One morning, when I came down to breakfast, I found the following letter on my plate-
The Nunnery, Wednesday
Dear Jack-What are you doing with yourself? Have come here for a few days, but find the place most terribly dull, only mother and Alice being here. Can't you come down for a long weekend and amuse three lonely females? I am writing at mother's suggestion. Do come.
Yours ever
MAUD
The invitation was very welcome. I was at a loose end that week, and London in July is not the pleasantest of places. Moreover The Nunnery was a charming house to visit. So promptly I wired grateful acceptance, adding that I would arrive that same afternoon by teatime.
Now allow me to introduce my reader to my dramatis personae and to the scene.
'Mother' was my old friend, Mrs Helen Bell; we were children together, and I was present at her wedding and godfather to her only child, Maud, my correspondent. Helen was scarcely seventeen when she married. Maud was born the following year, and was now twenty-two; Mrs Bell was therefore not yet forty, and was frequently taken for Maud's elder sister. She now was in her prime, a splendidly shaped woman, rather tall, slightly inclining towards embonpoint but very graceful in her movements, and very attractive. Her husband had died three years ago, and had left her a pretty place and ample means; her re-marriage had been confidently predicted but so far she had shown no desire to re-enter the wedded state.
She lived quietly and was the Lady Bountiful of the neighbourhood. She was wonderfully free of prejudices and particularly tolerant of the frailties of her own sex.
Maud, her daughter, was also a widow, her husband having died just a year ago, leaving her well provided for so long as she did not marry again and lived 'a chaste and proper life', to quote from his will. I was her trustee as well as her godfather, and it devolved on me to see that the conditions of the will were conformed to. But she was of a particularly ardent temperament-as also was her mother-and her involuntary cry of dismay when she heard her husband's will read warned me that there would be trouble unless I took care.
She was a beautiful girl, having inherited her mother's good looks together with her father's height-in fact she was unusually tall. She possessed a most voluptuous figure and loved to display it. Unlike her mother (who was a brunette) Maud was a charming blonde with a mass of golden hair and blue eyes, which fairly captivated me when after some years' absence from England I returned home just in time for her wedding, and I found myself horribly envious of the good
fellow whom she married and who thus obtained the fullest rights over her charms. On his death my duties as her trustee constantly brought us into close relations, and it was impossible for me not to note how her enforced celibacy was distressing her, while she could not but be aware of my passion for her. One day when I was nearly mad with desire after her and she had been unusually confidential, I ventured to suggest that so long as the trustee was satisfied in his capacity as such, he in his capacity as godfather and dear friend might afford her the relief she so ardently craved. She delightedly conferred on me the further appointment of lover, and as opportunities presented themselves she received in my arms the solace that her ardent feminine temperament required from time to time, the happy gratification of which tended to heighten and ripen her attractions as well as to maintain her in perfect health.
'Alice' was Mrs Bell's companion, practically her adopted daughter. Her mother was a schoolmate and dear friend of Mrs Bell and on her death the latter took charge of Alice (who was totally unprovided for) and had her educated properly. When Maud married, Mrs Bell brought Alice home as her companion. She was a charming little maiden of that almost indescribable English type that necessitates the use of adjectives such as 'sweet', 'cuddlesome', 'dainty', 'scrumptious', etc., a universal favourite and one of the accepted belles of the neighbourhood; and although she had only just turned eighteen she had received more than one good offer of marriage, all of which she had refused. Mrs Bell used to say half in fun and half in earnest that Alice was in love with me and that no one else would ever get her. I cannot say that I reciprocated the affection, but I will confess that I began to think Alice was a flower the plucking of which would be a treat for a god.
She absolutely worshipped Mrs Bell, and whatever her own private opinions and ideas might be she was ready to conform to the slightest wish Mrs Bell might express-a characteristic that will be found greatly to affect the events that I am about to relate.
