The Fifth Year - The Second Six Months
EPOV
After the holidays things started to return to normal, everyone was back at school, Isabella and I were trying to settle into some type of playroom schedule and my mother seemed to be making the tiniest of efforts with Bella. Bella refused to allow her in our house so we either went to their house or met in public. The rest of us were fine with that arrangement, even the kids noticed that Bella would stiffen or get quiet sometimes when my mother would say something that seemed innocent but obviously wasn't. I questioned Bella about it the first few times it happened and she asked me to let it go, she would deal with it when it became too much for her. I had a feeling she was close to her breaking point and, honestly, I couldn't wait for her to put my mother in her place once and for all. As much as I wanted to see it happen I knew her well enough to know she would do it in private. I really wished I could be a fly on the wall when it happened.
It was the middle of January and god I hate the middle of January. It was time to start on the next school year's budget, including staffing and salary issues. I didn't like discussing the staffing issues at school so after making sure Bella was okay with it I invited several of the Trustees for dinner. After dinner we would go to the library to talk about the budget and staff, there was just too much gossip at the school I was sure things would get out if we held the meetings there. Chicago may be a much bigger town but in some ways Francis Parker was worse about gossip than Forks ever could be.
Ten minutes from the house I received a text from Bella letting me know that Mr. Aro had arrived and was in the kitchen with her. He oversaw the different federal programs the school participated in and was an ass. He was 32 and his father-in-law was on the Board, he had married a Parker and thought more of himself than he should have in my opinion. He must be making her uncomfortable or she wouldn't have sent the text. I noticed at the welcome dinner and the Christmas party he watched Bella more than he should have and I didn't like it. He was married she was married that should have been enough but something about the way he watched her caught my attention. He watched her as I had seen other Dom's watch her at parties and the club, he was assessing her. I couldn't come right out and ask him if he was a Dom but I was fairly certain he was and not one of the good ones. As I walked into the kitchen my suspicions were confirmed by the conversation I overheard.
"Didi, my wife, told me you have joined her group?" Bella must have had a confused look on her face because he expanded on his statement. "The one that meets the second Saturday afternoon of each month, I believe you meet in the private room of Dragon's Dungeon?"
"Yes, I met your wife last Saturday. She is a lovely woman." Bella's voice was soft, she was very uncomfortable. With his next statement I walked into the kitchen and he was standing entirely too close to her for either of ours comfort.
"I also heard you will be attending the Domme League's Black and White Ball in February. I must say I was very happily surprised to discover that you and Edward were into the lifestyle. I will have to talk to him and see if he would like to share..."
"Vincent, I am sorry to keep you waiting." I said as I entered the kitchen and he moved away from Bella looking startled. That's right motherfucker I thought, get away from my wife. "I didn't think anyone would be here yet. I have things set up in the library, lets go over your portion now since we don't need the other members for that."
I hugged Bella has I moved passed her. "Are you okay?" I whispered in her ear. She nodded. "I love you Bella. We will talk about this after everyone leaves." She nodded again. I stalked to the library. I was not going to have another James on my hands.
"Vincent I overheard the last part of your conversation with my wife." I said as I shut the door. "If you know she is also my submissive then you know how inappropriate it is to discuss things like that with her and standing as close to her as you were is an offense to her and me."
"I apologize Edward. I meant no offense to you or your wife. I know you haven't been out in the community much since moving and I was just trying to make her feel comfortable." Liar was the one word the inside my head.
"We have not had the chance to get out much since moving to Chicago but you should know that she has been my wife for a year and my submissive for over 5 years. I do not share and we do not play with other couples in any capacity. If you wish to discuss or ask any questions that involve our D/s relationship you are to talk to me not my wife."
"I truly didn't mean to offend you or her Edward." I cut him off there.
"I understand but you should know better than to say something like to her, unless you are very new to this and in that case I need to speak with your mentor." I wasn't sure his face could get any redder but if I didn't set this precedent now it could turn into a problem with him and other Dom's. "Also please respect the fact that we have 3 children in the house and they are not aware of our lifestyle."
"I thought they were from older and from your first marriage?"
"They are. They are old enough to understand just enough to ask questions. Please respect our privacy." I didn't give him a chance to answer. I pulled out the budget forms to indicate that topic of discussion was closed. The rest of the dinner was great. The kids behaved and Bella was able to give her input as a teacher, with her working at a different school the Trustees actually listened to her opinion. She was a neutral party, she had no idea how things worked at Parker and she had nothing to gain when taking one side of an argument.
When we went to the library to discuss the budgets Marcus was the one to ask about where Bella taught at. "Edward, why is she not teaching at Francis Parker?"
"She didn't apply to teach there. When I came for my interview her and the kids toured The Laboratory Schools at the University of Chicago and she fell in love with them. She never applied anyplace else and to be honest we thought it would make people uncomfortable if we worked together."
"She is brilliant and knows her literature. Did you say she has her Master's?"
"Yes, she is actually thinking of taking classes for her doctorate at the University in the fall."
"If she is ever looking for a change I would support the two of you working together and I know others members would also."
"Thank you Marcus I will let her know but I must tell you she loves The Lab Schools and so do the kids. Let's get down to business on the budget." I was morbidly hoping we would need to cut a position or two. I was ready to offer up Gianna and Chelsea as candidates to leave because they were new and they wouldn't leave me alone. With the exception of those two the other single females had backed off after meeting Bella and seeing how happy we were together, but for those two it was like adding fuel to a fire. In reality we needed to add two more teachers and Marcus again asked about Bella. I promised to mention it to her but warned him not to get his hopes up.
I found Bella curled up in a chair in our room reading a popular book about vampires. "I am surprised at you Bella, I had no idea you were into vampires?" I said as I bent down to kiss her cheek.
"I'm not but the girls in my classes have been going on about these books, there are four in the series and I am currently reading the third. They are not what I expected. The girls sit in class and talk about how he is the perfect boyfriend and they wish they had someone like him. I realize it is fiction Edward but he is very controlling with her, saying it is for her protection. The book I am reading now is the first time she starts to stand up for herself. I don't want girls thinking his behavior is okay." Bella said and she was concerned.
"Finish up the series then have a discussion in class about them. I am sure they will be glad to get away from Shakespeare for a while." She swatted my ass as I walked away from her.
