Chapter 1: Checking In, Check Her Out

Chase Markman had to admit it, his wife Mindy looked happier than he had seen her in a long time as she rode beside him in the resort limousine. The morning sun shone warm and bright into the vehicle and a light breeze from the sun roof gently ruffled her sun dress. Chase wished that the breeze showed off a little more of her shapely legs, but he was happy that the V-neck of the dress showed off some of her cleavage. He felt the slight stirring of his cock. Perhaps this vacation idea would rekindle some of their marriage's lost spark.

Mindy was 42 years old this year, but really she looked closer to 24. She had married Chase as soon as they had both graduated from University and had their first and only child, now a beautiful 18 year old high school senior, a year later.

Nobody would have recognized Mindy five years ago to look at the beautiful fit women that stood basking in the sun. After the birth of their daughter Mindy put on a lot of weight ballooning up to 180 pounds. But several things conspired in the last few years to change that.

Chase noticed that the bellman, a muscular black fellow, was checking out his wife while he opened the limo door for them. There was no doubt that he would have loved a shot at her, although she would never consider any kind of relationship with a black man, let alone sex. She wasn't openly racist, but it was a result of her upbringing, and the part of Texas they now lived in. The doorman noticed Chase looking at him look at his wife. He just smiled and nodded as if to say 'well done'.

"Wow, I'm impressed, this place is very nice." Mindy commented as they paused for a moment along the long shaded walkway leading to the expansive two story lobby of the resort. The wooden building was painted a rich cream color with dark green trim and was surrounded by lush greenery and flowers. There was a wonderful spicy flavor to the air. "Mmmm, it smells wonderful too." She made a bit of a face as the muscular black bellman walked between them on his way with their luggage.

Chase was happy to see that the expensive resort was making a good first impression on his wife. He had scrimped and saved for over a year to afford this vacation, and it had been so long since he was able to do anything like this for her.

About six years ago Chase lost his job in a high tech firm and the family quickly fell into crushing debt. They were literally weeks away from being forced out into the street when Mindy's father stepped in to relieve them of their debt. His only condition was that his daughter and the family move back to Texas to be near him. Much to Chase's chagrin he was forced to take a job in her father's business selling overpriced parts to military contractors.

Mindy, and her mother, decided that they would only live in a pricey Dallas suburb well beyond Chase's income forcing him to accept the additional shame of having her Daddy buy them a house too. So all Chase could do was keep his head down and push government payment forms while his father made sure he knew that what he thought of his loser son in law.

"I think you'll really enjoy it here honey." Chase said as they continued to walk up towards the lobby. "I have us set up for a special dinner tonight by the beach, a massage tomorrow, and a snorkeling cruise on Tuesday."

"I can see the beach, there beyond those beautiful flowers." She answered, obviously relaxing after the long plane ride.

"And they have a gorgeous pool set up." Chase added, hot tubs, a relaxing pool, a splash pool, and a lazy river pool that takes us all through the gardens."

There was one plus to the whole arrangement back in Texas though. Their new home, located in the lush gated community of Eden Gardens, was filled with sexy well maintained trophy wives. They all tended to fit the same mold, big hair, big boobs, and perfect tanned bodies.

Mindy quickly made friends with a couple of the local wives, started going to the same trainer, and in a matter of months had regained her athletic size 3 body, with one exception. After having a baby, and carrying so much extra weight for so many years, her breasts no longer had the youthful bounce that used to hypnotize men. But a $35,000 loan from Daddy, more debt for Chase later, and Mindy's breasts were a stunning D cup. Her new breasts looked perfect, and topped off her athletic figure perfectly.

That's what made it even worse. Mindy's born again Christian friends looked upon sex as a chore for their fat old husbands, a chore that bought them the jewelry, cars, vacations, almost whatever they wanted. This attitude rubbed off to some extent on Mindy, that and her new found religious fervor. At the prodding of her new friends she joined the church and started spouting the same mindless dogma.

They walked into the lobby of the resort. The lobby featured a giant tropical reef tank along one wall serving as a focal point for the lounge area leading up to the lobby bar and the gourmet restaurant's entrance.

"This is really beautiful honey." Mindy said taking in the long line of flowers that led up to the check in desk. "You must have really scrimped to afford this honey."

Chase shuddered inwardly at her last comment. He hadn't told her that this was a time share promotion or that they'd have to sit through a sales presentation, or at least he would anyway. He was afraid that she would flip when she found out and give him the cold shoulder the whole time they were there. On the other hand, he thought as he watched his wife's hips sway seductively, given how beautiful the resort was he might just have a shot at getting laid this vacation.

