He betrayed her love and trust when he crawled into bed with someone else. He recognized his mistake and wanted his wife back. He was not prepared to let her go and had no problem in using coercion, intimidation, force and even stalking in a questionable attempt to reignite her affections.
He loved her and despite everything, she still loved him. Would this be enough to reunite them?
*********************
I had reached a point in my life when I felt trapped in a maze like a rat.
I grew up in a family of high achievers, the middle son of a prosperous and domineering man. My Father had been a complicated man and things weren't always emotionally easy for our mother or us boys. Hell, he treated all of us as his possessions. My youth was one of measured privilege, but the unquenchable thirst for achievement, the need to gain my Father's approval while always struggling to break free of his dominance and control overshadowed everything. I've come to understand that my relationship with my Father influenced so many things in my adult life. In hindsight, I can see my reaction to my wife's rejection was in character with my upbringing and was inevitable.
My life's trajectory first started veering off course as I approached my mid-teens. In and out of trouble with the cops, constant fighting with my father, nothing I seemed to do could ever please him, and so I finally gave up and left him, the family, and the whole damn situation.
I bummed around for a year or so before joining the military and after surviving three tours of duty in various "conflicts", I returned home. Without skipping a beat, I picked up where I had left off, and within a few weeks of my return, the old evils of drinking, indiscriminate sex, drugs, questionable women, fighting, etc., were regular occurrences, and I again found myself embroiled in trouble with the police.

Feeling the warmth of the morning light, I opened my eyes and looked at the clock that irritably blinked 7:00 am.
I sensed someone lying next to me and rolled over to see an attractive bleach-blonde woman beside me. My first thought was "who the fuck is she?" but then, what did it matter? I had awakened more than once in someone's bed or found a stranger in mine.
I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. When finished I came out and glanced at her sleeping form, I didn't remember her name and only vaguely recalled the night before.
Wanting her gone, waking her I none to politely told her it was time for her to go.
Within fifteen minutes I was walking an extremely pissed off woman to the front door, reassuring her that I would call her later in the day. Of course, this was a lie; I very rarely saw one of these women after the first encounter.
It was around this time that I ran into Tiffany Reynolds. For several months, Tiff and my older brother Matt had been a couple. He'd cheat on her; she'd cheat on him, they'd fight and then get back together. When I got out of jail for the second time in six months, she offered me a temporary place to stay, and I jumped at the opportunity.
Though I liked Tiffany and felt a strong sexual attraction to her, I initially wanted this to be a platonic business arrangement. I tried to keep it that way, but Tiffany could be a very enticing temptation. Even though she had already been with my brother, we both knew our coupling was inevitable. I remember how it was that first time. We had been playing around, teasing, light fondling and brief kisses for a while. These intimacies had gradually increased and intensified until that morning I walked in on her when she was in the bathroom getting ready to shower. "I'm sorry, I gotta go, can't wait," I said sighing with relief as the warm, spray of urine streamed into the bowl. She smiled, eying my humongous morning wood. As the last warm drops of pee began to fall, she lowered herself to her knees, and taking my cock in her hand pressed it to her lips enveloping my rapidly hardening member. I stood there in a state of pleasant surprise as my legs began to tremble and Tiffany coaxed me to sit down. With my dick still in her mouth, she opened my thighs wider and buried her face in my crotch, sucking, licking and slurping with abandon.
To my embarrassment, I could hear myself moaning and whimpering with pleasure, like a fucking schoolboy, but I didn't care. All I wanted was to cum as hard as I could down Tiffany's throat. Damn, but it felt good. I sat there, an eager object of her attention.
"Tiffany, oh my god Tiff, I'm cumming!" I groaned as I gave into her ministrations. Engrossed in the sensations, I felt the pressure building as cum filled my balls, seeking escape. I moaned from deep in my chest when cum sprayed out of my cock's tip into the warm, tight moistness of her mouth.
