(Author’s Note: This chapter is heavy-duty sports oriented. There are a few important ‘non-sports’ details but be warned, this contains much basketball, volleyball and a little gymnastics action. I hope it is realistic and an enjoyable read. As the book title suggests, this chapter is mostly about Championships.) “Look in these eyes! These eyes don’t lie. And they say that if you don’t blink, Then you don’t die.” (The opening lyrics to Def Leppard’s, Undefeated.) Alumni Hall, Western...
Jasper Junction wasn’t much of a place. It wasn’t one which Thad would havechosen. But he had to indulge the whims of those who worked for him, to someextent, and if Marcella felt it was the location which the Lord had pointed out to her,he would make the most of it.Any town in the Bible-belt offered an opportunity, he had learned.He toured up and down the four-block stretch of Main Street, looking for anewspaper office. He found none. He stopped at the d**g store and perused thestands in front...
Mr. Labatt’s BMW on HWY 401, Ontario 6:42pm, Saturday, November 24, 1979 ‘What a fuckin’ awesome weekend!‘ I thought as four of the six key girls in my life were engaged in a flurry of various conversations as I drove Mr. Labatt’s B-mer back from Guelph on the 401 (Ontario’s equivalent to the Interstate System in the States). ‘I might as well not be in the car,’ I chuckled to myself as Shannon, Lynette, Zupena and Sammy regaled each other with their Friday night, Saturday morning escapades,...
“I wonder what my wife and Mother Frisbee are thinking,” Harvey fretted as his carhurtled along the interstate highway, Edna comfortably cuddled at his side.“Forget them,” she advised. “You’re entitled to do what you want.”“Yes, but what if they notify the police? They’re liable to put out one of those APB’s.And when I go back to my wife, what can I tell her?”Edna yawned and ran her fingers through her red hair. “Do like they do in themovies-pretend you had amnesia.”“You think that would work?”...
With the NIS program finally over, here are the playlists from the Welcome to the... concert that Mike and the Time Bandettes, and the Shania Twain Band played at the John Labatt Center in London. I regularly used ‘unique’ web-links to songs to get a feel for how other bands have played these songs. For example, I used Nickelback’s cover of ZZTop’s Sharp Dressed Man as a guide for what Mike and the Time Bandettes, and the lighting crew did during this song. In the Chapter Songs’ list, I did...
Labatt Guest House, London, Ontario 6:38am, Saturday, December 1, 1979 “Ohh, Ohh, Ohh, Dievs,” Zupena softly whispered as she rocked her butt and tightly squeezed thighs against my slumbering body, but with my morning wood unknowingly planted firmly in her warm, wet pussy. “What are you, ‘Oh Dievs-ing’, about 3-Z?” Lynette barely whispered over her shoulder at the blonde giantess to her rear. “Ohh, Mikhail, he ... Oh, Dievs,” Zupena whispered in Lynette’s ear. “No, he’s ... you’re not,”...

I don't quite know how it happened but I found myself, on my knees, my panties soaking wet staring directly at my teenage son's large, thick throbbing erection, glistening in the dim light, covered in his girlfriends juices, her musky scent filling my nostrills. His cock looked amazing & I felt my already wet pussy gush with another discharge of fluid as I watched pre cum oozing from the tip of his cock & drip onto the floor in front of me, his penis now just inches from my eagerly...

Her corrupted priest drove the gray church van into the slumbering city of Chicago. In the back, amid the weapons designed to fight vampires, lay the three enslaved women dominated by the priest. They were both his whores and his unholy champions. Demonic powers lurked in the souls of the women. They would kill the vampiric threats to Jezebel's client Faust....
Tempe’s Bedroom, North London, Ontario 10:24pm, Friday, November 16, 1979 “I gotta go pee, Mike,” Brick said after she recovered from her a body shaking orgasm I gave her with my tongue and long digits. As my young brunette girlfriend made her way to Tempe and Tina’s Jill & Jill co-joining bathroom, I scanned her now seriously slender body. Lisa said she’d lost seven pounds while in the hospital and she now tipped the scales at a whopping ninety-five pounds. My busty beauty joked that...
Mike’s Barracuda, London, Ontario 10:36am, Saturday, December 22, 1979 “You’re one of the best songwriters I’ve ever seen, Mike,” Eda started to say as I slowed to a stop at Highbury Avenue, “so why don’t you write Canella, and your baby a song that captures your heart and provides her and little JM with the joy of Christmas?” “Oh! That’s an awesome idea, E! Maybe we could play whatever song you write for them in our televised concert, Mike?” Lisa said as she leaned forward from the...
