Family Dreams
by Faye Jackson
(LLP-461)


FOREWORD 

The American woman - her problems, her ways of handling them - has been a 
vital subject of the best of American literature for many years. The subject 
has been tackled from many points of view - and by many writers. Is there 
anyone who can forget the poignancy of Dreiser's Sister Carrie, the pathos 
of Henry James' Isabel Archer? But it has only been in recent years, and 
since the universal acceptance of the controversial theories of the great 
pioneer of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud, who traced such problems to the 
child's first sexual experiences - either real or fantasized - that the 
deep, tangled roots of those problems have been explored. It is in these 
tangled roots that Faye Jackson has found the motivations of her characters, 
so true to life, in the distinguished novel Family Dreams. 

Yet Ms. Jackson has not written a mere treatise, however profound her 
understanding of the psychological background of her characters - Will Tracy 
and his wife, Nora; Gerta, the young Danish au pair, so innocent-seeming, 
yet so worldly; Jake Eggar, the trusted family friend, who betrays the 
Tracys - but an engrossing and deeply moving story of an average, apparently 
normal American couple, their trials and tribulations and their ultimate 
triumph. Will and Nora Tracy could be the people next door; they could be 
you. And they are caught up in the swiftly shifting pattern of social 
change, and specifically, the breakdown of the modern marriage, which has 
become the hallmark of modern American society. 

The author has grasped, with penetrating clarity, the confusion this 
breakdown brings to those who must adjust to it, and has sketched a 
fascinating picture of a family at the vortex of that whirlpool. Like most 
of us, they are chained by the taboos of the past, the social customs and 
mores inherited from an earlier, simpler time. Those chains must be broken 
if the Tracys are to survive in this new, and freer world. And broken they 
are, but at an enormous cost in the human suffering inflicted by the 
overwhelming remorse and guilt of the characters involved. 

Once broken, those chains must be supplanted by a new norm, a new structure, 
if the Tracys are to function in the world as it now exists, if they are not 
to become completely alienated from reality, as so many have become in 
recent times. No one can exist in a vacuum; man, as the greatest modern 
philosophers from Jean-Paul Sartre to Paul Tillich have pointed out, must 
relate to some one, to some thing. He must, in other words, have some sort 
of absolute. In earlier eras, that absolute was faith. Later, as science 
dispelled witchcraft and superstition, faith was replaced by the social 
systems of a structured society. It is that which is now breaking up, and 
which has led modern man to the dilemma in which he finds himself. He is 
lost, and he is forever searching. 

It is the lot of very few individuals in our day to find themselves; it is 
the great good fortune of Will and Nora Tracy that they do. They emerge from 
their scathing ordeal no longer clinging to the crumbling ramparts of a 
disintegrating social system, but saved by a knowledge, a belief, an 
acceptance of themselves. "This above all, to thine own self be true," 
Shakespeare wrote, hundreds of years ago. The words might well be graven on 
the hearts of the protagonists of this profound, yet ever-exciting novel. 

Family Dreams is a book which only a writer with a deep understanding of 
women and which only a bold and courageous publisher could offer to the 
public. Tiburon House takes great pride in being that publisher.

 CHAPTER ONE 

Nora Tracy sighed as she passed the feather duster across the gilt frame of 
the lithograph hanging above the mantle in the living room. A real Picasso, 
she told herself, and a marvelous work of art. She still remembered how 
thrilled she'd been when Will presented it to her on their Fourteenth 
wedding anniversary. Even now, the mere fact of owning a signed work of art, 
and a masterpiece at that, thrilled her again. 

Still, she sighed. There was so much work involved in keeping up a house 
like this, filled as it was with the luxuries which were almost necessities 
to Nora and her friends in Piedmont Hills. White wall-to-wall carpeting was 
wonderful, but it had to be vacuumed every day. Prints and paintings had to 
be dusted, furniture polished. And someone had to cook dinner, and wash the 
dishes later - or at least stack them in the dishwasher - and then put them 
away. And that someone was herself. 

Not that she resented doing that, or anything else she did for Will. Who 
else, she asked herself, had such a wonderful husband, one who'd given his 
wife so much? 

She put down the duster and curled up on one of the twin modern sofas 
flanking the fireplace. Leaning back, she stared out the window at the blue 
water sparkling in the white-tiled swimming pool, at the sun-bathed patio 
alongside it, sheltered by broad-leafed trees. She had a wonderful husband, 
she thought, and a wonderful home, too. 

And two wonderful children. They were grown, now, with Todd off at college, 
writing home, at least to ask for money, regularly. But neither she nor Will 
begrudged him that. Will, Nora thought, indulged the children almost as much 
as he indulged her. 

Her mind wandered to Ellen, married now, and with a home of her own out in 
Ohio. It was Ellen, not Todd, who was the apple of her father's eye. Nora 
remembered the little tot trailing along behind Will, teddy bear clutched in 
her arms, remembered the way Will swooped her up, perched her on his 
shoulders, trotted around the yard while Ellen squealed "Play horsie! Play 
horsie!" She remembered a few less pleasant moments, too, like the time the 
three had been having dinner in a posh restaurant. Suddenly Ellen stood up 
on her chair, pointing at Will's plate, screaming, stamping her foot, 
demanding something. But what? No one could make out what the child was 
saying, and Nora had turned the color of the boiled lobster on her plate, as 
she ordered Ellen to be quiet. She'd had an almost uncontrollable urge to 
smack the child - and to hell with Dr. Spock, she had thought - but Will had 
kept his cool, had calmed the infant and cajoled her into a semblance of 
coherence. "What is it you want, darling?" he asked. 

And Ellen, with a tiny smile of triumph, pointed at the parsley garnishing 
his thick, juicy steak to squeak, "Fwowers!" Nora was mortified, but Will 
roared with laughter, as he always did at Ellen's lisped words, and had 
picked her up and dangled her on his knee, giving her the "fwowers" she 
asked for. 

He always gave her what she asked for, Nora thought, pushing aside her 
cleaning tools and going into the kitchen for a cooling gin and tonic. She 
brought the frosty glass back to the living room and curled up on the coral 
colored couch to drink it, while her thoughts wandered to their daughter 
Ellen, once more. Not the spoiled child, this time, but the grown woman, the 
wife, the mother-to-be. She thought of Martin, Ellen's husband, too. What 
was he like? 

Oh, he was a wonderful boy, that was certain. Bright and industrious and 
filled with ambition. He'd won top honors at school, found himself the kind 
of job most men dream of as soon as he'd graduated. But was he, Nora 
wondered, well... considerate? 

Some men weren't, Nora knew. Not Will, of course. Will was the most 
considerate of men. But some men weren't and Nora thought of her mother, so 
many years earlier, talking to her about marriage. "Some men are 
considerate," she had explained. "But other men... other men are just... " 
her voice trailed off, as she searched for the word she wanted. She never 
found it, but then, she didn't need to. Nora knew exactly what she meant, 
from all she'd heard through the thin walls that separated her room from 
that of her parents. 

Even now, Nora remembered her father coming home, half-drunk at best, more 
often blindly staggering, to burst into the bedroom where her mother lay in 
their huge double bed, always going through the same routine. She could 
almost hear her mother's imploring whimpers. "Oh, no, Sal. Not tonight. 
Please no! Not tonight!" 

"What the hell you being so high and mighty about?" her father had always 
sneered, his voice cold and harsh. "Been giving out my pussy to everyone 
else, huh? And now you're plumb tuckered out!" There was a moment's silence, 
then her father's lewd, wheezing laugh. "Flickered out! That's more like it. 
Plumb fuckered out!" The silence following seemed to have been filled with 
both Nora's terror and that of her mother, and then the quaking child had 
heard the sound of tearing cloth as her father would rip her mother's 
nightgown from her fear-stricken body, heard her muffled groan of shock and 
horror, then the heavy breathing of the man as he threw himself upon the 
woman. In her mind's eye she could picture him grasping the snowy mound of 
her breasts in his rough, calloused hands, twisting and squeezing them, 
pinching the sensitive bud of her nipple until Martha, Nora's mother, would 
scream out loud in pain. 

"Please, Sal. Please!" But her father, always dismissing her pleas with a 
harsh, obscene laugh, would cruelly spread her thighs, forcing his huge, 
blood-filled penis between them, and then finding the fleshy, tender lips of 
her opening vagina, drub into her like a well-oiled piston thrusting back 
and forth into a bit of mute machinery. 

Her mother had not been mute, though - not completely - and as her father 
would continue his vile debasement of her, his cock ramming deep into her 
quivering cuntal flesh, tearing at the soft, moist walls of her private 
passage, plundering them beyond endurance, she would pull the covers over 
her head with trembling hands, and finally giving in to the scalding tears 
that welled in her eyes, would sob herself to sleep in utter despair. 

Now, sitting in her luxurious living room, the memory of those times sent a 
cold shudder crawling up Nora's spine. She shook her head, thanking God that 
Ellen had been spared such abject humiliation, just as she had been. She 
felt an overwhelming rush of tenderness for Will, and then it dawned on her 
that the hour was late, and that Will would be home any minute. With a sigh, 
Nora roused herself to finish her dusting, to swoop across the room with her 
vacuum cleaner. Then she went into the kitchen and got things out for 
dinner: the steak and asparagus from the freezer, the potatoes from the bin, 
the salad greens from the crisper in the refrigerator. She hurriedly made a 
dressing - "a miser with the vinegar," she reminded herself, "a spendthrift 
with the oil" - before she set the table on the patio. Then she hurried 
inside to mix Martinis; she was just stirring them when the door opened and 
Will came in. 

He kissed Nora gently on the forehead, cupping her chin in his hand, tilting 
her face up to him. "Had a good day?" he asked. 

She wrinkled her pert, perfect little nose. "Busy," she said. 

Will gave her a worried look. "I know. Nora,", he said, "And I don't like 
it." . 

Nora let out a lilting, musical laugh. "Darling," she said. "It will only be 
for another day or so. Gerta's coming on Thursday." She shook her finger at 
him, playfully. "Remember?" 

"Sure do." Will said. "And I'm damned glad of it. You know, honey, I hate to 
see you working like this." 

"It's nothing. Will. Really. Nothing!" Nora said. 

Will began to peel off his jacket, wiping his face as he did so. "Sure was 
hot in town," he said. 

"Hot here, too," Nora told him. "That's why I thought we'd eat outside." 

"Great, Nora. Anything I can do to help?" Will offered. 

"You could take the drinks out," Nora suggested. 

"Sure!" Will took the tray and carried it to the terrace, while Nora 
followed with the plate of hor d'oevres she had prepared earlier. "Certainly 
hope this au pair thing works out, Nora," he said, pouring the drinks into 
the chilled glasses. 

Nora laughed again. "Why shouldn't it, Will?" she asked, settling herself on 
a chaise lounge. 

Will shrugged. "I don't know. I just heard that a lot of people had trouble, 
getting girls to come and work for them the way we did. Answering an ad in 
the paper and that sort of thing." 

"But Gerta had marvelous references," Nora pointed out. 

"Well... " 

"And we checked them all," Nora added. 

"I know, I know," Will said. "But Gary Thaxton - you know Gary, Nora, he's 
the one I've told you is always asking about you - he told me about a friend 
of his who brought one of these au pair girls over and before you knew it, 
she was stealing everything in sight." 

"Oh, Will!" Nora exclaimed. "No!" 

"Yes! And she was dirty, too." 

"But I'm sure Gerta's not like that," Nora protested. "Her letters to us 
seemed so intelligent. And she seemed so charming, too." 

Will nodded in agreement. "That's true," he said, lighting a cigarette. 
"Still, you never know." 

Nora sighed. Of course Gerta would be all right. She was a bright, well 
brought-up young woman who was moving into the Tracy home to help out. Not a 
cleaning woman, the kind who was strong as an ox, and almost as stupid, who 
had crossed Nora's path occasionally, and whom Nora now avoided like the 
plague. Not at all. 

And Gerta wasn't to be a maid, either, running and fetching and waiting on 
Nora, and doing the household chores, too. No! Gerta was an au pair who 
would be treated like one of the family and who, in turn, would help Nora 
with light housework, just as Ellen had done when she lived at home. And, of 
course, she would provide companionship for the Tracys too, although she 
would certainly be encouraged to mingle with people her own age. But Nora 
could be a friend to Gerta, just as she'd been to her own daughter, shopping 
with her occasionally, taking in a matinee from time to time, lolling beside 
the pool with her on a hot afternoon. She took a deep breath, suddenly 
realizing how much - how very much - she missed her own children. She was 
glad that Will had insisted on asking Gerta to come to California to live 
with them. 

It was he who came across the ad in the classified columns of The Standard 
Post one evening and called out, "Hey, Nora, see this? It says 'Young Danish 
girl seeks position as aupair in pleasant atmosphere. Willing and capable. 
Prefers California.' Think we should give it a try?" 

"Why not?" Nora answered. But later, after Will sent the letter off to 
Denmark, Nora had been dubious about the matter. "If it doesn't work out," 
she said, "There's nothing we can do. The girl is coming for a year, and 
we've got to keep her for the full time. It's a contract, after all." 

Will had stroked his chin thoughtfully. "It's going to be all right, Nora," 
he assured her. He gave her the same broad, disarming smile he gave to 
clients who hesitated, pens poised above the dotted line of an insurance 
policy which would guarantee them that "$400 a month - every month - for 
life" or would "provide your children with an education, no matter what 
happens to you." It was that smile, along with his spirit of camaraderie, 
which had made Will Tracy's insurance business such a success, had brought 
him a small fortune, and provided the luxuries which Nora so enjoyed. 

Then, just like the hundreds of clients who cheerfully signed the insurance 
policies in front of them and handed over their hard-earned cash for the 
privilege, Nora was convinced by Will's words. "You're right," she said, 
flashing him a radiant smile, adding "as usual." She squeezed his arm. "It 
will be okay." 

Now, though, sitting beside the cool, inviting pool, she knew that Will was 
worried; wasn't the responsibility for bringing Gerta to their home really 
his? "Come on," she said cheerfully. "How about another drink?" 

"Sure!" Will said. He carefully filled Nora's glass, and then his own. "You 
know, honey," he said gallantly, "you mix the meanest martini in this whole 
valley!" 

"Thank you, sir!" Nora answered, with a coquettish curtsey. She lifted her 
glass to Will's. "To Gerta!" she toasted. 

"To Gerta!" 

They finished their drinks in silence, and sat for a moment staring into the 
pool, watching the miniature waves lazily lapping against the tiled sides. 
Then Nora stretched and pulled herself to her feet. "How about dinner?" 

"Great. I'm starved." 

"Shall we broil the steaks out here on the patio?" 

"Sure." 

"Okay. You stoke the charcoal, will you, Will?" Nora asked. She went into 
the kitchen and loaded a large tray with the steaks, the salad, a bowl of 
fruit she'd filled for dessert. She set it down on the table near the grill, 
waiting for the fire to burn down to red hot embers, for Will to toss the 
meat on the sizzling rack. She lit a cigarette, and as she turned to flick 
away an ash, she caught sight of herself, reflected in the pool. 

She was as lovely now, she saw, as she'd been when she was married, nearly 
twenty years earlier. She still had the figure that made men turn and stare 
- and often whistle - then, with the tiny waist that Will could span with 
his two hands, the long, slim legs, the full, rounded breasts, the 
marvelously curved buttocks that swayed enchantingly as she walked. Her hair 
was as gold and glistening as it had been then, her eyes as blue. And her 
skin had kept its youthful bloom, glowing like the proverbial peaches and 
cream. There was no doubt about it; Nora was a strikingly beautiful woman. 

And Will, she thought, casting a sidewise glance at him, Will was certainly 
a handsome man. He was tall and well-built, and thank heavens, Nora thought, 
he'd kept his hair. It was beginning to turn gray, but that only made him 
more distinguished looking, and in Nora's eyes, more attractive. His head 
was fine, even noble, .and Nora found herself admiring, for perhaps the 
thousandth time, the strong, firm line of his chin, which was softened by 
the twinkle in his dark eyes. Yes, Will was a handsome man. 

And yet, as so often happened, Nora felt she had nothing to say to him. 
Tonight, again, the two finished their meal in silence. And when it grew 
dark around the pool, they went inside and her husband switched on the 
television set. 

Without a word, they watched the mindless exploits of a couple of clowns, 
prancing about the small screen, hitting one another with rubber bladders 
that sent showers of water streaming into one another's faces. Will laughed, 
along with the studio audience, but Nora's mind was miles away. There was 
something wrong with her life, she thought, but she couldn't put her finger 
on what it was. She had a beautiful home, wonderful children, a kind and 
loving husband - everything a woman could ask for. But there was something 
missing, and she didn't know what it was. 

Still pondering the matter, she stifled a yawn and stood up. "I think I'll 
go to bed, darling," she said. She bent down to kiss his forehead. "Coming 
along?" 

"I think I'll wait till the program's over," Will said. He kept his eyes on 
the television screen as Nora crossed the room, avoiding the sight of the 
two rounded orbs of her generous, undulating buttocks, her marvelous trim 
thighs, her full, firm, magnificent breasts. But even the thought of them 
made his penis jerk, begin to swell and stiffen. Oh, God! he thought. He 
wanted her so much! He'd always wanted her, and no one else. And he knew 
that Nora had never wanted another man. But then, did she want any man, 
including himself, he wondered. 

Oh, they made love often enough. He had her in the sack practically whenever 
he wanted; they screwed, God knows, they - Will's mounting lust, the ache in 
his loins, the dull, relentless throbbing of his now blood-swollen prick 
made him crude and vulgar - fucked, Goddamn it, they fucked. 

Will shook his head. No, that wasn't quite right, he thought. He fucked 
Nora. And Nora put on a good show for him, squirming and bucking and 
thrashing beneath him, letting out little mewls and murmurs of pleasure as 
she lay back, legs splayed open obscenely, to expose the full, flat plane of 
her thrusting crotch, acting for all the world as if she enjoyed it. 

But Goddamn it, she was acting. Always acting. 

Will sighed, and poured himself a scotch, stiff and straight. Then he 
switched off the television set and sat in the dark, sipping the drink. 

It had always been like this, he thought. Not that he blamed Nora for it. He 
knew the hell her life had been before, with that drunken father, that 
doormat of a mother. He knew his wife was - what was that word psychiatrists 
used? "projecting?" - that Nora was projecting, every time he took her. 
Instead of the two of them, Mr. and Mrs. Will Tracy, making love and getting 
a whale of a kick out of their sex life, it seemed to Nora to be her old man 
brutally raping her old lady. Christ, there were times when Will was so fed 
up with it, he'd wanted to do just that himself, ram his cock right up her 
belly, boring and pounding and slamming into her tight, resistant little 
passage until he almost split her open, while, half out of her mind with the 
excruciatingly painful pleasure, she screamed and scratched and... Oh! 
Christ! How could he even think such rotten things! Nora was a wonderful 
woman and he loved her. 

But God! If she'd only do something like letting him watch her undress! That 
was all he asked! To see Nora as she let that little linen outfit she wore 
fall to the floor, tumble around her feet, watch as she bent to pick it up, 
turning the full, rounded spheres of her buttocks towards him so that he saw 
the thin white strip of her nylon tighten between her thighs, then slip 
provocatively into the furrows between the cheeks of her lovely ass. Watch 
as she eased the wisp of cloth down over her voluptuous thighs, her slim, 
long legs, turning now to give him a glimpse of the luxurious curls of 
golden pussy hair at the base of her belly: watch as she removed the lacy 
brassiere she wore, releasing those magnificent breasts, so full, with their 
ruby-like nipples hardening in excitement, watch - Oh, Christ! 

Will glanced at his watch. Nora would be undressed and lying in bed now, 
waiting for him, in a discreet little nightgown that hid the marvelous 
contours of her luscious form. With a loud, sullen oath, Will hurled his 
glass into the fireplace, listening with pleasure as it smashed. Then he 
went up to the bedroom. 

Nora closed her eyes as Will entered the room. Now, she knew, he would be 
pulling off his tie, dropping it on the floor, struggling out of his pants, 
his shirts, his shorts. Then, as he finished undressing and reached the bed, 
stretching out his hand to her thin nightgown, lifting her gently to slip it 
from her shoulders, she shuddered involuntarily. Why did she always think of 
her father at a time like this? Will was different, gentle - Will loved her. 
Yet, trying her best, she still could not help herself, and she shuddered 
again as her husband bent to caress her nude body, then to fasten his hot, 
hungry mouth on her own. 

He eased himself to the bed beside her, stretching the full length of his 
body alongside hers. His mouth was on her own again, and then his tongue 
shot out, and Nora opened her lips to receive it as it sank deep within, 
leaving her gasping for breath. 

She flinched a little as his hands moved down to her heavy, swollen breasts 
and began to knead them, then roamed over her soft white belly, her hips, to 
explore and caress the smooth white sensitive skin between her thighs. Oh, 
God, she thought, she loved Will, she really did. Yet even his most tender 
ministrations somehow always sent little waves of terror - and yes, of 
revulsion, too - coursing through her. This is Will, she told herself. WILL! 
My husband, not my father. Yet in her twisted, traumatized mind, the two 
became inextricably mingled. 

He cupped the round, firm globes of her naked buttocks now, and Nora began 
to rock gently beneath him, grinding her nether cheeks deep into the 
mattress as she did so. That pleased men, she knew, from one of those sex 
manuals he had brought home once, leaving it lying unobtrusively around the 
house. And yet it gave her none of that ecstasy that same book promised her. 
Nor did she feel the thrills, the excitement other women felt as he trailed 
his hands over the soft curve of her body, down along the line of shimmering 
golden fuzz that ended in the softly growing strands of silky pubic hair 
over her vaginal mound. I mustn't let him know I don't like it, she thought 
in a moment of panic, and so she began to mewl and purr, as if with 
pleasure, when his hands moved up again over the gentle swell of her belly 
to her ripe trembling breasts. He took the snowy mounds in his two hands, 
cupping them, as her mother's scream of, "Sal! Oh, for God's sake, Sal! 
Don't!" welled up in her throat, to be choked back, swallowed, as it always 
was. Oh, God! Why was she like this? Why? WHY? 

Now she lay still beneath him, as he rubbed the stiff, bud-like tips of her 
nipples between his thumbs and forefingers, feeling a slight quiver of pain 
as he coaxed them into hard, pulsing little stones that pressed against his 
palms. 

Oh, no, she thought, as his mouth closed over one upright, button like 
nipple, as his tongue laved it voluptuously, as he began to suck on it with 
a delicacy that any other woman, as Nora knew, would find tantalizing and 
passion inspiring. But the fear that he might cruelly, viciously, bite into 
her sensitive flesh - as her father had bitten into her mother's - made her 
go almost rigid with fear. With a supreme effort of will, she forced herself 
to relax, to hide her feelings from her husband, to act as if she found the 
same soaring joy in his sexual overtures as he derived from them. He must 
never know the truth, she told herself, never! 

And so, as Will's hand crawled down her belly again, as it slid to the 
blondely silken strands at the base of it, Nora began to moan, with-little 
cries that might have been of passion coming from her throat. She increased 
the moans as he reached at last the warm, moist slit of her cuntal lips, 
then lay back, awaiting the moment when his finger would work its way into 
the wet, smoothly throbbing passage, vowing to herself not to whimper with 
the pain she was sure it would bring. 

Even so, she jerked back involuntarily at the feel of her husband's rigid 
cock pressed hard against her open thighs, at the sudden, sharp pang as one 
of his fingers worked its way slowly up into her narrow cuntal channel. She 
was supposed to writhe and squirm her vagina around his probing middle 
finger, she remembered from that sex book - it had been in Chapter VII, and 
Nora could almost see the words on the page before her half-closed eyes - 
and if that was what she was supposed to do, she would do it, while Will 
increased the rhythm of his finger-fucking up into her open cunt, 
withdrawing his digit at last to search out and caress the small pink nub of 
her little clitoris, doing his best to stroke it into hardness with quick, 
swirling motions. 

There were other things she was supposed to do, she remembered. She should 
take his penis in her hand, curling her fingers around it until he groaned 
with pleasure. Or tickle her nails over its smooth, rubbery head, along the 
underside of the stiff shaft, tease her fingertip up into the tiny parted 
hole. Or cradle and caress his silk-smooth, sperm-laden balls in the 
softness of her palms. 

But oh, dear God! How could she, she asked herself as his fingers plunged 
deep into her moist pink pussy again, impaling her, moving slowly, 
rhythmically, while Nora moaned to hide her true feelings, to persuade her 
husband that she was sharing this ultimate joy with him. 

There was a soft wet sucking sound, as he withdrew his fingers from her 
tight little cunt, and then, with his thumb and forefinger spreading the 
lips wide between her thighs, he drew it open and eased his jutting, 
rock-hard penis to the smooth pink edges of it. He parted the silken curling 
pubic hair, then slowly, with the huge, pulsating tip of his shaft, pressed 
aside the petal-like lips of her cunt, worming it slowly and gently into the 
warm, moist channel. 

As his surging cock burrowed in up to the final depths of her widely 
stretching pussy, Nora shifted so that her buttocks were upturned, the full 
plane of her nakedly impaled loins exposed to his driving cock. She began to 
moan wildly as he fucked in and out with long, quick strokes, his penis 
sinking in to the hilt, his semen-swollen balls slapping rhythmically 
against the nudely grinding cheeks of her ass. He gasped, "Oh God! Oh, my 
God!" and Nora knew that already the white hot juice was churning inside the 
smooth swollen sacs, that his pumping balls would spurt it forth soon, and 
so she began to gasp wildly into his ear, "Aaaaaaagh! AAAAAAAGH! I'm 
cumming, darling... I'M CUMMING!" as the hot, sticky sperm was forced in 
convulsive spasms up the full length of his rigidly pulsing cock to shoot 
wildly from the jerking tip deep into the forbidden recesses of her soft, 
quivering belly. 

When at last Will withdrew his limp, deflated penis from her cum-flooded 
vagina and rolled, exhausted, to Nora's side, she took his hand and held it 
to her lips. "That was sooooooo good!" she whispered huskily. 

But Will knew that the image of her father had been in her mind, and that 
she had only felt disgust for his efforts to fuck her and make her feel it. 
That idea made him disgusted, too. 

CHAPTER TWO 

Thursday dawned bright and clear. There were bits of cotton puff clouds 
drifting across the blue sky, and a cool wind gently fanned the palm trees 
and the acacias. Nora was up early, dressed and through the breakfast long 
before Will dragged himself from bed and under the icy spray of the 
glass-enclosed shower. By the time he was ready to leave, she was bustling 
about the living room, dusting and polishing, emptying ashtrays, plumping 
pillows. 

"What's the fuss about?" Will asked with a smile. 

"Gerta's coming!" Nora answered, straightening a blind. 

"I know that. But it seems to me, since Gerta's coming, you could relax, and 
let her do all this stuff when she gets here." 

Nora sighed, to let Will know she could never understand male logic. "I've 
got to have everything clean before she gets here," she explained. 
"Otherwise what will she think?" 

"She'll probably think she's damned lucky to be in a place like this... " he 
waved at the sunlit room, the patio and the pool beyond, "... no matter how 
the house looks." 

Nora's eyes widened. "Does it really look too awful, Will?" she asked. 

"Cool it, honey. It looks great. And try to take it easy today. I don't like 
to see you all tired out. You know that." 

"I know, Will." Nora patted his hand affectionately, then darted away to 
straighten a picture. "But I do want everything right for Gerta when she 
gets here." She paused to light a cigarette. "What do you think she'll be 
like, Will?" she asked anxiously. 

"She probably got two heads and eats babies for breakfast." 

"Oh, Will!" Nora pounded him with tiny, ineffective fists. "Be serious." 

"I'm not only serious," Will said, glancing at his watch. "In a minute, I'll 
be late." He started towards the door, with Nora at his heels. 

"Will, you will be back at three, so we can drive to the airport together?" 

Will raised his right hand. "I will be home at three. I will drive 
carefully. I won't forget your birthday. Scout's honor!" 

"Oh, Will! Please don't act like that! Not today." 

"I'm sorry, honey," Will said, flashing his wide grin at her. 

Nora smiled back, to show that all was forgiven. "See you at three," she 
said. 

After Will left, she went upstairs to arrange Gerta's room. When she'd 
finished cleaning, she stepped back, squinting, surveying the place. Didn't 
it seem a little cold? Almost at once, she thought of flowers. She hurried 
out to the garden, to pick a huge bouquet. 

Nora was in the kitchen, arranging them, when the telephone rang. She stuck 
a final delphinium into the vase, then picked up the instrument. Damn it, 
she thought, I don't have time to talk to anyone. 

"Hello," she said, and a strange voice came over the wires. Yes, she was 
Mrs. Will Tracy, Nora said, cradling the telephone between her shoulder and 
her chin while she continued to arrange the flowers. Yes, that was right. 
Mrs. Will Tracy. She wondered who it was and what they wanted and then she 
realized it was the operator speaking to her, telling her it was a personal 
call. 

"One moment, please!" 

"Yes?" Nora said. 

"Mrs. Tracy, are you Grace Schafer's sister?" 

"Of course," Nora said. Who would ask such a foolish question? 

There was a sign from the other end of the wire, and then the voice said, 
"Thank God. I've been able to reach you." 

A sudden wave of panic pounded through Nora. She felt her knees buckle, her 
hands shake. There was a loud crash as the heavy crystal vase fell from her 
lifeless fingers... and then she asked, "What... what is it?" 

"There's been an accident," the voice at the other end said. "It's pretty 
serious. She's been shaken up rather badly." 

It was the hospital calling, Nora understood, the one near Monterey, nearly 
three hundred miles away. And Nora was needed at once. Would she - could she 
- come? 

Nora nodded. "Yes," she managed to whisper at last, through the lump in her 
throat. Dazed, baffled by the news, she nevertheless managed to find a 
pencil and a pad of paper, to jot down the information necessary. When she 
put the telephone down at last, she was shaking like a leaf. 

She looked around at the debris on the floor - the shards of glass, the 
broken petals and pools of water - then instinctively cleaned it up. 

She was still shaking when she dialed Will's number, and a cry of 
frustration escaped her when his secretary informed her "Mr. Tracy is out." 

"Have him call me back, Karen," she urged. "As soon as he comes in. It's 
terribly important." 

"Is anything wrong, Mrs. Tracy?" Karen asked solicitously. 

Nora was too despondent to explain. "Just tell Mr. Tracy it's urgent," she 
repeated. 

She was packing her bag when Will at last called, throwing in a couple of 
nightgowns, a robe, the first few dresses that came to hand. At the sound of 
Will's voice, she burst into tears. "It's Grade," she sobbed. "There's been 
an accident. I have to go." 

"Honey, do you want me to come home?" 

"Yes. No. Yes!" Nora, confused, shook her head. "There isn't time," she 
said. 

"Don't you want me to drive up with you?" 

