The Affair
Found this old idea and wrote it out in a week. Basically, the title and tags explain it all. Two characters of different ages are having a passionate afternoon together, although one is already married. I never liked cheating, but it's just a story. Anyway, if you enjoy short stories with more mature ladies then you might enjoy this short piece.

The squeaking of a master bed could barely be heard in the upstairs hallway. It was subtle as if in disguise, but the constant rhythm told of another story altogether. The door was cracked open, only allowing a slim view from the empty hall. Blinds in the windows had been drawn shut to create a cozy atmosphere of lighting. But everything happening inside was entirely private.
One final sigh and moan was the last act of a passionate early Friday afternoon. A grey and black furred figure rolled off a softly groaning lady, and flopped onto his back. For a few minutes the room was home to a blissful pair of breathing. On the right side of the bed was a male raccoon, and his black "masked" face appeared just as satisfied as the lady laying beside him. A golden pair of eyes were slow to open again. The lioness beside him deeply exhaled a pleasant breath. The raccoon rolled onto his side and nuzzled up to her arm. A hand traced over her front, before resting atop the gentle rise and fall of her tummy.
"That was... amazing as always." She breathed, still visibly enjoying the pleasure coursing through her.
"Carolyn, you are amazing." He rebuffed. Smiles radiant, neither said anything for another minute, and simply enjoyed the other's company. The pair were noticeably different in age. The raccoon male was young and thin. One the other hand, the lioness was older with a somewhat pudgy belly and thighs. Her breasts sagged somewhat noticeably even while laying on her back.
"What makes me so amazing?" She spoke softly.
"Where do I begin?" He thought aloud.
"Your personality is witty, sweet, kind, and strong. You have a family that loves you, and your body is like that of a goddess." Words lost him as he took his time to trace both hands over her entire front. She smiled and watched him sweetly rub her shoulders, breasts, sides, and belly with the utmost care.
"Aww. You're too sweet and thoughtful." The older lioness couldn't frown if she had wanted to. The feline held up her leg and without hesitation he brought both of her feet into his lap to massage. The lioness hummed and watched his hands tenderly care for her. "Your hands feel wonderful." She warmly smiled.
"You deserve to be treated like this." He emphasized by rubbing his thumbs on one foot. She softly sighed as their pads created sweet friction. For a moment Carolyn allowed him to continue without any objection.
"Jason... I'll fall asleep if you keep this up." She mumbled contently. With a little grin he stopped. Neither minded taking a nap, curled up together; but there was a slight chance of oversleeping. Neither could afford to do that. "But thank you, anyway." Her breasts rolled subtly and she sat up.
"The pleasure is all mine." He leaned forward and shared a kiss with her.
"Mm." Their tongues briefly intertwined as their mounts were connected. Only when they parted did Carolyn slip off the side of the bed. Jason watched her saunter over with a hint of soreness in her legs. Pausing at the open bathroom, she peeked over her shoulder at him.
"Wanna shower together, or at least watch me?" She politely asked. The raccoon's answer came with a smile as he instantly rose from her bed. The tiled bathroom floor was starkly cool beneath his footsteps before reaching a small shag rug. The older lioness was already reaching inside and adjusting the knobs. Jason couldn't help but notice the large bathtub by the window. There were several fond memories shared inside that made him smile.
His ears perked up as the water cut on with a hiss. When the temperature reached Carolyn's liking, she stepped in. The water poured down her body like a waterfall. Fur darkened with dampness as she became soaked. Her body moved like a slow sensual dance as she began to rinse off. Jason enjoyed watching her breasts subtly shift and shake as she moved. After a moment of watching, he decided to join her at the back of the shower. Carolyn glanced over a shoulder as he closed the glass door. The lioness resumed washing her front without saying a word. He touched her, and his hands tenderly rubbed up and down her back.
"Mmm." She pleasantly hummed.
"The least I can do is get your back." He murmured and continued washing the lion's backside. She made no complaints as his hands worked their magic. Jason didn't rush and took all the time he wanted for her pleasure. Feeling her back arch, or sigh contently was a worthy reward for his efforts. His hands trailed down to her rear next, taking his time to massage both sides. The spray of water around him did little to deter him from going lower. He knelt down and washed her legs for her, but when he ventured up and touched her sex, her entire body tensed.
