Will fuck for food and shelter

Back in early 2019 I was travelling on my way back home. I was 48 divorced and not on good terms with my ex-wife or my 2 children. Anyway, I was fairly well off with nothing more to pay my ex-wife and children were working their own jobs and required nothing more from me. As I travelled back, I drove thru a small town and as I left there was a woman holding a sign saying Will Fuck for Food and Shelter. I took little notice at first, only after I had passed it hit me as they say. Intrigued I decided to check it out and turned around and stop to asked why she was doing what she was doing or wasn't some of prank. She was 46 and had been kicked out of home by her ex-partner, who had a younger woman now and she hadn't any money or anywhere to go either. No locals would help her and so hitchhiking was all she had to go somewhere else and nobody stopping she done up the sign with lipstick. I then asked is the offer serious or not, serious if the conditions of food and shelter are met was her response. She wasn't a centerfold model, but she was easy on the eye as the saying goes. I said I get her fed and give her shelter and so we became travelling companions. The next town we stopped at a diner and had a meal and then on to my home outside of the next town. The shelter was provided, and it was time for the fuck. But first she wanted to clean up and so we showered together and then had sex twice and again in the morning. As I had been away, I only had can food in the house and so we went to the local diner and had breakfast then back to my house and more sex. She kept her word, and I liked the sex. So, I told she could stay as long as she wanted, and she started looking for work there wasn't much going at all and then she got job at the local supermarket it didn't pay enough to rent a room and eat as it was only 20 hours a week. But with her living with me and so having shelter and food provided in return for sex. She stayed with me as time passed her weekly hours slowly increased, but we had started a sort of partnership. Preferring to live together and then the pandemic and lockdown came and her job was gone. We isolated together and our partnership turned in to a full relationship by the end the lockdown. We were ready to take the next step and we married and adopted a young girl 8, her mother was a friend of my now wife and the mother got Covid and didn't survive. The girl was a ward of the state, and my wife didn't want her ending up like she up until she met me. So, we applied and now have an adopted daughter, and everything is great, and my children have started calling me every now and then, that's all so far but it's an improvement over no contact.