"I'm sure they would. The main character is supposed to be extremely handsome and his name is Edward. He sparkles in the sun. Can you sparkle in the sun Edward?" I plucked her out of the chair and carried her to bed biting her neck in the process.
"No, but I am about to make you see stars kitten." I threw her on the bed and proceeded to make good on my statement, several times. As she snuggled next to me I ask about her conversation with Vincent before I arrived.
"It was a normal conversation until right before you arrived. How was the move? Was everyone adjusting alright? I felt like he was standing too close to me but he didn't say anything in appropriate until what you overheard."
"I told him in the library if he had any questions about that aspect of our relationship he was to ask me and to respect the fact that we have kids. If he speaks to you about it again let me know. I am not going to put up with him just because of who his wife is." Bella nodded and snuggled in closer. I informed her of the offer Marcus made and she laughed while telling me no and to go to sleep.
The next few weeks seemed to roll by. Ethan was enjoying being a docent at the Conservatory, Evan had one overnight at the Aquarium and loved it and Emily loved her shopping trip, although I think that had more to do with the boy she met there. I received a call from Paul Molina, Bella's attorney, and no formal charges would be filed against any of the women involved. The Denali's tried pushing for charges against Bella but Paul found several witnesses willing to say Tanya started it, so they only way they could charge Bella was to charge Tanya also. Her parents were not going to allow that, so everything was dropped.
Bella and I attended one of the concerts she gave me for Christmas. The Chicago Symphony was hosting Yo-Yo Ma, the cellist, along with Anthony McGill, clarinet, and Emanuel Ax, piano. The concert was fabulous, but who doesn't enjoy Yo-Yo Ma. I was a little surprised Bella liked it as much as she did, in general she loves all things classical but with music not so much. She has a few composers she likes but that's it. We were on our way out when we I saw the Denali's, I tried maneuvering Bella outside before they could see us but luck was not on our side and Carmen was stalking towards Bella.
"I can't believe you would show your face here. Do you really think these people are going to accept you?" Carmen said as she grabbed Bella's arm.
"I have no idea what you are talking about." Bella said as she wrenched her arm from Carmen's grasp. "I am not looking for any one's acceptance and definitely not from people who can't see the truth when confronted with it. I did not ruin Tanya's marriage, she did that and long before I came into the picture."
"Esme will never accept you. I have known her a long time and I know what I am talking about it. You will never fit in here I will make sure of it." Carmen spat at Bella.
"And I suppose if I was looking for Esme's acceptance or to fit in here that would bother me but since I do not need either I am fine." She turned and took my arm again. "Let's go home Edward." I pick up her cue and lead her to the car.
"I thought things were less hostile between you and my mother?" I asked Bella.
"As far as I know they are but I haven't talked to her recently. I am going to assume Carmen was speaking out of anger until Esme does or says something to make me believe what she said. I can't worry about her now. We have the case worker coming starting next week for the home study. Worrying about what they are going to think is enough for me." I picked up her hand and kissed it as I merged into traffic.
"The home study will be fine kitten. You are a great mother to the kids and they will see that come through." Bella smiled but didn't say anything. Tonight wasn't one of our nights in the playroom but that didn't mean we couldn't play a little in the bedroom. I was sure Bella needed a stress reducer and I had something good in mind for her.
After dinner while Bella was finishing in the kitchen I went to our bedroom and got ready for tonight. I pulled the restraints on the bed out to make them more accessible and changed the candles out. I also went in the bathroom and ran the bath with lavender oil we would use after. Once everything was set up I went off to retrieve my naughty girl, she was turning off the lights in the house when I walked up behind her and pulled her roughly to me chest.
"Isabella, I expect you naked in the middle of our bed in your waiting position in two minutes or I be forced to punish your fine ass." She squeaked so I pinched her nipple roughly. "No talking kitten or I will gag you before we even start." She nodded and I slapped her ass to get her moving. I finished locking up the house and setting the alarm to give her the time she needed. Five minutes later I walked into the bedroom and I would never tire of seeing her like that. Seeing her on display like that, it was obvious she was looking forward to this and she was proud to serve me. She was glorious, on her knees, legs spread as much as possible, chest out, arms locked behind her head with her head bowed, if it was possible I loved her more in moments like this. I walked to the end of the bed and slowly undressed, I could see her trying to peek without raising her head. The bed was a sleigh type but we had measured the height so I could fuck her with me standing and her lying down comfortably, it was soo worth the money to have the frame adjusted for us. I slowly stroked my cock and I saw her lick her lips.
"Look at what you have done to me kitten. Put that dirty mouth of yours to work baby." She quickly scrambled to the end of the bed and laid on her stomach as she grabbed my cock and started twirling circles around the head with her tongue before taking me all the way in.
"God I love your mouth kitten. So hot." She had flattened her tongue against my vein and was sucking harder. "Fuck baby...faster." I fisted my hand in her hair as she picked up her pace and my hips started moving. "Yes Isabella...milk my cock baby." She had hollowed out her cheeks now and I was on the edge. She reached around and grabbed my ass to hold me to her as deep as I could go and started swallowing. "Christ kitten!" I shouted as I came. After I finished she licked me clean and moved back into her position with a very satisfied smirk on her face. Well, we will just have to see how long she can keep that there. I climbed on the bed behind her and stood up.
"Arms above your head my naughty girl." I secured her hands and moved off the bed grabbing the rope attached to one of the posts. "Stay on your knees but spread your legs as much as possible. Be sure you are comfortable." Once she was comfortable I secured her legs by her ankles with the ropes. I grabbed the blindfold off the table before facing her. "I want you to enjoy this and just feel what is happening to you so I am going to blindfold you." I heard her suck in her breath. "Are we green Isabella?" I ask and she nodded her head so I secured the blindfold. I picked the vial up off the table and unscrewed the lid. I heard Isabella sniff as the scent released in the air.
"I think you are going to like this kitten." I said as I stroked her folds to be sure she was nice and wet. "Can you smell the peppermint?" I asked as I took a drop and gently rubbed it on her lower lips. She nodded and then inhaled sharply before biting her lip. "Has a warm tingling feeling doesn't it?" She nodded again and moaned softly. I placed a very small drop on her clit and she tried to get friction off my finger by moving her hips. I swatted her ass. "None of that or I will leave you here all night." She stilled instantly. I moved off the bed and to her side.
