If you haven't read East Meets West, Part 1, then I suggest you read it now, otherwise this story will make no sense to you. I would also like to add that I don't write sex stories . . . I write stories that have sex in them. Hopefully, the sex enhances the story, but is not the primary reason the story was written. Sex between consenting adults who love each other is truly one of the most glorious things on earth.
I also want to point out a few things here, so I apologize in advance for writing such a lengthy introduction.
I am actually conflicted about which category I should place this story under. I finally decided to also include it under "Romance," but could just have easily been listed it as "Incest," or "Anal." I know there are people who are offended by those final two listings, so this is fair warning. If you don't want to read about incest or anal sex, then stop now.
One thing that is consistent in my writing is that I write about strong women. Women who are not only the equal to the male lead character, but usually superior. I know many strong women who know what they want and aren't afraid to go out and get it.
I don't write about timid women who meekly accept what life deals out, but rather "damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead." This story is definitely that category. Incest, but very unconventional to what most people probably expect.
I actually wrote Part 1 of East Meets West nearly two years ago. And kept feeling something was missing. I don't know how the creative process works for others, but for me I get a general idea for a story and start writing. In the original story Jiao and Meili were both in that car crash. Jiao died, while Meili was critically injured. Jack blames himself for Jiao's death, and Meili's near fatal injuries.
In the original, Jack meets someone but having lost what he thought was the love of his life, and still blaming himself, he can't and won't allow his feelings to show. Only after Meili wakes up and is nearly recovered does she convince him that this other person is right for him. "The Miracle of the Silver Dollar" was included from the very beginning.
But a funny thing happened on the way to the ending. I fell in love with Jiao. At some point (actually by the time I had written about their first night together) I had written enough about Jiao to where I could no longer simply "kill off" a character.
So Jiao was alive and well, but I still felt something was missing. It finally dawned on me that Jiao wasn't the only woman who was in love with Jack.
Quite frankly, I never thought I would write a story about any form of incest, but then this is not my story – it is Jiao's and Meili's and Jack's story. I am just reporting the story as they told it to me.
East Meets West, Part 2, Chapter 1
"Daddy, I'm pregnant," my daughter Meili told me.
I knew my daughter was not dating anyone, and in fact had not dated in nearly two years. Not since she had launched her bio-genetics lab. In fact, I frequently complained because she never took time to enjoy herself, instead working 15 to 18 hours a day, six or seven days a week.
Daddy, I'm pregnant,
the words repeated themselves in my mind.
Part of my mind just seemed to stop, while another part suddenly started operating lightning fast.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
The words kept echoing through my mind.
Time slowed to a crawl.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
I literally felt like someone had punched me in the stomach. I could feel the blood drain out of my face, and for a moment actually thought I would either be sick or pass out.
The one part of my mind that still was working immediately flashed back to the first time I had ever met this young girl I had grown to love so much.
She was only 12 years old at the time and was hiding behind her mother's waist. All I could see was one jade-green eye, and shoulder-length, jet black hair.
She was so shy, so bashful, and it wasn't until I asked if she would like to see a magic trick that she acknowledged me in any way.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
She said something in Chinese to her mother, who laughed then told me her daughter said, "I'm a scientist, I don't believe in magic."
I performed a stupid little magic trick involving a disappearing coin, then asked if she had taken the coin.
The first words she said to me, in perfect English, albeit with a British accent, were: "No, what did you do with it?"
I pretended to examine both sides of her face, then "pulled" the coin out of her ear.
She giggled, then threw her arms around my neck and gave me a strong hug and kissed me on the cheek. I was immediately lost. I knew I was helplessly in love with this little girl, just as I was helplessly in love with her mother. I adopted her legally, but had already adopted her into my heart.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
Then my mind flashed back to seeing her in a hospital bed after nearly eight hours of surgery. The extent of her injuries after being hit head-on by a drunk driver were overwhelming. She had died twice in the ambulance, but they were able to get her heart started again. Her blood pressure was almost negligible due to the massive blood loss.
She had compound fractures in both legs, meaning the bones were sticking out, had a collapsed lung, several broken ribs, a ruptured spleen, a broken arm, a fractured skull, a concussion, and swelling of the brain. One knee had also been shattered in the wreck and if she lived they weren't certain if she would ever be able to walk again without a pronounced limp and without a cane or even crutches.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
I later found out the doctors, even after the surgery, had given her less than a 10 percent chance of living. Only later, years later, did one of the doctors actually add they thought the best thing that could happen would have been if she had died, because they were almost certain she would have brain damage if she did live. Luckily that prediction did not come true.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
Three times in the next few days she nearly died again. Her heart started failing, her blood pressure was dropping and even the doctors and nurses were crying knowing she was dying and there was nothing – medically – they could do to help her.
Twice I was able to bring her back from the brink with my little magic trick. The hospital staff started calling it "The Miracle of the Silver Dollar." Another time her mother, using the ESP (Extra-Sensory Perception) they shared was able to pull her back to the land of the living.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
I remembered once when 13-year-old Meili fell while trying to ride a bicycle and skinned her knee. She started crying and began running over to where her mother and I were sitting on the ground enjoying a picnic lunch.
Jiao drew herself up to her knees to get ready to offer Meili a comforting hug. Only Meili ran past her mother and flung herself into my arms. That was when I honestly felt like a Dad for the very first time, knowing that she now truly accepted me as her father. I think I started crying harder than Meili was.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
The words kept reverberating through my head.
Another flashback and I remembered the first few weeks in the hospital after she regained consciousness. She had broken her left arm, and since she was left handed, her mother and I had to take turns feeding her until she taught herself to eat using her right hand, and later taught herself to write also using her right hand. Today, she can eat or write equally well using either hand. In fact she can eat with one hand, while writing or typing with the other. Even more amazingly, she can write in English with one hand, and at the same time write in Russian, German, French or Chinese with the other.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
After well over a month in the hospital, we finally returned home. At first Meili was nearly an invalid. She couldn't walk, slept 16 to 18 hours a day, and depended on her mother and me for EVERYTHING. Jiao had taken several weeks' vacation, but eventually had to return to work. I had taken a leave of absence from the college where I taught military history.
I had to help her use the bathroom, and even clean her up after "accidents" while she was sleeping. I also had to constantly change her position in bed to prevent bedsores, and would spend hours each day massaging the muscles of her back and legs to prevent atrophy.
In the first three months Meili had three different surgeries on her knee, putting it back together.
Daddy, Daddy, Daddy . . . I'm, I'm, I'm . . . pregnant, pregnant, PREGNANT!
After she began to heal, a physical therapist came in every day for over a month to work with her, but eventually Meili asked if I could take over. At first I told her I could not do that. After watching several of the sessions with the therapist it looked more like brutality than needed exercise. During every one of those sessions Meili would be reduced to tears because of the extreme pain. I finally had to stop watching because I was afraid I would attack the therapist because of how much she was hurting my daughter.
