The Twelve Tables Ch. 19

"Dante," Peri said and put a hand on his arm as he stepped past her. He turned to face her, and she reached a hand up to his cheek. "I love you too," she said quietly. He looked at her for a moment and placed his hand over hers on his cheek. "Be patient with Josh, he loves you too." She added feeling awkward under the look in his eyes.

Peri had been in the meeting with Papa and his brothers for just under an hour and when she came out she returned to the nursery to hug her children but they were all sleeping so peacefully that she didn't want to disturb them. She sat in the rocker and closed her eyes thinking about what she had just agreed to.

"How can I possibly live with and love two men?" She asked herself. She and Josh loved so intensely she couldn't imagine letting anyone else into their bubble of happiness. She considered Dante and how much of their lives he already shared. The only thing they didn't share with him was their intimacy. If Vincenzo knew as much as he said he did then, he must have known that. They all must have known that.

Charles had said that Dante spent time with a Kept, who looked like her, and she felt a pang of jealousy wondering if he shared her with Josh in the same way that Josh would soon be expected to share her affections. She tried to kid herself that she couldn't do it, but the memories of her dreams betrayed her. In each dream, she had woken when Josh appeared and seemed happy to find them together. She considered that fact and wondered if her subconscious could feel the pull of what was happening in the greater family dynamics.

She closed her eyes letting the memory of that dream play out in her mind and imagining Josh approving of her adultery. She drifted off to sleep in the quiet room after weeks of broken sleep her mind morphing the dream to a different scene.

There was a knock on the door as she knelt at Dante's feet sucking his cock. She heard him call out to whoever it was to come in and she froze in the act of what she was doing. He placed his hand on her head and pushed her mouth down onto his cock again, groaning as she swallowed him deeply. She heard the door at the other end of the large room open and close, and she froze again.

"Keep sucking," he growled putting pressure again on the hand on her head before calling out, "About time you got here, I'm glad your home." Dante said in a voice thick with arousal, and Peri heard Josh's voice answer him.

"Fuck, do you ever stop?" Josh chuckled, and Peri could hear the heavy fall of shoes followed by the squelch of his body sinking into the leather of a chair.

"Not when it's this good," Dante groaned again as she took him to the balls sucking hard. "Oh, yeah, she loves it too, such a good little cocksucker" he held her head down for long seconds before pulling her back up and cumming loudly, spurting ribbons of cum onto her tongue, which she obediently swallowed. Allowing her a few moments to drain and clean him as he regained his control he finally pulled her up to the couch with him and turned her to face Josh.

"You kept her to yourself for so long, I'm just catching up," he chuckled.

"Do you blame me?" Josh shrugged. "Don't suppose you want to give my wife back now?"

"Our wife," Dante corrected him draping an arm over Peri's neck and shoulder to play with her breast. "What do you want her for?" Dante asked dubiously.

"A head job like the one I was just witnessed sounds about right," he smirked.

"Sure why not," he shrugged looking at Peri. "Off you go then," he gave her a little push from the couch and watched as she knelt before Josh, who had stood to kick off his pants.

Peri's mouth tilted up at the corners in a half-smile as she took in the cock she knew so well and loved. She parted her lips slightly leaning forward to kiss the tip expecting him to sit again. Instead, he remained standing and gathered her hair into one hand holding it up from her face and tilting her head back slightly.

"Keep your eyes on mine the whole time," he growled at her.

She nodded slightly within the firm hold he had on her hair recognising the tone in his voice and quietly murmured, "Yes, Mine."

"Mine" he growled and placed the tip of his cock between her lips and began moving in and out slowly filling her mouth as she gazed up at him. Peri knew he liked the complete control and willingly gave herself over to his desires as she closed her lips into a tight ring around his cock. He bucked his hips pushing further and making her gag slightly. She noted a slight smile touching his eyes as she looked up at him. "Open," he commanded, and she let her jaw drop, opening her mouth wide for him as he drove deeply into her throat making her gag once again.

"Can't blame you for enjoying this so often," Josh murmured thrusting his hips again.

"I'm a lucky man to share her with you," Dante grinned back enjoying watching Peri take the punishment Josh was giving her and feeling his cock begin to grow again at the sight before him.

Peri began to drool as she relaxed and gulped around the cock that buffeted at her throat. Her eyes began to mist, and tears ran to her cheeks, but she did not strain against the position he held her in as he fucked her face. Instead, she fixed her eyes on his as she blinked more tears to her cheeks. Her tears seemed to arouse him even further, and he yanked her head back further by the hair and stepping forward slightly lowered his ball sac into her wide open mouth.

