"You like it? I think it will get him hard."
"And right into my bed," Carmen added.
"I don't care which bed we have him in, sweetie, as long as we share, right?"
"Of course, his cock will satisfy both of us, while the slut watches."

Following the smell of grilled chicken, Bella wandered into Seth's kitchen. She snuck up behind him and wrapped her arms around him.
"Miss me?"
"Always. Can the cook have a kiss?" Seth was being careful to keep it light between them. He was still shaken up by what had happened in the elevator.
"Sure he can." Pressing her mouth agasin his, she tried to rub her breasts against his chest.
When the kiss ended, he pushed her back to look at her, and saw she was wearing a tight tank top, short shorts, and her hair in a ponytail, showing off her body in a way she never had as a tomboy.
"I love the outfit, baby." Seth winked at her, wondering if she realized she was changing.
"Good, I never would have felt comfortable enough to wear these if you hadn't shown me how sexy I am."
"You are sexy, Bella. And you don't need me to show you that. But I'm flattered, you want to dress this way for me. Now be a good girl and set the table. The chicken is almost done and we are having company tonight."
"We are? Who?" Bella went to the cabinet to get the dishes.
Seth admired her body as she reached for the dishes before answering her. "It's someone I met at the hospital when she stopped to see a friend's sick child. We got to talking and I convinced her to come over tonight."
"And?"
"The rest is a surpise, baby, but I know you'll love it."
As she went about setting the table, Bella found it hard to control her curiousity about who Seth had invited to dinner with them. The doorbell rang and she nearly jumped out of her seat.
"Sweetheart, can you get the door?" Seth called from the kitchen.
Seth didn't want Bella to see him, but he needed to see the look on her face, so he peeked through the slit in the kitchen door. She won't be telling our kids about losing her virginity in an elevator but she'll tell them about opening this door. For the first time in his life, he realized how important memories were.
Bella opened the door, half expecting to see some woman from Seth's past but her jaw hit the floor at the woman who stood in front of her.
"Oh, my God! Alison....Alison Krauss is standing on our steps." Gasping at the presense of her favorite singer-violinist in the world, she'd forgotten her mannners.
"Hello. I'll bet you're Seth's Bella. I'm Alison, and Seth asked me to play for you." Alison held her free hand out and in her other, she held a battered up violin case. Slowly, after remembering her manners, she shook Alison's hand.
"Seth Anderson!" she yelled over her shoulder.
"Right here, baby." He placed his hands on her shoulders.
"You invited Al...Al..."
"Alison Krauss." He finished her sentence as he urged Alison to come into the house.
"To play for me?"
Alison giggled at Bella's reaction.
"Only if you move, baby, and let her in."
Realizing she was blocking the door, she moved back. "Sorry."
"It's okay. I get that more than you know. Where should I set up?"
"Down the hall, to the right is the dining room."
Alison slipped inside and down the hall, leaving Bella to come to terms with the reality of Seth's gift.
"I can't believe she's here." She turned and hugged her lover as tears welled up in her beautiful blue eyes.
"Hey I didn't mean to make you cry!"
"Oh, you goof, I can't believe you did this," she whispered as she kissed him.
After dinner, Bella cuddled with Seth as Alison finished singing "When You Say Nothing At All." With tears still in her eyes, she realized Seth had changed in the way she had hope for.
Seth followed Alison out to her car to thank her for making an appearance and thrilling his new lover.
"I can't thank you enough, Alison. You just made me some huge brownie points."
"No problem, Seth. You hang onto her. She seems like someone special."
` "Believe me, I know, and neither hell nor high water will drag me away from her."

Carmen got up to refresh her drink, as she and Lynne had been going over the plan for the last two hours, trying to get the tiniest details correct. If all went well, they would unleash hell on Isabella Carnetti and Seth Anderson would be the means of her destruction.
