Part 7: Tattoos and Shopping are Fun
I attended classes and had a test in chemistry that I forgot to study for. It's not like I've had a lot of time to study. It occurred to me I had my chemistry tutor, and I would use her for some help; I just hope I didn't fail it. I ran into Julie at lunch, and when she saw me coming, she jumped up and give me a big hug and kiss. This drew some eyes our way, but considering it was High School and you see guys and girls kissing all the time, the attention was short-lived. I let it go. I didn't see the need to contain her excitement for me, and I loved it. It was ok if it didn't draw too much attention.
"Rich, I'm glad to see you." Julie said as she sat down. "I missed you so much. All I could think about was seeing you at lunch. I could barely concentrate on my classes. Did you miss me? What did you think about this morning?"
I had to stop her there. I explained to her in a low voice that we could not discuss any business in public. She looked embarrassed and apologized immediately. I told her it was ok.
"I missed you too, Julie." I replied, "I'm also distracted, so much so that I forgot to study for a test. I have been thinking about you a lot. I had a great time last night, and you were my highlight."
I was being vague in case anyone overhead us, but Julie knew what I was saying. She smiled big and said, "You damn right, mister! You're lucky to have me. Just make sure you keep me. You never know when someone may come along and want a piece!"
"Julie, you don't have to worry about that!" I answered playfully. "I'm holding on to you with everything that I have!"
I had not seen this side of her before. She was always nice, and we had a good time, but this Julie was confident and playful; I loved it. I loved to see her cheerful, and it was like I lifted an enormous weight from her. It's funny to think that being put under the control of another person and owned by a motorcycle club would elicit this response. I knew she loved me, and part of her happiness was surely that, but I don't think it accounted for all of it. There was something else there.
The rest of the day seemed longer than the 2 hours it took. When I finally heard the bell for dismissal, I hurried out to the car where Julie was already standing. We kissed, climbed in the car, and drove over to pick up her mother.
"Julie, you were downright ecstatic at lunch." I mentioned. "I've never seen you that confident except last night. I guess you're ok with all the changes."
"Oh my gosh Rich, am I ever." She replied. "You helped us get from under that asshole, so I never have to see him again. You don't know what damage he caused to us. Mom was the one getting abused from the beginning, but I knew what was happening. I was almost 15 when it started. I didn't catch on at first, thinking Mom just had a boyfriend. Then I started noticing him over a lot, then with some of his friends. They never purposely did anything in front of me, but they would make comments like, "I can't wait until you're 18," and "You're going to make a beautiful woman." You know, things like that. They would always stare at me when I was in the room. It just made me feel uncomfortable. That's when I started wearing baggy clothes and becoming withdrawn. I didn't want to be around any boys. Then the girls stopped hanging out with me because I was dressing like that. I just withdrew and spent years by myself."
Julie continued, "After a while, I noticed my mother dress differently, and she was gone a lot more. She started wearing slutty clothes, and when she came home, she would be disheveled and sometimes crying. She would never tell me what happened, but I knew something was wrong. One time I spied on them when they were in my Mom's room and saw them having sex with her. She had a vacant look in her eyes, like she was a million miles away. They caught me and made me watch. My mother was crying, begging them to get me out, but they just laughed. After that they didn't hide it, often abusing my mother right out in the open. I would always run to my room, but sometimes they made me stay. They never touched me, but I still felt dirty."
"My mother became a shell of the woman she was." Julie explained, looking sad, "Her confidence was gone, her self-esteem shattered, and she was despondent all the time. She still did her best to take care of me, making sure I had everything I needed, but I didn't have the one thing I wanted: my Mom. I felt I was all alone. Nicole was there, but my mother wasn't. She was just going through the motions. She just had little left to give me."
"Then I turned 18 and my life became a living hell." Julie was becoming angry as she continued. "Bob, her boss; I hate that name! Bob, he came over and they threw me an 18
th
birthday party. They had cake and presents, like, what the hell. They made Mom serve us in a French maid's outfit with nothing underneath, and it showed everything she had. They made me open my presents, which comprised many sex toys and restraints. I didn't know what half the stuff was. Then Bob announced he was going to unwrap his present; me."
