Chapter 22

When Nathan and Kathy were informed by Allison that he had most likely impregnated Kathy, but had definitely made Hannah with child, Nathan did not know quite what to think. Allison was more concerned with Kathy's reaction, however.

It did not seem to bother Kathy that she, herself might be pregnant. She was not too happy about Hannah's announced pregnancy. Allison expected that, but after talking with her, was confused about why she was upset. It wasn't because of Hannah's age since Kathy had Hannah around the same age. It wasn't because it was incest since that never was a concern. To Kathy, it was a matter of status. This changed Kathy's relationship with her daughter to something a lot more complicated.

Did this make Hannah another wife? Was Kathy supposed to share her own situation with Hannah now? Did this mean she had no say in when Hannah had access to Nathan? Allison listened in stunned silence as Kathy expressed her concerns about Hannah's pregnancy. It took some effort on Allison's part to not get angry. She had to keep remembering that her daughter had lived under a different set of values.

For Allison, it was an entirely different set of concerns. She simply wanted to keep a lid on everything--to keep the outside world from finding out and to avoid disgrace and, possibly, jail. She was so happy to have found her children alive, but life ever since had become a lot more bizarre. Knowing what she knows now, maybe it would have been prudent to get Nathan one of those vasectomies. She should still do it. There was Emmeline to consider, too.

When Allison explained Amy's plan to Kathy about having both babies be Kathy's, her daughter perked up.

"Ya mean, pretend they're both mine?"

"Yes, Kathy. No matter that you were young when you had Hannah, in this world Hannah is too young to be a mother. We can just say you had twins. In this society, Hannah can't even be legally married, let alone have a child."

The more Allison spoke, the more pleased Kathy was with the plan.

"Are ya gonna help me 'splain all this ta Hannah, Mommy? An', that she's still my daughter even though Nathan got 'er with a baby?"

Seeing that Kathy was more concerned about Hannah thinking she was now Nathan's second wife than she was about her having a baby, Allison agreed that she would make that clear to the girl. If Kathy's fears were true, then this was not going to be easy. She remembered how Kathy had steamed about her own relationship with him back on the island.

Later, Kathy and Nathan discussed the situation in their bedroom. She did not express anger that he had gotten Hannah pregnant. That was bound to happen, although they had all thought the pills were to keep that from coming to pass in their new world. Nathan confessed that he and Hannah had played a pretend game of husband and wife on their camping trip, but he said he did it only to placate her desire to play house. Kathy seemed to understand that it was only a game. Now, they had to keep it from turning into reality.

"Ya know, Kathy, Hannah's probably not gonna like ya takin' her baby from 'er. Maybe ya oughta, at least, let 'er feed it. Ya may not have enough milk ta feed both of 'em."

"Nathan, we'll take care a that when the time comes. Mommy says we also gotta keep Hannah from bein' seen by anybody when she swells up. She's talkin' 'bout ya buildin' a hut up by the waterfall ta hide during the last couple a months when she gets really big. She says the cleanin' people an' others are bound ta see 'er otherwise."

None of this sounded implausible to either of them given their experience on the island. He and Jacob would begin the building project right away. It would, in fact, be a cabin with comfortable accommodations and ostensibly serve as the family's 'house' in the woods. They would haul lumber and equipment up there using a small tractor used in odd jobs on the estate.

Kathy had informed Nathan that somebody called Midwife would be looking after both her and Hannah. There were so many things to remember like Hannah was supposed to be 17 years old, and the father of the baby was some boy back in the islands who would never be on the scene. It was all so confusing and exciting at the same time.

Allison and Amy decided they could not employ a tutor until after the babies were delivered. Hence, they both continued to conduct their lessons with cooking classes by Soroya and instruction in the use of modern tools and equipment by Jacob. Nathan and the girls were even learning how to drive the car and the tractor. Unless they were in the middle of an important aspect of instruction which needed to be completed, there was no set structure to how much time was devoted to their schooling. As a result, someone might say they were hot, and all would jump in the pool with no more thought about the lesson.

