We had lunch at the beach, and then headed to our cottage to rest. Since it was our anniversary, I prepared something for him as a gift. As we lay dow... in bed, watching boring movies, I kissed him and whispered in his ear, “Just stay there and I have something to show you.” I quickly showered and dressed in a school girl outfit; Cliff sat on our bed as I was getting ready for the “show”. I locked the door, closed the windows and the curtains (so that it would be a little darker in our cottage),. "And you are naked..." He did not need to guess why, Laivien already told him in an amused tone."That is..." Zax was embarrassed. His Master's remark made him feel indecent by being exposed, even though his Master did not wear clothes either and almost none of the humanoid beasts his saw. On the other hand, they had no need for clothes in any other form than their human one and it only now dawned on Zax."Come inside, I have a few beast skins. Cover yourself and sit with me". Kartius pulled Zax. " Come riding with me this afternoon and again with the two of us," said Mark.Frances smiled fondly at him. "I'd love to but this afternoon's a write off. I've got a SSAFA (Soldiers Sailors and Air Force Association) meeting at three."She had achieved what she wanted. Mark was relaxed again. They chatted away over lunch in their usual easy way. Afterwards Mark thanked her and said he must vanish or he would be late."Thank you, Mummy," he said giving her a hug and a kiss. "You've really cheered. " I wish, Mom. I guess there's just not much to tell. I go, I'm there, and I come home." I understand." But if anything big happens, you'll be the first to know, Mom." Thanks Honey. I feel better now."We smiled at each other and I went on about my business. Everything seemed normal. I was glad.I didn't think much more about my conversation with Mary Ann until bedtime that night. By then, not only was I past feeling guilty, but the truth is that I was turned on. At that point it wasn't because.