"Oh, yes. Please, yes." Nora put the phone down, and wiped away her tears 
with a bit of Kleenex. Suddenly she remembered Gerta. Today was the day 
Gerta was arriving! If Will drove to the hospital in Monterey with her, who 
would meet the girl? Hastily, Nora dialed Will's number again,, hoping to 
catch him before he left. 

"He's just gone out the door, Mrs. Tracy," Karen told her. 

"Oh, Karen! See if you can catch him!" 

She heard the telephone clatter to the desk, the sound of Karen's high heels 
clicking as she ran across the room, another sound - was it the opening of 
the door? - Karen's voice echoing down the corridor. She heard footsteps 
again, both Karen's frivolous ones and then Will's heavy footsteps, coming 
closer. Then Will asked, "What is it, Nora?" 

"Gerta!" 

It was a moment before Will understood. "Gerta?" 

"Yes, Gerta." Nora wailed. "She's coming this afternoon. Remember?" 

"Damn it, yes!" Will swore softly. 

"You'll have to pick her up, Will." 

"That means you'll have to drive all the way alone, honey." 

Nora wiped her eyes again. "I'll just have to, then," she said. "After all, 
someone has to pick her up." 

"Maybe I could get someone else to go... " Will began. But Nora cut him off. 
"You go, Will. I'll be perfectly all right. And at least, if you get Gerta, 
I won't have that on my mind too." 

"Okay, Nora. But call me tonight, will you?" 

"I will," Nora promised, cradling the phone again. She sat down and lit a 
cigarette, trying to compose herself. Her eyes swept around the room, as she 
ticked off in her mind the things she would need, the things she had packed. 
She'd remembered everything, she thought, snapping her suitcase shut and 
taking it downstairs. At the front door she stopped. Darn! Toothpaste and 
toothbrush. Hairbrush. Makeup- She hurried upstairs, dumped half the 
contents of the medicine cabinet into her bag. Downstairs, she checked for 
keys, money, cigarettes. Then she climbed into the car and started the 
motor. Carefully she backed out of the driveway. Everything would be all 
right, she told herself. Everything. 

At precisely twenty minutes after three, Will Tracy closed his desk drawer, 
said goodbye to his secretary, Karen Long, and went down to the Triumph 
convertible that stood at the curb. He climbed behind the wheel, paused long 
enough to put the top down and to turn on the radio. Then he headed the 
light blue sports car towards the airport. 

In spite of his concern for Nora and for Grace, he felt light-hearted. The 
weather - still perfect, still balmy - had something to do with it. But so, 
he knew, did Gerta. 

God damn! It would be nice to have a kid in the house again! He and Nora had 
been a lot more lonely than either cared to admit, with both Todd and Ellen 
gone. And even if Gerta was grown-up enough to leave her own home - yes, and 
to travel half way around the world to take a job - she was still just a 
kid. 

And a cute one too, Will thought, remembering the photo she'd sent. He 
patted his breast pocket where he carried it now. He might need it, in order 
to recognize her. Not that there would be many girls like Gerta getting off 
the plane. Not that there were many girls like Gerta anywhere. 

She looked like a young - a very young - Norse goddess, at least in the snap 
that Will carried. Perfect features, marvelous high cheekbones, full lips 
slightly parted over white, even teeth, and her crowning glory, 
shoulder-length, ash-blonde hair. There was something exciting - something 
almost spine-tingling - about Gerta's expression, too, about the way she 
stared out from Under half-closed eyelids. In an older woman, it would have 
been an unmistakable invitation; but Gerta was just a child, young enough to 
be his daughter, and in her it might have been simply impishness, or maybe 
insolence. Will wasn't sure what it was, but he sure as hell liked it. 

He pulled the car into the parking lot at the airport, and glanced at his 
watch. Just on time, he noted with satisfaction. He got out and strolled to 
the huge waiting room, and scanned the bulletin board marking incoming 
flights. There it was! Flight number four-six-one - already in, with 
passengers disembarking at gate number seven. He loped towards it, looking 
over the crowd. 

A couple of tired businessmen headed it, carrying briefcases under their 
arms. Behind them was a group of chattering, middle-aged women, in 
flower-splashed cotton dresses, laden with Mexican hats and baskets, 
souvenirs of their vacations. There were a couple of quarreling children 
next, ducking and spinning around their harassed mother. And then... Will 
let out a long, low whistle. My God, he thought. Gerta isn't just cute! 
She's gorgeous. 

She was tinier than Will expected, and - younger, too. She'd written that 
she "would be eighteen", Will remembered. But she hadn't said exactly when 
she'd be eighteen, he thought wryly. And she hardly looked older than a 
child. 

But Christ! she was magnificently proportioned. Her thighs were rich and 
full, her pert little tilted breasts that strained as if to escape the 
confining fabric of her low-cut peasant blouse were lush and ripe. She 
turned, and Will noted with a sigh of intense sexual feeling, provocative, 
sensual little half melons of her rounded buttocks. In spite of himself, he 
watched with open mouth as Gerta moved down the exit ramp, while the 
shortest of mini skirts twitched encriantingly over her charmingly 
undulating little bottom. 

Half way to the waiting room, Gerta stopped and looked around. Her lips were 
half-opened, her eyes wide. Then a slight frown wrinkled her smooth clear 
brow. Will, startled, realized she was looking for Nora. 

He began to wave wildly. "Over here," he called. "Over here." 

Gerta still wore a puzzled expression as she walked towards Will and looked 
up at him. He grabbed her tiny hand in his own and pumped it heartily up and 
down. "Hi," he said. "You must be Gerta Jensen." 

A sudden bright smile of comprehension lit Gerta's face. "You must be Mr. 
Tracy," she said. Her eyes darted around the room quickly. "But where is 
Mrs. Tracy?" 

"It's Will," Tracy said jovially. "And it's Nora - not Mr. and Mrs. Tracy. 
And Nora couldn't come. I'll tell you about it later. But let's get your 
bags, meanwhile." He noticed the small flight bag Gerta carried. "Here, let 
me take that." 

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Tracy," Gerta said, lowering her eyes demurely. "I mean, 
'Will'." 

They said little to one another until, luggage collected, they reached the 
car. As Gerta slid in beside the older man, he explained Nora's absence, and 
a look of compassion crossed the girl's face. "Oh, dear," she said softly. 
"I do hope Nora's sister will be all right." Impulsively, she reached over 
and gave Will's hand a friendly squeeze. 

Will smiled. Nice kid, he thought, trying to draw his hand away. But Gerta 
clung to it, and her slim, tapering fingers began a slow, sensuous stroking 
of his palm that sent little chills of excitement dancing up and down Will's 
spine. My God! Did the kid know what she was doing? He gave her a quick, 
sidelong glance, pulling his hand from hers and placing it firmly on the 
steering wheel. Gerta let her own hand fall to Will's thigh. 

Will sucked in his breath, staring at her in the rear-view mirror. What the 
hell was this kid? Some sort of sex maniac? He glanced over at the 
blonde-covered young head beside him. Christ, no! She couldn't be. She was 
too sweet, too young. It was all in his own mind! 

And in his pants, too, he thought, feeling his prick jerk and swell. God! 
What was he? Some sort of pervert? This was only a child sitting beside him 
- Jesus, it might have been Ellen, five years ago - and here he was getting 
a hard-on, his balls aching, his rod going stiff as a poker. You're a dirty 
old man, Will Tracy, he told himself. He glanced down at his pants, seeing 
the huge bulge there. God, he hoped Gerta didn't notice. 

If she did, she gave no sign of it. Instead she sat, turning her head from 
one side to the other to stare at the motels and drive-ins and coffee shops 
that lined the highway. She chattered brightly, too: "Oh, I'm going to love 
California. I know I am." 

"I'm sure you are, Gerta." 

"And I'm going to love you, too," Gerta blurted. 

"I hope you'll like me... us," Will corrected. "I hope you'll like us both." 

"Oh, I will," Gerta purred. She turned and smiled again, inching over on the 
seat so that her slim, bare, golden thigh now touched Will's trousered leg 
pressed sensuously against it. Quivering, Will shifted his body, to escape 
the young Danish girl's maddening nearness. She seemed surprised, then hurt. 
For a long time she was silent and when she spoke at last, it was in a 
still, shy voice. "You know," she said, "all the way over, on the plane, I 
was thinking about you. And you know, I was afraid you wouldn't want me to 
stay!" 

"Not want you to stay!" Will boomed, with false heartiness. "Now that's a 
silly thing to say.'" 

"Then you do want me?" 

"Sure I want you," Will said without thinking. 

"Oh, Will," Gerta chirped. "Pm glad." She sighed and lowered her eyes, 
fluttering her lashes. "Because," and her husky voice was sultry, "because I 
want you!" 

Will felt a burning on the back of his neck, behind his ears. He stared 
straight ahead, swallowing hard, while his cock again jerked convulsively. 
Gerta didn't know what she was saying! She couldn't. She'd heard some line 
like that in a movie or something, read it in a book. That was all. And why 
the hell had he said "I"? Why hadn't he said "we"? "We want you." No, he'd 
had to blurt out something stupid, and poor Gerta had tried to cover up for 
him. Jesus, he could have kicked himself. What the hell did she think of 
him! That he was lewd and evil, that's what. Why, the poor kid was probably 
scared of him by now, afraid even to go out to the house with him, with Nora 
away and everything. 

Will cleared his throat and tried to smile at Gerta. Maybe he could explain 
things somehow, make her understand, make it all right. "I hope you don't 
mind Nora's being away tonight," he began. "And maybe for a couple of 
nights," he added. 

Gerta shook her head. "No," she said. "Why should I?" 

Will shrugged. "Oh, I just thought you might you know," he said, wondering 
if Gerta was telling the truth or just being polite. Maybe he should have 
her stay next door, with Sue and Brad Brogan; they'd have room, and that way 
the girl wouldn't feel uneasy with him, after all the bloopers he'd made. 

He turned to look at her, and saw the puzzled expression on her face. "Why 
should I?" she repeated. 

Will's bluff laugh had a hollow ring to it "Well," he said heartily, "I just 
thought you might not want to be alone in the house with a strange man. You 
know... " His voice trailed off with embarrassment. "... you know how it 
is... " 

"Oh, I don't mind," Gerta said at once. She smoothed her skirt demurely over 
the tops of her voluptuous, golden-hued legs, then ran her hand slowly, 
lewdly, teasingly along Will's thigh. "We could have fun, all alone," she 
said, breathing heavily. "We could - how do you say it? - we could play 
house together!" 

CHAPTER THREE 

Will slid the car into the garage and cut the motor. "End of the line!" he 
said with forced brightness. "All out here." he eased himself from the 
driver's seat, went around to the other side and opened the door for Gerta. 
She hopped out, seemed to stumble, and as Will caught her, threw her arms 
around his neck. "Oooooh!" she squealed. "I fell." She maneuvered herself a 
little closer to Will, clinging to his neck, pulling her lithe young body 
close to his strong, athletic one, the tiny, tender buttons of her nipples 
grinding into his chest like hard, bright beads, her pulsing little pussy 
pressing hard against his cock. 

"Hey! Steady there!" Will gasped, then peeled her off and set her down. He 
took his handkerchief out and wiped his forehead. "Whew!" he breathed. "Sure 
is hot!" 

"Think so?" Gerta shot back at him, and then darted off down the driveway 
and towards the garden path. Will groaned, watching the brief skirt flipping 
above the rippling gold of her full thighs, swinging over the taut, tight 
little half moons of her young, liquidly moving buttocks, watching, too, the 
pert lewd little breasts tilted lasciviously under the thin sheer fabric of 
her blouse. 

Jesus Christ! How was he going to handle her? 

Handle! The ill-chosen word sent an obscene image careening through his mind 
in which his unimpeded fingers explored her slim young body, caressed the 
firm little breasts, traced the swell of her gold flecked belly, roamed 
downward to part the silky patch of sparse, curling pubic hair that nestled 
between the milky, sensuous thighs. He shook his head as if to clear it and 
wiped his forehead again. Get your mind out of the gutter, Will Tracy, he 
ordered sternly. She's practically a babe in arms. But looking at the flaxen 
blonde, dancing across the flagstones of the path, leaning over to pluck a 
flower while the mini-mini she wore rode half-way up her tight little ass, 
exposing the brief nylon panties she wore, he sucked in his breath. The 
sheer strip of fabric tightened snugly between her firm, lush thighs, and 
slipped excitingly into the thinly dividing crevice between her buttocks. He 
let out his breath with a slow whistle, Christ! He wished to hell he wasn't 
alone with her... he wished to hell Nora was home. 

The thought of his wife sent his stomach plummeting. What a bastard he was, 
getting hot in the pants over this little cock teaser when Nora was taking 
care of her injured, possibly dying, sister. He sighed again, then stooped 
over and picked up Gerta's bags. "This way," he called as formally as he 
could. 

Gerta looked up, smiling. "This way!" 

He carried the suitcases into the house, waited for Gerta to appear, then 
shooed her upstairs. "Your room's down the hall," he said, nodding towards 
it. He followed her in and set her luggage down. "There's a bathroom over 
there... you might want to freshen up or something." He looked around; 
everything seemed to be in order, thanks to Nora. "I guess everything's 
okay," he said. "I'm going downstairs to have a drink. If you want anything, 
call me." 

"You mean 'just whistle?' " Gerta grinned impishly. 

Will wheeled around. So she'd seen that movie, too. Well, he certainly 
wasn't going to do -that... if that was what she wanted. "I'm going 
downstairs," he said, going out closing the door behind him. 

He went into the kitchen and mixed a Martini for himself. He put the shaker 
and a glass on a tray, then got a Coke out of the refrigerator and another 
glass for Gerta. She'd be down soon, he knew. He carried the tray into the 
living room and sat down heavily on one of the sofas. 

He put his head in his hands and closed his eyes. God, if only he could 
think things through, sort everything out. He didn't want to think of this 
girl who was going to be sharing their home that way at all. Yet he couldn't 
erase the thought of that gorgeous figure, the round little breasts, smooth 
and white and inviting, the twin globes of her delicious little ass cheeks, 
the... oh, Christ! 

He looked up and she was standing there. "Want a Coke?" he asked. 

The girl shook her head. "I'd rather have what you have," she said. 

"I'm having a Martini, and you're having a Coke," Will said firmly. 

Gerta pouted. "I want a Martini too." 

"Tough!" Will opened the Coke bottle and poured the foaming liquid into a 
glass. "Here." 

Gerta made a face, but took it anyway. She sat cautiously towards him until 
her slim, sensuous thigh rubbed against his leg. She rested her head on his 
shoulder. "Something's wrong," she said. 

"Nothing's wrong." 

"Maybe... " and the lower lip trembled, the eyes filled with tears "... 
maybe you don't like me." 

"Look, Gerta, I like you. I think you're great. It's just that... that... " 
Will swallowed hard as the girl turned her body toward him and brushed her 
firm, luscious breasts against his arm next to her. His mouth suddenly felt 
dry and he licked his lips over and over. Why the hell did she do this to 
him! Just the sight of that voluptuous young body, practically bursting out 
of the skimpy outfit she wore, was enough to make his balls ache and his 
thick cock stiffen and jerk inside his pants. Jesus! He'd give anything to 
get her in the sack with him. give her what she was so blatantly begging 
for, send his throbbing, rigid penis plunging deep inside her time after 
time while she moaned and thrashed her hot little body under him. Jesus! 
He'd like to screw the kid silly... ! Suddenly he asked, "How old are you, 
Gerta?" 

Gerta lowered her eyes, her long, black lashes fluttering against her 
alabaster skin. "Fourteen and a half," she whispered. 

"Fourteen! You wrote that you were 'going to be eighteen'." 

"I had to," Gerta said. "Or you wouldn't have sent for me." 

Roughly, Will pushed her away and got up. "I'm going to get myself another 
drink," he said, his voice shaking with self-recrimination. He went into the 
kitchen, fumbling in the semi-darkness for ice, gin and vermouth. Fourteen! 
That was jail bait, wasn't it? He stirred his drink, feeling sick and 
disgusted. Setting the shaker down, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. 
What if this were Ellen? What would he do? 

He poured a drink and swallowed it in one gulp. Then he poured another. He 
knew damned well what he'd do - just what he ought to do to the cock teasing 
kid. March her upstairs to her room, seat himself on the bed there and yank 
her across his knees, pulling her skirt up over the soft, rounded cheeks of 
her buttocks while he gave her the spanking of her life. What did he care if 
she kicked and screamed? He'd wallop that little bottom until it turned beet 
red, raining one smarting blow after another oh the tender flesh while she 
howled and sobbed and begged for mercy. And he wouldn't stop, either, until 
angry red welts appeared under those flimsy white panties she wore. By God! 
That's what he would have done to Ellen. And God help him, he'd do it yet to 
Gerta! 

With a wicked gleam of malice, he shifted his drink to his other hand, 
picked up a bowl of potato chips and another Coke, and carried everything 
into the living room. He handed the Coke to Gerta, and when she'd sipped 
daintily at it for a few minutes, he asked, "Are you hungry?" 

Gerta shook her head. "Well," Will said. "I am. I'm going to fix a sandwich 
- one for you, too, if you want it." 

"Let me make it," Gerta said, springing to her feet. "That's what I'm here 
for, isn't it?" She shot him a sultry, heavy-lidded look that let him know 
she was available for a Jot else, too, then got up and meandered across the 
room, her tight little ass twitching and swaying its own invitation back to 
him. 

Will waited nervously for her to come back. 

What the hell was the matter with him, sniffing around this little bitch 
like a dog in heat? He was old enough to be her grandfather - or almost. Oh, 
sure, he was a man, and there had been plenty of times before when he'd had 
the hots for some little chick, someone even a lot younger than he was. But 
here he was now, panting after this baby, almost lusting for a chance to 
slip some meat into that little pink pussy of hers. God! That would really 
be robbing the cradle. 

He sighed as Gerta came back, carrying two plates with sandwiches on them. 
He gulped his quickly, washing it down with the glass of beer she brought to 
him. Then, abruptly, he got up. "I'm going to turn in," he announced. And, 
as an afterthought, "You can leave the dishes if you want. I'll show you how 
to work the dishwasher in the morning." Ignoring the disappointed look on 
her face, he went up to his room, shut the door and locked it. 

After a cold shower, which didn't help him very much, he lay down on the bed 
and closed his eyes. A little while later, he heard her climb the stairs and 
go to her room. He lay still, thinking of her ripe, voluptuous young body, 
her long, slender, well-shaped legs, her full, lush white rounded breasts. 

His mind began to wander, and he remembered an x-rated movie he'd seen not 
long before with Nora. It had been one of those foreign movies, and there'd 
been a girl in it even younger than Gerta. But she'd had the same pert 
little face, the small, straight nose, the long-lashed eyes, the gorgeous 
ash-blonde hair. The movie had been about the girl's "Growing Up" - that was 
what the film was called. But it wasn't the ordinary case of growing up, 
getting older and bigger and wiser, too. This daring film emphasized sex in 
the little girl's life, from the days when she first began to notice it, 
through the time she had her first love affair and on, until she was shown - 
yes, actually shown - in a perverted episode where two men were fucking her 
at the same time. 

An early scene from the film flashed through Will's mind, the one where the 
little girl - and damned if it couldn't have been Gerta herself - was out 
playing on the beach, tossing a ball up in the air and catching it, tossing 
up again. But then she missed the ball, and it sailed off towards a beach 
house, half hidden in a clump of pines on a bluff. The little girl ran after 
it, even went up the steps of the house and onto the wide porch at the front 
of it. Something in the window there caught her eye, and forgetting about 
the ball, she went over to peer inside. And there, Will recalled, were two 
women, making love! 

The older one, wearing some sort of beach robe, had slipped her hand under 
the top of the other, a younger girl's bikini, eased it down over the 
whiteness of her shoulders, exposing her firm, lust pointed breasts to full 
view. She began to stroke the magnificent rounded globes with a soft, 
tantalizing movement, pausing to take the rosy buds of her nipples between 
strong slim fingers, rolling and teasing and taunting them into hard little 
knobs. Then as the little girl who looked so much like Gerta watched the 
lewd, lesbian scene through the window, the older woman stripped the bottom 
of the girl's bikini from her, and in almost the same gesture, dropped her 
own robe to the floor. 

The camera lingered on the soft firm flesh, the luxurious curves of the 
voluptuous nude bodies of the two women for a long, close-up shot. That of 
the older one was as magnificent, as breathtaking as that of the younger, 
her high-set rounded breasts firm and full, her voluptuous, white-fleshed 
thighs sensuously curved, her belly gently swelling and sloping down to the 
soft triangle of silken strands that covered her pubic mound. The younger of 
the lovers was a smaller model of the same lovely figure, her ripening young 
breasts firm, yet not so full, her smooth, deliciously rounded thighs not 
quite so heavy. 

Will had caught his breath, embarrassed that Nora was sitting there watching 
the whole sordid show with him. And then he'd stared in shocked amazement as 
the older woman drew the younger one to her, holding the lithe young body 
tight against her own throbbing nakedness, pressing her nude -figure against 
that of the girl so that her pointed breasts crushed against her own, their 
nipples meeting, while the pale, downy pubic fleece of one brushed the long, 
silky strands of the other's pubic hair. Again the couple was caught in a 
long close-up, and then the camera followed the hand of the older woman as 
it crawled tantalizingly down her friend's smooth flesh to the firmly 
rounded globes of her buttocks, gently easing the cheeks apart, pausing 
while, with a fingertip, she teased into the tightly puckered little opening 
of her anus. 

Now the hands of the older woman roamed again over the trembling white body 
of the young girl, to her sensuous silky soft thighs that quivered at her 
touch. Seizing them firmly but gently, she spread them apart, then slid to 
her knees, and thrusting her head forward into the open spread of her loins, 
began to rain kisses on the fleecy patch between the girl's thighs. 
Carefully, and as gently as before, the older woman spread the slim tapered 
legs of the younger one even wider. Then she placed her two thumbs on the 
soft hair-covered lips of the light little vagina, parting them exposing the 
long narrow slit within to the view of the small child, still peering, 
transfixed, through the window. 

My God, Will thought, that's outrageous, showing a child such obscenities. 
It was bad enough for adults to know about things like that... but a child! 
He shuddered, even now. at the recollection. 

Suddenly, the woman's head snaked forward again, her tongue darted out, and 
the audience - and the little girl - could see it lick the small pink bud of 
the young woman's clitoris, flicking back and forth around the tender little 
mound, teasing it into a taut erection. The camera cut then to the little 
girl, still standing with her nose pressed against the window, watching the 
lewd perverted sight, and then Will heard Nora gasp as the child's small 
hand slid down to the hem of her short little dress, slipped under it, and 
two of her tiny fingers nipped under the elastic of her lace-edged panties, 
apparently found the hairless little slit of her own tiny pussy, then 
settled on her miniscule clitoris, rubbing it back and forth, back and 
forth, matching the rhythm of the two women reaching a climax together. Just 
as a violent shudder racked the small girl, the image on the screen 
dissolved. 

There were scenes, after, of the little girl, supposedly a few years later, 
slipping off with a young boy who was shown as her schoolmate, to a 
tree-shaded park, where the two of them stripped and the half-grown girl 
examined the boy's penis, even holding it in her hand and massaging it into 
a stiff little erection. There was a long episode with the girl, now an 
adolescent, with her first lover. But the part of the picture that stuck in 
Will's memory was that in which the girl - he still couldn't get over how 
much she looked like Gerta - had two men at one and the same time, sucking 
the huge, inflated penis of the first until he shot his milk-white sperm 
deep into her throat, while, at the same time, she lay beneath a second man 
who wormed and burrowed and ploughed into the warm, moist hidden recesses of 
her eagerly welcoming vaginal passage. 

The whole film came back to Will, now, and he seemed to see the girl who 
looked like Gerta stretched languidly on top of a fur-covered king-size bed. 
She was dressed in a skimpy little bra - barely big enough to cover her 
tiny, jutting nipples - and a little patch of cloth that turned out to be 
her panties. With the utmost lack of concern, she casually stripped the 
doll-sized garments from her, tossing them carelessly on the floor, then lay 
back, while the high-powered camera played lovingly over the snowy mounds of 
her breasts, paused a moment to show the dark, blood-red nipples, the 
brownish-gold aureoles that crowned them. The camera moved downwards then, 
catching the delicious sweep of the slim yet swelling belly, focusing at 
last on the luxurious triangle of shimmering gold that hid the fleshy pink 
folds of the tight, moist pussy. Now the girl, with a sudden, seductive 
movement, spread her legs slightly, and the camera angled back to show the 
edges of the tender pink folds before it passed quickly, lightly over the 
small, perfect pearl of the tiny clitoris within. 

As the girl lay there, the door opened, and a handsome blond youth, no older 
than she, entered the room. As casually as if he were combing his hair, he 
began to undress, dropping his turtleneck sweater at the foot of the bed on 
which the girl lay, stripping to his shorts, then easing them down over his 
lithe, slim hips, while his virile young cock, already rigid and 
blood-swollen, sprang proudly forth. In no time, the youth was kneeling 
above the girl's outstretched body, his head bent over the open vee of her 
crotch, as he explored her tender, pulsating little cunt. Like a surgeon 
laying bare the nerves and sinews on which he is to operate, the boy spread 
open the girl's fleshy, jagged cuntal lips, exposed the moist coral walls of 
her vagina, probed deep until he came upon the tiny throbbing pearl of her 
clitoris, then displayed that, like a precious jewel, to the all-seeing eye 
of the photographer's lens. 

And now the camera angle switched still another time, and caught the boy's 
wildly flicking pointed tongue as it lashed out towards the erect little 
knob of the girl's clitoris, licked at it lasciviously, then deserted it to 
sink deep into her throbbing pussy, while from the sound track came a series 
of moans and whimpers, and finally a long, loud, sustained groan. 

Will groaned, too, with a sudden surge of lust at the lewd sight before him, 
the obscene depravity he witnessed. He felt Nora's fingernails digging 
frantically into his arms at that moment and the gesture brought him back to 
himself with a start. He glanced at his wife, and even in the dim light saw 
the embarrassed flush spread across her face. It was a lousy thing he'd 
done, bringing Nora to a place like this, and he knew he ought to get up 
then, take his wife by the arm and lead her out, apologizing to her 
profusely. Instead, though, he sat as if glued to his seat, staring at the 
vile exploits on the screen in front of him. 

Even as the boy nibbled lewdly at the tiny tender button of the girl's 
erectly pulsating clitoris, mouthing it obscenely, the door to the room 
opened again, and a second youth - looking for all the world like the first 
- entered. The couple on the bed glanced briefly in his direction, nodding 
almost imperceptibly to acknowledge his presence, then continued their vile, 
depraved actions. The second boy seemed completely unconcerned by what they 
were doing, but instead of leaving,, he, too, stripped to his smooth, 
sun-bronzed skin, revealing, as the first boy had, his hard, young cock, 
already as stiff and unyielding as a fixed lance. 

The camera zoomed in to show the thick, fleshy shaft now, the bulbous, 
purplish swollen head, with the tiny drops of lubricating fluid beginning 
already to ooze from the tiny parted hole at the tip. In a minute Will saw 
the slim, tapered fingers of the girl dart forth, to curl sensuously around 
the youth's lust-rigid rod, then begin, slowly and rhythmically, to stroke 
it. Back and forth, back and forth her hand moved, drawing the heavy 
foreskin up and down over his now whitely glistening hardness. Suddenly her 
tiny, cat-like tongue shot out, flicking off the drops of thin white 
moisture that still clung to the head, and then, a moment later, she turned 
her face, and her soft, wet lips opened wide to warmly encircle the hugely 
stiffened cock. 

The director of the film dwelt for a long time on this dual ravishment of 
the young woman, showing shot after shot of one youth licking maddeningly at 
the petal-like flesh of her cuntal lips, following the thin, long folds of 
the narrow crevice, then thrusting deep into the hot moist depths of her now 
wetly drenched little pussy, while the jerking, iron-hard cock of the second 
boy ploughed in and out of her widely ovaled mouth. As Will watched the girl 
suck on and on, her cheeks tightening about the thick fleshy penis, her 
tongue swirling hotly around it, his own cock began to throb and ache and 
jerk, his bloated balls to churn with their load of white hot sperm until he 
thought he would go out of his mind. He thought of Nora, sitting next to 
him, and how he'd like to do to her what he saw on the screen, and suddenly 
a chill damp wind seemed to blow over him. Christ, he knew she'd never give 
him anything like that. She never had. And now he was dying for it, feeling 
the furious aching desire mount steadily in his loins, course the length of 
his nearly erect penis. Sometime he'd like to fuck Nora the way the two boys 
in the film were fucking the blonde girl, and Christ but he'd like to have 
Nora respond the way the girl on the screen was responding. 

Now the first boy raised his head, throwing it back like that of a young 
lion, and his lean, strong body shot forward as he straddled the girl. With 
one hand he guided his moist, slippery prick to the wide-spread lips of the 
little blonde's hot, desire-drenched pussy, slowly parting her silky pubic 
hair with it pulsing, throbbing tip. Then, with a cry of wild abandon, he 
arched backwards, suddenly flicking his hips to thrust his fleshy cock deep 
into her tightly quivering little cunt. 

The girl gave a choked, muffled scream as she took his young male hardness 
deep inside her belly. Then the boy began to fuck mercilessly into the tight 
little passage, in and out, in and out, ramming in the full length of the 
moist, hot cavern while she bucked and thrashed beneath him, and while the 
second youth fucked her in her widely ovaled mouth, his young cock spearing 
far back into her throat, pulling forward while she clung hungrily to it, 
sucking at it like a famished child at its mother's breast. The two men 
quickened their strokes, both grinding in and out, faster and faster and 
deeper until the smooth, sperm-filled balls of one slapped sharply against 
the girl's upturned, rounded young buttocks while those of the other smacked 
rhythmically against her chin. Then, as the two of them, almost together, 
gave a last brutal thrust, the girl let out another muffled wail, and Will 
saw the three of them shudder in a wild, orgiastic climax that sent their 
hot, thick sperm spewing into the girl's drenched, throbbing pussy, coursing 
wetly down her throat. Satiated at last, her long slim legs splayed out 
obscenely over the edges of the narrow bed, as she lay drained of all 
strength after the exhausting, passionate exhibition she had just given. The 
youths lay back, too, relaxed and spent beside the girl's slim body, as the 
cameras pulled back again and the picture faded from the screen. 

Will had cleared his throat, trying to find something to say to Nora. But he 
could think of nothing and was afraid that if he did, his voice would betray 
the powerful excitement pulsing through him like an electric current. 
Instead, he took Nora's arm and propelled her towards the door, pausing only 
briefly outside before leading her to the car parked nearby. 

Once home, he'd poured himself a stiff drink, while Nora went upstairs and 
prepared for bed. 

