After he does her, the rest of the crew join in, sweeping her up in her first gangbang.~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~Crystal parked her car just inside the construction site, near the front gate. Harry had bought her the expensive Mercedes as a wedding present and she wasn't about to put it in among the bulldozers and backhoes."I just need to give your father his briefcase," she said."He always forgets things," the ten-year-old said. "Can I stay and listen to the radio?""Sure." It was a cool morning and she wouldn't be long. It was a short walk to the trailer that served as an on-site office for Harry's construction business.During the short walk from the car, she noticed several rough-looking guys giving her lusty looks. It made her glad she'd dressed nice. The silk blouse framed her breasts, and a bright red, tight, short skirt showed her body off; her high heels gave her legs a nice look. The crew was mostly young guys; they looked to be in their early twenties. It was shallow, but they were hot in a primitive way and she liked that her body got their attention. When a couple of them whistled at her, she felt even better. A woman who just turned thirty liked the reassurance, liked feeling she was still attractive, and interesting to young men.A young Hispanic guy rushed up as she approached the trailer. "Can I help you?"She smiled at him, enjoying the sight of his rippling arm muscles. His tight tee shirt bulged with his enormous biceps. He was only a couple of inches taller than she was, but he had the confident air of a big man. "I'm not sure if you can or not."