Mindy used to really enjoy sex with Chase, lots of sex. But now sex had become a rarity, usually when Mindy had been out with the girls and had a few too many drinks. Her new body made it even worse. Chase had never really minded Mindy's weight before. But now with her newly hot body he wanted her more than ever, only to be rebuffed more times than not. And when her equally nubile friends visited Chase usually had to step out of the room after a few minutes lest his growing erection become embarrassingly noticeable.

"Welcome to Glamity Bay Island Resort!" The pretty young woman behind the desk greeted them with an excited smile. "I just know you're going to love your stay here. Here, have a cookie, they're fresh! Oh, and my name's Jenny"

She handed Chase and his wife a fresh backed cookie, similar to a chocolate chip cookie, but a little spicier. Chase tried his best not to stare at Jenny, but he had a hard time considering the shapely girl was dressed in a wrap around skirt with a slit that showed the full length of her shapely and tanned thigh, and a bikini top that left little of her large firm breasts to the imagination. He couldn't help but feel his cock stirring in his Bermuda shorts.

"You guys must be the Markman's, Chase and Mindy, welcome!" She paused to give them a blazing smile. "We have you listed in the Kali Cabana, right near the hot tubs! It's beautiful there, one of my favorites! Don't you just love the cookies? Would you like another?"

Chase hadn't realized it, but he'd eaten the whole cookie, it was very tasty. Soft, warm, gooey, and there was that little taste of spice that kind of made his tongue tingle. He noticed that Mindy had finished hers as well, which was unusual given her diet and fitness regime.

"These are so good!" Mindy answered enthusiastically. At first Chase thought that she was mocking the overly bubbly girl, but quickly realized that she was being serious. "What's in them that makes them so yummy? Oh, and yes I'd love another!"

Jenny took another cookie and, reaching over her large desk, handed it to Mindy who immediately took a big bite of it. Chase's eyes almost bulged out of his head as the pretty young desk clerks breasts strained against the thin Lycra, her nipples clearly outlines on the flowery material.

"Well, it's pretty much a standard chocolate chip recipe; everything is all natural and made from scratch, flour and sugar from the local islands, and the chocolate is the very finest imported from Belgium. But what really make them so unbelievably good are the local spices in the recipe, including an extract from these lovely flowers that grow only here at Glamity Bay. Your cabana is named after them, the Kali flower.

The flowers grew all around the resort in both the well tended gardens, and growing wild. They sprouted from a lush green leafed base that sent a thick column of white flowers a foot or more into the air. Mindy leaned close to the cut flowers on the reception desk and inhaled deeply.

"Oh my goodness, these smell heavenly..." She said as she buried her face in the plant to take another deep breath. Chase watched as his wife's nipples hardened against her dress and goose bumps spread across the perfect skin of her breast. "You should smell them..." she said turning to Chase, she had an odd look in her eyes, he couldn't quite place it. "They smell so wonderful."

Chase had other worries; his cock was hardening by the second and starting to press against his shorts. "Why don't we sit down dear? Let's get checked in and we can enjoy the flowers all day!" Bending over to hide his hard on he held a chair for Mindy as she sat down before sitting down, legs crossed, hands folded in his lap.

"Right, we'll get you checked in!" Jenny continued as she pulled their file up on the computer. "You're here for the 4 night introductory visit." Chase cringed inwardly, he was afraid what Mindy was going to say when she found out this was a time share presentation. But much to his relief Mindy was once again examining the flowers, breathing their scent in deeply. "I see you're signed up for a massage tomorrow and snorkeling the day after."

"Yup! Great!" Chase interrupted, hoping to avoid mention of the time share until the end of the trip. "And we have that special dinner on the last day." Mindy looked up. 'Oh crap' Chase thought as his erection deflated.

"Oh, no Mr. Markman," Jenny said with a big smile, "the presentation dinner is always on the first evening. That way Mr. Finny can explain all of the features of the resort and what an amazing value it is. That way you have the rest of your stay to explore and decide if you'd like to own a piece of Glamity Bay Resort. It's completely no pressure"

"Own a piece of it?" Mindy asked; an undercurrent of anger was noticeable in her voice. "You mean to say this is a time share?" It was all crumbling around him. Chase knew he couldn't completely hide the reality from Mindy, but he hoped that after a few romantic days at the resort she wouldn't care. Well right now, she cared, a lot.

