He takes them in and then life takes off Codes: Mf ff gi cons rom pedo lolita ------- ------- Chapter 1 Friday 6th march 2009, I was sitting at my computer as the time rolled towards midnight, six months before my parents had been involved in a major car crash. I had spent the last months with my married sister organising a double funeral and clearing out their clothes. I sat there thinking about my final exams due in under 10 weeks. I was quietly surfing the net when my e mail warning popped up with news of a message from the national lottery, another £6.00 win at a guess. I maximised thunderbird and there was the message line: - News about your ticket! I looked down: - We have some exciting news about the ticket that you bought for the Friday 6 March draw. I clicked on the hyperlink. The national lottery website opened and I followed through the links to my messages. I nearly fainted when I took in what the message actually said. It wasn't £6.00 I had won; I had won the Euro lottery Mega jackpot. I was the sole winner of £85million. It gave me details of how to claim my winnings, Monday morning would see me able to go the Lottery HQ to claim. One thing I was sure about, there would be no publicity for me. I was due at the theatre on Saturday night to see some friends perform on stage. A medium length wig and a moustache should disguise me enough. I hardly slept over the weekend, the two plays were excellent, they were both comedies which were what I needed. Monday morning I set off, I had sat before the mirror carefully doing my make-up; I certainly didn't look like me. I had all the proofs they had told me I needed. By the end of the day I had seen the money transferred into my bank account; I had sat with advisors to safely invest large chunks of money to give me long term growth and income and had a large chunk of money in my current account. I drove home in my father's old car. That would be an early task, replace the old banger. I pulled into the drive and thought I must have left the garage light on as it was shining over the parking area. I put the key in the door and lifted it; I was stunned to see two bodies huddled in an old blanket. I went over and saw that it was a couple of children. I reached out to touch them and they were cold to the touch. One looked older, her eyes opened and she screamed in fear. The second child didn't stir. "Give that one to me and follow me into the house." I carried the younger one in and pulled the other one with me. I shut the door and quickly had them in the warmth of the house. I carried the littlest one through to the kitchen where my mum's Aga poured out heat and sat her down in the easy chair. "What are your names? And what were you doing in my garage?" "I'm Nerys and this is Cassie, we're 13 and 11. Your dad used to help my mum, she went out last night and she hasn't come home yet, so we thought we would come here for help." "I'm afraid my parents died last year, but if I can, I'll help you. Are you hungry?" "You wouldn't believe how hungry we are, we haven't eaten since last night. Mum keeps all the cupboards locked." "Okay, I'll make you some cereal with hot milk to keep you going." With that I went to the fridge and pulled out the bottle of milk. I filled a jug with milk to heat in the microwave, and then put cereal into two bowls. Four minutes later I was giving them steaming bowls of cereal and hot milk. I decided to check just how cold they were. "Excuse me girls." With that I slipped my hand into Nerys' armpit, it was cold to the touch. Cassie was the same. "You are both much too cold, I'm going to run you both a hot bath; I'll then wash your clothes and dry them for you." I walked through to the bathroom and started the bath running; I put some of mum's bath oil under the running water. I went back into the kitchen where the girls were just finishing their cereal. If you go through to the bathroom and then give me your clothes you can have a bath whilst I start the washing." As I finished speaking the girls stood up and stripped off to the buff, they were just a rack of ribs and Wednesday legs. So thin it was a case of when were they going to break, Nerys had the beginnings of boobs, small bumps on her chest. I could smell the sour smell of unwashed skin, I wasn't surprised, it went with their grubby clothes. I showed them to the bathroom and went along to the utility room; I soon had the washing on the quick cycle as they wallowed in the hot fragrant water. I went back in to the bathroom and saw Nerys washing Cassie's hair in plain water. "Aren't you going to use the shampoo?" "Mum never lets us use shampoo; she says it's wasted on us." I reached up and took the shampoo bottle and poured a slug into my hand, I set too, to washing Cassie's long hair, it just seemed to absorb the shampoo into the thick tresses. I washed out the first helping of sludge, and started again, this time the shampoo foamed slightly, a third application lifted the rest of the dirt and grease out and I was able to work up a good lather. As I rinsed her head I could now see her hair was a gleaming blonde rather than dull light mouse. I then set to work on Nerys' head; I saw the same transformation in her hair. I smiled to see the foam drip off her hair and over her little cones. I flicked the spray of the shower over her tiny breasts and smiled at her little giggle. The water had turned a dirty brown so I pulled out the plug and let it drain away. I stood them up and rinsed them clean with the shower head. The sallow look to their faces had gone replaced with a very fair skin; their faces seemed to glow with pleasure. I turned the water off and took bath sheets off the heated towel rail. I could see them shudder with pleasure as the hot soft towels wrapped around their thin bodies. After I had dried them I gave them the bath robes to put on and led them to the lounge, I had lit the wood stove and there was a comforting glow coming from it. "What would you like to eat?" "I don't know, we've never had a choice." "Well do you like pizza?" Cassie piped up, "Oh yes, I like that, I had it at a friend's house once." "Ok then, would you like to help me make some?" "Make pizza's, can I?" "Oh yes, it's not hard, do you want to help as well Nerys?" She answered by standing up and taking Cassie and my hands. I took them back to the kitchen and within 10 minutes I had two large pizza bases rising on the cover of the Aga and a pan of chopped tomatoes simmering away with some garlic and herbs. "Nerys, does your mum have a mobile phone?" "Yes, I have the number in my purse, she picked it up from where she had been sitting when they first came in from the garage, she took out a small scrap of paper with a number on it and passed it to me. I looked and dialled, I listened to it ringing. It was answered by voice mail and I said, "This is Martin Rogers, I am phoning about Nerys and Cassie, please call me back urgently." I added my phone number and hung up. Less than two minutes later I was called back. "Is that Martin Rogers?" "Yes, who am I speaking to?" This is the West Mercia police control room." He then gave me his rank, name and number. "Why are you ringing this phone?" "Well I understand that this phone number belongs to Nerys and Cassie's mum." "Who are they?" "Two girls whose mum used to come to my house, their mum went out last night and hasn't been seen since, they were frozen and starving when I found them in my garage an hour or so ago." "So what have they been doing since you found them?" "Well seeing as they were suffering from hypothermia, they have had some warm cereal and a hot bath. They are now helping me make pizza for their tea." "Can we come round and see you please, it's very important." "Certainly you may." I gave them my address and was told to expect them within the hour. I went through to the utility room and fetched their clothes out of the washer dryer and brought them to the girls. "I think you need to get your clothes on." The dressing gowns were dropped to the floor and they were quickly pulling on their clothes. Nerys put Cassie's hair into a plait and asked me if I could do hers. I struggled and gave up. "You'll have to show me how it's done, but for the moment this'll have to do." I brushed out the mess I had made and grabbed a rubber band off the side I drew it into a pony tail which I secured with the band. By now the pizza bases were ready. I smeared the dough with the tomato sauce, and then I pulled out the mozzarella cheese, the spicy sausage and various other flavourings for the pizzas from the fridge. Five minutes later the pizzas were in the hot oven to cook. I cleaned up the sides and put three plates into the warming oven. I had just cut the cooked pizzas into slices when the door bell rang. I went to answer the door whilst the girls started on their first slices of pizza. I took the police into my study. "What didn't you want to tell me on the phone?" "The owner of that phone is unconscious in hospital in a critical condition; she was knocked down by a car." "Oh shit, I have her two daughters eating pizza in the kitchen." "Well in which case we will have to have a word with them, can you bring them in here so we can tell them?" "Certainly, but can you give me at least five minutes so that I can get some food into them, apart from a bowl of cereal I fed them when they first arrived, this is their first food since last night." "Well can we wait here, then when they've finished if you could bring them through?" "Certainly, that's no problem." I went back into the kitchen and grabbed my slice of pizza; I made no comment that I had the police in the study. They had soon finished five slices of my pizza each; I only managed to save two slices for myself. "Girls, will you come through to my study? I have two police officers who need to have a word with you about your mum." They held my hands as I walked them into the study, I sat on the easy chair and they sat on the arms, never letting go of my hands. "Officer, this is Nerys and Cassie." "Girls, I'm very sorry to have to tell you that your mum is in hospital, she was knocked down by a car at ten o clock last night." "Why are you only telling us this now? That was 22 hours ago; we were at home until four hours ago." "We only found out about you when Martin rang your mother's phone, we rang the number marked home but it was unobtainable." "Yeah, the landline was cut off months ago, mum couldn't afford the bill. But why didn't mum tell you where she lived." There was a pause. "Mums dead isn't she, you're just not telling." With that both girls were in floods of tears. I drew them both onto my lap to comfort them. "She was still alive when we left the station, but she was unconscious, I'll radio back for an update." We listened to his clear voice and the apparently garbled message that came back. She is still unconscious. Oh and another thing girls; what's your address?" Nerys gave it and then asked. "Can we go and see her? How will we get there? Who'll look after us?" she stopped speaking and started crying again." "Nerys, I'll take you both, you can stay with me if you want." "Oh yes please Martin." I wrote down the details of the hospital and where it was. They then explained where the ITU was and where to park and left me to sort things out with the girls. "Right then, have you finished eating because if so we can shoot to the supermarket and buy you some clothes, and then go and see your mum." "You don't have to buy us clothes, we're ok honest." "You need some clothes; and I can afford them so no arguments." Five minutes later we were in the car and driving across Shrewsbury to the 24 hour supermarket. In fifteen minutes they had two outfits each, a skirt and jeans with tops to match along with new undies. We even had a first bra for Nerys. We picked up some trainers to go with the jeans and pumps to go with the skirts. There were also two puffa jackets to keep them warm. I had even picked up a couple of nighties for them. They looked so smart in their new clothes, I called the assistant over. "Can we sort this so that they can wear these clothes out of the store; I have to take them to the hospital to visit their mum." "Of course we can." She picked up her clippers and soon had all the tags cut off and in the trolley with the other new clothes. She took us through the checkout and explained that she had dealt with all the tags. We bagged up all the new clothes and carried them out to the car and set off for the hospital. We were soon parked and had to pay the £2.00 parking charge, I led them in through the outpatients' entrance and followed the signs for ITU there was a bell at the door for us to ring. We were met by a nurse. "I have brought Ms Davies children to see her; we were told by the police that she was in here." "The police told us you were coming, normally we only allow two visitors at a time, but in these circumstances I'll take you all in together." She showed us where to get the plastic gowns and the hand gel to sanitise our hands. Then we walked through into the quiet area. There were half a dozen bays, 4 were occupied. I knew when the girls saw their mum as my hands were crushed. I could see the stitches crawling over her head like a centipede. The bags of fluid keeping her hydrated and I could see she was on a ventilator, which was breathing for her. We had been five minutes with her. It seemed longer as the girls chatted to her unresponsive body. The ward sister and another nurse came up to us. "Martin, can you come with me, I have some police who want to talk with you." I looked to the girls and the sister went on. "Nurse Taylor will stay with them." I followed the sister into the office, there were two police officers. "Ah Martin, after," he looked down at his page, "Nerys gave us their address we went round with a search warrant, we had found some wraps of heroin in her bag we just didn't know where she lived. We found some more drugs, we also found a will, and it names you as guardian." He slid a single sheet of paper over to me. I looked and saw my name and address. "Are you willing to take it on, they don't expect her to live, her body is shutting down." "Of course I'll take them in, I suppose I already have." I walked out to the bay, took the girls hand with a whispered, "come with me" I led them back towards the offices. Sister led us into the relatives' room and closed the door behind us I sat down on the chair and drew them onto my knee. "Cassie, Nerys, there's no easy way to say this; I have just been told your mum isn't going to make it. The police have been to your house and found a document naming me as your guardian." Nerys looked up at me and asked. "Truly, you as guardian?" I put my mouth by her ear and quietly said. "I was named for my father, he was Martin as well." Cassie had heard my whispered comments and the tears stopped flowing. They looked at each other and nodded. "Can we stay with you?" "Of course you can." I was crushed as the two girls hugged me to themselves. I turned to the Nursing sister. "What happens now?" "Social services have been called, there is a social worker on the way to see the girls, she or he will ask the girls if they want to stay with you, I will tell them how the girls reacted when you told them. I'm sure they will want to get you checked out quickly. We will give you Ms Davies belongings, what there are of them; the police have got her mobile phone and keys. Then we just wait, once you have been formally appointed as guardian, then we will talk more about Ms Davies treatment." Cassie gave a huge yawn. "Do you want to lie down and close your eyes for a bit Cassie?" "Yes please." Sister pointed to a couch in the corner of the room with a blanket. Cassie kissed her sister and then me. I took her over and she lay down, I tucked the blanket around her to wrap her in it and gave her a kiss on the forehead; she gave a huge sigh and seemed to fall asleep instantly, I looked at my watch and saw that it was 11:30 at night; well past a little girl's bedtime. I went back and sat down; Nerys got back on my lap and then looked at Sister. "What do you want to discuss with Martin? switching off the ventilator? Nurse told me that it was breathing for mum. Just switch it off, look; you need to understand how things are. I know mums a junky, I know how she makes her money, she sells herself, and, well, she fucking sold us, my cherry made her a lot of money six months ago and a load of times since and Cassie's made even more last month, she used it all for drugs. She went out after tea yesterday and we weren't able to eat until Martin made us some cereal and hot milk, and then some pizza tonight. I found out tonight that you should use shampoo to wash your hair, until Martin put us in a bath to warm us up because we were so cold, we hadn't had a bath in years, he gave us bath oil and shampoo to use. I always thought my hair was light brown; it had so much dirt in it. For once in my life I am clean, warm, well fed and well clothed. He took us into Tesco's on the way here and bought us new clothes from the skin out. The assistant there measured me for my first bra a 34A." With that her voice tailed away into sobs. "Yes Nerys that is what we would be talking to Martin about." I looked over my shoulder and saw a woman with a badge. "Martin can I have a quick word with you?" In answer I walked over to her, we went out the door leaving Nerys and a nurse who had come in at some point. "I have seen a copy of her will, it was faxed to me as night duty social worker, do you have any ID on you?" I pulled out my wallet and showed her my driving licence. "That's fine Mr. Rogers. We did some checking in our system; you are at teacher training college aren't you?" I nodded. "We checked with the college database and your CRB check was clean, you have gained those two girls trust, and you didn't hear me say this, their love. Will you take them in for the night at least? My colleagues will make final arrangements once the mum is dead, with what I just heard from the girl I will initiate formal child guarding proceedings, I will have to get a doctor to examine them both after what I just heard. We're in the right place; if you want to rejoin the girls I'll have a word with sister about getting a doctor to examine these two." I went back into the visitors' room Nerys came into my arms and I sat down and drew her onto my lap. "The social worker is getting a doctor to come and examine you and your sister." "Do you hate me because I've not got my cherry?" "Of course not Nerys, it wasn't your fault your mum decided to have you raped, I don't think I had better say what I would like to do with your mum." The social worker came in the door as I was speaking. "Don't worry Mr. Rogers, I feel the same way. Nerys, a doctor is coming to examine you and Cassie; I'll need you to put this gown on, if you would like to go through to." She stopped as Nerys just stood up and stripped off, folding her clothes neatly before taking the gown from the social worker. "I was about to say to go through to the treatment room to change. Sister has had a trolley brought through to their treatment room; we can go through there for you to see the doctor." "Can Martin come with me?" "Will Cassie need him if she wakes up in a strange place?" "Hmm, yes, I suppose she will." She went out with the social worker as I sat beside Cassie; it wasn't long before she came back with the doctor, who came over to me. "How deeply asleep is she, I really do need to examine her now." I shook Cassie gently, there was no response. The doctor turned to Nerys, "Nerys, can you help me, I need to look into her panties where I looked with you and took a swab and I'll also need a blood test. I'll use the same cream on her so she doesn't feel it." I stayed holding Cassie's hand as Nerys helped the doctor. Then she put the cream into the joint of Cassie's elbow and two minutes later took the blood sample. They finished off by re wrapping Cassie like a parcel in her blanket. I'll just have a word with the social worker and then get these bloods and swabs down to the lab." I sat there with Nerys back on my lap. An hour passed and Nerys was asleep on my lap and I was dozing on and off. The doctor and social worker returned and I awoke. "Right Martin, the good news neither Nerys nor Cassie have any infections, Nerys isn't pregnant either." The social worker stopped. "So Cassie is, the poor kid, she can't be far along." The doctor then started speaking. "Nerys said her sister was raped on Valentines night; that her mum said that she got more for her because of her age and the day it happened. Will this news change your feelings about being their guardian?" "God no, it makes me more determined than ever." "Good, I spoke with my on call manager, with what we have; we have applied for and got an emergency care order. I will have your name and address put in as where they will be going to stay. Then you can take them home." As she was speaking the ward sister came into the relatives' room. "Yes what is it?" "Ms Davies died two minutes ago." There was a stir on my lap and a voice piped up. "Good, maybe my sister and I can have a proper life now." I hugged Nerys and told her yes. It took an hour for me to finish the paperwork. I gave the social worker my mobile phone number as well as my land line. They gave Nerys her mother's handbag and that was it. I went to unwrap the blanket from Cassie to carry her out to the car. "Don't unwrap her, tomorrow is time enough for her to wake, carry her out like that." Nerys picked up her sisters coat and shoes and we left the relatives room, I looked up the ward to where the lines on the monitor were flat. Nerys looked away. "I'm going to forget that was supposed to be my mother." With that she put her hand on my arm