MELISSA

I’m beat; I think the
captain was trying to kill me that time. I watched his eyes as he looked at me
while his hands played over my body. There were still little shockwaves
coursing through my system and I was riding on a high. The combination of the
ring on my finger and the things he’d said to me as he loved me, were a potent
elixir that made me feel like I could move mountains. It was still hard to
believe that this wonderful man was actually in love with me. I saw it in his
eyes and felt it in his touch. It was there in the way he took care of me, the
way he tried to shield me from everything. No one had ever stood between my mom
and me before. Knowing that he would and did, went a long way to erasing a lot
of the destructive hold she had on me. Now he’s leering at me and I know we’re
nowhere near finished.

“I love this."

"What?"
He was in a teasing mood; his once again very hard cock was resting on my Mons
as he plucked my nipple with one hand and rubbed my tummy with the other.

"This." He grabbed a handful of my
fleshy stomach making me quiver. "What do you say we get started on
planting my seed in there?”

It was all too much; it
felt as if my heart would burst in my chest. The way he looked into my eyes so
seriously as he said it. The emotion in his voice; this was not my reality, was
it? I couldn’t find my voice to answer him. All I could do was stare back at
him as he teased my body.

CALEB

“You want to make a baby with me sweet Melissa?”
She nodded her head wildly.

“How
many you want?”

“Caleb!” I slid into her wet heat to the hilt
going after her cervix. Trying to get as deep inside her as I could. She bucked
beneath me and pulled my body flush against hers. I started stroking in and out
of her as I held her eyes with mine. I think at that moment I was deeper inside
my woman than I’d ever been before.

“One or two at a time
baby I’m putting in an order. I want to plant two in there right fucking now.”
Her eyes rolled back in her head and she flailed around beneath me as I drilled
her into the bed. I didn’t let up on her though because I meant what I’d said,
tonight I was on a mission. It would be perfect to breed her on the same night
I put my ring on her finger, fuck waiting for the honeymoon. Her body grew hot
beneath me as I marked her, biting into her flesh even as I pounded her pussy
without mercy.

Fuck what anyone says
the missionary has got to be the best fucking position. Don’t get me wrong, I
like hitting her from behind but this way I can reach everything I need. Though
sometimes like now I have to be a gymnast to reach her because she’s all over
the place as she fucks back at me wildly.

I lowered my head and
sucked her nipple between my teeth. My cock picked up more speed as she did everything
I’d taught her, and massaged him with her pussy muscles until I was ready to
howl. I bit her nipple as I felt her hot pussy juice cover my cock and then it
was my turn as I emptied inside her again pounding into her until there was
nothing left. “We’ll keep going until I succeed.” I barely had enough breath
left in me to utter those words as I slipped out of her.

When I could move again
I rolled to my side gathering her in. With her head on my shoulder and our arms
wrapped securely around each other, I gave her my heart. “It’s always going to
be you and me from now on babe. No matter what, you’ll never have to face
anything alone again. I promise to love, honor and cherish the fuck out of you
for always. Your job is to be happy, just enjoy the fuck out of our life
together because I plan to make it one hell of a ride.” I felt the tears on her
face when she took my lips with hers.

“Dada, dada.” I dropped
to me knees and opened my arms for my two-year old firebrand as she ran across
the room to me. Her aunt stood back nervously as we both held our breaths. My
baby girl was like her dad; she wanted everything in a hurry. She went from
crawling to running, there was no walking in between.

“Hello sweetie.” I picked her up and kissed her
chubby cheeks and squeezed her, making her giggle.

“Where’s my wife?” I held my daughter close as
she tried to climb my chest. Lisa went back to stirring whatever it is she was
making on the stove and there was no sign of my wife.

“She’s upstairs with the
baby.” I started towards the stairs with my little princess in my arms babbling
away at me. Probably telling state secrets. The house looked like a tornado had
ran through it which meant my son had been up to his usual task of seek and
destroy.

I stopped in the doorway
to the nursery where they were both fast asleep in the rocking chair, mother
and son. I kissed my daughter’s head as I looked at the rest of my family. In
the last three years that family had grown somewhat and was still growing. The
large mound of her pregnant tummy told part of that story. In a few weeks we
were expecting another boy or girl to add to the two we already had.

“I can feel you staring
captain.” She smiled tiredly as she opened her eyes to me. I walked in and
kissed her hello before placing one child on her feet before taking the other
from his mother’s arms to put him in his crib. It didn’t matter what kind if
day I had, or how tired I might be. As soon as I crossed the door in the
evenings and saw everything that I loved and held dear, everything else faded
away.

Melissa’s grown even
more beautiful in the last few years if that were possible. With each pregnancy
she would glow in such a way that I found it hard to keep my hands to myself.
Subjecting her to even more of what got her there in the first place.

 
She’d long since moved beyond her hang ups
about her weight and had blossomed into the most self assured and confident
woman I knew.