"No talking and only quiet noises, if you get to loud I will stop and then no release for my naughty slut tonight. I want you to hold off cumming as long as you can. You do not need permission to cum and you many cum more than once but hold it as long as you can. Remember Isabella I know how long you can hold it so I suggest putting some effort behind this or I will be disappointed." I took her nipple in my mouth to get it nice and hard then picked up the candle. I blew gently on her nipple. "We have talked about using this before kitten if it is too much remember your safe words." I tilted the candle so wax dribbled onto her nipple.
"Aahhh" she said and she tried to move away. I started running my hand up and down her back.
"Ssshhh Isabella, I would not hurt you. It is just wax. It is already cooling, feel how it hardens around your nipple." She moaned as I massaged her breast but avoided her nipple. "I want a verbal answer now, what color are we?"
"Green Master."
"You are sure?"
"Yes Master, I was taken off guard but it feels good."
"Good, no more talking." I said as I reached down and ran my fingers over her wet pussy again reminding her of the warmth there. I carefully dribble the wax on her other nipple. We had not removed her ring but I had been assured when I bought the candle it wasn't necessary and the metal would make the feeling more intense. She moaned again and grabbed the ropes with her hands so she could arch into it as if asking for more. I sat the candle on the table and picked up a small cooler and placed it on the bed. Her breathing had picked up and at this point she was concentrating to hold off her orgasm. "Are we still green Isabella?" She nodded as I pinched her clit and she jerked forward.
"My naughty girl is doing very good." I said as I climbed on the bed behind her. "I am proud of you Isabella." I whispered in her ear as I lubed two of my fingers and started to circle her tight pink hole. "When you cum I want you to be very vocal." She nodded and groaned as I slowly slipped inside her ass.
"Fuck you feel good." I slowly pulled almost all the way out, just my head was inside her. I put a small dab on peppermint oil on my finger and gently rubbed it on her lips as I pushed back in. I pulled out slowly. "Doesn't that feel good kitten? The warm sensation as I fill you?" I pushed back in as she whimpered and nodded. "I can feel your pussy wanting friction. It wants something inside doesn't it?" I pulled out as I pushed one finger into her and slowly rubbed her sweet spot. I felt her walls start to clamp down and I pushed my cock back into her ass as I rubbed her pussy harder and used my other hand to flick the wax off her nipple.
"Masterrrrrrrr" Isabella yelled as she ejaculated all over my hand and the bed. I stopped moving and held her to me. When her breathing was under control and she had stopped trembling I gently peeled the wax off her nipple and ring. She moaned and her head fell back against my shoulder.
"What color are we kitten?"
"Green Master. Very very green." I chuckled and ran my hand down her stomach and cupped her using feather light touches to rub her pussy. I gave her some slack in the rope around her wrists and sat back on my feet bringing her with me as I slowly started moving inside her again.
"You made a mess of our bed Isabella and are still so wet. My little slut likes being fucked in her ass, doesn't she?"
"Yes Master" she groaned out.
"How much does she like it?" I asked as I started to circle her clit.
"She loves it. Master's cock is so long...and wide...makes me feel so full...Master goes so deep." I moved harder in her and could feel her pussy spasming, trying desperately to find some friction.
"I have one more surprise for you kitten, if you think you can handle another one?" My balls had started to tighten and I could not hold off much longer.
"Yes Master...please." She panted out. I flipped open the cooler and removed the blue dildo. It was long and thick and made of soft plastic but what was special about this was the gel it was filled with that could be frozen. The cold of the frozen dildo combined with the heat of the peppermint oil should give her a very intense orgasm but I was prepared for her to blackout and had the items I would need on my nightstand if necessary. I started fucking her faster and she was moving with me trying to get any kind of friction on her pussy, she was on the edge of another orgasm. Out of the blue her ass clinched around my cock and I exploded.
"Fuck...I'm cumming Isabella." I said as I held her to me and pushed the frozen dildo in her hot pussy. She cried out instantly.
"Holy fucking hell..." she shouted as she wrapped her hands around the rope and used it as leverage to fuck herself on me and the dildo. I wrapped my arms around her so I could control and slow down her movements so she wouldn't pass out. "Massster" she moaned as she rode out her orgasm before falling back against me.
"Isabella" I whispered against her ear.
"Ummm hmmmm" she said with her eyes closed.
I chuckled as I pulled out of her and removed the dildo. "Good girl, I was hoping you wouldn't pass out on me." I untied her ankles first then her arms and laid her flat on the bed. "How are you feeling Isabella?" I asked as I worked lotion into her wrists and ankles and gave her a good rub down.
"I feel great Master, very relaxed." She sighed deeply as I picked her up, carried her to the tub and stepped in with her positioning us so she was leaning against me. "Thank you Master, you take such good care of me."
"It is my job Bella and I take it seriously. Are you able to relax now?"
"After that I don't think I can be any more relaxed and still be awake Edward. Thank you and how did you manage to sneak a new toy past me let alone get it frozen?"
"The fridge in the playroom has a small freezer section. I'm glad you liked it baby."
"Mmmm I loved it. The cold mixed with the heat of the oil, I really loved it." She was almost asleep, maybe I had relaxed her too much. We stepped out of the tub, I dried us off and carried her to bed. We had a special pad we used when we played in the bedroom and when I saw the mess on the bed I was very thankful for it. I removed it and laid Bella down, she was out. I cleaned up quickly and crawled in, pulling her to me and found sleep quickly.
The next two weeks we had a caseworker shadowing how we lived and we didn't get a warning as to when she would show up. Once we told her our schedule she may show up in the morning before we left, right after we got home or after dinner and she spent an entire Saturday with us. She was unobtrusive but it was still frustrating to never know when she would be visiting. After two weeks she let us know she would be starting the individual interviews soon and she saw know need for any more home visits. Thank god we were able to relax for a few days before the Black and White Ball.
The night of the Ball the kids gasped as Isabella and I exited our bedroom, we were wearing the exact same clothes we were married in, with the exception of her collar. We had received information before hand explaining the Ball to us since this would be our first time attending. The club we belonged to in Seattle had been pretty exclusive but this one was even more so, the Dom's were very wealthy and it showed. It also explained that there would be four new subs in attendance as well as several Dom's not currently attached to a sub.
