Consequences Pt. 10A

"You're just jealous David."

"You bet I am, but why the hell do you think I'm here? If I was just jealous would I be here or at home with 6 beautiful women right now?"

No answer came so he ran his fingers along the crack between their bottom cheeks all the way down to their clits. One in each hand he repeated it several times until he could hear their breath slightly quicken.

So here's the thing, I have been wrangling with what to do all day, my stomachs in knots, I can't eat my food and I feel sick at facing what I am going to say next. So you have a week, you go fuck that man and come home, you tell us where you are and what time. You let us know when you are coming home and let us know if there's a change of plan. It won't be me monitoring you, it will probably Jo. Don't bother trying to pull wool over her eyes, she is just as disappointed in you pathetic pair as I am, I had you down as being smarter than falling for a player like him. I don't want to know what you're doing but I want to know that you are safe at all times. Got that? No Kissing and no Anal and make sure there's no recording device. He added as an afterthought he nearly forgot, then added and watch out for date rape drugs.

The response was muffled so he put the spatula to good use again, back where he started. "I couldn't hear you," he said. He thought he heard them say "He's a good man, he wouldn't." He started laughing again but couldn't feel it anymore, their naivety at being so easily played was beyond his comprehension.

"Are you really that stupid, don't you think that the best players aren't the ones who come across as good men who say all the right things and are caring and want the best for you. It's classic bullshit and you should know it. But no you go make your mistakes and we'll see if you survive."

He sighed and steadied his temper before continuing. "Don't come back to our bed until it's been over for at least a week, but if it's not over don't get in my bed again. You're probably in the safest place for now while you decide what your future will be. Ohh and don't start thinking you're hard done by. Ana's in a very similar situation except she's inviting me to meet her new love interest and believe it or not, she's talking to me all the way, I wonder how long that will last?"

He strolled by both of them again and let his fingers do the walking stroking their pussies. "I love you both very much and today I have found out just how much, when I'm gone phone your man, have a night with him whatever as many as it takes in a week. If I don't see you again I hope it's because you have found a better life." With that final wish he walked out of the house, started to drive then stopped. Banging his head on the steering wheel he punished himself over and over for being such a weak pathetic excuse for a man until finally he allowed the tears to flow for two more lost loves.

Eventually he convinced himself to close off this part of his experience and get on with life. He saw on his mobile that Aleesha had called him back. On his way home he decided to ring Amber and Louise first, he was worried about them. "Hiya lover" was the chirpy answer. He did his best to return the greeting. Continuing he explained "As soon as I sent you that message I regretted it, the two guys are potentially multi rapists and one has a father who is a policeman, thought to be covering it up."

"Shit," came from both girls who now had him on hands free.

"So could you just look back at newspapers in the library, it was when Olivia was 14 or 15, don't let the librarian know what you're looking for, if you're asked tell them you're doing background research on Nina, an up and coming star in New York." They giggled, enjoying the cloak and danger stuff, before saying "of course no problem." Then they caught up on their work and what was happening back home by which time he had reached home and was sitting in his driveway.

He selected Aleesha's contact on his phone, then changed his mind, quickly disconnected and typed a message. Before he finished she rang back. "Sorry Aleesha, I am like a loose cannon, everywhere I turn there seems to be an enemy ship. She laughed at his metaphor; they were becoming wilder every time she spoke to him."I've interrupted wild love making to ring you, this better be good." She teased

"I'm on my way," he joked.

"You should be so lucky," she joked back.

"Ohh I would, I would, I bet you're a wildcat."

"That's for my lovers to know and you to find out" she joked again and then realised what she had said. 'Did she mean that?' things had gone cold with Michael since his wife made a play for him. 'Just once or maybe twice,' she thought, 'I would love to find out whether he's as good as he looks.' Olivia certainly thought so.

"I am going to accept that as a challenge Missy. I've always thought you were hot."

She felt a frisson of excitement, she was hooked. "And what would all your ladies think?" she tried hoping despite herself that he would keep the flirting going.