The hardest thing Allison had to do was broach the pregnancy situation with Soroya and Jacob. Without their cooperation and confidentiality, all the efforts to keep it a secret would be nil. She was encouraged by the fact that Jacob had become accustomed to being naked when giving his lessons. That coming home party had broken the ice, and he was not embarrassed any longer. As for Soroya, she was more receptive to this new lifestyle from the beginning. Perhaps they would be understanding about the latest abnormality as well.

Jacob and Nathan spent two or three days a week working on the cabin which was close to being finished. It had a kitchen and two other rooms which would accommodate two persons full time, but with room to house the whole family on a temporary basis. They had to dig and build facilities for an outhouse. The waterfall was to serve as the bath. They even ran a pipe from the pool to the kitchen for drinking and cooking water. It turned out to be a grander scheme than planned, but Allison kept asking for more and more changes. Since money was no object, they could do it. It did test the skills and patience of Jacob who thought it was just a cabin for recreation.

Emmeline and Hannah were kept busy driving the tractor back and forth to bring the building materials and furniture up to the cabin. By this time, Allison and Kathy had spoken to them. The girls were certain of only one thing: It was to remain a secret. Hannah was not happy about the plan to designate Kathy as mother of both babies. When Hannah first learned she was carrying a baby inside her, she thought that would seal her status as Nathan's wife for sure. Now, it was hard to accept that she was still being treated as a child daughter (for her own good, they kept saying), but in her heart, she knew this event would make a difference in her status. She had already become Emmeline's heroine.

At night, in their bedroom, Emmeline wanted to feel Hannah's stomach which had barely begun to swell. The most dramatic evidence was the growth of Hannah's boobies. She let Emmeline suck on her titties, saying it was good practice for when the baby nursed. Kathy's body was changing as well. There were both at five months.

When, finally, Allison approached Soroya and Jacob, it was with great trepidation since their cooperation and understanding was key to all of this. She had begun by asking if they were both satisfied with their employment, and if they could be discreet about some news she was about to reveal.

Further, she assured them that whether they stayed or wished to depart, there would be a good bonus and letters of recommendation for them.

They were somewhat taken aback with Allison's serious approach as if what she were about to tell them had to be of a grave nature since what they already knew was heavy enough, i.e., brother and sister married with kids. When informed of what had happened, they were disturbed and for the first time thought about how young Hannah was as Allison said that the midwife would be told she was 17. Like the rest of the family, they did not seem surprised that Kathy was having a baby since they already thought of them as husband and wife. The news about Hannah changed their perception of this happy nudist family.

Allison took pains to explain how life on the island led to this, that it would have happened there eventually if not sooner, that she and Amy had been trying to educate them on right and wrong. Lifestyle had, however, been far stronger than new concepts. To Soroya, the episode of Nathan and Kathy had seemed romantic and strangely exciting, and Jacob was familiar with Hawaiian queens marrying a brother. Hannah, however, was a new wrinkle.

Actually, even though he could never have done that with his own daughter, when he thought about how beautiful and sexy Hannah was, he wondered if he could have withstood the enticement of her charms. If he forgot her age, he could easily have succumbed, especially since she was always nude. He had more than a modicum of sympathy for Nathan (gosh, they were alone for a week in the woods once).

Soroya thought about how she was attracted to Nathan, and how she still wanted a massage. Now she was certain about the sounds coming from some of the women--they were those of passion. She still wanted to experience a massage from him. She realized her lascivious thoughts were making her blush, turning her brown skin to pink. Allison simply thought she was embarrassed by her news.

"I hope you both understand that Amy and I are just trying to make the best of a situation that is out of our control; no matter what you decide, we hope you will see your way clear to keep this quiet."

Jacob spoke up, "Allison, almost nobody knows anything about you all up here. I suppose there might be some gossip generated by the gardeners and cleaning staff, but that can't amount to anything serious. Everybody's wearing clothes when they are here, and I doubt they even know who or how many people live here. They know you have a private airstrip, and can fly in and out without anyone knowing."