Upon arrival we were greeted by our hostess Mistress Elizabeth and her sub Bree, she was the one that approved our paperwork as new members. She explained how things were setup and what table we would be at for dinner. As I escorted Isabella to the bar and then our table I recognized several of the faces in the crowd. I noticed two of the Board Members from Francis Parker with their sub/wife as well as Mr. Aro. What surprised me about Vincent Aro was that not only was his wife by him but also another man was standing behind him as if he was a sub also. Upon looking closer I noticed several couples had what appeared to be an additional sub. As we moved closer to Vincent I felt Isabella move her hand back so she was gripping my elbow, this was a signal we hadn't used in some time. I stopped walking and looked down at her.
"The man with Mr. Aro and his wife, I think that is Riley Skinner." I couldn't place the name and it must have shown on my face because she continued. "The middle school teacher from the Christmas party." Ah, now I know who he is.
"Have you seen him at any of your meetings?" She shook her head. "Has he tried to talk to you at school?" She shook her head again. "Ok, treat him as you would any other sub except I do not want you alone with him anywhere." She nodded and we continued on over to greet them. As it turned out Riley was actually the Aro's slave and he wasn't allowed to interact with anyone tonight. I felt Isabella relax at that piece of information. At dinner we were seated with Mistress Elizabeth and Bree, Paul Molina and his sub, Rachel, and the Aro's and Riley. The conversation flowed nicely at dinner but I caught Vincent and Riley glancing at Isabella often. The band started after dinner and I recognized the song Bella had danced to in Seattle so I asked her to dance.
After the song was over she asked to be excused to use the ladies room. On the way back to the table two of the new subs approached me asking if I was looking for a sub. One of them was fine with my explanation that my wife was my sub but the other one pushed the point asking if I was willing to take on another one. This was what I felt separated the community sometimes you had those who were looking for a committed relationship and others who were looking to get off in kinky ways. Both are fine but one group shouldn't push their ideals on the other. When I returned to the table two Dom's were asking Elizabeth about the dark haired sub with the diamond collar, was she really already spoken for or was she one of the new subs? Enough already, she was wearing my collar of gods sake. I stood up and held my hand at shoulder height for me.
"Is she this tall, ivory strapless gown, dark hair, brown eyes and wearing the diamond heart choker?" They both nodded. "She is wearing a collar why would you even ask?"
The greasy one spoke up. "We thought maybe she was new or her previous Dom was helping her tonight."
"She is collared as the choker proves and her Master does not share with anyone ever. So you need to forget about her before he gets angry."
The other stood up and he was almost as short as Isabella. "You seem to know a lot about her. How can you be sure her Dom will be angry?" Can he really be that stupid I thought?
I stood up straighter and towered over him. "Because she is my wife and you are pissing me off by not respecting her collar." The rest of the table chuckled as they huffed and walked away. Isabella passed them on her way back and quirked her eyebrow in question. I shook my head as I pulled her chair out for her as the other couples started talking about a party The Dungeon was hosting in April, a combination play/costume party that sounded as if it would be fun. We mingled for another hour, then we went home and I made love to my wife until the wee hours of the morning telling her how proud I was of her
The next month flew by and while it was busy it was also uneventful. Bella and I went to the Kodo concert she gave me tickets to and it was fascinating. Kodo is the art of Japanese drumming and neither of us had ever seen it performed. The caseworker completed her interviews for the adoption study and after compiling her report she would sit down and go over it with us then send it to the court for approval. Emily was seeing the boy she met at the mall, Justin, and she was considering asking him to her junior prom. I thought he seemed a little shifty when I met him but Bella insists he is a nice boy and to leave him alone. She wouldn't let me follow them either, even though I promised not to get caught. When I took her and the boys out to a movie that night she saw Emily and Justin and insisted we go to a different theater. I also received a lecture on how I had better treat the boys the same way when they start dating. I tried explaining it wasn't the same thing but decided to keep my mouth shut when she glanced at the boys and then told me 'red' would be the only color I saw if I didn't. Anyone who thinks the Dom has the power in a BDSM relationship is crazy and she would do it just to prove a point.
We were normally in the playroom on Wednesday nights and at least once over the weekend when the time presented itself. It was difficult to play like that with the kids around and I found myself very happy our bedroom could be set up as a mild playroom when we wanted. Ethan loved the Conservatory and wanted to continue on as a volunteer over the summer. Bella was convinced he had a girl he liked but so far he wasn't sharing that information with either of us. His friends had spent the night again and they were all very respectful to Bella. Although as they were leaving the great room we did hear one of them make a comment. "Dude it's not fair, not only do you have a hot sister but a gorgeous mom too." Emily made a face while Bella laughed. I was just glad they were nicer with their comments. Evan loved the Aquarium and had decided he wanted to play Little League Baseball in the spring, so we signed him up for that starting in April. We had dinner twice with my parents, both times at restaurants. The first dinner went well, the conversation flowed and no one lost their temper. My mother and Bella weren't friendly to each other but managed to tolerate the others company. The second dinner was a week before spring break and everything was fine until Ethan mentioned Charlie and Sue coming to stay with them while Bella and I were in Mexico.
"I thought they were staying with us while you were gone Edward?" Esme asked.
"No you offered but I told you we already had plans for Charlie and Sue to come out and do it."
"That makes no sense Edward your father and I are here we should do it. You don't need to trouble Charlie." She replied then she smirked and turned to Bella for the first time. "Doesn't that make sense Bella? I mean you don't want to inconvenience your dad do you?" I knew what she was doing, trying to make Bella look like the bad one here. Bella turned to me and placed her hand on top of mine.
"Maybe Esme is right Edward, I don't want to inconvenience my father." I couldn't believe what she was saying. She smiled before she spoke again. "I'll give him a call when we get home." I say the look on my mother's face, she thought she had won but Bella wasn't finished speaking. "I mean it is the kids' spring break too we could send them to Forks to stay with him and they could see their old friends too." The kids loved the idea and the look on my mother's face was priceless.
"No, I meant they would stay with us Bella." My mother said through gritted teeth. Bella sat her fork down and turned to my mother.
