Territory unknown

[cgraven]

My tongue tentatively slips out to moisten her lips , then our tongues touch shyly she responds , and takes the first tentative steps, of that age old lover’s dance. I follow her hesitant steps, her mouth so sweet , I am gentle slowly taking in the lead and anticipation of what is next slowly take its place and Silky quivers, with her ebbing orgasm and that anticipation.

My hand lazily cups her young breast, slowly massaging it my thumb tenderly, gently massaging Silky’s nipple bring it to life, then my cock slips into her silken vagina.

 

[Silk Parlor]

As we kiss, My tongue search his out as they dance, tasting the musk of my own. Moaning deep with in his mouth as I run my hand up his back, enjoying the feel of him apon me. Softly moving to his ear nibbling, as I feel him as he slide with in me.
Feeling the heat of passion the desire of wanting to be fill. Lifting myself to take him deeper with in.

Looking deep with in his eyes as I lift my hips to meet his every thrust. Whispering in his ear.

Ed oh yes give it all to me please...

 

[cgraven]

Ed oh yes give it all to me please...

Our lips join as I driver deeper and deeper into Silky, ther is a tender wild passion in our love. As if there would be no tomorrow, only today only this moment. We where wild, our gasps , sighs, moans and grunts music to my ears.

Finally I scream in climax as I collapses by Silky’s side.

 

[Silk Parlor]

As Ed thrusts deeper in side me Feeling the electricity run sensationally threw out my body, Lifting my hips to his every thrust as ecstasy over comes me. The vibrant feeling explodes in my mind as the wall of my vagina pulsates about his harden cock. Hearing his moans and gasps of breath, heightening the sensation our orgasm. As he moves off me to my side. I look to him smiling pleasantly. My hand caressing the side of his face. Not knowing what words to speak, after the wonderful bliss he has given me.
Laying there I watch as he falls to sleep. Easily I move from beside him reaching down I kiss his forehead softly. Walking to the door. Looking back once more then off to my room. Getting my cloth's for my bath. I walk down stairs to the kitchen, placing 3 pot's of water to boil.
When they are done I walk back to my room managing to carry all three. Feel my tub with 2 I climb in washing from head to toe. I climb out and dress.
Walking Out the bedroom door I make my way to the stables. I gather Princes riding gear, as he nudges me. Reaching in my pocket pulling sugar cubs, placing my hand under his nose. as he eats them. I pat his neck kissing his long nose. After he is ready to go I mount him and ride out the stable doors.
Just need time away to think of all that has gone on the last two day.
Stop By Mrs. Lee's to let her know to Check on Chief Jones while I was a way the next couple of day..... Then off I went...

 

[cgraven]

I wake and call Silky. Yet there is no answer. The ever efficient Mrs. Lee informs me that Silky would be away for a few days.

Early the next afternoon seaman 1st Jenkins appears at the manor’s door his message short and to the point.

“RECALL”

The Japanese had attacked one of our Gunboats and tempers where running high. We where ordered to sail at once to Chow Shun.

And So I told Silky all this in a note I left on her pillow and of my love.

All that had happened from that first accidental moment we met, to our last night came to my mind and stabbed at my heart as the USS "FOI DE CATHAY" steamed around the headland and pass Silky’s manor house. Headed to war once again.

 

[Silk Parlor]

After being away from home about 3 days I return, Taking Prince in to the Stables and get him settled. I make my way to the Manor.. Walking threw the back door I look around...
Mrs. Lee, Mrs. Lee you here?
Walk to the Parlor and we meet face to face..
Awww Mrs. Lee I am so glade to be home. I will go to take a bath will you please bring some water. I will see Mr. Chief Jones after my bath.. Now Off with you..
Turning on my heels I make my way to my room opening the door walking in I light the hearth. Walking to the Noon sun I look out on the sea.. Mrs. Lee comes and knocks on the door.
Come in Mrs.Lee.. Oh thank you dear..
I say as she poors my bath. Hereing her say Ma'am about 3 times. I answer her.
Yes Mrs. Lee what is it?
She walked to my bed and picked up a letter off the pillow handing it to me... Just by the look of it. I asked her to leave me.
Walking to my favorite rocking chair I sit and read the letter.
Laying the letter on the table. I walk to the bath getting in, I clean the dust and dirty from my body. I stand rising off then climbing out I go to my bed, Insteed of putting on my gown, putting it away. I put on one of my silk sleeping gowns..
I climb in to bed, Hugging my pillow as the tears fall crying my self to sleep....

 

[Silk Parlor]

Slowly I waken, my eyes focusing on the canopy silk top. As I roll over to face the window I see it is still dark out. Gathering my strength I pull my self out of bed.

Remembering his letter all that had been said.
Shaking my head at myself for the hasty way of living 5 days past
Only cause I couldn't let go of what I held with in for this man.
Only knowing now He feelings of me. Him not knowing what feelings I carried for him.

