The following chapter of this story, "My Destiny," takes the lead Character further down her path in life, exploring her sexual limits and life challenges. I opened by revisiting the cause of Elizabeth's journey down her own path, not one dictated by tradition and family.
While the story predominantly contains a same-sex (Lesbian) theme, there is an occasional "Incest and Bisexual themes" If this is not your thing, I apologise. I am also dropping additional bits to the storyline that will allow me to develop the main characters further should you, the reader, be interested.
I hope you enjoy this latest instalment, and as always, I appreciate your feedback.

The still morning air was refreshing as I ran off my sleep before a new day of work and adventure. Even though the sun was rising over this fantastic country, the heat was already evident, indicating it would be another scorcher. My morning runs always allowed me to clear my head and sort out any emotions that were running wild. Lately, they have allowed me to think about my life's direction in the last six months.
My name is Elizabeth Richards. I am the Daughter of Marcus and Johannah and twin to Eric. My family is amongst the wealthiest and oldest in the United States. My life should have been one of luxury and ease with a destiny set from the day I was born. However, I was born female, and my father's old-fashioned ways and thinking tried to form me into a subservient future wife to someone of his choosing. He didn't count on my independent streak or the subtle influence of my mother.
My whole world was turned upside down when, not long after my last birthday, my brother attempted to climb into bed with me. I rewarded his efforts with a swift kick in the crotch, rupturing one of his testicles.
My father unleashed his full wrath, and not only did he whip me to near unconsciousness, but he stole my innocence. I did try to fight back as he fucked me, and for this, I received a further beating.
It took weeks for me to be able to walk again. My wounds did heal, but I was left with scars on my back and thighs, giving me a permanent reminder of that day. After I recovered, he sent me to boarding school in Australia. At the time, I hated my mother for not standing up to me and stopping my torture, but I recently found out that she had instigated the whole scheme to get me away from my father's influence.
My mother had manipulated my father into sending me "into isolation" to allow me to grow out of my rebellious stage and thus accept his wishes for my future. She wanted me free to become the person I wanted to be, not the one dictated by my father.
The day I left the house was like being banished, with no love, no good wishes, just a stern look from my mother before the driver dropped me off at the airport to start my new life. Since I left, I have met six of the world's most unique and loving people. Annie was the first person I met in Australia when she picked me up from the airport. She was one of my future teachers and sporting coaches, and her husband, Michael, is a fantastic friend who has, without much effort, hooked me on gliding and parachuting. Then, my best friend and lover, Bella, and her parents, Hannah and Ryan.
Last but not least, there is my friend, confident Julie. My mother commissioned her to help manage my financial and legal needs. I also now know she has been feeding information back to my mother about my welfare and achievements.
After the school year finished a week ago, I joined Bella and her family on their farm for the first half of the holidays. Their property was about a ten-hour drive West of the school and operated as a grain and beef farm. The country was breathtaking, and I spent any free moment indulging in my one true hobby, photography. I had become good with the camera over the years, and before the end of the school year, I won several accolades in the World Photography Society portrait competition. I also received an offer to do some private work for one of my school's patrons, Steven and Sophie Phillips.
I am a fit 17-year-old, just over six foot in height, with a trim athletic body and nice firm 32B breasts. I was blessed with flaming red hair and emerald green eyes that complemented my natural beauty. Apart from the scars on my back, the one flaw in my body is my enlarged clit. It stands out above my labia, and when aroused, it stands erect like a little pink hooded penis. Despite my initial embarrassment about this abnormality, my partners love it as it is large enough to rub inside their lips, giving additional erotic stimulation.
Unlike my father, who was very traditional in his thinking about marriage and regular relationships, Bella's parents were more accepting of my sexuality and relationship with their Daughter. They even allowed us to share a bed during my stay.
Of course, I couldn't keep my private life simple, as well, and I enjoyed many erotic adventures with her mum; I have also enjoyed relationships with all my close friends. There are no secrets between us, and our love is undeniable.
When I returned to the house, I sat on the veranda swing to enjoy the scenery and some much-needed water. The whole house was quiet except for some sounds in the kitchen. I knew it would be Ryan making his breakfast. Sure enough, a few moments later, the peace was shattered when he opened the door holding two cups of coffee. Ryan handed one to me before taking a seat next to me. After he sipped his brew, he looked at me and noticed the look of deep thought. He said, "A Penny for your thoughts". This was one of his many sayings and, at that moment, seemed an apt thing to say.
I told him I had been thinking a lot about what had happened to me over the last few months, particularly what my mother had done for me without me being able to thank her or, for that matter, appreciate what she had sacrificed for my happiness. I also told him about the confusion I felt about my lack of shame and embarrassment of having multiple sexual relationships with my dearest friends, all while being in a loving relationship with Bella.
I'm not sure he was expecting my comments, but he didn't hesitate to reply. We talked about my family, and one comment I remember was when he asked if I thought my mother became trapped in her life and, while content, wanted me to take my path to my future.
When we moved the conversation to our multiple partners, I couldn't help but ask him about the morning at the pool when I gave him and Michael a blow job. His surprise was evident when I asked him why he didn't try to take things further and have sex with me. His response made me realise exactly why I loved and respected him. He told me that I had made him so excited that he could quickly have taken me there and then, but that's not the way consent and respect work. No matter what happens now or in the future, I will always be in the driver's seat regarding my desires and our mutual fun. He told me he was aware of what my father had done to me and that it would never happen again. He leaned in, kissed me, and hugged me again, telling me never to forget that I am my own person and nobody can take that away.
We sat silently for a moment before Hannah joined us for a morning coffee. Ryan gave up his seat for her and kissed her before heading to the shed to check their car before Hannah and Bella headed to town. After he left, I cuddled up to Hannah and placed my head against her breasts. She put her arm over my shoulder, and we enjoyed each other's warmth and company.
Hannah broke the silence by asking me if I was OK. She showed genuine concern for my well-being, especially given the mental turmoil I had been suffering from over the last few months. I told her I was starting to regain my focus but was still trying to process many of the why-me questions. I also told her about the conversation I had just had with Ryan. She was impressed with her husband's wisdom; her love for him was undeniable.
She didn't add to the advice but just told me that many lives had changed for the better since I came to Australia. I haven't left a wake of destruction in my path. Instead, I have enhanced their love beyond anything I could imagine. As for my worry, she told me to put my mind at ease as we were all past the age of consent, and as long as we remain honest and respect each other's limits, it is alright to keep our discrete adventures going. With this, she gave me a passionate kiss before telling me to get Bella out of bed as they had a bit of a drive to get through.
In my short time in Australia, I have found the locals have a strange sense of time and distance. The drive Hannah was talking about was a five-hour one-way trip to the next main town, and the last time I heard "not far now", I put six hours of highway experience in my learner driver log book.
Bella was still dozing when I entered our room. Since we got home, she had been a little lazy with her early morning fitness regime. Our late-night sexual encounters could have been a part of this, but I wasn't going to give her that excuse to use.
