Chapter 18: Sex Consent

Eve was before her laptop on Elvin’s dining table when her phone rang. She paused what she was doing, looked at the caller, it was April. Her best friend, and she answered.

“April!” Eve said.

“Eve!” April said. “How are you doing, darl?”

“I’m fine. What about you?”

“Better than you, I guess.”

“How so?”

“Well, Frank went to see his family when this lockdown hit,” April said. “Since it delayed his coming back, and knowing my sexual appetite, he told me to have anyone I wanted.”

Eve’s gaze widened. “Your husband said that?”

April giggled. “Yup. He was more thrilled with the idea. His only demand was that I video call him when it’s about to happen, place the phone on a stand so he can see it all unfold.”

“And?” Eve asked, eager to know more.

“And if I can’t reach him, then I’m to go ahead and do it, but I’m to tell him about it all.”

“Wait. But you love Frank. You told me that you can’t cheat on him.”

“It’s not cheating. He gave me his consent. Besides, I still love Frank. I don’t think I’ll ever stop loving him.”

Eve couldn’t believe what she was hearing. But she knew it wasn’t her place to reprimand April. She had forced a lockdown on an entire state because she needed the attention of a man. She even wanted to buy his company, but the lockdown had proved to be more effective.

“Are you sure Frank isn’t jealous?” Eve asked.

“If he is, he never shows it,” April said. “He meets other ladies there too. We have this open relationship. Basically, we can do anything, but we need each other’s permission to carry it out. If one person says no, then, it’s a no. But there’s a problem Eve.”

Like she guessed. Eve closed her eyes and placed a hand to her forehead. “What is it?”

“I’ve been meeting this guy, some I’ve been repeating, but I can’t seem to shake a certain guy from my mind.”

Eve smiled. “Now, you’re trapped. What’s he like?”

“Well, seeing him, he doesn’t look hot or anything like that. But I like him because he’s clever. He knows the workings of a woman’s body, and we only did it once.”

“Once, and you’ve not been able to get him back to your bed?”

“I’ve been trying,” April said, “but I don’t know how to approach him about this?”

“Wow. You are falling for a guy that’s not your husband. I’m thrilled. Okay. Tell me about him.”

“Okay.” And Eve could tell April was smiling.

“Go on,” Eve said.

“Well, this was before the lockdown,” April said.

“Okay?”

“At first, I didn’t like him. But somehow, he got me to, and I started feeling sexually attracted to him. When I first felt that, I let Frank know, and he approved, saying that I can fuck him. I must say, I have sex with other guys. No strings attached. But what I had with this guy that night was heavenly. He treated me as one would a lover. We danced, rocked, and when we finally got down to it, our bodies danced. I was lost in him, and I like to think he was also lost in me too. We did it for hours, and he made me explode a million times.”

This reminded Eve of Elvin, and he had just walked into the parlor. He waved at her, and she waved back, lingering a passionate gaze on him. She watched him take a drink from the fridge, and she let her gaze fall to her laptop as she kept listening to April.

“Seeing all he could do, I had to term him as the hottest and the most skilled guy,” April said. “I do tell Frank everything, but I couldn’t get myself to tell him about everything this guy did. Frank usually prides himself as my stallion. He wants me to get to see other guys so I can see that no guy would ever reach him. This guy was way higher than Frank.”

“Oh my, April,” Eve said. “Do you think Frank suspects?”

“I don’t care about that. I want that guy back in my bed, and I need you to help me, darl. I’ve been trying to find him, but I’m not making any headway with my search. You have the best private investigators. Could I borrow one?”

“I’ll tell you what, if you give me strong details of what he did, I’ll find him myself.”

April laughed. “So you can share him too?”

Eve shrugged it off. She couldn’t deny that she was curious. But Elvin was more than enough for her, and the things he did during sex, she was certain he was beyond this guy April talked about.

“I am observing a lockdown, and my man is damn good with everything. He may even best yours. So, a bit of detail, please.”

Eve raised her head to see Elvin was watching her with a smile. She grinned. Clearly, he had heard what she had said about him. She saw him get under the table, and she knew he was crawling towards her.

Soon, she felt his warm breath, and a kiss on her thigh. Eve closed her eyes, listening to April describe her hot experience, she widened her legs.

She felt Elvin’s lips warm against her legs, he used his tongue and gently moved to her garden. She let out a sigh when he jabbed at her with his tongue, then he worked his way into her.

Eve was trying to compose herself, and at the same time listen to what April said.

“And that’s why I want you to help me find him,” April said. “Hope that’s good enough?”

Eve, already experiencing a better version of what April had just said to her, and not wanting her to repeat with her plea, said, “Yes. Yes. What’s his name? I’ll help you find him.”

“Are you breathless?”

Eve smiled with embarrassment. She thought she was doing well to hide Elvin’s torture. Seems she was failing. “His name, please.”

“Fine. Elvin Field.”

Eve’s eyes brightened.