He was nearly drunk by the time he followed her; that night he had come 
closer to losing all control than he had ever had with Nora. He stripped her 
clothes away brutally, crushed her soft, warm breasts in strong, bruising 
fingers, and at last plunged his aching, swollen cock far into her quivering 
belly with no thought whatsoever for her desires, no solicitude. 

Then, at the last minute, he'd known he couldn't treat his wife this way, 
and had pulled out, stamping out of the room, slamming the door after him. 
He'd spent the night in the guest room, hearing Nora's agonized sobs through 
the closed door. The next day he apologized: "I guess I was pretty rough 
last night, Nora. Pretty damned crude. I don't know what got into me. I'm 
sorry." And she gave him that look which announced, plain as day, that that 
was only to be expected - wasn't he a man? - and weren't all men animals? 

He'd known then it was no use with Nora. They would struggle on all their 
lives, the way they always had. He sighed, and resigned himself. 

Now, lying in bed alone, with the young Scandinavian girl in the room down 
the hall, the memory of the night unrolled before him. He saw the movie 
again from beginning to end, this time with Gerta - and not just someone who 
looked like her - in the leading role. And the nearness of the young girl 
sent leaping flames searing through his loins again. God, he thought, it 
would be good with her. He knew she'd give it to him, too. He wondered if he 
would be bastard enough to take it. 

CHAPTER FOUR 

Will slept badly, when he slept at all that night. In the morning he was in 
a foul mood, almost as if he had a hangover. Christ, he, thought, it isn't 
fair - all those little men with mallets sitting inside my head and pounding 
on it, for the teeny weeny bit I had to drink! 

He shook his head, trying to clear it, wondering drowsily what it was that 
worried him so. He remembered Gerta then, and groaned. Something was going 
to give, and soon, he thought. Unless he could do something about it - and 
he couldn't think of what to do, short of throwing her out, or getting out 
himself. And he couldn't very well just send the girl away. How the hell 
would he explain that to Nora? 

Nora? 

Damn, wasn't he supposed to have called her, the night before? Or was she to 
have called him? ) He couldn't remember; he was certain, though, that they 
had planned to talk to one another by phone. And he was just as certain that 
they hadn't. 

Or maybe he'd forgotten everything that had happened the night before - 
maybe he'd wanted to. Maybe he'd screwed that little bitch Gerta, the way 
she'd begged him to, and couldn't even remember it. He could be suffering 
from amnesia, couldn't he? 

Yes, he told himself. He could be. But it wasn't very likely. So he'd better 
try to get in touch with Nora now and then get to his office - and on the 
double. 

He dressed and showered and went downstairs to make coffee before Gerta got 
up. He found that she'd set the table for his breakfast and even prepared it 
for him, the night before. There was a tall glass of orange juice in the 
refrigerator. The coffee was measured out into the percolator, which was set 
on the kitchen counter, just waiting to be plugged in. There was even a 
scrawled . note that said, "Good Morning!" 

Will crumpled it up and threw it across the room. Then, while the coffee 
perked, he put a call through to Grace Schafer's. house, hoping Nora was 
still there, and that she hadn't left yet for the hospital. 

The ringing on the other end seemed interminable; Will was almost ready to 
hang up when a breathless Nora answered. She'd been on her way out, she 
said, just closing the front door, when she'd heard the telephone, and had 
rushed back in to answer. Grace? Pretty bad, Nora admitted, but not so bad 
as they'd thought. A fractured hip, a sprained shoulder, and various cuts 
and bruises. But the x-rays had shown no internal injuries, thank God. 

"Will you be back soon?" Will asked, seizing at a straw. She had to go, 
then. Grace was expecting her; besides, she wanted a chance to talk to the 
doctor. "I'll call you tonight, darling," she finished. 

He went back to his breakfast, and was just finishing when Gerta came 
downstairs. She was wearing hot pants today, brief little shorts that barely 
covered the jiggling little cheeks of her enticingly rounded bottom, that 
stretched tight across them, clinging to Gerta like the skin of a peach 
clinging to the fruit inside. God, Will thought, she probably has to strip 
them off with a potato peeler. She sat down, and the pants caught in the 
little cleft of her pussy, obscenely outlining the thin narrow slit there. 
Above the pants, she wore a bright, tailored blouse, open almost to her 
navel, flapping wide to expose her lewdly tilted little breasts. 

Will took a gulp of coffee and choked on it. In a fit of coughing he wiped 
his mouth and rose from the table. "See you later, Gerta," he said, waving 
in a vain attempt to be cheerful. "Have a good day." 

His own day was miserable. A sale he'd been counting on for weeks fell 
through; his most important client failed to show. To make matters worse, 
Karen, his secretary, was in a lousy mood, too. It had something to do with 
a fight she'd had with her boyfriend; Will, though, never found out what the 
fight was about. Still, Karen was in a lousy mood, and slammed the 
typewriter carriage return home hard at the end of each line, until Will 
thought he would go mad. And, of course, he kept thinking of Gerta, all 
dressed up in that tight little pants outfit of hers, and every time he did, 
he felt his prick lurch and his balls begin to ache. He worried about Nora, 
too, and wished he could reach her, somehow, without alarming her. But he 
didn't know how to do that, so he sat at his desk, squirming and stewing; 
finally, when Karen began to shoot puzzled looks at him, he got up, slammed 
the desk drawers shut with a loud bang, and headed for the golf course. 

His game was way off, and when he got tired of whacking at the ball and 
missing, he packed up his clubs and headed for the bar. He nursed a couple 
of martinis, trying to decide what to do. He'd have to go home sometime, he 
knew, and he knew that when he got there, Gerta would be waiting for him, 
ready and willing to "play house" as she put it. Still, he realized at last, 
he could ward off temptation, at least for a while, by taking Gerta out to 
dinner. He'd be less inclined to rape her if there were others watching. 

From the bar he called the house. "Hi, Gerta!" he greeted her. "Why don't 
you slip into your best bib and tucker, and I'll take you out for dinner?" 

Gerta's answer was a delighted squeal, and a promise to be ready "when you 
get here, Will". 

She wasn't, though. When Will parked the convertible in the front of the 
house, Gerta was still lying by the pool in a bikini so small it reminded 
him of nothing more than a Band-Aid with a couple of beauty patches in 
strategic places. "Hey," he said, "I thought I told you to get some clothes 
on." 

Gerta stood up, letting the straps of her bikini halter slide off her 
shoulder seductively. "I'm wearing clothes," she said with a pout. 

"Yeah? Well, I've seen topless waitresses better dressed than you," Will 
announced. "Now go and get dressed!" He gave her a swift swat on her rounded 
bottom, and Gerta squealed again, then hurried off upstairs. 

She came down a few minutes later, in another mini-mini, and another wide 
open blouse. "Better?" she asked. 

"Not much," Will said. He went over to her and began to button her blouse. 
Gerta moved closer to him, grinding her hot little cunt up against him, and 
Will felt a stirring inside his shorts again, and admitted to himself that 
Gerta had excited him once more. Here we go again, he thought to himself. 
Then for the hundredth time that day he reminded himself that this was a 
child... "A child, Tracy, for God's sake. Someone still in kindergarten, 
practically." And then, again for the hundredth time, he asked himself, 
"What the hell are you, man? Some kind of pervert?" 

The thought disgusted him, and with a brutal shove he pushed Gerta away from 
him. "Come on," he said. "Dinner time." Without another word, he turned and 
led her to the car. 

On the drive to his and Nora's favorite Chinese restaurant - The Pearl Lake 
- and why the hell did he have to choose that place? - he ignored Gerta, 
ignored her scintillating smile, her incessant chatter, even her sly little 
body brushes. Once there, he brusquely ordered her out of the car and into 
the restaurant; suddenly the thought flashed across his mind that everyone 
in the place, Lee Chun, who ran it, and every waiter and busboy and 
dishwasher, even, would be talking about his turning up with this young 
blonde. 

Well, it was too late to turn back. Will guided Gerta into the restaurant 
ahead of him, stopping to introduce her pointedly to Lee as "our au pair 
girl from Denmark," to explain Nora's absence, and to assure Lee that the 
three of them would be in, together, the following week. 

Will ate his dinner in silence, aware that everyone was looking at him, 
although Gerta chattered on and on. He was aware, too, that he was drinking 
too much. A couple of martinis to begin with, a bottle of wine, which he 
grudgingly shared with Gerta, and a brandy to finish things off. He felt a 
little unsteady when he called for the check, a little elated when, outside, 
the fresh air blew across his sunburned face. He'd get Gerta home, have 
another drink here himself, then turn in. And maybe Nora would be back the 
next morning. He might even put in a call to her, he thought. Yes, he 
definitely would. 

Nora was still on his mind when he and Gerta reached the house. He unlocked 
the door, followed Gerta into the hall, then went into the living room, 
hoping the girl would go upstairs. He'd just poured himself another brandy 
when he heard her, purring like a kitten beside him, her sweet warm breath 
on his neck sending little shivers of excitement crawling through him. "Me, 
too?" she asked. Will shook his head. "No!" 

"Yes!" 

"No!" Gerta crossed the room, found another snifter, and brazenly poured a 
drink for herself. She held the glass cupped in her two hands, peering over 
the rim of it, wide-eyed as a small child with a glass of milk. "What are 
you thinking, Will?" she asked. He set his own glass down on the coffee 
table and leaned forward, staring still again at the long slim legs, the 
ripely firm thighs, the hard little nipples standing up and peering through 
her loosely-woven blouse. 

"Yes?" Gerta raised her eyebrows, still peering at the older man over the 
glass. "Tell me," she teased. 

Will shook his head. 

"Please." The voice was husky, seductive. 

Will picked up his drink and drained it. He set the glass on the coffee 
table again, then moistened a finger and ran it around the rim. The glass 
whined, sending shivers up his spine. Still, Gerta looked at him over the 
rim of her own glass, a mocking, amused gleam lighting her face. "Please?" 
The voice was as sultry as before. 

Suddenly Will was on his feet. In two steps he crossed the room and snatched 
the glass from Gerta's slim, small hand, throwing it against the fireplace. 
It shattered, splattering drops of brandy across the mantelpiece, to dribble 
down to the floor. Brutally, he clutched her young shoulder with his strong 
hand, his nails clawing into her soft white flesh. As easily as if she were 
a cotton mop, he pulled her to her feet, holding her at arm's length. 

"What are you thinking, Will?" she whispered, smiling mockingly. 

"You know damn well what I'm thinking, you teasing little bitch," Will 
snarled through heavily clenched teeth. 

Gerta laughed again, lowering her sparkling green eyes to stare at the 
obvious bulge in the front of his pants. Will could feel his face turn 
scarlet, and for a moment, he hated the snide little bitch, still laughing 
at him, still leading him on. Christ, he thought, I've got to have her. And 
then Gerta pressed her full lips to his, her tongue flicking out in a long 
wet kiss. Her hand inched down his trousers, found his rigid cock beneath 
them, stroked it sensuously, lewdly. With a quick gesture, she unzipped his 
fly, inserting her hand into the opening to take the thick, fleshy member in 
her hand, trailing a long fingernail across the sensitive underside of it 
until Will gasped. 

"Shall we?" she whispered. 

"Oh, my God! What is it you want?" 

"You," Gerta said. "Do you want me?" 

"God, yes!" For the last time the vileness of what he was about to do, the 
sheer and utter depravity of it, flashed across Will's mind. He gritted his 
teeth. God, if anyone had done something like this to his young daughter, 
Ellen, he would have killed him. Well, maybe someone would kill him, but 
Jesus, it would be worth it. 

He began to unbutton the filmy blouse, tearing at the fabric in his lust and 
passion. His hand slipped beneath it, cupping the snowy mound of her round 
white breast, squeezing it, massaging it, teasing and coaxing the small 
buttons of the nipples until they stiffened into alert, alive buds. He bent 
his head and his tongue lashed out, to lave the erectly quivering mound, and 
then he fastened his teeth on it, as Gerta let out a stifled scream of 
mingled pain and pleasure. 

With a quick gesture, he flung his head back, pushing Gerta away from him as 
he did so. "Not here," he said, his voice harsh and hoarse with uncontrolled 
lust. 

"Where?" Gerta cooed, wriggling her hips provocatively, darting her moist 
red tongue out at Will in a lewd, insolent gesture. 

"Upstairs!" Will hissed. Gerta turned and scampered across the room, the 
rounded moons of her buttocks swaying under the tight, short skirt. Will, 
following close behind, caught her at the top of the steps, pulled her back 
towards him, grinding his aching, raging penis into the crevice between her 
firm young ass cheeks. "Oh, God!" he moaned. "I can't wait. Come on!" 

"Where?" Gerta asked again, almost breathlessly by this time as a wild 
excitement flowed through her body. 

Will grasped her by the wrist and pulled her to the bedroom he and Nora 
shared. "Here," he gasped, "here!" 

He closed the door behind them, and by the shard of moonlight that pierced 
the darkness, bathing the room in an eerie, yellow-toned light, he led her 
to the king-sized bed against the wall on the other side. Gerta licked her 
soft lips, parting them in anticipation as Will lunged at her blouse again, 
stripped it from her tingling young body, and flung it to the floor. His 
hands cupped her breasts, kneading their soft, resilient flesh brutally 
until Gerta whimpered with pain. 

"What's the matter?" Will sneered. "You've been asking for this ever since 
you turned up here, you little bitch. And now, by God, I'm going to give it 
to you!" 

"Give me what?" Gerta demanded, barely breathing the words. 

"I'm going to screw you silly," Will hissed. He ran his hands down over the 
soft, sensuous flesh of her quivering belly, touching her ripe, full thighs. 
His two hands slipped under the elastic band at the waist of her flimsy 
white little panties, and with a quick jerk, peeled them down, caressing the 
soft, smooth cheeks of her buttocks as he did. 

Gerta stepped out of the soft little pile of her nylon panties at her feet, 
and moved back, so that the pale moonlight washed across her voluptuous 
young body. Will sucked in his breath. Christ, even at Fourteen, she was 
really already something! Nora had been beautiful, too, when he had first 
known her this way - and God damn it, she still was - but Gerta, as he'd 
thought when he first saw her, was a young goddess, a Venus de Milo with 
arms. Her soft smooth skin was like alabaster, made whiter by contrast with 
the tangle of silken hair that crowned her exquisite little pussy mound. Her 
limbs were finely chiseled, as if by some master craftsman, one who had 
outdone himself as h sculpted them, then gone on to even greater perfection 
in shaping her lovely shoulders, her thighs, her hips. With all the 
perfection of marble, she was still flesh and blood, and now her firm, 
rounded little breasts rose in thrilled anticipation. This little 
prick-tease wants to get fucked! She really does. As much as I want to fuck 
her, Will groaned hotly to himself.. 

He pushed the girl slightly, and she fell backwards onto the bed, her legs 
shooting out in an obscene spread open position as she did so, exposing the 
moist, tight slit of her pulsing pink young pussy to his fascinated eyes. 
While he-hesitated, standing beside her, the girl seductively raised her 
hands to him - their very touch made his blood race, his cock stand up, as 
hard, as rigid, as an iron bar - and pulled him down beside her. 

She mussed his hair with cool, sensuous fingers, murmuring something low in 
her throat as Will quickly, clumsily shed his clothes. Oh, God, this is 
going to be a hot little fuck, he thought. 

Gerta, her sensuous curved body stretched out on the bed, thought exactly 
the same thing. Oh, this is going to be good. She gasped in stunned 
admiration as Will pulled his shorts down, as she saw the enormity of the 
long, thick cock that extended from his loins. It was so big! SO BIG! Bigger 
than any she'd ever seen. Why, her hand would barely go around it, she 
thought, and now she was going to take it all inside her, take the whole 
huge rigid rod in her tight little cuntal passage, suck it in deeper and 
deeper until it brushed against her cervix, speared into her trembling belly 
and sent her into searing spasms of ecstasy. Oh, it was going to be so good 
- doing this for the first time with a real man, and not with one of the 
boys like those she'd always done it with before. She let out a low moan and 
then began to murmur, "So good... so good... so good... " in a sing-song 
voice, bending her head to whisper in Will's ear, then catching his lobe 
between her even little white teeth, nibbling on it in much the same way as 
a small child nibbles on a cookie. She stopped just long enough to ask, 
"Like it?" before she took a swift, sharp bite. 

"Like it? God, I love it," Will moaned. He'd never seen anything like Gerta, 
never dreamed a Fourteen year old kid like this could be so hot. 

"You'll like this a lot more then," Gerta murmured, guiding his head down 
the length of her taut, tingling body to the softly curling little pelt 
topping her pubic mound. Squirming slightly, she opened her thighs wider, 
and eased Will's head between them, until the pink, hair-lined slit of her 
almost baby-like little cunt was only a few inches from his lips. Will tried 
to swallow, but his mouth was dry with his lust and passion, and he found it 
hard to breathe. He groaned, and placed his two hands on the moistly 
throbbing edges of her cunt, parting them like the soft coral petals of some 
exotic new jungle flower. Mewling with pleasure at this new intimacy, this 
new assault upon her maddened, quivering flesh, the young blonde drew Will's 
face forward further, then began to rotate her hips slowly and sensually 
around on the mattress, as his tongue flicked out, snake-like, and whipped 
its way into her hot, pulsating little vagina. 

Little gasps of ecstasy escaped from deep in her throat, and she pushed her 
cunt forward, pressing it against Will's face, while her little ass cheeks 
bounced in a jerking spasm against the bed. Her gasps turned into a low, 
guttural moan as his tongue slipped from the velvety sheath of her vaginal 
walls to trace the long, thin line of the wet pulsing slit, licking 
teasingly the full length of it, and settling at last on the tight little 
bud of her clitoris. Back and forth his tongue went, in a mad flicking that 
coaxed the tender little button into a ruby hardness, moved again the length 
of her full fleshy lips, then on to the narrow furrow between her smooth 
young buttocks. 

"Ooooooooo! Oooooooooo, Willllll!" Gerta purred, responding to the shivering 
excitement shooting through her teased, tantalized body. She tangled her 
hands tightly in his hair, pulling him closer to her. raising her crotch to 
him so that his face was buried deeper between her thighs. She began to 
groan out something new, words that seemed somehow familiar, yet which Will 
could not fully understand because of her passion. Then, his mind went back 
to the movie he had seen with his wife and the girl in it who had looked so 
much like Gerta. He vaguely remembered that she had said the same thing, and 
it dawned on him that Gerta, like the girl in the movie, was begging him to 
fuck her. 

He lifted his head from the clasping little opening of her vagina, pulling 
his tongue back from the moist, velvety channel. "Say it," he ordered 
brusquely. "Say it to me, Gerta " 

"Oh, God! What do you want me to say?" she mumbled, her teeth clenched 
tightly together. 

"You know, you little bitch." 

"No I don't. Really, I don't!" she panted heavier now. 

"The hell you don't," he snarled. "Say it. Say it good and loud, and say it 
in English." 

Gerta pulled his head back up her body, crushing it against the snowy globes 
of her breasts. He was lying on top of her now, her legs open, and she drew 
a deep breath, hesitated a moment, and then, with a sudden, wild freedom she 
began to repeat, "Oh, Will... Fuck me... Fuck me... FUCK Me!" 

Her slim white hand slid the length of his torso and closed around his 
rigid, aching cock. Her fingernails scratched lightly on the sensitive 
underside, and then she began to massage the fleshy shaft gently until he 
too groaned with tortured delight. She stopped long enough to cup his tender 
silky balls in her cool, soft hands, then stroked again his thick, heavy 
cock. At last she guided it to the expectant throbbing little mouth between 
her widespread legs, parting her soft golden pubic hair with the bloated 
head of the fleshy instrument, easing it between her hotly quivering cuntal 
lips. 

She gasped as the long, rigid penis slid between the moist, narrow walls of 
her vaginal passage, then sank in deeper and deeper, probing up into the 
very depths of her warm, soft belly. Then, suddenly, she seized Will's hand, 
guided his fingers beneath her to the narrow valley between the cheeks of 
her smoothly rounded bottom, and towards the tiny little hole hidden there. 
My God! Was she asking... ? 

Gerta answered the unspoken question, whimpering. "Yes... oh, yes, Will. 
Please! Slip your finger up in it!" 

An electric shock of excitement thrilled through Will's body at the vile 
request, couched in such innocence. He reached under her, searching for the 
tiny, gently flexing hole, and found it at last, moistened already from the 
trickle of dampness seeping from her hot, wet cunt. He probed at it, then 
with a sudden swift movement wormed his finger in deep as the tight, 
elastic-like ring of flesh seemed to pop wide, opening to suck his finger in 
to the first knuckle. 

Gerta let out a little scream, a whinny of pain that faded off into a sigh 
of contentment as Will's finger slid in all the way to the palm of his hand, 
while his huge iron-stiff prick fucked in and out, in and out of her 
drenched and throbbing little pussy. She began to writhe lustfully beneath 
this double ravishment of her loins, mewling ecstatically as Will's swollen 
cock invaded her moist, clasping cunt, as his finger fucked into the depths 
of her tightly clenching rectal passage. With wanton delight she chanted, 
"Fuck me, fuck me, fuck me," and Will quickened his strokes, drove deeper 
and deeper into her quivering little belly, shooting crashing waves of 
searing, indescribable joy through her whole, nerve-tingling, 
desire-drenched body. 

Again, Will quickened his strokes, slaving above her, arching back, drawing 
his thick cock almost out of her hungrily sucking vagina, spearing in again 
until his heavy, sperm-bloated balls slapped heavily down against the 
widespread moons of her ass cheeks. As he thrust again, grinding hard and 
deep, he felt a sudden spurt of wet sticky fluid that flooded out from the 
tightly clinging walls of her hotly throbbing little passage, and then her 
obscene chant of "Fuck me, fuck me, fuck me," turned into a long, low wail. 
"Ooooooh! I'm cumming . . I'm cumming . oh, my God! I'M CUMMING!" 

Will felt the hot, white sperm in his bloated balls begin to boil and churn 
unbearably, building to a maddening explosive pressure, then shoot the full 
length of his aching, bulging prick, to squirt deep into the flooded, hot 
recesses of the young, Fourteen year old blonde's desperately contracting 
little vagina. His testicles jerked wildly between his legs, emptying out 
the last of his sperm to mingle there with her own hot juices flowing warmly 
gently down her pulsing inner thighs, as the girl's legs dropped lifelessly 
to the sides, to lie limp and open on the bed. Will eased his now deflated 
penis from the narrow cum-drenched channel of her cunt, and rolled over 
beside her, all passion spent. Good God! He'd never known anything like 
this. Well, he thought, he'd fucked the hot-cunted little bitch, and he'd 
fucked her good. He'd given her just what she'd been asking for. 

And she'd given him just what he wanted, too. 

Maybe more, he thought, with a sudden frightening shock, maybe more than 
he'd bargained for. 

CHAPTER FIVE 

The sun was shining brightly when Will awoke, filtering through the edges of 
the lacy curtains to cast a subtle, bright pattern on the pale ivory walls. 
It gave him a feeling of well-being, of content, which enhanced his own 
mood. But a cloud seemed to pass across the sun, and the curtains cast a 
long shadow, now, and he felt the stirrings of some vague premonition of 
disaster within him. 

He reached his hand out, grasping at the empty air. Then it occurred to him 
that he was alone. Where was Nora? He shook his head, clearing the cobwebs 
from it. Of course! She'd gone to care for her sister. What the hell was he 
thinking about Nora for, anyway? 

And Gerta? 

He remembered the way she'd looked the night before, lying nakedly beneath 
him, her legs widespread to expose the entire plane of her upturned crotch 
to him, as she'd taken his own huge, blood-engorged prick into her tight, 
clasping little cunt, remembered the mind-blowing excitement as he'd plunged 
into the warm, moist cavern, the indescribable ecstasy as he'd spewed his 
churning, boiling sperm into her hungrily milking young belly. Christ, he 
thought, she'd been fantastic. The thought of the young girl made his prick 
jerk, coming again. He wished to God she were still here, lying on the 
sperm-drenched sheets beneath him. 

He pushed himself up on his elbow and looked around. From the mirror on 
Nora's dressing table, a man stared at him, a man with slack, paunchy jowls 
and reddened, bloodshot eyes. Christ, he thought! Looks like old Dorian Gray 
himself - and then, with a chuckle, he corrected himself: looks like the 
Picture of Dorian Gray! Well, picture or person, Will Tracy was looking 
pretty decadent this morning, pretty debauched. And where in the hell was 
Gerta, he asked himself again. 

This time, a stab of remorse went through him, a sense of revulsion at what 
he'd done. Morally, he thought, it was indefensible -screwing a kid like 
that the way he had, even if she had been begging for it. And legally? Will 
shuddered. Gerta is Fourteen, he reminded himself. Okay, Fourteen and a 
half, Fourteen and three quarters. Fourteen and 99 per cent of another year. 
Whatever she is, she's under sixteen. She's not a consenting adult. And 
legally, Will Tracy, he said, leveling an accusatory, if imaginary, finger 
at himself you're guilty of statutory rape. 

He uttered a low moan, shocked by the realization. What if the little bitch 
took it into her head to tell someone about last night? What then, Will 
Tracy? He shook his head. There wasn't a single soul out here for her to 
tell -there wasn't a single soul out here that she knew, except for him. 
Okay. So far, so good. But she'll meet people, sometime, somewhere. Suppose 
she tells, then? Will shook his head again. No, he thought, she wouldn't. 
She wasn't the type. At least she wasn't the type to tell just for the sake 
of telling. If she could get something out of it. though... oh, my God! What 
if she blackmailed him? In a flash, he saw his life in ruins - his business 
gone, his marriage destroyed, his family disgraced. His thoughts centered on 
Nora first, winged momentarily off to their son, Todd, away at college, then 
were occupied with their daughter, Ellen. With a sudden fury, he pounded a 
clenched fist on the bed. If some lecherous old bastard like himself had 
fucked Ellen the way he'd fucked that Danish girl, he would have killed him. 

With a surge of bitterness, he thought of Ellen's husband, knew that he 
resented him, "wonderful kid that he is," he muttered to himself 
sardonically, grew furious at the idea of the little bastard's making love 
to his daughter, knew he was being ridiculous - wasn't he a broad-minded 
human being, who accepted sex as one of the great pleasures of man and 
enjoyed it in just that way? And wasn't she a grown woman, now - a married 
woman, too - and not a child like Gerta? 

"Oh, the hell with it," he suddenly said aloud. He was too confused with the 
events of the past night to try to work his way through the maze of fuddled 
thought that cluttered his mind. Leave that to the shrinks, he told himself 
wryly, to the wigpickers. Or else you'll be needing one, too. He shook his 
head again. He had more important things to think about, now. First of all, 
where was Gerta? What was she doing? 

He rolled off the bed, clutched for his tangled clothing strewn about the 
room, and hurriedly pulled on shorts and trousers. Bare-chested, he padded 
into the bathroom. After he'd brushed his teeth - God, they seemed to be 
wearing little angora sweaters - and shaved carefully, he patted his face to 
a healthy glow with a cold, stinging lotion. He combed his hair then, found 
a clean white shirt in the closet, put it on, chose a favorite tie and 
knotted it, then slipped into a sports jacket. He caught a glimpse of 
himself in the mirror as he left the room. Well, he at least looked 
respectable. And now he'd better find Gerta. 

She might have gone back to her room, he reflected. Or she might have run 
away - God, she wouldn't, she couldn't go to the police - or, for all he 
knew, her dead body might be floating in the swimming pool. He'd seen 
something like that, he remembered, in a movie on the Late Late Show. He 
took a deep breath. There was no sense in procrastinating any longer; he had 
to find out what had happened to Gerta. 

He found her in the kitchen, dressed in a bright little sunsuit that clung 
like wet silk to her curves, or at least to those it covered. She was 
sitting at the table, a plate of hot, buttered toast in front of her, busily 
spreading it with strawberry jam. "Hi," she said, looking up as Will came 
in. She broke off a large piece of toast, slathered more butter and jam on 
it, then popped it in her mouth. "I'm hungry," she said, speaking with her 
mouth full. "Are you?" 

Will shook his head. He'd never felt less like eating in his life. "No," he 
said, "I'm not hungry." 

Gerta smiled, popped another piece of toast into her mouth, then hopped up 
from the table. "I've made orange juice," she said. "And the coffee's hot." 

"Thanks, Gerta. I just don't feel like eating anything." 

Gerta's eyes widened. "Why not?" 

"I just don't feel like it." 

She looked hurt, now, and suddenly wistful. 

"Is it because of me?" she asked, pouting slightly. 

"No." Will cleared his throat, trying to think of what to say to her. He had 
to say something, for God's sake, after last night. He stared at the wall, 
as if the appropriate words might be written there. When he didn't see them, 
he cudgeled his brain, searching for them there. Finally, lamely, he 
announced, "I want to talk to you, Gerta." 

"Oh? What about?" 

"Goddamn it," he"said, suddenly shouting. "I don't know." 

"But if you don't know, then why did you say... " Will took a deep breath, 
letting it out slowly. "Look, Gerta," he said at last, "I, well, about last 
night... I'm sorry." 

Gerta stared at him wide-eyed again. "You didn't like it, Will?" she asked, 
shaking her head in bewilderment. 

"That's not the point," Will snapped. What the hell was the matter with this 
kid - all wide-eyed innocence, now, acting as if butter wouldn't melt in her 
mouth - and last night, acting like some cheap little tart, some slut, some 
whore. 

A tear glistened in the young girl's eye, and Will was immediately sorry. 
"Look" he said quietly. "It was wonderful. You know that. But we just can't 
go on like that. We've just got to forget all about last night." He thought 
of warning her not to mention it to anyone, then decided that that would be 
tempting the fates, and said nothing about it. He gave her a grin. "Okay?" 

"Yes, I guess so. Okay." Gerta said. Then, with a deep sigh she added, "I 
don't understand." 

That was certainly true, Will thought. She didn't understand at all. So he 
would have to take the responsibility from now on, make sure he didn't drink 
too much around the kid, and lose control again. In fact, he'd better stay 
away from her as much as possible, work late at the office maybe. And not 
hang around alone with her. Well, he'd take her out to dinner again tonight. 
It hadn't helped much the night before, he thought ruefully. Still, it would 
be better than being alone in the house with her for a long time. God, the 
little bitch, in that cute little kiddie outfit she was wearing, was already 
sending shivers of raw, animal lust shooting straight for his aching loins. 
He'd better get out and get out fast. 

"Look, kid," he said, gulping the orange juice, "I've got to get to the 
office." He glanced at his watch. "Matter of fact," he added, "I'm late 
now." 

Gerta watched as he, now standing, finished his coffee, then started for the 
door. " 'Bye," he called. 

In an instant she was beside him. "But Will," she said, lips quivering like 
those of a heart-broken child, "what shall I do today?" 

"Just what you did yesterday," Will answered. "Get yourself a sunbath, out 
there by the pool." 

