I sipped at my iced tea, watching my mother as she stood at the kitchen counter, deftly chopping vegetables. God, it felt good to be home. I'd just finished a brutal year of college, and looked forward to a relaxing summer with Mom.

You might have heard of my mother, actually, except that I can't tell you her name. She's a fairly successful author of historical novels. She ditched my loser of a dad when I was ten, and has been content to live on her own ever since, raising me along the way. She's still beautiful, and could easily have found another husband, but chose not to. I thought she simply wasn't interested in finding a new love -- but as you will soon see, there were a few things I didn't know about my mother.

Anyhow, I'd just finished my tea and put the glass in the sink when she said, "Would you get my glasses, honey? They're on top of the short bookshelf in the study."

I walked along the wide hallway over the deep pile carpet that we'd had since before I was born, absently looking for shapes and faces in the curlicues that adorned the wallpaper -- something I'd enjoyed doing as a little girl. It always made me feel at home.

Mom's study was also the house's library, a room crammed to the ceiling with books filled with wondrous things. I'd read many of them growing up, and those thousands of pages I'd thumbed through had left me with a real thirst for the written word. I was very much my mother's daughter in that respect.

Picking up her glasses, I wandered happily through the room, breathing deeply of that scent I loved so well -- of paper, bound up in volumes of many hues and shades. Each one waited patiently, eager to be picked from its shelf and browsed; pages turned, ideas absorbed.

I seated myself behind Mom's desk, allowing myself a leisurely carousel spin in her chair. As my last turn came to a slow stop, I spied a thin manuscript lying upside down on the desk with a bookmark I'd given my mother on my last visit -- a laminated strip of Belgian postage stamps -- inserted about halfway into it. Curious, I turned it over.

The title showing through the clear plastic cover startled me -- My Daughter, My Lover, my mother's name typed neatly underneath. I stared at the words, puzzled.

I began to flip though the pages, reading occasional passages, my eyes widening as I took in the story. My God, Mom had written a story about incest -- lesbian incest, no less!

My body began to throb as I found myself quickly engrossed in this tale of a mother who takes her own daughter to bed and makes passionate love to her. My arousal only grew stronger as I pored through the part where the daughter returns the favor, licking her way down her mother's body and eating her wet pussy.

Since the beginning of my freshman year of college I'd experienced lesbian sex many times and loved it, so to discover that Mom was writing stories like this was equally as exciting as it was shocking. And I could have been mistaken, I suppose, but ... the character of the daughter seemed a lot like me.

I quickly turned back to the story's beginning, skimming through the first few pages until I found a description of the girl. My heart thumped so loudly that it echoed in my ears as I took in my mother's words.

Finally, I closed the thin binder and leaned back in the chair, staring at the story's title. Could it be... ? I wondered, head reeling in a mixture of excitement, confusion and fear. Does Mom want to make love to me?

"Marcie?" My mother's voice called from the kitchen. I quickly dropped the manuscript onto the desk as if it were on fire, and hurried toward the hallway -- remembering at the last second that I'd forgotten Mom's glasses, dashing back to snatch them up before racing from the room.

"Here." I handed the glasses to her, trying not to betray the storm of emotions that raged through me right then. "I'm going to sit on the back porch for a bit ... looks like there's a nice breeze." I placed a gentle kiss on my mother's cheek before leaving the room.

I stared out into the June evening, hands resting on the oaken rail that enclosed the porch. The soft glimmering of fireflies could now be seen, and the buzzing of crickets filled the air as I stood there quietly, scuffing the floor with the toe of my sandal. All my thoughts were of that strange manuscript, done up on my mother's manual typewriter and annotated here and there in red ink, her scrawly handwriting as familiar to me as my own.

Julie, the young woman in the story, was my age, with short coppery hair like mine, a college student who was visiting home. Too close for coincidence. The longer I thought about it, the more convinced I was that the character had to be a barely disguised version of me. The page Mom had bookmarked was especially exciting -- that first scene of intimacy between mother and daughter.

"Glorious weather," she said softly, suddenly standing next to me.

"Mmmm, yes ... it is," I replied inanely, my mind filled with images of sapphic love, brought to life by my mother's words.

