Chapter 5 - A Conjugal Visit
Kate had been back from The Island for a couple of days when she got the news from Jack. They had approved a conjugal visit for Michael, and it was happening this afternoon!
Michael was becoming difficult to manage. Jack and Sean thought a visit from Kate would help smooth things over. Jack said they had done the same for some of the other husbands that were being offered a deal. If they only knew what the deal was.
Kate was wearing her sexiest little black dress. At least it was the sexiest thing she owned from before her extravagant shopping spree, funded by Jack. She hoped she could keep Michael in the dark a while longer. It would destroy him to know what his wife and daughter had been subjected to.
Jack led Kate into the detention facility and then to the conjugal visit room. He gave her ass a smack and a squeeze just before he used the key card to open the door. They would be locked in until someone opened the door again from the outside.
"Hey, Michael, she's here," Jack announced. "I'll leave you two lovebirds alone. You have two hours." Kate entered the room and Jack pulled the door closed on his way out. The room was sparsely furnished. There was a queen-sized bed on the far wall and a sofa on the near wall. There was a bathroom with a shower, which made sense.
"Hi, Baby," Michael said. "It's so good to finally see you." He kissed her and hugged her tightly. Kate began to cry, overwhelmed by the emotions of the moment, even more than she thought she would be. On the one hand, she really had missed Michael, the man she'd loved for most of her life. She was also angry at the position that he'd put them in. She couldn't say anything about that because she was supposed to be pretending to believe him.
"You look great, Kate. And you smell so good. I've really missed you," he said.
"I've missed you too," Kate said, her voice cracking. She was trying to get it back together. "How have they been treating you in here?"
"Good... Actually, from what I hear, they are treating me a lot better in here than they are treating you out there," he said, looking crestfallen.
"What?" Kate asked, stunned. It took her a few seconds to compute that he somehow knew more than anyone had let on. "What do you mean, honey?"
"I know what's going on, Kate. I talked to Bill today. They accidentally left us together in the yard this afternoon. Shauna told him everything. I was shocked. I couldn't believe it. It's such a crazy story, but the more he talked, and the more details he knew, I started to believe him. Is it true?"
He didn't even say what 'it' was, but it was clear he knew. There was probably no way to put the cat back in the bag at this point. She steeled her resolve.
"Yes. I'm sure everything he told you is true," she acknowledged, looking down, unable to meet his gaze.
"Oh, Kate... I'm so sorry I've done this to you," Michael said. His demeanor seemed to harden. "Those mother fuckers, Kate! I promise you; I'm going to get you out of this. I'll confess and plead guilty. Tonight. As soon as you leave and are away from here, I'm going to tell them the deal is off."
"Wait, honey. Let's think about this. They threatened to charge me too because of our joint bank account. I think we're in too deep already. Besides, I won't let you spend years in prison if we can avoid it. We should stick to the plan. We can get through this and we'll figure everything out when you go free. I just hope you can see me for the woman I am to you and not as the woman they are forcing me to be this month."
"Of course, Kate. I could never think less of you. I have to admit, thinking about what they might be making you do is driving me a little crazy. A lot crazy, actually. Can we talk about that?" he asked.
This was the question Kate had most dreaded. Where to draw the line at what she should say and what she should leave out. She wanted to shield him. Total honesty would be devastating. She realized he hadn't mentioned Kristin. Maybe Shauna had the sense to leave that part out.
"I don't think that's a good idea, honey. I really think some things are best for us to never talk about. We'll just move on and go forward," she offered. He didn't seem to be convinced. She'd have to try harder.
"You know, we only have a couple of hours together," Kate reminded. "Could you please take me to bed now? I need to feel you inside of me."
"You're right, baby. I'll try to not let it get to me. I've really missed you."
"That's more like it, handsome. Let's get these clothes off and get in bed," Kate said. She walked to the side of the bed and stepped out of her heels and quickly let her dress fall to the floor. She scooted into bed quickly and got under the covers before removing her bra and panties. She playfully tossed them at Michael who was still undressing.
"Wow, you really do look great," Michael observed, getting into bed beside her. "You're tan and you seem to have a bit of a glow about you."
"I've been spending most afternoons at the pool, resting as much as possible for the late nights," she said, regretting it as fast as it came out of her mouth. She rolled onto her side, snuggling up against him, kissing his neck and lightly caressing his chest. She resisted the urge to just go down on him as that was definitely new Kate behavior. She wanted him to take the lead.
"Kate, I'm sorry, but I really don't know if I can just move past knowing what you've been forced to do with these men. Just give me some details about how it happened and what it's like so that I don't keep thinking the worst possible things imaginable. You have no idea the terrible things I've imagined them doing to you. I think we need total honesty and transparency."
"I'm not sure we should," Kate cautioned again, realizing the things he'd imagined probably weren't the half of it.
"Please, Kate. It will help me work through it."
Kate sighed, "Okay, if we have to. What do you want to know?"
"How did it start, was it Jack or Sean that blackmailed you into this?"
"It was Jack. He's the one who called me that first morning. When I was in his office, he set it up so that I had to meet him that night at the bar at the Four Seasons. He made me agree to work for him for a month, or you were going to spend all of your best years behind bars. He said that if I did agree, that we'd both go free after the month of service."
"You agreed and then what happened?"
"I didn't just agree. I cried and begged for any other way. He wouldn't budge. They have recruiting us wives down to a science. Once I caved, he took me up to the Penthouse to show me what was expected of me when I was with a VIP Gentleman."
"Did he have sex with you?"
"Uh, yes, he did."
"Did you enjoy it?"
"No."
"Did he make you come?"
"Um... Yes. I didn't want to."
"How many times?"