and we walked out of the ward. I told her where my car keys were and she put her hands in my pocket and fetched them out. When we got to the car she opened the doors and helped me strap her little sister into the seatbelt. We were quiet on the way home, we had learned so much that night. When we got home I gave the keys to Nerys to lock the car and unlock the house. I carried Cassie through into the lounge for the moment and put her on the sofa to sleep whilst Nerys and I went through to the kitchen to talk. First thing was to put the kettle on to make tea and slip some bread slices into the toaster. "Martin, what are you going to do about Cassie's baby?" "Me? Nothing, that's up to you and Cassie, I will help you and support you in whatever decision she and you make. If she wants to keep it then I will be converting a bedroom into a nursery, if she doesn't then I will be taking her to the hospital for an abortion." "But aren't you angry about her being pregnant?" "I'm angry with your mum? I'm furious; I want to bring her back to life so I can kill her again, painfully for what she has done to the two of you. Cassie and you, you didn't do anything wrong. Well except being born to your mother." I smiled. "But we had no control over that." "I know, that is why I am not cross with either of you, come on the tea and toast is ready." We sat there eating slices of toast and drinking our mugs of tea. "It's been a busy day today, when it started we were two kids home alone and now we've got a new family and my little sister is pregnant. We'd better get Cassie into bed; will you help me get her into her nightie?" "Of course I will Nerys, where did we put her new nightie?" "I'll get it for you." Together we stripped her skirt, blouse and jumper off and slid her new nightie on; she looked so cute with the Betty Boop logo. I carried her to what was my old room and put her in the double bed. "Where do you want to sleep, in here with your sister or in the spare room here?" I opened the door and showed her the room; it was very similar to my old room. "I'll sleep with Cassie?" "That's good, my room is through there. I'll leave the hall light on for you." With that she put her hands behind my neck and drew me down for a kiss. "Thank you for all you've done Martin." I couldn't answer as my lips were filled with Nerys' lips. A little tongue poked into my mouth. Our tongues entwined for a few moments before I withdrew. "Goodnight Nerys sleep tight; don't let the bed bugs bite." With that I kissed her forehead and guided her towards her bedroom. "Goodnight Martin," she puckered her lips to blow a kiss and slid into the bedroom to join her little sister. I went into my room, stripped off and went into my shower. I crawled into bed absolutely wiped out, it was two in the morning and I had been on the go since I set off for the lottery board regional office the previous morning. I hadn't even checked that the money had gone through into my bank accounts. I quickly logged into my bank and checked, it had, I still couldn't believe there was so much in my accounts. It was now time for bed; later today would be time enough to buy what we needed and worry about the girls' old home. I crawled into bed and turned out the light. I don't even remember my head hitting the pillow. Unknown time later I woke to find a body in front of me and a body behind me, judging by the size of the boob my hand was held against it was Nerys in front and Cassie behind. I tried to move my hand but the move was resisted. "Don't move Martin because that feels so nice." "I shouldn't be doing this." "Why not, I want you too, it makes a change to have a choice as to what I do, up to now it has been effectively rape, ok the men paid my mum, but I didn't get a say." "Turn over and face me, so I can kiss you as well." She wriggled in my arms, my hand twisted on her boob as she rolled over. My raging hard on poked between her legs, my fingers played with her pert nipples. I could feel her cunny sliding moistly over my raging hard on. "I definitely shouldn't go in there, I don't want you to fall pregnant at your age, I know your sister is but I don't want you having a baby before you are 17 at least." "It's alright Martin, after the doctor discovered I wasn't pregnant yesterday he gave me a double shot, one shot was the equivalent of a morning after pill, the second was a 6 month contraceptive implant." With that she rolled me onto my back grabbed my cock and slid home. "Oh Martin, that feels so good, you don't know what it means to be fucking with someone I have chosen to fuck." I reached up and cupped her small boobs, supporting the upward curve of the underside and squeezing the nipples gently between my fingers. "Nerys, this is not fucking, this is making love, my heart is involved in this, not just my body." I raised her up, and let her slide back down. She took up the action, her whole body was shuddering as my cock sliced through her tight pussy, I moved one hand down from her tilt tipped boob to her pussy and played with her protruding clit as she made love to me. I could see that she was getting closer to her cum and so was I. A light pinch to her clit and nipple sent her over the edge; her pussy started trying to milk my cock. It was overload and as I pumped my seed into her welcoming pussy, she cried out with joy and satisfaction. Her whole body went rigid, and then slumped down over me, sweat was streaming from her back and flanks as she tried to suck in huge gulps of air. I kissed her sweating forehead and slid my hands across her flanks and over her soaking back. "Oh Martin, oh Martin, I never knew it could be so good." A voice beside me piped up. "That did look impressive, I have never seen Nerys go off like that, I didn't know she could go off like that, can I?! "I don't know Cassie; you are younger than your sister." I was interrupted by Nerys. "Cass, I've got some things to tell you." She leant over and grabbed her sister. "Two things, mum has died and Martin is now our guardian, and Cass." She stopped; I could hear the break in her voice. "What your sister is trying to say is the doctors examined you at the hospital last night, they took a blood test and I'm sorry to have to tell you that you are expecting a baby, you are about 3 or 4 weeks on." "I can't be, I was a virgin until Valentines night, and I've never had a period." "You were evidently in the middle of your first cycle when you were raped. I have spoken with the social worker and the doctor and the choice is yours, to either have the baby, or have an abortion." "But where will I stay?" "Here with me and your sister if you want." "Do you mean that, even though I'm pregnant?" "Of course I mean it, do you think I would throw you out after telling you such news?" "After the way my mum has behaved, nothing would surprise me Martin. I don't think I want to have this baby, I'm too young, my schooling has been wrecked enough, where am I going to go to school?" "That has to be decided, how would you fancy Shrewsbury High School?" "Two problems with that, cost and getting in?" "Cost will not be a problem; with your history I'm sure we can swing it. Tell me seriously, do you want to stay with me. I know your mum named the late Martin Rogers as your guardian; he was my father. Everyone else has assumed she meant me, no one asked me why she chose me and I haven't volunteered the name of my late father. It's just turned 7 o clock, I'll go down and start preparing breakfast for us all, you make up your minds and come and join me for 7:30. For myself, yes, I would like you to stay with me." I gave them a light kiss, grabbed my clothes and went into my bathroom. Five minutes later I was in the kitchen preparing breakfast. I started with a pan of porridge; I then put sausages and tomatoes into the Aga to start cooking and got bacon and eggs out ready to cook when needed. I had bread toasted and racked and the table laid ready for us all to eat. Nerys and Cassie joined me, big smiles on their faces. It appeared Nerys was to be the spokesman. "Martin we want to live with you, we knew your dad and mum and you are very much like them." With that they plastered themselves against my body. I gave them both a big hug, then I sat them at the table, I brought over the bowls of porridge along with a tray containing jugs of cream and milk and a tin of syrup, I showed them how I started with a large dollop of cream in the middle of the bowl topped off with a tablespoon of syrup drizzled over the cream, the whole finished off with a lake of milk. They decided that my way looked interesting and they joined me. Silence reined for the next few minutes as we tucked into the hot creamy sweetness. I took mine over to the Aga where I continued with the cooking. Finally we were down to the toast and marmalade and cups of tea. "Now I have something I must tell you, but you must promise to keep the secret." "Ok Martin, we promise, what is so terrible we must promise to keep an unknown secret." "Yesterday morning and early afternoon I was at Camelot regional HQ proving I was the winner of Friday nights Euro Lottery Draw. My life had changed beyond all recognition before I got home yesterday and found you two." "How much did you win Martin, if that isn't a rude question?" "£85 million pounds." Their jaws sagged open; I leant across and gently closed their mouths. "Stop fly catching girls." "You're joking aren't you?" "No girls I'm not joking. We really are that rich. I was comfortably off before: this house was paid for and there were my parents' life insurance pay outs which were shared between my sister and I. Most of that was invested. I'm about to finish my teacher training course this summer, but I don't think I will be looking for a teaching post just yet; but I will finish the course, mainly for my own satisfaction." "Oh wow, I just can't believe it Martin, we should go to our house and sort it out soon, we'd better get our clothes." "Have you any better clothes than the ones you turned up in yesterday?" "No, I don't think so; mum only bought our clothes from the charity shops." Ok, we'll go to your house, organise its clearance, after you have saved anything you want to keep and bring here. I'll invite my sister, Mary, to join us for lunch; I want to give her some of my windfall. She may take you out shopping for clothes for me; she has a boy and a girl about your ages." I phoned my sister and she agreed to join me for lunch, I checked she was still using the same bank account that she had when I had transferred the money from our parents' estate; she was. I didn't tell her about Nerys and Cassie, I would keep that as a surprise for her. After we had loaded the dishwasher, we got our coats and set off for the rough end of Shrewsbury; Harlescott, where the girls had lived. Nerys let us in; we could see where the police had searched for drugs the night before. Nerys and Cassie picked up what they told me were their school bags, we went around the house, we went through their drawers and cupboards, the girls had been right, there was nothing worth saving. I was horrified at how little they had, their school uniforms; they looked third or fourth hand, some undies and a pair of school shoes each. Their bed had some threadbare sheets and blankets. I suddenly realised how cold the flat was, I looked around and saw that the thermostat on the wall had no dial, Nerys saw me looking. "Mum always turned that down when she went out and took the dial with her, if we were cold we huddled under the blankets." I took the utility tool out of my belt pouch, grabbed the stem and turned it up. It didn't turn far before I heard the click; I continued turning to give a reasonable temperature. I was searching for the girls birth certificates. I found a case full of documents, I could see the birth certificates so I reclosed it to take it home and read it in more comfortable surroundings. The girls had no toys or books, other than their school work. There was only the case of papers to take with us other than school bags. "Did you enjoy your school?" "No Martin, we were bullied and some of the staff seemed to look down on us because of what mum was." "In which case come with me to the school and I will take you out for the rest of this week. Hopefully we can get you into a new school by next week, I'm supposed to be at college this afternoon, but I think I will take the rest of the day off to get you sorted." We returned to the car and they directed me, a left turn, over the cross roads and in fifty yards I was turning in to the car park of the local senior school. We rang the bell by reception and the double door slid open and we went in to be greeted with. "Ah the Davies girls finally deign to grace us with their presence, what's your excuse this time?" I looked at the receptionist. "Nerys and Cassie's mum went out on Sunday night, she was knocked down and she died late last night, they are now in my care over the other side of Radbrooke, they won't be coming in for the rest of this week and I will hopefully be changing their schools. They told me they didn't like this school because of bullying by other pupils and some of the staff looking down on them because of their mother. I just heard proof of the latter in the way you just spoke to them. Girls, have you anything that belongs to the school?" there were shakes of the head. "Do you have anything of yours in lockers here?" "Yes we have, can we go and get it?" The receptionist said yes, they set off and I was told. "You can't go?" "Oh can't I? Well one of you can accompany us, I have had proof of one part of the girls statement about this school, I don't want the other part proved." We were accompanied to the girls' lockers by the younger receptionist. There were a few magazines and some exercise books in the lockers. They cleared the contents into their bags and we were about to leave as a couple of girls came through the swing doors, they evidently didn't see me or the school secretary. They saw the girls and I heard. "Oooh goody, playtime with Nerys the whore." The other raised her hand and attempted to grab Nerys hair. I darted forward and grabbed her wrist. "We'll have these two in the heads office now." I had the girls hand twisted up behind her back."Now stop struggling, I heard that Nerys and her sister were being bullied. I now have the proof. We are going to see the head teacher and if you continue to struggle I will ask Nerys to take my phone and call the police." With that the girl stopped struggling. I turned to the secretary."Will you take us to the heads office please? I want this piece of dirt I'm holding sorted out. I am going to continue to hold her wrist until we get there because I am worried she may take another bash at my ward." We were soon in the heads study. I told him all that had happened from the sarky comments by the main receptionist to the attempted assault by the girl I was restraining. He asked the receptionist if what I had said was a true reflection, and she agreed I had been correct. "I can only apologise, I was aware of Ms Davies profession, but my staff should not have allowed it to affect their dealings with you two girls. As for you two, I have never, before today, had the proof I needed about your bullying. I will call your parents to take you home today. I will investigate further and will make my decision about your future after I have spoken with you tomorrow. Miss Jennings, will you please take them to the unit to await their parents." "Yes sir, is there anything else sir?" "Yes, when you get back to reception send Miss Miles to see me." "Yes sir, come on you two, you can get your bags from your lockers on the way to the unit." After they left the head turned to me. "I'm so grateful to you, I knew they were bullies but the problem was getting independent proof. We're still waiting for the CCTV cameras to be installed in the locker areas and that should go a long way to stopping this sort of problem. Now we have two independent witnesses to an occurrence of bullying we can use all the other incidents when there wasn't a witness. If you give me your contact details, which we'll need anyway for the girls records I can notify you of the outcome. I will be withdrawing the girls from this school for this week at least as we have a funeral to organise. You probably haven't heard yet but Miss Davies was knocked down by a car and died in hospital of her injuries. I am now their guardian, well I will be legally when the paper work catches up." "Nerys and Cassie, you have my sincere condolences, I hope to see you when you have it sorted." "We will all be living on the other side of town, could you print out their school Record Of Achievement please, it will help when it comes to getting them started in a new school?" "Certainly, wait one." He pressed a few buttons on his keyboard and the printer in the corner started up and spat out the required sheets, he went to the bench at the back and picked up two folders. He put the sheets in and handed them to the girls. "Well good luck girls, I hope you will be happy with your new guardian and school." With that we left the school and I headed off to The Shirehall, to the social services office. It didn't take long for them to arrange my guardianship papers for the girls. We headed home, I still had to organise the transfer of money to my sister. We stopped off at the butcher in Coleham Head. He had a very nice leg of lamb hanging in the window that would make the centrepiece for a tasty roast dinner. We got home with half an hour to spare before the joint had to go in the oven, just enough time to allow it to marinade in some rosé wine mixed with rosemary leaves for flavour. Whilst it was marinating I went onto my computer and transferred £10 million to my sister's bank account. I would suggest to her that she checked her bank account before she went shopping. Nerys and Cassie helped me to prepare dinner. It seemed that they had never seen veggies prepared from scratch; they only knew potatoes as frozen chips and carrots as part of frozen mixed veg. We soon had the meat roasting and the veg prepared, the potatoes and parsnips for roasting and the carrots and cauliflower for steaming with the green beans. They were fascinated at how a meal was brought together. My sister arrived and I introduced her to Nerys and Cassie. I could see the puzzled look on her face so I explained what had been happening. I took her through to the study. "Mary, before you look at your bank account, I had better explain. I was the sole winner of the euro lottery on Friday. I won £85 million; you now have 10 of those in your account." "Ten of what?" "Millions, I have transferred £10 million into your bank account." "Oh boy, you're serious aren't you?" "Yep." "What can I say but thank you? But it seems so inadequate." "Well you can do me a favour, Nerys and Cassie have one other wearable outfit, which we bought last night, can you take them shopping please?" "No problem, can you go to my house and wait for my children to get in from school please?" "Certainly, it'll be good to see Jane and Hugh. I'll tell them where you are, do you want me to do their tea." "Oh please, they have cooked at school so I just do a snack type meal usually." "That'll be fine, now come on through as I dish up our food, roast lamb and all the trimmings." We went through to the kitchen and the meat was ready to come out of the oven. It went onto the heated carver whilst I made the gravy in the roasting tin. The vegetables were taken from the steamer and put into the electric trolley. I then wheeled it all through; Mary showed the girls how to set the table whilst I started to carve the succulent slices of meat. Silence fell over the table as we ate the rich tasting food, the crisp bite through the potatoes and parsnips. The look on the girls face was a picture. Nerys finally looked up from her clean plate. "Martin that was the best meal I've ever had." Cassie then piped up. "And me, I've never eaten the like of that." "Right girls, after we have cleared away, Mary has said she will take you shopping for clothes for you, there are two wardrobes and chests of drawers that need to be stocked." The rest of what I wanted to say was blocked off by a pair of fresh lips, trying to take over mine. I gave up trying to fight them off and kissed them back. "Ooh Martin, those two seem very friendly." I just shrugged my shoulders in reply. "Mary, these two need everything from nighties through to top coats and everything in between, they have a pair of jeans, a pair of trainers, a sweat shirt, some undies and what you see on them; and nothing else." "Okay then, lets get sorted, you two are going to join me in a raid on the shops." With that the plates and dishes were away into the kitchen. Nerys and Cassie put on their new puffa jackets, gave me a kiss and set off with Mary. For me I set to ringing Shrewsbury high school and arranged to go in for a meeting that afternoon with the head teacher. I took in their report cards and the letter from social services. I knew the head teacher well because my mother taught there until her death. Mary had been a pupil and her daughter was a pupil. I was welcomed into the heads study. "Hello Martin, it's good to see you, you are looking much better, but why are you here and not at college, are you coming looking for a job?" she had a big smile on her face. "Actually no, I am looking for places for my two children." "Stop teasing, you didn't have any children the last time I saw you, and certainly none old enough for here." "No, but I do now, I am the guardian for Nerys and Cassie Davies." "Oh gosh, your mum used to talk about those two, major problems with mum?" "Yes, drugs, alcohol and the sex trade. She was in a car crash on Sunday night and died Monday