What the Hell! - Porn Star!
Mary and I, Jim, have been married for 15 years without kids. We did want some, but it appears Mary is unable. Something about a malformation of her ovaries and them not producing eggs. We were both disappointed, yet in love enough not to let it ruin our marriage. We met in the college library when we both wanted the same book for a class in computer science. Mary was just taking the course to fill her hours out, while I was going for my doctorate in computer science. We stood there, both our hands on the book still on the shelf. She looked at me, then smiled. I just looked determined. We wound up at a table, both reading the book.
I invited her to my dorm room to continue with our studies. She accepted. That night we wound up in my bed, fully clothed, sleeping. When we both woke the next morning, she looked at me shyly. I just smiled at her and winked. She grabbed my head and kissed me, with her mouth closed. She thanked me for not taking advantage of her, then rolled out of bed and hurried to the bathroom. I too needed to use the facilities but waited like a gentleman for her to finish. From then on, our relationship flourished based on love and mutual respect. We were married once out of college. She got a job as I worked to get my doctorate. When I achieved my doctorate we finally brought the house of our dreams with my signing bonus. We were happy and in love.
15 years later...
So, Mary had gone up to bed while I was working on something for work. I finished my work and decided to surf the web a little. I liked looking at porn and wished I had gotten into the business when it and I, were still young. I could have made a fortune. Hindsight is always 20/20, isn't it? Anyway, I went to my favorite site and started to look at new videos. My tastes ran the gamut. There was no particular genre that I liked over the others. I did prefer regular women to those that had work done. I preferred amateurs to pros. As I was scanning the videos, a face caught my eye. I clicked on the thumbnail.
It was her! God damn it, it was Mary! What the hell! Was she a Porn star before we married and she hadn't told me? What the hell! I watched the video. Her face didn't show until almost the very end. Yep, it was her. I could also see her wedding rings, so she did this after we were married. What the hell? When had she had the time to do this? The bitch was going to pay. Now to decide how. I clicked on the posters link. It was some guy, at least the bio said he was. I started to browse the videos he had posted. There were quite a few and not all of them were of Mary. I downloaded every one of hers to my laptop. It took most of the night but I felt it would be worth it in the long run.
The following morning, which was only two hours after I finally got to bed, Mary shook me awake. I waved her off. She shook me again. I wanted to turn over and punch her, but instead, I got up and sent an email to work telling them I wasn't coming in today. I then crawled back into bed. Mary sat up then.
"What are you doing? You have to go to work," she said.
"Not today, I'm beat."
"Well, shit," she said.
I wondered what plans I might be disrupting. I felt her lay back down. I closed my eyes and went back to sleep. When she finally got out of bed, she woke me even though she was trying not to. I was really interested in what she was planning on doing today. Even though she was in the kitchen, I could hear her talking on her cell phone. The heating vent in the kitchen is directly connected to the one in our bedroom. I could hear her plain as day.
"Jeff, it's me, we can't do it here today. No, he didn't go to work. I know. I know. Shut up you little twerp, don't you ever talk about my husband like that again. Go pound sand dickhead. You may think you own me but you sure as hell don't asshole."
That was the extent of her conversation. If she had been talking on a landline, I'm sure she would have slammed the receiver down on its cradle. The last statement she made now made me wonder why she was doing what she was doing. Did Jeff have something to hold over her? Who the fuck was Jeff? I was now wide awake but didn't want to get up. I didn't want to be around her. I needed to get out, but I decided I needed to stay to see how things worked out. I then heard her cell phone buzz.
"What do you want..." she growled. "Fine. One this afternoon. I don't know... fuck, I'll see what I can do. Fuck you!"
I could hear her slam her phone down on the counter. It didn't look like she was doing this because she wanted to. It looked like she might be being blackmailed to do this. I just lay there with my eyes closed. I could hear her come into the bedroom. She stood at my side of the bed. I heard the rustle of clothes taken off. I wondered what she was up to.
Then she was gone and I heard the shower start. I lay there listening and waiting. My mind was in turmoil. What was she doing this for? Why was she doing this? It made no sense. We didn't need the money. And I thought our love life was just fine. Well, she never complained about it and she would have it was lacking. She complains about everything else, why wouldn't she complain about our sex life. I was really confused.
