In just three generations, Alejandra's family had been through SO much. Her grandpa Antonio had left Spain as a teenager, seeking adventure and fortune among the missionaries who were colonizing the New World of Alta California. As an early Californio, grandpa Antonio had been given a modest land-grant on which he lived in a small two-room Adobe house.
In Alta California, grandpa Antonio met and married a lovely native girl with a dark bronze complexion. He had trouble pronouncing her name at first, it being in a language unfamiliar to his Spanish ears. But he learned that her name meant "Cascading Waters", an apt description for her long, straight black hair that flowed down her back and caressed her shapely derriere. But he was to soon discover a second meaning for her name, for as he licked at her clit, sucked it up into his mouth, and kissed all around her pussy, she flowed a very sweet kind of cascading water of her own, onto his grateful tongue.
Cascading Waters loved coupling up with her Spaniard, and over the years she bore grandpa Antonio five fine, strapping sons, all of whom they raised in the strictest Spanish Catholic traditions. Although Cascading Waters had herself baptized out of love for her Antonio, there were those Spanish settlers who would never think of her as anything but a savage heathen.
Life was pretty good for grandpa Antonio for many years. In public, Cascading Waters was circumspect, the perfect Catholic wife. In private, she was the same loving and uninhibited woman she had been raised to be in a freer "Indian" culture that was devoid of a millennium of Catholic sexual repression. She enjoyed sex in ALL of its endless variations, and her culture had made sure she was WELL schooled in this subject. She trained grandpa Antonio well, so he was more skilled, attentive, and devoted to her than most early Catholic settlers in California.
Yes, things were great for grandpa Antonio and Cascading Waters for a very long time. But then some of the citizens of Alta California who were fed-up with Spanish tyranny, led a revolt and formed a new independent nation called Mexico. The successful revolutionaries refused to honor many of the old Spanish land grants, and grandpa Antonio lost even the modest little rancho he called home.
Grandpa's eldest son, Jose (Alejandra's father), was the first to leave home and seek his fortune, the birth-right that he felt the Mexican Revolution had robbed from him. Life was a struggle for him at first. But then some fool gringo named Sutter had found a lump of gold in the Sacramento river, and thousands more fool gringos traveled thousands of miles by wagon to find gold for themselves. They all needed pans to sift the gold from the rocks and water, and later pick-axes to hack the gold out of cliff faces, and lanterns so they could see as they hacked gold off of cave walls. They needed rugged clothing for their mining exploits, tents to sleep in, pots to cook in, and food to cook in those pots. Papa Jose set up a shop in San Francisco, and did very well selling such supplies and more to the gringos. He found that San Francisco was also a busy seaport, and the sailors and fishermen needed all sorts of supplies, too. Business was booming for Papa Jose, and soon he opened a new, larger general store, with a hotel above it for the sailors and fishermen while they were in port.
It was while running his general store, that an Italian family checked-into Papa Jose's hotel. They had a beautiful young daughter, with similar chiseled features to his own Spanish face, only much softer and sweeter-looking. Her complexion was dark olive, so she fit in well with the blend of Spanish and Indian features in his own dark complexion. Papa Jose wound-up marrying her, and Alejandra was their first child.
As a young girl, Alejandra grew up around Papa Jose's general store and hotel. In her late teens, she grew to be quite a beauty, inheriting her grandma's dark native complexion and long, straight dark hair. She didn't know it yet, but she was also to inherit grandma Cascading Waters's insatiable appetite for sex, helped along by grandma thoroughly training Alejandra from a young girl, in the ancient native traditions of giving and receiving sexual pleasures. Much to grandma's joy, under her tutelage, Alejandra came to develop her greatest skill in the ancient and honorable native art of fellatio. Also like her grandma, the growing Alejandra turned out to be quite busty, and she generally dressed to show of this ample feature. As a young woman, Alejandra met her share of gruff men, from sailors to cowboys. Some were handsome, but most looked beat-up by life, smelled bad, and had deplorable manners. She had even given herself over to one cowboy who had literally charmed the panties off of her, but he was just too gruff a personality for her to want to stick with him. She deserved MUCH better than this, and she was determined to GET, as good as her grandma had taught her to GIVE.
