Thank you for your patience. For anyone who is just starting this story please read the first two parts if you want to know exactly what is going on.
It was poor sleeping. I half expected Allie to try something else. Finally I got up about four a.m. and went upstairs and got my clothes ready for work and then checked her phone. There were many text messages from Lindsey and Ronnie detailing how to get back in my good graces. The hint was that they needed me on Richard's side so that he might avoid disbarment. I have no idea how they could believe this unless Allie had no intention of testifying. Whatever. I wasn't changing my mind about the whole damn thing. Richard was paying. If Allie or the others perjured themselves then it was their loss when they got prosecuted for it.
I showered early so the kids could have the bathroom. I left early so she could also get the kids up and off to school. I had done it enough for the longest time. Another of those shared jobs that Allie had dumped on me. Now thinking about it just kept my anger on the front burner.
At work I tried to immerse myself so that I didn't have to think about the disaster my home life was continuing to be. Thinking that having Allie back home would make my life better only extended to the fact the kids were happy again. They were doing better in school and not causing as many disruptions. Their therapist actually said they didn't need much more therapy.
About ten I called Bill and let him in on what I had found on Allie's phone. He promised to talk with Hiram Wilson. Collusion was frowned upon by the courts and this seemed to be a conspiracy and maybe even witness tampering. The ADA might subpoena the phone. It wasn't wrong for me to look at it since it was still on my plan. Bill also said that the final post nuptial was almost ready. He and Bloodstone had met a couple of times and negotiated on some of the finer points. Bill was sure I would be ready to sign it. Bloodstone would pressure Allie to sign it as it was fair.
Since it was a Friday I texted Allie and asked her if she was planning on being home on Saturday night. When she sent back her affirmative reply I let her know I was going to be out for the evening. This way we didn't need a babysitter. If she had plans for tonight I would prepay the favor. I didn't have a real purpose, maybe a movie and just a quiet beer and burger at the pub.
She had not said anything about needing me to take care of the kids tonight but I wasn't surprised when I got home to find out that suddenly she was going out. I just nodded and told her the post-nuptial was ready to be signed. I enquired about whether she and I could meet at Bill's office on Monday. I hoped Bloodstone could also attend. She just nodded and continued to get ready to go out in front of me.
We were in the bedroom talking so the kids couldn't hear us unless we started yelling. I had no intention of doing that. I was trying to keep things emotionless. I asked her whom she was going out with. She had bent over to grab her panties, a thong by the way, and made sure I could see her pouting pussy lips and her once tight rectal opening. Yep, I would bet that Ronnie had made sure to use that huge dildo on my wife repeatedly unless the good judge was hung like a horse.
She suddenly stood up at my question. "I am going out with Lindsey and Ronnie if you must know. This isn't a violation of your damned agreement."
I nodded my head. "No, it's not but I will warn you. Since they have a different story of what happened than you do then they might try to get you to change your story. If you then testify differently than at the hearing the ADA might charge you with perjury and them with witness tampering. I believe they are both felonies. Also, if you go to the Marshall house then the ADA might also construe that as witness tampering. It seems she doesn't like the good judge for some reason."
I let that little pearl of information soak in. "Maybe you should check into a motel for tonight. I doubt if Ronnie or Lindsey would like to come here with me in the house so a motel might be better for you."
She fired back. "You assume that I will be having sex with them. You don't have a high opinion of me anymore do you."
I shook my head. "Look at the facts. You cheated on me without my knowledge or permission with impunity. You even made sure to fuck them, or have them fuck you, in our marital bed. I have accepted this and it is permissible under the agreement we are going to sign. I have every intention of signing it on Monday. Hell, if it hadn't been inconvenient for me to go to Bill's office today it would already be signed by me and notarized. I know you have not had any sex since coming home and have to be getting very horny. So, go have some fun."
She tried to get me on board again. "Look, I am standing here nude and ready. Fuck me right now and I won't go out tonight. The girls can just play with each other. Please, Cal, touch me, stroke me, fuck me, do my asshole."
I turned and walked out of the bedroom without a comment.
A minute later I heard swearing and some heavy thumps as though something was being thrown against the wall of the bedroom. A few minutes after that Allie stormed out of the house. I wondered if she put her thong on before slapping on a simple tee shirt and jeans. She sure didn't look like she was going on a date with her lovers. I smiled to myself. Maybe she didn't need to entice her lovers anymore. I mused. Oh where had the romance gone?