She was back in the bedroom, naked. I had peeked as she walked in. She was a beautiful woman and I felt so lucky to have her as my wife. Yet, now... well, I was dying inside. That love for her was shriveling up and turning black as night. I listened as she dressed. She was being extra quiet so as not to wake me, I guess. I took another peek as she dressed. She was wearing a plain blouse with dark shorts. What she usually wore when she went shopping in the summer.
Once she was out of the bedroom, she had closed the door behind her as she left, I was alone with my thoughts once again. And they were not pleasant. Should I confront her? Should I get up and follow her? So many things running through my mind, I just couldn't keep up with them and they kept me from getting back to sleep. Well, I needed to get up anyway. So I did. She had made the coffee, so, at least she was thinking of me.
I sat there bemoaning my plight as I sipped my coffee. I shook my head and wondered what I should do. Then I had a brilliant idea. I was a computer specialist. My job was to track down hackers who were trying to hack into the company for who I worked. Sorry, can't mention them. I got up and went into the den where the computers were. We each had one. I turned them both on. I didn't know her password, but I wouldn't need it as I wasn't going to be logging in to her computer, just hacking in and seeing what she was up to.
It was a couple of hours later that I looked up at the clock. I had found out a whole lot about what she was doing, just not why she was doing it. I shook my head in resignation. It looked like divorce was in our future. I had all the information I needed on my computer, ready to print out. I was still contemplating what I should do when the phone rang. The number on the caller ID said it was the police.
"Hello," I said.
"Mr. James Dugan?"
"Yes."
"I'm Officer Maloney of the Center City police department I have some serious news about your wife..."
"What? What's happened to her?"
"It appears that she was beaten up. She is at the Center City Hospital in the ER unconscious. You should get down here as soon as possible."
"I'm leaving now," I shouted hanging up the phone and racing to the bedroom to get dressed.
I was in my car trying not to drive wildly on my way to the hospital. It was only about five miles away. I was there in ten minutes. Traffic was horrible. I parked in the ER parking lot and ran to the entrance. After identifying myself, they showed me back to where Mary was. She was all beat up. Bruises on her face and arms. That's when I swore to myself that the person who did this would pay dearly. Officer Maloney was there and waited until I had a little time with my unconscious wife. When I turned to him, he just nodded toward the hallway outside her cubical.
"She was found by some children on their way to school. She was naked except for her panties. The oldest of the kids called us. We don't know what happened. Do you know where she was going this morning?" he asked.
"No, no, I don't. I was asleep and had just gotten up when you called."
He looked at me kind of strangely.
"I had called in as I had a late-night working from home."
"Ah, okay, no problem. We don't know who did this to your wife, but if you think of anyone that might have done this let us know. We haven't found her car yet."
"Of course Officer, of course. I don't care about the car," I replied knowing exactly who had done this to her. And he was going to pay.
I went back into the cubical with Mary. Officer Maloney went away. I held Mary's hand. I heard her sigh and her eyes flickered open. She squinted looking over at me.
"What happened," she said.
"What do you remember?" I asked softly.
"I..."
"The time for lying is over, dear," I said.
Her eyes closed for a few seconds, then opened with tears rolling down her face.
"I'm so sorry, so sorry..."
"I know. Now tell me what you remember."
"After that phone call I got, I guess you know what I was doing, don't you?"
"I do. We'll discuss that later."
"I love you. I mean really, really, love you."
"And I love you. Now, what happened?"
"Well, after the phone call, I decided to tell him I was quitting even though they had some pretty bad stuff on me. He blackmailed me into doing the things I did for him, with him and others. I'm so sorry," she said breaking down at the end.
"Who is him?"
"Jeffery Westland."
I nodded. Yep, that's where the trail had led me and he would pay.
"You knew. When?" she asked wincing in pain.
"This morning. I followed the trail, just like I do for work."
"Ah, yes, work," she said.
She didn't know what I really did, just that I tracked down criminals, cyber-criminals, for my company.
"Yes, work. Tell me how..."
"NO. I don't think I can."