Mom gave me a sweet smile that had my knees trembling. I could see the shape of her body through the summery dress she wore. She still looked luscious at thirty-eight, I had to admit. It occurred to me then there were no lines visible through her clothes -- was she naked underneath?

The thought made me quiver inside ... and it was at that very moment that I knew I wanted her. My own mother.

"Beautiful," she smiled, gazing at me; then gesturing toward the garden, still visible in the fading light. "The flowers."

I knew what she really meant -- and it wasn't the flowers. God, she was flirting with me!

I leaned forward slightly, my upper arms squeezing my chest, leaving the cleavage more pronounced. "Am I one of your flowers, Mom?"

Her eyes dipped for a moment to take in my partially revealed breasts. "You are, angel ... a lovely flower, ready to be plucked by an adoring hand." She blew me a small kiss and returned indoors, giving me one last sidelong glance before vanishing.

I stared after her, my mind already wandering into some very forbidden places. "Damn," I whispered.

I was tempted to slip a hand into my panties and touch myself -- right there, right then. I struggled. I resisted. Finally, I went back inside, looking for her. She was in the kitchen.

"Need any help?" I asked, then leaned against the back of a chair by the kitchen table. I watched Mom's bare legs extending from beneath her skirt, a flowery number that ended a few inches above the knees. My eyes roamed upwards, taking in her shapely hips. I realized for the first time that the women I most desired as lovers had bodies very much like that of my mother, full and curvy. How could I not have seen that before? I wondered.

I imagined the soft, warm delights hidden under Mom's skirt ... and knew that I craved them. Desperately.

"Honey?"

I glanced up, startled from my reverie. "Y-yes?" I asked.

"I said yes, I would like some help, thanks very much. You can set the table."

"Ah. Okay." I shook my head, in a futile attempt to clear it.

I pulled the silverware drawer open. She was standing nearby, close enough to touch. Instead, I inhaled deeply, registering the scent she wore. She glanced at me. "Mmm, you smell so nice," I cooed. "I'd even go so far as to say ... intoxicating."

She looked at me again and smiled. "That's very sweet." Her eyes held mine for a moment longer, then she turned back to the sink.

I picked out knives and forks. "Spoons?" She nodded and I took out two, closed the drawer and leaned in to gently kiss her neck ... every atom of me alive with excitement.

"I was just thinking about how good it is to have you home," she said softly.

She turned and faced me, a hand resting casually on her hip. Her eyes were inviting, her lipsticked mouth even more so. I'd stood in the same place thousands of times growing up, and never had I felt the way I did right then. Mom's fresh breath caressed my cheek. Her lips were inches from mine and ripe for tasting. I closed the distance and let mine brush hers, taking her in my arms. Jesus, she felt good.

"I've been thinking the same thing, Mom. It's always nice to be home with you, but this time there's something extra special." I knew what it was, too, but I wasn't telling. I felt warmed from her, tingling from head to toe with desire. I kissed her again, this time letting it linger.

"That was nice," she cooed as I gently broke away. "You're a very good kisser, honey." She reached out to touch my cheek. "Your lips are so warm ... and sensual. But then, I think that women's mouths are far sexier than men's could ever be."

I was surprised at my mother's candor, even as and a rush of naked lust flowed though me. She'd given me an opening big enough to drive a truck through, and there was no way I'd pass it up.

I took a deep breath, released it. Steady, girl. "Mom ... have you ever made love to a woman?"

She nodded slightly. "Yes ... yes, I have," she murmured, then gazed thoughtfully at me. "What about you, honey? Have you ever... ?"

I reached for her hand. "Yes. Many times."

She smiled. "What was your first time like?"

"It was wonderful. I was a little drunk, but that wasn't why it happened." I stopped and watched her eyes brighten slightly. "Anyhow, I loved the experience. Her kisses were different, better, and the way she went down on me was ... well, you know, right?"

She smiled and nodded. "I do."

"Tell me about when you first did it," I purred.

She ran her fingers through her dark auburn hair. "There was an older student in my Advanced Writing class named Sophie. She stopped by my office one day after my last class and handed me a binder. 'My stories, ' she said. I promised to read them. Then she said, 'Don't show these to anyone else ... I wrote them for you.' She walked away without saying anything else. So I read one. It was about a girl in love with an older woman." She shook her head. "Strange. I'd never given that kind of thing much thought, really, but as the story progressed, I found myself so -- so incredibly turned on. I ... I fingered myself right there at my desk, until I came. I'd never done anything like that before."