* * * *
Bella began to struggle against the bonds that hplding her on Seth's bed, when he began to tease her mercilessly for what seemed like hours. With the muscles of her inner thighs trembling with desire, she'd been kept on the razor's edge of her orgasm longer than she had ever experienced.
"Please, Seth! I can't take anymore teasing. I need to come!" Trying to push her wet sex against his mouth, she fumed when he pulled away.
"Patience, Isabella, you'll get what you need." His green eyes were full of cockiness but she believed him, at least until a figure appeared in the doorway. Large tits and long blonde hair, it was Carmen, and she was shaking her head.
"Keep it up, Stud, but don't let the slut come. I want her frustrated when she watches us fuck."
"Seth? Get her out of here. You love me remember?"
"Relax, Bella, this is the old Seth, not the wimp who's been courting you. I got tired of waiting for you to be what I wanted, so I went to Carmen. She'll do exactly what I want, when I want it. You're nothing more than a toy for our amusement now."
"I'm not your toy! Let me go!"
"Oh, yes you are. Every woman is Seth's toy. Your mistake was believing you could change that." Carmen laughed, filling the room with diabolical glee.
"But I don't want this." Bella struggled harder now, but the ropes weren't budging.
"You lying bitch, you're wet all the way to your knees. If you wanted him any more the sheets would be soaked!"
"Seth, please." Bella whined.
"Sorry Bella, but I belong to Carmen now."
Bella jerked awake in Seth's bed, and saw him sleeping beside her.
It was all a dream. Why can't I let go of my fears? Looking at the clock she saw it was almost four in the morning and she had to get up for work soon. Curling up beside his warm body, she fell back into a doze to catch what little sleep was left for her.
* * * *
The next evening after work, Seth had a baseball tournament, so Bella went over to her dad's house alone to make him supper.
"Pops!" she called out as she moved into the kitchen. When there was no response, she followed the sound of the TV into the den. What she saw her stopped her dead in her tracks. Heat rushed to her face as she saw her dad's girlfriend, Ellen, sitting on his lap and it was obvious, they weren't expecting company. She must have made a noise because Ellen's head came up.
"John. Your daughter's here. Stop that!"
Her father said nothing, his face buried in his girl-friend's breasts.
"Oops, sorry, Pops, Ellen." Bella backed out of the room. She had meet the woman several months ago when her dad had started dating her. He'd met her through his support group after her mother had died. Ellen was alot like her mother and had grown kids of her own. But just as she didn't want her dad intruding into her love life, she didn't want to know about his.
"Isabella, wait!" John called out as he wheeled himself around the corner, but Bella was already out the door.
"There's nothing to explain Pops. I should have realized when I saw Ellen's car in the drive that you were busy."
John rolled up next to her car. "I knew you were coming over, Bella. It was my fault. I lost track of time with Ellen. We need to talk to you. Will you please come back in?"
Bella gazed at her dad, and knew she owed it to him. Sighing, she pulled the keys out and followed her dad back into the house, where she found Ellen, in
the kitchen making coffee.
When she got back into her car an hour later her head was spinning. Ellen had asked her father to move in with her when she moved to Hawaii in two months. She wasn't sure what to think of her father leaving. Part of me wants to throw a fit about him even considering leaving me but I know he's a grown man and I'm an adult now, not a needy little girl anymore.
When Seth walked into his house, Bella was in the kitchen making dinner, and while the smell of her cooking was tempting, Bella could smell his sweaty uniform. As she bent over the oven door, he grabbed her ass and began to feel it. Since she was wearing a sun dress and not her normal jeans and t-shirt, he could slip his hands all over her lace panties.
"Dinner will be ready in a little bit but, Seth, you need to get out of that stinky uniform and jump in the shower. Right now, big boy, or you're not going to get anything from me."
Seth sensed there was more to her tension than just his sweaty condition. "Baby, are you alright?"
"I'm fine but I would like to talk to you after dinner."