"I'm still sensitive." She murmured with discomfort and he quickly retracted his hands.
"Sorry." Jason stood up and lightly patted her rear, only to receive a playful tap from her tail. He cleaned her sides just as tenderly next before reaching around to her front; but only one spot in particular held his interest.
"I love your breasts." He spoke with affection, despite not being able to see them.
"My breasts aren't as perky as they used to be." Despite the modest tone in her voice, she smiled as he tenderly rubbed them both.
"They're perfectly soft." He made his point by gently grabbing and kneading them. "The way they hang so subtly, and shift to your every move. They're like delicious hanging fruits." His words made her chuckle sweetly as he lightly tweaked both nipples.
"Thankful." Carolyn couldn't help but say.
"My pleasure."
"Are you still working at that job?" She asked while he continued to gently fondle her chest.
"What? The accounting one?"
"Yes, that one. Do you still have that desk job, or did you move onto something new?"
"I'm still an accounting assistant," the raccoon affirmed, "and hating the work all the same." He stated.
"If you hate it then find something else." She suggested.
"Well, I don't hate the work, but it's the same old boring stuff day after day, month after month." His voice droned about the repetitive job. "I'm just smacking a keyboard all day. I should've gone for for the MBA, but you know..."
"You didn't." She correctly said, having heard the complaint more than once.
"Pretty much." He grinned. "I didn't want any more debt, but I might be one of the few who will say that. Everyone my age expects their debts to disappear."
"You kids... they always look for an easy way out. Just work hard and you'll make it."
"You're just saying that because you're older, and you've been through a lot of difficult things yourself." His hands moved up to rubbing her shoulders as they chatted. "Young people don't see things the same way as you do."
"How do young people see things?" She was curious to know.
"We're scared." He concisely told her.
"Scared?" Her face contorted into confusion.
"We haven't been through the trials of life yet. We're only starting and each twisting path is frightening to go alone. Everyone is connected to the Internet, but that makes loneliness much more apparent. We see the best of everyone else, and rarely anything negative. So we think life has to be perfect, and any little speed bump, no matter how tiny, feels like a tragedy."
"Things weren't easy when I was your age either." She turned around and faced him to rinse off her back.
"I did not say that they were... Beautiful." He murmured and took in the sight of the soaked, nude mature lioness standing before him. She couldn't help but grin from his sweet compliments.
"Wouldn't most young people accept a big handout of money if it was offered to them?"
"I'm sure a lot would, but not all of them."
"What if I offered to give you a lot of money? Wouldn't you agree to take it despite sounding so noble?"
"I would never take money from you, because I want to accomplish things on my own." He explained. "Besides, your money is yours. I didn't earn it."
"You might be one of a kind." She admired that quality. "Do you need to rinse off? I'm hogging all of the water." The lioness was obviously soaked, but her companion only had wet arms from washing her.
"Nope. My fur will take forever to dry off anyway." He declined.
"Alrighty then." Carolyn cut the water off. Opening the door, he held her hand as she stepped out.
"Allow me." He quickly retrieved and held open a towel. Carolyn giggled as he wrapped the towel around her, and began drying her sides first.
"Thank you." She grabbed a smaller towel and wiped her face off while he took care of her legs next. "Have I told you the story about when I shot something at night?"
"No, I haven't." He eagerly listened.
"Well, one night I was outside. This was at our old house, the one at the lake with the stone and rock wall. I had my shotgun with me because our backyard extended out towards the woods, and this was a remote lake, so it was pretty much wilderness. I was scared of being attacked by an animal even though I hadn't seen much in our backyard before. I thought I saw a shape in the darkness close to the woods. I yelled and aimed before firing. I was scared to death when I fired, but everything was completely silent. No running, a scream, or anything. Since nothing was there I went back inside. Now, the following morning I went back outside and I didn't find anyone or anything in the yard. But I did find an old scarecrow laying in the ground with a giant hole in his middle."
"You shot a scarecrow?" He laughed. "I guess you showed him not to mess with you."
