Holding my hand she led me into her bedroom. She turned, stepped into my arms and gave me another kiss. After the kiss she pushed back a little and started slowly unbuttoning my shirt. I stopped her hands. "Leah are you sure? You know I have to leave. I don't want to leave and hurt you." She nodded and moved down to the next button. "I'm shur. I know you have to leave but I want to be as close to you as possible for as long as possible. I...I can't leave here. This is my home. I left once to live and work in Dublin and I can't live there. I want this very much I want as much time as possible to remember you by when you leave." This set me back on my heels. She was obviously very passionate and she was very attached to this place and her friends. I sighed, "As you wish. I've never felt anything like this. You're right we should live the time we have to the fullest." I leaned forward to kiss her as I started unbuttoning her blouse. She sighed and started working on my shirt buttons again. It took me only two buttons to realize she wasn't wearing a bra. Two more and I slipped the blouse off her shoulders. It fell down to her bent elbows. I cupped her small breasts in my hands and reveled in their softness. She moaned softly, "Oh God your hands feel good." As she slipped my shirt off my back and ran her hands around my torso. I moaned, "You feel good in my hands." I leaned closer and kissed her. I tentatively probed with my tongue and, to my surprise, she opened her mouth and sucked my tongue inside. She moved her hands down and started undoing my belt. That prompted me to finish unbuttoning her blouse. We were both gasping when we finally broke the kiss. After a few breaths I kissed down her hairline until I got to her earlobe. I sucked it into my mouth and bit down lightly. She sucked in a big breath and moaned, "Oh Sweet Jesus yes!" Encouraged I gently took her hands and twisted them behind her back. I held them with one hand as I used the other to explore her naked torso. Her head flopped back and her mouth hung open. Her breathing turned to a series of short pants with a soft moan every now and then. As I slid my hand up her bare side I moved my kisses slowly and softly down her neck. When my hand got near her breast she twisted to move her breast under my hand and stretched her neck to keep contact with my mouth. I looked up and her eyes were half closed and sort of glassy. I switched hands and started kissing my way up the other side of her neck. When I nibbled on her ear she gasped, "Please, oh please let me come. I need to come so bad." I paused a minute and whispered, "Not yet beautiful not quite yet. I'll tell you when." She panted, "I'll try Sir. I'll try my very best." I moved my kisses down onto her chest working slowly toward her breasts. With my free hand I slid it behind her and found the clasp and zipper on her skirt. I undid both and let her skirt slip to the floor sliding my hand over her bare bottom. I caught just the edge of the thong she was wearing and tugged it gently up between the cheeks of her ass. She moaned, "Oooh Please, Please Sir! I'm so close!" I whispered, "No wait until I tell you." I slipped my fingers down the crack of her ass and between her legs. She spread her legs and pushed her ass back giving me better access to her pussy. I used it and slipped two fingers under her thong and into her pussy. It was wet and hot and very slick with her juices. "Oh God, Oh God, Oh God yes. Please let me come. Please!" She pleaded with me. I took great pleasure in driving her passion until she was incoherent then I released her. I shoved three fingers up her pussy and said, "Come for me now Leah." I sucked her tit into my mouth and she shattered like a dropped glass. She screamed. "AAAAAHHH WARRRRRRRRRR." and started shaking. I barely had the strength to hold her up when her legs gave out and she collapsed. I pulled back the covers on the bed and lay her down then crawled in and cuddled beside her pulling the sheet and blankets over both of us. I enjoyed spooning with her for a minute or so. We went to sleep enjoying the warmth of the cuddle. Waking she sighed and wiggled closer to me. She sighed, "Wow kind sir, that was fantastic." I kissed her. "You're more than welcome. I've never experienced anything like that before. You were awesome." Her hand stroked my face gently. "You've earned it. I've never felt so safe with anyone as I feel with you. You make me feel loved and cherished." "You deserve to be cherished. It seems premature but I think I'm falling for you." I kissed her again and asked, "Leah, why do you keep calling me Sir?" She blushed, "Rob made me call him 'Sir' but you're nothing like Rob. With Rob I did it to keep him from whipping me . I do it with you because I respect you. It just feels right to me." I nodded and gave her a peck on the nose. "I need a shower." She smiled, "Yes Sir! Right away Sir." She wiggled out of my arms and out of bed. As she walked away I got a good look at the bruises on her back. From just below her neck down to just above her knees she had bruises and what looked like whip marks, perhaps from a belt. I followed her into the bathroom. "Leah, can you tell me where the bruises came from?" I could see tears forming in her eyes when she turned to face me. "Rob Sir, Rob gave me the bruises. He'd get mad at me ... at anything and whip me. Usually with his belt but he also has a riding crop he uses on me." I stepped forward and gently took her into my arms, whispering, "It's alright now Leah. It's alright now." She sighed, "Aye tis for at least two weeks. That is if you'll stay." I stroked her fine coppery hair and said, "Of course I'll stay if you'll let me." She turned her head up and kissed me. She wiggled out of my arms and went into the bedroom. I heard her open a drawer and then close it again. She returned and handed me a riding crop and looked at the floor. "Here is the crop he used on me. He has his belt, of course. It was his favorite to use on me." I lifted her chin so I could see her eyes and ask. "What is this for Leah?" She stared back at me. In a soft voice she said, "For you to punish me if you need to." I took her hand and led her into the living room. I sat on the couch and pulled her into my lap. "Leah why would I want to punish you? What would give me the right to punish you?" She pulled back slightly and looked at me before saying, "Och I can see you don't understand the way I was raised. The way I grew up tis the man who is in control. If I do something wrong or displease you I should be punished, corrected. All my life that has been done by a spanking or a whipping." She paused and looked deep into my eyes. "I guess what I'm sayin' is, until you leave I want you to be that man for me. I give you the right to punish me." I must have looked as stunned as I felt. She cradled my face in her hands and gave me a soft kiss. "Leah, I'm honored and floored. I'm not sure I understand but this may be the best week of my life. There is no doubt it will be the best week of my vacation. I thought this would be reserved for your husband." "Aye it usually is but Rob and I weren't even engaged and he did it without my permission. This is entirely different. I'm asking you to take charge of me. I'm surrendering myself willingly to you." She paused for a second and her eyes went blank. She looked at me again and continued. "I...I don't know why I feel this way. Tis only been so short a time I've known you but I feel safe with you. I trust you." She nuzzled against my ear and whispered. "And God that orgasm. Ooooh that was so good." I sucked gently on her ear, "Yeah that orgasm was a doozy. I'd be proud to be in charge of you. You know this is a bachelor's dream come true. To have a smart, beautiful, loving, responsive girl like you and have her willing to do whatever he wants." "Och, how many times did you kiss the blarney stone? Tis lovely to hear but tis pure blather." Trying to mimic her brogue I said, "Tis the pure and honest truth and nothing but the truth. I haven't gotten to Blarney castle yet. I got waylaid in a lovely little village by a lovelier colleen. Somehow I, think I'm not going to make it to Blarney. Enchanted and bewitched me she has." She snuggled her head down on my shoulder and whispered, "I still think it's blarney but it makes a girl feel good, it does." I held her for around ten minutes before whispering, "I think I was on my way to the shower." She sighed, "Yes Sir. T'will be my pleasure." She pulled me to my feet and led me into her bathroom and started the shower before pulling me inside. I stuttered, "Leah wh...what are you doing?" "Why giving you a shower of course." She wasn't shy at all. She started by shampooing my hair. In doing so she pressed against me with her whole body and I couldn't help but rest my hands on her lovely hips as she massaged the shampoo into my scalp. As my dick started getting hard and poking her, Leah smiled up at me. "Ooooh, you're going to make me a very happy woman with that." She spread her legs and wiggled until my cock was lodged between her legs. I swatted her lightly on the tush and replied, "And you're going to make me a very relaxed man." Still smiling she said, "Yes Sir I am. I'm going to do my very best to relax you." We finished our shower. I tried to be very gentle on her back. She was aggressive in getting me clean. My cock has never been so tenderly but thoroughly cleaned. She even ran a finger up my ass as she cleaned it. After finishing our shower and brushing teeth etc. Leah pulled me into her bedroom. She started to pull on a nightgown but I stopped her. "Leah it's a waste of time to put that on. I'm just going to peel you out of it as soon as we get under the covers." She folded it putting it on her dresser and looked up at me with a big grin. "Aye Sir. Just as you say." I got into bed but Leah hustled out the door. I mused to myself, "I wonder what that is all about?" She returned in a couple of minutes with two glasses of water and a glass of Irish whiskey for me. She sat the drinks on the nightstand and slipped under the covers. She scooted over to me and waited. I look into her eyes and softly stroked her hair before pulling her into a soft kiss. When I broke the kiss I said, "You are so beautiful. I feel like I've fallen into a dream and am being cared for by an angel." "Oooch,"she said, "More blarney. I feel like a knight in shining armor rescued me from the evil lords and dragons. You're my hero and savior." I smiled at her and answered, "Now who's spreading the blarney?" I took a sip of the whiskey and offered some to her. She took a sip and said, "Thank you sir and it's no blarney. That's how I feel. You rescued me. You rescued me from Rob. An abusive asshole he is. I'll never submit to him again." I put the glass back on the nightstand and rolled over into another kiss. She deepened the kiss and ran her soft little hand down my stomach. She gently started stroking my cock. I was hard long before she got near my cock. I thought I would explode when she wrapped her soft hand around it and started gently stroking me. I moaned, "Oh God that feels good," and started to stroke her hair. Suddenly she ducked under the covers and seconds later she wrapped her lips around the head of my dick and licked. I involuntarily arched my back driving my cock further into her mouth. She pushed herself further down my cock and swallowed. I