I spent an uneventful evening with the kids. Since I didn't seem concerned about Allie being gone they seemed reassured and didn't seem stressed that mom was not present. They got to stay up a little later since it was a Friday. Lo and behold Allie came home about ten and joined us in the living room. I cocked an eyebrow at her but she just shrugged her shoulders and got involved in the board game we were playing.
Saturday a cop showed up and gave Allie a search warrant for her cell phone. She wasn't pleased. I hoped that meant she hadn't deleted any of her messages that I had seen. After he left she went to the bedroom for a short time before rejoining us. Since it was late in the fall it was a little nippy outside but we still all went out and raked leaves for a while. It kept us warm and the kids got into a leaf throwing fight and all the leaves were soon strung out again. It was a good family outing.
I know Allie was afraid to let me go out that evening. I didn't try to argue with her or even make a comment. I just got ready for my first evening as an unattached male since my early college days. I wasn't looking forward to it. Nope, not like I had been then. In college I anticipated finding my true love with every outing. Now I was just looking for possible companionship.
I did go to the newest block buster action movie and then made a promise to myself to bring Jason along next time. He loves these kinds of movies. Afterwards I went out for a lonely supper then stopped at the local pub and shot a couple of games of pool while drinking a beer.
While I was there a girl came up and asked me if I was lonely. She looked at my ring finger and noted the ring I still sported. I figured her for a 'lady of the evening' but indicated that she should sit down next to me. Hell, if nothing else I could talk with a woman.
She was pretty but looked a little jaded. I guess it was to be expected considering her line of work. She called herself "Crystal" but I would bet that it was a fake name. We talked in generalities for a while as I sipped a beer and she worked on a glass of wine. I gave her the shortened version of why I was out. She shook her head and made the usual comments that obviously Allie was an idiot and didn't deserve me.
Of course how could I not agree? I had attracted a pretty woman of about five foot eight inches who had light brown hair and green eyes and a nice bust and rounded hips and, from what I could see, a nice ass. I wasn't some naΓ―ve schoolkid. I knew that Crystal was looking for someone to pay her for her company but I wasn't buying. I wasn't that hard up yet.
We talked for about an hour before she got a phone call and had to leave. Her conversation was just what I needed. For a short while it had appeared that my life was in balance. It helped my self esteem a lot just to sit and talk with a woman without expectations.
I was whistling when I went into the house. It was after eleven and the kids must have been asleep. Allie was waiting and she pounced. "Did you fuck some skank? Are you happy now? Are you going to tell me the play by play and stroke by stroke to watch and see me fall apart? It that your intention?" She broke down and started to cry. She appeared heartbroken.
I waited a bit for her to get herself back in control. She finally stopped sobbing and just sat there looking forlorn. I sat down across from her. "Why is this bothering you so much? After all you planned to have me jailed on trumped up charges and take me to the cleaners while you got to play with your little friends. You denied me sex, not only while gone to the Marshall's, but even before that. What is the deal?"
She looked so confused. "I don't really know. Intellectually I know that I cheated on you and that we are agreeing to have sex outside our marriage but I always felt you would be there when I came home and we would be together again. I am having trouble accepting that you are going to have sex with someone else. I know is it a double standard but it is how I feel. It is so childish of me to expect you to forgive me but I don't know if I can forgive you for fucking some other woman."
She paused and thought about it. "I guess it is also that I want to make love with you but you are always saying no to me. I am trying to rebuild our relationship and be the mother, wife and lover you deserve but you are saying no to the wife and lover part. I know it is my fault but I am trying and you are not. I threw away our friendship and shit on your love but I am trying to make amends but you are slamming the door in my face at every turn. If you are trying to make sure that we don't survive as a couple you are doing a fine job of it."
What she was saying was true, all of it. She had a double standard going. She was planning on continuing with the people who sought to destroy us. She wanted freedom to do as she pleased. She also wanted me to just be waiting like a good little cuckold and accepting my role. She also didn't want me to have as much sex as she was getting and going to get. She was also trying, in her way, to make some amends but not by having to pay any penalty for it. She still didn't understand what she had done to us.
