"I don't know what that's about. Sure she has her period, but if her panties were soiled she wouldn't leave them at school. She would bring them to me to be washed."
The two women were concerned. Adrianna said, "Everyone in the car. We are going to the school."
The three of them went to Elisabet's school. It wasn't a real school. It was a daycare for challenged adults. They took Elisabet outside to a picnic table, sat and talk with her. Emma gently asked her questions. "How are you?"
"Good."
"I understand you put your panties on toilet tank sometimes. Why?"
"I'm not supposed to tell. It's a secret."
"I'm your sister. We don't keep secrets from each other."
Elisabet said, "You and Mom tell me I should always wear clean underwear."
"Yes, that's right."
"If there are fresh panties in the bathroom, I change."
"I see. Who told you to do this?" Emma asked.
"Is it bad?
"No, no. Wearing clean clothes is a good idea. Who does this for you?"
"Billy."
"Oh I see."
"Yes. When he visits he waves at me to let me know clean panties are in the bathroom and I go in an change."
"And you leave the dirty ones?"
"Yes. Billy takes them."
"Who is Billy?"
"He's Thomas's older brother."
"Ah . . . Thomas Weaver, one of your friends here. Ok. Thank you for explaining that."
Emma was furious. She stayed calm for her sister's sake, but she felt like she was going to explode.
Grandmother signaled to Drew to calm Emma down. Adrianna said, "Elisabet, let's go get your things. You are going home early today."
As soon as Elisabet was out of earshot, Emma said, "I'm going to kill that bastard!"
"Hold on. Take a breath. Let's think this over," Drew said. "First to be on the safe side, Elisabet will take a vacation from this school. Then we will investigate this Billy Weaver. What is he doing? Is he acting alone? Are other girls being mistreated? Emma, we have our own detective agency. Let's use it."
Emma was so mad that she started to cry. She clenched her fist and stomped her feet. Drew knew how she felt. He felt the same way. He embraced her and held her tight.
"Let it out. Let it all out. We will get to the bottom of this."
Grams dropped Drew off at the detective agency. Next stop was Elisabet and Emma's house. They got some things. Then they went to grandmother's house. They figured Billy might know where Elisabet lived, but was not likely to know where her grandmother did.
Drew filled Barry and the rest of the men in on what he knew. They rolled into action.
Barry began shouting out orders. "Frank, run a background check on this guy. Ed, get you crew together. Find him and put him under round the clock surveillance."
"Charlie, I want your people in his house or apartment as soon as possible. Get me more information. See if there is any incriminating evidence. Everyone be careful and discreet. We don't know for sure there is a real problem. And for now let's keep open the option that we can turn this over to the authorities and have him prosecuted."
Everyone scrambled to their tasks. Drew felt useless. He asked, "Uncle Barry, is there anything I can do?"
"Not at the moment. I am sending a couple of men to guard Adrianna's house. Go with them. Re-assure the ladies. Be ready. We may need you skills. I will be in touch."
Drew's dad and cousin Curt accompanied Drew to grandmother's house. They had dinner with the women and then excused themselves. The guardians checked the locks and the perimeter. They would take turns being on watch 24/7 until this was over.
Elisabet watched cartoons as Drew filled Emma and his grandmother in on what was happening. They all wanted answers. None came that night.
^^^
It was pre-dawn. Drew was still sleeping when he saw slender white hands cradling a young black woman's face. The black face had a black-eye and a bruised and swollen cheek. Drew woke and said, "You again. Who are you?"
^^^
Barry showed up as everyone was having breakfast. He announced,"I have news." He looked towards Elisabet and raised his eyebrows. Emma gathered up her sister and said, "Sweetie, we have boring stuff to talk about. Why don't I set up your breakfast in the family room. I bet one of your favorite shows is on TV."
Barry drank coffee and waited for Emma to return. Then he addressed everyone, "This Billy Weaver character purports to be a computer consultant. He works out of the house he inherited when his mother died. He is running a one-stop child porn internet site. He has a chat room where like-minded people can talk and exchange ideas. He has a membership site where photos of children can be seen. His house was full of sick photos. Our guys also found some of Elisabet's underwear. We removed them."
Everyone was shocked. They stared at Barry thinking the worst. Barry said, "From what we could determine, he is a 'looker'. We don't think he physically gets involved with children. We don't believe he ever had children at the house. We think that Elisabet's underwear was as close to acting upon his perverse desires as it got."
