Forward.
I want to thank Saddletramp for allowing me to borrow a couple of his characters for this story. Justice O Peace(Eli) and his beautiful wife Elizabeth(Lizzy).
This story is about two other stories, where the women made some bad decisions that cost them their marriages. One of the husbands committed suicide.
I could never find the two stories again after I read them. But they stuck in my mind. So if the authors would please contact me, I will give credit and repost.
The first story starts out with a woman having a long conversation with her husband that had left her, but it turns out she is talking to his gravestone. He committed suicide after finding out about her affair.
The next one was a woman on a business trip who turned 40 while she was out of town on that trip. Her husband and kids decided to surprise her for her birthday. They get there early in the morning to her hotel room. Upon entering her room, they had noticed Susan's suitcase had not been unpacked from her flight, even though she had checked into the room the day before.
She turns around to see her loving husband and kids standing there, and her world collapses around her. Those stories were so well written, you could feel everyone's pain.
I do not remember the original character names, so I chose my own. If the authors contact me, I will correct it.
How many times in stories do the women wish they go back and be UNFUCKED. So this is where I got an idea for the over-the-top story. Think of how many stories could have been saved in Literotica using this device.
Only in Saddle Tramp's world could they be given a second chance to undo the damage they had caused. So again, I thank him for allowing me into his universe.
I want to thank the gentleman that gave me some good ideas to help the story flow better. He does not wish his identity to be known. You know who are.
I also referenced my story February Sucks My Way.
Remember, this is FICTION.
CHAPTER 1
Deal with the Devil
It was a quiet Thursday night at St. Mother Mary's Cathedral. The place was eerily quiet except for the silent sobs of two women kneeling before God prying for mercy. The silent sobbing sounded deafening as they echoed throughout God's sanctuary.
God's churches was designed to bring a feeling of inner peace and solace to the members of his flock. But tonight, it didn't seem to help the two people looking for answers.
The two women looked old for their ages. They wore no make-up, and their hair had no luster. They looked like life had defeated them.
One woman looked up with tears in her eyes spoke. "Dear God, please help me. Please send someone to make my family's pain go away. I deserve all the pain I am feeling and never want to be relieved of it. It is the price of my sins that I must suffer. My husband is a good man. He didn't deserve what I did to him. I cheated and broke my vows to him, and to you God, to forsake all others. Please, bring him peace. He is drinking heavily now to dull the pain I have caused him. And I am scared for his health. My children hate me. And seem to have withdrawn from everything they have known. They are now running with the wrong people. And there is nothing I can do to stop it.
I am not going to ask for forgiveness. I deserve everything that is happening to me. I will be more than happy to spend eternity in hell for what I did. I truly, deserve everything I get. But please show mercy and compassion to my husband and children. Yes, I said, husband. All though we are no longer married in the eyes of the law, I will never be with another man. I am not worthy to ever to be called a wife again." She broke down sobbing again. "Please God, help me."
Over to her right at the other end of the pew was another woman crying and sniffling, praying to God. "Please help me, God. My children need your help. I deserve everything I am going through. Please allow Roger into heaven. He has already lived in hell with me. He knew the only unforgivable sin, is suicide. But he was sick with grief and pain that I caused. He couldn't stand to live life with it. I will be happy to spend eternity in hell if you allow him into heaven.
My kids are falling apart. I found drugs in my son's room and condoms in my daughters. She is only 14, and she is trying to find a replacement for her father's love. I'm responsible for all the pain that I brought on by my foolish pride and what I thought I deserved. The thing I realize now is, my family didn't deserve a woman like me. They deserve a hell of a lot better. Please, send an angel to look over my family. Don't worry about me. I will get what I deserve. There is a special place in hell for foolish women like me." Both women continued to sob.
They could hear the squeak of a door opening and a boom as it closed. Because of the quietness of the church, it sounded like the main gate of a castle opening and closing.
Click ching. Click ching. Click ching. It got louder as the steps approached the front of the church. There was a sound of a person sitting down behind them.
She turned to see a tall elderly cowboy sitting behind them in a pew a few rows from them. He sat with his hat in his hand, waiting for the two ladies to quit praying.
He was a tall, lanky fellow. He had handsome, chiseled features. He dressed as if he walked out of an 1800's cowboy movie.
"Excuse me, sir," said the blond. "Father Flannigan would be upset if he knew you were damaging his marble floors with your spurs."
The old man responded with a grin, "Ma'am, me and father go way back. I talked to him earlier in the day and told him I would be meeting with you two ladies tonight."
The two ladies looked at each other, and the brunette spoke up, "Sir, you must be thinking of another woman. I just stopped by on the spur of the moment to pray."
The blond said, "Me too."
"No, Ma'am, I have been waiting for you two. We knew a week ago you would be here tonight." the old man said smiling.
The woman gasped when they saw the old guns in the man's holster. He gave a warm smile. "Ma'am, I am here as your protector," turning to show the two women his badge. I'm known as Justice O Peace, but my name is Elijah Jones. All my friends call me Eli, Ma'am. I have been assigned to bring you two in tonight. I'm taking you to see the misses. She is in charge of your case."
The women were now terrified of the man and started to stand up. "Ladies. Didn't you both just ask for help with your families." He saw there was still fear in their eyes. He smiled again.
"Let me guess you were expecting wings. I ride a horse," Eli said, chuckling out loud.