"My father has not seen us or the house since we moved. He talks to the kids' all the time and misses them, he will be the one to watch them over spring break. It can be here or in Forks but he will see them next week. I am not stupid Esme and I don't trust you. You need to drop this." Everyone looked at Bella as she calmly picked up a dessert menu and asked the kids what they wanted. My mother wisely dropped that line of conversation. When we returned home the kids got ready for bed and I told Bella to be ready for me in the playroom at 11. One of the reasons we didn't play in the playroom often was we had to wait for the kids to be asleep and even then we hid a baby monitor in our bedroom with the receiver in the playroom so we could hear if they were looking for us. So far there had not been problems.
I entered the playroom at 11:05 and there she was beautiful as ever kneeling for me. I took a riding crop off the wall as I walked to her and gave her ass a quick swat, she squeaked. "I am very proud of how you stood up for yourself tonight Isabella." She kept her head down. "You may answer."
"Thank you Master."
"Tonight is a reward for you kitten. I want you vocal about how well you like things."
"Yes Master."
"Up on the table little girl, scoot your sweet ass all the way to the end." Once she was in position I cuffed her ankle and wrist together on each side with a small length of rope so she had some movement but not much then I moved the fucking machine into position. I slowly ran my fingers through her folds spreading her juice around. "Already so wet for me kitten. Do you miss the playroom?"
"Yes Master."
"Me too baby but we are going to have some fun tonight." I said as I pinched her clit and she sucked in a breath. I opened the lube and prepared the anal plug I was going to use on her. "Tonight as a special treat" I slowly ran my fingers between her cheeks to prepare her, "I am going to fill every orifice you have." She moaned and I slowly slid the anal plug in securing it. I moved to the side of the table and took her nipple in my teeth and tugged gently.
"Master" I heard Isabella moan softly. I tugged on her nipple ring and ran my hand down her stomach and slowly circled her clit.
"Yes Isabella?"
"More...please I need more." She whined. I slapped her pussy and she jumped.
"No whining kitten. I want to reward you for tonight." I insert the dildo, locked the machine in place and start it out slowly. "You may cum when you want kitten, as many times as you want. I don't plan on stopping until I cum if we need to stop before that then safe word or use your buzzer. Can you reach the button?" She ran her fingers over buzzer button.
"Yes Master." I clicked the remote I had in my pocket and the anal plug started to vibrate. "Fuck that feels good Master."
"It is suppose to naughty girl. I think you are going to like this too." I spread her pussy lips and blew on her clit. She started squirming.
"More Master...please." She begged. I started flicking her clit with my tongue and then bit down on it gently.
"Fuck" she yelled as her hands wrapped around the rope, tensed her body and cum started dripping on to the table.
"Tsk tsk little girl," I said as I clicked off the plug. "You are making a mess on my table Isabella." I waited for her to calm down then I turned the fucking machine up a notch. I LOVED the way sloppy sex sounded, to know that something I did turned her on that much made my cock impossibly hard but I wanted her to cum at least one more time before I did. I picked up the riding crop and used it to flick her hard nipples as I clicked the plug on again.
"Ugghhh Master...good...gonna...cum..." I pulled her nipple ring the same time I lightly slapped her pussy with the crop.
"Jesus!" She shouted as she came again and I clicked off the plug. I slowly ran my hands down her arms and legs to calm her, the orgasm was strong. I stepped back to remove my clothes.
"You are so beautiful Isabella. Tied to my table...glistening with sweat...cum dripping out of your pussy." I climbed on the table and straddled her, my knees pressing against the sides of her breasts as I stroke myself. "Do you want my cock kitten?" She nodded. "How do you want my cock baby?"
"Mmmm I want to suck...ahhh...your cock good...want your cum...Mmmaster." She was getting close to cumming again and I wanted us to do it together this time.
"Open up then little girl." I said as I slid into her mouth and she instantly created a hard suction that I knew would have me blowing in less than a minute. "Fuck that feels good Isabella." She flattened her tongue against my vein and sucked harder. I braced my hands above her head and clicked the anal plug on, she moaned around my cock.
"I am so close baby. Make me cum kitten." I felt her teeth and that was all it took. "Mother fucker" I shouted as I shot my load down her throat and felt her swallowing around me. I felt her tense and start to tremble, I pulled out of her mouth and clicked the plug off. God she was gorgeous. I looked into her eyes. "Yes, cum for me my beautiful Isabella."
"Yeessss" she moaned out and closed her eyes. I moved off the table and slowly brought the fucking machine to a stop and removed it. I was slightly worried about how sore she would be tomorrow, we had never used it this long in one sitting. She gave a sigh of contentment as I uncuffed and rubbed down her muscles to relieve the tension.
"You did so good kitten." She sighed again as I sat her up and put her robe on her. "We are going to get a bath and go to bed, you can clean up in here tomorrow baby."
"Yes Master, thank you." She sounded as if she was falling asleep. I carried her to our bathroom and took the quickest bath possible, I think she feel asleep in the middle of it. I dried us off and put one of my shirts on her before climbing in bed and pulling her to me, she was dead weight. "I love you Bella." I whispered in her ear, a light snore was her response. I chuckled and drifted off.
Charlie and Sue arrived a few days later with a surprise. They had made a stop in Las Vegas to get married. Charlie looked almost afraid to tell Bella before Sue nervously spit it out and then it looked like they prepared for her wrath. She wasn't anything but happy for them. We had assumed they would reach this point one day and all Bella wanted was her father's happiness. He was one of a very few people who accepted us in the beginning and Bella had told me then if he was happy she would be happy for him no matter what.
They loved the house and the fact it had an in-laws apartment in it. Sue said it felt more like they were at home rather than visitors tip toeing around in someone else's house. The boys were full of things they wanted to show Grandpa and with the weather warming up they might be able to do some of them but I warned Charlie the wind coming off the lake could still be brutal. Emily asked Sue if they could go window shopping for prom dresses and proceeded to tell her about Justin.
I updated Charlie on how things stood with my parents and the fact they my mother still wasn't allowed in our house. If they wanted to see the kids it needed to be at their house or a neutral place. I didn't want my mother thinking she could get into the house because we were not here and I wouldn't put it passed her. I also warned him about Justin and that I was sure he was shifty and up to something but Bella didn't believe me. I wanted Charlie on my side but I didn't think that was going to happen.