could feel her breath blowing on my balls. She had gone all the way down on me. She slid back off my cock and heaved up to throw the covers to the foot of the bed. That done she swiveled around, crawling between my legs and sucked my cock all the way down her throat again. This time she reached out with her tongue and licked my balls. I damn near levitated off the bed at that. She continued sucking on my cock, slowly running up and down my cock. Suddenly, she shoved two fingers up my ass and started massaging my prostate. The feeling was indescribable and I kept getting hotter and hotter. She suddenly sucked my cock down her throat and swallowed repeatedly and I started to come. I came and came and came, I couldn't ever remember coming so hard. I was sweating and dizzy when I finished. She slowly and gently slid her warm wet mouth up my wilting cock, coaxing the last of my cum from it. She sat back and swallowed, licking her lips, "Yumm, you taste good. Like rich cream to a cat." I sighed back at her, "Oh God it may kill me but I'll be happy to supply my kitty with cream." She gave a big grin and slid up my body until her head rested under my chin. "Then I'll be a very happy kitty." After resting a few minutes I rolled us over saying, "My turn to see how my kitty's pussy tastes." Leah clamped her legs together and protested, "Och no Sir. I'm so dirty down there." I said, "Leah you're as clean as you can be. I washed your pussy myself, if you remember. Now open your legs. I want to taste you." "Och Sir, it's just not done." I took both of her hands and held them above her head, rose up and looked into her eyes, "Leah, obey me. Open your legs wide now and keep them open." She looked at me and said, "Yes Sir. Just as you say." I could feel her legs starting to part. She kept going until her thighs were at right angles to her body and her knees almost rested on the sheets. I leaned down and kissed her, "Good girl." I moved to kissing her ear and started slowly working my way down her neck to her body. She reacted strongly to her ear being nibbled on. I was surprised that she left her hands together over her head. By the time I got down to her chest she was panting. I started kissing between her breasts and she started to moan. "Please Sir. Please." I gently brushed her nipple with one hand as I ask, "Please what Leah?" She gasped, "Oh God. Please Sir, please more. Please make me come." I kept brushing her nipple and said, "I will but you'll have to wait until I'm ready . Can you do that? You can't come until I give you permission." "Oh God Sir, I'll try" I whispered in her ear, "You'll do more than try. Remember, you gave me control." She moaned as I started licking her other nipple. "Oh God Sir, I'll do my best." With that I started kissing and caressing the undersides of her breasts and moving slowly South to her navel and beyond. Her pleadings became more and more incoherent as I started kissing the inside of her thighs and blowing on her clit. I was shocked at the first taste of her. It was wonderful! I'd gone down on a few other girls and found the flavor quite strong and a little off-putting. Leah on the other hand tasted wonderful slightly tangy and a little spicy. While I was enjoying her taste Leah was going slightly crazy. She was moaning and occasionally 'Oh God' or 'Please' would come through her mumblings. I slipped two fingers inside her and started gently stroking her. She started trembling like she was freezing. I figured she was just about at the end of her rope so I said, "Leah come for me. Come now." I sucked on her clit and she exploded. Her hips heaved up off the bed and I thought for a second my fingers might break. I wrapped my other arm around her thigh and fastened my mouth back on her clit. I rode out her orgasm. When she finished I slowly crawled up beside her. She rolled her head toward mine on the pillow opened those beautiful green eyes and still panting she said, "Oh God that was so wonderful. I was so afraid. I've never had that done to me before. It was incredible." I sat up and look into her eyes. "You've never had a man eat your pussy before? I thought you were with Rob for years." She smiled at me with tears in her eyes. "You and Rob must be from different planets. Rob has no compunctions about having me suck his cock, both before and after fucking me but he almost blew a gasket the one time I ask him to go down on me. He said it was awful and smelled and tasted skanky. Then he whipped me for asking." "Well I think you smell and taste wonderful. I've gone down on a few girls and you are the one I've enjoyed doing that to most. I think you're wonderful. What I want to know is how you felt. What could I do to make you feel better?" She stifled a snort and answered, "Oh God, if you did that any better you might kill me." She moved closer to me and almost whispered, "I don't know what you did but I don't think I've ever been that excited, ... or been able to hold off my orgasm that long. When it hit it was wonderful." She leaned in and kissed me again and laid her head on my shoulder. We both must have dozed off. It was about half past six in the morning when I woke to find Leah snuggled up to me with her head on my shoulder and one arm wrapped around my waist, her hair lightly tickling my nose. I must have moved because she quietly said, "Good morn to you Sean." without moving a muscle. I replied, "Good morning to you lovely lass. How are you feeling this morning?" She sighed and stretched a bit then gave me a kiss. "I feel wonderful. I slept so well and I'm so relaxed." Her hand ran down my belly and she grasp my rapidly hardening cock. She sat up and asked, "May I please." Not knowing exactly what she meant I said, "Sure now you go ahead." She giggled, "Thank you kind sir." Sat up and threw her leg across me and had me balls deep in her pussy before I could even think. She sighed, "Och that's so good Sean. You're so good to me." I softly moaned, "The pleasure is more than mutual sweet girl." as she began to slowly move on my cock. I could feel the muscles of her cunt massaging my dick. God was she good. I said, "Leah I don't want you to come until I do. Do you understand?" She started moving faster and answered, "Yes Sir. I understand. I'll do my best for you." Her hands fluttered up to her breasts and she started tweaking her nipples and stretching them out and letting them go repeatedly. I slid my hands up her legs and grasp her hips as they rocked with my cock buried deep inside her. It felt heavenly. She swiveled her hips slightly as she rocked and her cunt muscles were milking my cock continually. I moved my hands up to her breasts and pushed her back just a little to change the angle my cock was entering her pussy. I could tell when I got it right. She moved her hands over mine covering her tits and she started panting. "Oh God. Oh sweet lord yes Sean. Oh yes!" I started squeezing her nipples and pulling them out like she had. It seemed to heighten her excitement. I tried to pull her closer to me but she pulled back to where my dick was hitting that spot in her pussy so I sat up and sucked one of her tits into my mouth. I was quietly losing my mind as she shook and shimmied on my cock. I don't know if she was doing it consciously but her pussy muscles were milking my cock. It wasn't long before I was moaning and on the edge of coming. I pulled back from the tit I was sucking and said, "Come for me now Leah. Now!" I sucked in her other tit and bit down on it before sucking hard as I started pumping come into her. Leah screamed, "OH GODS YES!" and started shaking like she was freezing. I released her tit and slowly leaned back pulling her on top of me. We stayed that way recovering. I enjoyed stroking her hair and back. I think she enjoyed it too. She kissed my throat with little kisses and ran her hands through my hair. After awhile she lifted her head and gave me a kiss on the mouth, rather inside my mouth. It was soft and sweet and warm. She sighed, "Sean that was so wonderful. I feel so loved and warm and relaxed. Gods you're so good." The Salmon I chuckled, "Leah you were spectacular. I've never had anyone surrendered herself to me like you just did. You can't believe how satisfied I am and how amazed I am at how responsive you are." She smiled and kissed me again, "For you Sir, only for you. I don't think I've ever been that responsive for anyone before. I've never trusted anyone this much before. Am I crazy?" I kissed her and said, "You're asking the wrong person. I'm highly biased. Not objective at all." She giggled slightly, "Yeah, I can see that. At least you're honest about it." She rolled off me and said, "Sean, we both need a bath." I groaned, "I guess you're right." and let her pull me off the bed and into the shower. After the shower she got me a glass of whiskey and she cooked us a big breakfast of scrambled eggs and kippers. She was an amazing cook as well as being beautiful and sexy. It was after breakfast that she really blew me away. She washed and I dried the dishes then she pulled me out the door. I thought we were just going for a walk. We walked around the village and she stopped at her friend, Sarah's house. She came out and handed me my rod and tackle box. "I feel bad that you really haven't had a chance to fish yet." She walked me down to the river and sat on the bank while I started fishing. I gave her a big kiss. "This is so thoughtful, thank you." She gave me a gentle shove and I turned around and started to fish. I'd been fishing for about an hour when I realized that Leah was gone. I kept fishing and actually caught two salmon, that I let go. When I released the second fish I turned around and Leah was back sitting on the bank watching me. She smiled and said, "You're never going to feed me that way, ya know." I looked up and said, "Not this year but their spawn will be back for years to come." I went over and kissed her and continued, "Besides, I didn't know how big a freezer you had. I didn't want the fish to go to waste and I sure didn't want to make the mistake of proposing to another woman by giving her a fish." Leah giggled, "No we sure wouldn't want that!" She gave me a kiss and said, "Now are you ready for some lunch." She opened the basket and started laying out a picnic. I sat down on the blanket and took the wipe she handed me to clean my hands. I watched her as she laid out the meal. She had a couple of bruises from Rob but she was amazingly beautiful and graceful. She must have realized that I was watching her because a blush started rising out of her collar. She looked at me from under her eyelashes and said, "Is something wrong Sean?" "Nothing Leah, you're just so beautiful I can't take my eyes off you." I didn't get to say anything else. She flowed into my arms and gave me a kiss that promised everything she was. She broke the kiss and said, "Shur now how did you get back to the Blarney stone again? I can tell you've recharged." I took her face in my hands and focused her on me. "Leah you are beautiful by any standards. To me you are perhaps the most beautiful woman I've ever known. Not only that you have been sweet and loving and fun to be with. From a guy's point of view you've been an angel. I mean how many girlfriends would arrange for her guy to go fishing and walk him to the river. I...I'm at a loss for words to describe how wonderful I think you are. Now kiss me