night. My father was named as guardian but everyone has assumed that was me, seeing as we have the same first name." "Ah yes. Your mother told me those girls are very bright, but behind themselves because of their home life and perhaps bullying." "There was definite bullying, both by staff and students. I have taken them out of their old school in Harlescott this morning. I have their reports and the social services papers." "Thanks Martin, I'll just read these." Two minutes later she finished."They seem to be doing reasonably well, well reasonable for their area where they lived. Can they come in tomorrow and work with a couple of my staff for a few days, and then we can place them in the right sets." "They're out with my sister at the moment clothes shopping, should I ask her to get their uniforms?" Oh definitely, I will sort out bursaries for them later." "Can you keep a secret?" "Yes, why?" On Monday I was at Camelot regional headquarters collecting the jackpot from the Euro lottery." "Oh my gosh, that was £85 million!" "Yes, how is the memorial bursary fund going?" "We've got to £4 million." I pulled out my chequebook. "Well here is the balance, but please, that is an anonymous donation." I took out my phone. "Hi Mary, I'm with the head at Shrewsbury High School. Can you fit them out with uniforms for here?" "No problem Martin, I have three stores holding shopping bags for us to collect from the loading bays later." "That's good, are you enjoying yourselves?" "Oh yes Martin, it's a blast." "Marvellous, I'll pick up laptops for them." With that I hung up the call. I took my leave of the head mistress and drove along Town Walls into town and found a parking space in Mardol. A brisk walk round the corner had me in the mobile phone shop, twenty minutes later I walked out with two new mobile phones linked to my account. Two minutes later I was in the computer shop talking with the owner. It didn't take long to identify a laptop which would be suitable for a teenager, fast enough for game playing. I bought two, I arranged for Craig, the shop owner to preload them with all the software they would need along with a game of Tetris to help with their handling of the computer. Other games would come later. I went into my bank and had a word with an advisor about accounts for the girls; they would be no problem as I would be a signatory. I arranged for them to be set up with £500.00 in each account. I picked up the evening paper and went into the coffee shop on the old market square. I sat down to read, front page was the story of Ms Davies and how a drunk driver had ploughed through her on a zebra crossing and that she had died the following night leaving two girls who were now in care. I would have to get my solicitor onto the case for the girls; they would have a claim against the driver. Finally it was time to return to the computer shop; Craig had two laptop bags waiting for me and a smaller package. "Right Martin, here are the laptops, ready to run. This pack holds all the discs for the computers. They are both set up to link into your network; I have put in all the passkeys etc" "Thanks Craig, they lost their mum over the weekend. My sister has them clothes shopping at the moment. They'll probably need a van before the day is finished." With that I loaded up and carried the bags down to the car and headed for Mary's house, her children would be home from school shortly. We were lucky that Mary had driven the school run this morning and so her two would be dropped off by other mums. Come the autumn Hugh would be a weekly boarder at Shrewsbury School and would no longer be a part of the school run, he had won a scholarship to the famous school. I carried the laptops into my sister's house and went through to the kitchen to plug them in to carry on charging, we both knew where we kept everything, in fact my sisters kitchen was very much the same as my kitchen, well she had designed mums kitchen two years ago when they had their kitchen rebuilt around the old coal fired Aga. Well that was my sister's work, designing kitchens for her husband's firm to install. I took a fresh loaf of bread out of the bread bin and recognised my sisters touch, it was home made. The jams in the larder were home made too. I set to slicing and buttering the bread and setting it out on the table. The cooked meats, jams and savouries joined the plate and mugs of fresh milk were poured ready. Hugh was the first dropped off and he greeted me with a quiet. "Hello Uncle Martin." He was a well rounded student, doing very well in his studies and sports. He had got a very good scholarship and he was doing well in his sports, from football to rowing in the racing scull on the Severn. "Congratulations on your scholarship, did you get my card." "Yes I did, and thanks for the enclosure." "That's all right Hugh, I was just so pleased for you, are you looking forward to being a boarder?" "Oh yes, it'll mean more time for sports and things." "And less trouble with your little sister?" "Well yes, but I do like her most of the time, but I don't let her know that." With that he stopped talking as his little sister came charging in through the back door and flung her arms around my neck and her legs round my waist. There was a joyous cry of. "Uncle Martin!!" "Hello Jane, pleased to see me then?" "Oh yes, but where's mum?" "She's in town shopping with my two girls." Jane's eyes popped out." "Your girls, since when have you had children, you're my uncle, you're not a dad?" Hugh's eyes were equally out on stalks. "Hmmm, about 24 hours ago, I found them in my garage." "You don't find children in a garage, just as you don't find them under the gooseberry bush." "Well Jane, I did find these two. They knew your granddad; he had helped their mum a few times. Anyway their mum went out Sunday night and didn't come home. Eventually they thought they would come round and see if dad could help. I got home about six o'clock and found them starved and cold in the garage. After I had fed and warmed them up we found their mum was in hospital and we got their quite late, sadly their mum died. Granddad had been named as guardian and because I have the same name they assumed it was me. The girls wanted to stay with me and so there we are." "Oh gosh, that's a bit of a shocker for you Uncle Martin. How old are they?" "Nerys is 13 and Cassie is 11, they will be joining you tomorrow at school Jane." "Will they be my friends' Uncle Martin?" "I'm sure they will, they didn't have any friends at their old school, they were bullied a lot." "Well that won't happen at my school, Miss won't allow it." "That's good; I'm pleased to hear it. Now sit down and have your tea." "Does dad know about Nerys and Cassie?" "I don't know, your mum may have phoned him whilst they're out shopping." I picked up a slice of bread and spread it with strawberry jam. It tasted delicious. The three of us sat quietly eating our sandwiches, Jane quickly slid onto my lap. I could feel the difference between Cassie and her. Cassie was so light and thin, Jane was almost the same size as Nerys, but she was two years younger than Nerys, ah well good food should soon sort those problems out. We had finished our tea and Jane and Hugh had gone into the study to do homework when I heard Mary's car draw up. I went to the front door. Nerys and Cassie were out of the car with arms wrapped around me. Once I freed my lips from theirs I asked. "Did you have a good time?" "Oh Martin, we've spent so much, we're sorry." "Don't be sorry, that's why I asked Mary to take you, she knew what two girls like you needed and bought it." I went back into the kitchen with the two girls wrapped around me. Jane was first to speak. "Nerys, Cassie, you're to come here tomorrow and we can walk into school together." "Do you go to our new school?" "Yes, Uncle Martin told me you were starting there. This way you will know someone at school and I can introduce you to my friends and I can introduce Nerys to the sisters of my friends. Do you know which class you're going into?" "I don't know, do you know Martin?" "No, you will be doing some tests tomorrow to see what your level are, and then you will be placed in the right sets." "Oh, I hope we get sorted soon." "You'll probably start in your new classes on Monday, tomorrows Wednesday, you'll like it there, they are aware that you were bullied in your last school and that your mum died yesterday. The head knew about you from my mum, she used to teach there; she had spoken about the family she and her husband were trying to help, but that won't go any further." With that Mary brought over a plate of sandwiches for Nerys and Cassie, once that was gone a fresh home-made trifle was brought out. Mary served it into small bowls, the whipped cream on top stood in peaks over the smooth custard with jelly and sponge. It had been my favourite pudding when I had been growing up, truth be told it was still my favourite pudding. I smiled to see the look of wonder on Nerys and Cassie's face as they took their first mouthful of homemade trifle. It was a sight to behold. Martin, I took the girls new clothes home and hung them up. All their school blouses etc are in the washer dryer, I've told them I will come over this evening to show them how to iron them. The rest is put away apart from one school uniform that is laid out ready for them for tomorrow." "Thanks Mary, as you can imagine I'm on a very steep learning curve." "Well Nerys and Cassie both know how to use the washer dryer now and will know how to iron by tonight, their mum never had an iron, that was one of the reasons they got bullied. If the girls come round tomorrow morning they can go on the school run with Jane." "That will be helpful; I do need to get back to teacher training college." "Well the school has all your contact details, plus they know that Jane is your niece so they will know who to contact, just send a letter in with them to give me as an alternate contact." "Thanks Mary, that'll make life a lot easier." "Henry knows about the girls, I phoned him at work and told him all the news, I made sure he knew that the money business was confidential." "Thanks Mary, I noticed next door has a for sale sign up, would you mind me moving out here. The only reason I hadn't made any moves before was not knowing where I would end up teaching. That is no longer a consideration." "That would be great; especially you having the two girls, we've been thinking about putting in a small swimming pool, we could put in a larger one now." "Yes, and covered for the winter." "Ooh yes, that would be good, come with me now and look at next door, I'm sure they will let us; we could just leave the girls here for the moment." "Actually I think it would be better if they come with us. It would be their home as well." "True. I'll just ring her and see if it's convenient." Whilst she was ringing I called the girls "Nerys, Cassie!! Can you come downstairs please?" We were joined by the two girls. "Girls, we are all going next door to look at it as it is up for sale. I'm interested in buying it and thought you two should have your say as well." Mary came off the phone. I'll just tell Jane and Hugh where we are. Two minutes later we were walking down one drive and back up the other. Grace, my sister's neighbour, invited us in. They were eager to sell, in fact they were moving out the following week as her husband's work had moved away. The house was well decorated and they were leaving all the carpets and curtains if we wanted. The house was ready to move into. I looked at the girls and they said yes. "Well subject to all the normal rules I am interested in buying, do you have a copy of the HIP (Home information pack) handy?" "Yes, well it is the draft one but it is the one the estate agent is using, here you are." I took the folder and quickly read through the document; Mary was reading over my shoulder and was nodding her head as she read. "If we can get to the estate agents now, we can get it going. Tell you what, you ring the estate agent and I'll ring my solicitor and we can meet there." With that I pulled out my mobile phone and made the arrangements as Grace spoke to the estate agents. Five minutes later I was away, leaving the girls with Mary. By 5:30 I was the new owner of the house, well apart from the signing of the paper work; that would be done tomorrow. The difference made by using the HIP's. I had arranged for the surveyor to come to my house tomorrow afternoon to register the details to get my parents house sold. I took my solicitor into the French coffee shop on the square for a hot chocolate and a Danish pastry. "John, I was the major winner of the Euro lottery last Friday, and I have now got two girls living with me, one eleven and the other thirteen. I need to do two things; their mother was knocked down on a pedestrian crossing and died later. My late father was named as guardian." John smiled and nodded his head at the joke that I was named for my father. "I have been accepted as guardian. I can also show you this." I took out the certificate from Camelot showing me as the Euromillions super mega jackpot winner. "I had wondered how you were so confident that you had enough loose cash to write a cheque for the deposit on that house when I knew you hadn't got a mortgage arranged and no job yet." "That's why I have come to talk with you tonight. I officially took those girls in at about ten past midnight this morning. I have got them into a new school, mums old school; my sister took them clothes shopping this afternoon. I will need to write a new will to protect them." "I think I had better write a quick one now. Your sister as guardian? Money in trust for the girls? Interest for their upbringing, capital expenditure at discretion of trustees that's me and someone else, your sister?" as he spoke he was writing on a sheet of paper. He passed it to me to sign, then called over two waitresses and asked them to sign. "I'll do a proper one tomorrow with all the details you'll need in it, but this way it protects your money from the tax man and protects your girls." "I'm off to college tomorrow, I'll be finished by 3:30 so if I can come in to see you then?" "That'll be fine, I'll look forward to it and I'll have all the documents ready for you to sign. You'll be able to move in as soon as you like." We finished our drinks and I headed back to my sisters. I gave her the will to look at. "I hope you don't mind that I named you as guardian, but I couldn't think of anyone else." "Don't be daft, of course I'd be guardian to them, hope I don't need to though." With that we both smiled. "If I take the girls back I can teach them how to iron their blouses. Then you come along when Henry returns." "Okay, that sounds fine to me, Nerys, Cassie, will you go with Mary now to learn to iron and I will be along when Mary's husband returns." With that Mary left with my girls and Jane and Hugh were finishing their homework. I sat back and thought of all the changes in my life. I only had an hour to wait before Henry returned; we sat and talked for a half hour before I set off back to my house. I drove in and parked in the garage, I went through to the kitchen and found white blouses on hangers and Cassie standing at the ironing board ironing away. "Martin! Nerys, Martin's back!" with that she put down the iron and ran to give me a hug. She was joined by her big sister. Mary followed Nerys downstairs more sedately and picked up the iron and finished the blouse. "Ok Cassie, we can go and hang up your blouses now." Cassie disengaged and went to my sister. They picked up the half dozen hangers and carried them to the bedroom, Nerys and I followed. I wanted to see what had been bought. The wardrobes were half filled with clothes. They had been busy; I was led from Cassie's room to the other spare room and was shown another wardrobe full of clothes. I could see the school uniforms laid out ready for tomorrow and rails of new clothes; in the drawers I could see more clothes. Nerys came back to me. "Martin, Cassie and I have bought more clothes today than we have had in our entire lives, you saw how few clothes we had, and what we had were second hand, I can't remember ever being bought new clothes." With that she put her arms around my waist and hugged me. "Actually girls I have two more things you'll need for school, they are by the back door." Cassie was away like a scalded cat; it was less than thirty seconds later she returned carrying the two laptop bags. Mary looked across to me. "I'll leave the three of you; you have two excited girls to sort out." I opened the first bag; the girls squealed in disbelief. Their jaws had dropped open. "Yes girls, you each have a laptop, they are powerful enough to play games on and they have the full office suite on them." I was thanked by two girls kissing me; they squeezed me so hard I could feel their ribs against me. "Bring them down to the study and you can have them ready for homework tomorrow, I just need to install the network printers on them. If you look in the front pockets you'll each find a memory stick, put that with your school bags and then you can bring home work on them. Cassie, it's time for your bath or shower, you choose." "Ooh, I'll have a bath please; will you wash my back please?" "Certainly, there is bath oil in the cupboard, you don't need to wash your hair, you did it last night." Cassie was away to run her bath as I booted up the computers, straightaway they locked onto my wireless network, three minutes later both the laser and inkjet printers had been installed on them. I demonstrated the computer to Nerys; she picked it up very well. "I enjoyed computer studies at school, would I be able to do programming on this computer?" "If you know what software you used, then I'm sure there will be no problem. Have a look to see what's here." A few mouse clicks later. "It's already on here Martin." That was it, she had the program up and running and I was out of the loop. "Martin, can you come and wash me please?" "Coming! I'll have to leave you for the moment, your sister is calling." "That's fine Martin, I have this to play with." I went to the bathroom to find Cassie enveloped in bubbles. I took off my shirt and leant into the bubbles, I could feel my hands slide over her bony body as I started to wash her with the bubbles. "Oooh that feels good Martin." I continued to slide my hands around her body, from her flat chest down to her bony legs. There were murmurs of pleasure as I washed between the toes. "Martin, what are we going to do about me being pregnant?" "Well if I haven't heard from social services by the end of tomorrow I will ring them and chase it up. It is still very early days and you wouldn't be showing anything for several months. We'll get you sorted in the next few weeks. You ready to get out now?" for an answer she stood up and held her arms out. I snagged a towel from the towel warmer and wrapped her in the warm white folds of towelling. Her reaction to the warm towel was almost sensuous as she wriggled in the warm towel drying herself. Finally she passed me the towel and took her nightie off the towel rail and dropped it over her head, it was so sad to see her bony limbs. I gripped her thigh between my hands and realised my fingers overlapped. I could almost encircle her thigh with my thumb and forefinger. I know Martin; they're too thin aren't they?" "Yes, they are, it's a sure sign you haven't been fed properly, I think I had better book you both an appointment with my doctor tomorrow afternoon, he'll advise us about how to take things forward, now it's time for bed." "Goodnight Martin." With that her hands went behind my neck and she drew me in for a goodnight kiss; her lips touched mine and then her tongue slipped forward to push between my lips. We stood there, kissing deeply. "Thank you Martin, I worried that you wouldn't like me because I'm pregnant." "Stop worrying Cassie, I love both you and Nerys." I brought my hand round from her back and gently caressed her flat chest; her nipples were rigid little nubs. "Ooh you like that don't you?" "Oh yes Martin, I enjoyed the sex I had, well after the first time that is, it was half term you see, Valentine's day was the first Saturday and that was when I had my first sex, then Sunday we were alone and then the rest of the week mum brought men to the house every day to do me and Nerys. On the Tuesday one of the men did us both up the bum, that hurt first time but wasn't so bad afterwards. I just wish I had had the choice of who and when. I didn't want to have sex and I don't think I was ready, I hadn't thought about it. I had kissed a boy at school but that was all." She took my hand and led me into her bedroom, "Lay down with me please, I want to feel you against me." I was glad I still had my trousers on as she cuddled up to me; I could feel her nipples boring into my chest. My hand slid up her body, bouncing over her ribs. "Oh Cassie, you're so thin, I'm scared I'll break you if I squeeze you too hard." "Martin, I'm many things but I have never been breakable." With that I gave her a big squeeze. "Oh Martin, thanks for that." Her lips dived back into contact with mine and our tongues started duelling. I felt a movement behind me as Nerys came and joined us. "Hello Nerys, your sister wanted some love." "Ooh goody, can I join in?" without waiting for an answer she was over my shoulders and leaning down to kiss her little sister and me. Between us we loved Cassie, I was sucking on her flat breasts, nipping on her rigid nipples as Nerys frenched her sister, oh how she loved being on the receiving end of love. I moved down the bed and lapped the fresh dew collecting on her bare love lips. We just poured out our love to little Cassie. My tongue explored the smooth