"What about the other stories?"

"I hurried home and read them all ... every one had a lesbian theme." She shook her head, an awed light in her eyes. "I couldn't stop touching myself while I was reading. It shocked me. I'd never known that I ... could be that way." She laughed, blushing slightly. "I lost track of how many times I came that night -- five, maybe more. It was so satisfying that I began to wonder if I should, well, try it for myself."

"Being with a woman?" I asked. Mom shyly nodded.

Watching my mother reveal this new side of her sexuality excited me as much as the story she was telling. My legs parted slightly, my skirt riding up far enough to reveal bare thighs.

Mom moved closer, casually placing a warm hand on my hip. It felt wonderful.

"So what happened next? With your student?" I reminded her, eager to hear the rest of the story.

"A few days later, Sophie returned to my office. 'Did you like the stories?' she asked. I told her that I did, very much ... and she closed the door behind her." She paused. "I was afraid, but curious to know more. Sophie sat on the corner of my desk with her skirt hiked far too high. She wore nothing underneath ... things were exposed. 'You're a beautiful woman, ' she said to me, 'and I want to go to bed with you.'"

"God!" I exclaimed. "That's -- that's like something out of a porno flick!"

"I'll take your word for that," she replied dryly, then resumed. "I knew I could lose my job, but I couldn't resist ... I had to give her what she wanted. We went to Sophie's place and made love -- for hours, actually." She sighed happily, lost for a moment in the memory, then blushed. "I ... I've only been with women since then. I suppose that, well, I'm a lesbian now."

I gazed deep into her eyes. "Those stories of hers. All women with other women, you said. Were any of them about ... incest?"

Mom was quiet for a moment, her fingers brushing my side. "Yes," she hesitantly said, "one of them was." She was trembling, ever so slightly.

"Did that story turn you on, too?"

Her eyes were dark pools as she stared at me, finally nodding almost imperceptibly. "Yes, it did ... very much," she whispered. "Why d-do you ask?"

I said nothing in reply, only leaned in to kiss her again. Her lips were soft and sweet ... and I teased them with the tip of my tongue. She jerked back, gaping at me. "Oh, God." Her voice quivered with uncertainty, but she was excited, I knew that much. I closed the distance she'd created and kissed her again, this time with more passion. Her hand curled around my neck as if to hold us together. Her mouth accepted my tongue. I kissed my mother like a lover, feeling more alive than I could ever remember.

She again withdrew, staring at me. "H-honey," she breathed.

"I want to tell you something now," I murmured, stroking her face. "Linda, this one girlfriend of mine ... she told me about the times she shared with her mother -- intimate times. They've been lovers for years."

Mom's eyes burned with immediate curiosity. "Tell me about them," she pleaded.

I allowed my hand to drift slowly down my mother's back, finally resting on her ass. She said nothing, but a tiny smile told me that she enjoyed my touch. "Linda told me that she was only fourteen when she and her mom first made love." I began to gently fondle her bottom, pausing to squeeze a firm cheek.

She gasped in response, as much to the lewd story I was telling as my roaming hand. "Only f-fourteen ... oh, my."

I continued. "They were cuddled up on the sofa one night, watching a movie. They started sort of play kissing ... you know, teasing each other. Linda said that it was totally innocent, mother and daughter getting giggly and having a good time together." My fingers pressed into the cleft between Mom's buttocks, and a tiny whimper escaped her throat. "Only suddenly, and Linda says she still doesn't know how it happened ... she and her mother were kissing for real. Tongues and everything." I leaned in to lick a path up the soft pillar of her neck.

"Oh, God," she whispered. "Oh, baby..."

"She said that they kissed for a long time ... half an hour, maybe more. Then I guess her mom worked up the nerve to touch her -- and it excited Linda so much that she started touching her mother back." I reached for Mom's hand, placing it upon my breast. Her eyes widened with wonder as she began to explore its heft, its softness. "Then Linda's mother asked her if she wanted to know about how two women can love one another ... and Linda said yes." Mom teased my nipple with a fingertip, and I moaned as it stiffened to her touch. "Then they got up from the sofa and climbed the stairs, hand in hand."

