Tales Of Daddy's Desire: A Triptych of Taboo Lust

MAKING LOVE

1.

Crazy times!

I turn 14 in that summer before my freshman year-I am seduced my father and now my body is sore, my sex well-thumped. I squeeze my legs together, feeling my clit, mashing it between my thighs, remembering, longing for when my dad gets back home from work. Six p.m. I will be ready. I want him again.

It started just over two years ago. I was 11, three weeks shy of my 12th birthday. My mom got up one morning, and left. No goodbye! No I love you! No note.

That's all she wrote.

My dad and I were devastated. We were cheated. We had no warning of the coming split. We felt like she gut kicked us. Dad, financially set in his college teaching job, struggled with guilt. Blamed himself most of the time. I never really understood why mom left. And nobody confided in me. I was the child. My dad and I spent hours together, consoling, hugging, crying. I was closer to my dad than ever before. Our lives continued.