pussy until her little clit started to poke itself out. That I nipped between my lips backed up with teeth. A couple of minutes of pussy eating and we had her rigid on the bed as her orgasm washed over her. Between us we brought her to three more orgasms. I left her pussy and moved up to kiss her, there was no response, we had wiped her out. "Oh Martin, I have never seen her cum like that, every other time the man fingered her pussy until she was wet enough to go in and then it was in and out until he came and that was it, no thought of making it good for her." "Well the difference was they were paying for it so it was just their pleasure they were interested in. The only reason they fingered her was to make it easier on them to go in, not to make it good for her." "Is that why I never had a cum until you?" "Probably, well that plus love." "Will you make love to me now then?" "Of course I will, move over and leave Cassie to sleep." Nerys slipped off the bed and drew me up, her fingers fumbled with my belt and trouser fastenings, then she drew them down over my hips, my socks came off with my trousers. As she knelt there lifting one foot at a time she leant forward and sucked my cock into her mouth and laved the helmet with her tongue. I looked down at her and saw her eyes looking up at me, I could see she was smiling by the way her eyes changed shape; her mouth couldn't because it was stuffed with my cock. I blew her a kiss and then drew my cock out of her mouth as I lifted her to her feet. I swung my hand below her bum and lifted her into my arms. She was as light as a feather as I carried her through to my room. I laid her on my bed and nuzzled and nibbled her smooth pussy. I dipped a finger inside her honey pot as my lips nibbled on her erect clit; it didn't take long to bring her to her orgasm, and then a second even more powerful one. I kept my finger in contact and moved up the bed and over her, I knee walked into position then lowered myself, I withdrew my finger and guided my cock into her slippery pussy, I slid my cock head through her lips, coating my cock with her juices. Then I pushed forward, I could feel her pussy lips stretching around my cockhead, it was a delightful sensation as I slowly slid home into her tight hot pussy. "Oh Martin, that feels so good, you've got me on the boil you filling me like that, yum!" "Are you ready for me to get going then?" "Oh yes, that'll be great." With that I started sliding out and into her hot slippery pussy, I brought a finger down to stimulate her clit as I thrust into her depths, I soon had her cumming a third and fourth time. I could feel her pussy walls pulsing against my cock as she dried to milk my balls of all my cum. I collapsed onto her hard body and she wrapped her arms around me to hold me to her. "Oh Martin, that was out of this world I wish I could stay like this all night." "I think I would hurt you if I laid on you like this." I relaxed my arms briefly and she took all my weight. "Roll over with me and you can sleep on top of me." "Ooh yes please." Her legs slipped down alongside mine and we quickly rolled over. Nerys kissed me and mined for my non existent tonsils with her tongue. "Goodnight Martin, this is nice with you still inside me." "I'm sorry to say that my cock is deflating." The next thing Nerys was squeezing my cock with her pussy muscles. "That feels great darling." Nerys continued working on me until I was hard again. "That's better, now to sleep." With that she gave me a peck on the lips and closed her eyes. Within minutes her breathing changed, her body relaxed and she was asleep on me. I quickly joined her. During the night we became uncoupled and I awoke spooned against her, my hand clasping her petite boob. We woke to the alarm at seven, I sent Nerys into my bathroom whilst I went to wake her little sister. "wakey wakey Cassie, time for you to get up." I leant forward and kissed my young ward. As my lips touched hers there was an eruption as she flung her arms around my neck and returned the kiss passionately, her tongue was boring for my throat. Finally we broke. "Cassie it's time for you to get up, you have your new school today, have a quick shower, then come down in your robe, you can then get into your uniform after breakfast. "Okay Martin, where's Nerys?" "She's in my bathroom having a shower." With that I rejoined Nerys and had a quick shower. "Nerys, I suggest you do what I told your sister, put the bathrobe on and come down for breakfast, you can change into your uniform afterwards." We were soon downstairs eating breakfast, I had my case ready for college. I was dropping Nerys and Cassie at my sisters. We were soon finished eating and after we loaded the plates in the dishwasher Nerys and Cassie went up to dress. Five minutes later they were down in their crisp new uniforms. The girls would be taken back to my sisters after school. I gave them their full blown goodbye kiss before we left, my sister would probably look askance at our tonsil ticklers. I pulled up in my sisters drive and gave the girls a quick kiss and then watched them bounce up the steps, their skirts flying out as they stopped to wave to me as I drove away. I would get all their news after school. ------- Chapter 2 I had just dropped off the girls at my sister's house in Weir Road, when my mobile rang, I answered on the hands free as I drove toward the A5 and the teacher training college on the Walsall Campus. I had another week in college, and then I would be in a school for teaching practice after Easter and finally my final exams. I looked at the display; it was my sister's number. "Hello Mary, what can I do for you this morning?" "Henry met the local land agent whilst they were out jogging this morning; you know the farm behind us? Well it's going on the market and I remembered how you often said that you would like to be involved in organic farming." "Indeed I do, and I have a friend who would do nicely as the farm manager." "In which case you'll appreciate the file that should be in your inbox later today, Henry gave him your e-mail address." "That's great; I appreciate that, could you ask him to send a copy to my solicitor as well? Oh, and another thing Mary, could you go in next door and ask if you can draw up the plans for a new kitchen?" "That'll be no problem actually I arranged to call last night. I'm going in there when I've dropped the children at school." "Thanks Mary, I should be back by about three this afternoon." "In which case the three of you can stop for tea, I should have your plans ready to look at." "Thanks, I'm gonna have to ring off now as the traffic is getting a bit busy and I need to concentrate." With that I ended the call and concentrated on my driving. Fortunately, apart from the last two days lectures, I was up to date. I was pretty sure I would be able to get a copy of the notes. I would have to ring my advisor at Camelot to change my appointment to include the girls; and also need to talk with my Director of Studies; hopefully I could do that before my first lecture. There was so much going on in my life, but it would be nice to get my certificate, I might like to teach part-time as a hobby because I had really enjoyed my teaching practices. Well that decision could be made later. I just had the one more session which would be at the girls' new school, well that was an advantage to being the son of the late deputy head. They knew that if it hadn't been for my parents' accident I would have done my teacher Training at Hughes Hall in Cambridge: However, at the start of term, my mother had still been just alive so I stayed in the west. I had the rest of the week on the Walsall Campus and then I would be in Shrewsbury until my finals. I had been doing extra study set by Hughes Hall and they were allowing me to sit the Cambridge exams as well. That was a marvellous privilege but I had graduated from Trinity Hall Cambridge with a first class honours degree and then they had been so supportive when my parents crashed their car. I would have to ask my sister to have Nerys and Cassie whilst I stayed in Cambridge for the exams, I was lucky that they were a week earlier than the ones I would take in Walsall. My session with my Director of Studies had gone well; I gave him my final assignments and showed him copies of my Hughes Hall work. He agreed that I should finish today and start my teaching practice as planned after the Easter holidays, and then do all my final exams. I left him just in time to meet my group in the canteen for lunch. They didn't believe me at first when I told them about my new wards, so I showed them the pictures of them running into Mary's this morning which I had taken on my phone. Finally my college day was over, I had rung my solicitor earlier; he could see me in an hour so I set off back to Shrewsbury to see about buying the farm. I walked into his reception and was greeted with. "John will be ready for you in five minutes, let me get you a coffee." With that his receptionist went to the coffee machine and poured me a cup. In less than the five minutes John's door opened and he led me through. "Oh good Martin, you have some coffee. I have some documents for you to sign. This one is for your signature for exchange of contracts on your new house. The vendor has already signed and their solicitor has the money in their holding account." I quickly read through the document and signed where it was marked. "Right, here are the keys you are now the owner. The vendors are moving out today, your sister has arranged with them about buying the contents, basically you own everything there apart from the clothes they are moving out with. Your sister has the other keys, I gather she is organising a kitchen remodel. Now this document is for the farm at the back. You will get possession of the farmhouse after Easter, if you want to do anything different with the farm in the meantime the vendor will assist, if possible." That was signed off, he then called a secretary to come in, she entered with another man. "Martin, I have your new will here, I have asked my partner and our receptionist to witness your signature. That was soon out of the way and the legal bits were completed. All it then took was a quick swipe of my debit card to pay John for his services. For the hundreds of thousands of pounds for the house and farm he could arrange payment from my accounts, for his bill, he couldn't! Whilst I was finishing this off a text message came in from the girls social worker to say that Cassie's procedure had been arranged for Saturday morning at the pregnancy advice clinic in Wolverhampton. Further details were being sent in an e-mail and by post. I was quickly logged on. It appeared there were some tablets on their way which Cassie should take Thursday evening then on Saturday we would go over to the clinic and she would have some pessaries inserted. She would then stay until she aborted. The clinic accepted that the social workers visit at the hospital the other night and at school today was the counselling she needed. I was just glad that they were helping Cassie so quickly, by the time she started normal lessons on Monday she would no longer be pregnant and would be protected against future pregnancies. I showed John the e-mail I had received and explained the history. "Her mother sold her cherry on Valentines night and then sessions through half term and since, Nerys was started earlier and was very lucky that she didn't fall pregnant. Poor Cassie has never even had a period." "That's awful, no wonder social services were so pleased to get them sorted with you." "Yeah, I reckon that's why they didn't ask questions about my age and my being nominated as guardian. Their vision was blinkered by their mum's appalling behaviour, and that I'm apparently respectable, but I'm not going to argue with social services placing them with me." We sat and laughed at the stupidity of the social services sometimes and I took my leave to head back to my sister's house. It was a swift journey out of town and I was soon pulling up on my sister's drive. I went to the boundary line and looked over the fence. Thirty yards of tarmac would join our two drives together and make an in and out drive. I walked round the back and found Mary talking with her old neighbour. "Ah Martin, I've been told that you've signed for possession." "Yep, that's right, did it this afternoon. John had got all the searches completed and he arranged the transfer of money." "Well Grace has just brought me the last keys, we have removed a section of the panel fence between our gardens at the back, her husband has just driven off with his car and trailer, and she is ready to leave with her car full. So do you want to take possession?" Five minutes later we had waved goodbye to Grace and were walking back into my new house. In many ways it was odd because all the rooms were still furnished and when I went into the kitchen the cupboards were still stocked. "Grace told me she wasn't bothering to pack this away, she hopes you don't mind. She feels she has got the better of the deal as she has had to buy physically smaller furniture for their new cottage, most of this wouldn't fit and would have gone to the sale rooms." "I think what I will do is sort out which of the three household's furniture we want to keep, and then get the furniture project for the homeless to come and collect the rest." "Hugh's going to remodel your kitchen; the plans are on the table for you to look at." I walked over to the table and picked up the plans. It was a complete remodel of the kitchen and utility room along with a conservatory off the dining room. "Hugh is having a specialist company come to build the swimming pool and its enclosure. That's why you can only see the junction wall of the conservatory." It was only then that I realised what was wrong with the drawing. "Well the kitchen and utility look great. You can go ahead with those. The conservatory will wait until the swimming pool is going in, that would make most sense wouldn't it Mary?" "Well yes it would." As she was speaking I could see her texting. "I'm just telling Hugh we have the go ahead for the kitchen, he has got Monday blocked in as the start day and if he confirms today, the supplier say they can get the granite worktop delivered next Friday." As she was talking I heard a car pull up outside Mary's. We quickly walked through the section of fence that had been removed in the back garden and met the girls. I was buried under Nerys and Cassie as they gave me hugs. "Oh Martin it was great, the teachers were marvellous but oh boy, did they keep us busy? The only break we really got was when the social worker came to see us. They told us that they were going to send you all the details about not having the baby." "That's right Cassie, I had a message to say that you are to take a couple of tablets on Thursday and then go in for the procedure on Saturday." "That's right, I got the message this afternoon when the social worker came into school, we talked about all my options, I decided to have the termination as I didn't want to get teased in my new school. Oh, and then Nerys joined us and we talked about mum's funeral. One of the governors at our old school is the local vicar. He has said that he is willing to either do a funeral at the cemetery or at the crem... , crem... ?" "Crematorium, do you know what the difference is?" "Well at the crem, they burn her body; the other way is to bury her in the ground isn't it?" "Yes, that's right, you don't have to go if you don't want to, but that's up to the two of you." Nerys looked at her sister. "I suppose we ought to go, mum did have some friends and it would be expected of us. I think the crematorium would be best." "Ok then girls, do you want me to organise it for you?" "Oh yes please Martin that would make it so much easier for us." "Ok I'll contact the undertaker and make the arrangements for you. I'll organise for a Saturday if I can, that would mean you wouldn't miss any more school." "Thanks Martin." "No problem, let's go and look at my new house shall we?" my hands were gripped and we walked through the gap in the fence. It was strange to look at this fully furnished house that I had not been involved in furnishing. I kept expecting the owners to come and throw me out for trespassing. Downstairs was a large kitchen/ dining room well, very large room, the dining table had 4 chairs on each side and two at each end and it still didn't crowd the room. There was a metal cupboard by the Aga, which, when I opened it, I realised was the original coal delivery chute for feeding the Aga. That would need to be looked at as I fancied a coal fired cooker rather than the oil feed I could see it currently had. We moved through and found a large living room and, at the front of the house was a study. Down the other side of the house was what had been a play room, it stretched from the front of the house to the back. I had noticed that, although there was central heating, the rooms had solid fuel stoves which appeared to be hooked up to the rest of the heating system. We went up the central staircase and found all the en-suite bedrooms. They were enormous with large walk in closets for our clothes. There were a total of six bedrooms, two bedrooms were empty, the rest were fully furnished with beds made ready. We had just looked in the airing cupboard at the piles of sheets when we heard my sister call from downstairs. "Martin, tea's ready." I shouted my reply and then turned to the girls. "Ok, time to head next door for tea." We were soon seated at my sister's table, the children were talking for England and I was discussing my new kitchen with my sister. I could only agree as it was exactly what I wanted. She went to the phone to ring her husband and Nerys turned to me. "Martin, we've got work on our memory sticks to do when we get home, can we go after tea?" "Certainly we can, as soon as you want, give me five minutes warning and we can leave." "When we finish then?" "Okay, Mary, these two have got homework to do so we'll be leaving after tea if that's ok?" "No problem Martin. I'll just bring the cake out." My sister, like my mother, had always baked her own cakes. Today's was an iced sponge with strawberry jam and butter cream filling, yum. We finished our tea and tidied away and then it was time to go to the doctors on our way home. It was a long appointment as the doctor had the nurse take all of the girls measurements, from the circumference of their limbs, to their weight and height and even their head size. I explained to the doctor what would be happening with Cassie over the weekend and how it had all happened. He prescribed vitamins for both girls and arranged to see us every two weeks so that he could check on their growth. Finally we could go home. It was a fairly short journey and then the girls set down to their homework. It was fun to watch the girls boot up their laptops and then download their homework from the memory sticks. I finished off my work for Hughes Hall as they worked on theirs; I could see they were answering multiple choice questions. I moved behind them and looked at the questions. I could see they were getting progressively harder. The two girls were sweating by the time they had finished. I saw them click on the finished button. Nerys turned to me. "I'm glad that's over, it's an IQ test, when we finished it was sent off and we get sent an age corrected assessment of our IQ's. You and the teacher should get the result in about five minutes." "Well, whilst we're waiting, I can update you girls on my news. I start my final teaching practice on Monday. I will be able to take you into school up until Easter as that is where I will be teaching, then in May I have to go to Cambridge to take my first set of finals and then I take my second set in Walsall at the end of that week. Last autumn I was due to start at Hughes Hall Cambridge but my parents were in a car crash, dad died at the scene and mum was critically ill so I changed my teacher training to Walsall so I could be around for mum. She died very shortly after the start of term, well Hughes Hall said that I could study there too, well I had a first class honours degree from Trinity Hall and they really wanted me. So I have been travelling there and back since then. They have worked closely with Walsall and have coordinated my studies and teaching practices." "What will you be teaching?" "IT, my degree majored in computer software design but covered all aspects of IT." "Will you teach me Martin, I just love playing with computers, I can write small programs already." "Of course I will." Just then my computer chimed to note I had mail. I turned to it and opened the mail. It was from the assessor it said that Nerys score was 156 on the Cattell III B test and Cassie's was 149, which meant both would be eligible to join MENSA if they took and got similar results on a supervised test. I showed the girls. "So that was what the teacher meant, I think they're planning to do a formal test tomorrow, she said if we were successful with the test tonight then they would try and get the formal test organised. Cassie, I think it's about time you started getting ready for bed." "Okay sis. Will you wash me again Martin?" "With pleasure, go and run your bath, or would you prefer a shower?" "I think I'll have a shower tonight." "Okay. Nerys, I'm going up to wash your sister and get her ready for bed." Nerys came over and kissed me. "Be good; don't do anything I wouldn't do!" "Well that won't limit me much." I grinned then kissed her and set off upstairs with Cassie. We were soon stripping off in their bathroom. I turned the shower on and waited for the temperature to stabilise. Then we were in under the shower head. I started with