Mrs Bell's residence, The Nunnery, was a comfortable old-fashioned house that stood in its own grounds some four miles from a country town. There were really two buildings, the house itself, and the wing that contained the domestic offices and the servants' rooms. The house had a ground floor and first floor; a sort of one-storeyed passage gave the servants access-so that at night the family and visitors were quite separated from the domestics, a feature that also will be found to affect my narrative. Mrs Bell's bedroom occupied the whole of one end and looked out over the grounds, and communicated with Alice's bedroom and the room generally allotted to visitors by curtained doors.
As I journeyed down I wondered whether Maud's invitation meant anything of special significance. I knew that she had told her mother of our relations, and that Mrs Bell in her broad-minded way did not object (in view of the terms of the will and knowing her daughter's erotic temperament) so long as no scandal arose. But to allow Maud and me to have each other under her own roof seemed to me too improbable to be expected.
Maud met me at the station. She was driving herself in a waggonette without a groom. My light baggage was soon put inside-I took my place beside her and we started off for The Nunnery.
When clear of the town the road began a long and somewhat steep ascent. Maud made the horse walk, then turning to me said: 'Now, Jack, I want to talk to you seriously.'
'Good Heavens! what have I done now!' I exclaimed. Maud laughed. 'It is not what you have done but what you are required to do that I want to talk about,' she replied. 'Now Jack, be a good boy and promise you'll do as we all want-all of us mind!'
'Of course I will if I can!' I rejoined gallantly. 'What is it?-anything very serious or very difficult?'
Maud shook with laughter. 'Jack, you're too funny! Yes, it is very serious and it may be difficult! I'm going to call a spade a spade as it will be the easiest and quickest way! Jack, we all-all, mind you, including Alice-want you to…have us! There!'
'What!' I exclaimed, staring at her in absolute surprise. 'Its quite true, Jack dear!' Maud replied, colouring faintly, 'that's what we want you to do. Now listen!
'I've been wanting you badly, my lover!-Oh, so badly-and I told mother that either you must come to me or I must go to you! She didn't like your having me under her own roof. I didn't want to go up to town. A sudden idea struck me. As you know, Jack, mother is still a young woman-I get my hot temperament from her, and I know how she hates her lonely bed! And she loves you, Jack! So I slipped my arm round her, and whispered coaxingly: "Look here, mummy, let us get Jack down and…share him!" She blushed like a schoolgirl. "Mummy," I again whispered-"you know you want…something…very badly, just as badly as I do!"-she quivered responsively-"Won't you let me get it for you?"-again she blushed deeply-"Come, mummy darling, share Jack with me!" And I kissed her and kept whispering to her, till she murmured, "Very well, my darling-it's sweet of you! If Jack is willing it shall be as you wish!" There, sir, what do you say?'
'I'm lost in astonishment!' I stammered-and so I was. 'Maud,' I added presently, 'you're not playing a trick on me, are you?'
'I'm telling you God's truth, Jack,' she replied, speaking now quite seriously and looking me straight in the eyes. 'You won't say no to mother, will you Jack?'
'Of course not, dear!' I replied as I placed my hand on hers-'I place myself absolutely at your disposal and hers in all honour and loyalty, and will not spare myself in your service!'
Maud looked lovingly at me and I saw her eyes were dewy. Presently she said softly, 'Thank you for what you have said, my own true lover. I am proud and happy to think that you will at my request do to mother what you have so often done so sweetly to me!' Then after a pause she added in a lighter vein, 'And you'll find your virtue brings its own reward, Jack!-for mother is a lovely woman, sir!'
I laughed. 'But what about little Alice!' I asked.
'Oh! we managed to square her without much difficulty!' Maud replied, smiling at the recollection. 'You know Jack, that Alice will do anything if mother wishes her to do it. We got her quietly the same afternoon, and told her that we both were getting very anxious about her because we could see that her stinted natural desires were beginning to affect her health and looks. She was awfully staggered. Then mother drew her on her lap and took her in her arms, kissed her tenderly and said lovingly: "My darling, my second daughter, the one man in the world we believe you love is coming down here for a few days-your Jack!" Alice blushed deeply. "If you will consent to let him put you right, Maud and I will keep you company and let him have us also, so that we can be together in my room where we can look after you! Will you consent, darling?" Poor Alice didn't know what to say-she was dreadfully taken aback! "Say yes, darling," whispered mother lovingly.
