Let Me Call You Kate

"Let me call you Kate."

Strange Love, Part One: After a beloved woman's funeral, grief leads to an incestuous role-playing game between father and daughter. This introduces a keeping-it-in-the-family saga.

Everyone at Kate Glass' funeral told Raine that she was a miniature replica of her mother. She couldn't envision herself- ill-tempered and full of shadows- being anything like her mother. Kate had been an angel in life and was most certainly a guardian angel in death: a gregarious and selfless mother, wife, daughter, sister and friend. But people seemed to have reached a consensus contrary to Raine's opinion of herself. Even Gabriel clung to his youngest daughter as though she was his wife reincarnate.

William and Patrick, Kate's eldest sons, stuck together as though conjoined by grief. They gave Raine only the slimmest benefit of their empathy. Deirdre and Cole, Gabriel's twins from his first marriage, attended only as observers, mediators and kerchief distributors. They gave Raine only their tolerant pity. Levi, closest to her in age though a decade her senior, stayed aloof for fear of betraying their taboo history.

Raine's siblings had come in pairs, in respect to coloring and temperament as well as age. Deirdre and Cole, eldest of all, were both dark of hair and skin, with strong Celtic features and sharp attitudes. They looked so alike, that Deirdre felt it was God's cruelty that made her a girl instead of Cole's identical twin. She didn't envy his anatomy so much as she did the freedom it ensured him.

Liam and Patrick, the middle sons, had red hair and bronzed skin, hazel and blue eyes respectively, and a patient nature. As children and adults, they were happiest when around one another. But they weren't opposed to solitude, rivalry even. When playing with neighborhood boys, they often split apart into warring factions- sabotaging one another's forts and breaking into fist fights.

While Cole and Deirdre were observant and cold creatures of logic, Liam and Patrick were naïve, charismatic children of faith. Leaving Raine and Levi to be the brilliant storms of the family; blunt and elusive at once, dedicated to the freedom of mutability. Part of this was because they were indulged as the youngest child, in their separate times, and encouraged to be free spirits instead of obedient souls. But part of it was, they were convinced, the result of a gene that bonded them body, mind and destiny.

No one had ever made the other feel so exquisitely worshipped, completed, mirrored. Yes, each a mirror, reflecting the golden locks, cobalt eyes, long limbs, light skin and discerning half-smiles they'd inherited from their mother. Yet each was an enigma at the same time. Levi was darkly preoccupied, as was his father, with the music of silence, the chaos of stillness and the creativity of death. Raine was thoughtful and intelligent, much like her father, but was rebellious and adventurous; preferring a double life when one would have sufficed.

During the service, Raine sat between her grief-wracked father and abjectly stoical sister. Holding their hands at the same time was like being tempered by a pot of boiling water and a chest of ice. Unable to look forward, where her maternal half-brothers stood around the lowering casket like forlorn models, Raine examined the six limbs in her field of vision. Gabriel's long, athletic legs were clothed in black and navy pinstripe pants. Deirdre's shapely, tan legs were covered to the calf with a charcoal plaid skirt and were punctuated by pointy dark kid-leather brogues.

Raine's own knees were practically bare but for a spattering of provocative lace. Her glossy black skirt revealed the whole lower half of her fit, stockinged legs and her black lace blouse was unbuttoned enough to frame her creamy décolletage. Looking down, she noticed it also gave a peak at her cleavage and the push-up bra that held up her pert breasts.

The wake had been full of suggestive comments – "You look as beautiful as your mother did at your age. And Kate was always being chased by the gents," – and felt trapped by awkwardly long hugs – "If there's anything you need, lass, anything at all…" Kate's first husband, Rafe, looked at Raine for such a long time that Liam and Patrick shoved him elsewhere in the crowd of mourners. Raine didn't particularly mind the sexual attention- she enjoyed the benefits of youth as any other attractive nineteen year old might. But so close to the untimely death of her mother, the tension around horny mates was a little too much.

As everyone bowed their heads for a final prayer, all Raine could think about was getting pissed, lamped, snoggered, officially ossified. Not at a bar either, where anyone would see her drunk and lonely and try to pick her up. Looking down the aisle as casually as possible, Raine saw the prime candidate for a drinking partner- Levi. Raine fondly remembered the many times, before she'd turned eighteen, when he would sneak her glasses of undiluted wine and mugs of poitin (this bootleg Irish whiskey was his drink of choice). Besides which, the two had always been closer to one another than they'd care for others to know.