her hair, rubbing handfuls of shampoo into her waist length blonde hair. After it was clean I soaked it in conditioner and twisted it into a long pony tail. Then I set to wash her slim body. Her nipples were hard on her flat chest and I could feel my hands bouncing over her protruding ribs. I looked more closely at her body, at how little meat there really was. She shuddered with delight as my hand slid down and over her pussy. I tickled her lips and clit and then slid my finger just into her love tube. My other hand moved around her buttocks and a finger slid on to her little rosette. A little pressure and my finger tip was through and into her bum. She grabbed my head and kissed me hard. "Ooh that feels good Martin, can you keep doing that?" "Oh yes, no problem. I continued to play with her bum and pussy, occasionally teasing her clit as well. I soon had her body resting on me as I brought her to a thunderous climax. I slid my fingers out of her body and stood up. I then restarted on her hair, washing the conditioner out of her long hair. Finally my hands were squeaking as I slid them over the strands of hair. I took the handset and thoroughly washed her young body off before shutting off the shower. I took the first towel and roughly towel dried her hair before wrapping it in a dry towel. Then I turned to dry her body. It was a joy to take the warm thick towel and gently dry her body. My towel covered hand whispered across her thin body, bouncing on the ribs as I slid over them. I leant in to kiss her lips; my tongue pushed through and explored her warm wet cave. "Thank you Martin, that's so nice." "I'd better finish your hair before we do anything else." With that I unwrapped her hair and picked up her brush, long sweeps through her damp hair. I split it into three tails and started to plait her hair. It was soon finished, her hair swept back from her forehead and into a thick plait. Tomorrow when she brushed it out for school she would have a head of wavy hair. I stooped down and slid my hand beneath her thigh as I leant her back in my arms. I had a warm handful of body resting against me as I carried her through to her bedroom and put her on her bed kneeling up. "Will you make love to me?" For answer I dropped my lips to her breast and sucked a nipple into my mouth. I gently nipped the bud and pulled it away from her flat chest. "I do love your little fried eggs, they're so responsive." I was answered with a giggle and a ruffling of my hair. I allowed my tongue to trail down her body, dipping into her belly button en route to her pussy. I lapped up the fragrant juices that were oozing from her young pussy. A finger slid in and I reached around to tickle her G spot, now that got a reaction as her whole body strained upwards from the bed as I sucked her clit between my lips. Her whole body was rigid as her orgasm crashed through her. I lowered her backwards as her body crumpled, legs bent at the knees and her feet twisted out by her hips. It was amazing how flexible a young girl really is. I continued to finger fuck her as I moved up the bed. Once her body relaxed I brought my cock to her pussy, swiped it through the juices and then slid home. Oh how she loved that, I could feel her pussy walls rippling up and down my cock as she continued to orgasm. I could feel the pussy walls stretch over the helmet of my cock as I slid into her welcoming pussy, she was so tight I could hardly constrain myself from painting the inside of her pussy with my cum as I went in for the first stroke. I felt every ridge and bump as my cock forced its way through the tight pussy. Finally I was fully in, my helmet rubbing against her cervix. It was a delight as I moved slowly out and in her tight pussy, I was able to hold off long enough to bring her to another crashing orgasm and then I exploded. Her body jerked through the spasms of her cum. Finally we finished. Her eyes flickered as she looked at me, then they closed in sleep as her whole body relaxed. My cock slid out of her on a river of cum. I smiled as I moved off her and looked at her shortened body. "Ooh Martin, that looks to be an interesting position, how'd she get like that?" "She was kneeling up when she had her first cum and I had to lower her down. I think we'd better straighten her up or else she'll be sore when she wakes." With that I lifted her by the waist and hips as Nerys unfolded Cassie's legs. I then went through to the bathroom and cleaned up. I walked to my room to fetch my robe whilst Nerys cleaned up her little sister. Then together we went back downstairs. "Martin, can I have a snuggle?" for an answer I sat in my recliner and drew her onto my lap and kissed her. "Is this what you want?" I was answered with another kiss. "Thanks Martin, that was quite something to watch Cassie and you, you gave her so much pleasure. No one ever thought about pleasure for us, they only thought about themselves." "I'm not surprised, they'd paid for you, well your bodies, and therefore your only role was to give them pleasure." "Yeah, I see what you're saying. Martin, umm, I was talking with Ailsa about Cassie and me. "Oh yes, what about?" "Well Cassie wants to be adopted, but I don't." "You don't, why not?" "Cos I want to marry you and if you adopt me, I can't. Ailsa said that I can remain your ward, even though Cassie will be your daughter, then when I'm 16 I could marry you. With a bit of difficulty" "Ailsa knows you want to marry me?" "Oh yes, we discussed it with her at school." "Oh God, she'll be chasing after me and watching me like a hawk." "It's ok; she has worked with another family where the bride was 16, the groom 50. They actually adopted a number of children. It's only 2 years and a week until we can marry, if we want." "Are you asking me to marry you? I thought it was the man's job to propose; but anyway, I accept." I couldn't say anymore as my mouth was engulfed by Nerys'. Finally she released my lips. "Oh thank you Martin, I'm so happy, oh and Ailsa said she would be round to talk with you at 8:30 tonight, hmm, about 10 minutes time if that clocks right." "Then I'd better slip upstairs and check everything's ok." With that I went up to the bathroom and cleaned up the mess, then went into Cassie's room and made sure she was fine, she was, totally out of it with gentle sighs as she slept. I brought the duvet up and over her and gently kissed her forehead. "Night night sweetheart." There was no response; my littlest girl was spark out. I went into my room and quickly dressed. As I went down I heard the front door open and Nerys' voice. "Hello Ailsa, Martin's just checking Cassie's ok, he'll be down, no he's on his way down now. Martin, Ailsa to see you." "Hello Ailsa, come into the lounge with me." I escorted Ailsa into the lounge, Nerys went into the kitchen and I heard the kettle go on, before I could say anything Nerys was back in asking Ailsa if she wanted tea or coffee before returning to the kitchen to make her coffee. "You want to talk with me?" "Yes Martin, Cassie is no problem she just wants to be adopted; it's Nerys you need to worry about." "Oh, why's that?" "She wants to marry you Martin." "Ah, I see what you mean, but how do you feel about that; my, how do I say it, foster daughter? Yeah, I'll go with that, my foster daughter wanting to marry me." "Personally Martin I don't mind, I won't report it to my colleagues and I'll tell Nerys to keep quiet about it to the department until the day after her 18th birthday. I don't want to get caught in the flack. I have had children adopted by a mother less than 18 months older than they were and it worked very well! "She was a single mum?" "Yes, but not in the way you're thinking, she had a set of triplets and when they were less than 6 months old she was widowed, then found she was carrying her late husband's baby." "Oh wow, that must have been hard and she has since adopted more, wasn't three enough?" at that Ailsa laughed. "let's see, her stepson was a year younger than her, now I have to think this through carefully, there were 13, no 14 other children and 1 nanny, she has since remarried and had some more babies, and a couple of the children have had babies too." "Well she did say she could get married at 16." "That would give you some problems, I know it is legal but if you are a teacher then it could have repercussions. I can start the paperwork for you to formally adopt Cassie and foster Nerys." I soon completed the paperwork, I was given the tablets for Cassie to take and we were done. Ailsa finished her coffee and left for home, Nerys came over and kissed me goodnight whilst I sat with my books and computer revising and preparing for my teaching practice. Saturday came and went, Cassie was now no longer pregnant and they both started in classes at school. The weeks passed and the Saturday before Easter came around, the cremation. It had been delayed by the problems around her death. The minister had come over from Harlescott a couple of times to talk with the girls, they told him what their mum had done to them, I could see the shock on his face. Finally it was organised and Nerys took Cassie upstairs to finish packing their bags ready for the move to the new house. Every piece of furniture was marked with a coloured sticker, by far the largest number of pieces had the red markers, they were going to the furniture centre for those in need. "Martin, I'm not sure what I can say on Saturday, a mother prostituting her just teenage and pre teen daughters, words fail me." "And me, when I heard what she had done I wanted to kill her, and then, after she had died and when Cassie was shown to be pregnant I wanted to bring her back to life so I could kill her again." "I can empathise, so do I." With that he gave me a wry smile. "Well you can major on how the girls have risen above that, that they have been invited to join Mensa, that they have started at a new school where they are valued and not bullied." "Yes, that was something else I wanted to bring up. The two girls have been excluded, permanently, a lot of children came forward to say how they had been bullied and several children came forward to say that they had seen the girls carrying out acts of bullying but had been too frightened to come forward before and that receptionist has been suspended, her future is still in the balance." "Yes, not a happy school for the girls." "I'm so ashamed that I didn't pick up on the behaviour of the receptionist, looking back there were hints as to her attitude. A school is supposed to be a place of safety for our children, for heaven's sake, two of mine are still students there, but we still missed it completely, there are several other children who have been improperly treated by her. Ah well it'll all come out in the wash. Just to confirm that you'll have the main service in the church, our church would like to invite you stay afterwards for a buffet, as a number of them have children in the school and many of the children have said they want to come to the service and a buffet, then you leave for the the crem." I was left speechless at the offer and could only nod my head as the vicar stood up and left. I went up to the girls. "Have you decided how you want to go to the service, in a limo with Mary, Henry and children or two limo's?" "Two limo's please, then we're not restricted." "In which case I'll have them pick up my sister before they come here, or shall we move into the new house and go from there, the kitchen will be finished on Wednesday and I'll ask Mary to arrange for her cleaner to go in on Thursday morning and I'll confirm the movers for Thursday afternoon." "Go from the new house please." With that the decision was made. The rest of the week passed, we were moved into the new house, the day of the funeral arrived and the cortege arrived, we all went out to the cars. The girls had decided they weren't going to wear black, so I hadn't and had warned my sister and the minister. We drove swiftly around the Shrewsbury by-pass slowing down to a walking pace as we entered the road leading to the church. The vicar was waiting and led us into a packed church. I saw people in snapshot, two large groups of children, Nerys and Cassie's friends at a guess; I could see Ailsa alongside the police officer who had told the girls about their mum. It was a slow walk down the aisle behind the coffin. I had a hand in each of mine. I wondered what was going through their minds. The service went over quickly we followed the coffin back out of the church and saw it loaded into the hearse; it would drive away and come back in time to lead us to the crematorium. I walked the girls back into the church. The girls whispered in my ear that those who had teased and bullied them weren't there. I stood and talked mainly with my sister, but also some of the mums who had helped. I saw Cassie come back with a pair of twins. "Martin, is there somewhere private we can talk?" I went to the vicar and asked him, he led us through the church and behind the sanctuary to a little chapel, "You'll be private here." "What's the problem Cassie?" Janice and Ian were raped at home last night, their mum was there and she brought this man, he sounds like the man who took me and did my sister, and he had sex with both of them, they're still hurting." "Can I get Ailsa in to help and advise?" Cassie went into a huddle with the twins. Jan and Ian nodded their heads. "They want you too Martin." "Wait here, I'll go and fetch her." With that I went to the back of the church and tagged Ailsa, she came with me to the Lady Chapel. "What's the matter Martin?" "Cassie has just told me that these children's mum organised their rape last night, I guess they were in Cassie's class." Cassie nodded her head. "What are your names?" Jan replied. Ian and Janice." "Are you on your own here?" "No mums gone outside for a fag, that's why we were able to tell Cassie, we knew she had had the same thing." "Right we need to separate you from your mum, Martin, could they go to the crem with you, is their room in the car?" "That's no problem, Jan; Ian; was your mum planning on going to the crem?" "Oh no, she didn't really want to come to the service." "Right you all come back down the church with me, stay close to Cassie and point out your mum, Cassie pretend to cry on their shoulders, you two pretend to comfort her. I'll then ask your mum for permission for you to come with us to the crematorium. Ailsa, can you arrange for my doctor to meet us back at my new house to examine these two. Now Jan and Ian, do you know the man?" "Oh yes, he's with mum today, Cassie recognised him too." Ok Ailsa, is all that okay?" "Yes Martin, 3:00 PM at your new house, that's fine, I'll arrange it, if your GP can't make it then I'll get another doctor along." With that Cassie put her arms around the twins and in effect led them back down the church, Jan whispered to me that her mum was the one in the yellow fleece by the door. "Hello there, I gather you are these two children's mum," she nodded. "Well they have been very helpful comforting my ward and Cassie has asked if they can come with her to the crematorium. I'll sort them out afterwards?" "Yes they can go; they'll have to be home for tea though." "No problem, I'll sort it." With that I saw the funeral director come back in and announce that the cortege would be leaving for the crem. Nerys came over and joined us as we walked to the limo. "What's with the twins?" "Same as you, except it was last night, Ailsa knows and is arranging for the doctor to be at the house when we get home, He was with their mum and Cassie says that he was the one who took her virginity." Oh, will they do him?" "Oh yes, if the evidence is there, they took samples from the foetus last Saturday for DNA, if he was the one who made her pregnant, the police are making sure that they can catch up with him later." "That's good, Janice, Ian, if there's anything we can do to help, just ask." "Thanks Nerys, that'll be helpful." Nerys snuggled into me as the twins snuggled against Cassie. We were soon driving into the entry to the Crematorium, we followed the coffin into the chapel, the service was soon over and the curtains drawn around the coffin. We followed the funeral director out to the car, past all the floral tributes; they looked but didn't really see. The girls said goodbye to those who had come for the committal. We were then able to drive away, the twins were looking happier. We swung into the driveway of our house and stopped outside the front door. Ian and Jan looked stunned as they saw the size of the house. I led them in and through to the kitchen, I was still impressed with the look of the room with the new Aga dominating one wall. I slid the kettle onto the hot plate and asked. "Tea, coffee?" the answer from all was tea, so I pulled down the large pot and was making a pot full. I hadn't even poured out the first cups when the doorbell rang; Nerys answered and brought Ailsa, the woman police officers and the doctor through. They accepted their cups of tea, and then turned to the twins. The WPC's led off the questions. They were sensitive yet probing. After about 20 minutes the doctor asked if they could use a bedroom for a quick examination. Jan spoke up. "Can Cassie come with me please, I want to hold her hand," I could see Ian nodding his head. "Martin, we can let that happen only if you agree." "I have no problem with it, Cassie; take them up to your room." 10 minutes later Ailsa, the WPC and my doctor were back. "Cassie has taken them into the bathroom to have a bath. There was plenty of evidence for us to collect. The selfish bastard didn't use a condom. The Dr has given Jan two shots, one acts as a morning after pill, the other is a long acting contraceptive. Ian has a tear in his rectum, it doesn't need stitching, I have got a prescription for you, suppositories to kill any bugs and keep his stools soft and lubricated, you'll have to check his stools for bleeding each time he goes to the toilet for the next week, that is assuming they stay here." I looked at Ailsa. "I promised them I would ask you if they could stay. Cassie hopes they can." I looked at Nerys and she nodded. "Yes, they can stay, but what happens now?" "Well WPC Jones has been in contact with the police station, they are organising a raid for about an hour's time. I'm meeting up with them, the children have told us where everything happened, Hopefully "mummy dear" didn't clean up all the toys she used on the children as then there will be her fingerprints and the mans DNA and possibly the children's DNA on some of them, it seems she flogged them after the man had raped them, some of the wheals go across their genitals and rectum, she cut them with one of the floggers. The doctor has given them pain killers and injected antibiotics with a prescription for more. We have taken away their panties for evidence; as there is male semen, from the rapist, on both sets. We have him bang to rights, he was followed from the church and we will have him arrested at the same time as the children's mum. We will check his DNA against today's samples and from the samples retained after the abortion. He will be going down, and for quite a long time." "Thanks Ailsa; that will be good, we will look to you to keep us informed." "Of course I will, we'll be off now, would you like me to get the prescriptions for the children? I can give it to you after the arrests." "Oh yes please, that will make things easier." With that our visitors left, Nerys looked at me and said. "Has your family just grown?" "It certainly looks like it, is it a problem for you?" "I don't think so, they are Cassie's friends and they may help her come to terms with what happened. Shall we go up and check on them all?" "That sounds like a good idea to me." With that Nerys grabbed my hand and led me up to Cassie's bathroom. She knocked on the door and called out. "Can we come in." Hearing the yes answer we went in, the three of them were in the hot bath of bubbles. The twins looked cowed when they saw me come in. Cassie piped up. "You don't have to worry about Martin, he'll be good to you, heck he helped me and I have had to have an abortion as I was pregnant too. Martin, what'll the twins wear, they've got no clean clothes and the police have taken their knickers?" "Well, they're about your size, we can go and get a couple of your tracksuits for the moment, Jan can wear a pair of your knickers and Ian can go commando until Ailsa gets back and we can get their clothes this evening." "How are we going to get them? Mum won't just give them to us." "Your mum won't have any say; she and the man will be arrested in about 40 minutes. I very much doubt that you'll be living with her again." "Where will we live?" "For the moment it will be with me and the girls. We all will talk with Ailsa to see where you want to live, if you would like to stay with me permanently then I will check again with Nerys and Cassie." "Why would you need to check with them, it's your house isn't it?" "I don't operate like that, they make their own decisions, Cassie is being adopted by me, but Nerys is remaining as a ward. But this is their home as much as mine, therefore they have a say in who lives here as I do." "Oh boy, that sounds strange to me." "I'm not surprised, your mum made all the decisions in your house and some of them have affected you both very badly. The selling of your body and the rape were the most obvious ones. In her eyes it was fine to sell your body to make money for her. I am fairly certain that there will be no problem with you living here if that's what you want." "Thanks Martin, It's nice to know we'll be safe, when's Cassie coming back to school, will it be next term?" "Ah well, she has started a new school, she was being bullied both by some students