Gerta, still disappointed, turned away. Then said, "Will you telephone me, 
so I don't get too lonesome?" 

Telephone her! That was all he needed! He shook his head. "No. I'll be too 
busy." Another thought flashed through his mind. What if Nora called, what 
if this kid somehow - oh, not intentionally, of course, but somehow, let 
slip something about what had happened? Or maybe one of the neighbors would 
call and Gerta, lonely, wanting to talk, just to talk to someone, for God's 
sake, might spill the whole sordid, sickening story. What would he do then? 
Well, he decided, an ounce of prevention... "Look, Gerta, I'm not going to 
call you. And you wouldn't know anyone else who might call. So maybe it's 
better if you just don't answer the phone, if it should ring. Okay?" 

The girl looked puzzled, but Will had no intention of giving further 
explanations. "Just don't answer the phone, kid. Understand?" Her 
expression, which Will caught in a backward glance over his shoulder as he 
slammed the door behind him, told him clearly that she didn't. 

At his office, he found his desk piled high with work he'd been neglecting 
for days. That was good; it would keep his mind off all his troubles. He 
plunged into it with a vengeance, reading fine print, totaling figures, 
concentrating on everything at hand. By the time he slammed the desk drawer, 
at five o'clock, and drove home, he was almost calm. 

But his excitement returned, as he steered the small car in and out of 
traffic. He couldn't get the memory of the little bitch - my God, he told 
himself, she must be a nympho or something - out of his mind. Closing his 
eyes against the glare of the sun as he waited for a stoplight, he seemed to 
see her superb white body, offered up to him, as it had been the night 
before, practically on a silver platter. His balls began to ache again, his 
prick to throb, while white-hot flames seemed to lick at his loins. When he 
reached the house, he cut the motor and sat in the car for a few seconds, 
trying to regain his composure. He wouldn't give in, he told himself. Not 
this time. Other men had been faced with this situation, other men had 
resisted the blandishments of some cheap little whore, and he could, too. It 
wasn't going to be easy - no, it wasn't. But lots of things weren't easy, 
and he managed to make out somehow. Hell, that wasn't the word he'd meant! 
He took a deep breath. He wasn't going to give in to this, he told himself. 
By God, he wasn't! 

He called the young Danish girl in from the swimming pool, being careful not 
to look at her as she passed him, half nude again, her voluptuously rounded 
little buttocks bouncing and jiggling invitingly. He went into the kitchen 
and mixed himself a drink - he would have just one he told himself. No use 
playing with fire - but Gerta took an extraordinarily long time in changing 
her clothes, and so he had a second. God, one more little drink - just one 
more - wasn't going to turn him into a rapist, was it? 

When Gerta at last appeared, he tried to look the other way, averting his 
eyes as he shooed her out to the car. The drive to the restaurant, he 
thought with relief, wasn't nearly so bad as it might have been. She was 
obviously famished, and kept her mind on dinner and her hands where they 
belonged. 

This time, Will drove to The Green Parrot, where the food - Italian - was 
more than passable, and where he was certain no one would know him. He'd 
forgotten, though, that the lights there were so dim it was hard to read the 
menu, and when the waiter insisted on seating the two of them side by side 
on the banquette, he was afraid to make a fool of himself by protesting. 

As they worked their way through a platter of antipasto, the veal scallopine 
with spaghetti, the buiscuit tortoni, he felt Gerta slide close to him, 
brushing his thighs with her own slim ones. He moved as far from her as 
possible, pleased that he could show so much restraint. But he needed a 
drink to keep from going out of his mind, and managed to convince himself 
that a bottle of Lacrima Christ, so smooth, so sweet, would have a 
beneficial effect. He wouldn't drink much, he promised himself; he'd share 
it with Gerta, giving her at least half. 

But Gerta merely toyed with her glass, and when the bottle was empty, Will 
realized that he had drunk it all by himself and that it was making his head 
spin. He'd counted on driving Gerta around the brights lit streets of the 
town for awhile - he would have been safe with her, then - but now he didn't 
feel like it. 

He paid the bill and got into the car, ungallantly letting Gerta open her 
own door and slip inside. He kept his eyes on the road, not daring to look 
at her, as he headed back to the house. But her presence was maddening, and 
Will had the awful knowledge that he could not resist her any more tonight 
than he had the night before. 

When they reached home, he again slid out and let Gerta fend for herself, 
slamming the door angrily, trotting behind him up the garden path. He pulled 
his key out, and with shaking hands inserted it in the lock. The fire in his 
loins was raging now, beyond any control, and as the girl followed him into 
the front hall, he slammed the door behind them, then pulled her brutally 
towards him. She lifted her face to his, and his lips crushed against her 
soft, moist mouth, then his tongue, with cruel pressure forced it open, 
forced its way in, almost to her throat. After a long, wet kiss that lit 
white hot fires in his seething, surging balls, his aching penis, he pushed 
her away, then caught her hand and pulled her after him up the stairs in the 
darkness. 

He fumbled for the light switch at the top of the stairs, but couldn't find 
it, swore softly, then led the girl to his and Nora's bedroom again. He 
fumbled again for the light switch, then forgot it, deciding that mere 
moonlight would be more erotic, and moved, Gerta in hand, across the room to 
the bed. He was already stripping off her filmy little summer dress, 
unhooking her bra, easing the thin nylon wisp of her panties down over her 
round, firm thighs. When she stood before him, all her clothes in a little 
heap on the floor, he stared at her, as he'd been longing to do all day. 
Then, as he'd also been longing to do all day, he eased her backwards onto 
the bed. 

For what seemed to her the hundredth time, Nora Tracy picked up the 
telephone and dialed her home number. And for what seemed the hundredth 
time, there was no answer, only the incessant, almost eerie ringing. 

But there had to be someone there. There just had to be. Even if Will was at 
work, Gerta should have been there. Anyway, Will should have been home by 
now. And if he wasn't home, where was he? 

And why? 

Because she wasn't there, Nora told herself. Because she'd dashed off to 
take care of her sister, Gracie, just when Will needed her most with the new 
girl coming and all. She brushed a tear from her eye, and choked back a sob. 
Well, what else could she have done! Gracie had been critically injured. 
Will couldn't have expected her to stay home at a time like that. 

Still, her husband had needed her, too. And she had failed him. And now, she 
didn't even know where he was. Nora broke into muffled sobs, dabbing at her 
eyes with a now-wet handkerchief, knotting it, stuffing it against her 
mouth. The nurse, coming in with a shot of pain-killing morphine for Gracie, 
found Nora curled up in a chair sobbing hysterically, the picture of 
despair. 

"Oh, dear, Mrs. Tracy!" she said soothingly. "Whatever is the matter?" 

Nora shook her head. "Everything," she said. "Just everything." 

"Oh, dear, now. Things can't be all that bad, now, can they?" 

"Yes, they can," Nora insisted. 

"Well, suppose you tell me about it," the nurse said, setting down the small 
tray she carried, the wad of cotton, the towel. "Maybe it will make you feel 
better." 

"It won't," Nora said, bursting forth into fresh tears. Nevertheless, she 
blurted out her story; her husband wasn't home and didn't seem to have been 
home, she said. At least, she couldn't reach him. "And what could have 
happened to him, Miss... Miss... " she hesitated, then found the nurse's 
name on her lapel. "Miss Taber?" 

"Why, he's probably gone to a movie, dear." 

"We've only been to one movie in a whole year, he doesn't like them!" 

"There, there, dear," Miss Taber clucked. "Everything's all right with your 
husband. I just know it is." Nora shook her head, refusing to believe it, as 
Miss Taber rattled on. "You just see everything in a bad light now because 
you're so tired, poor thing. You've been under a strain, Mrs. Tracy. That's 
all. And when you get some rest, everything will look different to you." 

"No, it won't," Nora sniffled. "I know something's wrong. Something has to 
be. Will doesn't answer the telephone, and he has to be home - he just has 
to be - because he wouldn't have gone anywhere, at a time like this, and if 
he's home and he doesn't answer the telephone, that means that something 
terrible has happened to him." Nora let out a little wail of fear at what it 
might be. "Oh, there's been an accident," she sobbed. "Will's been hurt. 
WILL'S DEAD!" 

"Now, now," Miss Taber admonished. "You're just upset by all that's 
happened. And do you know what I'm going to do?" When Nora looked at her in 
silence she said, "Well, Via going to get you some little pills that are 
going to make you relax, and once you relax, you'll be able to get some 
sleep - you haven't had much sleep, dear, you know, sitting up all night 
with your sister, the way you ha\e - and I really think it's been wonderful 
of you to do it, too - but you haven't had much sleep, you know." 

Nora sighed. "I know," she said. "But I don't want any of your little 
pills." Her voice began to rise in shrill hysteria. 

"That's all right, dear," Miss Taber said, clapping her on the shoulder. 
"You just sit right here, and I'll go and get them." She picked up her tray 
and went out, shaking her finger at Nora. 

Nora heard her footsteps receding down the hall; when they had died away she 
slipped from her chair, found her coat and purse, said a gentle "good-bye" 
to the sleeping form of her sister, and hurried to the elevator. Once 
downstairs, she ran through the marble-floored hallways, the tap of her high 
heels seeming to chase her, adding to her panic. She was breathless when she 
reached the parking lot, trembling as she slid behind the wheel of her car. 
Her forehead was damp and wet, and she felt a little faint. She rested it 
for a few seconds on the steering wheel - it felt cool and comforting - 
before she started the car. Then, summoning all the strength at her command, 
she headed towards the road that led to home. 

It would take hours for her to reach it, and when she did, it would be late 
at night. She pressed her foot on the accelerator. Dear God, what would she 
find when she got there? 

The road stretched ahead, a thin, twisting ribbon of darkness, lit briefly 
by the twin headlights of the car. Trees and patches of brush loomed on 
either side. Occasionally, Nora passed an isolated farmhouse, a roadside 
stand, a rural schoolhouse. Sometimes she sped through tiny villages, 
stopping at the crossroads to peer in both directions before continuing. She 
went through towns, too, where a few late gadabouts scurried home through 
neon-lighted streets. 

She stopped once for coffee, begrudging the few minutes it took to drink it. 
Then she was back in the car, careening along, watching the road. The fallen 
logs, the piles of leaves, the small, smouldering rubbish heaps - all seemed 
to turn into the body of Will, a body twisted and scarred and broken. Had he 
had an accident? Had he, like Gracie, crashed his car into a retaining wall, 
been thrown around inside the hurtling mass of metal to be crushed like an 
eggshell? Had there been, perhaps, an accident at the swimming pool, with 
Will, trying a highdive hitting his head on the tiled edge? Perhaps he'd 
been the victim of an attack of some sort - been mugged on the street, been 
beaten, even killed by some intruder in their home. Something - something 
had happened to Will. 

She glanced out the window, and saw the sign that marked the approach to 
Piedmont Hills. Nearing home, her fears lightened, her terror drifted away. 
Everything would be all right, she thought, blinking as if she had just seen 
daylight after days in a dark tunnel. She took a deep breath and felt the 
piston-like pounding of her heart begin to subside. Everything would be all 
right. She would turn the comer and drive down the street and there would be 
her home - hers and Will's - with lights blazing cheerfully, the certain 
proof that all was well. 

She reached the crossroads and slowed the car. A smile of relief spread 
across her face. Everything was going to be all right, she thought, as she 
headed the car onto Maiden Lane. She drove half the block, straining her 
eyes as she watched for Number 52. 

She pulled up in front of it, and everything was dark! 

CHAPTER SIX 

Nora sat for a few moments, paralyzed with fear, as she stared at the hulk 
of the house, dark and dismal as midnight itself. Nothing stirred within; 
outside, only the occasional swaying of the treetops gave any semblance of 
life. 

Oh, dear God! What had happened? Will was dead, had been for hours, was 
lying there in a pool of his own blood. A little wail of terror slashed 
through the night, cutting the silence like a knife through the water. Nora 
heard it, and it sent new waves of panic slamming through her trembling 
body. Nora heard it - but only as it died out did she recognize it as her 
own cry, her own voice. 

She tried to move, as she knew she must eventually. She would have to face 
this horror somehow, have to go into the house sometime. But how could she 
bear to? Oh, no! She buried her face in her hands and an intense shudder 
racked her body. When it had passed, she felt an emptiness within her. It 
was like a limb which had been amputated - which wasn't there - yet which 
went on throbbing forever. It seemed strange that nothing could hurt so much 
more than something, but the aching void at the center of her had become 
unbearable. 

She shook her head, which seemed to whirl about her shoulders, turning the 
darkened house before her into some weird spinning object, some giant's 
plaything, like an enormous turning yo-yo. And when darkness - an even 
greater darkness - folded her within it, Nora, almost as lifeless as she 
imagined Will to be, let her head slip back against the seat, resting it 
there, motionless, for a long time. 

Occasionally, a frightening image pierced the dark blank of her brain - that 
of Will, again, dead in an easy chair, the victim of a heart attack; Will, 
lying on the kitchen floor, a butcher knife stuck between his shoulders. 
Once she even thought of Gerta - wasn't she supposed to have come on 
Thursday? What had happened to her? Oh, dear God! She must be "dead, too. 
Worst of all, though, was the haunting fear that the house was empty, both 
Gerta and Will gone - God alone knew where. 

She tried desperately to collect herself, to pull herself together, to make 
some decision, to do something. The idea came to her of going to a 
neighbor's to call for help. But she knew her shaking fingers could never 
perform even those inconsequential movements necessary to start the car 
again, and as for walking, her legs, weak now as cooked spaghetti, would 
barely carry her as far as the house, let alone to one nearby. No, there was 
nothing to do but gather what was left of her strength, and by a sheer 
effort of will to enter the bleak, deserted-seeming house. 

She stretched out her hand to the door handle, and was amazed that she had 
the strength to turn it. That done, she realized she could propel herself 
from beneath the steering wheel, and step to the ground. There, though, she 
tottered again, leaning against the chassis of the car for support, propping 
herself against the hood for awhile. Again her strength came back, again she 
resolved to find Will, or at least to find out what had happened to him. 

She breathed deeply in the cool night air, glanced up gratefully to see that 
the moon was still high, was still a ball of shining yellow. If the lights 
were out - and surely any would-be attacker, any murderer would have but the 
wires at once - yes, and the telephone wires, too - she would at least have 
both the light and the comfort of the moon above. She shivered a little, 
wrapped her coat closer to her, then started up the narrow flag-stone path 
that led to the house. She stumbled along, blindly, and once she lost her 
balance, swayed, nearly fell and caught the branch of a rose-bush just in 
time to save herself, and the thorns pierced the palm of her hand and made 
her jerk back. A few steps farther on, she caught the heel of her alligator 
pump in a crack, twisting her ankle slightly. She righted herself, then 
stopped to wipe her forehead on the sleeve of her coat. And then Nora went 
on. 

She reached the steps and climbed them, stood, frozen with fear, in the cold 
moonlight before she had the courage to insert the key in the lock, froze 
again before she could turn it. But at last the door swung open, and Nora 
stepped inside. 

She leaned against the door jamb, weak with apprehension, listening for some 
telltale sound to confirm her fears. But there was nothing, and with a sigh 
of relief, so loud it startled her, she went inside and carefully, quietly, 
pulled the door closed behind her. 

Nora fumbled for the light switch, but her nervous, twisting fingers merely 
passed across it, and then she remembered that if there had been intruders, 
the lights would surely have been cut, anyway, and so she moved away, 
groping towards the staircase. She found the first step, and feeling her 
way, moved cautiously up the flight. Half way to the top, she twisted her 
ankle again, and standing there, she dropped off first one high-heeled shoe 
and then the other. And now, in her stocking feet, she padded to the upper 
landing. 

Nora paused a minute there, peering into the darkness stretching up and down 
the hall. That way was the guest room, Ellen's old room, as well as Todd's 
pad. Surely Will wouldn't be there. Nora turned, and moved slowly, quietly 
down the hall in the other direction. 

There was a dim light - from the moon, Nora was certain - creeping out from 
under the door to the bedroom she and Will shared, and she was irresistibly 
drawn to it. At the door she paused, hand on the knob, then drew back, 
listening to her wildly pounding heart. Dared she enter? What would she find 
within? 

She thought she heard a sound, listened, decided it was her heart again. But 
it came once more, a low moan at first, then louder, a groan, a quiet 
shriek. She heard the sound of bedclothes rustling, of bodies - could it be? 
- thrashing about. Oh, dear God! What was going on? Almost as soon as she 
asked herself the question, she knew the answer. Will was in there, 
desperately ill. He'd been poisoned - that was it. Or else he'd been 
wounded. In any case, he was dying. 

Nora herself felt slightly sick, and her head began to reel; nevertheless, 
she steeled herself for the horrible sight she knew would face her, steadied 
her shaking hand, turned the knob and pushed the door open a crack. 

She peered into the room, trying to make out Will's body by moonlight. When 
her eyes became accustomed to the semi-darkness, she gasped. Dear God! He 
was lying there on the bed, his naked body twisted in some grotesque 
position. She clapped her hand over her mouth, to keep from screaming, still 
staring in shocked horror at the bed. It seemed to her that John moved - 
then he wasn't dead, after all - and then the room brightened as the moon 
came from behind a cloud and its bright beams picked out the body of a 
young, voluptuous girl there on the bed with Will, played like spilling 
fountains over her lewdly tilted breasts, lit the hard rosy little buttons 
of her nipples, splashed its pale white light over the sensuous curves of 
her firm white buttocks. 

Oh, my God! What were they doing! Oh, I know, Nora thought. I know damned 
well. Little fingers of ice began to walk up her spine, sending freezing 
shudders through her. Yes, she knew what they were doing, knew, too, that it 
would have been better if they'd been dead. 

And who was the girl? In a flash, Nora knew that, too. It was Gerta! That's 
who it was! Oh, she hadn't had to meet the little bitch to figure that one 
out. No, indeed. It was as plain as the nose on her face that this wanton, 
lewd creature who mewled with pleasure as she lay beneath Will was the 
little au pair they had brought all the way from Denmark. All the way from 
Denmark to walk into Nora's own home, brazen as anything, to climb, within 
hours, into her own husband's bed, and to... to . A sob rose in her throat 
at the very idea of what the two were doing. To fuck, she managed to tell 
herself at last, cringing at the word. That was what they were doing. They 
were fucking. And Nora stood frozen to the spot, watching, as Will stroked 
the firmly swelling mounds of Gerta's naked breasts, running his fingers 
delicately over the snowy white skin, as he trailed his hand lightly over 
the swell of her moonlit belly to tangle it in the soft little patch of 
softly curling pubic hair at the base, as he lifted her satin-smooth 
buttocks, the twin cheeks quivering, to cup them and crush them in his two 
huge hands. Oh, God! If only she could stop them, put an end to this 
horrible adulterous scene unfolding before her very eyes! But how? HOW? 

Gerta writhed and twisted on the bed, suddenly flinging her head back, 
whispering something - something obscene, Nora thought bitterly - into 
Will's ear. He twisted, too, moving down until he was kneeling on all fours 
between her widespread young legs. Now what? Nora moaned. Oh, God, now what? 
Warmly cascading tears flooded her eyes and coursed down her pale cheeks. 
Angrily she brushed them away. Now what! As if she had to ask! Oh, God, it 
was unbearable, watching Will do this to a girl who was nothing more than a 
husband stealing little whore. A whore.' The idea filled the older woman 
with fury, and she longed to leap to the bed and scratch the little bitch's 
eyes out, to claw her to bits, to tear her limb from limb. 

She turned away, glanced back to stare in amazement at her husband's swollen 
penis - it was so huge, she thought: she hadn't remembered it was so huge - 
jerking obscenely now as it jutted out from his loins like a spear at full 
tilt, to see the young naked girl in a convulsive movement suddenly spread 
her slim legs even wider to expose the warmly trembling lips of her open 
vagina and the little patch of sparse silky pubic hair nestled around it 
more lewdly to her eagerly peering husband's eyes. She covered her face with 
her hands, choking back her sobs, then peeped through her own spread fingers 
at Will's lust contorted face gazing spellbound at the narrow, hair-lined 
slit of the girl's pinkly inviting little pussy. She saw him reach forward 
and place his hands on the insides of her warm, milk-white thighs, spreading 
them even farther apart, saw his fingers, his thumbs move to the coral lips 
of her cunt - saw even that it was moist now with passion - saw him draw the 
petal-like flesh wide apart and then, slowly, coolly, deliberately, tease 
the little bud within it, the small pearl of her rose-pink clitoris, 
tantalize it into a stiff pulsating little erection. 

Nora turned away as Will continued to stroke, to fondle the girl's miniature 
phallus. A wave of disgust swept through her, making her knees buckle, her 
heart pound relentlessly. She leaned against the door again, her head 
lolling to one side. She felt a moment of panic as the thought flashed 
through her tormented brain that Will or the nakedly spread young girl might 
see her standing there watching this lewd, obscene spectacle. Feeling panic, 
she tried to close the door as if, somehow, by wiping the scene from her 
sight, she could put an end to the depraved act taking place within the 
room. But her hands hung limp at her side, refusing to do her bidding; her 
feet were rooted to the spot on which she stood, and she knew she could no 
longer move away. 

She pushed the door open a crack further, and peered in again. Now Will's 
fingers were teasing again into the curls of soft golden hair of the girl's 
openly spread pubic mound, now they moved once more to the warm, moist slit 
of her eagerly trembling little vagina. He probed it gently with the tip of 
one finger, then began to work it into the tightly clenching little orifice, 
twisting and turning it hotly within the narrow passage. Gerta first writhed 
and squirmed hesitantly under his working hand, and then, responded with 
moans of wild, abandoned passion to the moving finger now fucking deep into 
her tight little cuntal passage. 

The moaning ceased as Will withdrew his finger from her warmly clasping 
young pussy to search out and caress the tiny bud of her clitoris again, 
then burrowed once more, deep inside the young, erotically twisting girl's 
warm, pink pussy, beginning to move slowly, rhythmically while she squirmed 
lewdly about in an insane contrapuntal rhythm of her own. A warm, excitedly 
rising fluid seeped wetly now from her pulsing depths under Will's feverish 
finger fucking, drenching her throbbing little cuntal opening and flowing 
down her warm, sensuous thighs. 

Then Will's voice shattered the oppressive silence, ringing clear and cold 
as crystal. "I'm going to fuck you, kid," he said, and the words fell on his 
wife's ears like a cutting knife, slashing and wounding her to the center of 
her being. "I'm going to fuck you like you've never been fucked before." 

Gerta let out a little peal of malevolent laughter. "Not even like I was - 
how you say it? - fucked last night?" 

"Not even like you were fucked last night," Will said, his voice low and 
husky, and almost brutal. "Not even like that!" 

He arched back, groaning, taking his blood-engorged penis in his hands, 
guiding it to the gaping opening of the young girl's hotly palpitating 
vagina, maneuvering to ease it between her hungrily clasping cuntal lips. 

With a sudden movement, Gerta pushed him downward, then quickly reached out 
to grasp his head between her two cool, slim hands. "Not like last night," 
she whispered, her voice sultry. "Not like that! Like this!" 

Nora uttered a small, silent cry of shame and shock as the girl tangled her 
fingers in her husband's hair, slipping, swiveling beneath him, pulling his 
head down, down between her obscenely spread thighs, towards her passion 
drenched young pussy lips that waited expectantly for him below. With an 
anguished cry, like that of an angry bull Nora thought, her husband thrust 
his face forward, and his warm, moist tongue shot out like a striking 
serpent, making electrical contact with the stark, upright bud of the girl's 
clitoris. 

She thrashed and bucked under the delightful torment of his hotly flicking 
tongue, thrusting the full flat plane of her widespread loins up to meet his 
wetly licking assault upon her tender flesh. The sight seemed to send a 
blast of Arctic wind rippling up the spine of the watching Nora, raising 
goose flesh on her neck and arms. Oh, God! Had Will no decency - no decency 
whatsoever! 

Other men, she knew, indulged in such forbidden, perverted pleasures. But 
Will! Her own husband, Will! She remembered her thoughts of what now seemed 
centuries before and yet of what she knew had been only a few days. "Will 
was the most considerate of men." And now he was doing this this - to the 
little slut, the little whore, the little bitch - who had appeared on their 
doorstep. With soul-searing anguish, Nora watched the man she loved as he 
plundered the newly-ripened body of this young, shameless intruder into 
their home. 

The pink, glistening little hole of the blonde's soft, curl-fringed pussy 
was now completely exposed to Nora's gaze and she heard, in spite of all her 
efforts not to, Will's low, appreciative grunt as his tongue darted forth, 
lizard-like, to slip deep up inside the wetly throbbing little mouth. 
Another shock went through her wildly trembling body as the little au pair 
responded with a lewd, delicious pleasure to the maddening sensation 
imparted by the older man's licking, spiraling tongue. With a compulsive 
jerk, her legs splayed out obscenely, to hang out over the edges of the bed 
in limp, abject surrender to the ravishment of her loins. 

Now Will ran his tongue up and down the moist, narrow furrow, probed, 
explored, entered, withdrew, while the girl quivered sensuously beneath him, 
grinding her buttocks deep down into the mattress on which she lay. Once 
again, he began the maddening licking of her cuntal lips, slithering his 
tongue lizard-like in and out of her passion drenched Fourteen year old 
pussy. 

My God! Nora thought. The girl - the girl is - she's insatiable! She's 
letting him do everything - everything - to her. And she's asking for more, 
too, she thought, choking back still another sob as Will licked at the soft 
folds of throbbing flesh between Gerta's outspread legs, withdrew to push 
her knees up against her heaving breasts, so that he could lick at the 
narrow crevice between the firm white mounds of her nakedly upturned little 
buttocks. 

"What next?" Nora moaned in despair, certain that no man - and certainly not 
Will - could ever be capable of committing further indecencies. And yet she 
knew the worst was yet to come, and she gritted her teeth, bracing against 
it --- whatever it was. 

There was a low groan of passion from her heavily breathing husband, and an 
answering one, long drawn out, ear-splitting, from Gerta, and then her 
voice, panting breathlessly, "I want to do it to you too, Will. Please! I 
want to lick you too!" 

He reared back again, and Nora saw his lust-distorted face full in the light 
of the yellow moon. "What is it, Gerta?" he asked. "What is it you want?" 
and Nora thought, Dear God! That's the way he talked to Ellen - to baby 
Ellen! He listened attentively, as if her voice would come from some 
immeasurable distance, for her answer. 

It was a little whimper of sheer sensuality, though, when it came at last, 
and Nora struggled to take in the full enormity of the girl's wickedness as 
she made out the whispered words. "I want to suck you, Will. I want to take 
your big lovely cock in my mouth, and I want to nibble it and eat it and 
suck it." She drew in her breath, then let it out, long and audibly. "Would 
you like that, Will?" she asked him in a low, seductive voice. "Would you?" 

Nora herself held her breath, waiting for Will's reply. He couldn't - he 
wouldn't - let her do such an outrageous thing. And then his words came to 
her, stinging like a slap across the face. "Oh, God!" he groaned as he 
rolled over on his back. "You think I wouldn't! Come on, baby. Come on! I 
want to slip it in to you, to ram it against the back of your throat, to 
tickle your tonsils. Oh, my God! Would I do it, Gerta! WOULD I!" 

Nora was dimly aware then that Gerta was turning on the bed, rolling over, 
twisting, sliding down somehow to straddle Will's naked body, to poise 
herself upside down above him, head flung back, ash-blonde hair streaming 
like that of some wild, wood-bred creature, the heavily swollen mounds of 
her breasts bobbing above the head of his hugely throbbing penis. She was 
aware, too, that Gerta took the desire-hardened length between her hands, 
ran them slowly, seductively along the length of it while Will moaned again, 
that she crooned out words Nora couldn't understand. Then she saw the elfin 
face drop forward, the little pink tongue slip between the white even teeth, 
lick the hungrily ovaled lips lasciviously, then quickly circle the flushed 
tip of the excitedly waiting cock. Her head bobbed downward now as she fully 
enclosed the granite-hard member in the warm, wet confines of her mouth, 
licking up the tiny pearling drops of fluid that hotly oozed from it. Then 
again, her moist little tongue shot out,- tantalizing and teasing warmly at 
the blood-engorged head; and when the older man moaned beneath the 
tormenting sensation, she once more parted her warm, moist lips, to suck his 
turgid, seething cock back deep up inside. 

Will began to fuck in and out between her widely ovaled lips, thrusting up 
deep, withdrawing, thrusting in again, while the young girl continued to 
croon out in a muffled sing-song voice that bubbled up from somewhere deep 
inside her. He stiffened perceptibly as he looked down between them and 
caught sight of her sweet, innocent child's face, contorted wildly now with 
the lust of a wanton, lascivious creature. She moved her tightly locked lips 
up and down along the wet shaft of his heavily hardened cock, and then her 
hands slid beneath him, to gently cup his churning, sperm-filled balls to 
massage them tenderly, sending little feather-like spasms of ecstasy through 
him that excited him even further. 

Nora, watching at the door, was afraid she might faint. She wondered, 
vaguely, if this was the man she had known for so many years, the man whose 
life she had shared. There seemed to be an unbridgeable gulf between the two 
of them now, a gulf growing ever wider. And as Gerta began to suck harder on 
his huge burgeoning cock, as little grunts of delight escaped his trembling 
lips, she saw him flex his body, raise his loins tighter to her face, then 
sink back against the small hands she slipped beneath him while she cupped 
his ass cheeks in her tightly clutching little palms. She had a moment of 
consternation as her husband's enormously erect prick almost disappeared all 
the way up into the small widely ovaled mouth - my God! the child would 
choke! Nora thought, and then, maliciously, hoped she would - but at once 
dismissed the idea, knowing full well that Gerta had obviously long been 
accustomed to such depraved acts. And now, as the girl continued to suck 
frantically and Will wound his hands in her hair, she knew that his balls 
probably ached now beyond endurance, that the pressure that had built up in 
the sperm-filled sacs could no longer be contained, and that he was going to 
cum - to shoot his hot, heavily churning semen into the girl's desperately 
working throat. 

Nora rocked back on her heels, timing herself to the lewd rhythm of Gerta's 
obscene sucking, Will's equally obscene thrusting, and then, with an anguish 
that struck her soul numb, she heard his wild cry: "Aaaaaagh! I'm cumming... 
Oh, my God! I'm cumming... " saw his inflated balls smack hard up against 
the girl's tiny, pointed chin, saw him heave and buck in his final climax as 
the hot white sperm shot through his shaft to spew forth in long, hotly 
jetting streams between the girl's widely ovaled lips. 

Gerta swirled the white hot liquid in her mouth, then swallowed rapidly, 
still sucking, as if she must extract each final drip from his rapidly 
deflating penis. 

It was only then that Nora let out the scream of a wounded animal and then, 
as if to lick her wounds, turned and fled. 