A lot of that had to do
with the new people in her life, like my family and her sister. Though there
was one downside to having them around I wouldn’t change it for the world. What
could be the downside you ask? Well let’s just say that Melissa gets a lot more
whippings than spankings and they could mostly be traced back to something one
of them encouraged her to do.

It started with my
godmother and her damn magazine. The shit was the bane of my existence.
Suddenly she was into photo shoots and runways on the off weekend if they
talked me into it. She’d hired on more help at the florist and had since opened
another store because of all the exposure.

The first time I saw my
wife half naked in one of those damn magazines I’d almost lost my shit. Of
course it was too late to stop the fuck since the sneaks waited until it was on
the shelf to show me. I had a hard time with that not only because the magazine
was a national publication but also because the men under me thought it was
funny to have pinups of her all over the damn base. She’d got her ass whipped
but good for that one and that was the last time she wore anything less than a
dress for one of her shoots. When it wasn’t the modeling shit it was some other
hair brained idea that either her sister or mine came up with and don’t get me
started on my own mother. She was the worst of the fucking bunch.

Funnily enough she
finally had a daughter to do all the things my sister wouldn’t do with her. The
difference between that situation and the one with Maureen is that my sister
Silla
didn’t care. She was only too happy to have mom off
her back. Dad and I were barely hanging onto our sanity by a thread dealing
with this bunch. It was as if Melissa was making up for lost time and she had
more than enough people willing to help her break out of her shell. The only
time I had any peace is when she was breeding that’s why her ass has a two year
old, an elven month old and one due in a few weeks.

Maureen has been out of
our lives for three years now and she’s not missed. I think that was Melissa’s
last stumbling block to true happiness and in the end we’d both dealt with her.
I was still to this day proud of my woman and the way she’d stood up to her
tyrant and taken her sister out from under her. I still kept watch over her to
make sure she never again slipped back into that world where she believed she
was less than. Nothing much ahs changed since the babies came in fact bonding
over parenthood has made us even closer.

From the night I put my
ring on her finger until now she’s been growing into herself and it did my
heart good to see her spreading her wings, doing whatever her heart desired.
That’s when she wasn’t running my ass ragged with her shit.

We’d celebrated our
engagement and given ourselves a week of quiet before tackling the situation
with her mom and sister. I don’t know what it was exactly but it seemed that
putting my ring on her finger had unlocked something inside my girl. When she
wasn’t mooning over her ring she was making wedding plans and finding ways to
disrupt my peaceful existence. She was like a three year old in her newfound
pleasure in life. She wanted to try everything at once, all the things she’d
denied herself because of her misguided belief that she wasn’t good enough or
pretty enough.

A week after our
engagement we’d gone to see her mother and Lisa. I’d had a lot more time to
stud the situation at that meeting than the first. I read body language and
listened more for what was not being said than to the empty platitudes that
were spewing around the room. To this day I have no idea what the fuck her real
problem was with my baby and quite frankly I don’t give a fuck. But maybe it’s
like mom said, the problem is not with anyone else, the problem lies within
Maureen herself. She’s a bitter unhappy woman and it seems she wanted everyone
else around her, especially her daughters to be the same.

She’d started off trying
to pretend everything was hunky dory between her and Melissa, but thankfully my
woman wasn’t falling for her shit and neither was I. “So when are we going to
start with wedding plans? I’m sure the governor and his wife will want to have
a say in the arrangements as well...”

“Actually mom Caleb and I are planning
everything together.”

“What’s that? The governor’s son can’t have just
any wedding. He has lots of important friends and I will not have you
embarrassing me with your plebian ideas.” The snake had come out to play at
that point it seemed.

“You need to hire a
planner of course, did you set a date as yet?” She’d gone on and on and it had
taken all my control not to jump in, but to wait and see what if anything
Melissa was going to do. We’d talked it out before we came here today. My job
was to get Lisa alone somehow and feel her out. I was a bit worried about
leaving my girl alone with this dragon, but she assured me that she was okay,
that she could handle it.

“Why don’t I leave you
ladies to discuss this wedding business? Lisa what say you and I go take a look
around the grounds?” I didn’t give anyone a chance to answer
one
way
or the other. As soon as we were alone I’d got to the point. “Lisa
I’m going to ask you a question and I want you to be honest with me. This is a
little hasty because we just met but I don’t believe in beating around the
bush. Your sister and I would like to know if you’d like to come and stay with
us.”

“Caleb I don’t think I understand. Why would you
want me to come live with you? You’re now getting married aren’t you going to
need your privacy?”

That answer and the look in her eyes were more
than enough but I needed her to say it. She didn’t laugh off the suggestion or
make any excuses about being fine where she was right now. Her only concern was
encroaching on our space.