'Slowly came the answer: "If you wish it, auntie, yes!" 'Between us we hugged and kissed and soothed her, and now she's all right about it though very timid! Jack, you're going to be a lucky man!'
'Going to be!' I exclaimed, looking tenderly at her as my hand slid on to her lap and amorously pressed the region of love. 'Am I not so already, seeing that I have the run of this treasure!'-and again my hand rested over the organ of her sex. 'And as if that was not enough luck for any man, you are going to put me in possession of the finest woman and the prettiest girl in this part of the county! Maud darling, how can I ever thank you sufficiently?'
Maud laughed wickedly. 'Just keep a little bit in hand for me, darling,' she replied-'we are going to work you very hard, but don't forget my brokerage!'
I laughed. 'If there should be only one drop left in me and you want it, darling, you shall have it! Now tell me, how do you propose to work this job?-have you made out a list of hours and appointments for me as they do for stallions or am I to sit on the landing till some door opens and I am beckoned in?'
Maud laughed amusedly. 'You must arrange all that with mother after tea,' she said-'she wants a talk with you and I have arranged to take Alice off, so as to leave you together. Entre nous, Jack, I think her idea is that we shall always meet in her bedroom as soon as the house is quiet, attired only in our nighties, and there and then decide on the evening's programme.' As she spoke we drove through the gates. 'There she is…see, she has got Alice by the hand so as to make her meet you and get it over…how Alice is blushing!'
'We're delighted to see you, Jack dear!' said Mrs Bell as we alighted. 'We were so glad to get your wire saying you would come!' And she kissed me affectionately, somewhat to Maud's surprise, for this was an unusual proceeding.
'You don't know how glad I was to get out of town, Helen!' I replied as I returned her salute. 'How are you, Alice?-why, you're not looking quite yourself!' I added as I took her little hands in mine and drew her towards me-'I really must look after you!' I continued, as for the first time I kissed her virgin cheeks, now covered with blushes at what she evidently thought was a reference to the trouble alleged by Mrs Bell and Maud. They regarded her affectionately, but I could see they had difficulty in smothering a smile at my audacity and its effect on Alice.
'Show Jack to his room, Maud,' said Mrs Bell as she passed her arm lovingly round the still blushing Alice-'tea will be ready in five minutes and I expect you will want it!'
'Jack! how could you!' exclaimed Maud, choking with laughter when we reached the security of my room-'poor Alice! how a certain part of her must have tingled!'
'I couldn't help it!' I replied, as I joined in her silent mirth, 'it was a sudden inspiration, and I think a happy one!'
'Very!' she gurgled-then pressed herself amorously against me looking tenderly into my eyes. I divined her desire and whispered softly, 'Finger or tongue, darling?'
'Finger!' she murmured-'no time for the other just now, but I must have something quickly!' Promptly I dropped into an easy-chair and took her on my knees, and as my hand stole up under her clothes and travelled along her delicious legs she threw her arms round my neck, pressed her lips on mine, and parted her thighs to assist my hand which just then was searching for the slit in her drawers-which it soon found; then my eager fingers rested on the already moist lips of Maud's cunt, now throbbing and pouting with sexual excitement. Hugging me tightly to her, Maud now began to wriggle on my knees in the most divine way as she felt my finger penetrate her cunt in delicious agitation and then craftily attack her excited clitoris. 'Oh! Jack!…oh!…d-a-r-l-i-n-g!!' she gasped brokenly in blissful ecstasy-then straining me to her she ejaculated, 'I'm coming!!…I'm coming!!!…oh! finish me!!' Promptly my finger played on her clitoris. I felt an indescribable quiver pass through her-and then she inundated my happy finger with a profuse emission as her head dropped on my shoulder in her ecstatic rapture.
I allowed her to rest undisturbed by any movement on my part till she recovered from her half-swoon. As she came to herself, Maud drew a long breath, slowly raised her head-then looking lovingly at me with still humid eyes she passionately kissed me, murmuring. 'Oh! darling! that was good!' and slowly rose from off my knees. Suddenly she stooped and whispered in my ear, 'Shall I do anything to you, Jack?' at the same time placing her hand gently on the fly of my trousers. I shivered with delight at her touch and nearly yielded to temptation, but retained sufficient self-control to deny myself the sweet pleasure she was offering to me.