again, you taste better than your meals and you are a superb cook." She didn't argue with me she moaned under her breath, "Oh Gods ..." before our kiss cut her off. When we finally broke the kiss she sat up and looked at me. She shook her head and handed me a plate with a sandwich and some pasta salad. In my other hand she put a tumbler of whiskey. We ate in companionable silence. After we finished she picked everything up while I took a nap in the sun on the blanket. She lay down beside me and waited until I woke up. She looked into my eyes and said, "Why don't you fish some more. I need to go and check on the website. It has been acting up. I'll start supper and expect you back to my house by sundown." She then kissed me again before folding the blanket and taking the picnic basket. I didn't catch any more fish but returned to her home tired, happy and relaxed. Leah met me at the door. She took my fishing tackle from me and sat me in a nice soft chair. She returned quickly with a glass of whiskey and another of water. As she slipped into my lap she asked, "How was your luck?" I took a sip of the whiskey and answered, "My luck left with the Irish angel that brought me lunch. But I had a good time anyway." I sniffed the air and said, "Supper smells delicious. Almost as good as you." She smiled and said, "Blarney," and gave me a kiss. I ask her, "How was your afternoon? Did you solve your problem?" She shook her head no. "I couldn't find the problem. It seems to come and go." I said, "Let me up to take a shower. I'll look at it after you feed me some of that wonderful smelling dinner." She gave me another kiss and slid off my lap and went into the kitchen. I went to take a badly needed shower. I shouldn't have been surprised when she slipped in with me and started soaping up my hair but I was. After a wonderful relaxed dinner I checked my email and there were a couple from my boss that had an ominous tone. He was berating me for not being available on my cell phone. I decided that I needed to protect myself so I forwarded the emails to my personal gmail account. After I'd answered my email I started checking out her website and server. I found that it looked like her hard drive was starting to fail. Leah said, "Sean what am I going to do. It will ruin us if this fails." I went to my day bag and dug out a thumb drive. "Leah, let's save your website on this. If we do that then we'll have a big leg up if it does fail. Maybe you'd go with me Monday to pick up my bags and check out of the hotel. While we're in town we'll pick up another computer and an extra hard drive for your website. Ok?" She looked at me and said, "Oh Sean that sounds good but it took me forever to get this site up and running. We'll lose a lot of business if we're down for a week or more." I took her hand. "Leah if we save this stuff it will only take an hour or maybe two to get the site back up." She looked at me. "Really?" I said, "Yeah, we'll use linux instead of windows. It'll make it a lot faster." After we finished backing up the website documents and the mysql databases we went to bed. Leah was very tense, I guess because of the website. I pulled her close and gently rubbed her back until she fell asleep. I woke the next morning feeling great. Even greater was the feeling of Leah snuggled up to me. Leah smiled and gave me a kiss before rolling out of bed to make a scrumptious breakfast. Then she took my fishing pole and took me out for another walk. This time we went down to the docks where Mike met us with his fishing boat. Leah smiled at me, "Mike's going to run us up the coast to get another hard drive or whatever we need." She gave me a quick kiss and finished, "and you can fish all the way up and back." We got to town and bought two new computers with a several extra hard drives. I took Leah and Mike to a good restaurant for lunch and we checked me out of my hotel. I managed to slip off to buy a necklace for Leah. We loaded everything back in the boat about three in the afternoon and started back. True to her word Leah sat close to me and let me fish all the way back. Of course we were going too fast to be really effective at fishing. I didn't even get a nibble. However, I did get to hold Leah all the way back and we nibbled on each other. The wind off the ocean was cold. It made snuggling even better. When we got back Leah started supper and I set the new computers out to warm up gently. The first thing I did was start downloading the latest linux OS on her existing computer. Then I went to see how Leah was doing. She had stew started but it needed some time to simmer so I pulled her into the bedroom and we took a hot shower. There is nothing like a hot shower with a lovely lady to warm you after a couple of hours of cold boat ride. After cleaning up and eating a bowl of Leah's delicious stew, I pulled her into the bedroom she used for her website office. I started setting up the new computer. I burned a linux CD off her old computer and showed her everything I was doing, in linux, setting up the new server for her website. I had her take notes on everything I did. Especially, the commands I used to configure things and the passwords. I had added the extra disks to the server and showed her how I set up the raid groups on the server. I set up a small RAID mirror group for the Operating system, a large RAID 5 group for the data and a hot spare disk for both groups. She ask me about the raid groups in great detail. I explained that the mirror on the operating system drive would protect from having a single drive failure. The RAID 5 would speed access to the data and also protect it from a single drive failure. Then I explained that the hot spare would automatically replace any one failed drive. I set up cron jobs to email reports of failed drives to her email. She went over it once explaining it to me. When I told her she had it right she smiled and gave me a kiss. "Oh this will be so much safer than my old system. Thank you." I said, "You're welcome. It's the least I could do after everything you've done for me. You've made this vacation the best one I've ever had. We're not finished yet. Now we have to set up the website and check it out." She smiled, "Yeah, but let's take a break first." I walked straight into it, I asked, "A break for what?" She sat on my lap and gave me a kiss. It was soft and sweet and she seemed to surrender herself to the moment. Not being a total fool I wrapped my arms around her and started nuzzling her ears and gently kissing her neck. She reacted by stretching her neck to give me better access. She also moaned softly, "Oh Gods that feels good. Lord what you do to me." We necked for a while and then I showed her how to transfer the contents of her website to the new computer. I put a non-routable IP address on the server and we connected my laptop to the network. There were a few glitches as we set up the Apache server but we worked through them. By eleven in the evening we had everything up and running. We shut down the old server and changed the IP address on the new one so it took over. After checking to see that the site was up and running we went to bed. The rest of my time in the village was wonderful. We got up around nine in the morning, usually after having sex. Leah cheerfully made me breakfast. After breakfast she walked me down to the river and let me fish while she worked on her website. At noon she'd show up with a picnic lunch and watch me fish for a while before going back to home to start supper. The nights were filled with passion and tenderness. When it came time to leave Mike ran the two of us into town on his boat. Parting was painful, I felt like I was cutting off an arm or something. I felt hollow inside as I stood on the dock watching as they disappeared down the estuary. Leah was in the boat looking back at me. I stood there so long I almost missed my train to Dublin. The start of my long weary journey back to home. Only it felt like I was leaving home the only thing ahead of me was my work. The Salmon I moved closer to her, "Yes I know what it means." It didn't go over the way I thought it would. Her face fell and tears started running down her face. "Oh Sean, this is so ... so ... I don't know. Sudden, unexpected. Oh Sean I can't leave here." I dropped the fish and wrapped my arms around her. "Leah...Leah, I know you'd never leave this place. I'd never try to take you from here. She looked at me and said, "But...but... Oh what do you mean?" I looked into her eyes. "I have two questions I need for you to answer will you reserve judgment until I've asked both of them?" She looked a little frightened but said, "Yes, I'll wait." I took a step back and went down on one knee. "Leah over the last year I've learned how much I love you. Will you marry me?" I held out a ring box with a beautiful ring I'd purchased in Dublin. She looked shocked and tears started leaking from her eyes. It was only about two minutes until she answered but to me it was an eternity. She nodded her head. "Sean, I love you too. It hurts to live without you. Yes I'll marry you." She took a step toward me but I stopped her. "Leah my second question is, will you give me a job? I have all the papers needed to be a guest worker in Ireland. Now all I need is a job." She burst into loud sobs and fell into my arms. "Yes you daft bugger of course I'll give you a job. Yes I'll marry you and be your wife. Oh by the Gods I love you." I scooped her up and started to carry her into the house when she said, "Don't you go forgetting my fish now." I laughed and set her down, picked up the fish and handed it to her. I picked them both up and carried them into her house. When I set her back on her feet she took the fish and put it on the kitchen counter. She turned to me and wrapped her arms around my neck and gave me a kiss that started soft but left both of us panting before she stopped. I said, "Wow," and knelt again. I took her hand and slid the ring on her finger. It had a Celtic motif that I really liked. She looked at the ring carefully and looked up at me quizzically. "It's beautiful Sean. Do you know the story behind it?" I shook my head and said, "No all I know is that it was the prettiest thing I know other than the girl who is wearing it." Her eyes went wide, she smiled and said, "You could have been here a month ago if you hadn't spent so much time with the Blarney Stone. Sean it's lovely. ..." She started to say something else but we were interrupted by a knock on the door. It was Sarah. Leah practically dragged her into the house and they started chattering like magpies. I swear Leah's hand was filled with helium it seemed to float at about head height. After a while Sarah turned to me and asked, "How did you know Sean?" Totally at a loss I asked, "Know what Sarah? What Leah?" They looked at each other with wide eyes. Finally, Leah asked me, "Sean, which church do you want to be married in?" Puzzled I answered, "I sort of assumed that it would be Catholic, being in this part of Ireland. I really don't care. I haven't been to church in years. This may be a disappointment to you but I don't plan to start going after we marry, at least until we have children and I have to be a good example." Leah and Sarah both laughed and hugged each other. Leah turned to me. "Sean this ring is a Celtic knot ring a symbol of the ancient Druids. This village has a deep dark secret. Maybe