Woah, did Motherless.com get a facelift? I know I suggested it in my review, so I guess they listened to me! Well, I’m not going to brag too much about it, and instead, I’m going to focus on what I’ve set out to bring you today. We’re looking at an amateur website, and I just know that many of you are begging for amateur creampie content, so that’s what we’re looking at. I know how much you think Motherless can look sickening and pretty gruesome at times, but the creampie content can be quite...

Medway High School, Arva, Ontario 8:47am, Monday, November 26, 1979 “As most of you know by now, our girls’ basketball team won ... no, they dominated ... the double-A Ontario basketball championship in Guelph on Friday and Saturday,” Mr. Williamson said from our gym’s stage.

I woke up and found that they had again rearranged us so that I was again spooning Bianca. I felt stickiness between my legs. That meant my period was due. This was a mixed blessing. My monthly visit was always a hassle, and being trapped here naked it would be even worse. I guess I’d have to use wadded toilet paper, and hope the supply held out for the day. On the plus side, for the first time since I got here, I knew what day it was. We have been confined for about two weeks, which was...

This story begins in the early 1970s Back then we were two very young hot horny teen boys, we had both reached & passed puberty together and we were both now locked in lust for each other, nothing would stop us playing with each other, sucking each other or...
Fear creeped into us as the door closed. Having our mothers with us was a bigger help than any of us realized or would admit. Though technically women outside, we were still little girls who needed a parent as an emotional anchor. Endless speculation circulated amongst us, as to what was happening to our mothers. Darcy tried to end it, by saying, “It is no use to worry about things we have no control over.” But worry we did. Whoever the traitor was, she had taken our last piece of normalcy...
Labatt’s Guest House 5:22pm, Wednesday, November 14, 1979 “My mom said Lisa is gonna have to stay until Thursday morning. Dr. Candice wants to make doubly sure her depressed white blood cell counts aren’t from something else besides that flu bug,” I said as the four of us stood around the kitchen island getting a snack before we started our last practice session before our Friday competition. “I can’t believe that Dr. Wellend has taken such an interest in Brick,” Cano replied as she put...
Medway High School, Arva, Ontario 9:16am, Friday, November 30, 1979 “Are you gonna kill me, if I kinda pass on doing anything ... later on today?” I whispered to Tracy Norton and Elaine Roonee after waiting on them after Mr. Ballows ended our first period music class a little earlier than normal. The Little-man made use of both Roo-Roo and Tracy’s naked bodies, along with naked trumpeter, Darren Partridge in his lecture on changes in sexual connotations and views in music. I was very...

Our second day at the nudist campVanessa was the first to waken. She woke me up then Kate got up. Vanessa wanted to get something to eat. What's the dress code? I was like what do you mean? The dress code Vanessa said. Do we have to wear clothes? Kate was a little puzzled. Is this the same girl I had to take her bikini bottoms off yesterday? I hardly sleep last night. All I kept thinking about was you. You were such an exhibitionist walking back to the room without any clothes, cum & all on...
I woke to the familiar glare of the harsh white light, but this time none of my friends were with me. I was alone in the small room where I had talked to my mother, or one of the ones just like it. The door was locked, and there was nothing, absolutely nothing to do. So what was I to do to pass the time but beat off? I now knew that my mother had drugged us to be super horny. Young girls did not masturbate so readily or so often. But my clit was so achingly hard; I had to do something to...
When I woke, I immediately went for a shower. It felt nice to wash off all the stickiness from the night before. There was a new box with another paltry meal. At least the sandwich was peanut butter and jelly, not bologna, and there was a pear, instead of an apple. That little variety meant a lot. We also each had three different pills to take. I count myself lucky that I had three friends I could rely on to not eat my share of the food while I showered. Until I was kidnapped and...
Atlanta – Friday - DAY TWELVE – When the luxuriously equipped CS&S Lear 60XR carrying the four nurses landed at the Atlanta airfield, it taxied across and stopped between the Air Ambulance and Belair hangars, then swung around as if for a quick exit. The girls wanted to show the aircraft off to their friends however, and the pilots had been briefed by Betty to do this, so he made no objection. They were quickly joined by everyone from the two hangars, who were soon oohing and aahing...
A Story of the Institute of Apotheosis Research Chapter Four: Daughter Enjoys Incestuous Creampies By mypenname3000 Copyright 2018 Note: Thanks to wrc264 for beta reading this! “Yes, that would be so hot,” Henry Archer, the newest god created by the Institute of Apotheosis Research, had said only moments ago. He was answering his new girlfriend he created with his mind-control powers. The God's words echoed in Ulrich's mind. The gangbang happening in the break room of the Institute's...