Fluttering her tongue and sucking at the pebbled skin as best, she could in her position she took deep breaths through her nose knowing this was only a small respite. She could feel her arousal build and the wetness of her cunt start to flow to her thighs. The ball sac was eventually pulled away, and the cock was returned to her mouth with more force. Josh held her head with both hands and began fucking in earnest uncaring, it seemed, of her lack of breath but making sure now and then not to penetrate her throat as she sucked in air through her nose.

Josh became lost in Peri's teary eyes and the power she gave him. He felt the pleasure she afforded not only his cock but his need for control, groaning deeply before pulling out and spurting cum across her lips and tongue and then driving back into her warm wet mouth again. Finally satiated he collapsed back onto the chair.

Peri was so hot and needy for her own release as she was pulled up into his lap. She looked up at him with teary eyes her need evident. "Please," she whispered, "Fuck me, I'm so hot."

"I don't need to fuck you to make you cum," he growled and pinched a nipple in each hand, twisting them until she whimpered loudly. "But seeing as you asked so nicely," he flipped open the chest that appeared beside the chair. He withdrew the tri-clamp set watching as Peri saw it and immediately spread her legs and laced her fingers behind her head in a display pose as he had taught her so long ago at the chalet.

He glanced up, and Dante nodded appreciatively. Peri was panting heavily and mewling loudly when he was finally satisfied by the positioning of the clamps. He picked her up and placed her on her hands and knees on the low coffee table that had suddenly appeared between the two men

"Well if you're not up to it yet, I am," Dante growled and stood behind her. He entered her roughly making the clamps swing and Peri cry out both in pain and pleasure. He slowly withdrew from her and then slammed in again growling, "Is this what you need, little slut," he rammed into her with force.

"Yes, please," she cried out both humiliated and aroused by the names he called her. She grimaced at the pain of the clamps as well as the words that fell from her mouth. Then Josh was there standing before her with a half hard cock. He grabbed her hair and guided her mouth to his cock again as Dante continued to slam into her. Her whimpers turned to gurgles as his cock rapidly grew in her mouth, her head and body moving because of the rough fucking she was receiving as Josh just stood staring down into her face.

"Prepare yourself, slut," Dante growled as he leant over her body and tugged on the chain making her squeal around the cock in her mouth. As the clamp came loose from her clit, she screamed, and Josh drove into her throat savouring the vibrations her pain gave her voice. Peri's eyes rolled in her head, and she jerked spasmodically as she came hard between the two men. The men continued to fuck her hard as she continued to cum giving her little respite as Dante pulled the clamps from her nipples making her scream around the cock in her throat again.

Her eyes fluttered open as her body shook roughly.

"Peri?" Bridgette's voice sounded worried as she shook her shoulders. "You're having a bad dream, you're waking up the babies," she whispered trying to get her to wake up properly. "Peri? Wake up."

"Oh Gosh, I'm so sorry," Peri whispered back, looking around the nursery and seeing the Cruze squirm restlessly. "I didn't mean to fall asleep. I'll just freshen up a bit and be back in a little while. She got up feeling flushed and embarrassed and hurried from the room.

Walking through her room to the bathroom, she splashed cool water on her face. "What is wrong with you?" She asked her reflection. "Have you become so immune to how bizarre this family is?" She was happy for Josh, but she worried. She had thought the new table would be the domain of Ben and while Josh would be involved it would more like Andreas and Marisol, living on the winery and living their own lives.

"Andreas had obviously fooled her about his involvement in family business and she guessed that was how it was supposed to be. There was one public face of the table, one official leader and for anyone who never looked closely at or questioned that there was a table of twelve that would be enough. She knew for certain now though that the power was shared and not only did they have great influence over their families but as a society across several continents they held influence in world markets and politics. It was like she had been wearing blinders this whole time and suddenly she could see.

She walked purposefully to the library and turned on her computer plugging in her hard drive. She wasn't exactly sure what she was looking for but she knew when the Donati's had intermarried with the Medici's a powerful alliance had been formed. She realised now that there was probably more happening there than she had allowed herself to see or take in.

She hadn't noted much about the alliance, but she had tagged the small amount of information with the names of the books she had been using at the time. She scribbled them on a piece of notepaper intending on asking Dante to retrieve them from the Athenaeum in the city.

She had been so engrossed in what she was doing she hadn't realised how long she had been sitting there until she reached for another notebook and her arms brushed over her now wet bra and blouse. Guiltily she packed up her things and returned to the nursery but her mind stayed on all of the information she had learned today and how it had changed her view of this family's place not only amongst the twelve table here but those throughout the world.