Julie started straight ahead with a look of disgust as she continued. "The other men grabbed me and held me up, then Bob came over and undressed me. When I was naked, he put cuffs on me and secured my hands behind my back. He put a gag in my mouth and pushed me down on the floor. During all of this, Mom was forced to suck each man's dick while they watched me get prepared. Once I was on the floor, Bob undressed and climbed on top of me. He put some lubricant on his dick and just pushed right inside me. I was a virgin, and it hurt like hell. I started screaming behind the gag and crying as he fucked me. I could hear my mother crying and screaming also, and they made her watch. When Bob finished with me, each man came over and fucked me. It went on like that for the rest of the night."
Julie sighed, paused for a few seconds, then continued. "After that, I was included in the fun and games when they would come over. They didn't make me wear the slutty clothes like my Mom, they said they were too expensive, and I wasn't sexy enough for anything like that. They treated me like trash, and I felt like trash. My mother would still go out, thank goodness I never had to, but afterward, they would come over and fuck me. Bob made me suck him off when I came home from school, often taking me back and fucking me in front of my mother, then making her clean his dick and lick me clean as well."
"They would make us 69 each other for their entertainment, whipping whoever was on top until we pretend to climax." Julie explained, "They all applauded, and the one who climaxed first would get the honor of sucking their dicks. The loser would get tied up and spanked, then hogtied and left on the floor while the winner got fucked by all the men. The loser, still tied up, would have to clean their cocks. When the men recovered, they would all fuck the loser in the ass as punishment for losing. Mom 'lost' all the time to protect me from as much as she could. I wanted to kill all of them. If I ever see them again, I probably will!"
Julie looked over at me and continued, "When we moved, the abuse continued, but that's when I met you. You were the one bright spot in my life. When I was with you, I could forget all the shit, if even for just a little while. I looked forward to seeing you each day and would daydream that you would ride in and rescue us from our nightmare. And you know what, you did! I still can't believe it."
Julie was smiling, and the light came back into her eyes. "I wasn't sure what to think at first when you three walked through the door and told us you owned us. I didn't know if you would be the same person who I was dating, but you've become so much more. You didn't see my mother last night after we left. She was positively beaming. She was so happy and smiling so big that I thought her face was going to break. She kept telling me everything would be ok. She was gushing over you, saying how she was happy that I had found you. She didn't want to make it weird between us, but she admitted to having a crush on you, too. But the thing that sold me was I had my Mom back. We went home, put on some music, and sang and danced for a short while. We hadn't done that since I was 14, before all the abuse started. Afterward, we both broke down crying, but it was a good cry. I think all the years of shit were breaking loose and falling off us. We have you to thank for that, and I will never forget."
I was feeling a little embarrassed. Was I responsible for all of that? Sure, I saved them from that asshole Bob, but what she's telling me eclipsed that. They were looking at me as someone bigger than I was. I wasn't a hero; I was just an 18 years old 'kid' that barely knew his ass from a hole in the ground. I was sure I would screw up sometimes, disappoint them, and when it happened, would their view of me be shattered?
"Julie, every time you tell me more of your and Mom's abuse it gets worse." I replied, shaking my head, trying to grasp the amount of abuse the two women received. "Man, I am so, so sorry you were subjected to that. I just want you to know I love you. You must understand, though, I'm just a normal person. I'm trying to do my best as I figure out how I'm supposed to act, what I'm supposed to do. It may not look like it, but I have my insecurities and doubts. I don't want to let any of you down. That would kill me if I did, yet I'm afraid that I will fail eventually in something. What will you think of me then?"
"Rich, I'm not worried about you failing us," Julie answered. "That it bothers you and causes you to worry tells me we are in excellent hands. You don't have to go through this alone. You have me for one, but I'm sure Beth and my mom will stand right behind you. And as you said, you would protect us with your life. I will do the same. I will let no one mess with you, I promise you that. I am subservient to you, sure, and I'll do what you tell me, but know that I'm here to take care of you as well. You are my responsibility just as much as I am yours. This is a two-way street."
I didn't think of it that way. I was only considering my responsibility for protecting and caring for the women. It was also in their interest to care for and protect me. I was standing between them and who knows what or who if something happened to me. I know what Beth was subject to when my father died, being used by Benjamin and Roger. I was determined not to let that happen to them. I'm sure they would take care of me to prevent that as well. And I hoped they would do it because they cared for me.
