  “What do you intend to do with the one you bought?” Samuel asked.

  “I’m not sure” I said.

  “The first thing I want to do is have him drive me to Mark’s house to check on Charlotte.” I replied.

  “I don’t think that’s a good idea. We don’t know anything about him and after seeing those scars on his back, I would worry for you to be alone with him.” Samuel said.

  “I’ll have Sissy with me” I said.

  “That’s not a good idea Becks” Samuel said.

  “If it will make you feel better, you can put a pistol in the wagon” I said as we saw the new slaves approaching.

  “I am Samuel. I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself so that you will know who I am. I have a lot of money invested in you and I fully expect to get my money’s worth of work from you. If you work hard, you will be treated well. If you are lazy, you will not be treated well. We do not work on Saturdays or Sundays. Saturdays are for you to maintain your cabins and families if you are given permission to have one and Sundays belong to the lord. Don’t let my father catch you working on Sundays, even in your cabins or you will be punished.”

  Samuel looked the six bucks over and then approached mine.

  “You belong to my sister. Miss Rebekah.” Samuel said, pointing to me. “You may go with her.”

  I smiled at the young buck.

  “This way” I said as I directed him to the barn. “Can you drive a stage wagon?”

  “Aint neva drove no stage befoe but I drove a freight wagon.” He replied.

  “I’m sure it can’t be that different. What’s your name?” I asked.

  “My name Gabriel” He said.

  “Do you know how to hitch the horses?” I asked.

  “Yes’um” He replied.

  “Then I will leave you to hitch the up. I’ll be back in a half hour. Have the wagon ready to go.” I said.

  “Yes’um” He said.

  I went to the house to get ready to go see Charlotte. I had Sissy go to the garden and gather some flowers. I thought they might brighten up Charlottes room.

  I returned with Sissy a while later and Gabriel had the wagon ready to go. I climbed inside as Samuel came out of the house. Gabriel was already sitting on the top with the reigns ready to go. Samuel followed me into the wagon.

  “Here” He said as he handed me a loaded pistol. “Put this under the seat in case you need it.”

  I did as he said and he stepped out, closing the door behind him. As we began moving it was obvious that Gabriel wasn’t a skilled driver. Still he wasn’t bad and was making a good effort. I showed him the way to Mark’s house. I had Sissy wait in the wagon with Gabriel. I didn’t yet fully trust him and the last thing I wanted to do was to leave my new buck alone with a stage wagon and a pistol which I had no intention of taking into the house with me.

  I took the flowers Sissy had picked and took them with me. I knocked on the door but there was no answer. The door was open so I went in. “Mark” I called out, but there was no answer. I called out again and there was still no answer. I made my way upstairs to Charlotte’s room and found her still asleep in bed. She looked pale and frail. It was obvious that she hadn’t eaten in days. I wasn’t certain if Mark was able to force water into her or not, but from the look of it he hadn’t.

  I placed the flowers on the window seal where they could catch the sunlight and went over to Charlotte. I took her hand, curious if she would respond to touch. Her hand was cold and she was unresponsive. As I caressed the back of her hand I heard voices from outside. I looked out the window and saw Mark talking to Gabriel and Sissy. I started back down the stairs and met Mark as he entered the house.

  “Hello Rebekah” Mark said when he saw me.

  “Hello. I saw Charlotte” I said.

  “She’s getting worse” Mark said.

  “Have you been able to get water into her?” I asked.

  “Very little. She can’t stay awake long enough to drink much and when I try to make her drink while she sleeps she chokes.” Mark said.

  “Is there anything I can do?” I asked.

  “Pray” Mark replied. “Is that one of Father’s new slaves?”

  “Gabriel? No he’s mine.” I replied.

  “Yours?” Mark inquired shocked.

  “Yes, I bought him yesterday.” I said.

  “Hope you didn’t pay more than five hundred” Mark said.

  “Two” I responded.

  “That’s not too bad” Mark said. “Listen, I hate to be rude, but I have a lot to do and…”

  “No, no. I understand. I need to go anyway.” I replied as I turned to leave.