CHAPTER SEVEN 

Nora had no idea how she found her way through the darkened house and into 
the cool air of the outdoors. She only knew that it was a relief after the 
horror of what she had experienced - the shock of seeing her own husband 
performing vile, lewd - and yes, perverted - acts with the young Danish au 
pair girl. A gentle wind blew across her face, and she wandered out across 
the lawn to the swimming pool. She sat on the edge of it for awhile, trying 
to force her mind to go blank. But it was no use; the sight of her own 
husband thrashing and bucking in his climax, as he spurted his seminal 
juices deep into that young girl's throat seemed graven indelibly on her 
tortured brain; the sound of his animal-like groaning assaulted her ears 
continually. 

She felt, indeed, like a wounded animal, and a sharp stab of pain seemed to 
split her being, as a bolt of thunder splits the mighty oak in two. There 
were times, sitting there on the cold, impersonal tiles, when she wondered 
whether her life was still worth living, when she decided it wasn't, and 
when she vowed to throw herself into the murky waters of the pool in front 
of her. Yet the last vestige of her inner strength restrained her. She had 
been hurt and humiliated, God knows, she had already bore more than any one 
woman should have to bear in a lifetime. Yet the final humiliation of death 
at her own hand, the ignominy of suicide would have been the final disgrace. 
No, she would live. 

But how? Where? 

Certainly not in this house. 

Nora looked at the huge dark hulk of it, looming behind her, shuddering at 
the thought of her husband and the young blonde, their bodies still entwined 
in some lewd clasp of copulation, on the bed in the upstairs room. She would 
have to go somewhere. The faint blush of pink stretched across the eastern 
sky told her she would have to go soon. She rose to her feet, and began to 
circle the pool, cudgeling her brain, trying desperately to sort things out. 

She grew a trifle cold, and hugged her thin cotton dress around her, and 
when she still shivered, she took refuge from the nipping wind in the 
shelter of the patio. She paced back and forth there, listening to her dull, 
plodding footsteps that seemed, incredibly, to come from far away. With a 
start, she realized she was in her stocking feet, and then she remembered 
that she had kicked her shoes off when she entered the house in such haste, 
remembered, with a bitter, mocking laugh, that she had thought Will dead. 
"And Gerta too," she told herself, with a wry grin. 

She thought of creeping into the silent structure, climbing the stairs to 
gather up her high-heeled pumps. She might even rummage around there for 
some of her own clothes. But her clothes were in that chamber of horrors, 
that evil enclave where life as she had known it had been destroyed. No, she 
decided, she would never return to the scene of her husband's lewd, blatant 
infidelity. 

If not, then what could she do? 

She sat down heavily on a wicker chair, forcing herself to face some sort of 
reality. Well, first things first, she decided. And the first thing to do 
was to get away from here. So far, so good, she told herself, with a little 
tinge of pride at her inscrutable logic. Second thing? To decide how. She 
felt in her pocket and found the key to the car, as well as to the house, 
although she had no recollection of dropping them there. Fine! She would 
drive off into the night. As to where she would go, well, there would be 
time to decide that once she'd started. With a glance over her shoulder, she 
saw the moon still high - she had been mistaken about the promise of dawn - 
and made her final decision. She would go now. 

She picked her way across the lawn, caught her stocking on a rosebush, heard 
the sound of tearing nylon, felt the eerie tickle of a stocking popping, 
heard herself say "Damn" and then began to laugh hysterically at her concern 
over a run in her stocking when she had so much else to worry about. She was 
still laughing uncontrollably when she reached the car and opened the door. 

Once inside, and in front of the steering wheel, she sternly admonished 
herself to stop such silliness. "Now is no time for nonsense," she said 
aloud, and then, nonsensically, began to repeat the words, turning them into 
a little tuneless song. The words floated on the air, and then Nora, with a 
sudden change of feeling, became serious again. She was in the car, now, she 
told herself. She must go somewhere. Where that would be was still 
impossible to decide. Nevertheless, with a determined sense of purpose, she 
started the car, drove forward a few yards, turned into a driveway, backed 
out and headed away from the house - "forever" she told herself. 

At the corner, Nora stopped, wondering which way to go, shrugged 
indifferently and then spun the wheel to the right. When she found herself 
in the center of town, she speeded up the little car; no sense in being seen 
around here, at this time of night - or was it morning? Yet who would see 
her? The streets were deserted, the shops and offices dark and shuttered. 
Still, there was always the off-chance that someone would recognize her car, 
wonder about her. It was best to drive through as quickly as possible, 
ducking her head, too. 

Beyond the town, and on the highway, a terrible feeling of drowsiness began 
to overcome her. It occurred to her that she'd gone without sleep for hours, 
days perhaps. And the terrible events of those days - Grace's accident, the 
shocking scene of Will and their new au pair girl locked in a lewd, naked 
embrace that still seared her mind - weighed her down with unbearable 
fatigue. In spite of herself, she began to nod; she managed to keep her eyes 
open only by the greatest effort. She would have to get some sleep; that was 
all there was to it. 

She thought of pulling off to the side of the road, but decided against it. 
What if she were discovered there? The thought came to her, then, of a 
motel, on the outskirts of the next town; she headed the car in that 
direction. 

As Nora approached the Midway Motel, she saw that their sign was lit, and 
that under it was the twinkling red neon which read "Vacancy." She breathed 
a sigh of relief. What if the place had been full? 

But as she turned the car into the parking lot, her eyes swept over the 
others there, vaguely noting the license plates. All seemed to be from this 
county, or the neighboring one, and Nora realized, with a little shudder of 
revulsion, that few, if any, travelers slept behind the closed shutters, 
beyond the double-locked doors. Guests at the Midway Motel, she understood, 
were the straying businessmen of the local communities, out for a night on 
the town, catering to their carnal instincts, indulging in - the hell with 
it, Nora told herself, relishing the obscene word - fucking. The place was 
filled with a lot of dirty old men, screwing their secretaries. Just the way 
Will had been screwing the au pair. Well, she certainly wasn't going to stay 
here! 

With a screech of tires, a revving of the motor that she hoped would throw 
the fear of God into all the wicked creatures thrashing about beneath the 
heaving bucking bodies of equally evil creatures, Nora backed the car out 
and turned it down the highway again. She drove through the next town, which 
was small, and where she was afraid she was known, and on to the largest one 
in the valley, where she was less likely to be recognized. She stopped the 
car in front of the Randolph Hotel first, with its dignified, imposing 
facade that might have been stodgy but proved, beyond the shadow of a doubt, 
that the place was respectable. She sat in the car for a full five minutes, 
peering at the gray stones, the arched windows, the heavy oaken door. She'd 
come here several times with some of the friends she played bridge with 
every week. They'd only gone into the dining room, but still, they'd had to 
walk through the ornate gilt lobby to get there. And might not some bellboy, 
some elevator operator lounging outside his empty car recognize her, even 
come over to say, with a bewildered expression, "Good evening, Mrs. Tracy." 
No, Nora thought, she couldn't risk this place. 

Then where, she asked herself, could she go? 

She thought of another hotel in town, less plush, but just as respectable, 
and decided against that, too. And then it occurred to her that there was 
still a third place, down near the railroad tracks, a grimy, almost 
ramshackle structure, with a couple of soiled leather chairs, seats split, 
springs sagging, for the few down-at-the heels traveling salesmen, the 
vendors of cheap knicknacks who sometimes stayed there. Nora shuddered a 
little at the thought of spending the rest of the night there herself - what 
if there were fleas? or bedbugs? and yet she knew that she had to go 
somewhere, had to rest for a few hours. Her nerves were crackling, her body 
aching with fatigue. She had no other choice. 

She drove through the narrow, rubbish-choked streets of the town's poorer 
quarters, found the hotel without difficulty, and parked her car in the lot 
behind the building. She noted with satisfaction that there were few others 
there. Anyway, she assured herself, no one she knew would be coming here; no 
one would recognize her car. 

She stepped from the car and closed the door softly, furtively, feeling 
guilty, and a little afraid. She must look a sight, she told herself, 
clothes crumpled, probably grass-stained, too. And she had no luggage! What 
if she were refused a room, what if the desk clerk became suspicious, seeing 
her like this, and called the police? What would she do then? 

She was on the verge of tears again - she couldn't go on, she just couldn't 
- oh, dear God! why hadn't she thrown herself in the swimming pool as she'd 
wanted to? - and then she remembered that in some hotels you could just pay 
in advance, if you had no luggage. That way, no one questioned you, and when 
she glanced again at the squalid place she'd chosen, she was sure it would 
be all right. If only... she checked her wallet. Yes, it would be all right. 
She had plenty of money to pay for a room, and money to buy a couple of 
drinks, too, or even a bottle of whisky to take to her room. Certainly they 
would have a bottle of whisky here, and she most certainly could use it. 

She turned back to lock the car, and caught sight of her small overnight 
case wedged under the seat. How on earth had it gotten there? She couldn't 
remember putting it in the car, but, on the other hand, she couldn't 
remember that she'd ever taken it out, when she'd gone to Grace's. Well, it 
didn't matter. It was there and it would certainly make things easier for 
her. 

She opened the door, picked up the case, slammed the door and locked it. 
Then she went into the hotel. It was shabbier than it seemed from the 
outside, with walls caked with dirt, the floors seemingly unswept, the 
curtains tattered. But there was no other place for Nora to go - and anyway, 
she thought, I don't look so hot myself. She threw her shoulders back and 
smoothed her dress, and padded across the floor in her stocking feet - why 
hadn't she opened the overnight case? Maybe she had another pair of shoes in 
there. In any case, she told herself, beginning to giggle, it was too late 
to do anything about that. Better brazen the whole thing out. 

At the desk, she put down her suitcase and cleared her throat to attract the 
attention of the young man slumped behind it. He gave a start and looked up, 
blinking at her behind his horn-rimmed glasses like a daytime owl, then 
shoved a registration form at her. Nora thought for a moment before signing 
it, then wrote, in a large, clear handwriting, "Mrs. J. Alfred Prufrock, 
Oxford, Ohio," hoping there was an Oxford, Ohio, hoping that the man 
wouldn't ask to see any credit cards, any driver's license. She felt a 
little giddy when he said, "I hope you'll like your room, Mrs. Prufrock," 
confident enough to say, "I wonder if I might get a drink around here. Oh, I 
know your bar is closed... " she looked around, and saw, as she suspected, 
that there wasn't any, "but perhaps I could get a bottle." 

"Sure can, Mrs. Prufrock," the clerk said. Just then he glanced down and 
noticed that she was shoeless. 

Nora giggled. "My feet hurt so, you know. New shoes. You know what it's 
like. Blisters on my heels," she wheeled around, pointing towards her 
ankles. "Please excuse me." She opened her handbag, took out her wallet, 
withdrew a twenty dollar bill. "Blisters sometimes get infected, you know," 
she said. She felt the nervous tension rising within her again, knew that 
she would soon break .down once more in hysterical giggles, knew that she 
had to - had to - get away - get upstairs, calm herself with quantities of 
Scotch if, hopefully, that was what the hotel would provide. The desk clerk 
disappeared; when he came back he had a bottle of Scotch - thank God, Nora 
breathed -j in his hands. He handed it to her, as she gave him the money. He 
started to look for change, but Nora wiggled her head magnanimously at him, 
said, just as magnanimously, "Keep the change," and picked up the bottle in 
one hand, the overnight case in the other, and headed for the elevator. "I 
can find my way," she called back. "Don't worry about me." 

"Oh, that's okay, Mrs. Prufrock," the clerk called after her. "You just get 
a good rest. And thanks," he said, waving the bill in his hands. "Thanks 
very much." 

Nora found the room without too much trouble, opened the door and went in. 
It was pretty awful, she told herself. But it could have been worse. She put 
her case down and went into the bathroom. That was pretty bad, too. Still, 
there were fresh towels, a cake of soap, and when she turned the water 
faucet, plenty of hot water. 

She found her toothbrush and brushed her teeth, passed a washcloth over her 
face, and then, without the energy to search through her small bag for her 
nightgown stripped to the skin and crawled between the sheets. 

The bottle of Scotch stood on the night table beside the bed; Nora reached 
for it, twisted the top off, and poured a couple of fingers - hell, she 
thought, that's a whole hand - into the tumbler she'd brought from the 
bathroom. She drank it quickly - it felt so good, so warm, so loving going 
down, poured herself another, then began to sip at it more slowly. 

She leaned back against the pillow, not bothering to turn off the bedside 
light. The whisky made her perspire - it must be at least a hundred in here, 
she thought - and so she pulled the top sheet back and lay on the bed, 
reviewing everything that had happened in the past few hours. 

She saw the whole sordid scene again - was it the hundredth time she had 
watched it in her mind? - that lewd, lascivious fucking of the young Danish 
girl, with Will sprawled on top of her, sucking her insanely - or even worse 
Gerta's widely ovaled mouth as she sucked him. She gulped down the rest of 
the drink and poured herself another. Her head began to swim, which didn't 
seem strange, since it had been making a habit of doing that, but this time, 
Nora felt a queer sensation in her body, too, a warm, blissful tingle that 
spread, featherlike, throughout her, descended on little cat feet to her 
vagina below. As she saw again, in her mind's eye, and with unabated horror, 
the whole obscene picture she had witnessed such a short time before, as she 
saw her own husband, her own dear, devoted Will ease his blood-gorged penis 
into the hungry, widely ovaled mouth of the young au pair girl, a twitch of 
excitement rippled through her own body. She felt drops of sticky fluid 
oozing from her own softly pulsating pussy, filtering through the gold silk 
of her pubic hair to tickle down between her thighs. A warm throbbing ache 
sent small waves of pleasure darting through her blood. They made the tiny 
bud of her clitoris tingle, and Nora, without realizing it, touched it, 
tentatively at first, and then began to stroke it deliberately. 

At the desk, the night clerk scratched hi head. "Well," he said to himself, 
"I've seen some real kooks in my time - some real weirdos -but boy, this one 
sure takes the cake." H scratched his head again, muttering "Blisters on my 
heels! No shoes, for God's sake, and she say she's got blisters on her 
heels." He pulled at his ear, wondering where she'd come from, what she was 
doing here. "Not bad looking," was the next thought that crossed his mind, 
and then it occurred to him that she had been well-dressed - except, of 
course, that her clothes were as mussed as if she'd been sleeping in them. 
"Probably has," he told himself. But where? The thought began to gnaw at 
him, like an aching tooth, an exposed nerve. God damn, it wasn't any of his 
business, was it? He looked at the register that Nora had signed. "Mrs. J. 
Alfred Prufrock," he read. Now what the hell kind of a name was that? And 
how the hell did she think it up? Something pretty strange was going on 
here. Maybe he ought to go up and investigate a little, find out what was 
going on. Wasn't that what he was here for? Not just to hold down the desk, 
take care of the formalities, but to make sure that nothing happened in the 
hotel, either. Jesus, he'd better go up right away! No mistake about that! 

On tip-toe he climbed the stairs, crept down the hall to Nora's - "Mrs. 
Prufrock's" - room. Dropping to his knees before the locked door, he put his 
eye to the keyhole. 

Nora went on, almost mindlessly at first, stroking the small, tingling bud 
of her tiny pink clitoris. Suddenly, in a moment of anguish and guilt, it 
came over her what just what - she was doing. Hot, scalding tears sprang to 
her eyes, and she moaned, "Oh, dear God! What's the matter with me? I'm just 
as wicked as they are!" She muffled her sobs in the pillow, blubbering "I'm 
evil and vile and filthy. Oh, dear God, I'm even worse than they are." Yet 
she was no more able to stop herself than she had been able to walk away 
from the bedroom where all this... this... awfulness... had taken place. 
"I'm evil and vile," she told herself again, but the dull, tantalizing ache 
of her pussy maddened her, and she went on and on, stroking and teasing her 
tiny, sensuously pulsating clitoris into a steel-like hardness. Electrifying 
bolts of pleasure seemed to shoot through her at her own magic touch, and 
she felt herself quivering like a violin string turned too high. 

Watching through the keyhole, the desk clerk dropped his slack jaw wide in 
amazement. Jesus! He'd been right. Something sure was going on here. His 
squinting eye took in the magnificence of the woman's nudely reclining body, 
spread out across the bed like a patient on an operating table. Those tits 
of hers were sure something, he told himself, milk-white mounds, big and 
firm and bouncing now against her chest. And that lusciously curved ass of 
hers, too! Boy, it would be great to get his hands on its satin-smooth 
cheeks, dig his fingers into the soft, pink flesh, knead them and squeeze 
them and cup them in his own huge hands. He'd like to run his fingers up and 
down her hot little cunt too, maybe even play with her asshole, maybe... ! 
His limp penis^ seemed to come to life at the obscene thought, to jerk into 
a hard, twitching rod inside his pants. Jeez, he thought, running his tongue 
over his thick, slobbering lips, she's getting me all excited. 

On the bed, Nora moaned quietly as her fingers moved of their own accord 
against the tiny throbbing tip of her clitoris. Her blood raced now, pulsed 
with a pleasure new to her. And, her mind added, irresistible, and her other 
hand roamed across the nakedly sensitive flesh of her thighs, up, up, up, 
tracing the gentle, curving landscape of her belly, to reach the full, firm 
roundness of her breasts, to come to rest at last on one taut, blood-red 
nipple. Totally lost, enfolded in a cloak of pure sensual delight, she let 
her legs go slack, and they parted slightly so that the man at the keyhole 
saw, with lewd pleasure, the thin golden triangle of pubic fleece between 
them, the milk-white, sensuous skin of her inner thighs. Christ, he thought, 
drawing in his breath with a low, lewd whistling sound, this bitch was 
something. Better than he'd ever seen before, at least in a flea-bag like 
this! 

Something startled him - was someone coming? - and he jumped up, glancing 
anxiously over his shoulder. But there was no one there, and he sank to his 
knees once more, once more fastened an eye to the small aperture in the 
door. 

Nora started too at the sharp, sudden sound. Oh, my God! Was someone there? 
Was someone watching her fingering herself - wicked, vile, vicious Nora 
Tracy? The words flashed through her tortured brain, yet she knew, somehow, 
that she didn't care. Let them watch! She was lost, thoroughly lost, as evil 
as any or all the others, and since that was so, nothing more mattered than 
extracting every ounce of pleasure from her tense, aching body. 

Her legs splayed farther apart, so that now the pink, fleshy lips of her 
openly throbbing cunt were clearly visible to the desk clerk, the narrow, 
hair-lined slit laid out before him like some sensuous, sexually blossoming 
flower. Then Nora parted the pink, wetly glistening edges there, and an 
exploratory finger wormed slowly into her moist, throbbing cuntal passage, 
as her pleasure mounted to an almost unbearable ecstasy. She slipped another 
finger into the hotly burning cavern, then a third, and the moist, tender 
flesh up between her legs closed greedily around them, sucking and 
swallowing them eagerly up inside, while at the keyhole the desk clerk at 
his vigil froze with vicarious pleasure at the depraved exhibition presented 
to him through his tiny window. 

A shudder of ecstasy wracked Nora's lust-incited body, and then she felt a 
sudden gush of warm, moist liquid flooding from deep inside the narrow 
sheath of her vagina, seeping forth over her lewdly impaling fingers. She 
groaned heavily and, grinding her buttocks around crazily on the mattress, 
moved her open cunt lips back and forth on them, back and forth, in and out, 
deeper and deeper. With a sudden, depraved impulse, she tore her hand from 
the button-hard nipple of her breast, plunged a finger into her mouth to 
lick and lubricate it briefly, then trailed it down her sides. She reached 
around under her full ripe buttocks to the narrow valley between the two 
whitely trembling cheeks and found at last the tiny puckered hole of her 
anus. With a little grunt of lewd abandon, she inserted her finger into her 
tightly resisting rectum, withdrew it at the pain, tried again, this time 
burrowing in slowly until the small rubbery ring surrounding it seemed to 
pop open, sucking her finger hungrily up into its spongy depths. 

Almost mad now with the excitement of her vile abuse of her own body, Nora 
rocked back and forth between her deeply embedded fingers as she stimulated 
the sensitive flesh of her vagina and anus with the twinly driving probes of 
her harids. 'Oh, God!" she thought, as her lust-drenched body quivered 
beneath the double assault. "I can't stand it any longer. I CANT! I'M GOING 
TO EXPLODE!" Her wail of shock and wonder split the air: "Aaaaaagh! I'm 
making myself cum! Oh, my God! I'M MAKING MYSELF CUM!" 

She strained her dually absorbing passages hard down against her 
rhythmically fucking fingers and then everything seemed to snap and her back 
arched in a quick lewdly grinding convulsion and the exquisite joy of 
fulfillment crackled through her, sending sparks showering like fireworks 
wildly racing through her blood. They hovered there for a long instant, 
burning with a pleasure so intense, it was almost pain, and then slowly, 
lingeringly, the flame subsided. Nora lay back, drained of all strength as 
her passion ebbed, and a deep contentment settled over her. Later, as she 
came back to reality, a shudder of horror shook her slender body, and sharp, 
heart-rending sobs convulsed her. "Oh, God!" she moaned, "What have I done? 
What... WHAT?" She shook her head and rubbed her cheek with the back of her 
hand, brushing away a scalding tear. And why, she asked herself. And WHY? 

She could find no answer, and at last, weary to the point of complete 
exhaustion, she turned over and fell asleep while outside the peeping night 
clerk struggled to his feet, a lewd grin on his rat-like face, and hurried 
rapidly down the hall to relieve himself with his already hotly itching 
palm... 

CHAPTER EIGHT 

Nora awoke and looked around at the monotonous print of the peeling paper on 
the walls, the ghastly, torn lampshade in some hideous, dull color, the 
blistered paint of the woodwork. Where was she? And how did she get here? 
She propped herself up on one elbow, peering at the entire depressing 
interior. She noticed the half-empty bottle of Scotch on the 
cigarette-scarred and burned bedside table -where did that come from? - and 
then decided a drink might help her straighten everything out. 

She swung her feet around, off the bed, and onto the floor, and stood there, 
teetering for a minute.-The glass beside the bottle of Scotch looked filthy; 
but there should be another, a clean one, in the bathroom she thought. She 
pattered across the frayed and tattered carpet to it, pushed the door open, 
and caught sight of herself in the mirror. She let out a little gasp of 
horror. 

Her lovely blonde hair hung in limp, stringy strands around her shoulders, 
hunched forward a little now in shame. A pallor had settled over her usually 
glowing, cream-colored skin; beneath her eyes were bags that she thought - 
laughing a little at her own joke - she could pack. 

That reminded her she'd brought her overnight case with her - at least she 
thought she had - and she trotted back into the bedroom to fetch it. 
Rummaging through it, she found creams and lotions and make-up, and it 
comforted her. Bad as things were - and Nora knew they were very, very bad - 
she could at least make herself presentable. That would raise her morale and 
help her to face the things-that must be done. More important, it would help 
her to face what she had already done to herself with her own wickedly 
moving fingers. 

The thought of her lewd, abandoned exploits of the night before, her 
shameless fingering of her own gratefully accepting vagina, sent little 
shudders of disgust through her. She felt dirty, that was it. The insides of 
her thighs were sticky from the fluids of excitement that had been released 
when she reached her climax, but in addition her entire body seemed to her 
soiled, caked with filth. Looking at her drawn, pallid face in the mirror, 
she wondered again what had possessed her, what had driven her to debase 
herself in such a way. Her self-contempt seemed to etch deep, indelible 
lines in her face, and she shuddered again, feeling trapped in this squalid 
room which was part of some nightmare from which she would never awaken, 
never escape. 

She wanted to wash herself, to scrub away the guilt that clung to her, 
although she knew she never could. Still, a bath would at least cleanse her 
symbolically, and so she drew the water into the chipped enamel tub, and 
even found some perfumed bubble bath that she whipped up into a soothing, 
white foam. 

She stepped into the bath and lay back, soaking herself in the luxurious 
warmth. Her spirits began to revive and she found herself able to think more 
clearly. Just as she had planned each step so logically the night before - 
or so it seemed - getting into the car, driving away, finding a place to 
stay - she now plotted a way back. 

There was nothing she could do about what happened - oh, she knew that. She 
knew, too, that she would never forget it. Still, she could brush it aside, 
sweep it under the rug, pretend most of the time it had never happened. It 
would only be in the middle of the night, when she awoke with a sick sense 
of shame that the horror would encircle her trembling body again. 

But this was daylight, Nora told herself, with forced cheerfulness. And now 
was the time to get dressed - fortunately, she even had a clean bra and a 
fresh pair of panties in her little overnight case - paint her mouth a 
brisk, defiant red and go out and face the world. 

She stepped from her bath, drying herself with the threadbare towel provided 
by the Brooks Hotel, and pulled on stockings, panties and her bra. She 
looked around for her shoes, but couldn't find them. That seemed ridiculous. 
Surely she had worn shoes! She pushed the bed away from the wall and looked 
under it, searched through her suitcase - it seemed absurd for her to have 
put them there, but still - and when she couldn't find the shoes, her 
stomach seemed to curl in panic. What had she done with them? Where were 
they? 

She sat down on the edge of the rumpled bed and lit a cigarette, inhaling 
deeply, going through the events of the night before, step-by-step. No, she 
thought. Not all the events. That was far too painful. But she would begin 
with the drive through the night. 

The towns and villages flashed past again, as she had seen them through the 
darkness. She remembered now parking the car, coming into the hotel. 
Shoeless? Why yes, of course. Well, since she'd come in that way, she'd go 
out that way, too. And what name had she given at the desk, given to that 
repulsive little man there, with yellow teeth and shifty eyes that seemed to 
undress her? She wracked her brain, and then it came back to her. She'd 
called herself Mrs. J. Alfred Prufrock. She giggled a little, wondering what 
the "J" was for. Then she stood up. Time, she thought, for Mrs. Prufrock to 
quit the premises. 

But was it? Where would she go? She'd have to buy shoes, of course, that was 
the first step. And she'd have to have something to eat. Good God! When had 
she last had a meal? And then? 

And then she would see a lawyer, she decided. There was no going back to her 
own house, there was no going back to her husband, not after what she had 
seen the night before. The marriage was over, finished, kaput. She wept a 
little at the thought, for herself, her children, even for Will. Then she 
picked up the telephone and gave the desk clerk - it seemed to be a new one 
this time, the day clerk, no doubt - Jake Eggar's number, back in Piedmont 
Hills. 

The clerk seemed to have trouble getting the call through, but Nora had made 
it clear to him she wanted to speak to Jake, and no one else. "Yes," she 
insisted. "It's a personal call. Yes, to Mr. Jake Eggar. No, I don't know 
his business address... " Oh, God! She couldn't even remember the name of 
the law firm he worked with. "No, I don't even know the name of his firm," 
she repeated to the clerk. "But you'll certainly find him listed in the 
Yellow Pages. Under what?" Nora sounded a little incredulous at the 
question. Well, she thought, she couldn't expect everyone to know Jake 
Eggar. "Why, he'll be listed under the heading of 'Attorneys'," she finally 
explained. 

She wondered vaguely if she was doing the right thing, calling Jake and not 
some other lawyer she'd never even met. Wouldn't it make for complications, 
what with Jake's being such a good friend to both her and Will? She shook 
her head. No, it would be all right. And it would make things so much easier 
for her, not only because Jake was just about the best lawyer in the county, 
but because he was so damned nice. Nora would be able to talk to him, spill 
out the whole sordid story to him, since he was a friend, and a sympathetic 
one at that, whereas she was sure she could never bring herself to reveal 
what had happened to a perfect stranger. Jake would be okay, she decided, 
and patting herself on the back a little, she added to herself that for once 
she, Nora Tracy, had done the right thing. 

She heard the telephone ring in Jake's office then, heard the receptionist 
answer with, "Holbrook, Lawson, Eggar and Davies," remembered then the name 
of Jake's firm, and heard the clerk from downstairs asking for Mr. Jake 
Eggar. 

"Who is calling, please?" 

There was a pause as the clerk checked the hotel register. "Uh," he cleared 
his throat. "It's Mrs. Prufrock." 

"Who!" 

"Mrs. J.Alfred Prufrock!" 

There was a pause, and then the receptionist said, "I'm sorry. Mr. Eggar is 
in conference right now." 

She was about to hang up when Nora broke in. "It's Nora Tracy," she said. 
"That's right. Tracy. Mrs. Will Tracy. Please, please let me speak to Mr. 
Eggar. It's, well, it's a matter of life and death. 

The receptionist hesitated, obviously trying to make up her mind as to 
whether or not this was some sort of joke, then with a sigh said, "One 
moment please," while Nora held her breath. But an instant later she said, 
"Mr. Eggar is on the other line. Can you hold?" 

"Yes," Nora said with a sigh of relief. And after what seemed forever, she 
heard Jake Eggar's voice and she began to cry a little bit and she said, 
"Jake, oh, Jake! This is Nora. Nora Tracy. I'm in terrible trouble, Jake... 
" she sobbed audibly, now. "... terrible trouble, and I've got to see you 
right away." 

"My God, Nora!" Jake sounded shocked, but he sounded sympathetic too, Nora 
thought gratefully. "Are you in jail or something?" 

Nora shook her head. "No. No, it's nothing like that. I've just got to see 
you, Jake." 

"Are you home?" 

"No," Nora said. "I'm over in Blainesville. In a hotel. The Brooks Hotel." 

"My God! What the hell are you doing in a dump like that?" And when Nora 
began to cry again, Jake's voice took on a note of concern. "Nora, it's not 
a drug charge or anything like that, is it? You haven't been picked up for 
possession...?" 

"No. NO! Of course not, Jake. There's nothing like that." 

"What is it, then?" 

"Oh, Jake, I can't tell you on the phone. I've got to see you. Please... " 
Her voice trailed off in a little whimper. 

"Okay, Nora." Jake's voice was friendly again, warm, understanding. "Can you 
be at my office at three this afternoon? I'll ask Miss Murphy to cancel all 
other appointments." 

"I'll be there," Nora promised. And she added, in a small, weak voice, 
"Thank you, Jake." 

Will Tracy stretched and yawned and opened his eyes, still rubbing the sleep 
from them. From downstairs he heard Gerta's cheerful little voice, singing a 
simple, child-like tune. Great kid, he thought. Jesus! Where had she learned 
to screw like that! Boy, she seemed to have had plenty of practice! But 
somehow, when they'd fucked the night before, she'd made him feel it was the 
first time for her, made him feel she'd never sucked cock before, that no 
man had ever licked that tight little pink pussy of hers. Well, Will 
thought, other men might have done it before he got around to her, but he'd 
be damned if he'd let any other man do it from now on. God, no! He'd keep 
the kid so busy she wouldn't have time for anyone else. Besides, by the time 
he got through screwing her silly, she wouldn't even want another man. He 
looked at his watch. God damn, if it weren't so late, he'd slip her some 
right now, pull those little nylon panties of her right off her, slide the 
big, bulbous head of his prick right between the hot little curl-fringed 
pussy lips of her cunt, worm and burrow and snake into that tight little 
passage until his cock hit the back of it, and then he would fuck in and out 
while her warm, wet belly juices gushed around his pistoning cock... oh, 
Jesus! 