I take a cold bath, then dawned my gown. Doing my hair, and adding the finial touches.
Walking out of my room to the Parlor downstairs. Going to my desk I sit going over the books and all I have done since I had left.
Ringing the bell calling for Mrs. Lee.
She walks in carrying the silver tray with the pot of coffee on it.
Thanks Mrs. Lee. I shouldn't need you for the rest of the day. I will be heading to Shanghai after I finish here.
I should be home for supper. Mrs. lee turns and goes out.
Going back to the book, I gather writing paper, and lay it to one side.

Standing I walk to the window over looking the sea.
As I stand here I drift back remembering. When and How we first meet, the Jade Dragon.
Our first night then the second I spent with Ed.
Then running from him.
I walk back to my desk sitting.
I pull the writing paper from the side.
Garbing the well and the quail pin.
I write to Ed.

Dearest Ed,
Please do forgive me of my hasty retreat from you. I hadn't planed on everything happening. I couldn't bare my heart betraying my mind and my passion. From the first day when I bumped in to you. Talking over life and things about us. Then our walk threw the bonds as the people sneered at us, you defending my honor as no other had done. Sitting in the Special garden at the Jade Dragon. Where we first kissed, then the fear hitting me I ran from you. Only to have you fallow me. Where you hear my word to Prince. Then my hearts confession witch I still hear. "I fear my heart would betray me, I longed for the love of a man. I fell in a trap and was render lost for so long, then only to be bartered by the one I did love so.... I vowed never to let that happen to my heart again. Then I ran into you, my attraction for you was so very over powering. My mind swirled with confusion. The wanting, needing of affection your touch all of you...I was frighten of loss again. I.... I couldn't bare it again... Losing all that I have Loved...."
With in hours of knowing you, My heart wanted no other. It was you I long for, you should me what no other has done. I am in your debt. Yet I fear of my loss of you. In deep of my haste I may have done so already. Please do forgive me. I shall always cherish our time. Keeping you in my heart.

Sincerely with all my Love.
Countess Pearl Grace Of Grace Manor


Folding it, then sealing I set it to one side. Then taking a fresh sheet out. I write another Letter.

Placing the Letter to Ed inside of the one to the Commander. Addressing it to Commander Butcher of the USS FOI DE CATHY.

Gathering my things for the days ride, going to the safe. I open and retrieve some funds.
Putting it my satchel and heading for the back door. Going out to the stables, I go Get prince ready for the long ride.
Then out the stable door, down the path to Shanghai. Arriving in Shanghai high Just a little before noon. I ride Princes to the Navy head quarters, and drop off the letters. Then I turn and head to the local shops to gather some more silk... Stopping at the Jade for some tea in the garden.
After Having my tea I leave and head for home. Getting home put prince up. I take all my packages in the house.
I walk to Ed's chambers. Standing at the doorway looking in. Sadden for what I had done to him.
I hope he forgives me thinking to my self.

 

[Silk Parlor]

After standing some time in the doorways. I walk to my room going to the mantle above the hearth I remove the skeleton key. I walk back to Ed's chambers closing the door. Leaving everything the way it was, When I left him that night. I lock the door walk back to my room replacing the key from where I took it.
Walking to the window I stare out over looking the sea as the sun sets. Walking to my dresser I pull out my silk nighty. Striping down I put it on. Climbing in to bed to sleep. Ed in my thoughts as I fall a sleep.........

________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Four months had passed since I sent the letters out. Getting Grace manor fixed to my liking. Building a bunk house in the far back corner be hind the stables for the men I hired to keep the grounds. I Hired more servants, a butler, a cook, And of Course Mrs. Lee, She's Now Head of all the workers in side the manor. Her Husband Mr. Lee tend to the men workers out side. I had gotten 6 new Mustangs I had a total of 7 now. A black carriage, and I had the men build a dock out on the sea behind the manor. I would help in a lot of the choirs, in getting things done. I bought few other thing in this time as well.

After a trying day of fixing the last bedroom in the manor. I stand at the door looking in. I am please with the work I have done. Done in pine, silk and Black marble. I walk out closing the door behind me. I walk to the Chamber I keep locked. Placing my hand apon the door. Closing my eyes, Still remembering after all this time. I walk to my room. Over to the window as the sunset. I take my bath, leaning back relaxing, closing my eyes to rest. I climb out I walk to my bed I put on my night gown. Then climbing in between the sheet laying back drifting to sleep....
Some time in the middle of the night, It started to rain. Hearing a loud boom I sit up looking a round, Till my eyes focused. Getting out of bed I walk to the window seeing the lighting in the sky. Looking down to the stables as I her Prince and the others Fussing. I dawn my rob, through on my boots and head for my bedroom door. Down the steps, threw the kitchen and out the back door I run to the stables as the rain pounds down over and around me... Reaching the stables I go in. Prince in his stall have a fit. I grab a lantern lighting it, I walk to him.
* Why do you fret so, 'Tis only a storm. * Reaching up I stroke his mane. Trying to comfort him. As the loud thunder rumbles, the lighten strikes making a loud crashing noise. Prince and the other horses still having fits. I notice a strong smell, I walk to the other side of the stall. * With a deep gasp. * I turn and run to Prince, opening his Stall I swat his rear end, causing him to buck in pain as he hastily runs out of the stables. I run to the other 6 horses and did the same thing. Then I heard Mrs. Lee yelling for me to come out of the stables. The Stables a blaze, the smoke gather about me faster then I was able to move. My breathing shallow from the smoke as I feel faint. I feel a pair of hands on me. As I look over and it is Mr. Lee pulling at my arm.