and some of the support staff so she's moved, how are you enjoying school at the moment?" "Not a lot, it's better since that girl was expelled though." "Well what I want to know is what the two of you want, would you like to live here with Cassie, her sister and I?" "Would that be possible?" "Well, it depends on you and your brother being formally being taken into care; the police have taken your statements and are going to be raiding your house, hopefully they'll find physical evidence to go with your statements, and they will be taking DNA from your mum and the man. When that's all settled, then we'll know the future. In the meantime, we had better sort out some food for our dinner. So you can get out of the bath and get dried, whilst Nerys and I find you something to wear." With that Cassie pulled the plug and stood up in the bath, suds and water sluicing off her young body. "Can you shower off the soap suds dad?" "Okay." With that I took the shower head off the riser bar and started washing the soap off her. Jan stood up too. "Can you do me too?" I just turned the shower on her and then onto her brother as he stood up. Two girls and a boy all of a similar size and shape. I took a bath sheet off the towel rail and wrapped Cassie as she stepped out of the bath. Two minutes and her body was dry, then Ian was next and Jan was last. Nerys came in with two tracksuits and one pair of panties. "I didn't think you would want a pair of girl's knickers Ian." "Gosh no, I'd rather go without. They were soon clothed and ready to come downstairs with the rest of us. I took them into the kitchen and asked what they all would like for a snack. Cassie looked at me and said. "Can we have some of your pizza again dad?" "Certainly, would you like that too?" I asked the twins. I was answered with a nod of the head. I went to the dry goods cupboard and pulled out the bread flour and yeast and with a few other ingredients and soon had the pizza base dough made. I put it back in the bowl with a damp cloth over the top to prove as I opened two tins of chopped tomatoes and put them on the Aga to heat. I crushed in some garlic and added the oregano. I soon had it boiled down and ready for the bases. Then it was a matter of slicing the mozzarella cheese along with the ham and spicy sausages. I finally opened a tin of pineapple chunks to go with the ham on one of the bases. I finished that and the bread dough was ready to divide into three and I set too finishing off the pizzas, 5 minutes later they were in the oven to cook. The look on the twin's faces was a picture. "Did you really just make three pizzas, it was so quick and they look so good." Cassie, Nerys, do my pizzas taste as good as they look?" "Oh yes, Jan, Ian, your taste buds are in for a surprise, we had them when we first came here, they were ace." With that Nerys and Cassie started laying the table and getting drinks for us all, they had learnt the routine. When the pizzas were cooked I slid them out of the oven onto plates and quickly sliced them and put them on the heated serving tray. We all sat down and Cassie led the onslaught on the slices. Silence reined for the next ten minutes as slice after slice was put away. Everyone was satisfied and only three slices were left over. I smiled to see the happy faces at the table I saw a police car draw up outside the front window and said to Nerys and Cassie. "Deja-vu plus 10 minutes." They looked at me with a puzzled expression. "The police have just arrived, last time it was when I was serving your pizzas. The girls remembered and laughed. I stood up and went to the front door and opened it. I could then see Ailsa was with the two police officers. "Come on in, we have just finished some pizzas, there are three slices left over if you would like a nibble. We all went through to the large kitchen and I sat them down, they each took a slice and started eating. The look of pleasure on their faces was a delight to see. I moved back to the Aga and moved the kettle onto the boiling plate, within three minutes I had the kettle boiling; I turned back to the table and asked. "Who wants tea and whose for coffee," I counted the hands and soon had the drinks prepared and on the table. "Now I presume that you have some news for us." The WPC turned to Jan and Ian and answered. "Yes, your mother and the man you accused of raping you were found at your family home, they were in the back room and the police officer we sent round the back overheard them discussing last night and what their plans were for when you returned tonight, it did not make pleasant listening. Anyway, the detective leading the raid knocked on the door and your mother answered, he asked to come in and she agreed, she took him into the front room where she was arrested and cautioned, they then took her through to the back room and the man was arrested and cautioned. The PC guarding the back door was then let in and smiled at the couple in handcuffs and laughed at them and said. "You really shouldn't discuss your crimes in front of an open window; I heard all about last night and what you had planned for tonight." The couple then exploded and blamed each other for various things, repeating all that had been said. Fortunately I had my radio open to the control room and all that was said was recorded. We then searched the property, we got into your mums computer and found a film ready for upload to the internet, it was of last night's events. Both of them were on it, well their faces were blanked but we could recognise the room, we could see you clearly and we compared your mums birthmark, we think that it is the first time they have tried to upload a film as the welcome e mail from the site was sent this afternoon, another couple of hours and it would have been on the site and they would have had a lot of money. Because of what we have found we have obtained an emergency place of safety order for you two. Would you like to stay with Martin?" "Oh yes please." was the simultaneous answer. "Oh god, What about Jenny and Ruth, they're at scout camp till Monday. Ian and I were due to go but mum changed her mind a fortnight ago, I think I now know why." "Do you know the address of the camp site, we could then go and see them and see what they want to do." "Can you leave it Ailsa, let them have a great weekend and then we can meet them at the scout and guide hut when they return on Monday afternoon at five." "Yes Jan, we can do that, did your mum have an emergency contact number for the leaders?" "Yes, it's in her purse." "Well we'll get that and make contact with the leaders before Monday, Martin, if Jenny and Ruth want to stay with you, would it be possible?" "If these four agree then I have no problem with it, how old are the girls?" "They're twelve and a half, they're twins like us, but identical." "Nerys, Cassie, do we offer Jenny and Ruth a home as well?" They both answered together, yes!" "Well that answers that, if you will come round to your old home with Martin, then we can sort out your clothes and belongings. I'll pack Jenny and Ruth's, could we store it in your house until we know what they decide on Monday?" "No problem Ailsa, well I will have one problem, I'll need to change my car as mine only has five seats and now I'm living out in the country I need something suitable." "A social worker I know, her partner has just bought an Audi Q7, it has seven seats and four wheel drive, it's nearly 5:00 o clock now so you can still give the dealer a ring, I quickly looked up the phone number in yellow pages and got through, when I explained I really needed a car tonight and preferably a Q7 he said. "Well I do have a new one on the forecourt, it's only got delivery miles on the clock, it had been ordered and it was due to be collected yesterday but the purchaser was made bankrupt this week, and I am left with it." "We'll be with you in about 20 minutes if that's ok?" "If I can sell a car, I'll stay open." We laughed. Ailsa gave me the twins address and said; "I'll take Jan and Ian to their home; will you join us when you've sorted the car?" With that we were out of the door and in our cars and driving back to Shrewsbury. It was 5:15 as I drove onto the forecourt of the showroom, there was a gleaming blue monster of a car, I spent 15 minutes crawling over the car and liked what I saw. I then had a test drive in it, oh such luxury. "Yep, I like this car, I would like to buy it." At six o clock I was driving my new car off the forecourt. It was a lot bigger than my old car both in length and height. I had three Isofix booster cushions for my rear seats and the front passenger seat had the seat belt on its lowest height setting for Nerys. The sales manager showed me how to program the satnav with the twins address and in less than five minutes we were inside their house talking with Ailsa. "Martin, the police have been in contact with me, they would like to talk with you and me when you get back to your house, is that alright?" "Certainly, will you ring them to confirm or shall I?" "Oh I will Martin, how long do you think it will take to get home?" "I can set it up on the Satnav and it will tell me." There were four medium sized suitcases standing in the hallway. We carried them out to the car where they were swallowed up by the boot, I set the satnav for home and told Ailsa that we would be home in about fifteen minutes and then we were away. Soon we were home and unloaded. We had finished the unloading and Cassie and the twins were upstairs unpacking when the police arrived. We soon had the first part sorted. The police now had my mobile phone number so they could ring if they bailed the twins mum. "To be honest I cannot see her being bailed, the stupid mare threatened to murder the kids, we think she meant it so we are objecting to bail, I also think they should change schools, you're far enough out of town to not be easily found, but she could follow them from their old school." "Schools are no problem, Janice can go with Cassie and Nerys to Shrewsbury High School, and I can get Ian into the prep school for Shrewsbury school. They should be able to start after Easter. If Jenny and Ruth do decide to stay with me I'll get them into Shrewsbury high school as well. Now if their mother should get bail, I need an injunction forbidding her coming within 400 metres of them. I'll also need the name of a security consultant who will be able to keep them safe." "I can arrange the injunction with no problem and I can get the security chaps name with one phone call." Her phone was soon in her hand. "Hi Natalie, you remember that security consultant that Roy used? Do you have his number?" There was a pause and then Ailsa was writing down a number as she spoke back what she had heard. There was some small talk before the phone was put away. "Here you are Martin, this guy is good, from the house alarm to inbuilt people locators if they should be kidnapped; tell him you were recommended by Natalie Dunne McGarvy." I took the phone number and put it in my wallet. "The other number is for a martial arts school, along with all the normal disciplines he does a self defence class, your children will be helped by that, it will give them more self confidence. I have spoken with him already before I got here; he's expecting your call." I pulled the piece of paper and rang the man, we quickly arranged a session for the morning and he told me where he was based and how to get there. We then heard a call from upstairs, Cassie wanted me, so we all went up to see how they were getting on. I got to the top of the stairs and called, there was a response from the back of the house. We followed our ears and found Cassie and the twins in the second suite which was decorated but bare. "Dad, could the three of us take this end over, Jan and I in this room, Ian in the smaller room and through here could be our study and playroom. Then Jenny and Ruth could be in my old room." "I've got no problem with that, we can move the beds and other furniture down with no problem from the other bedrooms. You have your own bathroom through here" I took Ailsa through to see it; I could see the look of amazement on her face. With that I led everyone back to the furnished bedrooms and we set too to move things through for the children, in under an hour we had the suite furnished and the children were unpacking their suitcases. Ailsa took her leave and headed off home with appointments for us to meet up on Easter Monday when Jenny and Ruth returned to the scout headquarters. Whilst Nerys and I were downstairs I got a phone call to say that the twins mum was being remanded in custody along with the man. I was relieved as that meant the twins were safe for the time being. "Martin, what's it going to mean with you having the twins here as well as us?" "Well you and I will have to be more discreet, me and Cassie, I have no idea about, it could go one of two ways, one she stops her affair with me, and then the twins and she grow up as normal 11 year olds, or she continues to have sex with me and Janice and Ian may or may not get involved, or anything in between." "But what do you want to happen?" "What do I want, I want you to be happy, and that's whether or not you have sex with me and I want Cassie, Janice, Ian, Jenny and Ruth to be happy as well. I think you have already decided what you want to happen between us two, you want to marry me as soon as you are old enough." I smiled to see Nerys nodding her head in agreement. "I will just have to work it very carefully regarding school. But if you change your mind and want to choose someone else, well that's your prerogative. Come here and have a cuddle." She slid over the arm of the recliner arm chair and into my arms. "This is what I want, up close and personal with my lover." I silenced her with a long kiss on her lips, my tongue exploring into the depths of her mouth. "Oh Nerys, I love you." With that we settled down in each others arms, tired out from all the emotions and activities of the day. We sat there enjoying each others company, her hard body painted alongside mine. Sharing kisses as our lips drew close to each other. Finally Cassie and the twins came back down and joined us. "Janice and Ian, I have been told that your mother has been remanded in custody until Tuesday, She and the man will then go before the magistrates, you will be seen by the magistrates before the hearing, they will hear from you and the police why the man and your mother should remain in custody, then they will be given the opportunity to apply for bail, it is 90% certain that the application will be turned down. Then it will be a matter of waiting for them to go to the crown court for trial. But we will deal with that nearer the time. There is one thing I have forgotten, that I meant to do this afternoon, and that is go shopping, we need to get some meat for tomorrow, we can't do it tomorrow as the shops are shut on Easter Day. Does anyone want to come with me?" only Nerys did; so we put our shoes and coats on and drove through the dusk of evening towards the Sainsbury's store on the outskirts of Shrewsbury. I already had Easter eggs for Nerys and Cassie but I needed to get them for the twins, then we had to decide on dinner for tomorrow, that was easy, there was a lovely leg of lamb on the fresh meat counter and we decided on that for tomorrow and some pork loin steaks for tonight, we just needed the veggies to go with that. Our tasks were soon completed and we headed back home. Nerys and I soon had the shopping put away and were preparing our evening meal, pork steaks cooked in foil with apple and butter, jacket potatoes with French beans and carrots, not a lot of work but very tasty, soon the five of us were sat around the dining room table ready to eat our fill. I could see Jan and Ian were looking uncertain. So I asked. "What's the problem?" Jan replied. "Well it's sitting round a table with knives and forks laid out; not in the kitchen or the sitting room with a tray. Nor with food in bowls in front of us." "Well this is for two reasons, one I don't know what you like, apart from pizza and two I don't know how much you want. So what we have is the pork steaks with apple sauce, you take one of those to start, with the tongs, then there's the jacket potato, you take one, cut it in half and score it like this." Here I demonstrated and as I continued to explain put a large knob of butter on the potato. "Then you use the serving spoons to take which veg you want then finally the gravy. The tray is heated so the food will keep warm for seconds if you want; so tuck in." I smiled quietly as I watched them take their food, then they watched me to see which cutlery to use. The meal was a great success. The discussions over the meal revealed that their previous diet consisted of fish fingers, sausages and tinned spaghetti Bolognese along with bread and jam and bread and peanut butter. Ah well they would develop some new tastes along the way. We settled down for the evening, Jan and Ian went up with Cassie to use her computer; Nerys drew me to the lounge where she had lit the woodburning stove, she drew me down on the rug in front of the glowing embers. "The others are busy, will you make love to me darling?" I answered her with a kiss and ran my hands under her jumper. My hands landed on her bare breasts. "I'm sure you had a bra on earlier." "I did, I took it off before we ate, I knew what I wanted to do after dinner." "Oooh you!" and with that I resumed the kiss and teased her little nipples, Nerys was sliding my sweatshirt up my body so I reciprocated and slid her jumper off, our bodies toasted in the warmth from the wood fire. I reached down and unclipped her skirt, she lifted her cute bum to let me slide her skirt and panties down. I followed down her body kissing on my way, her nipples, her belly button and on down to her little pussy, her juices were misting her lips as I firstly savoured the aroma before licking from her clit to her little star, the slightest hint of pee and the nectar of her juices. I felt her loosening my belt and buttons on my trousers and lifted my hip from the floor in response to her urging. My trousers and pants were soon sliding down my legs. Then I felt her warm lips engulf the helmet of my cock. I lifted my mouth from her hot pussy. "Oh Nerys, that feels so good." Then she grasped my waist and drew me closer to her face, I felt my cock reach the back of her throat, there was a movement and I slid further in, suddenly my pubes were touching her lips, oh the joys as she swallowed with my cock lodged within her throat. My first jets were pouring straight down her throat when she pushed me up and brought my spurting cock into her mouth, her lips swiping the helmet as more spurts of cum jetted out. Finally a convulsive swallow and a last lick of the helmet and she slid her head off of me. "I knew I could do that if I tried, I knew it could be done as I had seen mum do it." I returned my lips to her clit and mumbled it with lip covered teeth. I slid two fingers into her pussy and angled them to reach her G spot, I soon had her writhing in joy. I could feel her wet tunnel spasming around my fingers as my tongue lapped up what seemed like rivers of her juices. My cock had hardened again and so I slid around her body, scooped her legs onto my shoulders and slid my cock home into her steaming pussy in one smooth operation, as I reached her depths I swivelled my hips to rub her clit against my pubes as I bottomed out; her orgasm swelled again as I continued to thrust into her receptive body. I could feel my pressure building until we both blew together, I crushed down into her, her clit squeezed between our pubes and her voice blending with mine as we cried out our joy. I slumped down, my weight was supported on my bent elbows and my cock was shrinking and being pushed out of her pussy by the ebbing spasms of her orgasm. Suddenly we heard a voice by the door. "Martin, Nerys, can I join you? Cassie is playing with my brother and I'm alone." Nerys and I split apart and looked towards the door; there stood Jan, her hand inside her waistband and very evidently playing with herself. "Come on over and sit by us in front of the fire." Jan moved across, her hand staying inside her panties, then she gracefully dropped to the rug to sit by us. "What do you actually want to do with Nerys and me?" "Well what you were doing to Nerys looked nice, she seemed to be really enjoying herself, when that man did that to me; it just hurt me and he made me cry." Nerys moved across to kneel beside Jan and lifted her jumper over her head; her nipples were rigid on little pads of flesh. Then she helped Jane by undoing the buckles and pin of her kilt skirt, the material dropped away leaving Jan's hand sliding in and out of her pussy, her knickers pushed down to allow access. I could see the marks left on her from the flogging she had received; I moved across and nibbled on Jan's clit, her fingers were sliding in and out of her pussy below my lips. I could see Nerys move in and take Jan's nipple into her mouth. Jan was soon writhing in delight, crying out her joy as her body reacted to our attentions. I pulled Jan's fingers from her dripping slit and replaced them with mine. Now I really went to work on her, nibbling gently on her clit as I slid two fingers in to engage with her G spot. Jan went wild as her body responded to our ministrations. All her muscles locked up as her pussy spasmed around my fingers, her back arched leaving her head and neck supporting her body at one end and her feet at the other. Finally her body relaxed and she dropped back onto the rug. Nerys spoke to her. "Jan, do you want Martin to make love to you as well?" "Oh god, yes please." With that I moved over her recumbent body and Nerys led my