slightly open and his eyes went wide. Jarvis whistled theriff to Led Zeppelin's. I hoped this qualified as foreplay 'cause if they had uh place, I could make time.I watched as the woman applied bright pink polish to Ame's toenails and glanced down to see what they were doing to me. She'd already applied the same color to half my foot.I almost kicked her in the face trying to pull my foot away, "Hey! Hey! What the fuck..."Ame hit me with the magazine she was reading. "Sit back or you'll smear it and she'll have to start over."I looked at her, mouth open to argue. She looked. But Midor is not far from retirement, and today I wish to feel challenged. Dern will be a tough challenge for me, though neither would be a challenge for you. I ask you to take the territory of Midor, leaving me the territory of Dern. Besides, Dern's more varied ecology will be good for Jena's hunt training." That works well. After all, my territory in the Brahman is more valuable than any of these territories, and is beside the trading post and the Elders' Enclave where Davdan works." Menak.