"Haha! I never want to forget it. It's so funny." She giggled as he finished drying her. The lion's fur was left a little spiky, but mostly dry.
"Need anything blow dried, or brushed?"
"I can let it air dry." She decided and stepped back into her room. The lioness had many beautiful floral dresses that she liked to wear, but Carolyn didn't choose to wear any of them. Instead, the naked feline approached the bedroom's door and opened it.
"Care to hang out in the garden?" She offered. "It's clothing optional." His ears noticeable perked up making her chuckle.
"I'm not as much of a nudist as you are, but how could I say no?"
"I'm only naked when you're around." She winked.
"I do like being naked with you." He grinned and followed her out of the bedroom. The carpet ended as they stepped into the short hall. The home's wooden floors were well kept and clean, no dust in sight. The ceiling towered above. Furniture appeared untouched, and immaculately pristine. Only the soft ticking of a large clock above the fireplace was heard above the light scuffing of their feet across the floorboards. Pictures of family members lined the walls from various years. The frames were exquisite, and not at all cheap. All of the faces and figures were felines, predominantly lions. The ones of Carolyn were typically with two younger lionesses and a male lion. Carolyn was a well-off mature lady who continued to work part time despite being married to a husband who made a very lofty salary of his own. However, their marriage was passionless, and Carolyn desired physical love.
Their little affair had started a little over a year ago by accident. He had complimented her appearance after she noticed his lingering stare. One thing led to another before she invited him over for a special visit. The first pleasant evening led to many more with increasing enjoyment. He tended to her every need, making sure that she was satisfied with each visit. It was their perfect little secret.
Entering a large open kitchen, Carolyn led Jason to a pair of french doors that led outside to a patio and a large fenced in garden. The naked lioness peeked around the visible fence line before opening the doors.
"I don't see our neighbors, but we should be hidden from view anyway." The bright sunshine of the cloudless sky briefly stung their eyes. Stepping onto warm brick, a gentle wind blew around them.
"Mm. I like feeling the breeze through my fur." He hummed. "I can't do this at my apartment."
"I love it too, and that means you should visit more often." She walked by and checked several herbs growing along one section bordering the patio, and another in a grow box.
"Is once a week not enough for you?" He eyed her with a grin.
"What do you think?" She asked, knowing where his gaze was headed. Jason glimpsed her breasts dangling as she bent forward, and felt over the mint and sage plants.
"Hmm."
"It's hardly enough."
"Name the day and time, and I'll see if I can come over." He offered. Carolyn smiled and didn't say anything. The raccoon had a feeling she would take him up on that offer sooner rather than later. His focus was on her, but beyond the pots of flowers on the patio was an entirely different sight. A large expanse of yard was fenced in, right up to the tree line. The garden itself was more akin to a tiny forest, or secret world to explore that a simple place to grow vegetables. He stepped onto a brick pathway that branched in different directions. One section contained bushes, another with ferns and small trees, and flowers were everywhere. Trailing vines of vinca mixed well with every type of plant in the garden, adding to the blend of greenery. Trellises were visibly covered with trailing grapevines and morning glory flowers. Small stones decorated the garden beds and soil, often with engraved encouraging sayings: "Live. Laugh. Love." and "Find Happiness." were common. Despite the plants, little was still. Bees, small birds, and butterflies all made use of the wide array of available plants. It was so peaceful and quiet.
"Your garden is incredible." He mentioned. "Sheesh. There are grapevines, strawberry plants, blueberry bushes, and a ton of other plants. It's like I'm in a forest."
"I put a lot of my energy towards every plant here." She proudly smiled. "It's what I like to do when my husband is away on business... among other things." She thought about the raccoon.
"It really shows. I haven't been out here before. We're usually too busy inside." Jason folded his arms and gazed around the front section of the garden. "I can't even see the neighbors..." It was truly a private garden.
"Be careful." She warned. "There are a few spots near the fence where they can see." Tucked in the corner by the back of the house was a small enclosure of white palisade fencing. An open door revealed a bench and a shower head.
"What!? You even have an outdoor shower?" His jaw dropped at the sight.