'No, dearie!' I said, 'I'd like it awfully, but I must reserve myself for tonight and you three!'
'Oh, you good boy!' she whispered-then after kissing me again she said in her usual voice, 'Now I'll leave you and will join you presently at tea; I can now get on well till tonight! Oh, Jack! I do hope you'll have me first!' then disappeared.
I found Mrs Bell and Alice already at the tea-table. Alice again blushed on seeing me, and I fancied that Mrs Bell looked somewhat enquiringly at me. 'Where's Maud?' she asked.
'I expected to find her here,' I replied-'she went on to her room after showing me to mine; here she comes!'
We chatted gaily. I gave them the latest news from London and they detailed the county gossip to me, for I knew many of the families. And so tea passed, and when we rose I was glad to note that Alice's shyness and restraint had disappeared.
True to her undertaking, Maud drew Alice's arm through hers and led her off into the garden, while I chatted with Mrs Bell and followed her into her own particular boudoir. As I closed the door she came towards me with open arms and love in her beautiful eyes, drew me to her and kissed me sweetly, whispering, 'Jack! it is good of you to come to the help of us poor women-but what can you think of us to ask it!'
I returned her kiss lovingly, then passed my arm round her waist and led her to a settee for two, into which we settled ourselves in delightfully close contact. 'There is only one thing I can think, Mrs Bell,' I replied softly as I looked into her eyes-'you, Maud and Alice are simply angels.'
She laughed and blushed prettily, then whispered, 'You called me Helen when you arrived-I want to continue to be Helen to you now that we are going to be so…so…intimate!' I drew her to me and tenderly kissed her, and for a moment she rested silent in my embrace.
Presently she freed herself. 'I want to talk with you, Jack-you and I have to arrange matters! Maud has told me that you will…play! Now have you anything to suggest?'
'I'd rather leave myself in your hands, Helen darling,' I said, noting delightedly her pleasure at my form of address. 'I'm sure that you and Maud have discussed matters and that you have some scheme cut and dry. And there is sweet little Alice, who is differently placed from you two-I'm sure you can arrange for her initiation better than I possibly can! But tell me, Helen, is Alice really willing to…to…surrender her maiden treasure to me?-it seems incredible!'
'She really is willing, Jack,' Mrs Bell replied; 'you have her heart and her love, Jack, and she is quite willing to let you have her body, her maidenhead! And Jack, may I say that I also love you, dear, and willingly give myself to you!' And drawing me to her she kissed me passionately.
I was very touched. 'I haven't words to say what I feel, Helen darling,' I whispered in her ear-'but may I have a chance tonight to show you how I appreciate your wonderful kindness and love!'
She blushed prettily. 'This is what I want to talk about and to arrange with you, Jack dear,' she replied softly. 'May I tell you our ideas?'
'Please do!' I answered, and drew her against me so that she could whisper-for I recognised she could whisper what she could not say in the usual way. And to indicate my recognition of the sweet intimacy into which she had now admitted me, my disengaged hand stole towards her corsage and lovingly wandered over her voluptuous bust.
Mrs Bell began. 'You know, Jack, that all the servants sleep in the domestic wing, leaving us alone in the house. They cannot see the lights in my room and they know that I sometimes read for hours after I retire-because I am alone!' she added with a blush and smile. 'By half-past ten the house is quite quiet. My idea is that instead of your visitin' us in our own rooms in turn and perhaps attracting attention by the lights, we all should meet in my bedroom, clad only in our nighties, and that you should work your sweet will on us in the presence of each other. There will then be no jealousies-things will more or less be done on the spur of the moment-and the feeling that each one is assisting the others and contributing by her presence to the piquancy of the proceedings will add zest to our pleasures. How does it strike you?-I see a smile on your lips!'
