The Mansion

[DarkWarrioress]

"Well..." she grinned and poured him a fresh cup before setting the pot back on the table, " I don't think you have much choice, do you? Since you aren't wearing anything under those jeans, I'd say you have to go all in and in return, if you win, you get my sweater and slacks."

She sat back on her heels and beamed.

Gotcha.

It was a heady thought. Unless, of course, she lost this hand.

 

[LordUsagi]

"That is a kind gesture by you...hmmm must be confident."

Picking up his cup he winked at her as he took a sip, "but so am I and I want to raise you."

He place the cup down.

"So what would I have to bet to get your, shoes and Thigh Highs as well. That way when I win you will be in your underwear and I will be in mine, because basically I have none on."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

Her eyes raked over him.

"Hm. Now, that's an interesting question, considering the circumstances."

Her head tilted slightly to one side.

"Make me an offer."

She sure as hell wasn't going to make this easy. He was feeling confident. So was she. This was going to be interesting.

 

[LordUsagi]

"An offer you say...well I could offer you my body...but we will leave that for the next hand."

He grinned.

"I tell you what a massage, nothing naughty mind you."

He flexed his fingers.

"Just a good strong, back and shoulder massage."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

"An offer you say...well I could offer you my body...but we will leave that for the next hand."

Her brow arched at that.

"If, there's a next time, you mean. Hmmm."

Her eyes were drawn to his hands as he flexed his fingers. That could be useful. She had been feeling tense of late and there was some subtle pain in her upper back. A moment more to calculate what that bet would leave her with, clothes wise. She inclined her head slightly.

"Done."

 

[LordUsagi]

"Excellent," he steeples his fingers in an effort to look menacing.

"I hope you have sexy silk things under there."

He picks up the cards.

"So how many cards do you wish to exchange?"

 

[DarkWarrioress]

She glanced down at the table to the small stack of cards in front of her. She stared at them for a long moment, then raised her face to his. Her eyes were simply deep pools of green.

"I'll play these."

Her voice was tempered and soft.

 

[LordUsagi]

He raised an eyebrow, a little worried.

It was not about winning to him, but at least he wanted to put up a good fight.

"You do know I haven't got anything left to be with, so there is not need to be tricksy."

He was hoping she was trying to scare him off and didn't already have the best hand she could make with her five cards.

"Unless you still wish to bet," he grinned, "there are lots of things I could offer you and I would love to own my own bra and pantie."

He winked

"Dealer takes one."

He put one card aside and dealt a replacement for himself.

 

[DarkWarrioress]

She mentally noted that he took one card and all that implicated. In the long run, he was fishing. She wasn't. She had a hand to begin with.

"I won't even ask why you want to own a bra and panty set."

That made her giggle. Then she cleared her throat.

"We'll consider you all in then."

Her fingers rested lightly on her cards. A lock of her hair fell forward over her shoulder as she leaned into the table.

"The question is... should I make you show me yours first since you have nothing left to bet with OR should I play nice and show you mine."

 

[LordUsagi]

"It's not own a bra and panty set, it's own your bra and panty set."

He picked up his last card, smiled and looked at her.

"Well you can show them first, because I most likely am going to be showing mine first."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

"Mine? Why in the world---"

She lifted her hand off of her cards with a laugh and held it up as if to stop him.

"Never mind. I don't really want to know. Men are trophy hunters, I swear."

Still smiling she rolled over the stack of cards in front of her and fanned them. In order they showed a full house, Kings over nines.

 

[LordUsagi]

He shook his head in disbelief.

"That is what I dealt you straight up."

He took a long swig of tea.

"So tell me are you going to offer me some mercy, maybe let me keep my trousers in exchange for sexual favours?"

He had a big smile on his face.
It certainly wasn't the face of someone who had thought he lost.

 

[DarkWarrioress]

Now who was the cat and who was the mouse? She sat back on her heels and grinned. She wasn't taking anything for granted. He hadn't flipped over his cards yet. A finger was crooked in his direction.

"Stop yapping and show me your cards," was the teasing reply.

She reached for her teacup. This hand was far from over. She just might need some fortification.

 

[LordUsagi]

He grinned.

Turned over his cards and winked at her

Clubs Straight Flush 7 high

"Hmmm looks like Lady Luck doesn't want to see my Mr Wiggly just yet."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

A hand slapped over her mouth to keep the tea from flying across the table. She struggled to swallow and not to laugh, though he made the latter quite hard from happening. The cup was set aside. She got her urge under control and got to her feet in a graceful, fluid motion.

"Lady Luck is a bitch." She grumbled as fingertips gathered the material of her sweater and she pulled it over her head.

As her arms raised, her naked torso came into view, trim, a hint of muscle from exercising. The warmth of the sweater left her, making her skin form goosebumps. Her bra was a lacy black number, secured between her breasts by a clip. The sweater tousled her hair as she pulled it off, leaving the latter like a small cloud. She tossed the sweater at him, grinning.