It wasn't just that Levi'd given Raine her first kiss; he'd also brought Raine to her first non-manual orgasm and (most happily) instructed her on how to tailler une pipe (translation: give a killer-wicked blowjob). Their trysts had never gone beyond oral sex, but as the limos began to refill with ebon-clad people, Raine speculated on how good it would be to have him screw her brains out with his sizable cock.

"Are you coming back to the house, Levi?" she asked. They were standing next to one of the family cars, surrounded by the rest of the Glasses, preventing them from saying what was on their minds. "Pat and Liam asked me to hit Shaunessey's with them," he said, carefully touching her face to remove a tear. Raine was about to ask if he'd like her company when she felt two strong hands clasp her slim shoulders.

"You lads drink a round for your mum," Gabriel told his step-sons. "What about you, Cole? Deirdre? Are you joining them?" he asked his children. "I have to get back home with the babies," Deirdre said, her youngest set of identical twins asleep in her arms.

"Do you want me to bring Maddy and the kids over, Da?" Cole asked dutifully, though reticently. Gabriel squeezed Raine's shoulders before shaking his head no. "It's been a long day for you. But you'll have to help get rid of the food the neighbors have brought sometime this week. It's just me and Little Lorraine now," he reminded everyone.

Wilting under the pressure of her father's palms and her siblings' concerned eyes, Raine felt palpably uncomfortable. "Don't worry, souer," Levi whispered in his native tongue, lips tickling her earlobe, "I'll be with you soon."

Raine replayed this promise in her head on the way home and again in her room. In front of her full-length mirror, she stripped her funereal garb. She imagined Levi's hands greedily removing her blouse, pulling her skirt down over her curvy hips and ass, rolling her stockings down her thighs, unclasping her bra, drawing her satin thong away from her hot sex. When her long hair fell over her shoulders and chest, she could almost feel his fingers moving the locks encircling her left breast before they pinched her rosy nipple.

The fantasy was so visceral that the little nubs of flesh grew stiff on their own, and the delicate island of shell-pink around them puckered. Raine closed her eyes, delightfully nude now, and lowered her hands from her swan-neck, down her fully aroused C cup breasts and toned abs to the groomed triangle of pubic hair crowning her cunt. Stroking the muff as Levi had so long ago, Raine realized that her gasps of pleasure had a delayed echo.

Holding her breath tentatively, she let her phalanges dance further down, to the part of her bare nether lips. An audible sigh emerged from behind her, as if voicing her pussy's desire. Raine's eyes opened to see her father's face in the mirror. Gabriel was standing in the doorway, jacket and tie off, dress shirt partially open, pants drawn tight over his hardness.

"Christ, Raine, you really do look like your mother. Kate was your age when I met her. Seeing you now is like looking into the past." There was nothing flustered or ashamed about his tone. It was more dreamy than lusty, but there was a throaty catch behind his words; an undeniable urgency.

"Could you make us some drinks, Da? I'll be down when I'm dressed," she said, pretending like he wasn't alternating between ogling her front's image and her back's flesh. "Oh, of course angel," Gabriel agreed, looking down at his loafers. "I'd better change meself." She headed to her dresser before her father turned away. Knowing that this was somehow a performance, Raine bent over from her waist and searched through her drawers. Her breasts swung hypnotically with every calculated motion.

"Ah, what's your pleasure, my dear?" he asked, eyes following her body's pendulous dance. "The hard stuff," Raine said, then hastily added, "You know, the whiskey that's been distilled in some sheep farmer's shed. Good for naught but cleaning wounds and getting shit-faced." Gabriel laughed and said "aye" before sauntering off, images of his gorgeous daughter pumping blood straight to his penis.

While selecting her clothes, Raine toyed with the idea of wearing something seductive. But she knew that flirting with her Da would be engaging an unwinnable (but not entirely unsatisfactory) game. So she powdered her aired-out body and then dressed in a blouse and loose linen trousers over her thin cotton panties and lycra bra. After brushing out her tangled mane, Raine confined it with a silver barrette, accentuating her high cheekbones and sleek jaw line. Attentive not to look too made-up, she also applied face powder and lip-rouge with her mother's old vanity set.