"Trust me Edward, I speak from experience on this matter. The ones you think are going to be a problem never are, it is the one that you never in your wildest dreams thought would be a problem that steals her heart." He smirked at me as he said it and I could feel myself blushing as I looked down.
"OoooK, Charlie I didn't mean to..." He cut me off with his laughter as he slapped my back.
"Sometimes you are too easy to mess with Edward." I exhaled with relief. Charlie and I had never discussed my relationship with his daughter in depth and I didn't want to have that talk now. I am sure he saw my relief because he continued talking. "Edward, I'll be honest. When I first found out I came to your house prepared to kick your ass for taking advantage of my little girl. Bella stopped me by sitting on the hood of the cruiser and refusing to move. She explained that she approached you, she didn't get into details and I NEVER want to hear the details, she was about 80% sure you felt something for her but she knew she wanted you..." He chuckled and rubbed his neck. "...and Bella has never been one to shy away from getting what she wants. She also told me she was 100% sure that you would never approach her and she didn't want a lifetime of what ifs."
"She's right, the person I was then never would have approached her and it would have been the biggest mistake of my life Charlie."
"What really made me stop and think is when she asked me why I didn't trust her?" I looked at him confused and he laughed. "I know I was confused too. Then she told me how long you had been seeing each other and that she loved you. She said even if you had rejected her it would not have been a mistake because she would have had her answer. Didn't I trust her judgment enough to know what she wanted and to let her make her own mistakes. She climbed off the car and I went to your house anyway and you know the story from there but the point is I realized I do trust her, I always have and that made the two of you easier to accept. If she ended up with a broken heart she went into it with her eyes open and that was all I could ask. My question to you is, do you trust your daughter Edward?"
"Yes I do but..."
"No buts, yes or no. Do you trust Emily?"
"Yes I trust her."
"Then trust her to know her limits and make her own mistakes. Trust her to come to you when she needs help and she will when she needs it. Trust her Edward and back off before she starts to cut you out of things like this."
"Easier said then done." I said with what I am sure was a pout.
"I know believe me I know." He said and patted me on the back before rejoining the rest of the family. It wouldn't happen over night but I would back off some, baby steps I thought as I went back to spend time with my family before the trip.
Bella and I flew first class to Huatulco, Mexico. The Mexican government was starting to build it up as a tourist spot and it was considered the non-touristy version of Cancun. We were staying at the Quinta Real Resort. It was a 28 room hotel with a private beach and each room had at least a partial ocean view. The room Bella and I were in had a king size bed with a full ocean view and a private balcony with a jacuzzi I planned on putting to good use. After we were settled in the room Bella was looking over the brochures of things to do when she turned to me with an evil smirk on her face.
"We can do whatever I want right Edward? Because they have quite a bit to do and this Zipolite Beach looks like fun. It is about an hour from here, we should go tomorrow and check it out." She was being very coy about something.
"Sure, just let me look over the information and a map." Bella walked into the bathroom and I heard the shower start.
"I left it on the bed for you." She said. I picked it up and started reading, no fucking way were we going to that beach. Little minx knew exactly what she was doing when she asked me about it. I stripped off my clothes and stalked towards the shower. She was rinsing her hair when I grabbed her hands, spun her around and pushed her against the wall. I raised her hands over her head and held them with one of mine while the other went directly to her pussy.
"So you want to show everyone this pussy? The pussy that is only mine. Is that why you want to go to a nude beach Isabella?"
"No Master." She said with a shaky breath. I drive my fingers in and she was instantly on edge.
"Do not fucking cum slut. Is that it. Does my exhibitionist little slut want men on the beach leering at her?" I growled at her as I pinched her clit, hard.
"No Master, I swear I was just..." She stopped talking when I drove my cock into her roughly.
"Do you want to show off to all the women the cock that fucks you and not them? Do you want them jealousy of you?" Now it was her turn to growl.
"Fuck no Master." I slapped her ass.
"Watch your language with me little girl or no release." She whimpered.
"Sorry Master."
"Brace your hands on the wall baby." I pulled her close to me and lifted her with her legs hanging over my forearms. I wouldn't be able to support her long like this I was holding all her weight and I found myself thankful I had started working out again. "Do not cum until I give you the ok. You are fucking mine Isabella," I said as I started driving into her hard from behind. "No one looks at you but me. Mine." I growled as I went faster and circled her clit. She was moaning and whimpering.
"Please Master...please...cum...please..." I felt my balls tighten.
"Cum Isabella now." I told her and roared "MINE" as I released I felt her pussy clamp down on me.
"Yours Master" she screamed as she came all over me. I gently lowered her legs to the floor and picked up the body wash to help her finish her shower. She took the body wash and started helping me make sure I was clean when she spoke softly. "I was only joking about visiting Zipolite Master."
"I know kitten but you are mine." I said as I palmed her ass and pulled her to me. "I am not going to allow you on a nude beach. I don't want them ogling you Isabella."
"Yes Master and I don't want the woman leering at you either." She said as she washed my cock.
"Yours Isabella. He only pleases you kitten." She smiled and we stepped out of the shower for bed.
We thoroughly enjoyed Mexico. We hiked the mountains to Copalitilla Cascades and saw the waterfalls, rented bikes and rode all over town, went snorkeling and explored the nine bays but most of all we enjoyed it being just us, without all the outside worries. Our last night we were in the jacuzzi enjoying the sounds of the ocean when Bella said she had a surprised for me, when we walked into the bedroom she had candles lit and everything laid out for a massage.
"Lay on your stomach Edward I want to give you a massage."
"Thank you baby." I said as I kissed her and got on my stomach. She started at my feet and took her time working her up my body. Bella never did anything half way and this was one of the best massages I had ever had.
"I need to ask you something Edward and it is important." Something in her voice alerted me to the fact that she was nervous about this discussion.
"Mmmm Hmmm" was all I could manage.
"Roll over on your back but sit up against the headboard." Bella instructed. Once I was in position she started again with my feet.
"There is a topic we discussed a while ago but decided to shelf for the time being and I was hoping to revisit it." She was almost to my cock and my brain was going to scramble but I had no idea what she was talking about.
"We can revisit any topic baby, you know this."
"But say I kind of made a unilateral decision based on the original talk. Would that be ok?" It was not fair of her to ask me a question as she was sliding my cock in her mouth.