Alejandra was 20 years old when a tavern opened across the street from Papa Jose's store and hotel. The proprietor was a young man of about 25, born into southern slavery. She had never SEEN a man with such a dark complexion before, MUCH darker than the Spaniards or even native women like grandma Cascading Waters. Alejandra was intrigued. His was a soft, kindly face, very handsome, even beautiful. Andrew had been luckier than most slaves: as a house servant, he did not have to do back-breaking manual labor. He had seen many a slave whipped to within an inch of his life, but Andrew was bright, and he knew how to avoid displeasing his masters and facing the lash. The mistress of the plantation had taught him to read a few basic words, and had given him pocket change from time to time, to spend on himself when he went into town to buy supplies for the family's kitchen.
Then one day, the master had come home rip-roaring drunk, and mad as hell. For no apparent reason, the master took out his whip, and struck at young Andrew's back. Andrew cowered behind the kitchen stove as the house mistress and several others struggled to wrestle the whip out of the master's grip. That single, stinging lash was enough, and Andrew daily grew more determined to run away to freedom. One day about a month later, he got his chance. He knew where the house mistress hid some money, she had taken out the money-jar in front of him many times, to give him pocket money for in-town. She had been kind to him, and he hated to repay her kindness by stealing from her, but this was his only hope of escape.
So he took the money and ran. And ran and ran. He didn't stop running and hiding until he had no more land to run across: he had hit the Pacific Ocean! So he used the master's money to buy himself a modest, run- down old shack in bustling San Francisco, and fixed it up as a tavern for the sailors, fishermen, and cowboys.
As she grew to know the former slave Andrew, Alejandra grew more enamored of his handsomeness, gentleness, and kindness. He wouldn't even let her sleep with him without the benefit of marriage. And so, a few months after they met, much to the shock of many Californians, the part-Spanish, part-native, part- Italian Alejandra married the nearly-pure African, Andrew. Many were counting on their fingers, as precisely nine months later, Alejandra gave birth to a son. She must have conceived on their wedding night, the timing was so close.
He had made love to her so sweetly and gently on their wedding night, none of the gruffness of her first cowboy lover. All those years of ingrained training on how to please his masters had paid an unexpected benefit: Andrew now focused on pleasing his bride FIRST, over his own pleasures. He had a truly masterful tongue, and was a true connoisseur of the fine and ancient art of cunnilingus. He knew how to ease into her so slowly, making her want him more and more, begging him to speed up, but he held back until her desires went completely over the top, at which point she grabbed him in her tiny fist and forced him in deeper and harder.
But after the honeymoon, everything changed. Andrew spent more and more time in his saloon business, and 15 months passed before he again made love to her. Then Alejandra's Papa Jose grew gravely ill, and she found herself spending ever more time helping out around the store and hotel, and less and less time with her equally-busy husband. Then her father died, and Alejandra faced an endless barrage of lawyers and realtors as she tried to settle her papa's affairs. With all of that going on, nearly two years elapsed before Andrew again made love with her, and she would so often go nearly out of her mind from the desperation of her lonely horniness. She even toyed with the idea of joining Miss Hennessey's "Fancy Parlor" girls, who ran their business above Andrew's saloon, just so she could be with a man again, but she couldn't stand the thought of being with another cowboy. The fishermen smelled too rancid to fuck, and besides, she loved her Andrew too much to betray him in such a manner,.
Andrew and Alejandra stayed married for 17 years, and they made love maybe six times in all that time. But as bad as that was, it got worse. One day, a cowboy who had sampled a little too much of the wares of Andrew's saloon, whipped out a pistol and began firing at the ceiling. Bullets ricocheted off the ceiling and the walls, and one caught Andrew in the back, squarely between his shoulders, exiting just inches from his heart. Andrew collapsed on the floor of his saloon, blood pouring out of him and staining the hardwood slats. A doctor happened to be in the saloon. He tried to stop the flow of blood, but it was just too much, and within five minutes, Andrew had no pulse.
Alejandra was PISSED. Now instead of a VERY occasional lover, she had NO lover at ALL, to satisfy her ever-growing horniness. Worse, the sleaziest cowboys, drunks, and rabble tried to "comfort" her out of her panties and into their beds. They ALL disgusted her beyond endurance! And she still had a year to go before she could let her son wander out alone into the world, and have time for herself and a man, without the duties of motherhood.