you've noticed that there is no church of any faith in the village?" I said, "I haven't really looked. I just assumed that the village was too small to support a church and that you went somewhere else on Sunday to worship. Why?" Leah came over and sat in my lap. "Sean I don't want to frighten you off but the village secret is that we are all druids. That is our religion. That's why we are usually so standoffish with strangers." I drew back a bit. "Sooo...What kind rituals do I have to participate in? Can I become a druid or will I be an outsider? Do I have to dance naked under the full moon?" Leah gave me a small kiss, "Yeah Sean, you'll be expected to dance naked under the full moon and then to make love to me on the grass by the river or up under the trees. That's as wild as our rituals get. The worst part is when you'll have to be stationed as a lookout." She gave me another kiss and watched my eyes. I smiled at her. "By God I've always wanted to dance naked under the full moon. Howl at it too. What's with the lookouts? That doesn't seem like much fun." Leah and Sarah looked at each other and Leah said, "The lookouts are to keep our secret from getting out. It's not much fun for them but no one gets it twice in a row and their wives make it up to them the next day. You see the dancing goes on for three or four days." Suddenly it clicked why I didn't get any email from Leah those four days last June. This time I kissed Leah. "In that case count me in. All the way in." I considered and asked, "What about the government? I can stay for a year at a time on a work visa but I'd sort of hoped that we could get married and I wouldn't have to fiddle with that every year." Sarah said, "No problem. Just wait six months or so and go to Carndonagh and have a civil ceremony at the courthouse. That's what we all do. After all we don't want them snooping around because of all the children and no marriages. That's usually what the Protestants do so they think that's what we all are." I smiled, "That's a load off my mind." I took Leah by the hand and pulled her into the kitchen. She and Sarah talked while she cleaned the salmon. Leah cut off two generous steaks and started marinating them for supper. I turned to Sarah and hammed it up, "Could you be a darling girl, and take the rest of this off to be smoked like last time?" She grinned and said, "Shur, I'd be proud to help." I said, "Thanks, and you can spread the gossip around the village so we don't have anyone else disturbing our privacy." She blushed bright red. I gave her a hug. "Thanks, Sarah I really need to be alone with Leah for a while. Oh, by the way. The boat anchored just off the mouth of the river is mine. I'll be down to fetch it sometime later today. Would you spread that around so no one disturbs her?" Sarah nodded. "Yeah, I'll be glad to." Leah said, "What did you name your boat Sean? Ya know, 'tis bad luck to have an un-named boat, right?" I smiled at her, "I named her after you. She's 'The Irish Angel' but she isn't half as pretty as you." Leah replied, "Blarney," but she grinned as she ushered Sarah out the door. They talked for about five minutes before Leah came back in and locked the door. She turned to me with a smile and a twinkle in her eyes. "Now Sean what do we need privacy for?" I gave her a kiss and started unbuttoning her blouse. "Well angel, since I'm going to be expected to dance naked under the moon I thought some practice would be in order. Especially at making love to you." I kissed her again as I finished with the last button and slipped the blouse off her shoulders. I was glad again that she didn't wearing a bra. "Well now this isn't outside. I don't know how much practice it'll be," she teased. Emulating her brogue a bit I said, "Tis just an excuse to get you naked don't cha know." She started working on the buttons on my shirt. "You don't have to worry Sean. For you I'm a pushover, a shur thing. I'm crazy insane in love with you. Are you sure you didn't know we were druids? I mean you come here with a druid wedding proposal and a druid wedding ring. Tell me the truth now." "Leah, you yourself told me that giving a woman a fish was an old, you said old not ancient or druid, marriage proposal. The ring I bought because I really liked the design. The jeweler in Dublin said it was a version of the Celtic knot he called it the Lovers knot. I swear I didn't have a clue. However, I'm very happy because I don't have much faith in the Christian religions. They all seem too corrupt." She sighed, "I guess you're right. It just seems like too much of a coincidence sometimes. This fish is bigger than the one you caught last year." I kissed her. "If you remember the fish last year caught me. Now that, to me, is a sign from the Gods that I should be here with you. I'm just sorry that it took almost a year for me to realize it. I never want to leave you again." I looked up and there were tears running down her face. "Och I'd think it was more Blarney but the gods help me, I feel the same way. I haven't been whole since you've left and now I'm whole again. I feel so good when you're here I can barely stay in my skin." I wiped some tears off her cheeks. "And a lovely skin it is." I wrapped my arms around her. "How about you give me a shower and we take a nap. I got up very early this morning and I really want to snuggle with you." "Aye if that's what you want. I'd love to shower and snuggle with you. It's been so long. I want to feel you with every pore of my body." She unzipped her skirt and let it fall, holding her hand out to me. She tenderly washed me and let me wash her then we dried each other and went to bed. She spooned up to me and I whispered, "I'd forgotten how wonderful it feels to hold you. Every night I'd toss and turn thinking about you and missing you. I was so afraid you'd be taken when I came back." She sniffed back a tear. "Oh I missed you too. So much I ached. I lived for your daily emails. They are the only things that kept me going. It feels so good to have you holding me again. You and your blarney make me feel so good. All is right now. You needn't have worried, I couldn't even think of another man since you showed up last year." I nuzzled her ear and asked, "Can you tell me about a druid marriage ceremony? What's involved?" She giggled and said, "Och you have a very good feel for it. You sent Sarah to tell everybody that we are going to be married." "And?" She turned in my arms. "Sean we are married as far as the druids are concerned. You offered me a fish, a great honking fish it was. I accepted. We're married. Sending Sarah to spread the word is just icing on the cake." I was a little stunned. "That's it? I proposed, you accepted and we're married?" She kissed me. "Yah that's it for us druids. Tisn't very complicated. We're officially on our honeymoon." She kissed me again and I felt my nether regions stir as blood was drained away from the big head. Leah wrapped her top leg around me and pulled me into her pussy. "Welcome home my love," she said before she kissed me again. I rolled her over and said, "Home, yes it feels like home when I'm here with you." I kissed her on her ear and inhaled her sweet fragrance. She groaned softly, "Och that's so good. You remembered after the whole year. Ooooh, you haven't lost your touch." I didn't say anything but continued kissing slowly down her neck while I softly stroked her hair. Leah moaned softly into my mouth and started to stroke my sides and slid her hand between us and gently caressed my cock. "Och God Sean it's been so long"she whispered. "Yes, it has Leah. Way too long." I moved my kisses and my hands to her breasts, being slow and soft. Leah squirmed around until she could kiss my chest and lick my nipples. She started gently pulling herself down my body kissing and caressing as she went. I tried to mirror her actions and then started leading. As I started caressing her inner thighs she started doing the same to me. When I started kissing her pussy and she started sucking my cock. We made slow soft love until we peaked together. Then we fell asleep still entwined with each other. Just before I drifted off I asked, "Leah, you all use 'God' and 'Jesus' when you're speaking. I thought there were many gods for the druids. Why do you do that?" She murmured in my ear, "Tis protective coloration. We're taught from an early age to generalize to 'God' or 'Jesus' instead of using our god's names. Tis just protective coloration to fit in with the rest of the country." The next morning we woke together and took a shower. Luckily or more realistically because Leah knew what was coming she made sure we were dressed. I was fat dumb and happy when we headed to the kitchen. As soon as we entered the living room we were jumped by the village. Mike, Ian and Ralph, in an act of deja vu, grabbed me as Sarah and two other married ladies grabbed Leah and hustled us out the house. I was blindfolded and rushed around the village for what seemed like hours and finally out onto the verge of the river. When we turned to the right and up the hill into the kissing forest. We wandered around for a long while. When we finally stopped, Mike said, "Now you need to find Leah. You can't talk to her and she can't call to you either. All the women of the village are out here. You can only touch Leah and she can't see you or talk either. Understand Yank?" I nodded and whispered, "Yes" I don't know what I'm going to do but I'm going to give it my best shot. Mike raises his voice, "Ok we're coming up." He takes one arm and someone else takes the other they run me a little ways and spin me around three or four times then stop. Mike says, "Forward and find your mate." I take two steps forward and then stop and listen and breathe in the air. Sniffing like an animal I slowly start moving forward stopping to listen. Off slightly to the right I hear breathing so I move sideways and catch a faint smell of fish. I realize that this isn't Leah. We haven't had breakfast but we did brush our teeth before going to make breakfast. I move a little further to the right and hear another woman breathing. I can tell just from the sound that this isn't Leah either. I move back to my left counting steps and then I encounter more breathing then I smell a slight scent. Suddenly I realize that this is Sarah. I smile and wave at her as I move back to the right and further in. I almost run into the next woman again alerted by her scent. It pops into my head that the women are lined up in a V shape and it hits me that Leah must be at the apex of the formation. Moving with more certainty, I move carefully encountering women more frequently until realize that Leah is directly ahead of me. I can hear her breathing and smell the shampoo and soap we used this morning but under all that I smell Leah. She's been sweating a bit and that adds to my certainty. I reach for about where her face should be and slowly kiss her lips. There is no doubt this is Leah. "I whisper, "I love you girl" and start to wrap my arms around her when I run into the trunk of a large tree. Wondering why she isn't hugging me I start to explore and find she is tied around the tree with her arms held to her sides. I feel the rope and find a slip knot. I quickly untie it. As soon as her arms are free she wraps them around me. "Oh God you are so wonderful. How did you find me so quickly? Oh Sean I love you too." She