  I climbed back into the wagon as Gabriel clumsily turned it to leave.

  “Back home Miss?” Gabriel asked.

  “No. I want to go to the creek.” I replied.

  I directed Gabriel around the back side of the plantation to my favorite place by the creek. He drove the old bumpy road though the uncleared patch of trees to the path that led to my favorite spot. I told him where to stop and then got out of the wagon. I looked around to make sure that Gabriel, Sissy and I were alone. It was apparent that we were. I followed Sissy down the embankment with Gabriel following behind me. Sissy and I pulled our shoes off and lifted our dresses to our knees before sitting on our the blanket that covered the sandy berm and dunking our feet into the cool water. I glanced over and saw Gabriel just standing there as if he didn’t know what was expected of him.

  “Make yourself comfortable. We will be here for a while.” I told him.

  “Yes’um” He said before sitting on a stump near the water’s edge.

  “I saw the scars on your back” I said to Gabriel. “Tell me why you got them”

  “I gots’em cause I runned away” Gabriel said.

  “You like to run away often?” I asked.

  “Only if I gots a reason too” Gabriel replied.

  “What was your reason for running away?” I asked.

  “My other masa aint no good. When my daddy died he sole my momma and sister. He say he had ta buy another buck and needed money to replace daddy. So he sell dem to help pay for da new field hand.” Gabriel said.

  “So you left?” I asked.

  “Yes’um” Gabriel replied. I aint got no family and wutten no reason fo me to say so I left.”

  “Well, I think you’ll like it here. I don’t have any need for a field hand so your duties are pretty much whatever I decide they are from day to day.” I said.

  “Yes’um, I reckon I likes dat better dan da field.” Gabriel replied.

  “I may have other tasks for you too. I want to make sure that you’ll do what I say.” I said as Sissy cut her eyes over to me.

  “Yes’um, I don’t reckon I fines a better place dan dis un” Gabriel said.

  “Take off your shirt, I’d like to get a closer look at those scars” I said as I stood up and walked across the sandy berm to where Gabriel was sitting. He stood up and hesitantly removed his shirt. I walked behind him and looked closely at his scars. There were about twenty distinct marks and maybe ten that were very faded.

  “You’ve been whipped more than once” I said as I ran my hand over his back, lightly feeling the healed skin.

  “Yes’um” He said. “When I was a boy I stole a pie from the main house. My ole masa son seen me and had me whipped. But day only hit me ten times and not hard as day hit grown niggas.”

  “Still” I said as I gently ran my fingers across his skin again. “I prefer methods other than the whip.”

  “Dats good to hear” Gabriel replied.

  “Take off your pants” I said.

  “Miss?” He replied. Shocked that I would say such a thing.

  “I want to make sure that the scars on your back are the only marks you have.” I responded as I looked over at Sissy who’s eyes had grown to the size of saucers.

  “I promise the only scare I has is da ones on my back.” Gabriel said.

  “I want
to see for myself. Take off your pants” I demanded.

  “Yes’um” Gabriel said as he looked over at Sissy as if to silently ask if I was serious.

  Slowly Gabriel untied the string that he was wearing as a belt and removed the old brown fabric that cover him from the waist down. Gabriel wasn’t wearing anything beneath his pants and my attention was immediately drawn to his masculinity as his pants fell to the ground. His penis was much larger than I had anticipated, though it was still not as large as Leon’s. Gabriel’s diddles hung very low and interested me immensely. I look into Gabriel’s eyes as I extended my hand outward, taking his testicles into my hand. I squeezed them gently and sort of rolled them around in my hand as I felt his soft cock which had hung over my wrist began to get harder. Gabriel never blinked as he looked back into my eyes as if he did not believe what I was doing. I released his balls and slowly ran my hand upward along the bottom of his long shaft. I grabbed it about midway and gave it a gently squeeze. I heard Gabriel give a soft grunt and his rod grew much harder at my touch. Gabriel finally broke eye contact as he looked over at Sissy again. Curious as to what Sissy was doing, I turned and looked too. I saw Sissy watching what I was doing intently, as if she might have suspected that it were a dream. I quickly turned my attention back to Gabriel only I did not return my gaze to his eyes. Instead I focused on the hard muscle that I held in my hand. I slid my hand down on his shaft but did not loosen my grasp. His foreskin slid along his shaft exposing the purple tip of his manhood.