When he came back downstairs, his dining room had changed. The linen table cloth his mother had given him but he'd seldom used was spread across his table. His pyrex tableware had been replaced with delicate china of which he wasn't sure of the origin. The room itself had been darkened and the table was lit by soft candlelight. The atmosphere was one of romance and the only thing out of place was him, with his old torn t-shirt and cut-offs.
"Would you mind, dressing for dinner, for me?" Bella spoke from behind him.
Turning around, he went back upstairs and came back down five minutes later wearing slacks and a silk shirt. Bella smiled and he knew he had pleased her.
Seth remembered to pull out her chair and when she sat down, he kissed her. All dinner long Seth watched her with intent eyes, barely noticing the the food he ate. Not used to seeing Bella in this light, he thought her more beautiful than ever.
"Bella, let's go away for the weekend."
"Where would we go?" She seemed excited by the invitation.
"I'll take you up to my cabin. It can be quite a romantic place. At least, I think it can."
She'd heard about the cabin, he'd inherited from his dad, but what she'd heard didn't make her think of romance. In his past, Seth had taken his buddies there to drink, and an occasional woman for a carnal weekend.
Already knowing what his answer would be, Bella still couldn't resist asking. "Whatever would we do up there all alone in the woods?"
Seth smiled and took her hand. "Well, if you're bored with me, there's a stream not half a mile from the cabin where we can go fishing."
"Fishing, well that's exciting. Why do you think I'd get bored with you?"
"I hope not, Bella, but you did ask."
"I don't think I'll be bored but I was just trying to figure out what was going on in your head. Do you plan on doing kinky things to me?"
Seth pushed back from the table and came around to kneel beside her, not caring if he dirtied his slacks. "I'd like to, very gently, in a non-threatening way, show you my desires, but I can't promise I won't get carried away.
Hmmm, carried away, it should make me uneasy but I find it more arousing than scary. "So you'll be tying me down and taking avantage of my innocence?" Bella batted her eyeslashes to add to the effect.
"Yes, but if you want to get started now, we could go upstairs and..." He didn't finish, just letting the thought lie in her head.
"Well, I know you won't hurt me, so I'm willing to let you play this weekend." Bella hugged hiim and then remembered she wanted to discuss her Pops with him
"This is off the subject. Pop's girlfriend has asked him to move to Hiawii with him. That's after I walked in on them with Pops's face buried between her breasts, and he sure wasn't looking for his glasses."
Seth chuckled a bit before touching her face, "I'm here for you, baby. Whatever your dad decides to do, I'll try to take care of you as well as he did." Now Seth knew a relationship was more than just kinky sex at the cabin or romantic dinners. Helping Bella through this hard time with her Pops would cement their relationship and give her the emotional support she needed.
* * * *
Carmen was out sunning herself on her balcony when her cell rang. It was Lynne with astounding news. She'd heard from a friend at the hospital Seth was taking Bella to his cabin this weekend. At first Carmen was pissed, as she'd been invited to the cabin twice and now he was taking his tramp there. That little slut isn't worthy of spending a weekend at Seth's cabin. As she calmed, she realized the lover's plan fit nicely in with hers and Seth's cabin was the perfect secluded spot for her revenge.
* * * *
Bella stood on her father's porch, her keys in hand. Chewing on her lower lip, she hesitated. Do I want to talk to him and Ellen about this or do I just accept Pops leaving?
"Are you going to stand there all day or come in?" Pops had just been inside the door, watching her.
"Do you want me to fix supper or is Ellen fixing it tonight?"
"Bella, I'll always want you around, and it has nothing to do with fixing me food. Now, get in here. Ellen will be here soon and I'd like to have dinner with my two favorite girls."
"Pops, I need to get this off my chest. I'm happy you've found someone, and Ellen seems like a nice lady. If you decide to go to Hawaii with her, I won't be childish about it. I love you and I want you to be happy."