"If I knew you loved them so much, then we could've used it." Carolyn spoke up. "There's enough room for two."
"We definitely need to use it next time." He turned back to her.
"I'd be more than happy to." The lioness walked along one pathway. Her tail playfully swayed for him to follow. Jason quickly caught up to her, and the lazily walked along one brick path between the rows of lush plants.
"The weather is perfect." The lioness remarked. "Not a cloud in the sky, a pleasant breeze, and special company to enjoy it with." She looked over at him.
"I couldn't agree more." He playfully bumped into her. The lioness giggled and tapped his legs with her sturdy tail. "What is that?" The raccoon pointed at the base of a Japanese maple. "Grass?"
"No, it's Irish moss." Carolyn happily pointed it out. "It's soft, like a carpet, but it took a long time to make it spread out." She pet over the ground over with a foot. "And I like the deep red of the maple tree." She reached up and felt the leaves hanging overhead. The dappled sunshine made her fur appear aglow with golden hues. Carolyn looked pristine in the pose, as if she had emerged from a painting.
"I'd love to take a picture of you right now." Jason spoke up. The feline turned around and instinctively covered herself.
"Of me?" She gave him a quizzical look.
"If I had a camera." The raccoon revealed empty hands.
"Don't scare me like that!" She uncovered herself and feigned a pouting face. "What would you do with a picture of me?"
"Stare at it."
"What if I wanted it?" Her question befuddled him.
"Well that's okay." He shrugged. "Would you give it to your husband as a gift?"
"I'd be lucky if he had any interest in who took the photo." She replied dejectedly. Looking around, Jason noticed something to change the subject.
"I like the low rock walls." He touched a section covered in moss, bordered by English ivy. "They're really nice."
"They're supposed to blend in with the brick and look natural with the plants." She pointed out.
"I bet it costed a decent amount to have it all build."
"It was well worth it to me, but I handled all of the landscaping involving all of the plants."
"So you planted everything out here?" He wondered how much work was required.
"Of course."
"That doesn't surprise me." The raccoon smiled. "That's why your garden is perfect." He wandered around the outer edge, occasionally able to peek past the fence and outside trees. The neighbor's house was mostly hidden, but even a window or two were in complete view. Carolyn's brow rose as he sauntered towards the edge of the fence where the trees were thin.
"Careful!" She suddenly grabbed his arm. "I think my neighbors can actually see you there." She quickly pulled him back.
"Sorry!" He whispered.
"You don't need to show off to everyone else." She quietly patted his side much to his embarrassment. "Here's a little seat I have." Carolyn approached a stone bench at the end of the garden path. Lilac bushes bordered it and a taller tree behind provided shade. "You should've been here last month when the lilacs were in full bloom."
"I'm sure they were fragrant."
"Mhm. Keep exploring if you like." She sat down while Jason looked around the back of the garden. Rose bushes and irises were close by a row of peonies and tulips.
'This is something you read about as a kid.' He thought to himself and watched several honey bees buzzing from one plant to another.
"There's a gate close to you, but not go outside. We will need our clothes for that."
"I got it." He gave a thumbs up. Carolyn crossed a leg and watched him admire the garden's natural beauty. Jason touched several leaves and plants before returning to the lioness. Sitting down beside her, the raccoon noticed her lengthy gaze ahead.
"What are you thinking about?"
"What?" She absentmindedly blinked.
"You always love to think and talk about what's on your mind when you're sitting." He pointed out. She hesitated before answering.
"It's about my marriage." Carolyn gave a little heartfelt sigh. She touched the wedding ring on her finger. It was the physical symbol of her marriage, and very much a part of her life. "You know that Tom doesn't feel passionate about me anymore." She frowned. "Ever since we had kids he has lost interest in me... That was almost thirty years ago." Jason nodded. He had heard the story several times. "He's focused on work without much care to retire. It's what he lives for, work, but not me." She stared at the brick pathway beneath her feet.for a moment.
"You know I feel some guilt about all of this, even though I have so much fun with you." She held his hand tenderly. "I've been starving for physical love for nearly three decades, and I finally rediscovered it with you. It's so wonderful... Yet, I hate that I'm cheating on him, but I don't think he would really care if it was our little secret. He will buy me anything under the sun, but romance is something he never understood as our marriage continued. We raised up children and moved a few times. I think I'm the one who has been forgotten after all these years."
