Part I: The Discovery
My wife and I had a very honest relationship with nothing hidden from the beginning. To an extent, that began as playful conversation. Would I really let her read my email anytime? Sure, why not. What about her?
It became a matter taken for granted by us both. She would log into my accounts to check on bills or track our business, and I'd log into hers to chat with the in-laws from time to time. Far from a matter of mistrust or invasive prying, it was simply a matter of actual trust and convenience.
So, imagine my surprise when one day I found a pic of a fat cock in her main inbox.
At first, I figured it was a wrong email; a matter of private laughter that might embarrass a friend. Once our contact lists were checked, that was clearly not the case. Before searching for other emails from the same address, I wonder if I should.
Of course I should! After all, she's my wife and it's not like she didn't know I'd see it sooner or later. Were anything really wrong, she'd have made a new account to hide it all.
My search brought back some interesting results.
"lol ya, i'd like that," she wrote in the first result I saw. Not encouraging, but better fix the ordering to "ascend by date" to see this from the beginning. Two months ago... Hmm...
"This is my email. Are you sure you can do this?" His email this time. As it turns out, from the first week or so of exchanges, he was her coworker. An apparent "shy guy" with an Internet crush, he sought her help deciding which pics he should send his lude sweetheart.
Sure. I believed him. Not really, but she did.
"ya ok," she wrote back with a little blushing emoticon. Cute. So, it went back and forth first with clothed pics of him and then various stages of nudity. For each batch of pics, she would reply with which she liked best. This guy was slick!
Okay. Understood. Stay calm... Is there anything to worry about?
My snooping may have been permitted, but it still felt like snooping. Never once did she indicate that she thought I would object, which was a flattering compliment to my understanding. Since that made me feel like I shouldn't worry too-too much, I scanned quickly.
Then I saw it...
Her bare cooter, gleaming wet and puffy with excitement. I looked at the date. No, we had not done anything that night. Odd, so... What happened?
The previous email explained it all. He played up the Internet "shy guy" even to the point of being upset that his cyber sex plaything, as it turned out, was only "leading him on". My, isn't that a shocker?
Of course, Liz (my wife) is a sweetheart of epic proportions. When somebody hurts, she responds by making them feel better. Maybe she's a little naive too.
"how bout this," she wrote in the improper language she only types when excited. "now u tell me what u think!" Come to think of it, she had written that way all along. She was getting off on this!
Calm down. Calm down.
It's just a little Internet flirting and no worse really that viewing porn, which of course all men do. Sure, she was actually chatting whereas porn involves only images and video of people who can't interact, but the way she may see it, most porn sites have social components now so you can chat.
Besides, we had roughly been together five years by that point, and as my work picked up things cooled off in our bed. Maybe she just felt the need for a little excitement. I almost closed the browser when I remembered, oh yeah! He's her coworker, isn't he? Mike. I've met him, and he did look at her like he wanted her soft pink pussy for dessert.
Now my blood was boiling, but I heard a lock in the door. I scrambled to close the browser, and took a deep, cleansing breath.
She could not know I had discovered this. If she found out, and there was anything to worry about, then they would only cover their tracks better.
I had to play it smart.
"Hi honey! I'm back!" She was beaming, as usual(always so happy), and I felt relief.
"Hi hon', how was work?" I knew she was happy with me. There was nothing to worry about.
"It's like an oven out there."
The next week was uneventful.

Part II: The Plan
Each day, I got home before her, and each day I checked on her inbox and studied past correspondence for insights. So far, I had figured out that most of their emails were traded while I work. That explained how I never noticed!
However, things had been quiet until one day following a tired, migraine-addled night when I denied her sex. It wasn't so much that I didn't want it (hey, it's always good with her -- she's tight and knows how to use what she's got!)... My head was just in too much pain to perform.
"u there?" She started. Now, the cool thing here is that I saw this happen live from the first time the Sent folder's little (0) became a (1).
"Yeah. I was looking at you during the meeting." What did that mean?
"i saw u look under the table." Wait...!!!
"That pussy looked so good, I want to taste it!" Okay, now this was a little different! It's one thing to see a pic of my wife's horny critter, but to look at it bare and live is something else.
"mean it?" My heart pounded. My head spun. It hurt. Honestly, it hurt bad. For years I had the perfect wife, and here she was one very serious step closer to committing adultery. I didn't know what to do!
"Yeah. Today. After work."
"where?"
"Where do you want it, sexy?" It wasn't even thirty seconds later that my cell phone rang. I knew before glancing that it would be her. Please, Liz, back out before it's too late! You're about to cross a bridge you can't backtrack over.
"Hello?"
"Hi, honey! What are you doing?"
I had to think of something fast! She couldn't know that I was onto her. If she went through with this, then I had to know for sure that it happened, "I'm getting these reports done for inventory, and... Oh, yeah! I almost forgot..." Matter of fact, this was my chance to know for sure if she would go through with it.
"What?" She sounded nervous and distant, as if she was either weighing the option to follow through or working out how to. I still am not entirely sure which it really was.
"I'm going to have to stay late, hon, these reports have to be in before corporate shows up this weekend, and I..."
"It's okay!" Uh-huh. She never, not once in five years, ever just let me stay late at work without at least objecting.
Okay, self, stay calm... "Yeah.. uhh..." Damn it! I was awash in emotion. Confusion. Guilt at having caught her the way I did. Fear. Anger. Some of it came out in my voice.
"Is something wrong?" Suddenly, she didn't sound so distant. I watched as her sent folder was emptied suddenly. So close to blowing this...
"Yeah, I... Uhh... Here it is! I'm sorry, I just thought I found a big problem, but turns out the night shift's waste report was just in the wrong place." Skip a beat. One. Two. "Hon, this inventory is going to kill me."
"You can do it, baby, you know that." Baby? The only time she called me baby is when she wanted something. She wanted me to stay late. All I had to do was reel this in.
"Look, I have to go. This has to get done. Was there something you needed, maybe wanted me to pick up?"
"No, honey, I just wanted to say your ass is MINE when I get home, but since you won't be there..."
"Maybe when I get in?"
"Definitely." We exchanged our expressions of love, and hung up. In a few moments, the trap was laid and sprung; they planned to meet up at our house. I felt a little bit triumphant, but the wash of emotions was having an effect on my stomach. The clock. A quarter to three. No time to think.

Part III: The Act
My car carefully hidden behind a nearby church, the computer powered down, and all evidence of my being home hidden or cleaned up, I proceeded up stairs to take up post in our bedroom's closet. Cliche', I know, but then it's a cliche because it works. Just in case, I had a plan.
Our house was covered, every square foot but the bathrooms and master bedroom, by webcams I installed myself. On my lap in the closet, I booted up a tablet computer, verified that all cameras were up and broadcasting, and lit a smoke. My last one for the night, perhaps.
As it turns out, there had been less time than I thought. Just as I disabled the tablet's sound, I saw the front door crack open in one little box on screen. Smart gal. She had rushed home ahead of him to be sure it was safe.