"My ladies know you're in our family, you just didn't need us."

"I see so that makes a big difference does it?"

"Ohh yes like I said, you're welcome anytime, no strings attached."

"and my son?"

"Yep he will just be the eldest for a while."

"I can imagine."

"And I come unconditionally too"

"Mmmm was that another of your metaphors?"

He laughed "Say the word and I am on my way" he continued laughing.

She chickened out just as she was going to say yes.

He was disappointed and she was too, when she disconnected she banged the phone repeatedly against her head. 'What is the matter with you girl it's just sex' but that of course was the problem, she was afraid of losing her heart again.

*************************************************************************************

At home, the women were desperate to hear all the news, and he gave them a potted version of the facts leaving out a lot of the personal stuff especially in the bedroom. Ana and Jo caught his eye and he acknowledged them, he was really surprised to see Rose there. He wasn't sure how he felt about the ex-wife of a man who was trying to take his wives away. Yes he realised he thought of them as his wives now. He asked how far away Rose lived and discovered to his surprise she was from out of town, more than half an hour away. "I am going to find her some clothes," said Jo, becoming concerned as David seemed to be uncertain. David said "Jo, would you mind if I had a private word with Rose?" Jo looked worried but she couldn't object.

They went to David's office and sat opposite each other. "Do you mind having a chat?" he asked.

"No, I expected it, to be honest. You want to know why I was there today and why I am still here."

He nodded, grateful for her honesty. "I was there because I had some stupid idea I would be getting my own back on him but it didn't take me long to recognize that he is desperate to get into your ladies." She took a breath "Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't climb over you to get to him, he was the biggest mistake of my life. He thinks he is something special because of that cock!" He had to laugh at that, he had heard the fallacy said before, but some women still had the kink.

She went on to regale him with some of the man's shortcomings and misdeeds, then getting to the meeting at the pub. "Your ladies arrived not that much before me but when I got there he was already getting them to play with him and he had his hands on their pussies."

He was not surprised so she continued.

"Are you throwing them out?"

"No, that's not how we do things here." They have to find out for themselves, it's their decisions but I don't accept seconds or being second best, and if he does anything to hurt them mentally or physically he'll wish he was never born." He was so angry when he said that she somehow knew it would be true. "I'm sorry," he said, "for some reason there's men out there who think it's ok to mess with other people's women and I've had enough of it."

Rose had heard a lot about this place during this visit and some of the problems with Olivia during the course of her day with them. "You're pretty scary," she uttered.

"Ohh," he came down as quick as he was riled, "I do apologise. I have had a really shitty day and it's all becoming a bit much."

She softened seeing the hurt in his eyes, "I am so sorry, you must be hurting and I'm making it worse." He gave her a weak smile, she was right. "I am still sorry though, that was totally out of order. I don't want to give any impression that I would ever lift a finger against one of my ladies. So what's kept you here?"

"Well Jo's delightful company of course and I am fascinated by your retreat. I wish there was one when we broke up, the bastard never gave me anything."

"It's a common story for many of our ladies."

"Surely not Jo?"

"No she was in some ways a worse case, for her entire life she was put down and made to feel worthless, she used to hide away and not come out even when she left home and then she was coerced into coming to one of our gatherings and she has never left, we all love her, she is an absolute delight."

David was becoming conscious of a slightly probing nature to her questions throughout her visit, "What do you do for a living?" he asked without warning. She coloured immediately and he had guessed right.

He sat thinking fast, then said with controlled anger, "If your aim is to get a story that will destroy what we have here, I am going to tell you now that I have not given you permission to obtain any information that will be used outside these doors. If you publish any information whatsoever you will destroy what we are trying to do here. If that's what you are trying to do that's up to you, but I will fight your Paper through the courts until the bitter end. You have lied to gain access to this retreat at a difficult time and taken advantage of our hospitality. You have also furnished yourself to draw out two of our women who are suffering from bad marriages and you have offered yourself as a prostitute. She sat stunned, was she being threatened? she quickly ran through his words, what about when he got angry, not actually. What would her editor say?