"I doubt that's easy to think about." Jason rubbed the feline's hand. "I can only imagine how that must feel."
"You don't need to be sympathetic for me. It's my fault that I'm cheating on my marriage, not you."
"Well, I am part of it." He pointed out.
"I know." Carolyn said. "Thanks for understanding."
"How about some good news?" He asked. "I never like seeing you upset. When I visit, you're very happy to see me."
"I'm always happy to see you." A grin reemerged on her face as she thought about other things. "Oh! I'm going to be a grandmother soon." She could hardly contain a wide smile at the fact. "My oldest is pregnant."
"That's wonderful news!" Jason said. "Boy or girl? Any names yet?"
"No, no names. We don't know if she is having a boy or a girl yet. It's too early to tell. My daughter doesn't even look pregnant yet, but when I heard the news I was jumping and screaming with excitement."
"I'm sure that was a sight to see." Jason thought fondly. The lioness gave him a peculiar look with her smile.
"There's a lot of planning we need to do still. I want to be there for her baby shower... I'm fifty three. It's such a strange feeling. I'm so proud... and yet I feel old for the first time since..."
"Yesterday?" Jason playfully guessed.
"Hey!" She laughed softly.
"Age is only a number, and you're a perfect example of that."
"I like to think that, but you really do feel the number..." She rubbed her wrists. "Arthritis, back pain, and everything else... I don't spring back like I used to. Enjoy your youth while you can." Carolyn advised.
"We both are." He teased much to her amusement. The chirping of birds overcame the brief lull in their conversation. "This might sound a little weird and random," Jason stretched a leg out, "but I'd love to write a story about you, and your life experiences."
"All about me? You make me feel like a school girl." She placed a hand on her cheek and softly chuckled. "What would you want to write?"
"Of course. You're interesting and I love the little stories you tell between our intimate moments. From the time you told me about using a shotgun for the first time, to breastfeeding your children when they were infants."
"Those are two completely different stories!" She contained a little laugh.
"It's a strange idea, but I kind of like it." There was a giddiness written on his face as he talked about it. "I mean, it's just a little idea that I will probably forget... I won't include the sex though..." He grinned.
"I'm glad to hear that." Carolyn blew a pleasant sigh of relief. "I definitely want that kept between us."
"I understand, and I couldn't agree with you more. You're very special to me... Honestly, your the first and only lady that I've been intimate with." He shyly grinned. The lioness was baffled.
"What?!" She hushed her voice. "You? I never would have guessed... You were so sweet and gentle. I had no idea I was your first. You never told me."
"I was terrified!" He nervously laughed. "I remember my heart racing so fast, but you were calm and seductive. It was like you were teaching me about love."
"I think we've taught each other a lot." She giggled. "I taught you how to love, and you taught me how to be loved."
"That's sounds right." He liked it.
"But we have been doing this for over a year, and you've never told me that I was your first." The lioness was still in disbelief.
"I'm happy that you were my first." He wasn't ashamed. "It was incredible, and it still is. I always look forward to visiting you." His words made Carolyn's cheeks blush brightly.
"Ah, well... That's very nice of you to say. I enjoy it as much as you do." She rubbed the tops of her legs down to her knees.
"I know that for a fact." The raccoon half grinned. "The whole idea of doing this at first was... wow. You having an affair with me? Sounds ridiculous, but I haven't looked back since." He concluded.
"What is it that you like about older women?" She curiously asked. "We're nothing special, just less beautiful and bitchy."
"That's not true at all!" He objected. "I can't say anything about all older women, but I can say this about you." The raccoon began. "You're very beautiful. Age makes women, like you, graceful and a little humble." He winked. "Your body is soft and tells a story of its own, but it's also the experience from age. You don't take this for granted, because you've lived life more than most others. You understand things, and you appreciate me... People my age treat sex and romance like a reusable razor. They go at it like animals and then part ways as if nothing happened. Sex with you is... it's gentle, caring, fulfilling, and loving." He spoke. "But that doesn't mean there's a lack of passion, far from it!" The lioness smiled brightly as she felt a little embarrassed to hear him say that. "I love pampering you, and making you feel happy." He placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You're going to make someone a very happy wife one day." She smiled.
