My options were severely limited if I didn’t resume my sexual relationship with Maria Cristina, and probably limited even if I did. There had been, ...I was sure, implied promises, and perhaps some formal promise, that she would feel I was violating. And she might be correct in her assessment, but the ACTUAL deal, the very specific quid pro quo was that my wives and I would ensure she was supported until her Residency started. And physical intimacy was qualified by clear, explicit terms - nobody,. I gave her another swat similar to the first on her other ass cheek, marveling as the red stripe appeared as if by magic.After letting her dance for a few moments to work through the pain of the first two strokes, I took a firm hold of both her nipples pinching them hard and pulling her towards me by her sensitive little nubs. Precious howled as she felt her nipples being stretched and practically torn off. I scolded her and chewed her out for disobeying my orders to keep her hands where I told. The door bell rings the food has arrived I go to the door and pay and put the food in the kitchen, Shaun asks if he can help I tell him to get some plates and so on and I yell to the girls that the food is here, no answer Shaun gets stuck in to the food I go up stairs and say food is here I go in to the bed room and find C just putting on here soft fleece jump suit as I turn to go out and I bump into Mandy who has just come out of the guest bathroom with a towel around her waist and her bra on. It makes a big difference if you can go into a disaster with some money in the bank. It doesn’t matter whether you are an individual, a family, or a country, the principle is the same. Our national credit rating was still exceptionally good, and if we did need to borrow, going into a deficit (quite probable, actually) would be a manageable situation, and one we could get out of in a year or two. Once again, I needed to figure out how not to let a perfectly good crisis go to waste. It is.
