In the previous chapter, my lovely, sexy wife had, after a few drinks, confessed to the affair with Steven, our neighbor. I would have flipped out at her confessions had it not been for the fact that I had been aware of the tryst for a while and over time, started accepting it. The relationship with my wife, Maureen had continued to be good and I felt that we were still close despite her affair, but things had somewhat changed over time in the bedroom. Regular sex had become less frequent, but she had become a little more adventurous in some ways. She seemed to enjoy using the strap-on more frequently and had begun using feminine terms toward me while she was wearing the strap-on. She would say things like, "Be a good girl and let me watch you suck it," or, "You like it when I fill your pussy, don't you sweetie?" There were even times when she would want me to be the one wearing lingerie. Even though I knew that this new behavior was influenced by Steven, I was secretly (or maybe not so secretly) turned on by these games.
There were times when I would feel humiliated when I thought about Maureen talking to Steven. I had no doubt that she would be open to him about our relationship. The fact that some of the kinkier things seem to have started during their affair made me wonder how much of the new sexuality Maureen was exhibiting was inspired by him.
So here I was, sitting in front of my wife, having just watched a video that she had made with him. She was wearing only a sheer black robe and the collar that marked her as belonging to another man. The images of her cumming while he fucked her replayed in my head. I understood why the affair was on-going because I had never been able to make her cum from penetration alone. Although I was a little jealous about it, I was also happy that she was able to experience sex in such a way.
"Honey," she said getting back on her knees and putting her head in my lap, "are you really okay with this? I mean, really okay?" Earlier in the evening, she was a little more confident but now she seemed to be realizing that a lot had been exposed in the last hour.
I stroked her hair. "I was upset when I first suspected months ago but yes, I am okay with this now," I told her.
She looked up at me seeming excitedly animated. "Oh good. I was so worried that once you found out that I would have to stop seeing him."
"That was an option?" I asked.
"Well...yes. I saw tonight ending in one of three ways. You would kick me out or leave, you would demand that I end it, or you would be understanding and...," she paused, unable to find the right words. "But oh my god, I can't wait to tell him," she said practically giddy. She stood up and immediately her knees buckled. I caught her before she fell, and she giggled. "Think I might have had too much to drink," she said. She had put away more than half the bottle of wine and since she was not a drinker, she was well past her limit.
"Let's get you to bed," I suggested. "Tomorrow is another day and I think you might need to sleep this off." I walked her to the bedroom. If she had not just given me a blowjob, I would have seriously considered taking advantage of her but, being sated for the time being, I felt it best to turn in for the night. I helped her take off the robe and get into bed. While she adjusted the pillows, I went to the kitchen to get a couple glasses of water and some aspirin. I figured she would need some water now and might need something when she woke up to ward off any hangover. When I got back to the bedroom, I saw that she was passed out. Again, I had a passing thought of taking advantage but quickly decided against it. She did look hot, being completely nude except the collar that she had not removed. There was part of me that was angry that my wife, was in out marriage bed, wearing the very collar showing her willing submission to another man. That feeling of anger and jealousy was fleeting as the erotic part of me started envisioning her with him and finding that it aroused me.
I pulled the sheets up to cover her and tuck her in when her phone vibrated with a text message. She did not stir. I picked it up and looked at the message. It was from Steve. It said, "That is wonderful. I look forward to it. Do you want to come over now?" I scrolled down to see that he was responding to a message she had sent a few minutes before saying, "Great news Sir. I told him. He knows and is good. I can't wait!"
I looked at the message and was wondering. "Can't wait?" for what exactly? "Looking forward to it" to what? "Sir?" I looked at her again and she was still passed out, breathing deeply and rhythmically. I considered for a moment and decided that I would respond. As I made this decision, I felt a twinge of shame that I was typing a message to my wife's lover and not feeling confrontational. I typed, "This is Dan. Maureen fell asleep." I hit send.
A moment later, he wrote back, "Hey Dan. Asleep huh? Let's talk. Would you like to come over?"
I thought about it for a minute. Am I really considering going to see my wife's lover? I am, and I am surprisingly okay with it... even excited about it. Maybe it would be good to talk with him alone, just two guys. "Be there in a few minutes," I hit send.
As I get dressed, I find myself both nervous and excited. The night has been replaying through my head and I wonder just how much Maureen has told him about me. It was one thing talking to Steven as just another neighbor but something very different when very private aspects of my sexuality and known by him. I get my shoes on and look at Maureen. She will be out cold all night.
A minute later, I am at Steven's door. I knock and after a moment, he opens it. He smiles broadly and invites me in. He walks to the kitchen, inviting me to follow. He is wearing a tee-shirt and boxers. Normally I would have expected him to excuse himself to put on some clothes but there was nothing normal about this evening and well, he seemed comfortable around me.
"Would you like something to drink?" he offers opening the refrigerator.
I take a seat on one of the bar chairs at the kitchen island. "Water would be good," I say. He pulls out a bottle of water, hands it to me, and takes one for himself. Leaning on the counter, he opens his and takes a drink. I can't help but look at him in a new way. I find myself checking him out as my wife's sexual partner. For the first time, I am looking at his features compared to me. He is about 4 inches taller than I am and has about 20 pounds of muscle more than I had. I saw what my wife, or any woman, would be attracted to. He has a good body and is comfortable in his own skin. I briefly glance down at his package and feel a twinge of excitement. Not just because I know that my wife is very familiar him but because of the expectation that Maureen has of watching me and him together. She had, after all, agreed to making a sex video in exchange for him agreeing be with me. I was still not 100 percent clear on what that meant. Earlier in the evening Maureen had mentioned her interest in my having sex with Steven and him "showing me what a real man is like". Did that mean a threesome? Did she want me to watch? Did she want to watch him suck me or me suck him?
"So... now that it's out in the open now, Dan," he says, "how do you feel about it?"
"Honestly, I had some mixed emotions at first," I tell him, "but I think that I am not nearly as jealous as I think I should be given the circumstances. She seems to be happier and I don't see her as being unhappy with me. So as non-traditional as it might seem, I think I am good with choices."
"Good," he says, "Maureen was worried and, to be honest, so was I. We both thought it was time and that it would work out but when it comes to emotions, we could not be completely sure. Her choices affect you and you have choices too."
