“I…I…would…ah, would you like a drink? I…ah, I can make us a couple martinis,” I finally stammered.
“Later,” he said, closing the gap between us. It was as if my flesh was on fire as he took ahold of my upper arms and pulled me into an embrace. I looked into those piercing blue eyes and felt like I was going to explode with excitement.
By now my heart was racing, my pulse quickened. My flesh tingled from every nerve in my body sparking with jolts of passion. Together our lips met. Our tongues teased and danced with one another’s. I was beginning to feel light headed; the room started to spin, my panties were soaked with…
Wait, they weren’t soaked. They weren’t even damp. That was odd, my panties always got wet from just thinking of Stoney. Here I was kissing him, laying the foundation for a night of intense, animalistic, no holds barred fucking and I was dry as a bone down there. How was that possible?
That’s when I heard their voices echoing in my head, “I love you more.” I could see their image plain as day. My husband and daughter standing there, telling me they loved me more while I kissed another man.
It was like being struck by lightning. My body wasn’t reacting to the excitement or the anticipation of having sex with Stoney, it was reacting to the realization of it. My nerves weren’t on fire from passion, they were telling me what a fool I was being. My panties weren’t wet because fantasy is one thing but cheating is unforgivable. I was about to make the biggest mistake of my life—THAT’S what my body was telling me.
I quickly opened my eyes and pushed my hands against Stoney’s chest while I pulled my lips from his. I pushed so hard he had to take a step back to catch himself. I could tell from his face that he was very confused.
“What’s the matter?”
“I can’t do this, Stoney. I don’t know what I was thinking.”
“Thinking? You’ve been fantasizing about this for months. You told me yourself. This is something we both want. You’re just nervous. Come on, let’s have that drink. It’ll take the edge off. We’ll take things a little slower, that’s all. I plan to give you a night you’ll never forget.”
“Stoney—no; I mean it! I can’t do this. I can’t do it to my husband. I can’t do it to my daughter.”
“You’re not doing anything to them. They’ll never know. I was extremely careful to make sure nobody saw me. It’s just you and me, Langley. No one else is ever going to know.”
“I’d know, Stoney, I’d know. I’d never be able to look Nelson in the face again. I’m so damned ashamed of myself for letting it go this far.” I could feel my eyes welling up as I sat on the edge of the bed. My hands were shaking from thinking how close I came to betraying my husband. “Don’t you love your wife? Don’t…”
“Yes, of course I do. I told you I love her. That’s why I’m so damned careful. But what she doesn’t know won’t hurt her.”
“Wrong, it does hurt her because you lose a little more respect for her every time you do it with somebody else-you have to.”
“Oh that’s bullshit, Langley, and you know it. Just because I knock off a strange piece once in a while doesn’t mean I don’t love or respect my wife, that’s nonsense.”