reached up and pulled the blindfold off my eyes. I did the same for her. She is a glorious sight. We are standing in a ray of sunshine at the base of the tree and the sun is shining in her hair surrounding her face like a halo. I kissed her again before Mike pulled me away. "Yeah Yank, how did you find her so fast? I stumbled around for nearly two bloody hours before I found my Sarah., Mike grumbled. Leah hugged my arm and asked, "Sean how did you find me? How were you so sure it was me?" I blushed and said, "Well I didn't know the consequences for grabbing the wrong woman so I was very careful to listen and I could smell them when I got close. Once I realized that the women were in a 'V', I knew you were at the apex. It got easier. All I had to do was avoid running into one of them. When I got close I could hear you breathing and it seemed like it was the right height. Then I smelled your shampoo and soap and I was sure." Leah laughed and flung herself into my arms. "Wonderful, bloody amazing and wonderful." I got a good long kiss. When I looked up Sarah was staring at me. I asked, "Did you wave back Sarah?" She blushed bright red. "You know I did Sean. You must have a nose like a wolf hound on you." She turned to Leah and said, "I told you the first time I saw him that he was a goodn' but I didn't know how good." The whole group, I noticed they were all married couples, escorted us back to the river bank where the fed us a huge breakfast. There was lots of talking and laughing. The unmarried youngsters were doing the serving. One young man stared at me for a full minute and finally asked, "How did you do it Yank? How did you do it so fast? They won't tell us what the challenge is but you passed it in record time. We almost didn't have time to get it all cooked and ready for you." I winked at Mike, who looked a little tense, "Well lad the only advice I can give you is to know your girl. Pay attention to the small things. The special things. Then you'll do well when it comes your turn." He looked confused and looked around. Mike and the others laughed and Mike finally said, "Listen to him Patrick. Listen to every word. He's astounded all of us here today with how well he and Leah know each other." The party went on until well after noon. I pulled Leah aside. "What was that all about? I thought we were already married in the Druid's eyes?" "We are and we are. It's an old, old custom here. It's supposed to show the young couple that they have to pay close attention to their spouse." She grinned and gave me a huge kiss. "And I'm the luckiest woman in all of Ireland because my husband does pay close attention to me. I only hope I learn to pay that close attention to him because he deserves it." The whole village escorted us back to Leah's house and waved goodbye as we disappeared inside and closed the door. I shot the deadbolt on the door and turned around. Leah was naked and kneeling looking up at me. "Sean you know you totally freaked Sarah out when you waved at her. She was sure you could see something around the blindfold." Leah giggled. "Och I wish I could have seen her face then." She turned serious. "Ah, I'm so blessed that you found me." I reached down and gently picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. "Leah I'm blessed to have found such an Irish angel. I don't know why or how but I can feel when you are near me. I get a sense of peace and a warm glow. All I have to do is listen to my senses and I know. Maybe it's because of the awful year I spend separated from you. I'd read your emails and close my eyes and pictured everything I could about you. How you looked, your laugh, your little Mona Lisa smile. How you felt in my arms. How you breathed and how you smelled after a shower with your soap and shampoo and how you smelled after an hour or two of work. I loved all of it but my memories pale in comparison to reality." She was kneeling on the bed unbuttoning my shirt with tears running down her lovely face. "Jesus, I don't know how you get to the Blarney Stone but if you make me feel any better, any more special I think I might explode. That or cry myself into dehydration. Och, you make me feel so good. I want you to know how special I think you are." I realized that I was naked and Leah was guiding me down onto the bed. "How do I make you feel special love?" She looked at me with her mouth open. "How! How! My God you just literally sniffed me out of a pack of women in a strange forest. Blindfolded and spun around. My god how much more special can you make a girl feel. I mean I'm hot and sweaty blindfolded and tied to a tree and surrounded by other women. You find me in the quickest time anyone here has ever seen. How much more special can I feel. It's like there is a spiritual connection between us. You know before you got to me there were several men who came close but they never touched me. When you came to me it felt electric. My whole body sang ... You did it so fast. Sarah thinks you cheated and could see." The Salmon I gently pulled her into my arms. "My body sings when I'm near you too. When I started I didn't know what to think. Then I realized that the woman slightly behind me was further out than the one in front of me. When I moved in front of Sarah I realized the same thing was happening on my left. It just suddenly clicked in my mind that they were standing in a big V and you had to be at the apex. After that I only went slow enough to make sure I didn't run into one by accident. When I got to you I could smell your soap and shampoo and your own special fragrance. That's when my body started to sing to me and to you." Leah sniffed, "That is so beautiful. See how you make me feel special. I guess I can see it. Understand it. I felt electric tingles when you got close to me. Your breathing and I guess your soap and shampoo and your sweat. Fragrance, tis a very nice word for it. Now what about Sarah?" I laughed, "By the time I got to her I was really learning to use my senses. Other than you the only village woman I've had a lot of interaction with is Sarah. It just seemed like her from her fragrance. That and her height. So I took a chance and waved to her." Leah laughed, "You waved to her! No wonder she thought you were cheating. How did you know her height?" I kissed Leah. "From her breathing. It seemed to be at the right height." She hugged me. "Lord, you're amazing. I didn't even know about the ceremony. The married's keep it from us. Sarah warned me to be quiet but when the kids were questioning you I held my breath but you gave the boy some great advice without giving anything away. I thought Mike's face would split when he realized that you knew to keep the secret." I kissed her. "I love you Leah, with every fiber of my body." She said, "I love you too. Sean I need you to be my master as well as my husband so please, please tie me up and fuck me. Every married person in the village will be here to find out how you found me so fast." "So you want me to be your master?" She chirped, "Yes, yes I do." I quickly rolled her onto her stomach and gave her two sharp swats on her ass. "Then you'd do well to remember I'm in charge and I'll say what we do and when." She gasp. "Yes Sir! Whatever you want." She whipped her arms up behind her and crossed her wrists in the small of her back. I took her wrists in one hand. "This isn't normal most people would cover their ass." "Husband I'm not normal. I give myself to you. You're in control and you decide." She panted. I looked and her pussy was starting to swell and I could faintly smell her. My cock jerked to life and I had to adjust it to be more comfortable. I reached down and gently caressed my handprints on her ass cheeks and ran my hand down between her legs. Leah moaned, "Oh God Master. Please Master. Please!" I took my wet hand and spanked her twice more. "Please what? What do you want Leah" "Please Husband. Please make me come. Please let me come. Take me Master you own me." I gently stroked her ass again. She was trying to lift it toward my hand. I ran my thumb inside her pussy. "Wife you don't have permission to come." She groaned "Oh God. I'll try Sir, I'll really try." I managed to get my belt out of my pants and wrap it around my hand so about a foot was sticking out. I used it to lay two more strokes on her upper thighs. "On your knees." She scrambled to her knees with her face and shoulders on the bed. "Yes Sir. Oh Gods Sir." She spread her knees wide so I had full access to her ass and pussy. I stepped up behind her and slipped my cock in. She was hot and wet and amazingly tight. I ran the belt over her back as I pumped in and out of her pussy. She started to squeeze my cock. I used the belt lightly on her ass and every time I spanked her she really gripped my cock. Leah was panting and gasping, "Please Master please let me come soon. I'm losing control. I can't help it. This is just so good." I couldn't stand it either. Her pussy was gripping my cock pulling it in, pulsing on it every stroke. I gave her two final swats with the belt and reached underneath her and started rubbing her clit. I started coming and gasp. "Now Leah come for me. Come now wife!" She screamed, "AHHHHHHHHH GODDDDDDDDDDDD MASSSSSTER!" and exploded under me. I was wiped out and slowly fell forward pushing Leah flat on the bed. I barely had the strength to roll off her. I don't know where she found the energy but Leah swiveled around and licked my cock and balls clean. Finished with my cock she gave me a soft kiss. "Och Master that was incredible. It was soooo good. I hope I pleased you." I chuckled, "My God Leah, that was the most amazing sex I've ever had. You were perfect. You held it so long. I love you my Irish Angel, wife and slave." She laid her head on my chest. "You and your Blarney. Sean, you were the one that was perfect. Och you made me so hot with your spanking. I thought I'd lose my mind when you started fucking me." I didn't say anything I just stroked her hair and back. When we recovered Leah gave me a shower. We dressed casually. I was a bit surprised but Leah didn't put on any underwear. She just smiled and gave me a kiss when I asked. "I'm a married woman now. I don't want to restrict my husband and master." We were barely fast enough. There was a knock on the door as Leah finished brushing her hair out. It was Sarah and her husband Mike. As they came in Sarah said, "Tell me how you knew it was me. You could see couldn't you?" I smiled as I pulled the two of them inside. "No, Sarah, I didn't cheat. You're the only lady in the village that wears that particular toilet water. I was pretty certain it was you." I started to shut the door but more couples were coming up the walk so I just left it open and waved them in. They all sat around and Leah brought all of the chairs from the dining room so people could have seats. The only seat left was one overstuffed chair. Leah led me to the chair and gently sat me in it. When she headed for the kitchen, all the women followed her. There followed a hen party that we could hear clearly through the door. That's when my interrogation started. Mike started, "Ok mate, how in the hell did you find her so fast. Everyone here stumbled around for at least two hours usually more. You, you sod, only took about half-an-hour at the outside. So give, how?" I started to answer but was interrupted by another question. Ian said, "You acted like you could