23 Domestic HarmonyAfter the hectic run-up to Christmas and the previous day’s sex it was nice to spend a couple of days just with our own company. We had a night out with Dan, Ally, Tom & Heather but it was just a night out – a meal and then drinks – as Lisa said when we got home it made a very nice change – and she was right it did, although it may just be a sign of us getting a bit older and slowing down. As we kind of suspected might happen Helen and Stu had become a couple, however...
STAR – The Valley - DAY 16 - Tuesday Today is going to be another busy one, but I am lying in bed thinking of Willie; there was something special about that nice old man. But I have to get up and moving. This Ferdie Felton character (what a name for an important company Vice President.) is due to arrive at 0900. I hope Jennie gets back in time. But I shouldn't have worried, as Dewey's G-5 landed at 0830 with her and Bill on board. The first thing I did after getting into my office,...
We only have a few hours left before we had to leave to catch our flight home. We had to get breakfast.We slept through the rest of the afternoon & night. Who could blame us?I was done showering. Vanessa said it was OK for Kim to go next. There's always plenty of hot water in a hotel.Kim & I had a towel wrapped around us. That's the most we've been covered in 2 days. It almost felt funny. We were sharing the mirror fixing our hair & putting our makeup on. We talked a little about...
Zupena’s Parents’ Bedroom, Ilderton, Ontario 6:33am, Sunday, November 18, 1979 My dream was exquisite. In it, my hard, motionless cock was being milked within an amazingly tall blonde’s silky smooth, yet wonderfully tight pussy. Our bodies were melded together as I spooned against her long, lean back and tight butt. I remembered my right hand was gently squeezing a warm breast, with a hard nipple that was trying to leave a permanent indentation in my palm. This Amazonian girl slowly twisted...
Robertson’s House, Komoka, Ontario 10:38pm, Saturday, November 24, 1979 “Are you sure your folks are good with us like ... being naked in your hot tub?” Tempe asked as I pulled the sliding glass door to their living room closed. With her pink and purple polo up over her head, Lynette laughingly asked, “Is our nudist girl afraid of being naked in my hot tub?” “No-ah! I just wanna make sure before we stripped off our clothes, that’s all,” Tempe replied but quickly pulled her London-Western...
Labatt Guest House, North London, Ontario 7:17pm, Wednesday, November 28, 1979 Just as Lynette opened the front door of the guest house, I ripped into a sixty second hard charging guitar riff on my Silverburst. Right after Cano threw her bag beside the door, Sammy flipped a wireless mic to our grinning blonde, and Lisa handed her, her earpiece monitors in order to get her up to speed with no usual Bandette-like greetings. Eda was simply grinning behind her drum kit, ready to kick ass and...
Montcalm Volleyball Party House, London, Ontario 9:21pm, Friday, December 7, 1979 “Are you guys really gonna play a few songs for us?” Cassie West, the host of this Montcalm volleyball party excitedly asked as Lisa, Lynette, Sammy and I walked into her house carrying our acoustic guitar cases. “Didn’t E come in with a guitar?” Lisa asked her older teammate. “Yeah, but she’s like the drummer of your band, so I wasn’t sure ‘bout what was happening,” Cassie replied with a huge smile. She...
Medway High School, Arva, Ontario 7:57am, Monday, December 10, 1979 “What the heck has gotten into you, Mike?” Bruce Smythe laughed after I landed from throwing down a 360 spinning dunk on a fast-break during our early morning pickup game. “Just glad this is the last week of school ... before exams,” I laughed as I ran past my friend. “He’s happy he made it with a couple of gymnastic chicks over the weekend,” Jon laughed and shared a high-5 with me. “I can’t help it if, ‘I thought I was...
Labatt’s Limousine, Returning to London 11:47pm, Friday, December 21, 1979 “I can’t believe you guys were able to simply jam out that Christmas song,” Stephanie exclaimed as we enjoyed some snacks and cokes in the back of the limousine after our concert in St. Thomas. “Oh! Gawd! I was worried about playing it when you joked that you wanted to experiment with a Santa Claus is Coming to Town to the audience,” Wayne laughed with Eda tucked under his arm. “I was amazed at how well that came...
Althouse College Gymnasium, London 9:11pm, Friday, December 28, 1979 When I pulled into the parking space reserved for us behind Althouse College, a security guard came running up to my deep purple Barracuda. As Wayne and I got out, this rotund man yelled, “Hey! That spot is reserved for members of the band playing, tonight. You’ll have to find some other place to park.” “If this spot is reserved for the band,” Wayne calmly replied as he walked to the front of my car, “then we’re in the...