Pulling me out of the Stables as it burns, I try to gather my thinking to remember if I had forgot any of my mustang's.
Standing in the pouring down rain, I watch as the stable burns. The men came running to try to put out the blaze.
* Its too late we can't save it Let it burn. We'll start to rebuild it tomorrow. Go find Prince and the other mustang's and place them in the corral. *
Still coughing from the smoke I inhaled. I turn and walk back to the Manor drenching wet with Mrs. Lee by my side.
Getting back to my room I climb in to bed shivering and coughing. I went back to sleep...

Waking the next morning sweat pouring off me. Feeling like I was freezing. I reach for the cord be side my. Ring for Mrs. Lee as I hear her approach my door, then walking in. *Mrs Lee please bring tea this morning. * I say in a deep shallow voice. Mrs. Lee walking to the side of my bed, seeing my face flush she places her hand apon my forehead.
* Miss Grace Ma'am you are burn with fever. I am going to send for the doctor. * She quickly turns, going out of my room return with a tray carrying a bowl, some tea and a cloth. Sitting on the side of my bed she places the cloth in the bowl ringing it out the placing it on my forehead. Drifting in and out most of the day. The doctor come in to see me. He checks me over. Turning to Mrs. Lee saying * Rice-field fever* the doctor said. *Give her this medicine to her 3 times a day. Only those who have been treated may come in. * With that they both walk out of my room. I drift back to sleep.... Sleeping for some time...

 

[cgraven]

The long dark nights at sea, the haunting memories of Silky and her charms . Her love so soft and tender The night breeze as I stand watch, caresses my cheek and I think of her , the salt spray on my lips and the raging storm, Silky’s lips , our passion..


Silky sweet memory haunting both my days and night and still the "FOI DE CATHAY" bears me away from my love and towards the unknown horrors of a war that lays ahead.

 

[Silk Parlor]

The doctor returning every 3 days or so to check on me. Then on his 2 visit as he listen to my heart and check every inch of me. He turns to Mrs. Lee. * Come walk me out there is something you must know. * Mrs. Lee and the doctor walking out. Then she return with a dreaded look apon her face.
I turn and drift back to sleep dreaming of him the one whom my heart betrayed me for. Knowing I love this man yet my fears drove me from. Only then when I return to search him out that he had gone back to the boat and war. Not knowing the love I have for him since we first meet.

Thinking of the time we spent together as I moan softly. Waking as he takes me in his arm caressing me.... Softly speaking * Oh Ed, why was I so foolish to run from your Love. Please forgive me I too Love you. * Softly moving I place my lips apon his. As I feel his warmth of his body against mine. Closing my eyes as we kiss passionately. As I feel something cold apon my forehead....

I open my eyes looking to my bed side. Smiling as I see Mrs. Lee sitting there with the cold cloth. * Where's Mr. Jones* I asked * He was just here. * Watching her as she looks at me she replays in her soft voice. * Miss Grace you been out about 22 days. And Mr. Jones hadn't returned. * Looking at her puzzled. I must have been dreaming of him.. *sighing* Thinking I been sleeping 22 days.
*Mrs. Lee may I have some tea please. * She looks to me, widening grin and nods. Scooting up in my bed placing the pillows be hind me. I lay back and relax. Mrs. walking in with my tea placing it on the stand. I ask how things are about the Manor as I remember the fire.
* How is Prince and the other mustang's? Has the new Stable been built yet? There is too much that has to be done. * Starting to get up I fall back weakly. Feeling I have no strength to move.
I climb back up on my pillows decieding to wait before I get up. Looking toward Mr. Lee.

Mrs. Lee looks at me like she wants to tell me something. Smiling at her. * Well what is it Mrs. Lee? Has something Happened to Mr. Jones while I been sick? What just tell me. * Mrs. Lee glances to the floor saying * It's nothing, it will wait. * She smiles pleasantly. Then she asked * Hungry? * Thinking about it a few seconds. * Yes I am starved. * She stands and goes out of the room and fetches me something to eat. Sitting up in bed I nibble the food. I Look toward Mrs. Lee. * No news of Mr. Jones? * Watching Mrs. Lees face. I new there hadn't been...

After I was done eating, I look at Mrs. Lee. * Please go fetch me some bathing water. I need a hot bath. * Watching her go and get my bathing things. I slowly hang my feet over the side of my bed then go to stand whle hanging on. Looking down noticing then the night gown had been changed. *I don't remember putting this one on. * Shrugging I walk to the bath, strip down and climb in. Laying back soaking in the hot water. * Mrs. Lee leave me a while I wish not be disturbed.* Watching her as she walks out closing the door be hind her. Closing my eyes, my mind drifts in to thought Of Ed....
