Love Triangles

"You're awfully chipper today Sonia. I know Caleb is good, but you're acting like you're up in heaven. You wanna come back down here with us mortals?" Amelia commented as the three women walked down an aisle at the grocery store.

Sonia playfully stuck her tongue out at Amelia and joked, "No, I like it up here. The clouds are fluffy and soft, besides, they have unicorns."

June put her arm around Sonia, chuckling "Dear god woman. Whatever medication you're on, you need to share."

Sonia grinned and playfully stated, "Oh, I'll share. After all, it's the duty of the Sisterhood to aid Stretcher Kings in giving out their delicious medication."

"Ok spill, My son is good, but you'd think he gave you a million orgasms. What exactly did you and Caleb do after I left, besides have sex I mean?" June bumped her hip against Sonia's as she said this.

Sonia couldn't stop smiling, she had worn a grin all morning. She said, "Oh nothing much, Caleb just told me that he likes me so much wants me to remain with the family after my stint as a UN rep is over. He said he didn't care what I had to tell my superiors. He even said I could be the personal priestess for the whole family." She finished with a smirk, "Oh, and he wants to keep you too Amelia."

The three women hugged and danced around at the news. Then Sonia dropped the bombshell. "He also said he thought you two were falling in love."

The other two looked at each other and June spoke first, "Are we? I mean I... but I have a husband. I love him dearly too. But I... I really like you Amelia..."

Amelia hugged June. She looked into her eyes and whispered, "I like you a lot too. I figured that out already. Maybe it's just a crush, but it could be love. But, I don't love your husband. I mean he's a great guy, and he is great to you, but the only man I want is Caleb. Freaking love triangles."

"But what are we going to do? What happens if we do fall in love? I can't... I won't leave my husband." June felt tears begin to form in her eyes.

Sonia huffed an interjection, "Why should either of you do anything different than what you're already doing? I think you both are imagining a problem when there isn't one."

At their puzzled looks Sonia elaborated, "Look, I hate to beat you over the head with my religion, and I know it's going to sound like I'm trying to preach to you, but I AM a priestess of the sisterhood. We don't look at the world the way others do."

She put her hand on June's shoulder and continued, "No one says you have to leave Harold to be with Amelia. And no one says Amelia has to chose between giving herself to Harold to be with you, or giving you up to stay true to Caleb. The Book of Sirena teaches us that it is entire possible to be deeply, madly in love with more than one person at the same time. Her situation was not that different from yours actually. Yours is certainly more complicated, since you have a husband, and you and Amelia are both having sex with a Stretcher King, but the lesson is the same."

"Look at it this way. June, you've given your husband permission to be with his secretary Cindy. Heck, you're going off with him to be with her this weekend. He isn't leaving you to do it, and nothing is being hidden between you. What do you think he is going to say about you and Amelia? You've already had sex with half a dozen women without him."

June opened her mouth to speak but Sonia didn't give her time to interrupt. "Before you say anything, yes, Harold and Cindy are just having sex, and this is love. But what happens if Cindy falls in love with Harold? You said yourself that Cindy's had a crush on Harold for years. She might already be in love with him. And what about if Harold falls in love with her? If you think you'd do anything other than open your heart and home to her, then you are fooling yourself. You've been watching your son and Kathy do it all week. All five of his harem girls love him, even Katie, and they are all willing to share him."

"Your son looks up to you. Learn from him this time. He has fully embraced the fact that he has to split his time between the women he loves. He took Chris into his harem because Kathy asked him to. She wanted Chris, he wouldn't have taken her without Kathy's insistence. And Kathy expected and encouraged him to take Angie and Gabbie because she knew he wanted them. They've been friends for years, just like you and Cindy."

"Just because Amelia isn't going to sleep with your husband, that doesn't mean she can't sleep with you. Sometimes it can be you an your husband, sometimes it will be you and Amelia. You want your husband to be happy. You want Amelia to be happy. Do you really think the man you've been married to for nearly 20 years is going to make you chose between him and Amelia, especially when he has Cindy as well? And don't forget, you slept with Kathy and Caleb last night. I can tell you have feelings for her too. And I'll bet my left arm that Harold won't say one word against it."

"My final point is simply this, your son, the man that you belong to, wants you to be with Amelia. If he didn't, he wouldn't have said that no matter what he intends to keep her around."

She turned to Amelia and said, "He knows how you feel about him, or did you forget you told him you were falling in love with him too?"

"Wait... Do you think Caleb is going to claim me?" Amelia was stunned. She really, really liked him. She recalled telling him she was falling in love with him, just as much as his mother. She had nothing against Harold, but she had already decided the only man she was interested in sleeping with was Caleb. He had ruined her for any other man, even his father. She recognized that he was over half a decade younger than her, and he spent far more time with the other girls, but she couldn't argue with her heart.