'I think your idea a most charming one,' I replied, looking fondly at her and amorously playing with the swell of her bosom-'may I confess that I know from personal experience how much the pleasure of…having a woman…is enhanced by the presence of another girl. But our case is so exceptional that I could not refrain from a smile as its peculiarities struck me!'
'In what way?' she asked, somewhat anxiously I thought. 'You will let me use plain words and not beat about the bush?' I enquired.
'Certainly, Jack,' she replied with a self-conscious smile and blush.
'Well, Helen, you and Maud are mother and daughter-not many daughters are…fucked…in the sight of their mothers, and fewer mothers still allow their daughters to watch them being fucked! Are you sure you and Maud won't mind? I shall insist on your being stark naked!'
'Quite sure!' Helen replied stoutly-but she coloured violently. I kissed her tenderly.
'It will be awfully delicious!' I said delightedly, and I felt a responsive quiver run through her.
I continued. 'Now we come to Alice. To speak plainly, she has to be ravished by me, eh Helen?'
'That's really what it amounts to, Jack,' she replied slowly, blushing deeply.
'Will she agree to be violated in public, so to speak-would she not prefer the privacy of her own room and to lose her maidenhead alone with me?'
'I don't think so, Jack,' Helen replied, looking soberly at me; 'she is very young and very timid and nervous, and really both Maud and I thought that she seemed relieved when we told her that we would be present to look after her while she was being ravished!'
'Then, Helen, I think your idea is really splendid and am ready to fall in with it. I would like to make just one suggestion-some one of us should be appointed each evening to direct the proceedings and to say what is to be done, and the others are to give implicit obedience. Deal the cards round every evening when we meet in your room, and whoever gets the ace of spades is to be the queen or king of that evening.'
'Oh, Jack! what a lovely idea!' she exclaimed delightedly-'we can make a regular revel of every meeting then!'
I kissed her. 'I have seen the game played, Helen, and I'm sure you all will love it! One question more-do we meet this evening?'
She blushed. 'We thought we might do so, Jack, if you were willing and not too tired after your long journey!'
'The prospect of seeing you in all your naked beauty, Helen, and of making you die of ecstasy in my arms would be enough to banish all fatigue did it exist, which it does not. So we will meet!' She kissed me rapturously.
'Is Alice to be…sacrificed…this evening, or do you propose that she should be saved for tomorrow, and be educated a little by the help of object lessons furnished by you and Maud tonight? What do you think, Helen?'
'We thought we would leave that to you, Jack,' she replied,-'we considered that you ought to have the right to choose.'
I drew her closely to me. 'Then we'll keep Alice for tomorrow night, darling, and I'll devote myself to you and Maud tonight. But we will make Alice show herself to us naked tonight-and as our loving pranks are sure to excite her virgin self, I must claim the privilege of affording her the relief she will crave. Now Helen dear, just one point more; will you mind if I have Maud first, and then you?'
'Of course not, Jack,' Helen replied with a smile-'I think you ought to, especially if she wishes it.'
'I'm sure she will, for she is so terribly mad with desire!' I said. 'The sight of you in my arms, quivering with ecstasy, will probably drive her wild! Besides this, Helen, it will be better for Alice to have you with her when she sees…fucking…for the first time!' (Helen kissed me rapturously).
'I'll do Maud as soon as I can arrange it-then we'll play for a bit with Alice and utilise her naked charms to excite us-and then, my darling, you and I will have a long sweet fuck!' (Again Helen kissed me rapturously.)
'I'll then dissolve the meeting-but I'll slip back to you, and we'll have a sweet time by ourselves! Now, one final kiss, and we'll join the others. Get Maud away and tell her what we have arranged-I'll entertain Alice; perhaps you'll also tell her that she is to be reserved as tomorrow night's bonne bouche-she then will be more at her ease tonight, and we'll use her to excite us. Now, Helen darling!' and after a long passionate kiss, lips on lips, we strolled into the garden. As arranged, Helen soon disappeared with Maud, leaving me with Alice, who at first was very shy and timid-but when she found that I did not touch on the topic of her sacrifice she soon regained her usual easy and charming demeanour. In due course came dinner, then cards and music-and so bedtime was comfortably and happily reached.
