Angela couldn't believe her good luck. One of the wealthiest men in the city had fallen in love with her. She had schemed and connived her way into his confidence. She had used every base and crooked ploy and trick she could think of to get him to first notice her, and second to begin to consider her someone he might want to marry. Yes, everything had worked out. Things were going her way, and soon, if she continued to play her cards right, she would be in control of everything this man owned. She would be the wealthiest gal, or guy, in the state. Then she could dump him and his forlorn sister out on the street.
Angela thought back on the events that had led to her almost complete victory over the McNaughton siblings. It had started when the two McNaughtons, Brandon and his mousy little sister Vonda, had managed to undermine and nearly bankrupt her father. It had destroyed the man, and he died of grief, a complete loser.
Angela, using her family's remaining wealth established a new identity and new financial empire. Though it was certainly much smaller than anything her father had created; it was substantial enough to attract the attention of the ever-avaricious Brandon and Vonda. Once she got their, or rather his, attention she pulled out all stops to first get him in bed, and then get a real love commitment.
Angela knew she had the physical traits and the emotional moxie to pull the thing off. She was a gorgeous twenty-three year old blond-hair blue eyed goddess. With her 34B natural breasts, which she had developed and sculpted naturally through a rigorous exercise regime, plus classic good looks, and a magnificent pair of long and shapely legs, Brandon fell all over himself trying to get her attention.
Angela didn't play it easy. She made him work for everything he got. If he thought she was cheap, her plan would never have worked. No, she played about as hard to get as she could and still make the chase and capture within reach. Ultimately he caved in. Though he got her in bed, he was still ready to offer that long-term commitment she had so earnestly worked for. The only slight drawback was in the nature of his long-term promise.
Brandon, it seemed, had made a personal, and legal, arrangement with all the members of his family. If he were to ever find anyone he wanted to really settle down with, the long term companion had to sign off on some legal agreements that made the commitment absolutely permanent. This was not a prenuptial. Brandon explained, he and Vonda's mother had been born with some very serious emotional psychological disorders that never materialized until well after their father had married. The emotional trauma associated with her illnesses and her eventual death had led his father to demand a legal commitment of a most unusual nature. For Angela and Brandon to marry, Angela had to undergo a rigorous psychoanalytical assessment. This assessment, according to Brandon, was really only a formality, though, in it's essence Angela had to agree to a short stay in a medical facility where her emotional status had to be proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. For Angela, this was as easy as a walk in the park. She agreed to the requirement, and spent six weeks in what was certainly the most prestigious sanitarium in the nation.
Angela had stayed in the facility, had taken all the tests, and had participated in all the appropriate clinical meetings and workshops. At the end of the six weeks Brandon was right there with the longest stretch limousine Angela ever saw. Brandon whisked her away to the nearest justice of the peace where a civil ceremony was performed, and she had become Mrs. Brandon McNaughton.
Now armed with a marriage license, and the man she wanted Angela was ready to begin to claim all that was her rightful due.
Vonda had been quietly amused by Angela's nearly transparent effort to get Brandon in bed and then down the altar. What Angela didn't know was Vonda had been adopted into the family when Brandon's father had been involved with another woman while in Europe. The other woman had died giving birth to Vonda, and, being the gentleman that he was; Brandon's father had assumed the moral and legal duties of a parent. Any ceremony that Brandon and Angela had entered into was, as far as Vonda were concerned an awkward interference. Vonda knew a happily married Brandon might lead to her, that is Vonda's, eventual removal from the household. So Vonda had begun to initiate her own deliberate subterfuge designed to get Angela under her firm control. Angela had a sizable fortune, and Vonda intended to obtain it even before Angela had started to weave her own pathetic little web. If she could put Angela aside, then she would be better able to continue to manipulate her erstwhile brother.
A happily married Angela might scheme to undercut Brandon. Meanwhile, Vonda would proceed to completely unravel everything about Angela, for it seemed that Angela never fully understood that the six week visit to the sanitarium was designed by Vonda, not to guarantee her stability, but to create a dossier that would prove beyond any doubt her complete inability to function. Angela had been tricked and trapped, and she didn't have a clue. Now it was time for the McNaughton's daughter to begin to have a little fun with their new acquisition.
So two questions emerged. Would Angela be able to overwhelm her unsuspecting husband and abscond with all the wealth? Or would Vonda dismantle Angela's schemes and place her in a situation beyond all redemption? Stated in more deliberate terms. There were two scheming bitches, but only one could win.
After an extended honeymoon in Fiji, Brandon and Angela returned to the palatial estate they would share with Vonda and the array of friends and neighbors who would be constantly in and out. The property was enormous; encompassing hundreds of acres of exquisitely manicured lawn, a vast expanse grossly expensive gardens, including a garden maize, and a huge area of some of the most pristine old growth forest in the nation. Though there was a small town only thirty miles away, Brandon had to fly back and forth to work, using on alternating dates a small Cessna or a modified Apache assault helicopter that he had managed to acquire from a friend in the defense industry.
Angela for her part, once they reached home, would have access to several automobiles including a steel gray Jaguar, a stunning black Porsche, and a number of other types of vehicles from limos to SUVs. Angela would be able to drive to town on her own, or if necessary, she could rely on one of three chauffeurs for transportation. Then again, there was always Vonda, if Angela wanted company.
As their plane touched down on the McNaughton's private landing strip Brandon reminded Angela that she should always try to respect Vonda's wishes when they were home. Brandon explained, owing to their mother's tragic malady Vonda had vowed to never marry, but she promised to always stay at or close to home, to be available as helpmate and companion to Brandon and anyone he chose to marry. To all intents and purposes Vonda had promised to give up her life to care for and help her brother. Vonda was already a cool thirty-three, and though a stunningly attractive woman, she had devoted her life to making Brandon the best sister any man could have. For his part, Brandon had asserted his deep devotion to Angela, and he had proven it by marrying her, but he explained he would always have a special love for his sister. He told Angela he trusted his sister in all things. He wanted Angela to not only respect his affection for Vonda, but also to develop the same rapport with her as well.
Angela swore she would come to love Vonda with the same passion Brandon had. Angela promised she would devote herself to gaining Vonda's love and trust, and she would respect all Vonda's wishes.
The first several weeks at the estate were idyllic. Everybody was happy. All was quiet, and everything seemed to be moving exactly as everyone intended.