"Yes," added Soroya, "and I have been in town with Jacob occasionally when people have asked me about who all lives here. I just say you're all a family from far away who likes their privacy. I wouldn't even think poor Hannah would have to go up to that cabin to have her baby. I know you've gone to a lot of trouble, but Jacob and I will certainly do whatever we can to help you."

Allison took this for their decision to cooperate. She was pleased. Maybe she had become somewhat paranoid with all her preparations for a secluded birthing for Hannah. That would probably cause suspicions with the midwife. Also, if there were any complications, they would be better prepared to handle them here at the mansion. She was glad there was another source of ideas besides herself and Amy. Her panic about the situation had kept her mind on secrecy to the exclusion of the well being of her loved ones.

She also had to reconsider her son as simply the cause of all this. He was only doing what everybody wanted. He must have feelings about everything as well. It was wrong for her to think of him as just an available cock. He loved his family probably more than she did. Nathan wouldn't do anyting intentionally to hurt them. So, why had she not consulted the one person who had more at risk than anyone else? She had to keep telling herself that he was more than a savage, and had feelings which she had ignored. She would talk to him in private. After all, she had raised him to almost 13 before he was lost at sea. He had to have had something remaining from those prior years.

"Yes, Mommy, I feel bad about what's happened ta Hannah. She's my little girl, an' I love her a lot. I only told this to Kathy, but she wants ta be a big girl like her mommy. In the only way she knows how, she wants ta be a wife too."

Allison was slowly understanding Hannah's motives. She was experiencing what all teenagers had gone through at puberty. Maybe she was doing it a little earlier than most, but her life on the island was certainly not that of a typical teenager. Her high intelligence and sexual experimentation had accelerated her development. Her body and stature were not those of a young teenager either since she could pass for 18 or older.

Maybe, thought Allison, she could just tell the midwife that her granddaughter had been promiscuous, and the hadn't a clue to the identity of the father. He would be unknown, and the baby would simply be another Sanderson. Kathy was another matter. She couldn't have both a promiscuous daughter and granddaughter. Kathy's husband would have to have visited the mansion since their arrival.

It was Amy who came up with the solution provided Allison's influence could carry it off: Change Kathy's last name to Jorgenson, Allison's maiden name. It would make Kathy a cousin of Nathan, but that was acceptable in many states. Why the fuck didn't they think of that in the first place? Jorgenson was already on her birth certificate. This required many long distance calls and a good deal of money, but it was accomplished with all delivered to the mansion in a matter of weeks. It also involved even more effort to change the birth certificates which now reflected Nathan as the father of the girls. It all seem so simple now, but the pregnancies had required some rethinking.

So many hurdles had been jumped successfully, but the biggest remained to convince the midwife to register Hannah's baby as Kathy's. It would make everybody legitimate and unrelated so to speak.

Jacob and Soroya were allowed to participate in these discussions since they knew the midwife. Even though the midwife would sympathize and cooperate, Allison intended to compensate her handsomely. Of course, she would be committing an illegal act in certifying Hannah's baby as Kathy's. The woman thought it an understandable act in wanting to avoid family disgrace. In fact, the midwife thought it very noble of Kathy to do this for her daughter who had not thought about the consequences of her sexual behavior with strange boys. The girl, Hannah, certainly looked old enough to know better.

On the day of delivery, Hannah's baby was born first. It was a boy. Kathy was in one bedroom and Hannah was in another. The midwife was running between them. She had the whole family helping. Kathy's was next and it was a girl. There were no complications with both appearing to be big, blond, blue eyed masterpieces of nature. The midwife's first impression was that there would absolutely not be a problem passing them off as twins. Whoever was the boy who impregnated Hannah must have looked a lot like Kathy's husband, or else those Nordic genes were predominate in the Sanderson family.

The deception was carried off with aplomb by all concerned, and Allison was proud of them. It had been 11 years since Kathy had had her last child, but she went through minimum pain. Hannah had more problems. They could hear her screaming throughout the house as she went through labor. All thoughts of the status of being a wife and a mommy disappeared. She wanted her own mommy. Allison had to substitute, and did a creditable job comforting them both. She swore all this incest shit had to cease even though it meant she had to desist as well.