"Ahhh...wait, Bella wait." I said as I pulled her up to me. "Why would you make a decision if we agreed to discuss it again later?" She wiggled out of my grasp and moved so I was engulfed in her tight pussy. "Fuck kitten, that is not fair."
"Sorry I just need to be connected to you now." She circled her hips and I slipped in deeper. "When we talked I got the distinct impression that the final decision was being left up to me." She was moving slowly so we could continue to talk but I was having a hard time focusing, it felt so good being inside her.
"Then I am sure..." she slammed down on me hard and picked up her pace, "...whatever you decided is fine kitten. Bellaaaa you feel so good. I'm gonna cum baby." She moved one of my hands so I could rub her clit.
"Soo good Edward. Cum for me baby...please cum for me." She leaned in to me as she moved faster while circling her hips again the feeling was amazing. She nipped my earlobe right before she whispered, "give us a baby, baby."
I exploded immediately. "Holy fucking hell Bella, what!" I shouted as I held her to me as she rode out her orgasm and moaned out a "yes". I hugged her to me before rolling so we were on our sides facing each other. Bella had her face buried in my shoulder. "Talk to me Bella. Did you just say you are ready to have a baby." She nodded and I leaned back so I could see her face.
"Ugh, not exactly. This seemed like such a good idea a month ago but..." she looked down. "I don't want you to be mad at me" she whispered. I gave her the look to start talking. "The last time we talked about having a baby I got the impression it was mostly my decision as to when we started because you were ready to try then."
"Yes, I would say you came to the right conclusion ."
"I wanted it to be a surprise. I stopped taking my birth control last month Edward. When I said give us a baby that is what I meant. This should be my fertile time, the next few days." She was biting her lip and looking up at me apprehensively.
"The next few days are your fertile time?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure." I was instantly hard again. I kissed her hard as I rolled her onto her back and thrust into her.
"Well, I'm sure I can do better than last time. Let's make a baby. I love you Bella."
"Love you Edward." That was all I allowed her to get out before I kissed her again and kept her busy until sunrise, we could sleep on the plane.
We flew home and the kids had had a great time with Sue and Charlie. They had dinner with my parents one night and Charlie said everything went fine, no problems, no outbursts on either side. The night before they left Charlie and Bella stayed up talking, I knew she missed him along with Rose and Alice, neither of whom we heard from once we moved so I went to bed and gave Bella her time with her father.
It only took us a few days to get back into our routine. We received notice that the case worker had sent her study on to the courts with the recommendation for adoption. Now we waited to see if it was approved or not but no one anticipated any problems. We had dinner with my parents at their house and my mother was starting to get snarky with Bella again and it was pissing me off because she only did it when she thought I wouldn't see it. We received more information about the play party. The Dom's were to be in their normal attire but the subs were to be dressed in some type of slave costume and that was fine but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was missing some important piece of information about the party. It ended up not mattering as the flu made an appearance in the house and we were unable to attend, it was a miserable two weeks at the Cullen house as we all were sick to some degree.
It was the middle of May when I received a phone call at school from my father. "Edward, have you talked to Bella since her lunch with your mother?"
"Bella had lunch with mother today?" I questioned.
"Yes, Esme set it up this morning and she returned very angry. She locked herself in her study and made a phone call I think. I heard her yelling at someone."
"No, the Lab Schools have a teacher in service today so the kids are out of school, if mother contacted her at school she will probably tell me about it when I get home."
"If you can find out what happened please call me. I haven't seen Esme this angry in a while. I think Bella may have laid down an ultimatum for your mother and I can't blame her if that is what happened. She has been more than patient with her."
I ended the call promising him I would call if I found out the details of the lunch. Bella's car was in the garage when I arrived home so I was surprised not to find her in the kitchen starting dinner. I went to our bedroom and she wasn't there, I looked in every room on the main level and couldn't find her. Asking the kids got me no where, they didn't even know she was at home and they were getting hungry. I went back to the kitchen and order pizza for dinner. I saw her when I walked into the sun porch, she had pulled a lounge chair close to the water and was sitting huddled up in a blanket. Spring was making its way to us but it was still chilly in the evenings. I put money on the counter, told Emily to listen for the pizza guy, grabbed a blanket and went to see how my wife was. She didn't hear me walk up to her and it was obvious she was crying. I picked her up and sat on the lounger holding her close to me and wrapped us both up in our blankets.
We sat in silence for a few minutes before I asked her the $64,000 question. "Dad called me at work Bella. Do you want to talk about it?" She was openly sobbing now.
"I am so sorry Edward. I have no idea what came over me. Up until today I swore to myself that I would take the high road. I would take whatever she dished out and not let it get to me because I wanted you and the kids to have a relationship with her. A mother is important, she is supposed to want the best for..." She had to stop she was crying so hard. I pulled her closer and began rubbing her back.
"Ssshhh it is fine Bella. I am not sure what happened and Dad didn't know either. He just said she was angry. Can you tell me what happened?"
"I threatened her Edward. That is what it all boils down to. I threatened your mother to get her to back off." She was trying to wiggle out of my arms and I was trying to figure out what she could have threatened my mother with. "I'm sorry Edward but I didn't know what to do. Please don't be too mad at me. I won't do it again and I'm just sorry."
"Calm down Bella." I whispered to her and I kissed her hair. "I am not mad at you. You have taken enough of her shit, you know I feel this way. Start at the beginning and tell me what happened. What did you threaten her with?"
"I don't know." She said and I was thoroughly confused.
"You threatened her and you don't what with?" That made no sense.
"Yes." She simply said. "Let me explain." She relaxed into me some and I was able to hold her tighter to me, it felt as if she was going to run away. "Esme called me this morning after you left and asked me to meet her at The Four Season's for lunch and I agreed. Before I left I removed two packets from my desk in the library and took them with me. I didn't want a repeat of the last time I was there so I got a room and left word at the restaurant that when Esme arrived to have her come to the room, I ordered room service and waited." Bella was staring off at the water as if she was reliving the meeting.
"Everything was fine at first and then she started talking about how Tanya wants you back and what would it take to get rid of me. Didn't I realize it would be better for you to be with her and with her connections how far you could go and I just could not listen to her anymore. I stood up and threw one of the packets on the table and told her if she didn't shut up, get off my ass and leave my family alone I would use what was in the envelope. Then I left the room and came straight home. I have been here every since." She turned in my lap and fiercely hugged me to her.
