Thanks for all your comments on the first chapter. It was meant to be the beginning of a series titled 'The Sins of Solomon' but I changed my mind at the last minute and wrote a one off story. However I've been encouraged to continue so here goes...
I couldn't get Priscilla out of my mind. Our moment of passion last night in the privacy of my office kept replaying in my mind like a DVD plate on loop, reliving memories of her lush, fragile, yet strong body rocking in unison to mine.
I could still hear her moans, could still taste her sweat and her spit and I could still smell her juices. I could still remember the look in her eyes when I told her she had finally gotten the job, the relief and gratitude that snapped her resolve and reduced her to tears.
This was a woman who was used to rejection, used to being treated like a whore and could only hold her head high whenever she was subjected to painful humiliation as she fought to keep her head and that of her child above the cruel waters of life.
As she had walked into my office for an interview she knew she had no hope of passing, she knew her only chance of scaling through was if the employer wanted to have sex with her. As she sat across the desk from me she knew I was that kind of employer, the kind that would take advantage of her because of her lack of education and skills.
Yes I did take advantage of her. I'm a man and we men love having sex with willing women. It doesn't make me a bad person; it's just how we were created. Sex was the price she paid for not having enough credentials and I was kind enough to give her the job despite knowing that doing so would put me at a disadvantage. I my not a good guy? It doesn't mean Priscilla is suddenly my sex slave. It just means she has a duty to perform.
I know that because I committed adultery (yes, I know it is adultery and I'm not going to justify it) you would think I'm a bad husband. I am not a bad husband. I love my wife dearly and always will. The problem with wives is that they never seem to understand how precarious their situation is. A man marries a woman hoping she won't change but of course she does. She turns from this insanely, hot, sweet dream girl you've been dating to this psycho-aggressive control freak who watches your every move. My personal advice to women? Don't worry about where your hubby's at. Just worry that he comes home. If he takes you as his place of solace then he'll be back. But if he regards you with the same affection as Hell on Earth then don't hold your breath.
My wife woke up this morning in a very bad mood. I was still horny from last night and I badly wanted to have sex. I was caressing her gently before she turned on me and berated me like I was a sexual deviant or something.
"For fuck's sake!" she hissed, "Can't you keep your hands to yourself?"
This barb really cut me deep and the deep reserves of my temper began to boil. I hate getting angry. When I get angry I become irrational and it becomes more than likely that I would say or do something I might regret later.
"What's that supposed to mean?" I retorted angrily, "I'm I married to a fucking corpse or what?"
I regretted the words as they tumbled out of my mouth. The shock on her face immediately made me feel guilty.
"Is that what you take me for? You wanted a horny slut for a wife and instead got a stiff?"