  “Have you ever been with a woman?” I asked.

  “No ma’am” Gabriel replied.

  “Good” I whispered.

  I released Gabriel’s shaft and turned, facing Sissy for a moment. I turned back around and Saw Gabriel reaching down to pull up his pants.

  “I haven’t told you to get dressed” I said.

  “Sorry miss, I thought you were finished with me.” Gabriel replied.

  I began unbuttoning the dress that I was wearing. I slid my arms from the sleeves and saw that Gabriel seemed fascinated by what I was doing. I pulled the dress down and stepped out of it before handing it to Sissy to keep it off of the ground. I removed the undergarments that covered my breasts and took Gabriel’s hand. I placed his right hand on my left breast. I could feel his breathing increasing to the point that it almost sounded like panting. I put my hand on his chest and felt his heart was racing so fast that I could not count the beats.

  “Are you afraid of me?” I asked.

  “No ma’am. I’s fraid of what gonna happen if somebody fine out bout this!” Gabriel said.

  “I guess we better make sure no one finds out then.” I replied as I reached down and took Gabriel’s manly rod into my hand once more.

  Gabriel began rubbing his thumb across my hard nipple.

  “Kiss it” I commanded.

  Gabriel did as he was told and quickly put his mouth on my pale white tit. Gabriel didn’t have to be told to suckle them. I guess that was instinct. He began sucking my nipple and rolling his tongue around the darker skin that surrounded my erect bump.

  I could feel his cock throbbing in my hand. I slowly began sliding my hand up and down his rod. I watched as the tip of his penis appeared to be playing peek-a-book with me, hiding behind his foreskin and then exposing itself again. I pulled away from Gabriel and walked passed Sissy to the blanket that was spread out on the sand berm. I removed my remaining clothes and handed them to Sissy who had been watching everything that I was doing in amazement. I stood there for a moment, nude and totally exposed to the elements. I don’t think I’d even been nude outside before and it felt very freeing, though I was a little nervous as Gabriel gazed at the patch of hair that covered my crotch. I was careful to keep my legs together, at least for the moment. Gabriel’s soldier was standing at full attention and from my distance I could see it’s full size. It was not the length that I was worried about, but the girth of his large manly muscle. I laid down on the blanket and motioned for Gabriel to come to me.

  “You know what to do” I said.

  “You show bout dis miss?” Gabriel asked.

  “Yes” I replied.

  Gabriel got down on his knees and climbed in between my legs. I could feel the tip of his cock against my skin and he blindly moved it around until it reached the entrance of my feminine cave. I almost stopped him when I felt the large purple head slowly penetrate my hole. The thought of his large black snake breaking my virginity frightened me a little. But it was too late. With one swift push Gabriel had enterd me beyond my innocence. A sharp pain surged through my body as my virginity left me forever and a discomfort grew deem inside me as my tender woman parts stretched to accommodate Gabriel’s massive size. He felt much larger than he looked.

  I let out a few grunts as he began to slide in and out of me. His sweat covered his black body in the summer heat. I looked and saw Sissy had climbed part way up the embankment and appeared to be watching out for anyone who might happen across us. There was almost never anyone in this spot, but I didn’t want the occasional slave wandering across us and seeing what we were doing.

  The sensation of Gabriel filling me with his large self was more intense than I had anticipated. His kinky pubic hair rubbed vigorously against my hard pink love bead and I completely relaxed and gave myself to him. I could feel his large balls slapping against my ass as his pace quickened. Harder and harder he pushed himself into my stretched opening. Suddenly and without warning I felt the most intense and massive orgasm begin moving from my vagina. I crawled into my stomach and ass and then spread to the rest of my body. Wave after wave of orgasmic pleasure covered every inch of me. It was immense and lasted for what seemed like an eternity. As it weakened and began to subside Gabriel pushed deeply into me. I felt his cock pulsating and jumping inside me. I knew immediately that he’d released his seed inside me, which concerned me a bit. I’d neglected to tell him to remove himself as he had his orgasm. No matter, the deed was done.

