Royce Engel walked from the McFee's lean-to toward the Cavern Mine cabin, intentionally trailing behind his client's 18-year old daughter, Clementine. She held the hem of her full gingham skirt up to mid-thigh, creating a hammock for the eggs she had collected for breakfast. Royce admired her tidy round buns, dancing beneath the dainty blue-and-white checked cotton tightly clinging to her hams, as she led the way with a natural, hip-swaying gait. He could still feel the firmness of their flesh in his fingers when he pulled her pussy to his face, immobilizing her squirming hips as he had feasted on her cunt-honey. He licked his lips, savoring its aftertaste. His dick thickened in his jeans with the additional memory of her practiced cocksucking and willing uninhibited intimacy when she woke him up just twenty minutes earlier.
Clementine looked back over her shoulder, tossing her straight pale blonde hair, and laughed. "C'mon, Royce! I'm the one with the eggs in her lap... what are YOU hangin' back for?"
Royce grinned and answered, "I can't help being stunned by the view." He picked up his pace, passing the teen, and held the cabin door open as she stepped onto the covered porch.
"Hey, Momma! Got your eggs!" Clementine called, crossing the threshold and heading toward the kitchen area of the three-walled log cabin fronting the McFee's Great Cave. She carefully lowered the front edge of her skirt onto the oak slab table in the dining room. "I got a goose and three duck eggs... No berries, though, the birds ate the ones close to the trail and I thought I better not get into the brush with my good dress."
Daphne McFee, Clementine's mother and older sister, nodded. "That's fine, honey, you did just right." She smiled and picked up the eggs in a basket and took them to the cooking area. The room was redolent of fried bacon, fresh biscuits and coffee. Royce grinned, rubbed his stomach and complimented the cook. Daphne smiled and winked at him. "Pour yourself a mug of coffee, Royce. The potatoes are pretty much done and these eggs'll scramble up in a hurry."
While Royce got his coffee, Daphne's and Clementine's father, Mitch McFee, entered from a back passage out of the deeper cave. "Good Mornin' Royce," he greeted, stepping up behind Daphne. He swatted her affectionately on her rear end and kissed the nape of her neck. "Mmmmmm, love your biscuits, Sugar!" He chuckled.
Daphne turned and kissed him warmly. Her bosom drug across his chest as her dress swirled. "Hush! Go sit. Breakfast is served." She laughed, appreciating his love.
Clementine grinned at Royce and then, seemingly for no reason, stuck out her tongue at him and hurried to sit opposite him. He frowned in response then almost spilled his coffee when he felt the girl's foot rubbing his right calf through his jeans at the top of his boot. When everyone was at the table she announced, daring anyone to contradict her, "Royce said I should call him 'Royce,' so don't ANYONE get all huffy when I say, 'Royce' instead of 'Mr. Engel.'" She glared left and right at Daphne and Mitch, then looked to Engel for corroboration. "You did say so, RIGHT, Royce?"
The elder McFees could not contain their laughter as the attorney spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders and gave a downturned smile, agreeing silently with the adamant youth. "Alright, Darlin'," Mitch said, "Nobody's gonna buck you on THAT!... so, Royce," He looked to their guest and said, smiling over the rim of his coffee mug, "How about you 'paintin' in those corners' you talked about last night with me and Daphne and sharin' the plan with Clementine?"
Clementine shifted her eyes back and forth, wondering what was transpiring. Royce cleared his throat and repeated the information about the Ames Academy For Young Ladies in Boston and ended with a summary of the expected upcoming itinerary. "We'll travel tomorrow, leaving early, and get to the hotel in Denver, I imagine about 7 p.m. or so. I know we'll be both hungry and tired, but I already have the suite reserved and a room service dinner planned which, I have been assured, can be delivered within a half-hour of check-in." Royce was glad to see Daphne and Mitch nod their approval of the arrangement. It had been a calculated risk. "We'll have some fun over Independence Day... I think there's a rodeo... and then spend a couple of days shopping," he paused and sipped his coffee, "You know, for duds and whatnot before heading by train to Chicago. I have an apartment arranged where Clementine can stay, safe and secluded, while I help her with basic... oh, citification, shall I say? Then it's on to Boston, and delivery to Miss Ames as agreed, on August 21st or 22nd." Royce quit talking and put his mug down. He forked the last bit of fluffy scrambled eggs into his mouth and waited for the McFees' reaction.
"WHAT are you even TALKIN' about?!" Clementine exclaimed. She had heard every word yet was dumfounded.
Daphne extended her right arm and took her sister's left hand, squeezing it while she smiled. Mitch got up and stood behind her chair, putting his strong hands on her shoulder tops and gently working his stubby fingers into Clementine's bare trapezius muscles from her neck out to her checkered dress straps and back. "Darlin'," he said, softly with an underlying tone of no-nonsense, "The details are new and may seem sudden, but you have known since you were ten that your Momma and I had a beautiful future prepared for you." He kissed the top of Clementine's head. "I understand your shock. Shoot! Even I forgot about it until Royce rode up and reminded me that the time had drawn nigh."
Clementine began to sob quietly. "I-I-I thought you'd be with me... we'd all leave the mine..." She pushed her chair back, forcing Mitch to step aside. Standing up she looked at Daphne, then at Mitch, shook her head and bawled, "I didn't know you were GETTIN' RID of me!" Clementine stiff-armed Mitch and fled to her niche, slamming the oak door and throwing the bolt. She threw herself face down in the darkness on her bed and wept.
At the dining table the McFees stared at each other, stunned and distraught. Royce promptly stood up and walked around the table to them. "Let me go talk to her," he suggested quietly. "She's upset, yes, but maybe you are too close to the source to be helpful just now." He simultaneously put his right arm around Daphne's shoulders, hugging her to his side, and closed his left hand around Mitch's right wrist, which was straying to his belt buckle.
Daphne saw it, too. "No, Mitch," she pleaded, "Strappin' her won't help... you know it. Give Royce a chance. Words are his business, right?" She turned her face and smiled at Engel. "Go to her. I think she needs you to help her understand."
Royce nodded and withdrew his hands. He was unable to resist a final compression of Daphne's unharnessed left boob against his ribs as he released her and walked down the passage, picking up and lighting a lantern on the way.