Leaning over, she undid the strap at her ankle and slipped a heel from her foot. It fell to the floor with a soft thud. The action was repeated on the other side. It too, went to the floor with the same soft sound. Returning to an upright position, her eyes found his face as her hands slid into the waistband of her slacks and slowly lowered the material until gravity took over and made it pool at her feet.

"If I might have your assistance a moment, my good sir."

She held out a hand to him.

 

[LordUsagi]

He smiled, rose to his feet and took her hand.

"Why of course my dear."

He couldn't help grinning at the beauty before him

 

[DarkWarrioress]

With her hand securely in his, she stepped out of the slacks. She bent again, retrieving them and draping them over a nearby chair. A pair of panties to match her bra and her black thigh high stockings were all she had on now and was about to lose the stockings.

The next hand would determine the outcome of this little card game by her way of figuring. He had his jeans. She had panties and a bra. They were about to become on a more equal footing once more. Withdrawing her hand from his, she tossed him a little wicked smile as she balanced her stocking clad foot on the edge of the table. Her fingers found the top of the thigh high and began rolling it down her leg. As it got lower, she leaned over to continue rolling, her hair falling over her shoulder and hiding her face. The stocking got to her heel and from there, it was a simple matter of just slipping the stocking free of her foot. Standing upright again, she let it dangle from her fingers before it too, joined her slacks. The foot was set to the floor and the other lifted. Her fingers moved slower this time. Fingertips caressed the top of her thigh where the stocking stopped at bared thigh. The stocking was rolled deliberately slower, exposing more thigh to his view. She paused slightly at her knee as fingers moved down her calf and back up, as if smoothing out the stocking before the rolling commenced again. Down past her knee. Down over a slender calf before being slipped off her heel and the rest of her foot, exposing painted red, neatly trimmed, toenails. The stocking joined its mate. The newly made nude leg joined its partner on the floor.

"I'd say, one last hand, hm?"

 

[LordUsagi]

Most men would have stared at her panties when being that close to them, or ogled her breasts as she bent over.
He however just stared mesmerized at her hands as they seductively removed her stockings. No matter what happened from now on in he felt content that he had already won.

"Yes I would think this is the last hand."

He waited for her to settle back down before he returned to his seat.

"Should we spice up the last hand?"

He had a wicked gleam in his eye brought on by intense arousal.

 

[DarkWarrioress]

Now, what did he have in mind? There was a twinkle in his eyes that spelled wickedness. She was just starting to get to know him, but that gleam, that twinkle, meant mischief and of a naughty nature. The tip of her tongue slid from between her lips, curling upward to rest on her upper lip as she gave thought to his question.

"What exactly are you proposing?"

Her mind raced with all manner of ideas. First and foremost, he was half naked man and she was more than half naked. Though her bra contained her full breasts, she knew damn well how they swelled above the cups. Her lace panties were high cut, modestly covering assets, yes but still left a great deal uncovered. So, what exactly did he have in mind?

While she waited for his answer, the cards were gathered before they were set before him.

Her deal.

 

[LordUsagi]

"Well it is your deal and you can choose the game."

He ran his eyes over her body, feeling a greater stirring below in his loins. He just hoped she didn't notice just yet.

"We have agreed that this hand is going to be the last, but that doesn't mean we can't bet other things."

He smiled

"Intimate things...I mean I saw how keen you were for the massage...so we can bet services," he grinned, "though they have to involve touch."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

She picked up the cards with a soft laugh.

"Of course, touch. Gee, why didn't I think of that?"

The look she tossed him spoke of gentle sarcasm but nothing harsh, but all in good fun.

"I'll think about that one. Okay. Game time. I know."

Her lips donned a slow grin.

"Five card stud. Nothing wild. Roll your own."

She waited. With mischief in her eyes.

 

[LordUsagi]

He nodded enthusiastically

"Sounds good to me."

After taking a sip of his tea he grinned.

"Okay so we agree the ante is our remaining clothes," he winked, "all further bets are for other...things."

 

[DarkWarrioress]

"No. We didn't agree. The way I figured it, this would be the last round in determining a winner. With five card stud, I'm going to need what I have left to bet and even then, I'll have to get creative."

She set the deck on the table for him to cut.

"I'll deal two cards face down and you roll the one you want to show and then we bet. So, yeah," she gave him an impish grin, "we're going to get creative here, real soon."

 

[LordUsagi]

He laughed while he cut the deck.

"Looking forward to it...your creative betting."

He smiled

"Not beating you, as I a gentleman never take pride in defeating a woman," he couldn't hold back his grin.

 

[DarkWarrioress]

She paused in dealing out the first cards to shoot him a look.

"Oh, I just bet you are."

Then in rapid succession, she dealt him two face down cards and then herself the same thing. As she was the dealer for this final go around, she waited for him to roll over his first card. In the meantime, she peeked at her own.

"And as a gentleman, I'm sure you take no glory in defeating a woman, but I sure as hell think that doesn't mean you won't enjoy the consequences of said defeat."

Her eyes dared him to say otherwise.
