Chapter 1: Mary
I don't know what it is with me, but I have a thing for married women. Put me in a room full of good-looking women with one of them being married and I'll home in on her every time. She wouldn't even have to be the best looking woman in the room, it wouldn't matter at all. I'd still be drawn to her like iron filings to a magnet.

I hadn't been in my new job one full day when I saw a fantastic, tight little ass. It was on a woman who was bent at the waist struggling with a stuck file drawer. I had promised myself that I was going to be a good boy at this new job and stay away from the ladies for at least long enough to get my feet on the ground, but something drew me to this one and I hurried over to help her out. When I got to her I saw that my internal radar was on the money again; the woman had wedding rings on her left hand. I got the drawer open for her and introduced myself.
I found out that her name was Sonia and that she had been with the company almost a year. She asked me if I had met many of the other people in the office I said no and then she told me that they all usually stopped for a drink after work. She suggested that if I stopped with them that night I could meet and get to know almost everyone at once. I told her that sounded like a good idea and she gave me the name of the place and told me how to get there.
There were four men and five women from the company at the bar when I got there. I was introduced and I ordered a drink and settled in to meet my new co-workers. They seemed like a pretty decent bunch, but what registered most with me was that three of the women, including Sonia were married.
As is the case in almost every work place there is always one guy who settles in next to you and starts to give you the low down on everybody. I found out that I should never, not ever, loan money to John or bet on anything with Harry.
"He has all of these legitimate sounding sucker bets and he loves to catch people with them."
I learned that Steve was an all right guy away from work, but at work was a total asshole with a penchant for taking credit for the work of others.
"Well, that leaves you Josh, among the men that is. What is the skinny on you?"
"Ole Josh is just an all around nice guy although I have been told that I drink a tad too much."
"Okay, that covers the guys here, what about the ladies?"
"I'd better tell you about Alice first since she will be the first to leave. She's engaged to be married to a stock broker and I sure hope that either the guy is very open minded or Alice is just trying to sow her wild oats before walking down the aisle."
"A touch on the easy side?"
"Very. There she goes now" and he pointed and I saw Alice and Steve heading for the parking lot.
"If Steve isn't enough for her she'll be back."
"Back seat romance?"
"Yup."
I filed Alice away for the future - after she got married.
"What's the book on the redhead with the big tits?"
"That's Betsy. Married, three kids, likes to tease, but kisses under the mistletoe at the company Christmas party is as far as she goes."
No, I thought, I don't want to wait ten months just to get a kiss, but I did like her tits. I figured that Betsy would be the first one I would go after.
"What about the two blondes that look like twins?"
"The one with glasses is Mary and she's single. Most everybody thinks she is a lez. The other one is Matty and she's married, two kids, and as far as anyone knows she is a straight arrow. Last, but by no means least, there is sexy Sonia. Just recently married and the sweetest girl you would ever want to know. Now, what's your story?"
"Not much to tell. Single, never married, and I have a hard time holding a job."
"Why is that?"
"I've lost my last three jobs due to outraged and jealous husbands and boyfriends. I just can't seem to leave their ladies alone. I've promised myself it is going to be different here."
That was just so much bullshit of course, but if Josh was so open with me he would probably tell the others what he'd gotten from me and it would hurt to 'prime the pump' for the ladies.
+++++
Sonia was the one I really wanted, but being newly married it would take too much time - time that would be better spent on Matty or Betsy. Apparently Josh wasted no time in spreading the word about me. The first sign that he had came three days later when everyone from work stopped for drinks again. Alice came up to me, "Hey new guy, how about a dance?"
"Can't turn down a pretty lady, now can I?"
We moved out onto the floor and she said, "The grapevine says that you are a bit of a "bad boy."
"From what I've seen in here you are my female counterpart."
"Does that give you any ideas?"
"Not really. I've promised myself that I'm going to reform. I'm not going to lose this job for the same reason that I lost the last three."
"I heard that it was because of jealous and irate husbands and boyfriends."
"No, not the boyfriends, although they did squawk some, it was the husbands. Imagine getting mad just because your wife had an affair with another man. It just boggles the mind."
"I don't get how it could cost you your job? Unless you were doing them on their desks during office hours."
"The first one was because one of the ladies was the bosses wife. The next two were because I was a "disruptive influence in the work place." What happened at one was a couple of husbands compared notes at the company Christmas party, arrived at the same conclusion, and decided to pay me a visit. The second one was basically the same only he came after me in the office during working hours."
"Poor baby. They hurt you bad?"
"I survived but the jobs didn't."
"So you are going to stay away from the married women, but the single girls are fair game, right?"
"Mostly."
"I'm single."
"Yes, but you are also engaged to be married. I've promised myself no girls unless they are single and don't have a relationship with another man."
"You might want to reconsider that position. I give great head and have a nice, tight ass."
"I'll keep that in mind if I ever fall off the wagon."
She gave me a smile and a look that said, "We'll see about that."
+++++
I was surprised at what happened next. The following day I was sitting in the break room eating lunch when Sonia came up and asked me if she could join me. I motioned to the chair opposite and she sat down.
"Did you know that you are the subject of almost every conversation in this place today?"
"No I wasn't. What is it all about?"
"You said no to Alice. No guy has ever said no to Alice."
"She just isn't my type."
"Oh? And just what is your type?"
I had the feeling that though just recently married and probably not interested in me she was expecting me to flatter her by saying, "Some one like you." Instead I said, "Some one like Betsy or Matty."
