Mia climbed out of the tub and quickly dried and got dressed. The clothes she picked would be conservative next to what he’d seen Gio’s sex-ve wear the day before, but it was the most provocative outfit she owned at present. It seemed before her date with Gio she needed to go shopping for clothing that let him know she was ready to be his. After all, he’d made it in that his desire was for her to join his little family. OH to hell with it, call it what it was: She was ready to join Gio’s harem of willing women if he still wanted her. The thought of experiencing everything that the group could teach her had her dripping with arousal.


    She picked up her cellphone and called a number she hadn’t dialed since her graduation. She knew it was still active and that the person she wanted to talk to would answer. “Hello Princess, how may I help you?”


    Mia felt the anxiety within her ease. “Hello Cora, I’m sorry I’ve not called before now.”


    The voice of her parents’ loyal house manager cracked with emotion. “Oh, Mia honey. We’ve understood. You needed time to grieve ande to peace with all you lost. No one thinks less of you for taking that time.”


    Mia shook her head. “Yes, but I’ve left the entire Ind without the leadership it deserved. I never even checked to see how things were going. I just buried my head in the sand and pretended nothing existed from my old life. My father would be so ashamed of me.”


    The older woman gasped. “No Mia, don’t do that to yourself. Your father was never anything but proud of you and your sisters. He would have fully understood you need to find yourself. It was why he made sure there were contingencies in ce in case of something like their deaths happening.”


    “So, how are things there?”


    “Things here are good. Nics has kept things in ce as your regent during your absence and will continue until you are ready to return to us and take up your mantle.”


    Mia nodded, even though the old woman couldn’t see her. “About that. I’ve just taken a new job but I want toe home too. The job is here in Maine. I’m the CFO of a new tech startup. However, I’m going to offer my new boss space on the ind. He has a growing family and some trouble here that I think our little slice of home could help with. Will there be any problem with me moving home and slowly assuming my rightful role?”


    “Princess, you coulde home right now and be crowned Queen tomorrow. Nics has no desire to keep the role of ruler permanently. He has always known that you would return one day to take up your role as Queen.”


    “No one may want that when they meet my new friends. They are a unique family, Cora. Unlike any I’ve experienced before. They’ve offered me not just a job but a role in their family. It just isn’t something that many people will ept. It causes them problems here.”


    “I’m not sure I understand what you are trying to tell me, Princess.”


    Mia sighed and then just dove in, exining Gio’s ‘family’ as she understood it.This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    Cora listened and then chuckled. “Mia, that won’t be a problem here. Your father and mother kept you innocent because you left here before you were an adult. They found this entire Ind as a nation because of what you consider ‘Alternative Rtionships.’ Your mother and father, honey. Before they were husband and wife were brother and sister. Your sisters each when they graduated coge came home and join your parents as lovers and they all married each other. We have several ‘Alternative rtionships’ here. No one will be surprised if youe home and bring a group of consorts with you. This might be the one ce that you all could be epted.”


    Mia sat down, stunned at what she had just learned. “So that was the big surprise father had mentioned before they headed over here for graduation.”


    “I suspect it was. I know they waited to tell both your sisters until after they graduated college. Then when you sisters wanted to join themselves with your father and mother, it pleased them both so much that their children wanted to be their lovers. I don’t think anyone here will think twice about your new friends if you join their family or not. And I know that our entire poption will rejoice at having you home and in your rightful ce.”


    Mia felt the weight of guilt fall away from her and the lightness of freedom settle upon her. “Then prepare the house, Cora. I shall bring them for a visit this weekend and if they agree, I shall join their family and offer them my home and a suitable ce for thepany to set up shop.”


    “As you wish, your Highness. Shall I inform Nics of your imminent return?”


    “Yes. Let him know that while there, I would like to meet with him and start the discussion on a smooth transition for me to take my rightful ce.”


    “I will do so, Princess. I shall ensure that everything is ready for your return. How many shall I n for?”


    “Well there could be as few as just me, or as many as nine or ten. I’m not sure so n for ten. Oh, and Cora. My friends mostly like to sleep together, I’ve been told. So if you could put some bedding together for one gigantic bed and a couple of extra rooms for those that want to find some privacy.”


    Coraughed. “Princess, it will be my pleasure to ensure that you and your new family are well taken care of. With your permission, I shall ready the Royal Apartment for your return.”


    Mia stopped for a moment. “Are my parents’ things still there?”


    “No honey, I have already had those stored so that whenever you felt like returning the rooms would belong to you.”


    A tear rolled down Mia’s face at how understanding and in tune to her needs the staff was. They each felt like old friends and family more than her staff. “Thank You. I appreciate that more than you know.”


    “Honey, I understand. I loved them too. But it was thest act of service for them I could do. And a way for me to take care of you while you found the healing you needed to return to us.”


    “I shall see you this weekend. I have a meeting I need to get to, so have the yacht and crew waiting at the pier here in Maine on Saturday.”


    “As you wish, Your Highness.”


    Then Cora said goodbye, and they got off the phone. Mia smiled and grabbed herptop and headed out to her car. Time to meet Gio and her coworkers and shock them all with her secret. She felt more at peace with her decision. If Gio still wanted her to join his family after she exined her secret to them, she had already decided she would say yes. She would allow this group of loving people to teach her everything she needed to know about intimacy and sexual gratification.

    Gio sat in the living room staring at the woman lying inside the dog crate. Becky was naked except for a cor around her neck. It was cloth and, ording to Abi, just a ceholder for the permanent cor that was to be ced on her tonight. What intrigued him was that Becky was lying on arge dog bed in the crate and wearing a pair of ears attached to a hair band and had a fury tailed butt pug inserted into her ass. It seemed that Abi had figured out that her mother wanted to be used as a sex pet. Becky wanted to be humiliated by being treated like a bitch dog. Gio had never thought about a woman pretending to be or embracing a lifestyle that had her acting like a dog, but Becky seemed content to lie in the crate just like a puppy in training. No one else was in the room with them, as the girls were still cleaning up from the fun they’d just had downstairs. “Okay Becky. Will you please exin to me what you are doing and why?”