Then she sought out her father, who was drinking Scotch and soda in the downstairs den. His eyes were affixed to the telly, but Gabriel only vaguely noticed the Rugby Union match. "Thanks, Da." His daughter's words broke his daze and he watched her down the shot of spirits he'd left out. "Another?" he offered the thick, ceramic decanter to his daughter. Without a word, Raine sat on the leather Chesterfield with an expectant mug.

Gabriel was in raw-silk polo and dark cotton trousers, his shaggy black hair damp and tousled. Mum would have brushed it for him, Raine thought, but refrained from touching him as the pleasant warmth of alcohol enveloped her. "You hold your liquor well for such a small lass," her da remarked after her third shot. Mindful not to slur and betray her low threshold, Raine confirmed with "genetics I suppose."

"Kate was the same."

"Actually, I was thinking about your side of the family."

"Oh, I get all bluesy and emotional, like some Frenchman," he said to slight Kate's first husband. Gabriel grazed his late afternoon stubble with his rustic hand, wedding band glinting in the light. "So do I, Da. Though I wouldn't compare meself to the froggies." Probably because she was half-French herself. "We can both keep the demons on our doorsteps at bay, though, right?"

Looking at her with glassy but tearless eyes, Gabriel beheld his angelic daughter as though she'd materialized. "Let me call you Kate. Just for tonight." It was more of a plea than a request, more pitiful than a beggar, more sincere than a priest. Raine wondered what her nod obligated her to only briefly. Her father freed his hands of the crystal tumbler and began to stroke her left knee while firmly holding the small of her back.

"Kate. My sweet Kate," he mused, inhaling the contradictory mixture of her baby-girl sweetness and womanly pheromones. Raine, stupefied by his sudden closeness felt herself detach and drift half-way between their bodies and the Munster-Ulster match. While half of Gabriel's fingers played with the exposed skin between his daughter-wife's waist band and shirt hem, the other explored the terrain of Raine's clothed thighs.

"Were you thinking about me while you undressed yourself? Hoping that I would do what I'm about to now?" his gruff voice teased.

"I wasn't thinking about anyone," her innocent voice lied.

"You had to have been, because when you touched your wee cunt, my very own hand felt wet."

Internally, Raine acknowledged that he was feeling beneath her top, tugging at the back clasp of her bra and caressing what puffed out of its demi-cups. But she couldn't allow her mind to project what was about to happen. Even as her breasts bounced free of their fabric prisons only to be recaptured by her father-husband's hands, she didn't consider that they were about to fuck.

First his hands, then his mouth explored her nakedness as Raine's back sank into the pillows. The motion of acquiescing to his physical needs was like watching the world tilt through a camera. She observed hands in Gabriel's hair and recognized them as her own without feeling the strands they disturbed. What shocked his daughter back into her body was the sensation of rough digits discovering her clitoris.

"Jesus Fucking Mary and the Bleeding Saints," she called out, unusually blasphemous. But nothing could communicate her surprise, especially since she also felt dear Da's 22cms-and-counting thumping excitedly nearby. "What's happening?" Raine asked, bewildered as a movie-goer who's stepped out of a kid's film only to walk back into a porno.

"Relax, Kate. Do you want more to drink? We can go up to our bedroom." And then, while an subconscious voice yelled "no", like an audience member warning a clueless actress by yelling "the killer's behind you!", Raine shook her head "yes".

"Yes, let's go upstairs," Gabriel intoned softly, releasing his daughter. He poured them drinks while Raine tried to collect herself. Her barrette had been discarded, her bra was dangling uselessly from her shoulders, and a definite fire was being stoked between her legs. Taking her fourth drink, Raine followed her father obediently up the two flights of stairs that led to the master suite.

Seeing her parents' former marriage bed, Raine became aware of her new vantage point. Before Kate's death, her daughter felt dwarfed by the colossal mattress, and diminished more so by Gabriel's commanding presence. In the dim light of dusk, entre chein et loup as Levi sentimentally said, Raine couldn't tell her father from a wolf. With objective eyes, she could see that he was ruggedly handsome, frame broader and muscles stockier than the Champel side of her own family. Clear blue eyes and a radiant smile flashed on his hungry face.

