Chapter 9

Over the next two days we stayed anchored up and just enjoyed life. Jake stayed with us on the yacht. All three men onboard were quite active at most times. Having five women to take care of was quite stimulating but also draining at the same time.

On the morning of the last day we stayed at anchor Jake and I discussed the cabin and what may be needed. Carl was helpful as well. We cruised over to our new home that afternoon, taking our time and enjoying the views all around us.

Pulling up to the dock I found that the yacht fit right in. We moved our things into our new home and with Jake's help Carl and I figured out all the necessary things to keep the place powered up and operating. Jake spent the night, and the next morning as the sun rose and the waters reflected the serenity of our new home, he fired up that floatplane and roared off into the air, headed for Juneau.

We spent the next week or so just getting ideas of what we wanted to do with the place, and learning what we needed to do to get us all settled in. Sandra had been staying with us, and using her skiff to run back and forth to her job.

One night I realized that my birthday was approaching. I knew that May was aware of when it was, but I didn't think anyone else did. I kept quiet, hoping that it would pass without fanfare. We took the yacht into Juneau and tied up there for two days while Carl and I went here and there and got bids for some additions to the cabin, and purchased some major appliances.

The girls took off and went shopping. I discovered that the local supermarkets would ship to remote areas, and also do what they called 'box orders'. Shopping in bulk for food items was Jan's specialty, so we all left her with figuring out what we needed. When she got together the list for our needs it was quite large.

I was so caught up in the new life I was embarking on, I truly forgot about my birthday fast approaching. May and I took some nice long walks, visited the glacier's, and even picked out some of the appliances together as well.

At the end of our stay, we loaded up the yacht with all we had purchased, other than the things that would be barged over by a local barge company. The contractors we had hired were all headed out to the cabin and work was started before we ever left Juneau.

We were fast becoming very close friends, all of us enjoying the company, and fitting in like family. John, my financial advisor had shown up and he accompanied us to our new home. On the way we talked.

"Bill, I see you and May seem very happy. I will say that you are the happiest I have seen you in quite some time too. I guess that it is good you didn't listen to me after all."

"John, you know you were doing what you thought was the right thing. You didn't understand the situation completely, and I know that you had fears of my losing all. As you can see, I didn't lose anything, but I did gain a whole new life."

"Yeah. You did. About this property you bought... did you have any lawyers go over the details yet?"

"Hell no. That isn't how it was done at all. Jake, the guy we bought it from took us out and showed it, then we talked turkey. Afterwards I just had the money transferred to him and it was a done deal. All it took on our part was a handshake. The title was transferred that afternoon, and I'm happy. It's rustic and needing work, but I saw that before I bought it. Jake is an honorable man. A bit crusty perhaps, but honorable."

"A handshake? You settled on a handshake? Man, that's rare now days. I hope that nothing comes up to screw things up for you now."

"Heh... that's what I pay you for. Taking care of the details that might come up."

"It appears to me that you have been doing my job then. I hope you realize that you could have gotten yourself into a real mess here."

"No offense John... but I was doing okay before you and I met. I'm not a total idiot you know."

"Bill, I'm just worried. Land deals are sometimes quite full of unknown bombs and pitfalls. For all you know, the Forest Service is about to take that property out there in a condemnation proceeding."

"Heh... I know that isn't true. Jake and the Forest service don't get along real well. Besides, this land has an ironclad title with no surprises. The title agent even mentioned that he hadn't seen such a straight forward land deal in quite some time."

"Well... you won't mind if I check into a few things will you?"

"You do what you think is necessary John. So... are you ready to see our piece of paradise then?

We were all loaded up on the yacht and with May in command, we set out for home. The day was sunny with only a hint of clouds up there. We all spent loads of time either on the bridge or on the decks soaking up the sun. Jake had mentioned the rainy season, and how dry it had been this year, but I just saw a normal summer day.

John stayed the day, then in the late afternoon; he flew out on a charter floatplane. I had mentioned getting a floatplane for our use out here, and he was to check into finding a nice one. Something that I could learn to fly without too much trouble. Carl and I were for sure going to get our pilots certificates and I think May and Jan were interested in learning to fly too.