"Well, sweetheart, I still don't know if I want to move. I have to consider the dojos and some day you'll have kids. I don't know if I want to be so far away. But thank you for telling me how you feel about it."
"Just let me know what you decide." She turned as they heard a car pull in next to hers, it was Ellen.
"I really want to be around to play with my grandkids. You and Seth will have some beautiful kids together."
"Kind of jumping the gun aren't we?" Chuckling, she greeted Ellen. "Good to see you again, Ellen. It seems Pops has volunteered us both for kitchen duty tonight."
"Oh, that's wonderful. The kitchen is the best place to get to know each other."
Looking up at Isabella, John saw she was uncomfortable with his comment about her and Seth's future offspring, and he wondered if his daughter knew how serious Seth was about her. However, John didn't get a chance to confront Bella on Seth as his daughter grabbed Ellen's hand and hustled her off to the kitchen.
"Come on Ellen, lets go to the kitchen."
"Of course." Ellen winked at John and mouthed the word 'patience' as she followed Bella into the house.
After dinner, John cornered his daughter in the den. "Enough of this, young lady, we're going to talk about you and Seth."
"Pops!" Bella threw a look at Ellen for possible help.
"Just listen to what your dad has to say, Bella." Ellen consuled, looking at John with a stern look.
"Bella, I guess you don't understand how committed that boy is to you. He visited me last week and in the old-fashioned way, he asked for permission to marry you, Bella."
"He what?" Bella was shocked. Oh, my god, I can't believe he actually went to my dad and asked permission. It's so embarrassing, but so sweet. He must be more serious about this than anything before in his life. "What did you tell him, Pops?"
"I told him yes, of course, but warned him he best take care of my little girl."
"Aw, Pops. I can take care of myself!" Bella wiped at the tears in her eyes. She was touched that Seth was so dedicated to her.
* * * *
Bella stood in the breakroom, looking out the window. She nearly jumped out of her skin when a pair of arms wrapped around her.
"Hmm, have I told you lately, how lovely you are?" Seth whispered into her ear.
"No but you can. Compliments are always welcome." She smiled at him. "I hear you've been talking to Pops. Anything I need to know?"
"No, I wanted his opinion on something." He tried to distract her by sucking on her ear before he worked his way down her throat.
"Seth
, you liar! You asked him for permission to marry me."
"And that's bad, why?" he retorted in defense.
"Don't you think you should've asked me first? Even though it was kind of romantic."
"I knew your dad would tell you, and I wanted you to find out from someone other than me how serious I am. Did it work?"
"Yeah, but are there any more surprises I need to worry about? You aren't planning on anything weird, are you?"
"Well, now that you mention it, close your eyes."
"This isn't going to be any of your freaky sex stuff is it?"
"No, just trust me. Just close them." He kissed her neck, breathing in her ear. "You are under my command and must do as I say."
Bella giggled. "That just might be my downfall." She closed her eyes and felt him toy with her ear and the hair around it. He must be putting something there. God I hope it's not a worm or something equally gross. She remembered a time he'd pulled pranks like that.
"Can I open my eyes?"
"Yep." He gave her neck a kiss as he answered.
Bella opened her eyes and stared at her reflection in the window.
"It's beautiful."
"Just like the woman wearing it."
" How did you know I loved tiger lilies?"
"You forget, I'm not just your lover, Bella, I'm your best friend. I know what you love." Seth thought about what his dad has said about finding out the things she liked and he basked in his newfound wisdom.
"Thank you, and before I forget, I have something for you."
"You do?"
"Yep, consider it a gift for this weekend. I left it in your office, in the top right hand drawer."
"Do I need to get it now?" I wonder what the little minx is up to now. Ever since the elevator she's been keeping me on my toes.
"No, you won't need it until this weekend, when I'm sure it will come in handy."
"Okay, you've piqued my curiousity. I bet what ever it is, has you wet. Should I check?" His hand moved, resting now on her thigh, inches away from the drawstring of her scrubs.