Mom dipped her head to kiss my throat, then whispered, "Go on ... tell me the rest."

My head spun. "Well ... there's not much more to tell. They went into the bedroom, I can't remember whose ... they undressed each other, then slipped into bed naked -- and then they made love."

"Did they do -- everything?" gasped Mom as I slipped a hand between our bodies, cupping her vulva through that thin skirt.

"Everything," I breathed, my finger trailing up and down the crease of Mom's cunt. "Her mother knew all about lesbian sex, and she taught Linda very well." I smiled. "I can vouch for that ... she's a real tigress in bed." My mother was fondling both my breasts now, and my cunt was so wet I could feel it drip. "They went down on each other -- her mom showed her what to do -- and then she got Linda up on all fours and licked her asshole."

"Oh," Mom moaned. "Oh, yes."

"After that night," I continued, "they were regular lovers. Linda practically moved into her mother's bedroom, and they fucked almost every night." I paused to kiss Mom's mouth, and her tongue darted between my lips for a lovely instant. "In fact," I purred, "Linda's mom took her virginity not long after that, with a strap-on cock. Her seventeenth birthday present."

"Oh, Marcie ... how did that story make you feel, when Linda told it? Did it -- did it make you hot?"

I wrapped my arms around my mother, crushing our bodies together. "It did, Mom. I couldn't get Linda naked fast enough." My pelvis pressed into hers, grinding our mounds together. "Later, she showed me stories she'd collected from the internet ... all about mothers and daughters being sexual together. It turned me on, Mom. All of it."

"It ... it turns me on, too."

I ceased the motion of my hips, gazing deep into my mother's eyes. "Mom..." I whispered, "I love you."

"Oh, my sweet angel..."

I cut her off by placing a finger over her lips. "I saw the story on your desk ... and I read it. Enough of it, anyhow."

Her eyes widened. "Oh my God ... I can't believe I left that out." It was so sweet -- she was actually blushing.

"I'm glad you did, Mom," was my reply.

Biting her lower lip, she gave me a shy glance. "So ... what did you think?"

I allowed my fingers to caress her face, and she turned her head to kiss them. "I won't tell you how excited it made me ... but I'll bet you can guess." I trailed my hand down my mother's body until it covered her breast. Her heart was racing like sixty, and I could feel a nipple stiffening beneath my palm.

I nuzzled Mom's ear, then trailed my tongue around its edge. "I want to ask you something, Mom ... am I in your story?" I bit lightly at her earlobe. "Hmmmm? Is Julie meant to be me?"

"Oh, oh-h ... oh b-baby, yes," she stammered. "You inspired me ... I -- I've wanted you..."

"Mom ... would you come to bed with me?" I fondled her breasts, scissoring the erect nipples.

Suddenly my mother turned to me and pressed her mouth to mine, kissing me hungrily. I moaned into the kiss, my tongue engaging hers. Then, as quickly as it had begun, it was over ... and Mom was staring at me with beseeching eyes.

"Yes, honey," she gasped. "Yes, my precious daughter ... make love to me, please. Take me, have me -- make me yours."

Closing my eyes, I moved in to claim Mom's mouth, Frenching her as ardently as I've ever kissed a woman. She instantly matched my ardor, her lips sliding moistly against mine. I felt her hand move beneath my skirt, finding the front of my panties before slipping inside them. I tore my mouth from Mom's, crying out as her fingers found my wetness.

"Mmmm ... you're dripping, little lady," she cooed. "I can't wait to taste you."

My own hand darted beneath Mom's skirt, covering her panty-clad cunt. I could feel her own wet heat through the filmy material. Clearly, she was ready for more.

"Come on, honey," she murmured, placing a hand atop mine. "Let's go upstairs."

Hand in hand, we climbed the stairs, grinning like giddy children. Mom led me into her bedroom, switching on a small lamp on the nightstand.

Her soft arms twined round my waist, mine round hers. We gazed at one another for a long moment, both of us suddenly shy, unsure of what to do next.

"I love you, Mom," I whispered.

"Oh ... I adore you, my sweet, sweet child," she replied, her eyes misty ... and then, just like that, our mouths met in an angel-soft kiss. I felt the tip of her tongue graze my lover lip, fanning my lust into a roaring flame. My own tongue came to life, seeking hers as our kiss grew increasingly hungry.

