The following Wednesday the video of the wedding was delivered to my home. I called Mother to join me so we could watch it together and she duly arrived a few minutes later.
"Hi Robert, that was quick, I didn't expect to get the video yet, somebody has worked hard."
As usual Mother was nude, that was her normal dress code when at home, She sat on the settee and rang the kitchen for tea. June entered the room carrying tea and biscuits five minutes later. June was also nude, she was going to retire until I allowed the staff to dress, or not, as they did during my father and grandfathers time.
"Anything else you require, your Lordship," she asked me and then looked to my Mother. Mother shook her head and June curtsied and left the room.
"Are you ready to see the video?" I asked Mother as she poured the tea into cups?"
"I thought that was why you called me to your room, unless you would rather fuck me," she asked coyly.
"You're insatiable, Mother, is that all you think about?"
"You know I like sex and you're my son so you should be taking care of me," she smiled.
Mother sat so she faced me with her legs open slightly and I was tempted, very tempted, but I wanted to see the video first, and started the dvd player.
The first scenes showed the hall full of naked people standing and talking, drinking and waiting for the ceremony to take place. We watched the video to the end. We saw Mother introducing me to the other guests, both of us running round the race course and me fucking the bride.
"You certainly made a good job of fucking Greta." Mother said. "I missed most of that as I was being fucked by Sir John Moore at the time along with two others that I don't know. I saw the end because everybody stopped fucking to watch you and Greta"
"I want to talk to you about Adele, tomorrow I am sending Robinson to pick her up to spend a few days with us, what do you think?"
"That's good, anything I can do to help," Mother asked.
"Yes, I think Adele may be the one, the next countess, she comes from a good family and seems very fond of me. I like her and she could give me a son to carry on the line. I don't just want a brood mare but a lover and friend."
"To this end I want to greet her as a prospective bride so on her arrival I want everybody dressed so that we meet as a normal, aristocratic family. I want to get to know Adele," I said, looking at Mother for her reaction.
"That is an excellent idea, Robert, if you are contemplating marriage then you must have the right woman to bear your offspring. You need a son to carry on the line so I agree that Adele spending some time here will help you get to know her better. I will let the staff know your wishes while she is here." Mother said.
Mother left then, swaying her hips provocatively, to speak to the staff and I relaxed to think about my future. Marriage was a big step but a necessary one, and I wanted to ensure that I make the right decision.
I was deep in thought when Mother returned and shook my shoulder. I had fallen asleep with my thoughts and Mothers return had surprised me. "Am I dressed appropriately?" she asked.
She was wearing a skirt that reached her knees and a blouse that showed she was a woman but discretely. She wore a pair of black brogues. Mother looked matronly as becomes a dowager countess and mother.
"Wow, Mother, you certainly look the part, I'm impressed."
"I've instructed the staff that they must be fully dressed for Adele's visit, they are happy as they are aware that you must marry. You haven't answered my question yet." she said.
"You look very well, I've not seen you so well dressed for months."
"I'm glad you approve." Mother then lifted her blouse to show me her naked breasts before raising her skirt to show she wasn't wearing knickers.
I laughed at her, "You are incorrigible."
"As you approve, this is what I'll wear when Adele arrives but till then I don't need them." She stripped and said, "ah, that feels better."
Early next morning Robinson drove to Adele's house. I sent a letter to Adele as an invitation, it was written in Times New Roman so she would know how to respond. It was only a short distance to her home but she didn't arrive until noon. Charles showed her into my drawing room and we hugged our mutual greetings.
"I would have been earlier but when I read your letter I had to get an overnight case and some respectable clothes." she said, She had recognised the font and realised that the invitation was formal.
She wore a plaid skirt that reached just above her knee and a white shirt that hid her breasts, and what Mother would call sensible shoes.
"Why so formal?" she asked.
"When we last spoke you said you love me and I am very fond of you. We have had a couple of sexual encounters and I've, I should say we, have seen each other naked, But is that enough for a marriage?"
Adele gasped "marriage, is that what you are seeking, I told you I love you and I really do but I never thought you would have me as your wife. Do you really mean that?"
"I've given this a lot of thought these past few days and I've come to the conclusion that marry I must and have at least one son to carry on the line. I enjoy your company and now I want to find out if we could be compatible as friends as well as lovers. Does that make sense to you?"
Adele thought for a few seconds before answering. "I fell in love with you the first time we had sex, at the Henley Regatta. You were so considerate to me while making love, ensuring I was satisfied before you came. The next time, just after the Derby at Epsom you was just as caring. That is why I've not had a steady boyfriend since, I wanted you and I wanted you to have me. How do you intend to find out if we are compatible?"
"You are going to the BBQ on Saturday?" She nodded her affirmation. "Well, you are my guest till we go to the barbie and I thought we could visit places of interest, have dinner out, go to the cinema or theatre, you know, things like that. What do you think of that?"
"You are such a romantic, that sounds lovely."
I rang for tea and June entered the room minutes later with tea and biscuits on a tray but it was was her clothes that disturbed me. She placed the tray on the coffee table and asked if there were any thing else I required and left the room when I said no,
I rang mother and asked her to come to my room. A few minutes later and after the introductions and hugging, Mother asked if there was a problem.
"Yes, Mother, I thought you had given instructions that the staff would be dressed appropriately." She said that was the case.
"Then why was June dressed inappropriately?"
Mother looked amazed, "yes I did, look at me, so what's the problem?"
Mother wore what she showed me yesterday but she failed to instruct the staff properly. "June just served us tea dressed in a figure hugging top that accentuated her tits and her nipples stuck out like organ stops. To top that she wore a skirt so short it barely covered her arse when she was standing but when she bent over to place the tray on the coffee table I could she she wasn't wearing knickers. Mother please sort this out, I'll deal with June in due course."
Mother looked crestfallen, she was a brilliant organiser when running the household. "I'm sorry, Master, I'll sort this out immediately and you won't have any more problems with staff clothing." she curtsied and left the room like a bat out of hell.
I turned my attention back to Adele who was smirking. "What's your problem?"
"Did your mother call you Master? Will I have to call you Master if we marry and since when do you worry about women dressed like slappers?"
I sighed, this was for me a bad start to Adele's visit. "Adele, I told you I want us to get to know each other and this incident has annoyed me. Mother calls me Master infrequently and you won't have to ever call me that. The staff were ordered to dress presentable."
I sat down feeling frustrated and Adele sat beside me and put her arms around me. "Don't get upset, Robert, let your mother sort out the domestic problems and let us go to the local pub for a pint and decide what to do for the next two days."
Adele comforting me raised my spirits and showed me her caring side so the events today turned out to be profitable. "I may look well dressed but I refuse to wear underwear, will that be a problem?" she asked.
I just shook my head and muttered "women".
We spent that day in each others company, and I became aware of just how agreeable Adele was and I quickly felt close to her. We held hands as we left the pub and went and found Robinson to take us to a National Trust house and garden.
So that's how we spent Thursday and Friday, we went to local tourist places and ate and drank in very good restaurants. By Friday Adele had stolen my heart and after we returned home from the restaurant we sat in my drawing room drinking tea. "Adele, I've enjoyed your company these past two days very much, have you enjoyed yourself."
"I have, Robert, it's been a pleasure for me, just being with you has made me very happy."
I rose and knelt in front of her, in my hand was the engagement ring that had encompassed the finger of every wife of every Earl of Bamford since the sixteenth century. "Adele, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife."
"Yes, Master, I will, gladly." she whispered and threw herself into my arms and kissed me.
