Author's Note: If you are an historian especially of the Medieval Period of Europe and the Middle East please do be aware that I have taken some serious liberties with all sorts of things, especially the time the story is set in, the people, the battle tactics and the politics so please accept this as a work of complete and utter fiction and not a new and butchered version of Medieval history.

Iron John has been assiduous in looking after my estate and Esme my wife. He was there when she delivered my son and has written regularly to me with news of the estate and Esme. It is six weeks since the birth of my son and Iron John is visiting again.
Esme is sitting in her sitting room on a couch with the baby on her lap when Iron John walks into her room.
"You are looking well my lady. Full of the bloom of life. And the child is growing strong and healthy."
"Thank you John. Both baby and I are in the best of health but it is time for him to feed. You will not mind if I feed him while you tell me of what is happening at court? And relate to me any news of my beloved husband."
"Not in the least my lady. Please feed him. He must grow strong and healthy to follow in his fathers footsteps."
Esme opens her blouse to feed the baby and Iron John watches with great interest.
"And so? What news of the queen?"
"Her pregnancy is going well. She, like you is blossoming under the influence of motherhood and she has found much appetite for sex since conceiving. The king is rumoured to be well pleased but also admits to battling a little to keep up with the queen's increased appetite for sex."
"And you, my lord have been helping the king with the physical demands place on him?"
"Would I commit such a treasonous crime?"
Esme smiles at him.
"Yes my lord, I am sure that you will have been as solicitous of fulfilling the queen's needs as you have been in fulfilling mine."
"Of course my lady, but may I change the topic? I received news of Lord Robert last week."
"Oh. do tell! Is my faithless husband still mounting that woman you mentioned last time you had news of him?"
"No my lady. He has separated from her, much to everyone's relief. The break up was loud and acrimonious with open threats issued against him."
"By her? Not her husband?"
"By her. But rumour has it that she has gone into hiding while plotting revenge."
"She is a danger?
"She was, but I am told she may be neutralized by friends of your husband."
Esme moves the baby from one breast to the other, leaving a tumescent nipple clearly exposed for John to see.
"Friends? What friends? Not more of those Spanish women I have heard about?"
"No my lady. Not women, but I do not know any other details."
"Or you won't tell me."
John just just smiles at that, his eyes fixed on the exposed nipple. When the baby has fed, a maid arrives and takes the baby off for his bath and bed.
Esme looks Iron John up and down.
"Did that demonstration arouse you just a little bit my lord? By the looks of your pants, it did."
"Indeed it did Esme. Motherhood has made you even more desirable. Lord Robert is a lucky man."
"But very far away and a woman does have needs you know. Come sit beside me."
"Only with great pleasure my lady. You seem to have miss buttoned your blouse. May I fix it for you?"
"Oh! I didn't notice. Thank you. Please do."
"First let us undo all those buttons and then redo them."
"I do think you may have to. I made an awful mess of refastening them. Oh. I seem to be leaking milk. Baby obviously didn't drink his fill. Would you like to taste some?"
Esme rests back on the couch and Iron John takes a nipple in his mouth.
"Oh. A bit harder my lord, you will not get much of anything being so gentle."
He slides his hand up, cups her breast in his hand and bites on her nipple.
"Ah, I have missed a man's hands on me."
He slides his hand down to the hem of her dress, lifts it up and then runs his hands up, past her knees and between her thighs.
"My lord! Are you trying to seduce me? You are such a bad man to prey on a helpless woman who has not had her husbands hands on her for a very long time."
So saying she takes his hand and moves it upwards.
"Oh, my goodness. What can I do? You are far to strong for me. Oh. My pussy! It is so wet and ready for a man."
She reaches across and frees his cock from his pants and then laughs softly.
"I know why they call you Iron John. It is so hard. And my goodness, it is leaking fluid already. Let me taste it!" she swallows his cock right down to the balls.
"No Esme, let me pleasure you rather. I want to hear you moan."
"Oh! You make me faint with lust. I don't know what to do. Please help me to my bed."
He lays her on her bed, flips her skirts up above her waist and applies his tongue to her pussy.
She grasps his head in her hand and pulls it down.
"Oh, God! I have missed this! Please don't stop!"
As she starts to shudder, he stops, moves up between her legs and thrusts his cock deep inside her.
"Oh! Oh! Do it! Do it hard and fast. I need it now!"
He rides her hard and fast until she arches her back, pushing him up off the bed.
"Cum in me now!" and he pumps hot cum into her pussy.
Afterwards he strokes her body softly and, looking down sees his cum leaking out of her.
"You may need to explain a new baby to Lord Robert."
"Oh, no! I know how not to fall pregnant. I have stopped it before."
"But you were a virgin when you married Lord Robert!"
"Oh, you men are so gullible. I had plenty of lovers before him and fell pregnant at least twice. A woman has needs you know. I only allow special people into my pussy so my arse has been well used as well! Mind you I do so enjoy it and I was going to introduce Robert to anal but that bitch Jennifer got there before me. But his time will come. Now I see that your cock is recovering, I think that my arse needs some attention too."
Later that day, Esme says to Iron John:
"It is time for me to go to my husband and stop him playing fast and loose with all those Spanish women."
She sigh softly.
"And maybe I can get to taste some foreign cock myself"
"I will write to him immediately and begin arrangements for you to leave the moment he replies."

Eight months have passed since I arrived at the palace. Daily life is a round of hunting, banqueting and not much else. Also my official duties are not onerous and most days I am left to spar with the veterans and hunt with the king so I am becoming seriously bored. A highlight is when Mabel the maid servant I brought from England brings letters for me. One morning she arrives one with a bag of letters from the king in England. One letter is the usual report on my farm and Esme from Iron John. He writes that Lady Esme is delivered of a strong, fine son and both mother and baby are doing well. He also says that Lady Esme is missing me and demanding to know when she can join me in Spain.
I immediately sit down to write a letter telling Iron John that Esme must by all means come join me as soon as she and my son are strong and well enough to travel. Aside from anything else she will resolve my problems with relieving my sexual tensions.
One other letter grabs my attention. It is from Cook who has managed to learn to read and write. In her letter she explains that Bronwyn, Lady Judy's daughter and Tom the groundsman have been working together and producing wheat plants that surpass Lady Judy's first attempts. Then she says that she is sure that Tom and Bronwyn are close to wanting to marry, but are afraid that I might ban the marriage as Bronwyn is from a much higher class than Tom. Cook says that they would make a perfect couple and already in love. Please could I consider giving them permission to marry. I write back to Cook, telling her that the marriage can only go ahead if Bronwyn is willing. Tom must not be pressurising her.

With my rejection ringing in her ears, Conchita storms off to her husband Enrico in a total rage.
"That bastard has dumped me! Me! It is an insult. You must fight him. Pay him for his insolence."
"That will not please the king or your masters. They want him alive and on our side and right now you have lost the only hook we had on him. We need to rethink our plans."
"I want revenge! I want to hurt him. Badly. Make him suffer for the insult he has paid me. Do you even care?"