I slid my hands down Mom's back to cradle her ass through her skirt. She moaned into my mouth, then suddenly pulled away. "Let me," she gasped, fumbling at the buttons on her blouse. "I ... oh, God, I need to be naked for you."

I stopped her. "No, Mom. You're a gift, the nicest I've ever had ... and I want to unwrap you myself."

Calming herself, Mom gazed at me dreamily. "Such lovely things you say to me, baby." She placed a soft kiss upon my mouth, then stood silently before me, waiting to be undressed.

I took up where my mother had left off, unfastening her top one button at a time. Sliding the blouse from her ivory shoulders, I reached around her back to undo the catch of her bra. She shrugged it off, baring her breasts for me. I dipped my head to lick at a nipple -- she shivered with delight -- then resumed my work.

Flicking open the clasp of her skirt, I let the navy blue garment fall carelessly to the floor, leaving my mother in French cut panties. My eyes widened in surprise; I'd not known Mom's taste ran to such sexy underthings.

Kneeling at her feet, I pressed my face into Mom's belly, breathing in the sweet scent of her skin, deliciously tinged with a hint of wet pussy. Seeking its source, I nuzzled my way down to the dampened front of her panties, kissing her vaginal cleft through the gauzy material.

"My God," she moaned, "I can't b-believe this is really happening. I -- I've wanted you, dreamed of being with you f-for so long... !"

Grasping the waistband of my mother's panties, I tugged them down to her ankles with a single fluid motion, baring the curly triangle of her pubes. She stepped from the filmy knickers, then stood before me, posing for a moment. Then she laid down on her bed, naked and open, one hand tucked beneath her head.

"Well, honey?" she murmured, shyly enough to send my lust soaring even higher. "Do you like what you see?"

"I do, Mom," I crooned. "You are a beautiful blossom, and I'm going to love you like you've never been loved before."

I quickly undid my dress, letting it fall to the floor, then pulled my panties down and off. Now nude, I crawled onto the bed with her, straddling my mother on all fours, then bent to touch her left nipple with my lips before taking it into my mouth. She moaned as my tongue flicked at the stiffening tip. Her hand brushed my hair from my forehead. "I adore you," she whispered.

I let my hand wander over her body until it rested between Mom's thighs, my finger tracing the opening to her cunt. She welcomed my intrusion, parting her legs even wider for me. She smiled dreamily. "Oh, my ... you're good at this, honey."

I pressed a fingertip inside her. "Oooohhh," she mewed as I went deeper, then began to slide in and out ... and just like that, I was fucking my mother!

My thumb began to press against her clit, and Mom's eyes widened in awe. "Oh Christ, Marcie--"

"Shhh," I pressed my fingers to her lips. "Don't say anything. Just let me please you." I manipulated her clitoris for a bit longer, then leaned down and took it between my lips, flicking the inflamed nubbin with the tip of my tongue.

Surprised, she thrust her hips against my face, the bed shifting beneath us. I buried my face in my mother's soft chestnut curls, lips pressing into the moist, tangy flesh of her cunt in a lover's kiss. The taste was intoxicating. Her thighs framed my face as I penetrated my mother with an exploring tongue.

My head spun at the enormity of what we were doing. An hour ago, Mom and I were innocently passing the time of day, chatting and fixing dinner ... now, I was naked and so was she, and I was fucking her with my mouth, her essence coating my lips and chin. It was forbidden, it was crossing a dangerous line, it was probably even illegal -- and at that moment, it felt like destiny. Believe it or not, what surprised me most of all was that we'd never made love before.

I wanted all of her, hungered and thirsted for this incomparable woman who had given me life. She had always been there for me -- now it was my turn to bestow a precious gift upon her. The gift of sexual ecstasy, freely given out of love.

My hand covered a breast, the other fondled her opening, my lips nursed her clit, and they all made love to my mother; loved her body and soul until she cried out; bucking wildly in the throes of orgasm.

Even after Mom's ecstasy had peaked and waned, I continued to lightly kiss her vulva, keeping her pleasure simmering while she recovered. She enjoyed it, too ... crooning contentedly as I nuzzled her now matted pubes, savoring the thick, luscious taste and aroma of cunt.