When it was all over and the two mothers were resting, Allison spoke with Amy.

"Amy, it has been a busy day. You, I, and Soroya are going to be even more busy taking care of the girls and babies for awhile. Do you still think you like your new job as well as the old one? It's a pisser, isn't it?"

"All I can say, Allison, is that you've got two beautiful new grandchildren, and I don't mind playing nurse maid at all. Things will settle down; it'll get better. But, you don't seem all that happy."

"You're right. The new ones appear to be healthy, and bigger than I can remember babies being, but I'm in my usual stew about 'what next?' I don't mind having more grandchildren, and I'm happy everybody is all right. It's the idea that it's getting out of hand. Nathan can't keep knocking all his women up!"

"Well," Amy answered in jest, "he sure can't knock up you or me, and I don't think those two are going to be in the mood for awhile, and Emmeline hasn't started her periods yet."

"No, I'm not talking about that. Oh hell, yes, I am talking about that. We've got to get all this fucking stopped!"

Amy looked at Allison in surprise. She had already figured there would be a hiatus with Kathy and Hannah which left Nathan more free time with her and Allison. She even assumed Emmeline had figured that one out.

"Now tell me, Allison, just how do you propse to stop a train, not that I don't understand your concern about the future?"

"You and I have got to show some restraint, and insist that this family start living by the rules," Allison said even as she sensed the futility of it all.

"What do we do about Emmeline? How are you going to restrain her? She thinks all of this is like continuous Christmas. Two babies at the same time has her ecstatic running between the two rooms wanting to hold her new brother and sister. She knows damn well how they originated, and is probably planning on how to join the crowd. Whatever progress we made is probably down the tubes."

Allison, being frustrated with Amy's logic, said, "Fuck that progress! As long as she thinks we condone everything by our fucking Nathan too, she can't be blamed for such behavior. No, if we can't stop it, I can at least take Nathan to Honolulu for a vasectomy." Allison was mad at herself for allowing herself to, once again, resume thinking about sex with Nathan. Amy wasn't helping.

"That wouldn't make him impotent, would it?" Amy asked since the idea did not bode well for her own future as she thought about the invasive aspect of operating on a person's genitals.

"Of course not. From what I hear, it's a lot less invasive than a circumcision, and we did that with Nathan. He just wouldn't be able to make babies anymore."

Nathan was concerned about his two new mommies. It was apparent that Hannah needed to nurse the baby boy if only to relieve the pressure from her breasts which were now the size of canteloupes. However, they exchanged the babies with the mommies so they each could see the other. No names had yet been selected. The midwife would return for that information as well as to check on their progress.

Nathan suggested that Hannah come into Kathy and his bed while they nursed their babies and they could each hold the other's and get better acquainted. Each day, it appeared that the two babies looked more like identical twins. They even swapped babies for nursing. The midwife had advised that the sooner Kathy could take them both, the better since she was worried about Hannah bonding too much with her own. Instead, it became a necessity to keep both babies fed since one or the other would run out of milk requiring both mothers' breasts.

Names were being bandied about by the whole family, and it was decided that Hannah would have the final decision on the boy's name, and that Kathy would confirm the one for the girl. Allison and Amy were only to give suggestions. Thus, it was that the two new Sandersons were Erik and Erika.

Emmeline insisted on helping with the twins. She was fascinated with watching her sister and mother nurse the babies. When she would hold them, she tried to get them to nurse on her own developing titties which had burgeoned forth on her 5' 5" frame. At about the age of 11, she appeared to be 14 or 15 at least. Amy was personally giving her birth control pills each day at the insistence of Allison who feared the onset of another disaster. She was doing the same with Hannah and Kathy.

Despite all of Allison's efforts to the contrary, it appeared that Hannah had practically moved into her mother's bedroom since they now nursed Erik and Erika together, and seldom left during the day. Once, she had heard one of the babies crying and went into Kathy's bedroom to check on her only to find Hannah holding Erika and Kathy nursing Erik with Nathan between them with an arm around each mother.

