"John's mother Martha was a homely girl. Not quite nerdy looking as one might say, but she was a good girl that kept to herself, got good grades in school and read a lot. She wore glasses that didn't help the way she looked at all. Her hair was unkept usually and being from a poor family she did not wear the nicest of clothes. It wasn't that she was ugly at all, but she was never to be confused with the words pretty, or beautiful either."
I paused as I sat up further in bed against the headboard and shoved some pillows behind my back for support. No one was asking anything, so I went on.
"Where Martha exceeded her peers was with her body. If there was ever an example of the slang word 'Butterface', Martha's picture could be used. Her body was not just perfect, it was flawless. She was height, weight proportioned with the most perfect set of breasts and the most beautiful cunt you ever did want to see, or taste for that manner. She's probably where Ashley gets her genes from."
Susan smacked my leg. "That's mean."
"I'm not trying to be mean at all. She knew it, we all knew it. We didn't speak it out loud of course but the thoughts were there, and she grew up accepting it all. She didn't date through high school, nor attend any school functions or dances. She was just a loner and kept to her books and self."
I looked at Susan and she was nodding that she understood.
"After she graduated, she moved from home and into her older sister's place, your Aunt Reeny. Or just Aunt Maureen for the rest of you if she is still particular over who calls her Reeny."
I saw Adam and Ashley smiling as they knew they were the only ones that could get away with that. It made them feel special and although I hoped Maureen would keep with the tradition, I also hoped she would accept the others as her nieces and nephews as well and allow it with them too.
"Now I wasn't there so I have no idea of all the events or timelines that took place back then, but the story over the years from both your dad and Aunt Reeny was this.
At some point Martha caught Maureen and one of their uncles together. I believe his name was Floyd. Martha had no idea how to process this information, as incest was something she had only read about in books, and she thought no one in real life would ever do such a thing. Maureen and Floyd knew they had to turn Martha to their side or possibly face being exposed, and they could not allow that to happen. It took a while but eventually they talked Martha into some play and considering as how Martha had never experienced anything like that before she took to it like a duck to water."
Adam never to be the subtle one. "So, uncle Floyd busted Grandma Martha's cherry?"
I paused the story for a moment and looked around the bed where everyone had gathered onto. Everyone remained naked except Adam and Ashley still in her panties. Milla was still between Kim's legs, but her head was resting on Kim's thigh. Same with Brittney and Susan. Adam had moved to sit by me while Tommy sat on the opposite side still slowly absentmindedly stroking his cock. Ashley was between my legs on her stomach but looking up at me with rapt attention. It was her that shook me back to the subject.
"Are you going to tell us that Uncle Floyd is Dad's father?"
"Uh? Umm, no. No, your great uncle Floyd is not your dad's father. Albeit sometimes I wish he had been. Stay with me here. I want to get through this because there is lots to do today before I get back to the hospital."
Everyone settled in deeper with all eyes upon me and I continued.
"Umm, yes Floyd took Martha's cherry as you so eloquently put it, Adam." I looked at Adam with a smile on my face to let him know I was just teasing him. "BUT he did not get her pregnant. From what I remember is that Maureen, Floyd and Martha found and enjoyed their incestuous relationship that day and never ventured outside of it."
"So how did Grandma Martha get pregnant with dad?" Ashley interrupted asking.
"Hold on, I'm getting there and it's not a good part of the story, but it will give insight into why your father is the way he is. Just hold on."
"I believe that it was two years after the relationship had started that everything went bad. If I remember correctly Grandma Martha was twenty years old or maybe twenty-one. I don't recall, but neither makes a difference in the story."
I paused again, looking at the clock on the wall and checking my phone to see if John had texted or called. I still had plenty of time and no word from John. I think I was just stalling because I really did not want to tell the next part of the story. I looked at everyone's faces, and I could see the anticipation in them. I knew they were waiting so I took a deep breath and went on.
"Like I just said, a couple of years after the start there was some trouble between the three. Maureen was fucking Floyd first, so she always maintained that she was number one girl and Martha was second. Also because of the difference in ages Maureen thought she should be number one. Martha didn't care one way or the other but mainly because Floyd had taken to fucking her more often than Maureen. As I mentioned, Martha may have not been much to look at in the face, but her body was killer and Floyd just couldn't resist her after he had a taste and Martha came around to trying new things and getting her slut on."
My throat was dry, and I needed some water. "Could someone be kind enough to grab me some water please."
Tommy was on the side of the bed closet to the restroom, and he jumped up and headed that way. I waited for his return with the water. After swallowing down the entire glass I continued.
"Regardless of who was right or wrong a bunch of fights broke out and Martha stormed out of the house alone one night. Where all she went or did nobody knows for sure as she couldn't remember herself after the event."
Ashley squirmed around on the bed and moved closer to my leg to hold it. "I don't think I'm gonna like this part." she said in a low voice.
"I know I don't like repeating it but it's important to understand the history of our family and how we all came to be who we are and why we are the way we are."
Ashey nodded that she understood, and I went on.
"Martha never made it home that night. She was found the next day along a road in a ditch barely clinging to life. She had been raped repeatedly and beaten so severely that she had to be resuscitated numerous times before making it to the hospital."
Everyone in the bed was squirming now and I really didn't want to go on. Ashley was crying outright while others had tears streaming down their faces. I could feel Tommy's body tense up next to me but what scared me the most was that Adam who was sitting so close to me that I had to loop my arm through his to have room to sit comfortably was not tense or even breathing hard. We just heard him say.
"Please tell me that someone hunted down and killed whoever did it."
I noticed after I looked at him that he was staring into Kim's eyes, and she was locked in his gaze. I somehow was getting the vibe that Kim was coming around to Adam's way of thinking. I tried to ease the tension in the room.
"I'll get to that, but first I have to tell the next part."
I took Adam's hand in mine and squeezed it tightly. I did not like this side of him, but I also admired his commitment and loyalty to the family, even this many years later.
