The moment the door opened was the moment that changed me forever. Cass was on the bed looking up at me with a shocked expression, while I was frozen.... As I stood there dazed Cass started screaming at me 'GET THE FUCK OUT!'. I had never heard her use such language, I shook my head to clear it of the haze. When my vision cleared I followed the length of her arm down to her glistening pussy. My jaw nearly hit the floor and I'm sure a little bit of drool came out of my mouth. 'Wow' I breathed. She. It was Peg, the pilot's wife and Admiral's daughter, who exiled me. She was the entrepreneur of the group, calling Brandon to schedule "meetings" whenever her husband was out of town.Steve and I were at a big cocktail party and Peg and her husband were also there. Peg and I affected not to know each other and I immediately liked her husband, Bob. He was an aw-shucks country boy with a shock of unruly blond hair, an engaging smile, and the quiet arrogance characteristic of men who do dangerous. "I so want to..." She looked at Cadence and tears stung her eyes. I couldn't help myself. I reached across Cadence between us and kissed my caretaker. We managed, somehow, not to get too carried away. I lay down beside Cadence and began to kiss her softly. Her eyes fluttered open."Are we in our bed? Was it all a bad dream, Linc?" she whispered."I'm afraid not, sweetheart. We are at Crossroads. I am here with you and I love you more than life. I know it's hard to take in, but it's all real. And. We pulled away from the house and headed out to the GWR ... Great Western Road.“You usually don’t partake of hops and barley before a bit of a dig ... what’s up?”“Your wife knows the finest women in the country, and she’s been introducing them singly and batches. She finally hit the right jackpot and the woman won’t have a damn thing to do with me. I find solace in the bottle,” that was said in a Shakespearian tone.Not that I understood a word of it ... Jim was plastered. What I did understand.