“Don’t worry about that
just say the word and we’ll handle the rest. Your sister says you’re interested
in design that you were actually accepted to a leading institute for art and design
but your mom wouldn’t let you go. If this is true I’ll see to it that you get
to go but I need you to tell me what you want.”

“Mom won’t like it.” She
started ringing her hands in that way I’d seen Melissa do so often. There was
hope in her eyes and so much more. It was almost hard to watch. I would leave
it up to Melissa to have a private talk with her later and get to the bottom of
everything but right now my only concern was getting her out of the house.

“Do you want to go to school Lisa or do you want
to stay here?”

“If
it’s possible I’d really like to go but mom will never allow it.”

“Are you willing to leave here today and come
with us?” I held up my hand to stop her when she started to mention her mom
again.

“You’re almost twenty
one Lisa more than old enough to make this decision on your own. Now I won’t
lie to you. Your sister and I saw something the night of the party that neither
of us liked.” Her face reddened and she hung her head in shame.

“The embarrassment is
not yours Lisa, you have nothing to feel ashamed about. I don’t know all that
has gone on in your life but I want you to know that if you leave here today
with your sister and I, we will do everything we can to see that you get a
chance at the life you want. Not what anyone else wants; do you understand?”
She nodded her head and squared her shoulders.

I’d gotten what I needed
to make my move and my woman had been alone with that dragon for way too long.
So it was time to head back. “No matter what happens just stick to your plans.
When we get back inside I want you to excuse yourself and go pack whatever you
want to take with you.” She looked scared and hopeful at once and I wondered
how one woman could’ve done this to her own flesh.

 
Back in the house Melissa was going to war. I
held my hand up to keep Lisa quiet at the door. “You’re despicable. I’ve taken
your shit my whole life but no more. Caleb and I will do things our way and you
have nothing to say about it.”

“How dare you speak to me like that? I am your
mother, I’ve done everything for you and this is the thanks I get?”

“What have you done for me other than ridicule
and put me down my whole life because I wasn’t thin? You made me hate myself
all through my teen years until now. You’re a poisonous human being and I hate
the fact that I left my sister here with you. Had I known what you really are I
would never have left her.”

I saw Lisa tear up and told her to go around to
the front door and enter the house that way so she could get started packing.
The way my girl was going I didn’t think we’d have much longer before we were
asked to leave.

“I would thank you to
keep a civil tongue in your head when talking to me. Don’t think because you’ve
somehow fooled Caleb into marrying you that you can get away with speaking to
me like this. I don’t know what it is that he sees in you but I don’t give this
marriage of yours too long. Then what are you going to do? You’ll come running
back to me.”

“I haven’t run to you
for anything since I was three years old. You ran dad off because he loved me I
know that now. I had a long talk with him, in fact he’s coming out to see us in
a few weeks and he’ll be here for the wedding.”

I’d encouraged her to
reach out to her dad after she’d told me the story of him being gone one day
with no explanation when she was maybe six or seven years old. Before that day
he’d been kind to her. He used to sneak her candy when her mom would refuse her
any kind of snack.

When I heard the story
of her starving the young child even at such a tender age I wanted to go strangle
her then and there. I’d let Roland know what I thought of his leaving his
children in such a situation but he said she’d threatened to make his life a
living hell if he tried to take her kids. Apparently he’d been having an affair
with his secretary and if word got out he would’ve lost face in the business
world whatever the fuck that means. He claimed he supported them and was still
paying for the house she still lived in.

 
Back in the room where I was still hidden out
of sight Melissa finished my job. I’d thought I was going to have to be the one
to put her mother in her place but she seemed to have it under control. “You
did everything you could to tear me down all my life mom and I don’t know why.
But now I have someone who loves me and who’s shown me the truth about myself.
You tried to destroy me but you failed.” She saw me standing in the doorway
then, and I gave her a nod to let her know that Lisa was ours.

“I saw the way you treated my baby sister at the
governor’s mansion and I was embarrassed for you. You are no more of a mother
to her than you were to me.
 
That’s why
Caleb and I are taking her out of here today.”

“You’re
not taking my daughter anywhere.”

“Watch me.”

That was the last time
we saw her. She’d made all kinds of threats but I reminded her that Lisa was
old enough to leave it she so chose and that had been the end of that. She’d
been invited to the wedding because when it’s all said and done my girl has a
soft heart. She didn’t show up though which was no loss as far as I’m concerned
and Melissa didn’t take it too hard. I know that no one can take the place of a
mother but she didn’t deserve that distinction. So I shared mine with my new
wife and she was only too happy for the job. Now she had more than Jen and I to
tell her how special she is.

Our daughter was born
three months after the wedding. Lisa had gone off to California to study and
was doing well now that she was out from under her mother and the two sisters
were back to the closeness they’d shared as kids. I never asked my wife what
had transpired in the talk she’d had with her sister but when she’d come to bed
that night she’d cried her heart out and I’d made a silent vow that it would be
the last time anyone made her cry.