"How can you be sure?" Emma asked.
"We talked to his neighbors and thoroughly interviewed him. The authorities have a strong case against him and will be picking up many of his associates. He is under arrest and will be standing trial as soon as he recovers from his injuries. He had a couple of nasty falls down the basement steps. The note he left sign in blood says he was disgusted with his actions and tried to kill himself."
A chorus of knowing "Oh's" were heard in the kitchen. Emma rushed up to her uncle, hugged him and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. Of course, we could not have put a stop to this if Drew had not alerted us to the problem."
Emma turned to her cousin. She hugged him long and hard. She cried on his shoulder. She was so relieved. She whispered, "Thank you" over and over in his ear.
^^^
The doorbell rang. "Drew, can you get that?" his grandmother called out.
He opened the door and was surprised to see Felicity. "Hello," she said quietly. She smiled showing her perfect teeth. Felicity was dressed casually yet elegantly. Drew replied shyly, "Hi." He found her very attractive and thought, "She is so beautiful".
Adrianna served lunch and left the two teenagers alone. They ate and talked. Drew found her to be cool, classy and friendly. She was easy to talk to and easy on the eyes. Her outfit emphasized her shapely legs, narrow waist and ample breasts. Drew enjoyed her company.
Their pleasant lunch date was interrupted by someone pounding on the door and a loud voice crying out "Grandfather! Grandfather!"
Felicity, Drew and Adrianna rushed to the door. They opened it and found Dana, Drew's older sister, and a young black woman. Dana and the woman displayed cuts and bruises evidence of a recent beating. Dana rushed into her grandmother's arms. As tears ran down her face Dana said in a desperate manner, "I need Grandfather's help."
Adrianna hugged Dana. Drew asked, "Sis, what happened? What's wrong?" He looked at the black girl and recognized her. She was the one he had been seeing in his dream.
Sobbing Dana said, "They want to kill us."
Adrianna consoled Dana. Gently she asked, "Who wants to kill you? Tell us what's going on?"
Dana wiped her nose with her sleeve and attempted to regain her composure. She left her grandmother's embrace and held out her hand to the black woman. Addressing everyone she said, "This is Dasha, the love of my life."
Introductions were made and everyone took a seat in the family room. The group looked to Dana expectantly and she said, "Here's the story." Dana took a deep breath and said,
"I'm . . . gay. I left the family when I turned 18 because I wasn't ready to come out. I couldn't tell Mom and Dad who I really was. I knew Grandpa's power would uncover my secret so I left town and the family. In Chicago I met this amazing woman, Dasha. We fell in love and have been living together. We are seriously happy."
Dana looked around. She was re-assured by the kind expressions on her family members' faces. She continued. "Silly me, I was worried about what you might think about me. Not everyone we know is as understanding. Dasha told me about the violent reaction she experienced when she came out to her family. To be safe, we cut ourselves off from her family, but it didn't help. Her uncles tracked us down and beat the shit out of us just because we love each other."
Dana said plaintively, "We've no place to go. I came home to beg Grandfather to take us in. I know the penance that is required of me. I'll do anything if Dasha and I can have a safe place to live together. Is Grandfather home?"
Adrianna replying softly, "Andrew is dead. Your brother is our new leader. He was the gift."
Dana looked to her brother expectantly. He said, "Of course you two are welcome."
Dana hugged her brother. "Thank you."
Adrianna cleared her throat. "Dana, it's not that simple."
The brother and sister looked to their grandmother. She said, "Dana you rejected your family. To re-join us, you have to submit to the leader."
"I know. I will. I do," Dana said meekly.
Adrianna turned to Dasha and said, "How old are you?"
"18."
"The leader has said you are welcome to join us. Since you are an adult, if you wish to become a part of our family and enjoy its wealth and protection, you too must submit."
Dana objected, "She's with me! Can't I . . . "
"No." Grandmother responded firmly. Adrianna and Dana knew what this exchange was about. The rest were in the dark. Dasha asked herself, "What kind of crazy am I getting into?".
Dana was heartsick. She had hoped to spare her partner. She grabbed Dasha's hand. Everyone sat quietly watching the two women. Dana's action drew their attention to the round scar on the back of Dasha's hand. She saw where everyone was looking. She held up her hand and said, "I had lousy parents. It's a cigarette burn."