That night, as Jan got dinner ready with the help of Anne, May began to act weird. She was guiding me around the house, not letting me get into the kitchen nor into our bedroom. I knew something was up, but not exactly what. Carl was no help either, as he just helped May in keeping me out of those areas.

About the time supper was ready, I heard a boat, actually a small skiff running up to our dock. Looking out over the deck, I saw Sandra getting out and tying off. I watched as she strolled up the dock and noticed that she had a package under her arm. I knew then that something had been planned for my birthday.

"Hey there beautiful. What's that under your arm?"

"That is none of your business... yet."

"Okay then. That skiff seems kind of small to be running out this far in. I mean your forest service cabin is quite a ways off. What if the weather got bad while you were in Icy Straights?"

"Oh Bill. You old worrywart. First of all, that skiff is mine. The 24 footer belongs to the Forest Service. I can't use it for my own private trips to wherever. Secondly, I have been up here for years and I'm pretty sure I can handle the weather."

"Oh, that's your skiff then?"

"Yep. Looks like it fits right in out there on the dock too doesn't it?"

I had to agree. Sandra was looking quite sexy too. She had on cut-off jeans and a T-shirt that was tied up just under the swell of her breasts. I could see that she had no bra on and her hard little nipples stuck out like little posts under the thin material, especially since that material was stretched so tight across her chest.

We went inside and as I made for the bathroom I saw the dinner table was set up for a party. I was a bit unsure of celebrating my birthday this year for some reason. Perhaps because I was not as young as I had been, or felt my age catching up with me.

Later, as we ate everyone was smiling and giggling whenever they looked at me. I was getting more and more nervous the longer dinner took. As we all finished eating, May and Jan brought out a large cake with candles burning. Everyone broke out into the 'Happy Birthday' song. I was impressed. The cake was quite well decorated; having everyone pictured, naked on the yacht. I could tell this was going to be a birthday to never forget.

After eating the cake and ice cream, I was guided out to the living room and sat on the big easy chair out in the middle of the floor. May came up to me and handed me a small gift. I opened it to find a great watch and a note.

The note read: 'Bill, this watch symbolizes our time together from this day forward. It also stands for times past. Whenever you look at this watch I want you to remember this summer and our trip from down South and all that happened. Love May.'

I looked up into her eyes and was startled to see her undoing the buttons on her blouse. As I sat there, May stripped in a slow and careful manner, until she was totally naked. Then she moved to sit on the right arm of my chair. Her hands were touching me and her breasts brushed the side of my face. I reached out and licked, then sucked on one nipple.

Julie was the next one to come up to me. She handed me my gift from her. It turned out to be a small video camera. It was a digital number with quite a nice lens.

The note on her present said this: 'Dad. This camera is for you to capture the times ahead. As with the watch May gave you, this is so you can remember the years ahead from today. I hope that you use it always, and as you watch scenes from it years from now, are as happy then as I see you now.'

I looked up only to find that Julie was half undressed, stripping in that same way May had. It turned out that each lady gave me a gift with a note attached, and after I read the note, they would strip and stand or kneel next to me. Soon I had five naked women all around me, touching and caressing me.

My last gift was from Carl. He handed me a set of keys. Looking at him, I didn't see a note nor did I see what the keys were for. A bit confused I finally had to ask.

"Okay, what are the keys for Carl?"

"These, Bill."

Holding out a box, I saw handcuffs and chains. It soon became apparent that his gift to me was all sorts of ways to tie and cuff someone up. His smile was wide and genuine as realization dawned on me.

"So, who's your first... um... subject?"

His hand pointed up towards the ceiling and I saw hooks had been installed. Then on the floor, he pulled away a rug and rings were inset into that hardwood floor too. It appeared that the living room had been made into a dual-purpose room for delights of a restraining variety. My blood pulsed as the women around me began to strip off my clothes.

For a bit it was crowded around me and I had so many hands touching me I couldn't tell whose hands were whose. As the last of my clothes left my body Carl handed me the chains. Some had collars some were with cuffs. I began by putting a collar and chain on May's neck. It was like a choker, but so much sexier.

After that, I took Julie and put her in arm and leg chains, then Sandra who got a collar and leg chains, Anne, who got arm chains, and finally, Jan, who I put a collar on. Then, with Carl's assistance, we hooked Julie up to the hooks and spread her legs, fastening each one to one of the rings in the floor.