After allowing me to regain my composure and the ability to walk, Tiff took my hand and led me into her bedroom. My erection had returned, harder and stronger than before. Tiff pushed me onto my back, rolled on top of me, and began rubbing my cock head between her wonderfully wet, slippery slit. My cock started to leak when she continued to rub and grind her pussy against my hot, throbbing tool. Tiff positioned her pussy and slowly lowered herself down my dick pole, making me feel wonderfully swollen and big inside her.
"Ok?" she asked.
"Yeah," I replied.
A light sheen of sweat had formed and glistened on her forehead, "Don't cum," she admonished in her excitement, "do you understand?"
"Yeah," I said in a choked voice, intuitively moving my hips my cock rubbing up and down inside her pussy. I watched the changing expression on her face, as she raised and lowered her pussy on my cock, working toward her orgasm.
Despite her obviously wanting to be in control, my male instincts took over and I rolled her over onto her back and began fucking her slow and hard. I could feel her pussy trying to grab and hold my thrusting cock.
That was the first of many sexual encounters with Tiffany, that is until I met Bryce.
*****
Bryce and I moved in together a little over two years ago. It had always been good for us, emotionally, temperamentally, personally and beyond all expectations sexually. My little, quiet, conservative Bryce had turned out to be all the woman I could ever have wanted.
I first met Bryce through a mutual acquaintance. One night she was out with a couple of her girlfriends, and they came into Phineas', a dark, little bar out on Highway 92. She told me after we had gotten to know each other that when they had pulled up in front and parked the car that night, she was surprised by the ramshackle appearance of the place. It was a real dive, a motorcycle bar actually, not the kind of place that she would have normally gone to, let alone been seen.
"I didn't want to go in and even suggested the others go on in, and I would call a cab and head home," she said. Finally, amid feigned protests and good hearted cries of 'goody two shoes,' she had relented and let them persuade her to go inside for just one drink.
The bar was dark, dank smelling and crowded, with an old "Steely Dan" vocal blasting in the background. There were a few women in the place, but the majority of the patrons were rough, burly men clad in dirty denim jeans, head kerchiefs, vests, motorcycle jackets, long hair, beards or stubbly chins. You name the stereotype, and it was there that night.
I stood at the far side of the bar having a drink with a now occasional booty call, named Tiffany Reynolds. I saw Bryce come through the door looking beautiful, uncomfortable and terribly out of place. She couldn't have been any more than 5'4" and maybe 115 lbs., with high, firm breasts, small waist, and a tight ass. I didn't mean to stare, but when she walked pass the group of us at the bar, I could appreciate her beautiful large green eyes, her full sensual mouth, and the thick, auburn colored hair that curled about her face.
Her friend Jean spotted an empty table, and the small group made their way to the table chatting and laughing. They sat down, ordered their drinks and I watched her as she nervously looked around the room and at the strange grouping of people having what I'm sure, they considered a good time.
I eyed the girl, laughing and talking with her friends and wondered what her laughter sounded like. Unexpectedly, I felt my business twitch between my legs and then that all too familiar male throbbing began. It was a pleasant sensation, something I hadn't felt on seeing a woman for the first time in a very long while. I'd meet a woman, fuck her, send her on her way and that was that. This girl was different, though. I didn't know why, just that she was, and that I wanted to meet her.
I asked Zoe, her waitress what the new girl's her name was and Zoe said it was Bryce Grisham and that she was a friend of Pam's, one of the bar regulars and coincidentally an acquaintance of mine. I sent drinks over to her and her friends and continued to hang back and watch her for another fifteen minutes or so before I walked over to her table.
"Hey Pam, how's it shaking," I said as I approached their table and pulled over an empty chair making room next to Bryce. I immediately began talking with Pam. Whenever I would direct a question to Bryce, she would reply with short, brief responses giving the impression of being impatient and standoffish.
"Hi, my name is Jace, Jace Mitchell . . . would you like another drink?" I asked having turned to face Bryce.
She looked at me with a piercing stare, as if by scrutinizing my face she could determine my character and trustworthiness.
"Huh, no I don't think so, I'm leaving in a few minutes, but thank you," she said in a voice that reminded me of a warm, whisper in bed.
However, she didn't leave, and I guess this thing between us started that night. I think we both felt a strong magnetism and within days of our meeting, we were seriously dating.