cock to Jan's pussy and guided me in, oh how tight she was, I could feel every ridge and bump in her sweet pussy as I slid in, Jan put her arms around my neck and drew my lips in for a kiss. I couldn't fit all of my cock in and Nerys reached between us to stimulate Jan's clit for me. We soon had her crying out as she orgasmed under our dual attacks on her young body. Three cums later and I was ready to join her in an orgasm. I shot my cum deep into her young body. As I released my cum she cried out. "Oh I feel it, I feel it, so hot jetting in me," then she slumped down, we had wiped her out. Her pussy kept contracting pushing me out of her along with an upwelling of my cum. Nerys moved in and cleaned up her sodden pussy, licking all my cum from her, sucking her young pussy clean of my spend. When she had a mouthful she moved up Jan's body and kissed her, I could see that she was sharing what she had hoovered from Jan's pussy; Jan was sleepily enjoying the combination of flavours she was receiving from Nerys. Nerys then turned to me. "Martin, I think this answers the first part of the question, Jan wants to be involved with you and me, whether she also wants to be involved with Cassie and Ian, I don't know and I certainly don't know about Jenny and Ruth." "That's alright Nerys, we'll just wait and see. Shall we take her up to our room?" "That's a good idea, I think she is out for the night." I moved onto my knees and scooped Jan into my arms, Nerys then helped me to stand with my precious burden and then led me up to our bedroom, turning lights off and closing doors behind us, we stopped by our bed and Nerys stripped the remainder of Jan's clothes and then folded back the duvet. I laid Jan onto the bed and lay beside her as Nerys went into the bathroom to shower and prepare for bed, she took over from me when she was finished and I carried out my night time tasks, I slid in behind Nerys and spooned up to her young smooth body. I pulled the light cord and within minutes we were all asleep. The weekend passed and we all drove across Shrewsbury to meet at the scout hut where Jenny and Ruth were due to return with their scout troop. Jan and Ian stayed in the car with Cassie. Nerys and I met up with Ailsa as we waited. Finally the coach arrived and the scouts poured out, slightly more boys than girls. We watched as the leaders organised the unloading of the rucksacks' and the troop equipment. In less than half an hour the equipment was back in the stores and the scouts were leaving with their parents. Ailsa went across to the troop leader, who was standing with two young girls, then beckoned us over. We all went into the scout hut and into the leader's office; I could see the girls were looking very wary. The leader took the lead. "Jenny and Ruth, your younger brother and sister are staying with Martin at the moment, there is no easy way to say this but your mother sold their virginities to a man who raped them both. They then met up with Nerys here and her sister Cassie at their mum's funeral, they knew something similar had happened to them. Martin has already taken in your siblings and he is offering you two a new home, if you don't want to go with your siblings then Ailsa here can organise your admission into a children's home. If you're not sure which is best I believe your siblings are outside in Martin's car." I then spoke up. "I'll go and fetch Janice and Ian to talk with you if you want." "It's alright Mr.,, Mr., err." My name's Martin, that's all you need for the moment." "Martin, I think we would like to stay with you." It was a joint statement by the identical twins; I could see that they had their own private communication system. With that I signed the forms that Ailsa was holding and picked up the girls rucksacks' and headed back to the car, we were soon heading round the bypass and heading for home, we had a busy few days ahead of us organising new schools for the new additions to my family. We had just cleared up after dinner, Jenny and Ruth had bathed and changed into their nighties before dinner. I was in my study doing some of my preparation for the new term when Jenny and Ruth walked in. "Martin, can we talk with you?" "Certainly, what's troubling you?" "Mums been selling us for the last eighteen months, we just wish we had been brave enough to try and get help when it started happening, maybe Jan and Ian wouldn't have suffered what we have suffered, it's our fault they were raped." "Stop right there, the only people responsible for what happened to Jan and Ian is your mum and the pervert she sold them to. Would you have known who to go to for help certain that you would have been safe?" "No, I don't suppose we did." "That's it, now stop blaming yourself, we'll call your brother and sister down, along with Nerys and Cassie and you can share what happened to you. I'll ring my doctor tomorrow and arrange for him to meet up with Ailsa and the police to take your statements and you can then join your siblings when they talk with the magistrates. Actually I'll ring Ailsa now to give her advance warning." I picked up my phone and hit speed dial 1, I had used that number so many times I had finally got around to setting up my speed dial system. My call was soon answered. "Hi Ailsa, we forgot to ask one very important question of Jenny and Ruth this afternoon, they are now feeling guilty that they didn't find someone who could protect their siblings, they were mums first foray into child sex and money raising. I had originally thought that I would speak to you and the police and doctors tomorrow, but I thought I had better give you a heads up tonight." "Thanks Martin, I think I had better see if I can get everyone round to you now, if that's convenient?" "No problem Ailsa, I'll wait to hear from you about times." "Well it will take about 5 minutes for the phone calls and then 25 minutes to drive to your house, I'll see you in half an hour." With that we said our goodbyes and hung up. The police were first to arrive quickly followed by Ailsa and finally the doctor. The story was soon out, every month to six weeks when Jan and Ian were out or away they were each raped by up to 6 men in a session; and no they hadn't used contraception. When the doctor heard that he pulled two boxes from his case and led the girls, at my direction to the toilet, he had a grim face when he returned. "I'll need to examine them properly, they're both pregnant, looking at them it's not well established. I'll need to get them scanned so we can estimate dates, then we can talk with them about what we do then. I'll take a few samples now, Ailsa would you be with me?" Ailsa and the doctor then took the girls up to their bedroom so that he could examine the girls in comfort. Ten minutes later they were all down again. The doctor led the talk. "Well at a guess they are between 5 and 11 weeks pregnant, that's based on their periods and when they were raped. They aren't sure what they want to do, whether to have an abortion or have the children, would it be possible for them to stay here, even though they are pregnant?" I turned to face the girls. "Of course you can, as I said to Cassie, if you want the baby, then I will be converting a room into a nursery, if you don't want to keep the baby then I will help either with the arrangements for an abortion, or to have the child adopted after birth. The choice is yours, but rest assured we will support you no matter what your decision." With that I opened my arms to them and they ran into them for a hug. I whispered to them. "It's your choice and I'll make sure you have the time and information to make an informed decision." I stood there hugging my two new girls; I could feel they were sobbing gently by the way my shirt was starting to get wet. The WPC then asked the girls if they knew the identity of any of the men who had raped them. I felt Jenny's sobs turn to a chuckle. "Oh yes, I have identity and proof, well I hope the proof will be still useable. I'll just get it." With that she slipped from my arms and ran upstairs to their bedroom. Two minutes later she was down with a non descript cardboard box. She opened it and started taking out little bags and bottles, the bottles were labelled. "Jan didn't know what was in this box but she knew it was very important to me so she packed it for me when she moved here. I have to confess that I stole these bottles from school after the second time we were raped. I knew then that this would continue. As part of their humiliation of us we had to pick up their clothes and brush them and fold them, I became quite adept at slipping cards out of their wallets, I have driver's licences, and credit cards etc from different wallets, I only ever took one item from a wallet. The other thing was we had to clean ourselves up every so often, as they said they wanted clean tight cunts, we had to go into the bathroom and wash each other out with iced water, before I did that I took samples of the stuff running out of our cunts and sealed them and hid the bottles before washing each other out. Some of these bottles contain stuff from more than one man. Will that cause a problem?" "That'll be no problem whatsoever; well not as far as you are concerned. A different matter for the men who raped you, we'll have them bang to rights along with your mother." "Oh good, I can't wait to see them all in court." "Seeing I have 7 driving licences and 8 credit cards all with different names I can't see any problem with arresting them. It'll take about half an hour to get addresses to go with the credit cards. So I would say that seeing it is only nine fifteen we will arrange the knocks for tonight. I'll just sign for this evidence and get back to the station. Martin can I borrow your phone for a minute, I don't want any chance of these men being warned by listeners on the radio." "Go ahead, it's over there." With that the WPC was soon speaking reading in the details the names on the credit cards and the licence number and address on the licences. Five minutes later the police were away leaving Ailsa and the doctor. "Well done for getting that proof, I had better take mouth swabs from you so that your DNA can be excluded from the samples." With that he swabbed the girl's mouths and took his leave. Nerys came in with a tray of drinks for us all. We then sat down and set too to re-assure Jenny and Ruth that we would still want them no matter what they decided regarding their pregnancies. We went upstairs and Nerys and I went through into our bathroom whilst Jenny and Ruth went to their room, or so we thought. It was only as we climbed into bed that we discovered that we had visitors; we kissed them gently and then settled down to sleep, closely entwined together. There was going to be a lot to deal with in the days and weeks to come. ------- Chapter 3 Days passed, weeks passed, we heard that the results had come back on the DNA samples, the twin's mum and her male friends appeared at the Magistrates court, it took three sittings as there were so many of them. The major crimes were rape and statutory rape along with grievous bodily harm, some of the men protested that they had permission from the children's mum to have sex. The magistrates' words in reply were icy. "Did you have the permission of Jennifer, Ruth, Nerys, Cassie, Janice and Ian? No you didn't, you couldn't as they were all under the age of sixteen; in fact all of them were under the age of thirteen: I'm remanding you all in custody to The Crown Court. Threats have been made against these children so I am ensuring they are kept safe. I have been told that there is not sufficient room at the local Crown Court, so the case will be moved to the Central Criminal Court in London. Take them down." With that I left the courtroom and went to rejoin my children who had all given their evidence via video link. Jenny and Ruth had had their abortions, they had decided that they wanted to have as near a normal rest of their childhood as they could and carrying the child of one of their rapists wouldn't help with that. Jenny, Ruth and Janice all joined Nerys and Cassie at the high school whilst Ian was accepted into the prep school. I was doing my teaching practice at the high school and finally sorted out my investment strategy. My old school friend, Dave, had joyfully handed in his notice at the Macdonald's restaurant and was now using his college training and expertise on my new farm along with his girlfriend. Two polytunnels had already gone up behind the farmhouse, they would be used for successional sowings of vegetables and salads; an orchard of mixed fruit trees had been planted. Then the rest of the work started. There was going to be a belt of trees right around the farm, some for coppicing and the rest for long term timber production. Then the fields were ploughed and seeded for feed for the livestock we were bringing in, cows, pigs, lambs and poultry. Dave had invited two of his colleagues and their girlfriends from Harper Adams University College, the local farming college to join him and his girlfriend. They all lived in the farmhouse. Those six along with the one farm hand from the previous owner made for a great team. They had so many ideas about how to farm for us. Their first priority was to be food for my sister and my families along with food for themselves. Dave was amazed when he realised my first priority was sustainability and not profit, food for the nuclear family as it were. That was the reason for planting a holly hedge right around the estate; it was three bushes deep between the trees for timber and the original fence line, it was even planted to enclose my sisters and my houses to keep us secure. We had applied for permission to erect large electric gates at each end of our joint driveway and another on the access track to the farm. It was a matter of being a self sufficient enclave. The weekend of the spring bank holiday, the last Monday in May, had finally arrived; the children had finished school on the Friday to have the week off. I had finished my teaching practice and would be leaving for Cambridge on Saturday for my final exams. My sister Mary and her children Jane and Hugh were coming with me and my children to stay at The Gonville Hotel which was just around the corner from Hughes Hall and a mile from the education faculty where I would take my exams. My last exam was on the 29th of May and the following night, the Saturday was the college celebration meal, Formal hall. I had bought tickets for us all, I had obtained special permission from the senior tutor to bring my children to this meal as usually no guests were allowed for the final formal hall of term and certainly children were not normally allowed. However it hadn't taken long for my story to get around the college and people wanted to meet them all. Mary had taken them all out to buy dresses and suits for the Formal hall whilst I was busy studying. She and her two children were actually leaving on the Friday evening after I returned from Walsall as they had some things they had to do and so wouldn't be joining us at formal hall. It was a busy week, I had exams on the Monday and Tuesday in Cambridge On the Wednesday I had booked the college punts; we had lashed them together and Mary and I punted our children along the backs. It was a pleasant experience as we punted along behind the colleges. I pointed out my old college as we made our way along the busy Cam and we had to be careful not to run down other punts as we made our majestic way along the river towards the rollers. We pulled around to the old mill and tied up alongside the restaurant for our meal, the punts held steady by their poles rammed into the mud of the river bottom. We enjoyed our Pizza's and Pasta. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in the late spring sunshine as we slowly punted back to the boat house. We were having an easy day as on the Thursday and Friday morning I would be in Walsall for my exams whilst Mary would take out all the children in the hired minibus. But for today we were just enjoying ourselves. Finally as the day wore on we took the children to the theatre. It gave me a break from my studies and the children had seen a new world, I had taken them into Hughes Hall to show them my college. I had seen all my children settle down for the night; just Nerys was left with me as I sent down for a late night snack and hot drink. Mary had taken her two back into her suite as the waitress brought up the tray for Nerys and I. Hot chocolate and cheese and biscuits went down a treat as we sat up in bed. "Martin, how do you get to go to Cambridge?" "Why, are you thinking about coming?" she came over and sat on my lap. "Oh no, Jenny and Ruth said they would like to come here, Mary took us round the colleges, well we couldn't go in as they all said closed." "I'll ring one of my friends who is just finishing his final year and arrange a time to visit, then I'll also arrange for them to meet the access officer from the student union, they can talk openly about their past and then they can receive guidance about applying under the special access scheme, but that's not for a few years yet, would you like to go to uni?" "No, I want to be with you." With that she caught my lips in hers and kissed me. We moved down the bed and slid under the covers of our bed. My fingers gently played across her firm body as we kissed deeply. Her nipples like small wine corks, just begging to be sucked, so I did; as my fingers slid down her young body I felt the dry lips of her pussy and gently brushed my finger along them and then through them into their moist depths, I spread her juices around and drew the sensations from her body, I could feel her pleasure rising as I moved further down her body and reached for her clit with my lips. I pushed deeper into her pussy first with one finger and then a second as I angled my hand to allow me to reach her G spot, oh how her body reacted to the sensations I was giving her. I soon had her climbing to her first orgasm of the night, and then her second. As she started to climb to her third I moved my arms to scoop up her slim legs and raised them up to bring my cock to the entrance to her enchanted grotto and slid home into her sopping depths. I ground my pubis into hers on each stroke bringing her to the peak of her pleasure before my cock exploded, pouring out my cum into the depths of her receptive pussy as she cried out. "Oh that's so hot, thank you darling." She slid her legs off my shoulders and around my waist and started humping up into me as she came for the third time. I held tight to her and rolled firstly onto my side and then onto my back bringing Nerys with me, her eyes had closed so I gently kissed them and closed mine, we had soon dropped off to sleep. I woke to the knock on my door signalling the arrival of tea and coffee. I kissed my darling Nerys. "Wake up darling, tea and coffee's here." She responded with a series of grunts before she rolled off me, I had fallen out of her at some time in the night. I slid out of bed and headed for the door to the suite. "Aren't you going to put on a gown?" --"Ooops." I snagged the white terry gown and opened the door to the suite. I picked up the tray and as I moved back into our room I noticed the waitress bring the tray to the next room, good job my darling had reminded me or else I would have been giving the young waitress an eyeful. I put the tray on the table and then poured out the teas and coffees for us all. I gave Nerys her coffee and then took the tray through into the other rooms for the other children. I swallowed my first cup and moved into the bathroom for my shave and shower. Within half an hour they all were ready to move down to the dining room for breakfast, when we were all finished I took my leave and headed out to the airport where the helicopter was waiting to fly me to Walsall where I had my last day and a half of exams. ------- Finally, my exams were over, I flew back to Cambridge airport where I was met by my sister and all the children. We went via the hotel where Mary and her children left us to return to Shrewsbury and the rest of us went across to Trinity Hall for lunch. After we had eaten I introduced Jenny and Ruth to my old Director of Studies in the senior common room. They talked about how their interest in law had been sparked by how they had been mistreated and raped. My DoS called to a colleague who was the DoS for the law students who questioned Jenny and Ruth on their past life, he was incredibly kind in his manner. He finally turned to me. "Martin, I followed your career at Hughes Hall and Walsall closely, it was such an unusual outcome. However if these two continue to show their interest and aptitude for law, then although I will still have to interview them in 5 years time, I will offer them both a place. I have a slight advantage over you, your solicitor, John, was one of my better students and he asked my advice about who to get to represent these children in court and I was very pleased to help him. Would you like to visit the Law Faculty, it's closed today but of course I have access." I could see Jenny and Ruth nodding vigorously and the others seemed interested so we followed him out through the back gate of the college and across Garratt Hostel Lane Bridge and on to the Law faculty. Jenny and Ruth were fascinated to be shown around and were more determined than ever to come to Cambridge. We walked back towards Trinity Hall, admiring the view across the backs towards Kings College and Clare College. It was a stunning view, a much more open vista than the one we had from the punts. We joined the senior tutors in the senior common room for afternoon tea before heading back across Cambridge to the hotel to change ready for formal