This story is about a marriage in trouble and the efforts of a cheating spouse to reconcile with a husband who loves her. It is not RAAC but it is not a BTB either. I hope you will enjoy.

As a thirty two year old entrepreneur I was used to late hours and hard work. Yes it was hard on my home life, and my poor husband Larry spent many hours alone at home. It comes with the territory when you marry a workaholic.
I opened up a gym ten years ago. It was a tough slog but it has become a very profitable business. I have also written a couple of self help books when I've had the time.
A few months ago I began feeling my back and shoulder muscles aching and fatigued. I couldn't recall any injuries, so I tried working through the pain and strengthening through some vigorous exercises. The pain got worse, so I consulted with my doctor. He suggested physiotherapy and massage.
I did the physio exercises religiously and after a two week wait, I finally got the massage.
"Hello, Mrs Parker?
"Call me Elizabeth"
"Elizabeth, I'm Colin. I understand you are suffering from some repetitive strain issues. Shoulder neck and back primarily. Is that right?"
"Yes."
"Okay then, If you will please strip down and lie on the table, face down. I'll leave the room and come back in a few minutes."
"Wait! How far down should I go? Completely naked or down to my...?"
"It is up to you. If you're comfortable with just the towel that is ideal. If you're more modest then leave the panties on."
He left the room. I stripped off, the knickers stayed on. I looked at myself in the mirror. Not bad for thirty two years. I was never a beautiful woman but I wasn't ugly. My breasts were age appropriate. As a gym owner I worked out regularly so I was reasonably fit. I wrapped the towel around me and lay on the table and awaited Colin.
He didn't keep me waiting long. "Let's start with those shoulders and back."
He pulled the towel down to my waist, poured warm scented oil on my back and he began massaging it in. It felt heavenly!
Heavenly until he found a knot and he began an assault on it. He kneaded and pried, poked and prodded. I made unhappy "ouch" noises. He then moved to my shoulders and he found even more knots to release. I was never into pain and this was true torture.
Finally he gave me a lighter massage that felt much more relaxing.
"Elizabeth, you have more knots than a sailor's convention. I've got a few of them to release. We still have a bit of time, I would like to loosen up your legs a bit too. Would that be okay?"
"I guess so."
"You have an extremely fit body. You must work out a lot."
"Yes I own a gym. You know the big one downtown?"
"Oh yes, very nice!" He started with my feet and worked his way up. It was certainly relaxing up until he got right up to my butt. I got a little nervous. He could tell I was tense so he put the towel down and asked me to roll over. He turned away to protect my modesty as I repositioned the towel to cover my front.
He worked foot to hip. He carefully avoided my crotch. The he worked the front of my shoulders and neck. More knots and pain. He folded the towel down to my waist. I tried to cover my breasts with my hands but Colin stopped me.
"Think of me like your doctor Elizabeth. I have seen everything before and I want to make sure the chest and stomach area are relaxed as well."
He oiled his hands and my skin and massaged my chest and stomach. He was careful not to touch my sensitive nipples but he did occasionally brush them, accidentally.
As the session ended, I showered and booked a second appointment in two days time. I felt like a million bucks. So good in fact that lucky Larry would benefit tonight!
Larry was concerned about my condition and it was he who pushed me to get it sorted out.
"So Liz, how was the massage today, do you think it helped?"
"Hard to tell, parts of it felt wonderful, some parts hurt like hell. Colin is very good at finding the knots. I'll likely be black and blue by tomorrow."
"I'm sure it will help in the long run. Listen, I have been offered a weekend at a friend's cottage up on Greater Grantham Lake. The people that had booked it cancelled, so it's ours if we want it."
"I've got way too much work to do. Plus my publisher wants that draft to the editor by end of month."
"Liz, we haven't had a weekend away in ages. I hardly see you anymore. You are killing yourself with this crazy schedule. You need a break and we need to reconnect. I love you and I can feel us slipping away from each other."
"You knew I was a driven business woman when you married me. Yes we need to spend some time together but right now I really need to stay focused. Sorry babe, some other time."
"If you are going to be busy then maybe I will go to the cottage myself, alone. At least I might do some fishing."
I loved Larry and he was right. I was working far too much, but it was part of being who I am and how I built my business. I hated to lay it all on him but he would just have to suck it up and accept it.
That night Larry and I made love. I wish I could say that the earth moved but it didn't. The best I could say was that it was comfortable and predictable but I guess that is natural for married couples.
The next morning I ached like crazy! All those knots felt like they had been hit with a baseball bat. It was better the second day and I had my second appointment so I was prepared for more pain.
I stood in front of the mirror and looked at my body again. Fit as hell, but still hurting. I remembered the wonderful feeling of being massaged by Colin. Not the deep tissue stuff but the sensual feeling of scented oil being rubbed into a your skin by a handsome, strong man. Today I ditched the granny panties and wore much more fashionable and briefer underpants.