see but I know you couldn't. I put the blindfold on myself I know it was tight. So how?" Before another interruption I held up my hand to stop further comments. I cleared my throat. "Ok this is how it was for me. At first I was somewhat lost. I knew I was in the forest and I could hear the river so I had a general idea of where I was. I started very carefully and I heard breathing so I moved toward it being very careful to note how I turned. When I got close I could smell a hint of smoked salmon on her breath." One of the men said, "That's my Alice." "I knew it wasn't Leah we hadn't eaten anything after brushing our teeth. I heard another woman breathing further to my right. When I got close I could tell that she had a slight rasp maybe a cold or hay fever, she wasn't Leah. Then I moved to my left and encountered another woman and Sarah. Mike I could tell it was her by the faint scent of her toilet water. This is when it suddenly hit me that the ladies formed a corridor that led to Leah. At first I thought it was a large 'V'. Now that I think about it, they probably formed a spiral but Leah was still at the apex. I just moved down the spiral guided by the breathing of the women. I got a strange feeling as I got close to Leah. I was infused with a sense of peace and joy. Leah calls it my body singing to hers. I knew I was right when I caught her fragrance on the breeze. That's how I found her so quickly. Just like I feel her now." I had unconsciously closed my eyes reliving it as I told my tale. When I opened them Leah was standing beside me with a glass of beer for me. "Och you tell a fine tale M...Husband. How did you know I was here?" "I told you I felt you near." I said, pulling her into my lap. The rest of them were sitting with their mouths open. Sarah said, "Ok so you know my toilet water. What about this singing of bodies. I don't understand." Leah stirred in my lap and answered. "Sarah I think Sean described it perfectly. Several other men came close to me while I was tied to the tree but when Sean came close I was suddenly filled with peace and joy. I hadn't heard him and I hadn't smelled him but suddenly I knew Sean was close. I was suffused with happiness." She turned and kissed me. She gave me a sip of beer and looked at her friends. Sarah spoke to me. "Sean you knew Leah was close to you. You can feel her? That's amazing. Leah can you feel when Sean is near?" Leah said, "Could in the woods. I don't know about now." Sarah said, "Let's try. Can we?" Leah nodded and got up. Sarah took her and carefully put a blindfold on her. Spinning her around several times. Meanwhile the men shuffled me around and put a blindfold on me then we all held hands in a circle around Sarah and Leah. Sarah kept Leah at least two steps from us. Sarah walked Leah back and forth bringing her close to a man then pulling her back across the circle. Suddenly I got the feeling again and Leah said, "Sean. This one is Sean." Seconds later her arms were around me. The men let me go. I removed our blindfolds before wrapping my arms around her and carrying her back to our chair. Sarah said, "Amazing I saw it and I still have trouble believing it. God you two definitely belong together. I've felt a little tingle when Mike was holding me a time or two but nothing as strong as this. You two are so lucky." Leah and I answered in unison. "We know." I noticed that all of the women were sitting on the floor next to their husbands. One of the other women, Kate, asked, "Leah what about the domination?" Her husband said, "Sush woman. You know that's not to be talked about until after." Leah smiled. "Tis alright Pat. He took me before you all got here. ... By the gods he took me so good. He's a good firm hand and a loving disposition. He's perfect for me." I asked, "So you all dominante your wives?" Mike said, "Yeah. You already took her! Jesus man that's fast work." I smiled, "She started getting a bit lippy so I thought I'd head it off before it got started. She responded beautifully." Leah blushed. "Yes Sean made sure I knew who was in charge. Then he showed me why I wanted to keep it that way." Sarah grinned, "Well girl let us see your ass." The whole group of women took Leah to the kitchen. When Leah was finally allowed to sit at my feet again Sarah looked at me, "You also used a belt on her."" I nodded, "Yes I did." Leah said, "He's good with that too. I'm not really hurt, just wonderfully warm, if you know what I mean." There was general laughter at that. Then they took Leah and I back to the woods. We went very deep and suddenly everything seemed familiar. I walked up to a large fir tree. "This is where Leah was tied. Right?" Mike said, "Freaking amazing. Yes Sean from now on that is your tree, yours and Leah's. We know your love will last as long as the tree. Tis part of our belief." And that was our initiation to true married life in the village. When we went to bed that night I was amazed at how the rituals and strengthened our bonds and sealed our love for each other. The rest of the evening Leah was almost glowing. Every time I looked at her she was looking at me and smiling. Then I realized that I was smiling as much as she was . I could feel her looking at me . She served me an outstanding supper with one of the local beers. After supper I pulled Leah into the living room and sat her on my lap. She pushed away, "Och I love this but I need to do the dishes." "I'll help you wife. First, I want to know something. You're glowing like a lighthouse." She blushed, "Yes sir." "Leah, am I glowing at all? I just feel so elated." She smiled. "Och no sir. Not you, you just might outshine the sun." She gave me a kiss. "Sean, my love. I'm so glad you feel like I do. What amazes me is that we can feel each other? Do you know how rare that is? This connection we have?" "Yeah lass, I know how rare it is. I can't explain it and I really don't care as long as I have a connection to my lovely Irish angel." We kissed for a little while and then I helped her do the dishes. We went to bed early and had the most marvelous loving sex. We caressed and kissed each other. I didn't really dominate her and she didn't really submit to me. We each did our best to please each other. We truly made love. We made love until it started to get light before we drifted off to sleep holding each other. I woke about noon and found myself staring into Leah's beautiful green eyes. She broke into bright sunny smile. "Good morning my husband" and gave me a soft kiss. I couldn't help but smile back and run my hand through her soft, coppery hair. I paused and asked, "Leah are there any more things I should know about the druid, village marriage rituals?" Leah giggled, "I don't think so. I didn't even know about the test we just went through. You know my love, you totally impressed everyone with how fast you found me. You impressed me. I was expecting to be tied to our tree for a couple of hours. It took Mike that long to find Sarah and they thought that was fast." I thought for a minute and said, "You mean the rest of the married people don't have the connection we have?" Leah gave me a long soft kiss. She said softly and seriously, "Sean, my love, not even close. I mean all of them have a little bit but nothing near as strong as our connection. Oh God it was hard the year you were gone. I felt empty sort of hollow the whole time but when you knocked on the door I suddenly felt warm and whole. I was so shocked when I saw you with that humongous fish. I was tingling all over my body, almost like an electric shock except it felt better than anything I ever felt before. I don't understand why we have this connection but I'm so glad we have it." "Leah my love, I was miserable the whole time I was gone. It wasn't all because of my boss and the stupid job. That didn't make it any easier but the worst part was I missed you so bad I couldn't think straight half the time. My dreams were haunted by lovely green eyes and soft bright copper colored hair. Your warm soft lips and smooth lovely skin." She burst into tears and kissed me, holding me tightly. I stroked her hair and whispered, "Leah what's wrong. I'm sorry." She sniffed a couple of times, "Och Sean, you and your blarney. I just feel so wonderful. You dreamed about me the whole year you were gone. I dreamed about you too. Your strong arms holding me and your body against me. Sean, I often had orgasms in my sleep while dreaming about you." "And now?" She smiled, "Och, now I don't have ta dream. Now I have the real thing. You're ever so much better than a dream. You don't vanish when I wake in the morning." I wrapped my arms around her. "Isn't that the God's honest truth. There is nothing I like better than waking up to see your beautiful eyes." She smiled and gave me a long soft kiss. "I thank the gods you found our village because you were searching for a dead spot in the cell coverage. I feel truly blessed." "As I do my beautiful wife. As I do." It was three days until the village solstice festival started. During that time we filled out the paperwork and I officially had a job as the Network Administrator for the village. Leah showed me the room where the net connection from the outside entered the town, a closet inside her house. She also added a desk for me across from her desk. There was an ethernet cable but no computer. Leah said, "Sean I'm sorry but we didn't have the money to get you a computer." I hugged her, "Not to worry. I'll use my laptop. Now do you still have the old windows web server?" She nodded, "Yes. You were right I was checking things and it died about three weeks after you left. There was a horrible squealing sound and it quit. Why?" "It sounds like the hard drive had a catastrophic failure. I thought we could buy another hard drive and I could use it to monitor the network." "That would be so great. I don't know when I can get Mike to run us to town." "Leah my love, you forget that I have a good boat named after you. Tomorrow we'll take it to town." "Och right. I'm not use to being part of the rich set. What's her name. You know tis bad luck to have a boat without a name?" "I told you, I named her after you, wife. She's called the 'The Irish Angel.'" "Och you and your blarney." She dropped her eyes and smiled. "Makes a girl feel good, it does." We went into town and got a couple of hard drives and a three new network cards. We had a good lunch before heading back to the village. I spent the rest of the day building the network server. Leah came and got me for supper. As we were eating she asked, "Sean, my love and master, why did you get three network cards?" I took a bite of salmon and answered, "I'm going to pass all of the network traffic through the server so I can monitor it. There won't be any IP addresses on the input and output cards. I'll use the third card to control the server and gather the statistics." She looked at me. "Really? You can do that?" I kissed her and pulled her into my lap. "Oh yes. It's a good way to keep track of what's happening on the network." About ten o'clock that night Leah undressed me and herself. It was just getting dark. Twilight comes late ing the summer, at the latitudes of Ireland. I asked, "What's going on?" She smiled, "Time to get naked, howl at the moon and make love under the stars. Tis the first night of our solstice celebration." She giggled at my stunned expression and gave me a kiss as she pulled me out