He turned over, shook himself and passed his hand over his forehead, pushing 
his hair back out of his eyes. God damn! It was great to think about it. And 
even if there wasn't time for it now, there'd be plenty of time tonight. He 
rolled from the bed and moved lightly across the shaggy carpet to the 
bathroom. 

As he soaped himself under the warm spray of the shower, he began to 
whistle, almost unconsciously, the tune Gerta had been singing downstairs. 
God, what a gorgeous little ass she had! He could almost see it now, those 
white, sensuous little half melons that wiggled provocatively. Well, tonight 
he'd see that luscious bottom, that was for sure. And he'd arrange things 
better, too. None of this going out for dinner, like the last two nights, 
wasting all that time when the two of them could have been doing a hell of a 
lot better thing, right here at home. No, tonight he'd get back early, have 
a couple of drinks - yes, and let Gerta have a couple, too - then broil 
steaks out on the patio, maybe. And it wouldn't be long before he'd have the 
little au pair on the coral-colored couch downstairs in the living room, 
have her stripped of whatever sexy little outfit she was wearing... ! God, 
what was she wearing! Well, he would soon find out. 

He dried himself, rubbing the fluffy pink towel briskly across his strong, 
muscular shoulders, his chest, his trim, flat stomach - not for nothing did 
he exercise every day - his flanks, his sinewy thighs. Now he spread his 
legs, and stooping over slightly, began to massage his pubic area, patting 
the dangling little circles of his testicles, his huge, limp cock. Jesus, he 
thought, that little kid had taken the. whole thing into her mouth last 
night, right up to the hilt. He patted his cock again, until the beginnings 
of an erection began to show. Hey, not now, he warned himself, thinking of 
Gerta. Wait until tonight. 

He hurried back into the bedroom, glanced at his watch again - it was later 
than he'd thought - and pulled on his clothes. He was still knotting his tie 
as he went out down the hall. 

Gerta's singing was louder now, and the smell of frying bacon, of fresh 
coffee, wafted up the staircase, made his mouth water. Boy, so this was 
'playing house' or whatever she'd called it. Well, whatever she'd called it, 
it was great. His heart was singing as he started down the staircase. 

Halfway down, he picked up a small alligator shoe, strewn casually on one 
step, a second pump on the next one. Gerta must have dropped it there last 
night, he thought. He'd have to speak to her about such carelessness. He 
might have tripped over the damn things! He shoved them under his arm and 
went into the kitchen. 

"Hi, kid!" he said cheerfully. 

"Hi, Will!" Gerta grinned at him impishly. "Is everything all right?" 

"Everything's fine," Will said. "Except that you left your shoes on the 
stairs last night, and I nearly fell and broke my neck on them, coming down 
this morning." He grabbed the girl, pulling her close, and she ground her 
hot little cunt up against his crotch. He whirled her around and gave her a 
playful pat - a mock spank - on her jiggling little buttocks. Gerta squealed 
and clutched her ass cheeks protectively. "Better not do it again," Will 
warned, "or you'll get one that's for real." 

"I won't do it again," Gerta promised. "Anyway," she said with a pout, "I 
didn't do it last time." 

"Didn't do what last time?" 

"Didn't leave my shoes on the stairs." She looked at Will. Her eyes were 
serious; the game was over. "Those aren't my shoes," she said. 

"You ought to know that. I wouldn't wear alligator shoes. That's being cruel 
to animals. And besides," she said with a sigh of longing, "alligator shoes 
are so expensive. " 

"Then whose... " Will began. He stopped short, a sick feeling creeping over 
him, settling somewhere around his stomach, as the memory of an argument 
he'd had a short time ago with Nora came back to him, smashing into his 
consciousness with the full force of a hurricane. 

"Nora," he had said, looking up from the bills he'd been paying, "what the 
hell is this thing from Newton's?" 

"I guess it's a bill," Nora had said. 

"Oh, for God's sake!" He had begun to lose his temper. "I know it's a bill! 
But eighty-seven dollars?" 

"Maybe," Nora said, looking innocent. "Nora! Eighty-seven dollars for one 
pair of shoes!" 

"I guess so," Nora said contritely. "Of course, that included the tax. " 
Will had moaned, half in anguish, half in disbelief. "You couldn't have. No 
one could have. 'Even with the tax'," he mimicked. "It just isn't possible." 

"Oh, yes," Nora had said, disputing him. "They were eighty-seven dollars. I 
remember now." 

"My God! What were they made of, for Christ's sake?" 

"Alligator," Nora had said. "They're my new alligator shoes!" 

So Nora had alligator shoes. And now Will was standing here in the kitchen, 
facing the little kid he'd fucked silly the night before, holding his wife's 
alligator shoes in his hands. The alligator shoes he'd found on the stairs. 
Which meant that Nora had been in the house last night, Nora had been up 
those stairs - well, at least she'd been half-way up - and Nora had 
undoubtedly seen him with his face pressed up between the young Danish 
girl's open thighs, his tongue lapping hotly at her little pink pussy. 
Jesus! 

He sat down heavily, knowing, even without Gerta's frightened look, that his 
face had gone dead white. She poured a cup of coffee for him, urged him to 
drink it... "You'll feel better," she said... but he pushed it from him, 
afraid to take it in his trembling hands. "Is... is something wrong?" she 
asked at last. 

Will shook his head. Everything was wrong, he thought, but it sure wouldn't 
help to tell Gerta about it. 

She still stared at him. "Are you sick, Will?" 

"Yes," he said. "I'm sick." He pulled himself to his feet, moved heavily 
across the kitchen, towards the door. "I guess I'd better be going," he 
said. He started to say "See you later," but thought better of it. 

"When will you be back, Will?" 

"I don't know," he said. And when Gerta looked as if she might cry, he 
added, "I really don't know. But it will probably be late. So you just go 
ahead and fix yourself some dinner when you get hungry. Don't wait for me." 

"Will you be very late?" 

"I might be. You go to bed, too. Don't wait up." 

"Will you come back sometime, Will?" Gerta's eyes were wide now, serious, a 
little frightened. 

"Yes," he said. "I'll come back sometime." At his office, Will put through a 
call to his attorneys, Holbrook, Lawson, Eggar and Davies. 

He lit a cigarette with trembling fingers, as he heard the phone ringing at 
the other end, felt the freezing fear - and disgust, too - creep through his 
very narrow, turning it to slush and snow. He asked for Jake Eggar, when the 
phone was answered at last, and then wondered, in panic, what he would say 
to him. Well, he had to say something, he knew that, and he had to see him, 
too. Because he, Will Tracy, was in the middle of as nasty a little mess as 
you would care to see. And because Jake Eggar was the only person who might 
- just might - be able to get him out of it. 

"Hello, Jake," he said at last, when the receptionist had finally said, "Mr. 
Eggar, sir." 

"Hello, Jake, this is... " Jake cut him off with a chuckle. "I know. J. 
Alfred Prufrock." 

God! What a hell of a time for Jake to kid around. "Can it, Jake," Will 
snarled, "That's not funny." 

"Sorry," Jake apologized. 

"Look, Jake," Will hurried on, hardly hearing. "I've got to see you. Soon. 
It's serious. Damned, serious." 

"I know it is," Jake said, sardonically. 

"Well, then, can I see you this afternoon?" 

"God, no, Will. Not this afternoon. I just couldn't see you this afternoon. 
I've got a very, very important engagement." 

Will's voice rose impatiently. "Well, this evening then. I've got to see 
you, Jake. I've just got to." 

That's for sure, Jake thought. He struggled to keep his own voice level, 
struggled to sound thoughtful. "I know, Will," he soothed him. "And I'm 
sorry. But this afternoon is out." 

"Well, this evening, then. I could come to your office, you know. Or I could 
meet you at your apartment, if you'd like." 

I wouldn't like that at all, Jake thought. Aloud he said, "Afraid that's 
out, too, Will. I've got plans for tonight, too." 

"Well, when then?" Will shouted angrily. 

"Cool it, Will. Cool it. Things can't be as bad as all that." 

"No?" 

"No. And I'll see you tomorrow morning. Here, in my office. Okay?" He heard 
Will's mumbled assent, and put the telephone down. He really did have big 
plans for the evening, he thought to himself. He sure as hell did. 

CHAPTER NINE 

It was almost quarter past three when Nora opened the heavy paneled door to 
the offices of Holbrook, Lawson, Eggar and Davies, crept solicitously to the 
reception desk to announce her name, then sat down, to huddle in one of the 
enormous leather chairs that graced the waiting room. She hoped Jake 
wouldn't mind too much that she was late. She hadn't meant to be, but she'd 
had nothing to do, and she'd passed a run-down movie house where an old Gary 
Cooper film was showing, and she'd always loved Gary Cooper - and the way he 
ambled nonchalantly down the street that way - and so quickly that she 
hadn't even noticed, and then, when the lights went on in the miserable 
little theater, she'd glanced at her watch and hurried up the aisle, 
panic-stricken to think she would be late for her appointment. Well, she was 
glad she'd gone to the movie, she thought defiantly. Even if it meant she'd 
be late, it had at least taken her mind off her troubles. The thought of 
those troubles, now, filled her eyes with tears, and she dabbed at them with 
a crumpled handkerchief as Miss Murphy said, smilingly, "Mr. Eggar will see 
you now," and ushered her in to the book-lined office. 

Jake was standing there, a look of deep sympathy on his face, and as soon as 
Miss Murphy closed the door behind her, he stretched his hands out to Nora, 
put his arm around her - shoulder in a friendly, even fatherly, gesture. 
"Oh, Nora, my dear," he said gently. "I hate to see you like this. So 
overwrought. So disturbed. I really hate to see you like this." 

The hell I don't he thought, as he settled her in a deep chair. Could 
anything fit in better with his plans? 

He stared at her. Christ, but she was built! Even the little school-girl 
outfit she was wearing couldn't hide the shape of her voluptuously formed 
breasts, the magnificently undulating curves of her sensuous buttocks, the 
fullness of her hips! Sitting opposite him, relaxed and at ease for the 
moment, she unconsciously let her legs part slightly, giving Jake a glimpse 
of the milk-white skin of her inner thighs, which showed just above the tops 
of her dark stockings, their snowy purity heightened by contrast both with 
the hosiery and the black garters holding it up. Nora shifted in the chair, 
and now he saw the thin strip of her black nylon panties caught, somehow, in 
the narrow cleft of her little pussy, saw the fringe of silky pubic fleece 
straggling out from the sides. Jesus! It sent boiling lava swirling through 
his loins, turned his balls into tender, throbbing appendages. Nora was a 
hot little number - yes, she was - and he'd always known it. And he I knew, 
too, that Will Tracy wasn't the man to do justice to such a voluptuous 
woman. He'd been aching to remedy that situation ever since he'd met her, 
and the only thing that had held him back was lack of opportunity. 

Well, here was opportunity knocking at his door - or at least sitting in his 
office. Nora Tracy, sobbing out her troubles to him, begging for help. Jake 
Eggar knew just what she needed - and legal advice was only the half of it. 
Well, he'd give her a little of both. 

He leaned forward, speaking softly, soothingly, as if she were a small 
child. I mustn't frighten her, he told himself. I'll have to win her 
confidence. He cleared his throat, donning an expression of profound 
interest, of deep concern, and said, "Now, my dear, perhaps you can tell me 
what has happened." 

He sat back, hands folded piously together, fingertips touching, as Nora 
burst into fresh sobs. "There, there my dear. Just tell me." He nodded, to 
show that his heart was wrung by her predicament, then said softly, "I know 
how painful this is Nora, even how embarrassing for you. But I must know, 
after all, if I'm to help you. Now mustn't I?" 

Nora nodded and wiped her tears away once more. Then in a low voice that was 
almost a whisper, she launched into an account of what had happened the 
night before. 

Jake leaned forward from time to time, to press her on some point she had 
brought up, to question her about some incident. "Do you mean to tell me 
that Will was actually, well, actually... " he paused, then, avoiding her 
eyes as if ashamed of what he must say, went on, "... fucking - please 
forgive me for being so blunt, Nora, but we must be frank, be honest with 
one another if I am to help you... isn't that so?" And when Nora nodded, he 
repeated, "Will was fucking this, this little au pair - what did you say her 
name was? Gerta? - was fucking her?" 

Nora nodded, her face scarlet, her eyes downcast. "That's right," she 
whispered at last. "That was what he was doing." 

Jake Eggar got up slowly, walked towards Norma, took her two shoulders in 
both hands, stroked them gently, then released her. He went around her to 
the desk, picked up a pad of yellow-lined legal paper and a pencil, went 
back to his chair, sat down and began to take notes. "Nora," he apologized, 
"I'm sorry about all this. I know it isn't easy for you. But... " he waved 
his hand to show how helpless he was, "... but I must, you know." 

"I understand," Nora whispered, almost inaudibly. 

"Now you say... oh, my dear, I hate to press you on this... but you say Will 
was actually sucking this girl up between her thighs, sucking her vagina, 
sucking her clitoris?" 

Nora nodded, too ashamed to speak. But Jake noticed with satisfaction that 
she was becoming slightly itchy, too, as he forced her to describe, in lewd, 
obscene language, the perverted acts she had witnessed. Well, that was fine, 
he thought. Just fine. And his tongue darted out to lick his lips 
lasciviously, he told himself that this, too, would fit in perfectly with 
his plans. "And then she... this girl, Gerta... she sucked Will?", he 
continued. 

Nora nodded, eyes closed, too embarrassed to look at the man. "Yes," she 
whispered. She leaned back in her chair. She felt little sparks, like 
fire-crackers, exploding in her blood, making her twitch and tingle. Her own 
pussy seemed to grow warm and moist, to quiver with an odd, unwanted 
anticipation. Oh, dear God! What was the matter with her? She opened her 
eyes, and looked up, listening to Jake. 

"Can you tell me about it? Tell me exactly what you saw?" 

Nora shook her head. No, I can't, she thought. I just can't go on. Surely 
Jake could understand without her having to go into such sordid detail. 

Jake - it seemed to Nora he must be psychic - suddenly reassured her. "No, 
you can't. It's too painful for you, Nora. And I have no right to ask it of 
you." His eyes met hers, and she felt immeasurable gratitude well up within 
her. Jake was a fine, decent, wonderful man! Oh, she had been right to come 
to him! She'd known it all along. 

He placed his hands on her shoulders again, and spoke to her in a calm, 
soothing tone. "Nora, I'm sure I can help you. But you must trust me. Can 
you? Will you? After what you've been through, you poor child, I know it 
must be hard to trust any man. But will you trust me?" 

Tears of relief flooded Nora's eyes. "I trust you, Jake," she breathed, "I 
do." 

"Very well, then," Jake said, brisk and business like now. "We'll have to be 
practical about some things. First, where arc you staying?" And when Nora 
shook her head he said, "I'll ask Miss Murphy to get you a room at the 
Hadley Arms. It's quiet and comfortable and no one will bother you. You'd 
better get some rest, my dear, and I'll get to work on your case." He got 
up, helped Nora up, and ushered her to the door. "And I'll be in touch with 
you soon," he said. "Very soon." 

Nora checked into the hotel, went to her room, and drew a warm bath. After 
she dressed herself, she called room service and ordered dinner sent up. She 
was just finishing the lemon tart she'd ordered for dessert, and was sipping 
a second cup of coffee when the telephone rang. Startled, she picked it up, 
and was relieved to hear Jake Eggar's voice. "Nora, I hope I'm not 
disturbing you." 

"Not at all, Jake." In fact, she thought, it was comforting to hear from him 
so soon. 

"Are you busy?" 

"No. Just having coffee." 

"Great. Can you come over here? We could have brandy together, and talk over 
what's happened since I saw you." 

Nora felt a surge of affection for this man. He was so good, she thought. So 
good. "Of course, Jake," she said. 

"Fine, I'll be waiting for you at my apartment." Nora put the telephone 
down, called the desk to order a taxi, and closed the door behind her. 

Jake was waiting for her when Nora knocked on the door, and he led her into 
the spacious living room. The lights were low, and there were logs burning 
in the fireplace and music - some sentimental ballad that Nora vaguely 
remembered - on the hi-fi. There was a silver tray with bottles and crystal 
glasses, too, on the marble table in front of the couch, and Jake poured 
them each a stiff drink. 

Nora sank back on the couch, relaxed, happier than she'd been in days. She 
felt comfortable with' Jake, that was it. And when she finished her drink, 
and he poured her another, she sipped at that one, too. She began to feel a 
little giddy - it must have been the fire, along with the brandy, she 
thought - and things seemed to melt into one another; the room, the fire, 
the warmth and comfort, and the relief she felt at having Jake Eggar there. 
Good old Jake Eggar; she could trust Jake, and Jake was going to help her, 
too. It was funny, Nora reflected; everything had seemed so God awful that 
morning, and now her world was rosy again. And when Jake poured another 
drink for her, she didn't protest at all, although she knew she was getting 
a little bit drunk. But it would be all right. Wasn't Jake Eggar there to 
take care of her as her lawyer? I He poured her still another drink, and 
then he said diffidently, "Nora, dear, I'm going to ask you to do something 
for me. It's going to be painful, I'm afraid, but it's something that's 
really quite, quite necessary." He held out his hands to her, helped her to 
her feet. "You will do it, won't you?" he pleaded. 

"Oh, yes," Jake said. Her speech seemed a little slurred, her words a little 
slushy. She staggered, too, just a little, and Jake caught her and helped 
her across the room and into his study, where he led her to the desk. He 
took down a couple of large, leather-bound volumes that Nora thought at 
first were law books, and placed them in front of her. 

"It was so difficult for you talk about - well, about the things you saw 
last night," he said to Nora, as if apologizing for asking her to, "that I 
thought it might be easier if I just showed you some pictures of various 
acts and you can tell me if you saw them doing any of them. We must be very 
precise when we present out case." 

Nora's brain seemed to swim a little. What kind of pictures, for heaven's 
sake? And why? They must be legal exhibits, she decided -pictures from the 
divorce cases Jake had handled before. Well maybe it would be easier than 
her having to describe everything in complete detail. 

He put his arm around her, as if to give her courage, and flipped the book 
open to a photograph of a young girl with her legs spread wide, exposing the 
full plane of her open young vagina to the gleefully smiling face of a man 
just inches above it. Nora's breath choked in her throat, and her heart 
began to race, as Jake's arm tightened around her shoulder. "Was this what 
you saw last night?", he asked. 

Nora nodded. "Yes," she whispered. It was lewd, disgusting, and it made her 
stomach churn, her very bones seemed to melt. But also, in spit! of its 
lewdness, it sent little pin pricks of excitement rippling slowly up between 
her legs, an excitement she had never known before. 

Jake felt the quiver that passed through her body, knew that it signaled the 
beginning tide of passion, one that would soon be beyond control. She's 
getting hot, he thought, and told himself, smugly, that it had been a whole 
lot easier than he had expected. His best friend. Will Tracy's wife, was 
almost ready to fuck, and God knows, he'd been ready since the moment she 
walked in. 

He dug his fingers strongly into her shoulders now and Nora gasped at the 
sudden pressure as he forced her around to face him. His hands slid down 
over the gently curving mounds of her thighs, pulled inward against the 
sensuous half moons of her undulating buttocks, until he felt the throbbing 
warmth of her cunt pressing tightly against his pelvis. 

Through the thin fabric of her skirt, Nora felt the growing hardness of Jake 
Eggar's burgeoning, stiffening cock. She squirmed backward, knowing 
instinctively that she must somehow escape. Yet she was powerless to move, 
and when she opened her mouth to protest, she found she could form no words, 
and merely began to moan quietly. Jake pressed closer, stroking her thighs 
more insistently now, while his bulging cock, enclosed within his trousers, 
nevertheless pressed, twitching and jerking, against her legs. With a swift, 
sharp movement, he bent his face to Nora, fastened his mouth on hers, forced 
his tongue between her lips, on, deep inside, almost to her throat, and held 
her, gasping for breath now, in a long, wet kiss. 

Little flickers of fire seemed to sputter up Nora's spine, spreading out 
through all her limbs in a new, wonderful thrill. Oh, it was wicked, this 
thing she was doing. But it was good, too. And how could she be blamed, 
after what Will had done to that nakedly squirming little blond girl last 
night? Relaxing, she began to respond to the maddening touch of Jake's 
incessant caresses, began to tingle with delight as he continued to stroke 
her thighs as they stood pressed tightly together. 

Almost unconsciously, she spread her legs a little, and in a moment, Jake's 
hand moved expertly up under her skirt, to trace the smooth, softly 
trembling skin of her inner thighs, to caress, ever so gently, the narrow 
split of her vaginal passage, between her legs, running his finger over the 
thin nylon band of her panties that still shielded it. Nothing seemed real 
to her any more, nothing seemed important standing there, except the 
spine-tingling excitement of another man's burning hands and fingers 
exploring her body that was now as taut, as tight, as a violin string tuned 
to high. 

And then, like just such a string, something snapped, and Nora came back to 
herself with a start. My God! What was she doing? What was she thinking of? 
She closed her eyes, shaking her head, and the terrible sight of Will 
kneeling above the young Fourteen-year old Danish girl's nakedly squirming 
body, his lust-swollen penis sunk deep into her hotly sucking mouth, came 
back to her. Well, whatever she was doing, it was nothing compared to the 
evil she had witnessed the night before. Decency is done and over with, her 
befuddled mind proclaimed; morality is no more. And if that's so - well, why 
not? She relaxed again, feeling all soft and warm and wonderful inside, and 
then she felt Jake's fingers fumbling with the buttons on her dress, the 
zipper at the back. Well, why not? she asked herself again, and twisted 
around to make it that much easier for him. 

She had a vague notion that Jake was leading her across the room to the 
couch, that he was telling her she seemed a little upset, a little unsteady, 
and that it would be better if she were to lie down, and she told herself 
that that was true, and anyway, there was nothing to worry about, was there? 
Not with good ol' Jake Eggar. She could trust Jake Eggar. Hadn't she and her 
husband known him all these years? And then she was dimly aware that he had 
eased the frilly little dress she'd been wearing down over her hips, and 
tossed it somewhere behind the couch in his terrible urgency to clap his 
huge hands over the firmly rounded mounds of her heaving breasts, to knead 
them roughly, to take the two red buds of her nipples between thumbs and 
forefingers and roll and tease and taunt them into stiff little erections. 
With a wild motion, he flung his head forward, and with a strange, weird 
groan, he clamped his mouth over one pointed, hard little knob and began to 
suck on it, while white hot flames seemed to lick at Nora's loins, turning 
her body into a molten mass of pleasure. She moaned, lying limp against the 
couch, eyes closed and body afire while Jake's tongue traced along the 
narrow furrow between her lovely breasts, moved slowly, deliciously, along 
the smooth white skin, the little line of fuzz on her belly. His hands 
slipped down, making her tingle, slipped under the elastic waistband of her 
black nylon panties, struggling to pull them off. He mustn't, she told 
herself! Oh, no! He mustn't. But she seemed unable to speak her thoughts and 
listened with amazement to her own voice urging "Hurry! Hurry!" 

Jake pulled the wisp of cloth down over the whitely rounded curves of her 
hips, over her slim legs, eased it along until it fell into a little heap at 
her feet, and all the time Nora was urging "Hurry, hurry!" Then, as the hot 
air of the over-heated library wafted across her exposed vagina, a ripple of 
delight ran through her. This, this was going to be so wonderful, she 
thought. She arched her naked loins upwards as Jake began to caress her 
pubic area, to twine his fingers in the soft, silken strands of golden hair 
that covered her pubic mound. "God, but you're a luscious woman!" he 
muttered, admiringly,, raising his head to rake her entire body with a lewd 
stare. His eyes roved over her again, and then Nora felt still new, still 
different thrills pound through her as he parted the sensitive lips of her 
cunt and slowly, teasingly, slipped his middle finger up into its smooth 
liquid wetness. 

As he wormed his finger further around up inside her moist, throbbing 
vagina, Nora quivered again, half in fear and half in anticipation. An image 
of herself as a vile, wanton woman, abandoning herself to animal lust, made 
her cringe and try to draw away from Jake. The thought of her evilness 
seared her mind! Why, why was she submitting to this obscene touching of her 
by another man? Wasn't she Nora Tracy, loving mother of Todd and Ellen? 

Yes, she acknowledged with a shudder, she was. But she was also, she knew, a 
woman, and a woman fully aroused for perhaps the first time in her life, and 
when she opened her mouth to protest, the words she'd planned to say were 
stifled, and she could only moan "Jake, Jake," over and over, in ecstatic 
whispers, while she ground her hips hungrily up against his probing fingers. 

Then, with a soft, wet sucking sound, Jake withdrew his finger from her 
cunt, and, as Nora lay helpless beneath him, he placed his hands on her firm 
white thighs, spread them apart until the fleshy lips of her pink little 
pussy pouted nakedly up at him. He knelt now between her ankles, his eyes 
endlessly exploring the sight of her throbbing, moist cunt, his fingers 
exploring the golden, softly curling pubic hair that fringed the wetly 
glistening edges of it. The memory of the picture he had shown to Nora such 
a short time before suddenly flashed through his mind. God, he'd like to do 
that to her - bury his face up between her thighs, burrow against the soft 
golden cunt hair, flick his tongue over the little pink bud of her clitoris, 
then sink it deep within the throbbing little cuntal channel. He glanced at 
Nora, and their eyes met, and in a flash, Nora understood what he intended 
to do to her! 

Oh, he couldn't! Not that! She'd been willing to let him do all those other 
awful things to her. 

But this! "No, she whimpered recoiling in fear and revulsion. "My God, 
Jake!" 

"Why not?" he asked, and she caught a glimpse of sheer open lust in his 
eyes. 

"Because it's wicked," Nora said, the words expelled breathlessly upon the 
air. "It's wicked, and evil, and... " tears of shame and humiliation flooded 
her eyes, and then, as he slipped from the couch, moved away from her, tears 
of relief replaced them. Oh, dear Jake! He was a good man. He wasn't going 
to do this awful thing to her. She'd been right to trust him. A thin, faint 
sound caught her ear, and Nora opened her eyes wide, turning to stare at 
Jake. Good God! He was unbuckling his belt, unzipping his fly, hurriedly 
pushing his pants down around his ankles, stepping out of them. Nora moaned 
in helpless frustration as Jake straightened up, and she saw his thick, 
fleshy cock, stiff as a rod beneath his shorts. He eased them down over his 
hips, and she gazed in fascinated horror at his heavily jutting penis. My 
God! It was huge! Was he really going to try -oh, God, no - he would stretch 
her terribly! No, she would never let him - she couldn't! There was still 
time for her to get away. She tried to pull herself up, to get to her feet, 
but her body was frozen with fear, paralyzed, and she sank back, trembling, 
completely at his mercy. 

Jake knelt above the nakedly stripped woman's palpitating body again, again 
thrusting his head forward as he ordered "Spread your legs wide, Nora. I 
want to look at that sweet little pussy of yours." Whimpering, Nora managed 
to do as she was told, then stifled a low groan of rising shame as her 
husband's friend's face dropped forward and his tongue flicked out to probe 
hotly at the wet pink lips of her quivering vagina. She ground her hips hard 
into the leather-covered couch, trying desperately to escape his long, 
sinuously worming tongue. But the maddening torture, the vile ravishment of 
her now aching loins continued, and Nora could only gasp, "My God!... oh, my 
God!... oh, dear God, stop... stop!" But Jake's relentlessly snaking tongue 
continued to lick lewdly at the sensitive skin of her inner thighs, to lap 
at the tiny bud of her clitoris, to dart deep up inside her throbbing, moist 
cuntal passage. Oh, God! It couldn't be happening. It couldn't be! And then 
little showers of sparks began to explode at the very center of Nora's 
being, sending waves of unwanted pleasure through her whole body. The 
knowledge that she was enjoying - was actually enjoying - this horrible 
debasement of her flesh made Nora moan in shame; the knowledge that she 
would not stop it, even if she'd had the power to, increased her steadily 
mounting humiliation. 

Jake slipped his hands under her nakedly quivering buttocks, cupping them, 
squeezing them hotly in his palms, while his tongue lashed out, flicking at 
the fleshy pink lips of her cunt which lay open to him like a flowering 
rose-bud ready for the picking. He grinned triumphantly and ground his hot 
tongue deeper and deeper into her now clasping vagina. Nora squirmed and 
thrashed beneath him, and now little mewls of pleasure escaped, unbidden, 
from her lips. She was as vile, as depraved as all the other men in the 
world, she told herself, and yet her body was wracked with a delight she had 
never even dreamed of. 

Her pussy was drenched now with the vaginal fluids that seeped from it, 
flowed down onto her open thighs, moistened her pubic fleece. Oh, dear God! 
It was so horrible! And yet Nora wanted the delicious sucking of her vagina 
to go on forever. 

Suddenly, though, Jake pulled his head away from her hotly pulsating pussy 
to glare at her with now victorious eyes. Nora let out an involuntary groan, 
and then, beyond all control, began to beg, "Don't stop, Jake. Oh, for God's 
sake. Don't stop!" 

Jake leered above her sadistically. "What do you want me to do, Nora?" he 
asked. 

"That!" 

"What's that? Tell me!" And when Nora remained silent, the words cleaving to 
her tongue, he shook her roughly. "Tell me what you want me to do to you," 
he ordered. 

"I want you to do what you were doing," she whimpered helplessly. 

"Well, I'm not going to. Not now. I'm going to do something different. Tell 
me what it is, Nora!" His voice was hard and frightening. "Tell me!" he 
ordered again. 

"I want you to... to... " Oh, God! She couldn't say it, couldn't utter the 
foul word. Yet the sight of Jake's mean, evil eyes boring into her terrified 
her. "I want you to fuck me," she whimpered at last. 

She watched as Jake's hand reached for his massive penis, extending from his 
loins like a brandished sword, saw him lewdly draw the foreskin back and 
forth, massaging the fleshy instrument while a few drops of lubricating 
fluid oozed from the hole at the tip. "Fuck you how?" he snarled. 

Nora shook her head, mesmerized by the sight of Jake's cock, unable to 
speak. "Fuck you how?" he repeated angrily. "Tell me how! And beg, too!" 

A tremor shook Nora's helpless body. "I want you to... to . 

"Yes?" Jake prompted. 

"To fuck me, Jake. To fuck me with your... your cock... I want you to. Oh, 
please, Jake! Please fuck me... fuck me!" 