Colin worked at the knots again but gentler because he could tell I was still hurting.
"Let's address those legs again. You have long and sensual legs, great musculature."
When he had worked his way to my butt he lifted the towel.
"You are wearing shorter underwear this time. It makes it so much easier to get at the muscles."
"It makes it feel nicer too Colin. You have wonderful hands!"
He spent a bit more time on the front of me after I turned over. He was a little less worried about scaring me off than the other day. I enjoyed the massage immensely.
"Working on you is such a pleasure Elizabeth. You have an amazing body."
I made another appointment and hit the showers.
Larry had left for the cottage. I really hoped he would have a great time fishing. He begged me to come along, even for just a night.
For the third massage, I felt so comfortable with Colin that I stripped myself naked and covered myself with a towel.
My shoulders and back were beginning to feel more like they should and the massage was enjoyable and way less painful. When he moved the towel to do my upper leg he discovered that I was naked.
"I see you are much more relaxed with me now. This is wonderful because I can really work your glutes better this way."
"If you don't mind me saying so you have a lovely derrière."
"Thank you, it feels so good. You can do what you want with it."
"Be careful what you wish for, I may be a masseur but I am still a man."
Shit, am I turning him on?
"Flip over."
He doesn't turn away to preserve my modesty this time, he simply watches me lie on my back. He completely removes the towel and he moves to my head and works my shoulders and arms. Then he starts on my chest. Today he is not avoiding contact with my breasts. He frequently brushes my nipples with his arms as he reached down to my stomach muscles. His hand glide back up my body, over my breasts and they rest on my shoulders.
"Now the feet and legs."
His foot massages are putting me into a trancelike state. I feel myself in an amazing state of relaxation. He works my calves and then my quads. He ventures into my inner thighs and I find myself lifting my hips get his massage closer to my crotch.
"Calm, calm Elizabeth. Have patience and you'll get all you want. Don't lift your hips. Relax."
"Colin, it is hard to relax when your hand are so damn close to my pussy."
"Perhaps I'm taking liberties and I should keep my thoughts to myself but you you seem so open with me right now. You have the most beautiful pussy I have ever seen. So neatly trimmed, so tidy and so wet.
Would you like me to relieve the stress there?
I can't believe the state of arousal I feel.
"Yes please. Relieve the stress for me Colin."
His one hand begins to massage my pussy and the other one my breast. This man is an absolute master. He seems preternaturally aware of what will give me the most pleasure. He only spends a minute with my clit and cunt and ass until I have an epic orgasm. The feeling rocks me for a few minutes as Colin continues to play with my tits. I feel so incredibly relaxed.
"Forgive me Elizabeth. 'I've broken a rule. We are not allowed to..."
"It's alright, I won't complain. I asked for it."
"That may not matter. I could get fired."
"If that happens, you call me. I will hire you to be my gym's massage therapist."
"Seriously? If you were to offer me a position I would be very interested."
"I will keep that in mind."
I left Colin and headed back to the gym. I felt wonderful, relaxed and fulfilled. It was a feeling that I hadn't had in a very long time.
I did have thoughts about how "naughty" it was to be masturbated by my masseur but was I cheating on Larry? Surely not, I still loved him.
I worked till supper time. Ordered a sub sandwich and called Larry.
"Hey Liz, are you coming up?"
"I can't, I still have a mountain of stuff to do."
"Do you still love me Liz?"
"Of course I do."
"Then please. Get in your car and come up here."
"I would if I could."
"Well, if you can't make it tonight how about tomorrow."
"Larry, I said no. Let it be. I will see you Monday."
I hated when he got like this! Sometimes he just demanded way too much from me. I had a business to run damn it.
When I got home at 11 pm I made a cup of herbal tea and relaxed. I had put in a full day but try as I might, my mind kept drifting back to my massage with Colin. Never have I felt the intensity of an orgasm like that. My body felt so good and relaxed.
I took my tea to the bedroom and set it on the end table. I stripped, then looked at myself in the mirror. The more I stared, the more I imagined I could see Colin standing behind me, his arms reaching around me, cupping my breasts. I reached down between my legs and started to masturbate. I imagined myself back on the massage table with Colin's magic hands bringing me to a climax. Damn this was a great fantasy! Afterwards I slept like a stone.
I spent the next day writing. It was nice to spend a day in nothing but sweatpants.
Late Sunday night Larry came home. He said he had a good time but he was lonely. He tried to make love to me that night but I wasn't in the mood. When he heard I had spent all day at home writing he flipped out.
"You could have been writing anywhere. You chose to stay here, alone, rather than be with me. You could have written at the lake. Damn it Liz, do you even give a shit about us?"