Everyone cringed. Adrianna broke the awkward silence saying, "To submit means to yield to the power and authority of another. You both must demonstrate this in words and in action."
Adrianna looked to her grandson. "Drew, they must submit as I submitted to you. The family will only accept them if Felicity and I swear that they fully surrendered to you."
Drew was shocked, "Are you saying I have to . . . have sex with my sister?"
"Yes, to completion," Adrianna said unequivocally. She continued, "The whole family has pledged their allegiance to you. To prove my loyalty, I had to publicly give my body to you. So must they."
Drew said, "That's not necessary this time. I . . ."
Adrianna said, "It is our way. Even the "The Sighted One" cannot ignore the law."
She turned to the lesbians and said, "Go to the guest room. Talk it over. Dana, explain everything to Dasha. Come back in within an hour with your answer."
Adrianna gently grasped Dasha's hand and said, "Ours is an incredible story. Drew has the gift of seeing through the eyes of others. This power is used to help the family and the community. I know this is hard to believe. Hopefully, you will believe because Dana has earned your love and trust. Drew will prove our story by telling you things he should not know about you."
She turned to Drew and asked, "Have you met Dasha? Have you seen her before?"
Drew stammered, "I . . . I've never met her or even been to Chicago, but I have seen her through my sister's eyes."
Adrianna ordered him, "Drew, tell her somethings to demonstrate your gift."
"Ah, well. They have a black leather sofa."
"Big deal," Dasha thought. She was beginning to think coming here was a big mistake. She wondered if Dana was another.
Drew was embarrassed to tell some of the other things he had seen, but he knew he had to. He dropped his gaze to the floor and said, "Dasha has a long scar on her left boob . . . I mean her breast. Like she was cut with a knife under her nipple."
Dasha sat up straight. She was listening now.
"And you have many dark circular scars . . . more cigarette burns I guess . . . on the inner part of your thighs."
Dasha was embarrassed and upset by his statements. She stood up quickly and looked harshly at Dana. "How dare you share such intimate details! " She headed towards the door.
Dana ran after her. "Dasha! Wait." She caught up with her and said, "You know I love you. I didn't tell him anything about you."
Drew said, "I'm sorry for scaring you. Let me try to convince you another way."
He grabbed a note pad and said, "Here take this. Go into another room alone and write something on three pages. Give one to Dana, one to Grandma and put the other face up in the canary's cage in the kitchen. Then come join me outside on the patio and I'll tell you what you've written."
Dasha was astonished by his request. "You're going to tell me what I write?"
"Yes."
"No way."
Drew went outside and with Dana's encouragement Dasha sat by herself and did as Drew had requested. She then went outside and sat at a table with Drew. He said, "Okay, I'll prove it to you now."
He closed his eyes and appeared to become extremely relaxed. He entered a trance and searched out her messages. A minute later, he said, "2 + 2 = 5. Don't go chasing waterfalls and you drew a lovely picture of a rose."
"Oh my God!" Dasha exclaimed.
^^^
Dasha allowed Dana to escort her to the guest bedroom. She now accepted the claim that Drew had a special gift. His stunt had been compelling. Dana said, "To gain a place here we each will have to have sex with my brother in front of Felicity and my grandmother."
Dasha said, "I don't see another option. We have no money and no way to defend ourselves from my crazy, violent uncles.
Dana cried and said, "I can't think of another way either."
Dasha said with conviction, "I'll do it."
Dana hugged her and said, "I was willing to do it, to pay the price to bring us under my family's protection, but I never imagined you would have to do it too. Knowing you were raped at 13, I would never ask you to . . . "
Her lover stroked Dana's long black hair and interrupted her saying, "You were willing to fuck your 70 year old grandfather in public for me? You? Who have never even had sex with any guy?"
Dasha shook her head in amazement before adding, "Your brother isn't going to rape or torture me. This is a small sacrifice to pay if it means I can spend the rest of my life with you."
Dasha looked Dana in the eye greatly concerned and said, "But how about you? Can you do it with your brother?"
Dana held Dasha's face and kissed her passionately and said, "I believe I'll be okay. It's only one time. One moment. I can do it for us."
As an afterthought Dasha asked, "Do we need to worry about getting pregnant?"
"We can stop by the drug store tomorrow and pick up some Plan B."
The lesbian couple walked out hand-in- hand. They found everyone in the family room. Dana announced, "We'll do it."