the front door. As we walked toward the river I asked, "So what do you do with the children and teenagers during the ceremonies?" She hugged my arm, "Och not to worry. Before the fun begins the teens and the unwed take all the children to the meeting house on the far side of the village. There are also a couple of pairs of us marrieds that have chaperone duties. Och, there are a lot of wild rumors spread in that meeting house." "And how do you know that?" I asked. "You forget beloved husband and master, until last week I was an unmarried woman. I was preparing for another four nights with the wee ones and keeping the teens apart." "Ah so I saved you from all that. So you don't really know what goes on?" "Och you're sharp. No I don't know but I'm terrible eager to find out. Especially with you, husband." I hugged her, "I'm especially eager to find out with you my love." We talked all the way down to the river. At the river we found a huge bonfire and some tables loaded with food. The villagers were all arriving, as we were, all were naked. Patrick the boy who asked me the question after we completed the bonding ritual came over with a very pretty dark haired girl. "Sir this is Keri, my girl. Could you tell her what you told me earlier? She doesn't understand. To be truthful I'm not sure I understand." Leah squeezed my arm. I said, "You need to know each other. Leah and I are very lucky. We can almost feel each other and feel how each other are feeling. The fancy word for it is empathy. You need to notice the small things about each other. It's very rewarding because you feel closer to each other." Keri asked Leah, "So you feel close to him?" Leah looked up at me and said, "Och yes. The year we were apart was agony for both of us. I just learned that he dreamed about me every night. I know I dreamed about him. I was amazed at the details about me he dreamed. If you're serious about each other then learn all the little things that make each other special." The Salmon Sarah walked up. "You two had best believe they have a connection. They have the most amazing connection with each other. I'd listen to them I would." They both nodded and moved off to join their friends. The dancing started and soon there were two circles the women going clockwise around the fire and the men going counterclockwise. We danced for well over an hour. Mike stuck close to me explaining things as we went. There was a pause for refreshments. We all had watered down wine and cakes. There were a few ceremonies to the druid gods then the children and unmarried young adults all went to the meeting house under the supervision of two married couples. After the children left there was another ceremony. This time we were together as couples. Leah started leading me through the dance and this time we danced together. The dance was much more intimate. The women and men seemed to be trying to excite each other. I know it was working for me. I think it was working for Leah. She was flushed and her eyes sparkled with excitement. As the dance continued I started to lose myself in Leah's eyes. I suddenly acted on an overpowering urge. I took Leah's hands and held them over her head as we danced. She obligingly held her wrists together in one of my hands and twirled in my arms pressing her breast into my other hand. She got bolder as did I and soon I had both of my hands on her lovely ass. She surprised me by lifting her legs and wrapping them around my waist. Somehow it was as if I was waiting for her to do that. I managed to balance her weight and reached up and took both of her hands and pulled them behind her back. She leaned in, kissed me and settled my cock into her pussy. Felt to me like I was suddenly surrounded by love. The rest of the people could have just as well have vanished from the earth. All I could see, feel, or hear was Leah. I couldn't say how long we danced like that. I think I came at least twice. Then I was lying on the ground looking up at the full moon and a sky full of stars. I was still hard and Leah was riding my cock. Her head was thrown back and her face was glorious in the light from the fire and the moon. My hands were gripping her breasts with my thumbs and forefingers squeezing and rolling her nipples. The sky was starting to lighten when we finally strolled toward our house. Both of us were exhausted. Leah started the shower and we washed each other before falling into bed naked in each other's arms. We slept until two in the afternoon. Leah cook an enormous breakfast. I asked her why and she said her mother always said you needed to keep your strength up during the solstice celebrations. We ate and checked the website and the network. I had this incredible urge to just be near Leah, to be able to touch her and smell her and hear her. I asked her, "Leah is this normal? I feel like my need to be near you is like my need to breath." She came and sat in my lap. "Sean, I don't know if this is normal. My Mum said she always felt especially close to my Da during the solstice festivities but what I feel and I guess what you feel is beyond close. Do you know I could feel you in the bedroom when I was at the front door. It seems like I'm a lot more sensitive to where you are and what you are feeling than ever before. I love it but it's a bit frightening." I hugged her and was enveloped in a feeling of warmth and love. "I know what you mean. Somehow I knew when you opened the door. Leah I love you and I love the connection we have." The next night was much like the first night. The third night the unmarried lads and lasses had departed and we started to dance and I had a sudden overpowering urge. I took Leah's wrist and led her away from the bonfire up the river. I didn't see Mike and Sarah follow us. I led us into the woods where it was pitch black even with the full moon. Somehow I knew exactly where I was going. Instead of resisting like any normal woman Leah was with me, she seemed as focused as I was. Finally I stopped and realized that we were at our tree. Leah looked at the tree and then at me and said, "Och yes Sean." She put her back to the tree and spread her arms. I stepped up to her. "Leah my Irish Angel I love you." I leaned in and kissed her. She lifted her feet and wrapped herself around me. My cock slipped into her and we started to fuck. I don't know what happened but I came but didn't get flaccid. We had at least four orgasms each until the moonlight came through the trees and a shaft of light struck the two of us. When that happened I had the most incredible feeling of completeness and came one more time. Leah also came and lowered her legs. We stood there Leah hugging me and me hugging her and the tree. I picked her up and carried her out of the woods back to the bonfire. When we got to the river bank I sat down with Leah in my lap. She kissed me and went to the food tables. She brought back several sandwiches and a bottle of wine. Sitting in my lap she started feeding me interspersed with kisses. Mike and Sarah sat with us. Mike finally broke the silence. "Sean do you know how you found your tree tonight?" I answered, "No Mike. Something was just pulling me along. When we reached the tree I knew that was where we had to be." Sarah asked, "Leah, weren't you afraid? You didn't give any resistance when you were being pulled into the woods. What were you feeling?" Leah gave me a kiss, "No I wasn't afraid. Sean was there. I think I felt the same pull Sean did. We just had to go . When we got there I had to put myself against the tree. It gets really fuzzy after that. It was like a continuous orgasm with the most love I've ever felt. I'll never know how Sean had the strength to carry me back to here." Mike and Sarah looked at me . I said, "I don't know. Leah felt like she had no weight. I just had to hold her. I couldn't do with just holding her hand. I needed to hold all of her. So I did." Mike and Sarah looked at each other. I said, "What. What are you not telling us?" Mike said, "Next week. We'll talk next week. Now it's time for bed." When we went back for the fourth night Mike said, "Sean, Leah, you're needed to watch the unwed and the children tonight. Sorry to do this on your first solstice but you won't miss anything. In fact you two have been the highlight of this solstice." I nodded, "Ok we can do that." Leah took my arm and nodded too. When we started taking the kids to the hall I noticed Mike and Sarah were also with the group. Mike gave me a sheepish smile. "Yeah Sarah and I have the duty too. Just remember we need to stay awake. The teens are pretty sneaky." Sarah whispered something to him. He groaned and said, "At least Sarah and I were." In the hall things settled down quickly. The younger children were all tired and went to sleep quickly. About midnight Leah and I caught Patrick and Keri being a little too friendly. Patrick ducked his head and said, "Yeah I know go to the other side of the hall and Keri will stay here." Leah looked like she was going to do just that but suddenly she looked at me and smiled. She whispered, "Sean you have a better idea. I can tell. Go ahead and do it." I kissed her then I said, "Keri do you really like Patrick? I mean do you think you might want to marry him?" Even in the dim light we could see her blush. "Yes. Yes I do. I think I love him." Leah took the hint and said, "Patrick?" He also blushed, "Yes. I think I love Keri and want to marry her." I said, "Ok, Patrick, sit down." I pointed to the center of a mattress. Once he was settled I led Keri until she was directly behind him and facing away from him and said, "Keri sit down." Once they were both settled leaning back against each other I said, "Now take each other's hands. You can stay together as long as you don't let go of each other." They intertwined their fingers. Patrick said, "Now what?" I smiled at Keri, "Now you can be together for the rest of the night as long as you don't let go of each other's hands . Remember how important I said it was to know your mate. Well this gives you some time to learn the little things that turn out to mean so much." Patrick turned his head to look at me and buried his nose in Keri's hair. "Och I like your shampoo." He said. I smiled at Keri and Leah smiled at Patrick. I said, "That's a good start. Little things." In a few minutes Mike and Sarah came over and we moved away from Patrick and Keri to talk. Mike asked, "I knew these two would push the limits. What's this all about?" Leah explained what I had them doing. Sarah said, "Brilliant, bleedin' brilliant. We would have just separated them for the night. How did you think of it?" I whispered, "Well it looked to me like they were pretty committed to each other. I gave them some advice and a way to learn little things about each other without being consumed with the flames of lust. I think they are going to do pretty well. Patrick noticed Keri's shampoo I'm sure Keri is just as sharp." Mike said, "What does the smell of shampoo have to do with anything?" Sarah punched him in the arm. Leah answered, "Mike, Mike, Sean told you just a couple of days ago that he found me by my fragrance. The smell of my shampoo, my soap and my sweat. Fragrance tis a nicer word for it but he knew what I smelled like and that's how he knew he'd found me. Those kids have been dancing and running around. Now they'll know each other's fragrance, if they pay attention that is." All four of us went