This is chapter one of a 3 chapter story that would be better classified as "Steampunk Erotica". The time is 1944. The place is somewhere in Germany. The Occult masters of deception work diligently to perfect new weapons to reverse the stunning losses sustained by Nazi Germany. Doctor Helga Krauthammer is the foremost scientist in the alternative energy project and she is willing to do anything to achieve her final goal of sustainable cheap power for the Thousand Year Reich.
Not a widow and not unmarried, the lonely Maureen finds employment at a factory that subjects all female employees to activities of a carnal nature. She even progresses to the age-old trade of bartering flesh for coins. However, there is a happy ending.
It started as a prank on a 'shy' gf by her bf and 2 friends. After conflicts, she gave in to the trip and kept pretending to be shy - briefly. The 2 couples expose to each other and end up swapping partners twice. They expose themselves to strangers, dare to ski naked and learn about an adult only lounge for more exploits.
Our first meeting with Nikki, mysterious owner of the "Hot Rags" boutique, and with Jo, who will also appear in later stories. A rather sinister lady, Nikki, by all appearances, at least as the story begins.