  Gabriel removed his black rod from my pale white body. I used my handkerchief to wipe out as much of his seed as I could. I quickly called for Sissy to bring my clothes as Gabriel returned to his clothes.

  “Dis okay miss?” He asked before dressing himself.

  “Yes, by all means” I said.

  Gabriel was dressed in just a moment. Sissy returned with my clothes and helped me dress myself while Gabriel kept watch.

  “Should I assume that I don’t need to tell you to keep this to yourself.” I asked Gabriel.

  “No ma’am. I knows what would happen if I tells” Gabriel said.

  I had Gabriel return Sissy and I to the house. I told him that he could take the rest of the day off but that he should be at the house at daybreak the next day.

  When I returned home I found Luke sitting on the porch.

  “Charlotte’s awake” He said.

  “That’s wonderful” I replied. “I must go see her first thing tomorrow.”

  I had dinner with Father, John and Luke. Samuel had taken food to Mark and stayed to have dinner with him and discuss some plantation issues with him. I went to sleep that night completely satisfied.

  The next morning I went down stairs to find father upset. Samuel said that Tom was missing. Samuel was certain that he’d returned from the field the previous day, but now he was missing.

  “He wouldn’t run away.” Samuel said.

  “Just the same, we should alert the slave catchers” Father said.

  Samuel went to alert the authorities, John went to talk to Anny and I went to talk to Bea who was still in the kitchen.

  “Hey, you know anything about Tom?” I asked.

  “Only dat he was gone dis morning when ever body got up.” Bea said.

  “He was there last night?” I asked.

  “Yeah. I seen him when he went in his cabin.” Bea said. “It aint like him to just run off.”

  I decided it was best to stay out of the men’s way, so I had Gabriel hitch up the horses so I could go se
e Charlotte. I asked Sissy to stay behind and listen out to see what was going on with Tom.

  When I arrived at Mark’s house, he was waiting on the porch.

  “I thought you were father” Mark said to as I stepped out of the carriage.

  “Sorry to disappoint you” I replied.

  “You’re not a disappointment sister. Do you know what’s going on with the runaway slave?” he asked.

  “I don’t think he ran away.” I replied.

  “Why do you think that?” He asked.

  “He’s old to begin with. I spoke with Bea, she said that he was in his cabin when she went to sleep and gone the next morning.” I said.

  “That only means that he waited until the middle of the night to run away.” Mark said.

  “Somehow I just don’t think he’d run away like that. He left his daughter and…”

  “His daughter is grown and ready to start her own family from what I’ve heard.” Mark interrupted.

  “Sorry, I just don’t see it” I said.

  “If he didn’t run away then the slave catchers won’t find him then.” Mark replied.

  “If Charlotte awake?” I asked, making it a point to change the subject.

  “No, she’s resting. She was up for most of the night.” Mark said.

  “If she sick?” I asked.

  “No, but she’s been asleep for almost a week. I expect she will be up later today.” Mark replied.

  “Well tell her I stopped by and hope she feels better soon.” I said.

  Mark said she ate a little and drank water until she made herself sick. She was still immobile because of her broken bones and in a lot of pain, but at least she was awake. I didn’t linger at Mark’s house. I was eager to return home and delve into the slave drama. But when I arrived I found the slaves working in the field as if nothing was wrong. Sissy said that after I left, Samuel took the slaves into the field and hadn’t even bothered to follow up on Tom’s disappearance and Anny didn’t seem to know anything about it, but didn’t seem very upset that her father was missing.

  About a week went by. With Tom missing, Leon took advantage and asked Samuel for permission to jump the broom with Anny. Samuel discussed it with father who agreed to it. I knew that if Tom did return, there would be hell for Leon to pay. Unfortunately, Tom would not be returning.
