Two years ago my beloved wife Elizabeth passed away after losing her battle with cancer. Six months after she passed I was made redundant after twenty three years. I started working for myself as a consultant engineer, my office was our smallest bedroom at home.
Our daughter Annabelle, she preferred Anna, lived with her husband several hours away in the Midlands. Despite having a circle of friend's I tended to keep to myself since Elizabeth passed. Our friends meant well, I just didn't feel like socialising that much. Thanks to our insurance and my redundancy payout I could afford to work when I felt like it.
In one way Anna living so far away helped a lot, she was so much like her mother. Elizabeth was a very lively person, she always seemed happy no matter what life threw at her. Anna had the same temperament. My son-in-law Josh was the exact opposite, he was a difficult person to talk to. Josh had a few interests, his work and golf. Anything outside of that and he really wasn't bothered. Many times I wondered how he and Anna ever got together, on several occasions he made it clear he didn't want children.
My life changed one Saturday, I was sitting drinking a coffee and reading the paper. There was a knock at the door, I got up to answer it, dreading it would be a friend inviting me to a social gathering. I opened the door to be confronted with Anna crying.
"Daddy." Anna jumped inside and hugged me tightly.
I held Anna for a minute or so. "Anna, what on earth is wrong?"
"It's Josh." She sobbed.
"Is he hurt, has he had an accident?" I asked.
"No. He's leaving me, he wants a divorce." I led Anna through to the kitchen and sat her down. I poured her a cup of coffee.
I took her hand in mine. "Calm down and tell me what's wrong."
Anna wiped her eyes and calmed down. "Josh is away on a business trip. Two days ago he sent me an email saying that we need to talk when he gets back home. Naturally I asked what he wanted to talk about." Anna sniffed and blew her nose. "Eventually he answered. Apparently he has been having an affair with a woman at work, now she is pregnant. Josh said he wants to be with her and he wants a divorce. I think he is being forced to marry her."
"So, there's no chance for you? You are getting a divorce?" "Are you divorcing him?"
"Yes. Absolutely I am not staying with him after this, an affair is bad enough, but now this woman is pregnant. It's over between us, I told him that in my last email to him."
"Email? Couldn't you tell him over the phone?"
"No, because the coward refused to answer my calls." Anna was bordering on anger and bursting into tears again.
"So what will you do? You know about work and stuff?" I asked, almost sure I knew her answer.
"I have resigned from work. Can I move back here Daddy? It will only be until I am sorted out with a job and somewhere to live."
"Of course you can." Anna leapt up and hugged me. "Thank you, Daddy."
I found it strange that even as a grown woman she still referred to me as Daddy. We finished our coffee and went to get Anna's stuff from her car. Having Anna living back at home was going to be tough for me, she would be another reminder of her late mother.
I looked inside her car. "Did you leave him anything?" I laughed.
"Yes. The house is his. All I have taken is what's mine, clothes, toiletries and personal stuff like books, CD's and DVD's. He is welcome to everything else."
Anna moved into her old room, there was a wardrobe and dressing table in the room. She purchased some bookshelves for her books, CD's and DVD's. A week after Anna moved back home she found a job, an old employer took her back on a decent salary.
Many times I watched Anna as she did things at home, she reminded me a lot of her mother. I tried to put those thoughts out of my mind.
Anna arrived home from work, there was mail for her. I guessed it was the divorce papers, I was right. I sat with Anna as she read through them, it seemed that Josh had accepted Anna had taken what was hers and no more. She signed the papers and returned them the following day. I took a phone call from Josh's father one afternoon, he practically accused Anna of causing the divorce.
"Brian, has Anna taken leave of her senses, moving out while my son was away on business."
He didn't take kindly to me reminding him that it was his son who got another woman pregnant. It was his son who wanted the divorce. My final comment of 'go fuck yourself' ended the conversation.
Anna spent most evenings at home with me, she did occasionally go out with her female colleagues. I asked if there were any men she liked at work.
"Not interested, Daddy. Right now committing to another relationship is not on the cards."
Since my wife had passed away I did my own housework. Anna had taken to helping out around the house. One evening Anna was putting away clothes she had ironed, she went to put my shirt in the wardrobe. That was when she noticed I still had all of Elizabeth's clothes hanging up.
"Daddy, I thought you were getting rid of Mum's clothes?"
"I was. I just couldn't bring myself to do it."
"Do you want me to help, or do it for you?" Anna asked.
"Would you mind doing it for me, I can't bring myself to get rid of her stuff. Feel free to keep anything you want, I know she had a cocktail dress you always liked." Anna said she would sort her Mum's stuff out for me.
Anna sorted through her late Mum's clothes, she kept a jacket and the cocktail dress she liked.
"Wow, Mum had some nice lingerie." Anna remarked.
"Yes, she did. Your Mum always liked to feel good in whatever she wore." I watched as Anna admired the various sets of lingerie. Some were bra and panty sets, others included a suspender belt.
