My life had been a journey of much happiness and much tragedy. My first marriage had been arranged, my wife the daughter of an English noble, a textile manufacturer, my father's most important trading partner in Europe for his cotton. My wife had been a good woman, true, attractive yet timid, a devout Christian who had struggled with allowing herself the joys of the flesh, other than for purposes of procreation. She had many difficulties conceiving, four miscarriages in out first two years of marriage.
When the blessed day finally came, their child being born, it had nearly killed her, severe bleeding suggested she should not have any more
children. With her ability to conceive forever gone, so went her willingness to enjoy each other sexually. It was as if she felt it was a penance for her inability to mother more children. She encouraged me to enjoy the needs of a man, just not in our marital bed. And I am ashamed to say, I allowed myself to partake liberally.
When they died, I felt as if my life was over, deep was my depression, almost as deep as my guilt. Was this my punishment for for the sins of my endeavors? In turn I became celibate and did my own penance, focusing exclusively on the business at hand. My sole focus was the running of my father's plantation after his death, and then my duty as a Confederate Officer. They had given me a purpose. Many a woman had been directed my way over these last years, but none had received any more than a polite rejection, as I redoubled my efforts at seclusion. It must have been the injury, my need for help and kindness that had allowed a window to my heart to open, and for Elizabeth to easily slip through.
Thus as I had ridden this day, I had found myself sinking back to the man I had been. Elizabeth had awoken in me something from the ashes, like a phoenix, I had felt feelings and passions, that I had thought had long since died, and in some ways had never existed like this at all.
Thus it was with great trepidation, a move of utter desperation I had taken her into my arms, and kissed her. The first kiss had been sublime, the second even better, but nothing compared to the soft whisper from her lips, "Yes, I will lie with you." The joy in my heart almost did it burst, and the electric shock that moved throughout my body was mere fuel to the flames of desire that were raging throughout my being.
I pulled her in and kissed her one more time! Hands roving, bodies pressing, lips latching and tongues dancing! We finally broke and stepped away, "Thank you...I must gather worms, and catch us a feast, for I want you to be strong and sustained for the final night of our trip!"
An hour later, worms turned into a small fish, that would yield three fine rainbow trout, each a pound or more per. We set the fish in a small pail partially filled with water to keep them fresh, and I offered my hand to walk Elizabeth back. Marabel had the fire raging and was preparing onions and potatoes we had brought from the farmland of her shack. I held up the pail, a smile on my face, a grin from ear to ear. I held up the pail, "We were successful...let's eat!"