Sonia could see Amelia thinking so she added more things for her to think about, "If he has to claim you to keep you and June together, then he will. He cares for you, I have no doubt of that. But he isn't in love with you, not yet anyway. I think he wants another option because he wants the two of you to be happy without him having to interfere, but claiming you is always a possibility if he can't find another way."

She had left both of them with a lot to think about. When the were standing in line at the checkout counter June said, "Hey Sonia, do you think we could spend some time talking about your religion? I think I may need to know more."

Amelia nodded and said, "Yeah, me too please."

April surreptitiously checked out Linda Berg as she sat across from her in the school conference room and re-read through her file. She had already asked all the questions she needed to offer the young marshal the position. Her file photo didn't really do her justice. Her light brown hair was slightly longer than regulations allowed. She had cupids bow lips and was thinner than April expected. When they had greeted each other, April slipped her a bit of tongue, and the younger woman had returned it tentatively. April wondered how long it would take before Caleb had her clothes off.

Linda looked over at the police scanner and asked, "Um, excuse me ma'am, but is there a reason you're listening to the local police frequency?"

April looked up at her and frowned, "I am in charge of keeping one of the most valuable men in the world safe and alive. I take his safety very seriously. If there is any danger to him, I want to know immediately. If you are accepted to join this team, you will do whatever it takes to do the same. The only reason we are conducting the interview here, and not in a classroom somewhere with him present, is the school doesn't want armed guards disrupting the learning environment."

She didn't mention that she was head over heels for Caleb. If this young lady makes it through this interview, she will learn first hand. Caleb has a charm and charisma that draws women to him. I can't explain it. He's barely an adult, yet women from young adult to retirees all get soggy panties around him.

April decided to warn her a little bit, "The first thing you need to know, is that the Stretcher King has a lot of sex. I know you're thinking, 'Yeah, he's a Stretcher King, comes with the territory'. What you might not have thought about is you'll likely be around it, a lot. He has already had three orgies this week. Once at school and twice at his home. The family considers anything more than four people an orgy. Threesomes and foursomes happen often and for any reason, and he hasn't gone to bed with just one woman since I've been here. And that isn't even counting all the other sex everyone has. The women in the house use the guest room for sex when Caleb isn't participating, and that's fairly common as well. His harem also conduct a blowjob competition to wake him every morning. And he has barely even started conducting his official duties."

That got a rise out of her. April's estimation of how long Linda would keep her clothes on around Caleb just dropped. So far she looked promising.

"The team so far is just me, two agents on loan from the FBI and three marshals stationed at the house that the UN purchased. The UN house is our base of operation for our mission. It's a five bedroom house with two beds per room. You'll have to share a room with the Canadian UN rep. The Mexican rep is currently staying in the guest room of the Stretcher King's home but she has some things at the base as well. The Canadian rep also sometimes sleeps over at the Stretcher King's home so you might not see her every night. The UN team consists of the two current UN reps, with another on the way, a driver, and two clerks. You may have noticed, counting you, that is three more people than there are beds. Be glad the clerks live nearby. We were supposed to have one of the FBI agents as a driver but that isn't possible considering our current personnel limits."

"Now, the marshals at the house monitor the security cameras, and are the quick response team if any of the panic buttons get pressed. There is always one on duty, and never less than two at the base at all times. If you join the team, you will start out on day duty with me. Once you are integrated into the team, you will cover the day shift when I take days off, and help cover for the base team as well. The hours are long, essentially you will be on duty from dawn till dinner time. After dinner the house is secured for the evening and one of the FBI loaners gets to sit in a unmarked car outside the home for the night shift. The other loaner is covering the base marshals when their days off come up. Eventually they will be replaced with Marshals once I have finished conducting interviews. Any questions so far?"

Linda did the math in her head and said, "That's barely enough people to cover all the shifts when you include days off."

"You are correct. And that also assumes no one takes any vacation days. Believe me when I tell you the UN reps are not happy with the security arrangements. They have already filed a formal complaint. That's why you got thrown on a plane as quick as you did. The good news is that there is an HRT team permanently stationed nearby. If the shit hits the fan, we have highly skilled and well armed back up. The bad news is their base of operation is half an hour away."

"Now, I am going to warn you, so pay close attention. Sonia Torres, the Mexican UN rep, is a priestess of the Sisterhood. I really don't give two shits what your religious or political leanings are, but if you have any bigoted thing to say about the sisterhood or Mexicans, keep it to yourself. Sonia is well respected by the Stretcher King and his family. They welcome her advice, and the sister is a recent convert to the religion." April didn't add that Sonia was also an expert pussy licker. If Linda joined the team, it would only be a matter of time before she discovered that for herself.

"In addition to the family, the Stretcher king has four concubines and a girlfriend in his harem. One of them is also Mexican, and another is Japanese. He has claimed all of them as his, so they are also under our protection, which the powers that be didn't factor into his security needs. We are basically it for the entire family, and none of his harem live with him permanently."

"So, still interested in the job?"
