Grace Parker chatted with the other company wives as the mid size Lear charter jet punched its way through the rarified air high above the Atlantic. With stops to refuel it was going to take fourteen hours to get from the west coast to Nice and it would be another hour by car to Monaco after that.
Her husband Paul sat up front with his management team, going through objectives for the trip one last time, as if the main reason for going to the Formula1 Grand Prix was business. It wasn’t but it helped from a tax perspective if they could make it look like that. Meetings and schmoozing clients had been planned in but there was plenty of free time too.
It was the first year that Paul’s company had become a sponsor of one of the F1 teams in Europe. Not a top team but one of the middle ranking ones. A team who could do well at the slow Monte Carlo circuit with a bit of luck. Becoming a sponsor gave Paul and Grace access to some of the biggest events during race week as well as access to the pit during the race itself. Grace knew Paul was excited about that, he was a big race car fan and as for Grace, she couldn’t wait to meet the celebrities and the rich and famous. Perhaps even the Prince himself.
Not even Paul could have imagined when he’d started writing code in his parents’ basement that twenty years later he’d be the head of a billion dollar software business. Grace certainly hadn’t predicted it but she’d seen potential in him and fairly early on she’d decided she could do a lot worse for herself than Paul. So she’d nailed her colours to Paul’s mast so to speak and married him.
Within reason Grace could have had anyone she’d wanted back then and Paul had known that. He’d been a good provider she’d been a loyal and supportive wife to him. They’d made a good team and stood the test of time when many others hadn’t.
Now she was 39 and he 42. Through hard work in the gym Grace had retained her looks and when the gym hadn’t worked the surgeon’s knife had. Grace still looked good and she knew it.
But after twenty years of marriage however nobody could blame them for letting things go a bit stale in the bedroom. Their sex life had tailed off gradually, almost imperceptibly over a number of years and now it was a shadow of what it used to be. It frustrated Grace and worried her too. She had the body of someone much younger and the need to put it to good use. But she also felt that if Paul wasn’t interested in her then he might look elsewhere, even though he’d never shown any indication of wanting to do so. Grace wished she could have said the same. Sometimes she looked at the young men’s’ bodies in the gym and wanted their muscular flesh touching hers. But she was a good wife and her fantasies stayed just that.
Grace had thought that a trip to Europe might be just the thing she and Paul needed to rekindle the spark. So the two of them had decided to take a month out, starting with the Grand Prix followed by a grand tour of Europe.
She’d constructed an itinerary for their grand tour that included several romantic capital cities as well as a yoga retreat in Tuscany for her and a photography course for Paul. He’d enjoyed taking photos when they’d first met, especially of her.
As the plane began its descent into Nice Grace felt a flutter of excitement in her stomach.