All Nathan's talk about a pretend wife came back to Allison when she also saw that Hannah had a firm grasp on Nathan's erect penis with her mother obviously aware of it. She just turned around and went out of the room to find Amy.

"You won't believe what I just saw, Amy!" Allison exclaimed with obvious anger. She described the scene as Amy listened politely.

With a mischievous grin, Amy responded with, "Allison, now don't get mad, but I've finally figured out what's bothering you about all this. I think Kathy has just accepted the facts. Hannah really has become his second wife, and that pisses you off 'cause it's like stealing his affections from you. Kathy accepted you as Nathan's lover because she saw you weren't trying to take him away from her. Now, you are reacting like Kathy did initially because you think poor Hannah has replaced you. I may be wrong, but Hannah having that baby has gotten you all out of sorts."

"Amy! I'm surprised at you. Why, I'm just trying to get them all to act like a normal family. Why, it's--dammit, it's incest!"

"Yes, and you've been a willing participant just like I am. Just think about it a while, Allison. Nothing has really changed except your Hannah is a big girl now. I think Kathy has accepted it and god knows she's willing to share. Our appearance on the scene has overturned their lives. They were a happy clan, but their lifestyle was different because--well, because it just was. Hannah, and even Emmeline would have gotten pregnant eventually, and you wouldn't have even known about it. Now, we have to deal with it, and I think you've managed pretty well under the circumstances."

Once again, the two embraced in friendship and sisterhood of dilemma--one not entirely of their own making. Allison knew that Amy was making sense, but it was hard for her to sort out her own true feelings.

During the many hours that Kathy and Hannah spent together with their babies, they had developed a kinship of mutual experience. Kathy told Hannah in detail about how she and Nathan had come together on the island, about how she had come to love him more than just a brother. Their discussion picked up steam when it involved Hannah's arrival, and how she would try to get involved during their love making. They were finally comparing notes on what turned Nathan on, or how they could use their pussies to get him to do anything. Although Kathy still viewed Hannah as her daughter, they had developed a sense of being sisters as well.

As far as Hannah was concerned, she considered this new relationship with her mother as tantamount to being Nathan's second wife, and if not quite to that extent, they were sisters sharing the same man.

They had bought two cribs for the babies who now stayed in Nathan and Kathy's bedroom. That was what was expected, but now it seemed that Hannah was sleeping with Nathan and Kathy like a ménage à trois. Allison reflected on what Amy had unloaded on her. Was she really being a vindictive bitch who was simply upset by being replaced by an upstart girl? Even if Amy was right about her own feelings, it didn't appear to Allison that the girl should be sleeping with them.

The school lesson sessions had been curtailed for about two months after the babies were born. Nathan had resumed the massages in the meantime, although his mother had not participated. During a session with Nathan, Amy spoke to him frankly about how despondent Allison was.

"Nathan, haven't you noticed how your mother has withdrawn from intimacy with you?"

"Yeah, she seems kinda sad sometimes, but she sure likes the babies. They make 'er happy, I think. Why? How come ya bring that up?"

"Well, I don't need to tell you that we all have kept you pretty busy," Amy said as she stroked his penis back to life after he had lubricated her insides. "Your mother loves you a lot, and I think she thinks she's taken second place to Hannah. We all know you're sleeping with both her and Kathy in your bed. She knows Kathy is your wife, but the baby thing has sort of made her nuts. You know, you giving Hannah a baby. Why don't you take Allison, your mother, up to the cabin for a couple of days and let her know you care for her like you always have?"

"Ya mean leave Kathy an' Hannah for that long? What'll they think?"

"Don't worry. I'll take care of that. Besides, they've become like a couple of cronies now. Haven't you seen them giggling and hugging (Amy figured they had been joking or comparing stories about Nathan)?"

"Well, if ya think that's the thing ta do, I'd be happy ta take Mommy up there just by ourselves. I just don't want Kathy or Hannah gettin' upset 'bout it."