Finally she touched my shoulder. "Come here, sweetheart," she gasped. "I ... I need a kiss."

Lifting my head from between her thighs, I rose to my knees, gazing down in awe at my nude mother. Her hair was delightfully askew, her face flushed, body glistening with a fine sheen of perspiration ... yet, somehow, she was even more lovely than ever. Grasping her extended hand, I allowed Mom to draw me down into her arms.

I lay atop my mother's luscious body, between her thighs, loving the warmth and softness of this woman from whose vagina I had emerged so very long ago. Our mouths met, and I moaned out loud when Mom's tongue emerged to trace a circle around my sticky lips, sampling her own sex.

We kissed for a long, lovely while, then Mom gently broke away. "I want to taste you now, baby," she whispered. "Let me lick your pussy."

Giving her a smile and a light kiss on the tip of her nose, I extricated myself from my mother's embrace and rose to my knees, then moved to straddle her face. Her expression was one of wonder as she studied my cunt up close for the first time since my infancy. "So beautiful," she sighed, brushing my sex with her fingertips. Closing her eyes, she takes a deep, luxurious breath, placing her hands on my hips. "Mmmm ... you smell divine, darling -- a libation to the gods."

I was practically shivering with desire and my need for release ... but the college student in me had to ask. "Um ... isn't a libation a drink, Mom?"

My mother looked at me with twinkling eyes. "Yes," she murmured. "Yes, it is." And she drew my cunt down to her waiting mouth, penetrating me with a sharp thrust of the tongue.

A strangled cry broke from my throat as my mother feasted on me, her mouth making wet sounds as she greedily drank deep of my womanly essence. I swayed back and forth atop Mom's face, hugging myself, my body throbbing with the pleasure that only lesbian sweethearts can know.

I basked in the moment, nearly sobbing in joy as my mother's tongue circled the opening of my cunt, her lips buried in the moist, warm flesh. Oh, she had a wicked, wicked mouth, and knew how to use it to drive me wild. But as I lurched headlong toward the blessed oblivion of orgasm, she suddenly drew away to nuzzle my inner thighs.

I moaned, cheated of the release I craved. Damn. ... Mom was teasing me! I felt the warmth of her breath caress my pubis as she slowly licked her way back to my sexual center; then once again, the rollercoaster began its slow ascent.

Mom pleasured me every which way for the longest while -- taking me to within a millimeter of release, then shifting her attention just enough to deny the climax I craved. There are many ways to love a woman's sex with your mouth, and my mother had clearly learned more than a few of these from her previous bedmates.

She pressed open-mouthed kisses into my cunt, occasionally punctuated by quick darting flashes of tongue ... bathed the surface of my vulva with long, slow licks that always ended with a brief flick at the clitoris ... nibbled playfully at my labia, tugging at the sensitive flesh.

Then, just when I was on the verge of frustrated tears, Mom's lips enveloped my clit, sucking delicately at the inflamed tip ... and my entire body arched up from the bed as an enormous orgasm hit me like a fist, cartoon stars cascading behind my eyes.

I'd never come so explosively. Rivulets of fire seemed to course through every inch of me as I bucked and rocked in a mad frenzy, tightly clutching my breasts. I wanted to scream, but was incapable of sound.

To this day, I wonder: was my pleasure so intense because of Mom's skill as a lover? Or was it because the forbidden aspect of our fucking added to my excitement? Actually, I like to think of a third possibility ... that the blood bond between my mother and I meant that she knew my body as well as her own, sensing instinctively what her baby girl needed.

I found myself curled upon my side, not quite knowing how I'd gotten there. Dazed, utterly spent, I felt the heat of Mom's body against mine ... and my eyes slowly opened, then focused on her smiling face.

"Oh, Marcie," she sighed, "that was -- incredible. I've imagined b-being with you for a long time, you know ... but my fantasies didn't come close to the real thing." She brushed my damp forehead with her lips. "That wasn't sex, honey -- it was poetry."

I rolled my eyes. "Mom, please ... shut up and kiss me."

With a giggle, she closed the gap between us to do just that.

We lay together in blissful silence for a long while, our mouths playing sweet, childish games together. The lustful urgency that had claimed us earlier had waned, replaced by a warm, contented glow. Our tongues entwined languidly as Mom and I explored just about every possible way that two women could kiss.
