Well, Gentle Reader, here's the next 869-word chapter of Andrea and her Cuckold's descent into servitude. At some reader's suggestions, if you would like to see a happier version of how a three-way relationship can work, you might peek at my "Happily a Throuple" stories. The next chapter is in final proofing as I type.
I'm having a bit of trouble with this story. I'm interested in seeing how this couple's relationship develops but I'm getting poor ratings on it (3.48 stars the last time I looked). I'm not used to getting a "C" for my work. But I'm also getting a relatively high number of "Favorite" marks. So I think I'm going to keep working on it, 869 words at a time. If nothing else, it will help with my well-known case of verbal diarrhea. I'm many things but brief is not among them.
Chapter Two
At 32, Andrea can still pass for being in her 20s, would not look out of place in one of the classes I taught, and can still be asked for an ID by a careful bartender. I'm proud of the way she looks and enjoy helping her get ready for her date nights.
"You are beautiful," I said, meeting her eyes in the mirror as I worked brush through her hair.
She smiled at me.
"Thank you, baby, you ARE the best husband ever," she said.
I felt a rush of pride at her compliment.
When I turned her so I could do her face she said, "A little heavy around the eyes, I think. The guys like it that way."
"GuyS?" I asked, emphasizing the final unvoiced alveolar fricative indicating plural.
Like a switch had flipped, her smile disappeared.
"Yes, Husband, guyssssssssssssssss," she snapped, "I'm hoping for at least an even dozen tonight."
I dropped to my knees and took her hands, kissing her palms and looking up at her.
"I apologize," I said, daring to meet her eyes, "I meant no offense."
"It's okay, Honey," she said, "it's just the hormones, you know."
