Mines an unusual story and in a way a very deep secret. We had both waited for our honeymoon before consumatting our love. We were both virgins and had only really kissed and fumbled. My parents were very strict. Anyway the whole day was beautiful from the ceremony to the wedding dinner. Later we had a party with disco. I had rather a lot of champagne and later that night retired to our honeymoon suite. I had picked out the perfect white nightie with satin panties. Anyway I turned out the lights waiting for him and what I now know as being several hours. I heard him come in and lay there waiting for him. As he got into bed we kissed and cuddled passionately. His hands and fingers were everywhere, it was very exciting. He finally removed my panties but he teased me for ages. I had my experience of an orgasm for the first time, it was beautiful. Then he began to make love to me. It was the first time I had ever felt anything so big slide inside me. It hurt awfully and I knew it made me gasp but it got better with each stroke and soon I had a second. It was absolutely brilliant then he came inside and I knew I was complete. We both then fell asleep. When I woke up next morning my husband was gone I quickly got dressed and went downstairs, only to find my husband asleep with some of his drunken friends in the lounge and still in their wedding suits. I was shocked. My honeymoon night of passion and my virginity had been taken by a stranger, though somebody from the wedding.