I thought back to before Elizabeth was taken ill, I used to love watching her undress for bed. She always looked gorgeous and sexy when she wore suspender belts and stockings. Undressing her when we made love always aroused me.
"I guess that's where I get my love of lingerie from." Anna said.
"Sorry, I was miles away thinking about something." I replied.
"I said, Mum must have passed her love of lingerie on to me. I bet you were thinking of Mum looking sexy in some of this." Anna giggled.
"Yes, yes I was. Your Mum looked lovely in her lingerie."
"I can remember sitting talking to her when she was getting ready to go out, she looked so hot in most of this stuff." Anna waved her hand over the lingerie. "If I was that way inclined and she wasn't my Mum, I would have been interested. I know she got admiring looks from men and women alike."
"That she did. Your Mum had the decency to never flaunt herself or make people feel bad because she looked good, that was one of many things I loved her for." I sat there and watched as Anna piled the lingerie into a black bag, it seemed a shame to throw it out. Suddenly Anna's comment about her love of lingerie struck me, perversely it got me thinking of my daughter in similar lingerie. I shook my head to get the thoughts out of my mind.
Anna sat down beside me. "Are you okay, Daddy?"
I nodded my head. "Just thinking of your Mum." I lied.
Anna had been back home for just over a month. She didn't seem to be looking for somewhere to live, I was in no rush to see her leave. I had taken to watching her as she moved around the house. I was sitting in the kitchen one morning when Anna was doing laundry, she upended her laundry basket to sort it out. Delicates in one pile, just like her Mum used to do. That was when I noticed some of her lingerie. Some of her panties were sheer with a tiny lace panel at the front, there were sets of different colours. One set was red edged with what looked like black lace, I started to have some very impure thoughts.
Tuesday morning I had an early call with a client, for that reason I was out of bed before eight o'clock. As I walked back to my bedroom I looked into Anna's room, the door was open slightly. I watched her reflection in the mirror as she dressed. She was wearing pale blue lace lingerie, I watched as she pulled the stocking up her leg and clipped it to the suspender belt. My daughter had shapely legs. I could see Anna's bum as she turned to put on her blouse, the lace panties hugged her smooth skin.
I turned away to my bedroom, the towel around my waist tented by my erection. Leaning against the door I closed my eyes, for a brief moment I imagined it was Elizabeth getting dressed.
The elegant way she rested her leg on the stool as she slid the stocking up her leg, the way she turned and made sure everything was just so before she continued dressing.
In the room Anna smiled, she had deliberately left the door ajar knowing she could be seen.
"I'll see you later, Daddy." Anna called out as she left for work.
"Yes okay. Okay I'll see you this evening, have a good day." I called out.
I dressed quickly and went downstairs for a coffee. I needed to get my head straight before the phone call.
The phone call with my client took longer than I thought, mostly due to some changes they were making. When the call was over I needed to pee, I walked quickly to the bathroom to relieve my bladder.
I was about to go downstairs and make myself a coffee before starting on some work, as I walked past Anna's room something compelled me to look in her room. As I expected it was tidy, very tidy. Her bed was made and there was no clothing discarded on the floor. I looked at her laundry basket, there were a pair of pale green sheer panties and matching bra on the top of the pile. I lifted them out and imagined Anna wearing them. I held the crotch to my nose and inhaled her scent, the panties were a size 12. I dropped the panties back in the basket. The bra was a 34c, both the same as her Mum.
I smiled as I looked around the room, everything was neatly laid out, just like her Mum I thought. There was a tube of something on the bedside cabinet that caught my eye, water based lubricant. I knew there was one reason for having that, so I invaded her privacy further and opened the drawer. Inside was a small vibrator and a dildo. The dildo was about seven inches long and of average girth, I put it back and closed the drawer.
My mind was running riot as I drank my coffee, I visualised Anna masturbating with the dildo. I wondered if she was that desperate for cock why she didn't date, even if it was only to get laid, we all have needs. I went back to my desk and concentrated on work, putting all thoughts of Anna out of my head. I managed to get a lot of work done.
"I'm home." Anna called out.
I went to greet her. "Sorry I haven't started dinner, it's been a busy day and time got away from me."
Anna kissed my cheek. "No problem, Daddy. You go and finish your work, I'll cook dinner." I watched Anna as she walked to the kitchen, the elegant way her arse wiggled. I turned before she saw me staring at her. I finished the work and closed my laptop down for the night. I went back to the kitchen.
"Busier day than you expected?" Anna asked.
"Yes, very. The client wanted to make changes to something, luckily it hasn't taken me too long to amend everything. How was your day?"
"Okay, nothing to get excited about. I do have a favour to ask you."
"Okay, what's the favour?"
"Our company Christmas party is next month, I was wondering if I could trouble you to give me a lift to it?"
"Of course. What date, and where is it?"
"Saturday 23rd, it's being held at that new hotel just off the ring road."
"No problem, do you want me to pick you up later, or will you be staying out?" I grinned