Never one to make a scene with the "help" Mindy listened politely to the pretty young receptionist asking a few questions. But Chase could see the anger building. He was really going to get blasted when they got to their room, and he doubted he'd see any sex for months after this. He sort of zoned out as he watched the two pretty women talk as his once hard penis tried to crawl back into his body.

He was distracted as the door behind Jenny opened and a beautiful woman dreamily stepped out of the plush office behind. He couldn't help but notice that she was dressed only in a small bikini that showed off every inch of her beautiful body. She noticed the three seated by the reception desk, smiled crookedly at Chase and turned back to call into the office.

"I can't thank you enough for taking care of me Mr. Finny, you're wonderful."

A black man dressed in an expensive linen suit came to the door and kissed her on the cheek. "Any time my dear." He said in a heavy island accent, "Whatever I can do to make your stay a full one."

"You must be the Markmans, I'm sorry I wasn't here to greet you when you walked in the door, I'm afraid I had to take care of another guest who had a rather urgent need. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Beauregard Finny the General Manager of Glamity Bay Island Resort. " The man took Chase's hand and shook it before reaching over to take Mindy's hand and kiss it. Mindy smiled at the gesture. "Mrs. Markman, you seem upset. And you see it is my one and only job to make your stay here the most wonderful and enticing experience you can imagine. Is there anything I can do to help?"

Mindy seemed somewhat disarmed by the charming black man. "Well, Mr. Finny, it's just that my husband neglected tell me that this vacation was just a time share condo scheme. Frankly, I really have no interest in a time share at all, although your resort is very beautiful."

"Ah, I think I understand Mrs. Markman. But please forgive your husband. I happen to know that Glamity Bay Island Resort was recommended to him by one of your good friends, Mrs. Jordon. I think she just wanted you to enjoy the pleasures that you can only find here just as she does." Finny continued with a smile.

It was true; Anna May Jordan had recommended the resort when Chase had asked a few of Mindy's friends. He was happy to see that Mindy, now holding and gently smelling one of the copious Kali flowers, was beginning to smile and nod as she listened to Finny. Perhaps the vacation wouldn't be a total loss after all.

"I think I understand now Mr. Finny," Mindy finally seemed calm again, "but I don't want to waste your time with a sales presentation..."

"It's really not a sales presentation Mrs. Markman..." Finney interrupted.

"Oh, you can call me Mindy, Mr. Finny." Mindy shone a dazzling smile, very unusual given her general dislike of black people.

"And please, call me Beau, or Buddy as most of my friends call me." Finny's broad smile seemed to grow even wider as he leaned in close to Mindy. "We don't do sales presentations, there is absolutely no pressure. In fact, my job this evening is to show you an entertaining evening, share a little about the resort, and cook you and your husband a gourmet dinner in one of our private beach retreat."

Well, that depends..." Mindy moved a little closer to the other man, "How good a cook are you?"

"Ha! I promise I am a very good cook and that I will prepare an evening you will never forget!" Finny said with a laugh. "I promise there will be no high pressure sales, well, no sales at all really. Just some great drinks, fantastic food, and big fun!"

Mindy smiled and thought for a moment. "OK, deal, we'll see you tonight."

The couple took their key cards from Jenny, who insisted on hugging both of them, not that Chase was complaining, and they strolled behind the bell boy as he walked them to their room.

Mindy leaned over to speak quietly in Chase's ear. "Beau seems very nice. Not at all like I would expect being, you know, black. He's very nice, and clean, and seemed very well spoken."

Sensing a chance to redeem himself; Chase leapt in, "See honey, I knew you'd love this place. Anna May was right!"

"Oh, you're not out of the woods yet mister." Mindy scolded sternly, the anger returning to her eyes. "I'm still pissed at you for telling me this was a vacation when you knew damn well that it was a time share presentation. Beau seemed nice, but I can't believe he's not going to make it hard tonight."

"I'll tell you what's already hard this afternoon." Chase tried to interject some levity. And besides, it was the truth, he was nursing a semi hard erection that, if he wasn't careful, was going to harden again and make an embarrassing tent in his shorts again. "What do you say we christen the room as soon as we get in?"

"Oh don't be gross Chase." Mindy retorted as the black bellman opened the door for them. "You aren't getting anything from me until I see how it goes tonight."

Mindy disappeared onto the porch overlooking the hot tub while the bellman set up and started to put away their clothing. Mindy ran back in as he was about to open her suitcase. "Oh hey, no! Um, thanks anyway though." She said nervously as she closed her suitcase. "I like to do it myself."