"Please don't hate me for this. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let me temper get away from me but I am just tired of doing this with her."
"I could never hate you baby, I love you with all my heart. You have nothing to apologize for Bella, she had this coming. I am curious as to what you threatened her with that has her so angry."
"I told you Edward I don't know."
"How could you not know?"
"." She mumbled so fast I had no idea what she said.
"What was that?" I asked chuckling. She took a deep breath and blew it out.
"Dad gave me the packets when he was here to watch the kids. I know one is a copy of the other but I don't know what is in them I didn't open them." I couldn't wrap my head around what she was saying.
"I don't understand Bella."
"Dad said he put it together after Esme's outburst about him and Sue watching the kids. He gave it to me that last night before they returned to Forks. He looked into your mother Edward and told me what was in the envelope was enough to shut her up and good if I ever needed to use it." Bella stood up and walked closer to the water. "I told myself I would never read it. People make mistakes and they should be allowed to move on from them, not have them brought up all the time. I don't want to know what is in the packet Edward. I gave Esme the impression I would use what is in there against her and I feel horrible for doing that. It is not who I am Edward. Maybe I should apologize."
"No apologizing Bella." I walked to her and put my hands on her shoulders. "I have no idea what could be in there either Bella and I don't think I want to know but you have nothing to apologize for, that I do know. She made her bed you are just forcing her to lie in it and it is about time someone did." I wrapped my arms around her shoulders and sat my chin on top of her head. "I love you Bella. You are by far the best person I know, you could never do anything to make me think less of you. I am sure the pizza is here and the kids are surely wondering what we are doing, so let's go eat and we can discuss this later if you wish."
"What will you tell Carlisle?"
"I don't know yet but I will think of something."
After dinner I called Dad and explained that as far as I knew it wasn't different from any other time. He should talk to mother about why she was so angry, I couldn't think of anything else to tell him. Bella had locked the packet in the library safe. I took it out and looked at the envelope. She was right at this time I had no desire to find out what it contained, to be honest I was worried it would forever change the way I viewed my mother.
April rolled into May and before I could blink prom was here and I was watching my baby girl drive away in a car with a boy and she didn't have to be home until 9 am the next morning. Two weeks ago when Emily had mentioned one of the kids having an after party at their parents and then breakfast the next morning I almost had a coronary on the spot. Bella came home from picking Evan up from practice to Emily and I shouting at each other in the kitchen. She made us go to our corners and we weren't allowed to talk about it the rest of the night. After the kids went to bed Bella dragged me up to the playroom so she and I could hash things out, we needed the sound proof room.
"What the hell was that with Emily earlier Edward?"
"She wants to stay out all night. It's prom Bella, he wants sex - don't you see that?"
"Of course he wants sex, he is a 17 year old boy, he wants sex all the time. Didn't you at his age?"
"Yes and that is how I know he especially wants it tonight. It is like a fucking rite of passage or something."
"She is not going to sleep with him at prom and if things get out of hand she will call us to come get her." I scoffed at her.
"Right, that is exactly what will happen."
"Edward listen to yourself. You are not only insulting Emily but me as well. Don't you think I have talked to her about this?"
"You talked to her about having sex?" Now it was Bella's turn to scoff.
"Of course, do I look like an idiot?"
"So you told her sex was bad and not to do it until she is married." Bella laughed at me.
"No. Should I have told her she would go blind if she masturbates too?" I groaned at that thought.
"I do not need that image in my head Bella." She had stopped yelling at me but couldn't get her laughter under control. She hugged me from behind.
"I told her sex with the right person is amazing and it only gets better with time. I told her I had waited for the man I wanted to spend my life with to have sex. I told her I had no idea how she would feel in the morning if she had sex with Justin knowing she didn't love him yet. I told her maybe he was the one for her but maybe not and if she told him she wanted to wait and he didn't understand then he definitely wasn't the one. I told her it was her decision and one she wouldn't be able to take back once given. But most importantly I told her we trusted her and would be there for her no matter what we because we love her. You need to let her do this Edward and assure her no matter what you love her and could never think less of her." I hated when Bella was right about these things.
The next morning Emily and I sat down and worked out the details for prom night. She was overjoyed with the compromise, I felt like I was eating tree bark or something but I gave her the best smile I could muster as she hugged me.
With Mother's Day came the final adoption papers. The kids made Bella breakfast in bed, handmade cards from the heart and the papers to prove she was their mother, legally. Nothing I could give her would top that gift so I settled with taking the family out for a Mother's Day Brunch. I called my own mother to wish her a happy holiday and she was distant with me at first. I hadn't spoken to her since her fight with Bella and I think she was worried I knew things I shouldn't. She lighten up when she realized I wasn't going to bring up the argument and that reinforced my decision not to look at that packet, hopefully she would tell me on her own when she was ready.
The weather was turning nicer and the kids begged us to open the pool. It was outside but heated and they wanted to have a pool party for the end of school. When we moved in last summer Bella and I didn't get to enjoy the pool, it was late summer and with our jobs starting we just didn't have time. The kids used it a lot but we didn't get in it once. We opened the pool on Memorial Day and told the kids they could have a party the last day of school. They were each allowed to invite 6 people and in Evan's case we had to speak to parents to confirm that child could swim. I wasn't surprised Emily had a few boys in her group but I was surprised Ethan had two girls in his and one he seemed to be very interested in. Bella was wearing her one piece because Ethan's and now some of Evan's friends stared at her in that dreamy 'your mom is so hot way'. I found myself wondering if I should just talk to Evan's friends before things got out of hand.
I was walking around the pool checking to make no one was drowning when I heard Evan yell to me.
"Do a cannonball Dad." He turned to his friends, "he always makes a big splash." The other kids moved to the side of the pool, "come on Mr. Cullen show us what ya got." I had my board shorts on so I turned and pulled off my wife beater and threw it on a chair. I saw Bella's eyes go wide right before I hit the water. I surfaced and I had made a big splash, in more ways than one. As I climbed out and reached for a towel I heard one of Em's girlfriends say, "I never knew your Dad had a tattoo?"
"Neither did I," Em answered.