"It will be a pleasure," Jake said, his lips curling in a conquering sneer. 
"A real pleasure!" he repeated. He grasped his throbbing shaft firmly in his 
hand and guided it to Nora's excitement drenched pussy, using the thick, 
bulbous head to part the soft fleshy lips. A little shiver of ecstasy shot 
through her at the electrifying contact, and then she gasped in pain as the 
swollen tip pressed into the tight little opening, stretching it unbearably. 

"Don't! No, don't! You're hurting me!" she screamed in anguish, then fell 
silent as Jake continued to thrust his throbbing penis into the narrow 
sheath of her cunt, inching it slowly, relentlessly in until it sank deep 
into her belly, tilling her excruciatingly stretched vagina almost to the 
bursting point. "Oh, God!" she grunted again, as he flexed his cock inside 
her vagina. And then, as she grew accustomed to the alien presence there, 
her groans tapered off into little sighs of pleasure. 

Jake began to rotate his hips, grinding deep up into her open cunt mouth, 
until he felt the lust-swollen head press tight back against her cervix. 
Then, he began a slow, rhythmic rocking above her, fucking into her now 
warmly absorbing pussy walls in a long, easy rhythm, while Nora moved her 
hips in a similar rhythm, grinding her buttocks deep into the coffee-colored 
leather of the couch, twisting and writhing erotically about as she 
struggled to meet his ever lengthening thrusts. She'd never known anything 
like this, never known that this was what fucking was like, that this 
intense, overwhelming pleasure was what was hers by right. Yes, by right! 
She was not the whore she'd considered herself such a short time before, 
when she had submitted to Jake's first tonguing of her vagina. Not a wanton, 
abandoned creature. Not vile, not depraved. No, she told herself again, she 
was no whore - she was just suddenly becoming a real woman at last! 

Jake's rampaging rod fucked in and out of her wide spread cuntal lips with 
ever-increasing force as he lengthened his stroke, then drove the 
lust-hardened shaft all the way up between her thighs to the hilt. His 
aching, sperm-filled balls smacked nakedly against the upturned cheeks of 
her buttocks, and her legs jerked out to quiver and jerk obscenely on either 
side of his pounding hips. Now he slipped his hand beneath her buttocks, 
slid it around to the long, narrow crevice between the cheeks of her ass, 
ran it up and down, searching, until he found the tiny puckered hole of her 
anus. 

He stroked it gently, caressing it, sending little shocks of exquisite 
pleasure surging like tropical storms through her passion drenched body. 
Then, with a sudden quick movement, he thrust a finger into the soft, 
rubbery opening of the spongy orifice, while Nora cried out in pain. But as 
her tight rectal passage became used to the invading digit, the pain melted 
and Nora again felt a wonderful pleasure sweep through her body. She screwed 
her rectum back on his hotly probing middle finger, and under this new and 
exquisite sensation of being impaled by the heavy cock that fucked in and 
out of her vagina and the finger sunk to the second knuckle in her tight 
little anus, she began to lurch from side to side. Her face was contorted 
with her wild, passionate abandon, and suddenly she began to chant, "Oh... 
ooohhhh... ooohhhh." 

Jake quickened his strokes once more, and then felt the warm sticky fluid of 
her beginning climax gush forth from the walls of her vagina, enveloping his 
pistoning cock. "Oh... oooh! Oh, God!" she screamed now. "Aaaaagh! My God! 
I'm cumming! I'm cummmmmming! Aaaaagh!" 

As Nora's frenzied cry split the air, Jake felt the boiling sperm in his 
swollen, aching balls churn and bubble, and then spurt the length of his 
rigid penis to shoot far up into her soft, quivering belly. His juices 
mingled with his friend's wife's own hot ones in a deep, passionate pool of 
sheer bliss, sheer joy that she had never known existed. 

She lay back against the couch now, her limply fallen legs splayed obscenely 
out to the sides, as Jake slowly eased his deflating penis from her still 
rhythmically quivering cunt. He rolled over beside her, and stared at her 
heaving breasts, her voluptuous, spent body with a smile of satisfaction. 
Well, he thought smugly, he'd given her the fuck she'd needed so badly, and 
now for the other? It was about time for that, now. He slipped from the 
couch and began to pull on his clothes, reaching out to hand Nora hers with 
a laconic, "Here!" 

At the sound of his voice, a sudden wave of consciousness suffused Nora with 
shame. My God! What had she done! Embarrassed to meet she and her husband's 
friend's eyes after what she had let him do to her naked body, she snatched 
her clothes from his outstretched hand, and covered herself with them as 
best she could, while she struggled into them. As she smoothed her skirt, 
she turned to meet his hard, cold eyes. "Nora, my dear," he said in his 
usual suave, charming voice, while his mouth twitched with a scornful smile, 
"you came to see me about something important, I think. Can you remember 
what it was?" 

CHAPTER TEN 

Jake Eggar walked past his secretary with a jaunty step, disappeared into 
his private office and closed the door. He glanced casually at the mail on 
the desk, decided it could wait, sat down, and lit a cigarette as he gloated 
over his triumph of the night before. God, but Will's wife was a luscious 
creature, and even better in the sack than he had anticipated. It hadn't 
been hard to get her there, either. A little sympathy and a lot of liquor, 
and there she was, legs spread wide and naked cunt open to welcome him. Of 
course, he'd laid his plans well, he admitted to himself admiringly. Planned 
his lays well, too, he punned, and burst out in a gale of raucous laughter 
at his own joke. He was a clever guy - he was doing okay. And then he 
brushed aside thoughts of the previous night to concentrate on the one to 
come. 

Same time, same place, same station, he mused. And the same characters, too. 
Nora, he was willing to concede, might be a bit more difficult to persuade 
than she'd been the night before - he couldn't really pull off the 
sympathetic lawyer bit with her after what had happened. Still, he would 
find a way. As for the others, it would be a breeze. Listen to Will Tracy 
the way he'd listened to Nora - play again the role of Kind OF Lawyer Eggar 
- helpful and wise - and Will would snap at the bait. He could count on him 
to bring that young Danish chick along, too, and he was looking forward to 
meeting her. He definitely was. Jake licked his lips lasciviously, thinking 
of the fun the four would have at the little surprise party he was planning. 

He glanced at the ticking clock on the marble mantle; nine o'clock - and all 
was well. Just then the buzzer on his desk rang and Miss Murphy announced, 
"Mr. Tracy to see you, sir." 

So Will was right on time. Well, Jake had expected that. "Show him in," he 
told Miss Murphy. He glanced at the clock again: nine-o-nine, and all was 
even better. 

He stood behind his desk as Will, his face drawn and haggard, his eyes 
listless, shuffled across the room, took Jake's hand and shook it 
lethargically. The smirk was gone from Eggar's face now, replaced by a 
gentle, understanding smile, a gaze that assured Tracy of his deep sympathy. 
"What is it, Will?" he asked unctuously. "My God, man, you look like 
someone's giving you a hard time." 

Will sat down heavily in the chair opposite Jake, shaking his head. "They 
sure are, Jake," he said at last. And then, in a voice filled with despair, 
he added, "I guess it's my own damn fault." 

You're damn right it is, Eggar thought. But he merely nodded his head sagely 
and folded his hands in front of him. "Suppose you tell me about it." 

Will reached for the mahogany cigarette box on the desk - "Mind if I smoke?" 
- fumbled for matches, lit up at last and inhaled deeply. "It's about me and 
Nora and Gerta - she's our new au pair girl," he said, blowing a smoke ring 
in the air. 

Jake lifted his eyebrows, pretending bewilderment. "Au pair? I didn't know 
you had one." 

"She's new," Will said miserably. "Her name is Gerta. She's from Denmark." 

"Well," Jake said brightly. "That must be quite a help for Nora." 

Will shook his head. "Nora hasn't seen her yet." No, he thought, that wasn't 
true. But he wasn't ready to go into those details yet. "You see, Jake," he 
said, a plea for understanding in his voice, "Nora's sister Grace - Grace 
Schafer - was in an automobile accident last Thursday, and Nora went up to 
take care of her. And that was the day - Thursday - when Gerta - she's the 
au pair - came to stay." 

Jake nodded his head gravely as if he were just beginning to get the 
picture. "So you were alone with, uh, Gerta, then?" 

Will swallowed, then said in a very low voice, "That's right." 

Eggar thought for a moment, and then shook his finger waggishly at Will. 
"And there was a little hanky panky, without Nora there. Is that it?" 

"Well, yes," Will admitted. "There was some... some hanky panky." 

Jake gave Will a reassuring smile. "Well, Will," he said, "that isn't so 
bad. I'll bet there would have been with any man - any normal man he was 
careful to add, "under the circumstances." He lit a cigarette himself. "I'm 
sure everything will be okay, as long as Nora doesn't find out, of course." 

Will shifted his weight in the chair, then cleared his throat. "Nora did 
find out," he said miserably. 

"Good Lord, man! You didn't tell her, did you?" 

Will shook his head. "No." 

"Well then, why do you think she knows?" 

"Because she saw us!" 

Jake Eggar stared at Will incredulously. "She saw you?" 

"I think so, Jake. At least the other night, when Gerta and I were... " His 
voice trailed off in embarrassment. 

"Screwing?" Jake asked. An almost imperceptible smile played about his lips 
for a moment and then, carefully, he masked it. God, he was enjoying this! 
Seeing Will Tracy squirming in embarrassment, confessing his transgressions 
like a school kid hauled in before the principal. 

"Screwing," Will admitted. He stared at the floor in confusion. 

"So," Jake said, his voice cold and accusing now, "Nora saw you. She walked 
in on the two of you, found Gerta with her pants down and-you with your 
pecker up. Is that it?" 

"Yes," Will nodded, swallowing hard. "No. I don't know. Oh, for Christ's 
sake, Jake, I'm not sure. I'm not sure of anything any more." 

Jake rose, as if to say the interview was over, as if Will was welcome to 
leave. "How do you expect me to help you, Will, if you're not going to level 
with me." 

"I am leveling with you," Will said desperately. "Oh, God, Jake, I'm doing 
the best I can." 

"Well, then, just tell it to me the way it happened." 

Will took a deep breath, while his eyes swept the room, lingered to stare 
out the window, then at last, filled with anguish, met Jake's. He began his 
story again, in a low, choked voice. "Well, Gerta and I were up in the 
bedroom... Nora's and mine... " he paused. 

"Fucking," Jake prompted. 

"Okay. Fucking. And I don't know what happened, except that that's what we 
were doing... " he caught Jake's scowl, "... well, fucking. And then," he 
said, "this morning, when I went down to breakfast, I found Nora's shoes on 
the stairs. So naturally, I guesses she'd been in the house. And, naturally, 
I guess she saw us... " 

"Fucking?" 

"Yes," Will said impatiently. "Fucking. So I got kind of scared about the 
whole thing and I put a call through to Grace's house - Grace Schafer's - 
and there wasn't any answer. Then I called the hospital to see if maybe - 
just maybe - Nora was there." 

"And she wasn't," Jake said sorrowfully. 

"And she wasn't. The nurse said she'd left last night to drive back here. 
Said she'd been worried because I didn't answer the telephone when she 
called." 

"Where is Nora now?" Jake asked, his voice full of solicitude. "God only 
knows!" 

"That's bad," Jake said. "But it could be worse." He gave Will a disarming 
smile before - sadistically - he moved in for the kill. "What," he asked, 
"if Gerta had been under age?" 

Will sat in the chair opposite Jake for a very long time. He heard the 
interminable ticking of the clock, saw the sun dance across Jake's desk, 
even heard the telephone ring once. He knew that his jaw was hanging slack, 
his mouth open, that he struggled for words, but that none came. After an 
eternity had passed, he managed to croak, "She is." 

It seemed that another eternity passed as Will sat watching the expressions 
change - like the lights at a psychedelic show - on Jake's face. Later, he 
was aware that Jake - good old Jake Eggar. he thought, he's a real friend - 
was pouring him a drink from the bottle he took from the liquor cabinet that 
was disguised as a set of law books, was loosening his tie, was patting his 
shoulder helpfully. Then he saw that Jake was shaking his head gravely. 
"That's bad, Will," he said. "That's very bad, you know." 

"Yes," Will said wretchedly. "I know." 

They watched each other again. Jake began to glance openly at his watch, to 
busy himself with papers on his desk. He excused himself, and went through 
his mail, opening letters, reading them, making notes on some. God damn, 
Will thought. He's trying to get rid of me. 

Well, he wasn't going. Not until Jake promised to help him out of this mess. 
How the hell could he go to his own office, sit there all day with a sword 
like this dangling over his head? How? 

Jake pulled a pair of horn-rimmed glasses from his breast pocket, clapped 
them on, got out a law book and began to leaf through it. Once his eyes, 
peering over the rims of his glasses, met Will's with a look that said, as 
plain as day, "Why the hell are you still here? Can't you see I'm busy?" 
Then he buried himself again in his book. 

Will cleared his throat, and Jake looked up. "Yes?" he asked. 

"What the hell am I supposed to do, Jake?" 

Jake shook his head. "I don't know, Will. Just hope for the best, I guess. 
Hope no one learns about the way you fucked this kid; they'll throw the book 
at you, you know, for screwing a minor." He paused, and deep furrows 
wrinkled his brow. "You're in real trouble, Will." 

"Christ!" Will half rose from his chair and pounded his clenched fist on the 
leather-covered desk. "I know that. That's why I came to see you, for 
Christ's sake." 

Jake ignored the outburst of anger and went on, speaking calmly. "And as for 
Nora - well, I guess there, too, you'd better just hope. Maybe she'll come 
back - maybe she'll forgive and forget - maybe not." He sighed, and plucked 
his glasses from the bridge of his nose. "I just don't know, Will. I just 
don't know." 

He put his glasses on again, shuffled the papers on his desk, found a letter 
to-be signed and wrote his name across it, watching Will out of the corner 
of his eye the whole time. He had lit another cigarette, taken a couple of 
puffs, snubbed it out, lit another. Scared silly, Jake thought gleefully. 
Well, that was just the way he wanted him. 

Will lit another cigarette, snubbed it out angrily, sighed, then wearily 
pushed his chair back. "I suppose you want me to go?" 

"Well," Jake said, his voice contrite, his manner apologetic, "I am rather 
busy this morning." He put down the sheaf of papers he was holding, got up 
and walked across the room with Will. At the door, Tracy whirled around to 
demand again, "What the hell am I supposed to do?" 

"Don't do anything right now. Will," Jake said in an avuncular tone. "But... 
" Will began. 

Jake interrupted him. "Let me think about it. Okay?" He clapped Will on the 
shoulder. "Okay." 

"Good. And look, Will, why don't you come over to my place tonight. You and 
Gerta? We can talk some more." 

"God, yes," Will said, wiping the perspiration from his forehead. "We'll 
both be there." 

As the door closed, Jake's mouth twitched in a sadistic grin. It had been 
good before, he told himself; then it had been better. But this was best of 
all. In fact, it was damn near perfect. He'd played his cards well, and he 
got what he wanted. 

He walked back to his desk singing, "Everything's going my way." 

The first time Miss Murphy buzzed Jake to say, "Mrs. Tracy is on the line," 
he told her to say he was out. She would call back, he thought. If she'll 
call once, she'll call back. And he had been sure she would call, too. They 
always did. Partly because they were scared, but partly, too, because they 
wanted more of the same, although, God knows, they'd never admit it. Idly, 
Jake wondered what pretext Nora had thought up for the telephone call. 

The second time Miss Murphy announced, "Mrs. Tracy," Jake said, "Tell her 
I'm in a conference. Tell her to call me later." 

But in a moment Miss Murphy buzzed again. "Mrs. Tracy wants you to call her, 
when you're free," she said. "She left her number." 

"Okay," Jake said. He'd call, all right, but not right away. Let her sweat 
it out a while. Make her easier to handle, later. 

He let more than an hour pass before he dialed the Hadley Arms and asked for 
Nora's room. He noted, with satisfaction, that she answered the phone on the 
first ring. That meant she'd been sitting there waiting for him, which was 
just what he'd expected. 

She began to stammer when she heard his voice - he'd expected that, too - 
and when Jake said, "Nora? Nora! Are you there?" she burst into tears. 

"Nora! What's the matter with you?" 

"Oh, God!" she sobbed. "I can't talk to you. 

I just can't." 

"Nora, I want to see you." 

"NO!" 

"When?" 

"NEVER!" 

"Okay," Jake said. "I'll pick you up at seven tonight. We'll have dinner 
together." And before Nora could protest, he hung up. 

CHAPTER ELEVEN 

Jake made a point of arriving at the Hadley Arms at a quarter past seven; 
Nora, he saw with a smile, was waiting for him in the lobby, and from the 
half-smoked cigarette stubs collected in the ashtray by her side, he knew 
she'd been there quite some time. He led her through the lobby, saying 
little, and helped her into the car, then headed towards a small restaurant 
on the outskirts of town. 

He ordered double martinis for both of them, although Nora protested that 
she wasn't drinking. And, although he ordered another round when he'd 
finished his own, he saw that Nora's first one was unfinished, her second 
one untouched. 

He ordered wine with dinner, too, but Nora barely tasted the glass he poured 
for her. And after she'd picked at her steak, her baked potato, her green 
salad, and left most of it on her plate, he ordered brandy. 

Nora sipped hers slowly - Jake was way ahead of her on his drink - but she 
finished it and even drank a second. Still, she was sober as a judge - Jake 
laughed a little at the expression, remembering some of the jurists he'd 
known - when they left. 

He hadn't been able to get her drunk this time, he thought. He'd flunked 
that test; still, he deserved an "A" for effort. 

Nora sat beside him in the car, twisting her handkerchief into knots, 
wadding it into a little ball, straightening it. God, he thought, her nerves 
must be as frayed as an old lamp cord. Still, there was more motivating her 
than fear alone, and what that was, Jake knew, was raw, animal lust. The 
woman was as hot, already, as a two-dollar pistol. What would she be like 
later? 

He'd been right about Will Tracy, Jake decided; he wasn't man enough to take 
care of his wife. You'd think Will would thank Jake for doing the job for 
him; even if he didn't, Jake was getting his own reward. And he was going to 
get a lot more of her hot little pussy, and soon, too. 

"Feeling all right, Nora?" he asked once. But Nora was too wrapped up in her 
own thoughts to answer. Dear God! Why had she called Jake? 

She shook her head. It had seemed logical, this morning. She'd been sitting 
on the edge of the bed, suddenly terrified that he might tell someone about 
what she had let him do to her last night, and that the story would get back 
to Will. She couldn't let that happen - she just couldn't. She would have to 
see Jake again - although the idea of doing so froze her very marrow - make 
him swear on whatever honor he had, never, never to mention that she had 
gone to his apartment and let him do it to her. 

She had had to do that. And now here she was, sitting in his car, too 
frightened to speak. Here she was alone with him, and she saw, with a 
shudder of panic, that he was heading towards his apartment again. 

"Oh, no!" she moaned, covering her face with her hands. 

Jake slid the car against the curb, braked, cut the motor. "Something 
bothering you, Nora?" he asked sarcastically. 

Suddenly the words came tumbling forth, a gush, a torrent, spilling out 
Nora's anguish. "Jake," she pleaded with him, "please, please promise me 
you'll never tell anyone what happened last night." 

"Now, why should I do that?" he drawled. 

"Oh, Jake!" Nora's eyes filled with tears of gratitude. "You won't tell! Oh, 
I knew you wouldn't!" 

"Hold on, now!" Jake said, taking her shoulder brutally, turning her to face 
him. "I didn't say I wouldn't." 

"But you won't?" Nora begged. 

Jake shrugged. "Depends on you," he said. 

The tone of his voice chilled Nora's veins. "What - what do you mean?" 

"Just that," Jake said casually. "It depends on you - and what you're 
willing to do to keep me from telling." 

The words whirled around in Nora's brain, like bits of a picture puzzle 
spread out on a card table, and she tried desperately to put them together 
so that they would make sense, have meaning. When at last, at long last, she 
did, she felt a little sick. She peered through the windshield and saw the 
moon and the stars above her, and knew that the world - the world beyond her 
- hadn't changed at all, and at the same time she knew her own world could 
never be the same. "What do you want me to do?" she heard someone ask and 
then, with a little spine-chilling laugh, realized that she herself had 
spoken. 

"Let's go inside," Jake said harshly. 

Nora shook her head, and when she spoke her voice was shrill and sharp. "No. 
No, Jake! I couldn't." 

"I might have to tell Will, then." 

"You wouldn't. You wouldn't!" 

"I would." 

Nora put her trembling hand to her damp forehead. "Will will... will... " 

"What?" 

"He'll hate you. He'll hate and loathe and despise you." 

"He might," Jake said. "But I don't really care. Now, on the other hand, if 
he hates and loathes and despises you, you're going to feel real bad about 
it. aren't you, Nora?" 

She huddled against the back of the seat. When Jake barked, "Go inside," she 
climbed from the car, afraid to disobey, and followed him in to the library. 

"Sit down!" 

Gratefully, Nora collapsed on the leather sofa, recognizing it with a little 
twinge of horror. "Have a drink?" Jake asked. "Do you good." Nora shook her 
head. She'd been drunk the night before, and that had led to her shocking, 
her disgraceful behavior. No, thank you, she wasn't getting drunk tonight. 

"Smoke, then?" He fumbled in a pocket, then held out a crumpled cigarette to 
her. She let Jake light it for her, and then inhaled deeply. 

It tasted sweet - sweeter than any cigarette she'd ever had - and it seemed 
to soothe her, in a way no cigarette ever had. She wasn't so much afraid of 
Jake, now; she even thought she was almost glad to be here. And when little 
thrills of excitement began to course through her at Jake's nearness, she 
leaned back drowsily. She noticed that the cigarette seemed to relax Jake, 
too, and she thought it would be nice to smoke another. "May I have another 
one?" she asked. "They're nice." 

"A reefer?" 

"I don't know what they are, but they're good," Nora said. 

"Sure!" Jake found another. "Ever had a reefer before, Nora?" 

Nora shook her head. The word seemed familiar to her - she racked her brain 
to remember it - and then it seemed it had something to do with drugs, with 
marijuana, wasn't that it? But she thought that couldn't be, because that 
was illegal, and so Jake wouldn't have given her one. "No," she said at 
last, "I've never had a reefer before." 

"You won't forget it," Jake said. He opened the door of the library, and 
guiding her firmly by the elbow, led her into the bedroom. 

She looked hazily, through her drug-dimmed eyes, around the room. She hadn't 
been in here before, but she thought she was going to like it. Little 
flashes of pleasure were traveling up and down her spine, like railroad 
trains on a siding, and she gasped a little, wondering why nothing like this 
had ever happened to her before. 

Except for lust night, of course. It had happened a little bit like this 
last night. "Didn't it, Jake?" she asked. 

He looked puzzled and that puzzled Nora, but she forgot about that because 
he suddenly grasped her by the shoulder, his fingers biting deep into her 
soft white flesh, and he fumbled with the buttons on her blouse, and then he 
opened it and his fingers trailed over the firm white mounds of her breasts, 
twisting and tweaking her ruby-red nipples, tracing the narrow, milk-white 
valley between the twin globes. 

The flashes of pleasure increased, like trains traveling faster and faster, 
coming nearer, and then there was a kind of crashing ecstasy, as if two 
trains had collided head-on, when Jake bent forward and his tongue flicked 
out at last to one nipple, whipping it into a taut little erection. Nora 
moaned, and moaned again as she felt her husband's friend's hands travel 
down her sides, felt him slip his fingers under the waistband of her thin 
nylon panties, felt the sharp tug as he ripped them off. His fingers played 
over her smooth white hips, sending delicious thrills tiptoeing up and down 
her spine, and then they converged on the flat plane of her belly, slid the 
length of it to the soft golden pussy hairs that grew in tiny curling 
ringlets over her pubic mound. Nora felt little sparks of pleasure exploding 
now between her legs, and it somehow seeped into her consciousness that this 
was something wicked, and her drug-distorted mind tried desperately to 
understand why -why - it was wicked, when it made her feel warmer and 
happier and more excited than she had ever felt. 

And then it penetrated Nora's reeling mind that Jake had stripped her 
clothing off, and she realized that she stood before him with no clothes on 
at all. And that, she knew, really was wicked. Why she never even let Will, 
her own husband, her own dear husband, see her that way, and she let out a 
little cry in which shame and horror mingled, and tried to hide the little 
triangle of her sex behind her two crossed hands. 

Jake yanked at them viciously, and Nora cried out, this time in pain. "I 
want to see you," Jake hissed, as his eyes roamed lecherously over the 
voluptuous curves of her firm, heavy thighs, down over her slim legs, then 
up again to the firmly rounded globes of her milk white breasts. His hands 
roved the length of her body now, then slipped between her legs to crawl 
with lust-provoking slowness along the sensitive skin of her inner thighs. 
Nora gasped, struggling to free herself from the maddening touch of his 
stroking fingers, to cover her quivering little cunt from his evil, leering 
gaze. With a cruel, quick movement, Jake caught her slim wrists in his two 
powerful hands, twisting them brutally, until Nora winced. 

"I told you I want to see your pussy naked." Jake snarled again. "So what 
the hell did you do that for?" 

The corners of his mouth curled up in a vicious grin, and even through the 
fog of drugs that blurred her brain, he appeared to Nora as a complete 
stranger. This cruel, evil man now grasping and kneading her tender flesh so 
obscenely could hardly be the man she had trusted implicitly only the day 
before, the man she had poured out her troubles to, who had listened so 
sympathetically, who had offered her his help, along with his friendship. 
Oh, God! What had come over him? And what had come over her, that she had 
permitted him to lick her up between her legs so vilely the day before? 

Nora choked back the sob that rose in her throat and began to plead 
pitifully with Jake. "Oh, God! Please stop! For God's sake, Jake. I want you 
to stop." 

"Like hell you do," Jake snapped. "You love this. You're getting it good for 
the first time in your life and you love it!" 

"Oh, no!" Nora moaned, but the little twirls of excitement that flooded her 
stomach belied her words, and her loins began to ache with the passion she 
could not suppress. 

"You love it, baby. And I got news for you. That's only the beginning!" 

Nora recoiled, trembling, at his coarse, lewd words, yet her heart began to 
beat violently, the blood to race through her veins, as Jake's hands 
continued to rove over the voluptuous curves of her thighs and hips, as he 
slipped them around behind to cup the firm white rounds of her ass cheeks, 
to trail his forefinger down the narrow protecting valley between them. 

"Ever sucked cock, Nora?" he asked suddenly. 

The question penetrated the cloud of drugs enveloping Nora's brain, and sent 
a stab of revulsion, of shock, through her quaking body. He wasn't planning 
to make her - oh, God, no! Not that! And yet, mingled with it was a tingling 
excitement that Nora fought against with all her feeble strength. 

"Hey, Nora!" Jake repeated, his voice strident with his own inherent sadism. 
"Nora! I asked you a question. Ever suck cock?" 

"Nooooo!" she stammered. "Noooooooo!" 

"It's good, Nora. You ought to try it sometime. Like now. What say you try 
it now?" 

"NO!" Nora spat the word out this time, her eyes closed tight to shut out 
her shame, her humiliation. 

Jake appeared not to notice. "It's good, Nora," he said. "You'll like it. 
It's even better than reefers," he added. "Gives you more of a thrill." 

Nora shook her head, and tried again to protest. And yet her blurred mind 
told her that Jake was right; it would give her more of a thrill than the 
marijuana had, and she knew her now sexually aroused body could never resist 
this final degradation. She watched with a mixed feeling of excitement and 
dread as Jake pulled off his tie and shirt, unbuckled his belt and unzipped 
his fly, as he slithered out of his pants and cotton shorts. 

The sight of his huge prick springing forth like a python escaping from a 
cage sent another spasm of excitement raging through Nora and when, with a 
flick of his wrist and the wink of an eye, Jake commanded her to take it, 
she dropped to her knees in front of him, and one slim, suntanned hand 
darted out to encircle the rigid, fleshy hardness of it. "Suck it!" 

"No," Nora protested mechanically - it was wicked, something deep down 
inside her said -but the marijuana she had smoked now controlled her almost 
completely, and so she leaned forward and her tongue darted out - like a 
just released, caged bird, too - to swipe and swirl at the hugely throbbing 
tip of his nakedly skinned back cockhead. With a little moan of delight, she 
licked at the sticky white fluid oozing from the tiny, winking eye at the 
tip, swallowed it hungrily, came back for more. She paused, lifted her head, 
gasping for breath, and then saw the angry expression on Jake's face as he 
snarled, "Suck!" In a swift thrust, he shoved his throbbing member deep into 
her widely gaping mouth, while Nora gagged and fought wildly but briefly to 
expel it. As she grew used to the presence there of this alien object, new 
little pools of pleasure began to whirl around her, and she began to mouth 
Jake's penis hungrily, like a new-born infant at its mother's breast, her 
cheeks swelling and deflating like a pair of bellows. No, she thought now, 
she'd never sucked cock before, and as the short, wiry hairs that surrounded 
his huge organ grazed her lips, as his sperm-filled balls slapped heavily 
down against her chin, tiny little explosions of rising desire and passion 
were set off in her blood. 

Jake jerked his hips forward and began to fuck in and out of her widely 
ovaled mouth, sawing back and forth as stifled gasps of pleasure escaped 
from Nora's suddenly tightly clasping lips. Madly, insanely, Nora sucked on 
and on, running her tongue brazenly over the sensitive, swollen flesh of his 
cock. It was so good, she thought, and she'd never done it before, and now 
the lingering fumes she had inhaled as she smoked the marijuana a short 
while before blotted out the last vestige of restraint she might have had. 
Could she ever get enough of this heavenly plunging cock, that sank deep in 
her throat, that withdrew to sink in once again as her whole body trembled 
in a heretofore unknown ecstasy? No, Nora thought, and she was suddenly 
unbearably impatient for Jake to shoot forth his thick, milk-like sperm, to 
fill her mouth with the pungent liquid, pouring it down her throat in great 
gushing rivers while she gulped to swallow every precious drop. 

And then at last - at long last, it seemed to Nora - the moment she so 
longed for came, and 'Jake jerked his pelvis harder into her face in a wild 
spasm, his body tensing, arching, and then 'he drove deep into her mouth 
again, and his bloated balls spurted forth their thin, viscous sperm, and 
she sucked at it as hungrily as before, until her cum-hungering belly was 
satiated and full, and as Jake withdrew his now deflated penis, she sank to 
the floor, while an ecstatic joy She had never known flowed through her 
sensually exhilarated body. 

Will Tracy parked the car just behind his friend, Jake Eggar's and got out, 
as the enticing young blonde beside him popped from her side of the car. "Is 
this it?" she asked expectantly. 

"This is it. Come on." Will yanked her along the sidewalk, pulled her into 
the building behind him, and into the elevator, then down the hall to the 
door of Jake's apartment. 

He rang the bell and waited. There was no answer, and he rang again, and 
then he knocked. When still no one came, he tried the doorknob. It turned 
and the door swung open. "Well," he said, "we might as well make ourselves 
at home until he gets here." 