Meeting S&S - The Beginning I was welcomed on board the aircraft by a very well dressed man in dress slacks and a sport coat who introduced himself as Chuck Johnson, the pilot. Standing next to him was a nice looking lady, equally well dressed, who was introduced as Lisa Johnson, the co-pilot. They escorted me into the aircraft where I was surprised to see my former student, Sandy Flowers. Next to Sandy was a lady who smiled beautifully, and who was also introduced as Sandy Flowers. I...
21 Christmas (part 1)Emma arrived first for the Christmas break – me and Lisa picked her up from the train station, with, it seemed to me, enough luggage for a six month break and not three weeks. When we got back to the house I told her she could have any bedroom she liked – which seemed to please her and she immediately plumped for one with a double-bed in it “In case I get lucky” she said with a smile which got her a withering look from her mum. Sophie & Paul turned up a couple of days...
Mother's Into S&M - Part one"No! No! Don't whip me, Uncle Jim! Please, don't whip me!" Cori Fosterpleaded.Her bare feet whipped back and forth against the dead autumn leaves.It was cold outside, the night wind stirring the bare branchesoverhead and whistling through the small grove of pines.But Cori felt nothing but the sheer power of her terror as she hungthere from the overhead branch. Her naked asscheeks jiggled againstone another while she banged her knees painfully against the bark...
CHUCK - Tuesday Day Nine part #2 Lisa and I quickly changed clothes before we took off. After the usual "Mother/Eyes" exchanges, we were soon taxiing up to the hangars out at the secret training base in the desert. We did our shutdown checks and were taken straight to a conference room. We only waited there for a couple of minutes before our US Marshal walked in, accompanied by a man who I suspected was the Base Commander. After greeting us, the Marshal immediately began asking about the...
For the next two weeks, approximately, me and my friends spent our days in class with my mother learning how be great at sex. I said approximately, because time seemed fluid. We never had a clock, and some days seemed shorter than others. Some mornings we would wake up dead tired, and other times we’d all be awake for hours waiting for the lights to come on. I learned later, that this was done deliberately. Throwing off a person’s circadian rhythms is an excellent way to weaken ones...
CHUCK - Tuesday DAY 9 part # 1 We were enjoying our hotel breakfast when I turned to speak to John. "Please make sure that Steve doesn't over stretch himself after I leave," I told him. "That's totally unnecessary,." Steve protested, "I'm fine today." Unfortunately, he winced slightly as he turned; the girls saw this and ganged up on him, insisting that he certainly wasn't fine yet... He had to accept their ruling... We decided to go get the Citation from McCarran and fly it...
CHUCK – Hawaii – Day 17 - Wednesday When I came down to breakfast, I was intercepted by the concierge, who handed me a large packet. I didn't open it until I had finished eating, but as soon as I did so, I got the concierge to call me a cab and went straight around to the Deputy Marshal's Station. When the Station Chief and I were sitting at a conference table in his office, and had consumed the obligatory coffee and law enforcement donuts, I re-opened the package and after I had handed...
Annie responded, “Sure thing. Charles — you can let Sarah go now.” This caused a great deal of laughter at our table. Sarah, still in my arms, said somewhat wistfully, “Thank you Charles ... for everything.” We walked to our vehicle and we quietly all got back in. Claire and K leaned their heads on me for the short trip back to the hotel. I walked the girls to their room and told them to be ready by ten am. I apologized to them for the cursing I did, at the Tavern. I got a nice kiss from...
“Yes, Annie, you did say that out loud?” Sarah said, causing Mom to blush a great deal. “Mother, from the look on her face, Kalista needs an explanation of that remark, don’t you Princess?” I asked K directly. “Actually Charles – I think I do understand, the other night I stayed up for a while going through the dictionary, and I came across a word, Or-e-gassum. Most of the definition was full of words I had to look up, but it has to do with something called explosive...
When Kathy came back over to me I asked her what he had wanted. "The National Pharmaceutical deal is closing tonight. I have to go to a meeting at ten o'clock with Jack and Mr. Bartlett. If the meeting goes well we will get the National contract." "So, you'll get your promotion then?" "Yes, if everything works out." Kathy didn't look as happy as she should if she was getting what she wanted. "Then we can start trying to make a baby?" I asked, hoping to get a reaction from...
Deep Crotch MotherThe juices in her cunt gushed. Her body throbbed. She sucked her son’s prickheatedly, rubbing her fingers across her clit and between her slippery cuntlips. DearGod! She knew it was a sin. She knew it. But she couldn’t stop playing with her son’sdear, sweet body while her crotch cried out for satisfaction.“Mommy, can you figure out what’s wrong with it?” twelve-year-old Timmy asked ashis mother bent over the fender of their ancient Ford and stared at the engine.“Quiet!” said...