Age had dusted his raven-feather hair, faintly wrinkled his dusky complexion and calloused his oft-used body; but on this twilight, it did nothing to obscure his carnal impulse. Prepared by a final gulp of liquor, the loyal girl reciprocated her father's kisses with her own, albeit shakily. "Do you want me to undress you, da?" she squeaked despite all attempts of composure.

"Don't call me that," he hissed forcefully and then, kindly, he crooned "I'm your husband."

As if Kate was taking over, the blonde doll spoke with longing. "Let me hold you, Gabriel; flesh to flesh, heart to heart." The spell had fallen, deepened its grips as the renewed Kate touched her husband's erection. Together, their hands working as though controlled by one nervous system, the lovers undressed each other, themselves; unwrapping their gifts and their flaws. Kate's nails scraped Gabriel's iron-haired chest and strong back as he traced her fragile spine and collarbone.

When his fingers stroked her slick, resilient clitoris the second time, his paramour leaned in instead of retracting. Urged on by the press of her full, attentive breasts to his solid chest, Gabriel impaled his sex-mistress with two fingers. They experienced mutual joy in the filling of her tight vagina. He continued to stroke his wife's pleasure button while Kate rode his hand, holding onto his right shoulder for support. Without even considering her weight, Gabriel lifted his woman with one arm and tossed her onto the bed.

"On your knees, Kate," he commanded, specifying with "your head to his" while tilted his pelvis towards her luscious mouth. Kate clamored to get into position, groveling parallel to the side of the bed to give him full access to her raised honey pot and hanging rack. "Here, take it in your mouth, love." The velvet-soft skin of his engorged member touched her lips, and she in turn met it with equal passion.

Softly as a doe, she lapped him tip to root, tasting every bump and vein. Gently, she massaged his delicate sacks of semen while stroking his cock with her breasts. Kate gradually took his entire length into her mouth, eliciting the loudest moans of all from her tortured partner. With every patient push of her head and his hand, with every expert twirl of her tongue, every effort to relax her face and throat, his pipe slid further in.

Gabriel guided her into a pleasurable rhythm of taking and licking, pulling and sucking. The suctioning power of her cheeks accompanied by the unflinching openness of her throat invited him onto an ecstatic roller coaster, paced perfectly by Kate's generous mouth. He felt himself almost ejaculate twice, but she relented just in time and tsked him playfully.

As she serviced Gabriel, he enjoyed himself by dipping his fingers into her tiny cunt and rubbing her sex juices all over her clit, then her ass, her belly, his nose, her breasts, his mouth, his pubis. With every entry, Kate would shift her weight to further and prolong the intrusion. Blowing his impressive cock made her want to ride on it, fill herself up with it and cream all over it. The teasing nature of her pipe made Gabriel want to screw her with animalistic speed until he spent his load.

"Goddamnit, K, I want to feel you shudder and moan all over me," he nearly withdrew his entire fuckrod from her beloved mouth. Their nearly identical eyes locked onto each other while she tenderly cleaned off the mixture of saliva and liquid diamonds from the head of his penis. Once done, Gabriel pulled her up off her hands and raised her adoring visage to his lust-glazed face. For a moment, Raine popped in to feel herself be pushed backwards onto the feather-topped bed.

Initially, she thought that he was simply going to take her. And, as Gabriel climbed authoritatively onto the bed, lifting his daughter-wife's legs by the ankles, he almost did. But then curiosity inflamed him. He had to taste the source of her intoxicating honey. It's glistening pink folds looked delicious as Kate opened it up to him, spreading her legs and lips for his inspection.

"Do you want me to taste you, dearest? I want to taste you," with ease Kate's knees came down onto her chest, completely exposing her perfume box. Gabriel helped his petite sexpot slide to the corner of the bed to make room for his 191 cm., 86 kg. form. Arranging his geometry to accommodate his erection, he dived nose first into her silken cunt.

Its flavor was at once sweet and acrid, like the base of some fertile essence, potently encouraging his slippery taste buds to devour it. Kate squirmed eagerly to fuck his face with her liquefied sex. Streams of vulgarities in at least four languages thanked every known god for her husband's abandoned eating.
