This is a recollection of a time when I found myself enlisted into being the one to help a coworker cuckold her husband. This wasn't something I set out to do, it just kind of unfolded.  Probably not to everyone's tastes, but I will admit that I had fantasies of something similar back when I was married.
Her name was Jody. She was a coworker in my office, very attractive, but not in a way that drew much attention. She had more of that fresh faced girl next door look with a very nice figure, she always dressed stylishly and was well put together, but her manner had pretty much been all business.
I'm Dave, I was 45 at the time, and she was around 30 I'd guess. Jody was married while I had been divorced from my wife for a couple of years. Jody and I were on the same level and we had occasion to work together on projects from time to time, so I had gotten to know her as an extremely intelligent, capable, and funny girl. She appeared to be madly in love with her husband, Eric. He sounded like a great guy.
The first inkling was when we were at the office late one evening, putting some finishing touches on a client presentation for the next day.  She got a phone call from Eric. Not unusual but I could tell there was some tension there, probably from her working late - this was something I was all too familiar with from my married days. As she spoke I stepped out of the room to give her a bit of privacy.
When I returned, we got back to working on the presentation but she was obviously distracted. "Everything OK at home?" I ventured.
"Yeah, Eric is just being a jerk." She replied.
"My ex used to get grumpy too when I had to put in the long hours, comes with the territory,"Â I responded.
We got pulled back into our project and were there another couple of hours before calling it a night. She had received a couple more calls from Eric, he was obviously checking up on her.
It was after dark so I walked out with her to her car.
"He thinks I'm up here having fun." Jody shared as we walked, obviously irritated. She was put out with him, and a bit embarrassed I think.
"You can't blame him for wanting his beautiful wife at home with him" I replied, trying to make her feel better. I felt her start at my choice of words.
"Damn!" I thought to myself, I really shouldn't have said that, that was the kind of statement that could cause trouble.
As we got to her car she said, "Thanks Dave, you're sweet."Â Â Then, quick as a flash she stepped up on her toes and kissed me on my cheek. By the time the action had sunk in she had her car door open and was slipping inside.
She gave me a big smile and a wink as she drove off. I imagine I must have been standing there a bit dumbfounded with a stupid look on my face.
I sat in my car re-living that moment. Geez, I was feeling foolish, probably making too much out of it, but god, something about that moment felt really nice. I touched my face where she had kissed. I could still feel her hand on my arm where she steadied herself. My heart was racing! I felt like I was a teenager.
Of course the next day, it was like nothing had happened. She was back to her usual self. What had I expected? Just my imagination running wild. I will confess I found myself watching her a little more closely. Jody really was an attractive woman!
It was maybe 3 weeks later when we were putting another project together for the bigwigs. We again were working late trying to meet a deadline. It was a very complicated presentation and we had a hell of a lot of work to do. It was about 8 O'clock when our boss stepped in, checking on the project as he left the office. He was a great guy to work for, the kind of guy you really wanted to do your best for.
He felt bad about our having to stay I guess, because he brought us a freshly corked bottle of wine. "Here you go, you might as well have this since it looks like you'll be here for a bit yet." He poured two glasses as we worked and said good night, "lock up when you leave, looks like you two are the last ones here.
"It was after 9 when we were putting the finishing touches on our work for the night, by then the wine was finished, and that glow you get from a couple of glasses of wine was in Jody's eyes. That was when her husband Eric called.
The conversation sounded pleasant enough from the end I was hearing. I was consciously NOT looking at those incredible legs as she was sitting there in the conference room chair, her shoes off, her feet tucked up underneath her. She had the last of the wine in her hand as she spoke quietly to him..
After she hung up, she just looked at me for a second before I realized and looked up. "Eric just asked if I'm having an affair with you." she drops, just like that.
"What?!" I started to protest, flustered, beginning to mutter something further.
"Don't worry about it" she added. "He likes you."
"But..."
"Can I ask you something?" she interrupted.
"Sure" I reply, mind still racing.
"Did you mean it when you said I was beautiful?
"Oh shit! I thought inwardly, but out loud I said "Yes, absolutely."
"Well, I told Eric when you said that, expecting him to get jealous."
Damn, I knew that slip was going to come back and bite me.
Then she adds, "I told him the context of it all, that I was pretty pissed off at him at the time, and that you had made me feel a lot better"
"He apologized for being a jerk, and I guess I was wanting to rub it in, so I told him that I kissed you for being so sweet."
"I bet that really irritated him" I responded, getting uncomfortable with where this was going.
She sat there, just looking down for a few long moments. Then she looked back up at me. "No it didn't, he wasn't mad at all. Actually, he asked me about 20 questions wanting to know if that was all we did.
"Then she continued, "Then he kissed me like he hasn't in years. We ended up having the best sex that night that we've had in a long time.
Damn again, I thought. I actually kind of understood where he was coming from here - when I had been married I had similar inclinations but this wasn't anything I was willing to share with Jody! I stayed quiet, unsure what to say, watching her, amazed that she was sharing any of this.
With that she finished her glass of wine in one swallow, stood and walked over to me.
"It's time for me to leave, Eric is waiting for me at home." She said this in a way, or with a look perhaps, that conveyed that they were going to have some impassioned sex when she arrived.
Then she walked over and kissed me, full on the lips. The red wine mixed with her kiss was like heaven. I could feel her body against me, her breasts pressed into my chest, and the way she smelled. Her tongue brushed against my lips, if only for a moment. I was instantly aroused, and wanted this girl, badly! Ohhh geez. This was indeed trouble.
Then she turned, grabbed her purse and half walked, half ran out. I caught my wits just as I heard the outside door open and hustled out, wanting to make sure she got out to her car safely. OK, maybe I was wanting more than that.
She was already driving through the lot as I got to the door.
I walked back in, I could feel this huge stupid smile on my face. I packed up our project. I found her shoes on the floor beneath the table. I held them in my hand, then set them on the table as I collected our things. Black, tall, thin heels, very sexy.
Now I know people get off on all sorts of things, mostly I've been fairly conventional, but at that moment, these shoes were about the sexiest thing I'd ever seen. And, well, I was as turned on as I'd been in years. I stood there by that table, ran my fingers over those shoes.. Ohhh.. She would never know if I...
The next day Jody gave me a wink, but outwardly she acted like it never happened. I almost wondered whether it actually had. Over the next couple of weeks, she did seem a little more friendly. It was a subtle change, she had always been friendly, but mostly just very professional.
It was maybe a month later that we had a company party. It was a Christmas party, though it was in March since December is always a very busy time of year for us. Odd I know, but that's how we did it. It was at a local hotel, all employees and their spouses were invited. About 100 people showed up I guess.
I went alone, but ran into Jody and her husband just after arriving. She made sure to re-introduce me to him, and insisted that I sit at the table with them.
It was your typical company party, some awards given, a talk by the owner and such. There was a DJ that cranked up afterwards, the dance floor filled, and it got pretty lively. I was standing near the bar when I saw Jody approaching. She asked me to dance with her. "Eric doesn't like to dance" she coaxed.