They sat down in the living room, facing one another, saying little. After a 
few minutes had passed, Will went over to the liquor cabinet. "Something to 
drink?" he asked. When Gerta nodded, he poured a brandy for her, another for 
himself. They drank, again in silence, and Will poured himself a second. 

He was getting impatient. What the hell had happened to Jake? And wasn't 
this a hell of a thing to do, anyway? Invite them over, knowing how damned 
important it was for Will to talk to him, and then not to show? 

He picked up a magazine, leafed through it, put it down. He lit a cigarette 
and smoked it. He tried to talk to Gerta, but could think of nothing to say. 
Anyway, he didn't want to talk to the kid - she had plenty of talents, but 
conversation wasn't one of them. His mind focused on the others, and in 
spite of his worry and anguish, his prick started in again, lurching and 
jerking the way it did the first time he had seen the girl at the airport. 
Christ, he wasn't going to be able just to sit around here, staring at the 
sex kitten all evening. Not when she sat opposite him with her legs 
blatantly spread apart that way, so that he could even see the thin little 
cleft of her pussy outlined against the tight strip of flimsy sheer nylon 
panties between her legs. He swallowed hard and turned away, picked up 
another magazine, put it down, poured another drink for each of them. 

God, his balls were aching again, his loins like cauldrons of boiling, 
bubbling oil. He'd like to fuck the kid right here in Jake's living room. 
Wouldn't that be something? 

He looked around, and caught sight of the open door to the guest room down 
the hall, the double bed inside. He :glanced at his watch, saw that it was 
still early. Jake might not be back for an hour, he told himself. Even if he 
were, there'd be plenty of time for a quickie - and he could do without the 
preliminaries. 

He got up and snatched Gerta's hand, pulling her to her feet, leading her 
down the hall. He closed the door behind them, and shoved Gerta onto the 
bed. She fell onto it, her legs hanging open over the side. The thin nylon 
crotchband of her panties had somehow slipped to one side up between her 
thighs, and the sight of her sparsely bearded little pussy, exposed to 
Will's view, sent maddening bolts of excitement swirling through him. 
Quickly, feverishly, he slipped his hands under the rounded mounds of her 
firm little buttocks, lifted her to slip her mini-skirt, along with her 
equally mini-panties, off her trembling body. In a quick, almost brutal 
gesture, he tore open her blouse, pulled off her bra, and then, as the 
sensuously curved Fourteen year old lay unresisting on the huge bed, his 
hands roamed over the soft, naked flesh of her young body, stroking her 
neck, her throat, her smooth white shoulders. He cupped a firmly rounded 
young breast in his hand, then pressed his face forward to explore her lips, 
with hot hungry lips, forcing his tongue into the warm, moist cavern of her 
pouting little ovaled mouth, to sink it deep inside. 

He pulled his head back, twisting it and smiling to ask, "Like that, kid?" 
and was answered by Gerta's passionate low moans, her soft mewls of 
pleasure. His tongue sank deep into her mouth again, teasing and 
tantalizing, and then he ran it down the narrow valley between her 
milk-white breasts. 

Gerta squirmed under the delicious sensation of his hotly licking tongue, 
then, with a convulsive, involuntary movement, spread her legs farther 
apart. Will sank back on his heels, and fixed his eyes on the thin, tight 
little cuntal slit already moist with desire, up between the girl's soft, 
smooth thighs. 

He trailed his hands over the gentle, rounded swell of her belly now, along 
the fuzzy little line of golden hair that led to the thin patch of fleece at 
the base of it. His thumbs found the soft pink edges of her cunt, pressed 
the softly hair-fringed lips apart, to display the pink little hole of her 
vaginal mouth that glistened within it to his hungrily peering eyes. The 
sight of her openly exposed little pussy, as always, sent forth maddening 
jolts of exquisite, aching pleasure that throbbed through his balls. Then, 
with a low groan of passion, he moved his head forward to bury it in the 
widespread "V" of Gerta's open loins. His tongue darted out to find her tiny 
pink clitoris, to lave it into a taut, hard little erection, flicked out 
again to snake deep into her wetly throbbing pussy. Gerta whined with 
pleasure under the older man's maddening licking of her cuntal lips, under 
the invasion of her pulsating pussy by his voraciously slithering tongue. 
And then, only moments later, as pure delight drenched her voluptuous young 
body, she began to grind and squirm her hips about, and then began to cry, 
"Ooooooh! Oooooh, God! I'm going to cuuuuum! I'm going to cuuuuuum!" 

Jesus Christ, she's hot tonight! She's cumming already! he thought gleefully 
as she writhed beneath his still hotly flicking tongue, and then he tasted 
the warm, fresh young vaginal fluid that gushed forth in her climax, to 
moisten the silken hairs of her pubis and spread down wetly over the smooth 
whiteness of her inner thighs. 

Satiated, she lay back against the white counterpane of the bed, while Will 
stared down at her prostrate body. It was his turn now. and Christ, he 
couldn't wait. With terrible urgency, he hoisted her legs onto the bed, spun 
her around so that she stretched the length of it, with the same urgency 
stripped off his clothes. 

"Oh, God!" he groaned, and then knelt, hunched over her while Gerta trailed 
her nails across his chest and sides, and then, with a little groan of her 
own encircled his huge, rigid prick with her small, cool hand, and guided it 
down to the gaping little hole between her legs. He rubbed his huge prick, 
glistening with her vaginal juices, into her throbbing cunt lips, withdrew, 
then stabbed deep into the hot, wetly pulsating little hole. 

Gerta screamed as Will's enormous cock plunged deep inside her, and then, as 
his balls began to slap against the twin cheeks of her upturned ass, she 
ground her pelvis beneath him, straining, arching her loins to meet his 
thrusts. 

He felt as if his enormous plunging prick would burst wide open, split down 
the middle, as if his aching, sperm-filled balls would explode. He stroked 
harder, grinding his pelvis into her soft, yielding flesh, battering her 
quivering little pussy. Oh, my God, he thought, I just got it in her and I'm 
cumming... I'm cumming, too! And then the torrents of creamy hot sperm 
surged from his aching balls and along the length of his prick to spurt 
wildly into the depths of the young girl's wildly receptive belly. As at 
last he withdrew his deflating penis, his body went limp with exhaustion and 
he rolled from Gerta to lie quiescent beside her. After a few minutes, the 
sound of weird wails from the room next door aroused Will from his torpor. 
He listened, puzzled. Something strange was going on. Something very strange 
indeed. He slipped from the bed, gathered up his tangled shirt and held it 
in front of him, just managing to cover his genitals, and padded out of the 
room, with Gerta on his heels. My God, he thought, I'll bet Jake's in there, 
and that he's got someone in the sack with him. Good ol' Jake, having a good 
fuck, too! A lewd smile spread across Will's face. Why not just drop in on 
his friend, catch him in the act, and see what he had to say this time! He 
beckoned to Gerta to hurry, wondering vaguely who it was that was getting 
screwed silly by his friend. 

The two paused outside the door, listening to the rapturous cries from 
within. Then Will turned the doorknob and pushed the door open a crack. 
Jesus! He was right. There was Juke, hunched over a woman, exploring her 
nakedly twisting body, running his hands over the huge, well-shaped mounds 
of her breasts, down over her voluptuously formed thighs. God, she was built 
beautifully, whoever she was; he wouldn't mind getting a piece of that 
himself. 

Watching, Will licked his lips lasciviously as Jake's tongue darted out to 
pry into the moist mouth of the woman, as his hand moved down across her 
belly to the lushly curling triangle of her pubic hair, as his fingers 
parted the golden strands to lay bare the long thin slit of her vagina. God. 
he's giving it to her good, he thought, as one finger wormed its way deep 
into the tiny, split-like hole there, plunged deep into the narrow passage, 
twisting and turning. The woman responded to Jake's lewd finger-fucking with 
screams of wild, abandoned passion, and once again he wondered who she was. 
Whoever she might be, she sure was a hot little bitch, Will thought, as he 
watched her reach eagerly out to grasp Jake's thick, virile cock, rubbing 
the foreskin back and forth, teasing him, then running one finger over the 
smooth rubbery head, tickling the parted little hole, running another finger 
along the underside of the stiff shaft. Will held his breath, then let it 
out with a low, lewd whistle. Christ, she was getting him excited, too! 

Will's balls began-to ache again, as the woman drew Jake's huge, 
blood-engorged penis towards the moist hole of her hot pink pussy, used the 
fleshy instrument to part her tender, hair-fringed cuntal lips, then eased 
it gently into the narrow sheath of her vagina. As the burgeoning instrument 
sank deep in her belly, she struggled to clasp his arching back between her 
legs, and fully exposed her now upturned buttocks, the narrow crevice 
between the twinly quivering cheeks, even the tiny, brown-ringed hole of her 
anus. 

Jake's cock sank in to the hilt now, moved in and out like a piston, while 
the woman, oblivious to everything but the crazed desire of her lust-filled 
body, writhed and fucked back beneath him in wild, uncontrolled ecstasy. She 
grasped his nude body tighter and her fingernails raked across his naked 
buttocks, leaving red welts mingled with white scratches, while the rhythm 
of the couple's lewd lovemaking crescendoed to a climax. Then the woman's 
long wail of pleasure split the air. "Aaaaaagh! I'm cumming... I'm 
cuuuuummming!" 

Jake thrust his aching, plunging cock deeper, ramming it in to the soft 
recesses of her cervix, while she jerked and thrashed hotly around beneath 
him. The woman screamed again, calling "Jake! OH, JAKE!",, and then his 
piercing scream of pleasure as he too reached climax assailed Will's ears. 
"Oh, my God! I'm cumming, too. I'M CUUUUUMMMING TOO!" 

The woman jerked convulsively as Jake sent his load of hot, sticky sperm 
shooting deep up into her belly, to mingle there with her own wetly 
exploding juices. She lay back then, her legs splayed out obscenely, as 
Jake, with a final shuddering spasm, collapsed beside her on the bed. 

There was a long moment of utter silence, a moment fraught with tension, a 
silence that could almost have been cut with a knife, as Will stared at the 
woman on the bed. Then, with a scream like that of a wounded bull, he 
recognized his wife. Nora! Oh, my God! NORA! He shook his head, trying to 
blot out the knowledge, to erase from his mind the lewd, unbelievable scene 
he had just witnessed of his own wife getting fucked half to death by their 
best friend. 

Furiously, he groped for the light switch, slammed his fist into it, 
flooding the room with the harsh yellow beams. Nora opened her eyes, 
blinked, then let out a scream of pure terror. "Oh, my God! Will!" 

"I'd like to know that the hell you're doing here getting the shit fucked 
out of you by that bastard!" Will bellowed, then strode across the room to 
yank his nakedly cringing wife to her feet. His hand slashed out, slapping 
her across the face and Nora winced and screamed in pain. "You damned little 
whore!" He slapped her again. 

Jake watched through half-closed eyes. Then as Will slapped Nora a third 
time, he asked laconically, "What's going on here?" 

Will whirled, turning on Jake. "You goddamned son of a bitch," he snarled. 
"You bastard." 

Jake pulled himself slowly to his feet. "Watch it, Will," he said. "No sense 
in using abusive language, is there?" He yawned. "Anyway, as for what Nora 
was doing here, she was obviously getting fucked." 

Will doubled his fist, ready to smash it into Jake's sneering, smirking 
face. "And what were you doing here, Will?" Jake asked. "Weren't you 
fucking, too?" 

Will's fist shot out, catching Jake on the nose. He reeled backwards, 
clapping his hand to his face. "Careful," he warned. "I don't want to have 
to defend you on an assault charge, too." 

"How about murder?" Will asked, hitting Jake again. 

"Might be difficult," Jake muttered, "but I could probably do it." His eyes 
narrowed and then, without warning, he swung on Will, sending him sprawling 
on the floor. "Down, boy, down!" he ordered as his friend, caught by 
surprise, slumped helplessly against the wall. 

Nora sank back onto the bed, her face a mask of violent fury. "Yes," she 
screamed. "I'm a whore. That's what I am. But you're the one who made me it, 
Will Tracy! YOU ARE!" She began to sob hysterically. "Oh, I stayed home and 
ran the house and took care of the children for you. And you were off, all 
the time, weren't you? Just the way you were with that little slut over 
there!" she pointed at Gerta. "Fucking her! That's what you were doing." A 
scalding tear slid down her cheek, and she brushed it away. "Well, I'm a 
whore now. And I'm going to act like one. Like the lowest kind of a whore, 
too." 

She stood up and sidled over to Jake. "Want to go upstairs?" she purred 
seductively, remembering a play she'd once seen about a brothel. 

"Sure," Jake said. "How much?" 

"For you I'll do it for nothing," Nora smiled wickedly. 

"What will you do?" 

"Anything." Nora repeated the word. "Anything." 

"I want to fuck you in the ass!" He smiled questioningly. 

Nora froze, and her blood seemed to curdle in horror. My God! She hadn't 
heard Jake correctly. He couldn't have asked to sodomize her. "I... I... " 
she stammered. 

"I want to fuck you in the ass," Jake said. "Ever done that before?" He 
grinned lewdly, repulsively at her. 

"Oh, no! No, Jake!" 

Jake ignored her and turned to Will. "Ever seen your wife fucked in the 
ass?" he asked. "No? Well, watch this, then." And in a voice of utmost 
cruelty he ordered, "Get on the bed, Nora. And kneel down, with your butt up 
in the air!" 

The sheer revulsion, the terror she felt made Nora's stomach churn, her legs 
wobble. The man was a maniac! He was going to do this vile, filthy, 
perverted thing to her. And the look on his face warned her not to resist. 
Oh, God! 

She hesitated, looking around, searching for some way out. And then she felt 
the sting of Jake's swift, cruel slap against her nakedly quivering 
buttocks. "Get!" he said. 

"NO!" 

Another swift slap. "Get! And now!" and Nora threw herself face down on the 
bed to escape his blows, her fearfully trembling backside naked and 
vulnerable now to his will. 

"Spread your legs!" One more vicious blow persuaded Nora to do as she was 
ordered. "Wider!" Jake commanded, and then took her by the ankles and forced 
her legs farther and farther apart, until Nora was sure she would split in 
two. She screamed in agony, then screamed again as Jake spread her ass 
cheeks wide with his thumbs and slowly, relentlessly wormed a finger into 
the tiny, puckered little mouth of her anus. She whimpered at the sharp, 
shooting pain as her husband's best friend gleefully probed his finger in 
and out between her open buttock cheeks, and then, 'her whimpers turned to 
sudden, strangely masochistic moans of pleasure as the pain subsided, and 
she was possessed by a marvelous growing excitement that made her tingle 
with ecstasy. 

Jake thrust a second finger into Nora's now wide-stretched rectal passage, 
spitting on them and working the two wetly back and forth up inside the 
tightly resisting rectal walls as he prepared them for the entrance of his 
swollen, throbbing prick. "Like it?" he demanded loudly. skewering her on 
his impaling digits. Nora was too terrified to answer. "Like it?" Jake 
thundered, striking still another harsh blow against her smoothly rounded 
ass cheeks. 

Nora let out a sharp scream, then sobbed, "Yes." 

"That's great," Jake said. "Just great!" And then with a triumphant grin, he 
mounted her as if she were a dog bitch in heat, guiding his thick, swollen 
shaft down towards the tight little brown-ringed opening of her anus. With a 
quick, brutal thrust, Jake forced the blunt instrument into the tiny, 
futilely clenched orifice, while Nora screamed in agony as the pain seared 
her flesh like leaping flames. 

"Ooooh God! she moaned pitifully. He was tearing her to bits back there! Her 
pain blended with her terrible feelings of guilt and shame and submission, 
and then those feelings ebbed away as a strange sexual stimulation began to 
possess her. She slowly, experimentally ground her naked ass back against 
him, meeting the forward thrust of his loins, then began to moan incessantly 
beneath him and move her buttocks back in tiny teasing circles. Oh, God, she 
thought, she had never in her wildest dreams believed herself capable of 
such a perverted act as this, and yet... and yet... there was sheet ecstatic 
bliss whirling with the pain, joy mingling with the agony. She wished she 
could understand it, but the pleasure-pain of the moment precluded letting 
her thoughts dwell on the matter, and she gave herself over completely to 
the marvelous sensation of being lewdly sodomized right in the same room 
with her own husband watching in disbelieving shock a few feet away. 

Jake's, rock hard prick speared deep into Nora's tight little rectal 
passage, pushing almost to her pelvis, and his heavy testicles slapped down 
below against her tender, sensitive cunt. Nora, almost out of her mind now 
with her tormented passion, began to moan as Jake withdrew his penis almost 
to the tip, then rammed it deep back into the wide-stretched rectal passage 
again. 

Then, she suddenly felt him jerk and thrash behind her as the pendulous sacs 
of his testicles slapping against her sent their load of churning, hot sperm 
shooting the length of his throbbing, thrusting shaft, to gush forth inside 
her. 

Oh, God!, he's cumming up in my bowels, she thought wickedly, and then, oh, 
God! I'm cumming again, too. She jerked her nakedly writhing ass cheeks 
backwards against his jerking pelvis, rocking in a rhythm with his 
convulsive spasm, while weird groans escaped her wide open mouth. A 
contentment, a joy, a pleasure of the highest degree seemed to well up 
inside her, spreading out, fulfilling her. Dimly, she felt Jake's sperm flow 
from her plundered rectal passage, sooth the crevice of her wide-spread 
buttocks as it trickled down to brush the tender, gaping lips of her moist, 
warm vagina. She felt Jake's final withdrawal, too, hazily, as if in a 
dream, as he pulled his flaccid, deflated penis from the tiny, rubbery 
passage it had invaded so precipitately. And then she rolled over on her 
back, drained of energy, limp. 

Then, she heard her husband Will's voice, cruel and savage, his words sharp 
and stinging as the lash of a whip. "If you're going to act like a whore," 
he spat at her, "your own husband might as well fuck you like one too!" 

She looked up to see his lust and hate contorted face staring straight into 
hers, realized that Will was kneeling above her, brutally parting her 
thighs. "Spread your legs!" he ordered. Nora whimpered, but tried to obey, 
and then recoiled in fear as Will began to stroke his huge cock into a 
stiff, surging rod. Now he threw himself upon her trembling body, his hips 
wedging between her legs, his pelvis grinding into her squirming, 
defenseless crotch. Then he grasped his thick, hard penis in one large hand, 
guided it to his sperm flooded wife's still moist, warm pussy, speared 
brutally against the fleshy lips there - Nora whimpered again in pain and 
fear - then parted them with a violent movement that made her scream. 
Without a thought for her, he continued his ravishment of her fearfully 
quivering cunt, plunging deep inside, his prick smashing in as though it 
were a battering ram. 

"Oh, God!" Nora screamed, and began to plead, "Don't Oh, my God, Will. Don't 
fuck me so hard, darling!" 

But her pleading only enraged Will more, and he fucked harder and farther 
within her, his pistoning cock slashing deep into her belly like a wielded 
sword, until Nora yelped with pain. "Oh, God! You're hurting me! YOU'RE 
SPLITTING ME WIDE OPEN!" 

Will arched backwards, partially withdrew his blood-engorged penis, sent it 
surging in again with another swift stroke, then flexed it deep inside her 
palpitating vagina. "You're a whore," he said. "Remember?" 

"No," Nora whined. "Oh God, no!" 

"Yes! So act like a whore. Put on a show for me! Pretend you enjoy it!" He 
stared down into her frightened face. "Pretend you enjoy it," he repeated, 
"just the way you've always pretended." 

His cruel, sadistic words were like a knife plunged into Nora's heart, 
sending a pain through her soul that made the pain in her flesh seem 
nothing. "Just the way you've always pretended!" Oh, God, he was right - he 
was right! She'd done just that - and all the time she'd thought herself a 
good, an exemplary wife. Instead, she had really been nothing but a whore 
because they always pretended too! But she hadn't been with Jake! She had 
felt real joy with her husband's best friend, real ecstasy, when Jake had 
fucked her. She had fought him, she had felt pain, but she had felt 
pleasure, too. And yet, with her own husband... ! Oh, God, what was the 
matter with her? 

She lay back with her thighs open wide, tears streaming from her eyes, as 
Will began again to thrust his hips forward wildly, fucking in and out of 
her openly defenseless cunt like some cold, impersonal machine, his enormous 
prick sliding up and down her. tight, unyielding vaginal passage as though 
he had just paid two dollars for it. Oh, God! Why couldn't she enjoy sex 
with her own husband when she had been raped - yes, raped - by Jake Eggar, 
and had thrilled to it ecstatically? She choked back her sobs. What on earth 
was the matter with her? She didn't know, she just didn't know. 

Well, if she was a whore - and she was, she told herself, she was - she 
would no longer resist Will, and she lay back, impassively, trying 
desperately to shut out thought as he continued to plunder her moisture 
flooded vagina. He ground in and out, and the pain she had felt before 
seemed to ebb away, and then, for a time she felt nothing at all. But then 
she felt the first faint stirrings of excitement, like those she had felt 
when Jake had fucked her the night before, and yes, tonight, too. They were 
fragile as butterfly wings, beating in her blood, but they became stronger, 
sending little spasms of hot, churning delight sputtering through her body. 
Unconsciously, even involuntarily, she began to rotate her hips, grinding 
her buttocks deep into the mattress, thrusting her loins forward to meet her 
husband's thrusts. And now they began to move in rhythm and a wild burst of 
pleasure exploded deep inside her. 

Her pulsating moist vagina clasped Will's plunging penis, sucked it deep 
into her belly, released it as he withdrew, sucked it again until if crashed 
heavily up against her cervix, sending overwhelming sparks of joy flowing 
through her veins. They rocked back and forth in their act of copulation, 
and Nora seemed to know nothing but the sheer, physical bliss of the moment. 

As if from a great distance sounds came to her, sounds, it seemed, of 
sucking, and then it flashed through her mind that that was just what it 
was, that Jake had his face between the Danish girl's legs and was sucking 
her pussy. She hoped that they, too, were finding the sort of happiness she 
had found. 

The sound of sucking stopped abruptly, and Nora was aroused by the sense of 
touch - someone was taking her hand and opening it. She turned to see. Jake 
beside her, realized he was curling her fingers around his own iron-stiff 
prick, and instinctively she took it, began to run her fingers along the 
sensitive under side of his swollen shaft. Gerta seemed to be there, too, 
and through what was now a tangle of arms and legs and bodies, all 
intertwined, she saw that Jake had burrowed deep into Gerta's sweet, soft 
little pussy with his long, thick finger, twisting it inside the narrow 
little passage to bring forth mewls of pleasure from the hotly aroused young 
sex kitten, and that he was now plunging deeper and deeper into the dark, 
moist cavern as he lewdly, carnally finger-fucked her to a wildly rising 
state of passion. 

Nora felt the passion mounting again in her own lust-driven body too, felt 
Will's prick flex and subside while her cunt walls tightly clung to it, 
cradled it in the sheath of her vagina, felt the beginning of her own 
orgasm, felt the gush of fluids that seeped from her vagina, to flow down, 
bathing her husband's heavily plunging cock in their warmth and wetness. She 
heard Will's groan, knew that the tension, the ache in his sperm-filled 
balls had now become unbearable, that he was responding to her own wild, 
passionate fucking in his own male way, that he, too, was ready to cum, to 
fill her open, waiting belly with his white hot sperm. 

At almost the same moment, Jake's prick began to jerk in her hand and 
flooding out over her wrist, as he, too, reached climax, and then she heard 
the little moans of Gerta's mounting excitement, her murmurs of intense 
pleasure, and then everything seemed to merge in some fantastic whirling 
vortex which lifted her irresistibly to heights of sensual passion 
heretofore unknown. It was like angelic voices singing, like the whirling of 
stars and the blending and changing of the most vibrant, beautiful colors in 
the world, it was a tingling of her flesh, a series of thrills coursing 
through her body that set her on fire, made her whole insides burn and sear 
as though the whole of her body was engulfed in the hotly consuming flames 
of endless passion. 

She felt her husband's cum-bloated balls smacking hard down against the 
upturned cheeks of her ass as his rock hard penis penetrated deep into her 
belly, smashed once more against her cervix, and as the white hot, churning 
sperm spurted out, the full length of it, to spill forth in luxurious 
profusion, she felt his furious bucking against her own thrashing body, and 
then the marvelous moment when their viscously erupting orgiastic fluids 
merged, uniting them as they had never been united before. And then the two 
collapsed, completely spent, as Jake and Gerta too fell back, weak and happy 
and above all, satisfied. Nora fell asleep then, dozing off in a state of 
pure and utter contentment, with her own husband, Will, lying beside her. 
Their friend, Jake, who had first shown her such joy, was sleeping 
peacefully nearby with the voluptuous young girl, Gerta, cradled 
possessively in his arms... 

CHAPTER TWELVE 

When Nora woke up, she was alone. She stirred, opening her eyes, wondering 
where she was. She felt a marvelous peace suffusing her battered body, knew 
that something wonderful - and something terrible, too - had happened to 
her. 

She heard voices from the living room beyond, recognized one as Will's, one 
as Jake's. And then it all came back to her - where she was, Jake's ruthless 
assault on her trembling flesh, his near rape, the obscenities he had 
subjected her to, the perversions they had committed together. And then with 
a searing clarity, she remembered Will's face when he had discovered the two 
of them at their lewd lovemaking, his cruel words forever emblazoned on her 
mind. "Whore!" he had called her. "WHORE!" 

She remembered what had followed that foul, shocking word he had applied to 
her. "Put on a show for me! Pretend you enjoy it!" Her mind went back, to 
the countless times she had done just that. Oh, God, it all came back to her 
now! 

Her nights of fear, her memories of her father and her mother together - 
"Oh, God, Sal! Don't" 

"Been giving it to everyone else, huh? And now you're plumb tuckered out!" - 
much of her life seemed to pass before her eyes in one blinding flash, the 
way it does before the eyes of a drowning person. It all came back, all 
those nights in which she had pretended to respond to her own husband. 

She had been a whore! 

But now, an immense feeling of relief welled up in her. She had been a 
whore, but she wasn't now. She had responded wholeheartedly to Will, just as 
she had to Jake. SHE WASNT A WHORE! SHE WAS A WOMAN! 

The guilt that had weighed so heavily on Nora for so long lifted like a 
burned off fog; her heart was light, her shame gone, and she lifted her head 
proudly. She had found herself at last, and she felt, in a sense, new-born. 
She was a real woman, a warm, loving sensual creature, just as Nature had 
intended. 

She wanted to find Will, to tell him, to beg him to forgive her for what she 
had done to him. Oh, not only the obscene performance with his best friend, 
Jake, - oh, dear God! Could he ever forgive that? Could any man? - but all 
she had done to him, through all those years of her marriage. He had known, 
he had seen through her, and what he had done, with Gerta, had been a 
normal, frustrated man's reaction. It had been her fault, really, not his. 

She shook her head, perplexed. A few hours before, she had considered her 
marriage over. She had vowed to herself never to see Will again, never to 
speak to him, to blot him out of her life and her thoughts. Now, all her 
anger had vanished, just as her guilt had. She knew she loved Will, that she 
wanted to be a wife to him. A real wife, now. Not... not that terrible thing 
he had called her. She took a deep breath and went out towards the library, 
looking for him. 

She felt a moment's panic as she closed the door behind her. Surely Will 
hated Jake - "Loathed and despised him" - as she had said earlier. And the 
two were together now in the room beyond her. What were they doing? Just as 
she had imagined Will dead, a few nights earlier, in her mind's eye she now 
saw Jake's crumpled body stretched out on the library floor, blood flowing 
from the wounds Will had inflicted. She covered her eyes with her hands, 
trying to hide from the horrible scene. At the library she paused, then, 
resolutely, opened the door. 

The lights were glowing, and the hi-fi played soft music. Gerta, she 
noticed, was cuddled in the corner of the couch, playing cat's cradle with a 
bit of string she'd found. Will and Jake were sitting in easy chairs, each 
with a snifter of brandy in his hand, their heads together in earnest 
conversation. Friendly conversation, too, Nora thought with a sigh of 
relief. 

They looked up as Nora entered, and Jake got to his feet. "How about a 
drink?" he asked. 

Nora nodded, too surprised to speak. Jake handed her the brandy, then 
suggested "Sit down, Nora." He pointed to his own chair. "I guess you might 
want to talk to Will." 

"Yes," she said in a low voice. 

"Gerta and I will leave you alone." He beckoned to her, and she followed him 
obediently into the next room, "Will, I... I... " Nora began, but Will 
interrupted her. 

"I was a bastard, Nora," he said wretchedly. "Calling you what I did." He 
sighed. "I was pretty upset, I guess." 

"I don't blame you," Nora said. "Will again he interrupted. 

"Jesus, honey, but you were a good fuck last night. Funny, isn't it? We've 
been married all these years, and I'm just finding out what a terrific woman 
you are." He grinned at her - the warm, friendly grin that had sold more 
insurance policies to more people than Nora cared to count - and added, "If 
it weren't so late, and if there weren't others around, I'd take you into 
the bedroom right now and screw you silly." 

Nora felt a warm glow spread through her. "It's late," she agreed, but as 
for the others - well, a foursome can be fun, too. She tossed her head 
toward the living room. "What's happened to Gerta and Jake?" 

"Nothing, yet." 

Nora looked alarmed. "What do you mean?" 

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Jake wants to marry her." 

"But she's just a kid!" 

Will grinned at her sheepishly. "That's why Jake wants to marry her," he 
said. Nora looked puzzled, and he went on to explain that they could both 
get into a lot of trouble. "There's that law, you know, about the age of 
consent. And Gerta's under that age. She's only Fourteen - well, Fourteen 
and a half. So Jake and I thought it might be a good idea for him to marry 
her. No chances of trouble, that way." 

"Getting married isn't going to make her any older," Nora pointed out. 
"She'll still be only Fourteen and a half." 

"Doesn't matter," Will said. "Not as long as she's got that little piece of 
paper in her pocket that makes it all legal." He pondered on the 
peculiarities of the law. "Seems nutty, doesn't it? But that's the way it 
is." 

He heard Jake and Gerta talking in the next room. "We figured they'd better 
get that knot tied as soon as possible, too," he added. "Not here in 
California; that's too difficult. They'll be taking off for Nevada pretty 
soon. And I guess we'd better be taking off for home." 

He helped Nora into the light coat she'd been wearing, and they went out to 
the car. He started the motor, turned the vehicle around in the driveway, 
and headed back towards their house. As he drove he glanced over at his 
wife. God, he thought, she's a voluptuous woman. He could hardly wait to get 
her in the sack again. And the lascivious little grin that played around 
Nora's mouth told him she could hardly wait, herself... maybe... just 
maybe... there really was a little bit of whore in her... God, he hoped so 
with all his heart... 


THE END