hall. The hotel had arranged for a minibus taxi to pick us up to take us to Hughes Hall, that way although I didn't plan on getting drunk I didn't have to worry about drink driving. We arrived early, Ian was wearing a suit and the girls were in formal dresses whilst I was wearing my gown and BA hood over my suit. I was greeted at the entrance to the Peter Richards room by the Duty Fellow who had been detailed to look out for me and my entourage. We were led across and I introduced my family to the president before we moved on to circulate, I was offered a glass of sherry and a waitress came over with a tray of soft drinks for the children. We were soon included in a group of my friends who made friends with my children, who were the only "guests" at the dinner, it being the last formal hall of term. Finally at 7:30 the gong rang out and the president invited everyone to move into the dining hall. We filled up, Nerys was beside me and the others were spread through my group of friends. I could see them swivelling their heads as we moved into the hall. We stood behind our chairs whilst the president said grace in Latin and then we sat down. Waitresses brought the starters round and the noise level dropped as talk gave way to eating. Three courses later the president stood to give his closing speech. "Many of you here have noticed that we have some guests tonight. Martin Rogers asked for special permission to bring his wards. Five of them he is in the process of adopting, the sixth only wants to be his ward. These children have had a terrible year and when Martin approached me and asked about tonight I thought it right and proper to recommend to the committee that we accept his guests for tonight. Martin didn't think he would be able to take up his place here last Michaelmas term as his parents had been in a terrible car smash. He in fact started the term at his local university as his mother was gravely ill. She died less than halfway through term and we invited Martin to try and pick up his studies here, this meant he has been doing two post graduate courses, then to add to his workload in March he took in Nerys and Cassie and at Easter he took in the rest of the children and still he prepared for two sets of exams, we and the college in Walsall were kind to him, we only asked him to work in one school to satisfy the requirements of two courses for his school experience." He paused and received the laughter he had aimed for. "Martin doesn't know what is about to happen, will you come up here please?" I looked at my mob seated around me and shrugged my shoulders, slid off the bench seat and moved to stand in front of the master at the top table. "There is an award, which is in the gift of the President and fellows for the student who has done the most to enhance the reputation of Hughes Hall, Hughes Hall is the oldest Cambridge Graduate colleges and we have looked back in our records and to our understanding Martin is the first student to do what he has done. Your Director of Studies in Walsall has given me permission to tell you that not only did you pass your exams here in Cambridge but you also came top in Walsall. Martin, we have been very sneaky this week, we talked with your sister and your wards, plus the head teacher at the school you did your placement at. You have a job at that school for the next year so that you can complete your registration year. Then we would like to invite you back to Cambridge to do your PhD. We are in discussions with Trinity Hall as to who will provide accommodation for you and your children here in Cambridge. I can see your children are smiling. They have been keeping an even bigger secret from you. They have been to The Leys School this week and have been offered places for when you come up." I was beyond stunned, Nerys came up and slid her arm around my waist and whispered. "It looks like I need to hold you up darling." I could only nod in agreement. I turned to the president of the college. "Madame President. I can only thank you and accept this award with thanks. No doubt before tonight is over I will have heard the whole story. I'm looking across at my undergraduate DoS who I was with this afternoon and who didn't give me the slightest hint of what was to come. I am privileged to accept this award, this year has seemed to be endlessly spent on the cross country trains between Walsall and here, and making sure the right essays didn't end up at the wrong destination; neither of my directors of studies wanted me to give up their course, well I made it and am very glad this year is over and in sixteen months time I look forward to joining you here again to study for my PhD. As for my children, well I can excuse them as their past has been truly appalling. To all those who arranged this, I can only offer a big thank you from the bottom of my heart." As I finished I was greeted with a wall of applause and cheers from my fellow students. I could see a couple of Fellows collecting my children and then we were led through to join those who had so surprised me. There was a muffled pop from a bottle of champagne and before I could do anything else I was presented with a glass of the bubbles. I couldn't even take a first sip as a toast was raised for me, after that I could join in with the drinking. Nerys remained attached to me at the hip as we talked with the fellows. The other children had moved to a TV in the corner where it turned out they were watching DVD's and drinking fizzy pop. I was glad I didn't have to think about driving back to the hotel that night. The taxi took us back to the hotel and I rolled into bed. Finally we left for home on the Sunday after our breakfast. The Audi smoothly cruised the motorways to home and where we unloaded and the school uniforms were got ready for the next days' school. Janice and Ian were first up to bath and asked me to help them with their hair. Then Jenny and Ruth took their turn, "Martin, we haven't wanted to talk with you about this before but we've had some problems at school, it seems one of the girls in a form above us is related to one of the men who raped us, she called us prossies in front of some of our class mates, what could we say?" "Yes, I can see the problem; I think we should see the headmistress tomorrow before school starts and discuss your futures, and the future of this girl." "Could we start at the Leys sooner than next year?" "What about Janice and Ian?" "Janice probably would, she knows that what happened to us happened to her and so she could get bullied as well, if she was to start at the Leys, Ian would want to join her." "Okay then, we'll talk about this at breakfast, then at school." I went along to Cassie's room, she was already in bed, I went over and kissed her goodnight. "Have you heard about Jenny and Ruth's problems at school?" "No, should I?" "No, I just wondered, it seems that a girl in school is related to one of the abusers and is bullying them, they want to start at the Leys as soon as possible. We are going to sort this out tomorrow." With that I went downstairs to join Nerys. I walked into the lounge and joined her on the sofa; she immediately snuggled into my side. "Hi lover, we have problems with Jenny and Ruth; an older girl is causing problems because one of her relatives is involved in the case; they are asking if they can start at The Leys early, I don't have a problem with that." "Nor me, but what are you going to do in the meantime?" --"We go into see the head mistress tomorrow and go from there. I'll get the solicitor to come in with the paper work for the case." ------- "Well Martin, what's so important that you interrupt my first coffee of the school day?" I could see she wasn't really worried by the smile on her face. "Jenny and Ruth have told me that an older girl has been causing them trouble, it seems that a relative of this girl is one of the accused and she won't believe that he is guilty. My solicitor will be in later this morning with a transcript, showing the evidence against the man. I think we will need to prove to the girl that her relative is going to be found guilty. Jenny and Ruth have been offered places along with the rest of my children at the Leys school in Cambridge next year, oh I haven't told you yet, I have been asked to return to Cambridge next year to do my PhD. They are asking if they can go early." "Oh wow, that's something else. I'm so pleased for you Martin." My phone went off and it was my solicitor confirming he could be in for 10:30. I then headed off to the staff room to prepare for my first lesson. Finally it was time to go to the Heads office and meet up with my solicitor and the head mistress and the girl's head of year. "Martin, I spoke with the girl briefly this morning, it seems mummy has told her that your girls were at fault, that the girls uncle would never do such a thing and that Jenny was telling lies about the men." "Ah that does make a difference, the poor girl must be so confused, I think we call mum in for this afternoon." With that she picked up the phone and was quickly in contact with the mum. She explained to the mum that her daughter had a problem but it should be able to be sorted. 2 o clock came round and we all met with the mother first. I led off. "Now your brother is in trouble with the police isn't he?" "Well yes, but it wasn't his fault." Unfortunately the police have the evidence to prove that he is guilty of rape and statutory rape, plus some other charges. One of the children he had sex with, as part of her humiliation had to fold his clothes and put them away, she extracted his driving licence from his wallet at the same time as she took samples of the semen oozing from her vagina. The DNA testing proved that he had deposited it, in fact the DNA from the aborted foetus proved that he was in fact the father." The mother just sat there looking stunned at the revelations about her brother. "The problem we now have is that Rowena has spread some part truths around the school about Jenny and Ruth. I think the first thing we do is we have Rowena in here and I'll ask you to explain the truth about her uncle to her." John's phone interrupted us and we couldn't help but overhear that the court case would open next Monday at the Old Bailey. "You heard, court is next week, we will need to meet up with the defence barrister, probably Friday, I'll confirm that with you." There was a knock on the door and the head of year brought Rowena into the heads office, she was led across to the conference area. The head started. "Rowena, your mother has some information to give to you which you will find shocking." With that her mother started to explain that yes, Uncle Bill had had sex with Jenny and Ruth, he had made one of them pregnant, that was proved by the DNA of the aborted foetus. He had paid the girl's mother to have sex with the children. His driving licence had been taken by one of the girls and kept with a sample of semen he had put into her. I have seen copies of the proof from the girl's solicitor. Uncle Bill will be going to prison for a considerable number of years." With that Rowena was in floods of tears. "Why did he do it to them mummy, why? Wasn't I good enough for him?" there was a stunned silence in the room as we took in what Rowena had said. "Are you saying that Uncle Bill had sex with you Rowena?" "Yes mummy, every time he's babysat me, well forever." It was now a case of reporting Rowena's abuse and I would have to talk with Jenny and Ruth. A message was sent to their classrooms for them to come to the heads study, Rowena and her mum were taken to the nurse's office along with my solicitor. I borrowed the phone and rang the Leys school. I explained to the head teacher what had happened here and he said he could take in as many of my family who wanted to start early as boarders. I thanked him and said that I would be back in contact later that afternoon and that the children's court case started next Monday. I had just finished the phone call when my girls arrived. "Jenny, Ruth, we have just discovered one of the reasons Rowena behaved as she did, her Uncle has been abusing her for as long as she can remember. She had also been told that there was no real evidence against her Uncle Bill. She's now talking with her mum and our solicitor. I have spoken with the headmaster at The Leys and he says he can take you and your Siblings as soon as you wish. Now the question I have for you two is what do we do about Rowena?" "We don't want to let on to the school about what her uncle has been doing to her. She's going to need a lot of help without that, what about we have an assembly, tell everyone what happened to us, that Rowena's uncle was involved, that her mother hadn't believed it so of course Rowena didn't believe it. We have shown her the evidence that her Uncle Bill had raped us. That Rowena needs some time off for counselling and will return on Monday. We judge how it's been received and either take the rest of this week off, or come into school. If we need the time off, we'll start at The Leys as soon as court is finished. Would that be ok?" I turned to the head mistress. "Can we do that, an assembly this afternoon?" --"That'll be no problem Martin, I'll organise it for last period today." And so it happened, my girls were on the stage with Rowena and the head mistress who explained our version of events, we could see lots of nodding heads as people who had heard Rowena's version now understood the truth as we wanted it understood. At the end of assembly the girls came down from the stage and mingled. Their report back was mixed and they decided that they would take the rest of the week off school. Nerys and Cassie would continue to come into school and I would only come in for my lessons each day. I would also need to check with Ian to see what he wanted to do, I suspected he would want to go with his twin sister, but we would see. ------- Well the court case went as we expected, all two weeks of it; as it was during exam time for school the headmistress had given me envelopes with the exam papers and the children had all done them in the witness room. It had helped them keep their minds off the proceedings to come. Yes the children all had to give evidence; fortunately it was over the video link. I wasn't allowed to sit with them for that, they found that so hard being on their own; the worst was the thought of the cross examination by defence counsel. The defence counsel tried to imply that the children had led the men on. Jenny stood there, her image on the screen, and looked at the defendants in the dock, drew herself up to her full five foot not much and pointed at the pictures of the men on her screen. "You raped me of my virginity, I was 12 years old and you raped me. You didn't care how much you hurt me. You" she pointed at her mother, "told me I had to have sex with him and that if I didn't you would beat me. You beat me anyway for their entertainment; and this man in his fancy dress wants to say that I led you on. You Mr. are as bad as they are; you are trying to make me feel as bad about myself as they did." With that she broke down in tears. I could see the looks on the faces of the jury; the defence counsel had just lost the case. The judge turned to the defence counsel. "I did try to stop Jenny, but then I heard that she was answering all the questions you and your colleagues were going to try and ask her and so I let her carry on. Do you have any more questions you would like to ask Jenny?" The defence counsel had looked at the jury during Jenny's tirade and knew that he had lost their goodwill, what little he had had and replied in a shaken voice. "No your honour." "Jenny you may step down, thank you for the way you conducted yourself." Ruth was next followed by Janice and Ian. They gave their evidence in response to prosecuting counsel and were not cross examined by the defence counsel, even Nerys and Cassie; Nerys especially didn't have any supporting evidence. Cassie had the DNA match of the aborted foetus. I think he realised there was nothing he could do to help his clients; Jenny had shown him that. The prosecuting counsel had drawn from Jenny and Ruth the details of how they collected samples of the men's semen and their documents. The evidence was devastating, especially the detailing of the DNA of the aborted babies. Finally the jury were sent out to deliberate. I was finally able to join the children in a back room of the court. "Jenny, what you did to the defence barrister lost them the case. I could see the faces of the jurors and they changed from polite interest towards the defendants to raw hatred, I think it was at that point they realised the sheer horror of what had been done to you all. I don't think we will have to wait very long for the verdict." With that I joined my children on the sofa they were sitting on and I ended up at the bottom of the pile of children trying to cuddle me. I had scarcely had time to drink the cup of coffee that had been brought in for me when the court usher came in. Will you go back into court and you six join me in the video room, you deserve to hear the verdicts." With that we split up; I into the main body of the court and Nerys, Cassie, Jenny, Ruth, Janice and Ian followed the usher to the video room. We had just sat down as the jurors returned. The foreman remained on her feet as the others sat down. "Have you reached a verdict to which you all agree?" "Yes your honour, we have." She then read down the list of offences and defendants, the firm report to each was, Guilty as charged. The list went on and on. Every single charge had resulted in a guilty verdict. Finally it was time for the judge. "We have all heard the sickening evidence in this trial of a mother who was prepared to beat and sell her children for the pleasure of paedophiles. We have heard of those same paedophiles who didn't care what they were doing to these children, that they were prepared to father babies on these children; that as a group you beat these children, either actively or as spectators. During your time on remand psychiatric and probation reports have been carried out on you all and I have prepared sentences for you. They are all the same, the only difference is in the tariff, and that sentence is life imprisonment." He continued on and I just watched the faces of the defendants as their tariffs were announced, from thirty years for mum down to a minimum of fifteen years for three of the men. They were then told when they finally left prison they would all have to sign the sex offenders register for life. They were led down from the dock, I could see they were broken by what had now happened to them and I cheered inwardly as I went to meet up with my children and joined up with our solicitor. We knew there was a lot of media interest in the trial so we had prepared a statement for him to read, we would not be present as we didn't trust the press not to make any slip ups. Finally we were able to get away; it had been a long two weeks for us all. Whilst we had been listening to the solicitor reading the statement I had been online booking a break at Alton towers theme park hotel. We went back to the hotel we had been staying in to pack and we were soon on our way. Nerys was next to me and I could see the four children were talking to Cassie. We had just passed the M25 ring to the North of London when Jenny spoke. "Martin." "Yes love." "the four of us have decided that we want to go to the Leys school, we all break up in the middle of next week so can we leave it until September?" I rang school and the head laughed at me. "Of course Martin; it'll be no problem for you and them to have the next three days off; I have already seen that they all did well in their exams. Ian's head master has told me that he has passed as well. I can ring the Leys for you to let them know that they will have your four children next term. Rowena is back and is a lot better, oh what did her uncle get?" "They all got life, his tariff is 25 years, and their mum got 30." "That's good, how did the children get on in court?" "You would have laughed to see Jenny tear the defence barrister a new, pardon the expression, arse. He tried to imply that she had led his defendant on. With that one question he lost the case. She pointed at the defendant on her screen and said, no shouted, you raped me of my virginity at 11 years old, then at her mum for forcing her and beating her and then told the barrister he was as bad as the defendants for trying to make her feel bad about herself. I tell you that barrister looked a broken man after that reaming out and one look at the jury told him he had just lost the case. Whilst the jury was out I only just had time enough to have a cup of coffee before the jury were back to give the guilty verdicts." "Can you tell Jenny well done, and congratulate them all. Oh and you might as well take them away next week as there is no set lesson plan, you had no classes to take officially so for you all term ends here." "Thank you, as you could probably hear, Jenny said thanks and so did the others. When do you want me to come in about starting next term?" "I'll write to confirm but we have the induction days the week before term starts." "That's fine; I'll definitely see you then, but maybe sooner." With that I rung off and we continued driving the motorways and back roads to Alton Towers for the weekend. Now the court case was out of the way we could look to see what we wanted to do for the rest of our holidays. Everything had been on hold as we had been waiting for the court case to be finished with and with that the start of the holidays and the rest of their lives. ------- The End ------- Posted: 2009-05-21 Last Modified: 2011-08-01 / 10:57:35 pm ------- http://storiesonline.net/ -------