When Emmeline heard about the planned trip to the cabin by her daddy and grandmommy, she was perturbed that she wasn't also invited, but she knew she would be having fun with her sister and mommy and the twins.

Emmeline had even asked and been given permission to suck milk from both her mommy and sister. However, they barely had enough for the voracious babies, so this was always a brief affair.

After Nathan and his mother had set off for the cabin, everybody commented on how Allison's spirits seemed to be uplifted. Soroya said it would be a nice break since she had been so busy looking out after everybody else. Because Kathy had Hannah's constant companionship, she was not perturbed about Nathan's absence for a few days. Besides, both she and Hannah had their hands full looking out after the twins even with help from everyone else.

One evening after Emmeline had visited her sister and mommy during a joint nursing session, she asked if she could taste them both to see if there was a difference. Emmeline would suck for a while on Hannah, then on Kathy. She thought it was the same, but was not sure.

"I don't remember what it tastes like," said Hannah now becoming curious.

"I don't either," commented Kathy. "You wanna taste mine, an' let me taste yours?"

They then took turns finding out how mothers' milk tasted.

Then Kathy wrinkled her brow, and said, "Well, I know what yours tastes like now, but I don't know about mine. Emmeline, are you sure they don't taste different?"

"Nah, I don't know fer sure, but you two could still find out. Hannah, why don't ya get a mouthful and put it in Mommy's mouth, an', Mommy, ya can do the same?"

"Yuck," said Hannah.

"What's the difference in that an' gettin' a mouthful of Daddy's stuff, Miss Cocoanut?"

"She's right, Mommy. Wanna try it?"

Emmeline watched the exchange, proud of her suggestion. They had to try it several times before they could decide. It was very close, to the point where they determined it the same. Finally, they shooed Emmeline out, saying it was time to let the twins have what remained.

For some reason, Emmeline felt unsatisfied. She wanted to continue sucking and checked to see if Aunt Amy was still awake.

"Yes, Emmeline," Amy said, rolling over to face her in her bed, "what do you need?"

"Uh, Aunt Amy, we been sucking milk from Hannah's and Mommy's titties, and they wouldn't let me do it anymore. Uh, would ya mind if I jus' did it with you for a little while. I can't go ta sleep."

Amy lifted up her arms to indicate that Emmeline could crawl into bed with her. "Yeah, Sweetie, go ahead. I'm half asleep, so whatever takes your fancy."

With Emmeline sucking away on a nipple while practically on top of her body, Amy was soon awake. Emmeline hadn't done this with her since they were back on the island, or was it Manila? Whatever, the girl had grown a lot now. In the near darkness, this no longer felt like she was nursing a child, but felt very sexy. Amy put her arms around Emmeline after the girl shifted her mouth to her other nipple. She could feel the girl's pudenda rubbing against her own. Amy reached down and massaged Emmeline's buttocks while meshing their bald pussies. Nearing an orgasm, Amy could not believe what she was doing, but continued to do it.

Nathan and Allison had arrived at the cabin. Jacob had already stocked the larder. Nathan checked on things still being in order. They had a gas stove with a butane tank, so there was little to do other than make the bed, and then relax. At first, Allison didn't know what to say, and on the way up it had been desultory conversation such as the weather, the twins, the scenery, etc. She knew they had to talk in a more serious vein.

Nathan had been told by Aunt amy to be nice to his mother and make her feel good. He was aware of her aloofness, and from his little world and experience with her since their rescue, he figured that meant lots of physical attention. He had no intention of denying her anything, but didn't quite know where to begin himself. They had two or three days, so there didn't seem to be any hurry.

They decided to swim in the waterfall pool and lay in the Sun. He was so sweet to her that she couldn't help remarking about what good manners he had had as a boy. Then she began talking about their life as a family both before and after Kathy was born. This was extremely interesting to Nathan who asked many questions all of which delighted and encouraged her to talk even more. It was fun. Only family would ever be stimulated by the stories she was telling. However, other than seeing her son's absorption in the silliest things, she began to tire of listening to herself talk.
