Jean came in the door, somewhat fearful, half expecting to find Susan either comatose or hysterical, but, instead, saw her dry-eyed and, apparently, lucid. "How are you, dear," she asked, "are you ok?"
"I'm fine, I guess, but...but are you mad at me?"
Jean put her arms around her and hugged her as she asked, "What on earth would I be mad at you for'? You certainly didn't do anything wrong!"
"Oh, Jean, dear, your husband fuck...fucked me last night! I was so afraid you would be upset and angry! Aren't you?"
"You silly little thing! Of course I'm not upset! I'll admit that I wasn't quite sure how I felt when I realized that he was going to screw you, but, I have to admit, I actually enjoyed watching him take you. My only concern was how you would react after you left last night. I've been terribly worried because I know nothing remotely like that has ever happened to you and I didn't get a chance to console you last night. I'll admit something though. I snuck over here, after Don and I were finished, to see if I could tell if you were having trouble, and I heard you and Jim in the bedroom. That relieved my mind somewhat; otherwise I would have been over as soon as Jim left this morning. I hope you don't mind my eavesdropping."
"Of course I don't, honey. I guess I left your place in a daze, for I don't remember anything clearly after Don finished. As I'm sure you could guess, I've thought of nothing else since I woke up, and I think I've gotten things squared away, to some degree, anyway As you heard, Jim and I made love after I got home, and that probably was the best thing that possibly could have happened. If I had needed to come in and act natural a few minutes after Don screwed me, I know I couldn't have done it. Or, if I had, somehow, concealed what I had done, I'm sure that I would be wracked with guilt right now. After all, it was adultery, no matter what the circumstances, and I certainly was not prepared to handle that. Last night, though, Jim took me to bed while I was still in a trance, still dazed from Don having me. When I came back to myself, we were engaged in a wonderful love-making session. It doesn't make sense, I guess, but that was so reassuring; it seemed to put things in perspective. Maybe it is just rationalization, but I was able to see the screwing with Don was just sex, with Jim it was love. Does that make sense, or am I just trying to find justification for some that I did?"
"Of course it makes sense, honey. That's the same thing I was saying about loving and being in love."
"There's something else, too, which I'm using, right or wrong, to excuse myself. It seems that once someone dominates and spanks me, they can do anything they want with me. That's the way it was with you and, joke or not, you have been my mistress, at least in sex, ever since. Now Don handled me like I was an infant, picking me up and turning me over, and then placing me on the bed. When he laid me on the bed I knew he was going to have me, and I made absolutely no effort to stop him. In fact, maybe you noticed, I spread myself wide and helped him get in. I can't even claim that I didn't know what I was doing. I just never even thought of doing anything else! Hard as it is to admit, I wanted him to take me, use me, and to dominate me. I just can't understand myself, but part of me seems to want to be a slave girl when it comes to sex. But, I don't want that kind of relationship with my husband. There I want to be a loving, equal partner!"
"Well, I don't pretend to be a psychologist or psychoanalyst, but you know that I have the same feeling with Don after he spanks me, so I guess we are somewhat alike. In any case, I don't see any reason to worry yourself. If you enjoy being submissive in certain situations, I don't see that it hurts anyone, certainly not Jim. If it made you feel guilty and was hurting your relationship with him, that would be different, but I think that what you and I have done has made you a better and happier wife and partner for him. I don't know if being screwed by Don makes you a better wife, but, so far, it doesn't seem to have hurt."
"Hard as it is to believe that, with my upbringing, I certainly was more loving and responsive last night than usual! Do you realize that I went off with you working on me, had an unbelievable orgasm with Don and then really exploded with Jim? I must be a sex maniac! I just can't believe myself."
"Well, enough deep thought. To more pressing matters -- how's your bottom? I brought this over in case you needed it. I certainly did after I was after Don did me!" Jean took the bottle of lotion from her pocket and motioned for Susan to lie down on the bed. She pushed Susan's robe aside and said, "Boy, you did get a spanking! Your hips are still bright red!" As she smoothed the lotion over the cheeks, she asked, "Does that hurt'? The heat is unreal."
"It's really sore. I'm glad Jim isn't home, because I would have a hard time not wincing when I sit down. That's not the only place I'm sore. Look at my cunt." She rolled over on her back and spread her legs, something that would have been unthinkable such a short time before. "I think I am really swollen."
"Oh my heavens! Your cunt lips are puffed up and spread apart as if you were ready for sex. I know that Don really pounded you last night, but I didn't expect that!"
"He really did screw me hard, but then Jim did the same thing. Two hard screwings in less than an hour may be more than my cunt can stand. Maybe the lotion will help there too. Ooh, that does feel better!" Susan lay quietly while Jean tenderly applied the soothing lotion to her cunt, and then said, "Honey, we still have a problem. What do we do next?'
"What do you mean, dear?"
"Well, we can hardly go on as we were before, but I certainly don't want to stop doing things with you! But, Don knows about us, and he's screwed me! Is he going to want to do it again? Do you want him to? Should I go with you to Maine?" Susan's eyes began to water as she talked and it was obvious that tears would soon follow.
"Don't cry, honey, we'l1 work it out! As far as Don is concerned, I definitely think that he would want to screw you again; he's not stupid. After the way I felt last night, I certainly wouldn't have any objection -- I might even enjoy it. But, that's up to you. If you have my question in your mind, I'll just tell Don to stay out of the way when you and I are together, and he'll do it. He was worried about you, too, last night, after I told him how inexperienced you were, and he has no problem with the two of us being alone doing whatever we want. Remember, I told you before that he wouldn't object. He just doesn't like being lied to or duped. And, if course you should come with us! Even if you decide you don't want any three-way sex, the fact that you and Don have screwed once will make us all freer and more intimate."
"That makes me feel better, honey. It's funny, I've committed adultery, something that always horrified me, and it hasn't seemed nearly as important as I would have expected. I've been unfaithful to the husband I love dearly, and, while I do feel guilty about it, the guilt is hardly crushing. In fact, last night we were closer than we have been in some time, and, rationalization aside, I don't see that Jim was hurt by what happened at your place last night. If doing things with you made me a better wife and partner, and I think that you are right that it did, it may be that extramarital screwing loosened me up even more. There's no doubt that I'm less inhibited than I was before you spanked me! In any case, I considered whether I should tell Jim about it, but I sincerely believe that no good, and probably a lot of harm, would come from doing so. Once I decided that, the real question was your feelings and the future, not past events. I really want to go with you to Maine, and I'll do whatever you and Don want."
"Watch it, my little slave girl, you might be getting into more than you expect if you have both a mistress and a master," Jean said, laughing for the first time. "I'1l tell you what I think. We should cool it with Don until we get to Maine, and we'll see how you feel by then. In the meantime, Jim won't be coming home till late tonight, you said. Why don't you come over and eat with us this evening and we'll pretend nothing happened last night. You and Don can get comfortable with each other again, and we'll have a nice quiet, friendly, and non-traumatic, evening. What do you think?"
"I think that would be perfect, honey!"