"Thanks. I hope so."
"Don't be so modest. You've made me feel so much happiness that I can't even describe it."
"Until then, I'll settle for making you happy." He promised. The lioness's bright smile fell to a half grin.
"I'm not afraid of becoming a grandmother, but I don't think there will be a lot of free time for us to spend like this soon."
"That's fine. Family is more important. You'll get to spoil your first grandchild."
"I'm very excited about it." She nodded as the smile returned in full force along her feline muzzle.
"How about we meet up for lunch or something next time." He offered. "As friends."
"I doubt my husband would care." She grinned and agreed.
"I'm already looking forward to it, but before I leave for the day," he slipped off the stone bench, "I'd like to part with you as a gentleman." The raccoon took ahold of her hand and walked around her. The lioness was perplexed as she turned and straddled the edge of the bench.
"What do you want to do?" She asked. Without a word he knelt down and parted her legs, giving away his intent.
"Oh! Out here?" She looked around nervously, but made no attempt to close her legs.
"Yes." He grinned and rubbed her thighs. "You're not a screamer, and it's nice out here." His head lowered to her sex. Carolyn held her breath as she laid back for him. Her heart fluttered madly. There was something erotic about being pleasured in the garden by him. Hot breath descended upon her sex, making the hair on her neck stand. She closed her eyes in anticipation. His tongue began gently licking along her folds, only teasing at any attempt to push inside.
"There... Yes... Just like that." She cooed as her heart fluttered within her chest. "Nice and slow." Her claws unsheathed and clung to the concrete surface. The build up of pleasure was going to be slow, and she was going to enjoy every second of it. "Oohhh... Mmm." Her hums and moans were light and encouraging to her lover, like a sweet serenade calling to him above the chirping birds. The muscles in her rear clenched constantly as her body trembled with heated desire. Her hips instinctively rose and fell rhythmically in her own little dance of heated passion.
"Aaahhh... Mmm!" She hummed passionately with every nibble and lick. There was no pause, no end to the pleasure he gave her. Licking and kissing every inch of her wet flesh, every place his tongue touched felt like hitting a live burning wire for her. All she heard above her breathing were the slick sounds of his mouth upon her. The pleasure steadily grew until it reached a peak. Her entire body tensed as he carried her into a golden bliss.
"Nnngghh! Oohhh..." With an exasperated sigh her entire body relaxed into a euphoric peace. The afterglow felt like she had fallen asleep with tingling muscles. Carolyn could barely feel him nuzzle her leg.
"Mmm..." She softly hummed wearing a grin across her face. Blinking her eyes open, Carolyn found Jason kneeling beside her. His head loomed over her, their noses were inches apart.
"I'm leaving... Are you going to lay out here?" He softly asked.
"Mmhm. But so soon?"
"I'm afraid so." His voice hinted at regret.
"Aww... Drive safely, please." She spoke before they shared an intimate kiss, cradling each other's head with loving tenderness. When they parted, it felt bittersweet.
"Thank you. I'll see you another day." He held her hands before standing up, and taking one last look at the naked lioness sprawled out on the stone bench. Jason turned and followed the brick pathway back to the house.
"Your clothes are on the dresser, and wipe your chin before you leave." She called out.
"You sound like my mom." He winked back at her. She stretched her arm out towards the naked raccoon as he walked down the path. Carolyn hated to see him go, but she couldn't help but eye the naked form walking away. Her hand slowly closed as he disappeared around a bush and returned to the house. Her ear flickered hearing the back door open, and then close. Even though he had visited her for two hours, it only felt like a few minutes had passed now that she was alone once again. With a deep breath, her hand trailed down her tummy. Her body shuddered wonderfully as she traced a line over her wet sex.
'I hope you come back soon.' Her golden eyes gazed up at the cloudless sky. 'I already miss you.' She thought to herself as a gentle breeze ruffled bare fur.
End...