Adrianna clapped her hands and said, "I'll prepare for the ceremony. Felicity, take our candidates back to their room and bathe them. Drew, go to your bedroom. I'll bring everyone their outfits. We'll meet in the master bedroom in an hour.
Felicity ran a bath and help Dasha and then Dana to bathe. Felicity shuddered when she saw the knife scar and the cigarette burns.
Drew sat alone in his room wondering what was happening. Could he screw his sister?
Adrianna interrupted his thoughts by dropping off a robe made of fox. It had no buttons or belt. "Put this on. Wear nothing under it," Adrianna instructed him.
"Wait, Grandmother. I'm not sure I can do this."
"If you don't, they will have to leave in the morning."
He didn't like that option. Frustrated, he mouthed off, "I'm tired of all these special ceremonies. Are the laws written down somewhere? I liked to see them!"
"Yes dear. Go to the library. You'll find an old leather bound book written in Romanian spelling out all the laws. Or you can check out the English translation that your grandfather recently finished. See you at 3 o'clock."
Adrianna changed into her gold ceremonial chemise and took the girls their full length white gowns. The young women silently dressed. Felicity and Dana put up their hair. Per Adrianna's instruction, no one wore undergarments.
The group gathered in the master bedroom. The ladies looked beautiful. Their unsupported breasts bounced in a sexy manner under their sheer gowns. Drew felt ridiculous standing there in his open-front fox coat. His flaccid penis was on full display to all of the women.
Adrianna had Drew sit in an upholstered chair. She had Felicity sit off to the side and she directed Dana and Dasha to stand in front of Alex. Adrianna stood and spoke,
"We gather to hear the pleadings of these two outsiders. Is it true that you want to join our clan? You seek our company and protection?"
"Yes," They responded.
"We are willing to invite you into the bosom of our family. Show us you are humble, blameless and pure in heart. Remove you gowns. Bare your bodies to us as a symbol that you will likewise bare your souls."
Dasha and Dana didn't hesitate. They stripped. Their nipples puckered into hard peaks. The slim, fit women were of equal height both being 5' 5". They were each attractive in their own unique way.
Drew's eyes widen as the women got naked. A month ago he had not ever seen a woman naked and now he was blessed to see two more. His eyes gave Dasha more than the once over, he devoured her. She was the first black girl he'd seen nude. He enjoyed her body's interpretation of womanhood. She was exotic. Her scars couldn't diminish her beauty. His dick twitched.
Dasha's body was light brown, the color of milk chocolate. Her nipples and sex were a darker brown, like dark chocolate. Her face had a broad nose and thick lips. She had wide shoulders and a narrow waist leading to womanly hips. Her legs were slender and her butt was big, round and high. Dasha was shaved clean around her vaginal lips. The hair on her head and above her sex was closely cropped to about an 1/8" long. It was tightly curled and black in color.
As beautiful as Dasha was, Drew couldn't stop his eyes from sneaking over to glance at his sister's nakedness. The last time he had seen her without clothing was a shared bath when he was 6 and she was 8. They had splash about playfully. Seeing her naked now fully matured, made him feel uneasy, but also excited. He felt butterflies flitting about in his stomach. There was something inside him that told him it was improper to look, that it was wrong for him to enjoy her physicality. His penis shrank in response to his qualms.
Dana's body was like a two-toned corvette. She had pronounced suntan lines so the private parts of her body were alabaster white and the rest had a golden hue. Her body was sleek and sexy like the sports car.
He studied her in greater detail. She had pleasing mid-size breasts that were pale white. They were topped off by small hard pink nipples. She had a trim waist and toned abdomen. She sported a thick black bush, narrow hips and a flat white butt. Dana had a pretty face with large brown eyes, a long elegant nose and plump made for kissing lips. Her hair was long, thick and jet black.
Adrianna motioned for Felicity to stand and said, "We are likewise pure in spirit. We bare our bodies and souls to you."
Felicity and Adrianna dropped their gowns on the floor. Felicity's flawless body drew stares from everyone. From her pretty petite feet, to her shaved cleft sex, to her full round orbs, her body was beauty incarnate. Adrianna was attractive too for an older woman. Sure she had sagging breasts, a general lack of muscle tone and gray hair above and below, but she had maintained a slim, hour glass figure. Both women also had an undeniable regal bearing.
