Rachel Carlson drove the Bentley convertible with a revealing efficiency. She cruised I-70 into Kinston, and then began weaving her way through the maze of secondary roads to her parent's isolated estate. Her mother, Lulabelle, was off on her annual shopping trip with her sisters in New Orleans. Rachel's lover, Simone Van Nice, of the stage, screen and music video, was spending six weeks in a very expensive spa for rejuvenation treatments, otherwise known as plastic surgery. Rachel and her father, Bruce, were left on their own and had decided to spend some quality father-daughter time.
Easing through the gates, Rachel felt herself release. For the last three years, on her parents advice, Rachel had left her studies/surfing at UNC-Wilmington and accepted the lascivious proposition of the internationally famous, stunningly beautiful, queer as a two dollar bill, and, most importantly, billionaire rich Simone Van Nice, who had spotted the curvaceous, 6'3" surfer chick while she was filming "Deadly at Midnight". Simone was a 5' bundle of nervous energy and raw power. Her hair had been golden curls for the movie.
Rachel smiled, remembering how Simone had approached her head on, declaring in her Montana drawl, "You are the most magnificent piece of horseflesh I have ever seen. I want to lick you until your pussy runs dry. What do you say?"
Rachel had known who Simone was. She also knew she wasn't a lesbian. However, her knuckles slowly grazed Simone's pouty mouth, back and forth slowly before she looked her in the eye. "I would say my pussy is most assuredly in need of a good tongue lashing." That was three years ago. Simone was throwing a huge party for Rachel's twenty-first birthday. And, though she was not supposed to know, Simone was going to propose to Rachel at 6:57 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, to celebrate Rachel's arrival into the world.
"Hey, baby girl."
Rachel turned at the sound of her father's voice, her face lighting up with happiness. "Daddy!" she laughed, dropping her travel bag and swinging her arms around her father, who lifted her off the ground and swung her around. " I cannot begin to tell you how delicious it is to be able to look UP into a man's face," Rachel sighed, kissing her father on last time, " I know it's the same old lament, but really. One would think the jet set would include some decent sized men."
Bruce looked at the younger, six inches shorter, female version of himself. Pale blond hair, pale blue eyes, and deeply tanned skin and ruby red lips. They were good looking stock, Rachel and he. They chattered all through dinner, catching one another up on gossip and happenings and business. "So, baby girl, what's been bothering you all night?" Bruce asked his daughter as they sat watching the stars poolside.
Rachel took a long pull of her brandy before answering. "Has Simone called to ask your permission for my hand in marriage?" Rachel asked, looking up at her father.
Bruce nodded. "I told her nothing would make me happier than to call her daughter. Made her cry." Bruce sipped his brandy before asking, "Are you going to accept?"