to check on them. The both had their heads thrown back and turned and would steal an occasional kiss. More often one would kiss the other's neck and earlobes or just whisper something to each other. I noticed that Keri had pulled Patrick's hands around in front of her and they were resting on her stomach. Then they slowly switched and Keri's hands were pulled back to rest on Patrick's stomach. Because they couldn't let go they couldn't get to breasts or other private parts. I was impressed. The two stuck it out for four and a half hours before we let them get up. I asked, "How was it?" Patrick smiled, "It was interesting. I don't know how I missed how good Keri's shampoo smelled and other things." Keri said, "Och yeah and I really like Pat's aftershave. It seemed like it changed during the night. Is that possible?" Leah said, "Probably. It would get weaker and Patrick would sweat. His fragrance would change. I know Sean's does but I'd know him anywhere and anytime." Keri gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and kissed Leah too. "Thank you. Thank both of you so much. This was so much better than the other nights when we were separated. I actually feel good instead of frustrated." We accepted their thanks and shooed them out the door. When all the kids were gone Mike and Sarah came over. Mike said, "That was an amazing thing you did. We were warned about those two by the other chaperones. Your trick kept them out of trouble for the whole night. The others had to separate them three or four times and watch them like a hawk." Sarah said, "Yeah, after we get some sleep I think I'll try to get Mike to try it for a while." Mike said, "Sarah!" She looked at him. "Yes Michael?" Then she smiled and took his arm. That was the end of Leah's and my first summer solstice together. Leah and I settled into a routine. We woke early, about six in the morning, ate breakfast and took a walk. After the walk Leah would check on the website and update things. I'd check on the network and work on making it more available to the rest of the village. We'd take time for lunch and work until about three in the afternoon. After work we'd take another walk and visit with friends. I'd often go out on the boat for an hour or so. After supper we'd visit some more friends, often at the village pub, go home about nine in the evening and go to bed. We often slipped in a session of afternoon love making. One day in late August we'd finished for the day and I had a yen so we got naked and I sat Leah on the bed, then I sat back to back with her and just held her hands. We just absorbed each other, touching and feeling. It was wonderful and suddenly I had a strange epiphany. I said, "Leah my love, are you pregnant?" She sucked in a big breath. "Sean, how do you know that? I'm not even sure myself. My period is a bit late but that's nothing unusual.?" I leaned back and started kissing her neck. "Leah, I think it's wonderful. Come on get dressed we need to take a walk." "A walk? Now? Sean, it'll make supper late." "Then supper will be late. Leah you are disobeying your husband." I pulled her over my lap and gave her ten swats on her ass. "Now get dressed." She smiled through her tears and gave me a kiss. "Yes Sir. I love you Sean." Once dressed I took her hand and walked her down to the river and up into the woods. We held hands all the way to our tree. I put her back on the tree and leaned in and kissed her. "Leah my Irish angel, you're carrying our first child. I feel in my bones that it was conceived here on the third day of the solstice celebration. Leah I'm so happy. Tomorrow we're taking the boat and seeing the doctor. Then I want to get married in a civil ceremony. I love you." She looked at me and said, "I knew it was possible but how can you be so sure?" "Leah, sweetheart, your fragrance has changed. I realized it while we were sitting on the bed. Suddenly I just knew." She startled me by breaking into tears and sobbing. I held her and she held me as she cried. "Leah. What's wrong love?" I asked while stroking her hair. After a couple of minutes she sniffed a few times and answered me. "Sean you make me feel so special. My God. You can detect changes in my fragrance. That's unheard of. What should we do now?" I kissed her, "You are special my love. Now I think we should go and ask Mike and Sarah over to supper so we can tell them. Why don't you go home and start something simple. I'll go ask Mike and Sarah." She smiled and kissed me back, "That sounds perfect my lord and master." We strolled out of the woods hand in hand. We parted with a kiss that half the village must have seen. I went to talk with Mike and invited them over at about seven that evening. When I got home I helped Leah straighten up the house and set the table. This helped keep Leah calm as she cooked. I could tell she was almost bursting with energy and angst. Ready to fly into a frenzy of house cleaning. Sarah and Mike arrived right on time, obviously curious about the sudden invitation. We had a wonderful supper and I kept steering the conversation to trivial things. Mike was good with this but Sarah kept getting more and more agitated with the conversation. Finally, she could take it no longer. "Sean can you please stop blathering and tell us why we had the sudden invite? It's driving me mad." I laughed. "Okay Sarah. It's Leah's news I'll let her tell you." Leah came and sat in my lap. "Sean is sure I'm pregnant with our first child. He says my fragrance has changed. He thinks it happened during the summer solstice when we made love against the tree." Sarah squealed. "Leah, Sean that's great!" Mike congratulated us. We couldn't do much more than shake hands because Leah was still sitting on my lap. I asked, "Mike could you and Sarah go to town with Leah and I tomorrow morning. We want to get confirmation by a doctor. We also need you two to witness our wedding at the government offices. I don't want our child born out of wedlock." Sarah was positively vibrating as she looked at Mike. Mike said, "Of course we will. This is really good news. Now what do you think we should do." I laughed, "I guess we should all go to the pub so we can spread the word." Leah said, "What about the dishes?" I kissed her, "Leah, I'll help you do the dishes when we get back." She stood and rubbed her ass. "Yes Sir. Whatever you want." Sarah looked at Leah and then at me. Leah said, "I didn't obey earlier and have been soundly spanked for my transgression." Sarah smiled, "Och I see he learns quickly." Leah replied, "Aye that he does." She gave me another kiss and we left for the pub. At the pub the news was received with great joy. I was pounded on the back I probably had more bruises than if I gone ten rounds with Ireland's best boxer. I also had a lot of beer. Leah on the other hand was surrounded by the women of the village. She had one beer which she nursed for three hours but god what a hen fest they had. Finally, at about midnight Leah gathered me up and walked me home. I was really plastered. I vaguely remember her showering me and putting me to bed. The next morning I had a major league hangover. Leah was really sweet about it. She coddled me all the next day. She smiled a lot and told me a new father was entitled to get drunk once. She emphasized once. It was almost another month before we got to town and got married. The doctor reported that Leah and the baby were fine and healthy. I bought us all a good dinner and stood us to a hotel room for the night. It was too late to make it back to the village that evening. When we got back the word spread like wildfire. We were escorted to the pub by the whole village, at least it seemed that way. Many drinks were bought for Leah but she only took one small wine. I was plied with all sorts of drinks. Remembering the previous celebration at the pub I stopped at one whiskey and one pint. The hen party went on for several hours and our bull session went on just as long. We really don't know how long the two parties went on I took Leah home about midnight. In the shower Leah smiled and said, "You did so well tonight. With all those free drinks Rob would have been on the floor hours ago. Why didn't you accept more of them?" "I didn't want to disappoint you. I also wanted to be able to see you home and go to bed with you. I like to snuggle with you." She said, "Lord I love your blarney," as she pushed me under the shower to rinse me. I smiled, "You'll have to be patient with me. I'm liable to be very protective of my Irish angel and our child." She kissed me, "I'll do my very best. Sean, I love you to distraction. I've never felt better now that this morning sickness seems to be stopping." She gave me a hug and started drying me as I was drying her. We got to bed about half past midnight and went to sleep. The Salmon Rob grinned, "I didn't know she had a past like that. Glad I didn't marry the bitch now. Maybe I can use her now and then." The leader said, "Maybe Duncan will do that or maybe he'll give you a discount depending on how you use her." Rob was amazed when he found the door locked. They broke the door down. When they couldn't find her they went out the back, led by Rob. Sarah called most of the other women in the village. They decided to gather at the meeting house to talk about what they should do. After looking through Sarah's house and a couple of other houses Rob glimpsed someone disappearing around a corner. He waved the other two over. "Guys I think they are all gathering in the meeting house. Over here." He led them off around the building. Sarah hustled the last of the women inside and locked the doors. They were all talking at the same time, all at high volume. Leah had just started to explain when Rob and the other two started pounding on the doors. After a couple of minutes one of the men pulled a gun and shot the lock off the steel door. He herded the women to one side of the hall and let Rob and the other guy in. They held guns on the women and Rob grabbed Leah and picked out Keri and another three teen girls. They tied their arms and roped them together by the neck. There was a lot of crying as Rob and the one of the thugs led the stumbling women toward the road. Leah said, "Rob let the girls go. Rob you won't get away with this. I'm married and Sean will come for me." Rob slapped her knocking her and the entire line of girls to the ground. "Leah you stupid slut he'll never find you or any of these other sluts. Duncan is out and sent us to get you specifically. He needs some new sluts to sell. Who's Sean? Is he that stupid Yank you took in last year? Ha, he's such a wuss." It took them considerable time to get the girls back on their feet. By that time the third guy had caught up with the group. "Come on, come on, get the sluts moving. I yanked out all the telephone lines but those bitches will get loose soon. This gave Leah an idea. Soon after they set off again she stumbled and took the whole line down again. In her mind she was screaming, Sean help! Rob's got me again! He's taking us up the road! Sean please hear me! Rob yanked her up by her hair. "Leah you stupid slut you do that again and I'll beat you senseless. You did that on purpose." Leah said, "No Rob you stupid ass. I'm pregnant! I can't go this fast. I faint." Rob laughed, "God Duncan will love this. He can sell your kid as a bonus after letting the freaks fuck a pregnant woman. It's perfect."
