Compersion: The Star-Crossed Stag E-BOOK

Robert Franklin was a man of experience, his life a tapestry of triumphs and misfortunes woven together. At the pinnacle of his career, he had tasted success, only to have it snatched away by the cruel hands of fate when the CEO of his company was arrested in a scandalous corporate debacle. Undeterred, he ventured into the treacherous waters of the hedge fund world, but even there, a fluke computer malfunction conspired to sink his dreams.

Yet, amidst the tumultuous tides of his life, a beacon of hope emerged – Nina, a radiant beauty twenty years his younger, belied a depth of soul that resonated with Robert's own. Their affair was a forbidden fruit, ripe with passion and longing, for she was married to another. But in the throes of their desire, they discovered a love that transcended mere physical intimacy.

It was Robert who first broached the idea of opening their relationship to other lovers for her alone, a daring proposition born of his profound trust in Nina's devotion. At first, the suggestion seemed a mere fantasy, a tantalizing "what if" to be explored in the throes of passion. But as they delved deeper into the realms of compersion – the joy of witnessing one's partner's pleasure with another – their bond grew stronger, their love elevated to a higher plane. "Babe, we've reached a crazy new level," she commented.

Erotic moments punctuated their journey, as they exchanged searing fantasies of Nina's sensual trysts with other men or the forbidden delights of a threesome.

This newfound openness was not without its roots, for Robert had once encountered a remarkable couple – a stag and his vixen – whose profound love and trust had left an indelible mark on his thinking. It was their example that emboldened him to pursue this path with Nina, to tear down the boundaries of societal norms and embrace a love that knew no limits.

But even as their bond deepened, forces beyond their control conspired to keep them apart. Nina's unexpected pregnancies, born of her marriage to another man, erected barriers that threatened to sever their connection. And when the specter of COVID-19 loomed over the world, Nina was forced to flee to Europe, putting an ocean between their yearning hearts.

In the midst of this tumult, Robert's entrepreneurial spirit burned bright, driving him to pursue his dream of launching a company and securing the capital to make it a reality. Yet, even here, fate seemed to mock him, as his incredible streak of bad luck persisted, throwing obstacle after obstacle in his path.

The book weaves metaphors like sailing to symbolize the unpredictability of life, while their resistance to holding hands in public becomes a poignant representation of the forces keeping their love at bay. Robert's own past experiences – from dating an exhibitionist to exploring the thrills of a threesome with another man – serve as a tapestry against which his newfound desires with Nina are cast in bold relief.

And through it all, the specter of Robert's father looms large, a man who instilled in him the drive to forge his own path as an entrepreneur and to marry only for true love. His father's extraordinary talent as a pianist, a skill Robert could never quite replicate, becomes a reminder of the heights to which human potential can soar when unfettered by the constraints of convention.

Their story is a testament to the boundless depths of human emotion, a daring exploration of love's limitless potential when freed from the shackles of societal norms. And though their paths diverged, the indelible mark they left on each other's souls would forever be a reminder that true love knows no bounds, save those we choose to accept.
