Five years ago, after a whirlwind romance, I married Jim Gaston, the love of my life. Jim was attentive, passionate and very motivated. One year after our wedding he started a business with Ted, his best friend from college. Things have been going well, but the business has taken a toll on our marriage and our sex life. I have a very active libido and when we were dating we had sex daily and even after our wedding it wasn't uncommon for us to have sex four or five times a week. For the past year I am lucky to have sex once or twice a month. Jim's workload is insane and I know when he gets home he simply doesn't have anything left for me. But I can't help but think that there is something else going on. I can't imagine Jim having an affair, but I do wonder if he is committed to me. Around the same time as the frequency of our sexual encounters declined we decided to start trying to have a baby -- meaning I stopped taking the pill. Part of me thinks that Jim doesn't really want to have a baby with me and I guess that hurts. Of course, my libido is still there and being the creative woman that I am I found the perfect outlet for my passion -- writing.
First, I am not a writer as you may have noticed, but I have found that writing about my sexual fantasies -- and they are just fantasies -- is an amazing way to meet the needs that Jim isn't addressing in the bedroom. Earlier this year I had amassed a folder with more than 30 short stories depicting all sorts of plausible and implausible fantasies. Soon after that I found a website called Literotica and I began posting my stories there, anonymously. I loved the feedback from the readers and the fact that other people were enjoying my fantasies really gave me a kick inspiring me to reveal more and more of my darker fantasies -- exploring things I hadn't ever given myself the freedom to consider including fantasies of control, blackmail and reluctance.
Then something completely unforeseen happened, my computer crashed. Jim took my laptop into the office and asked Ted if he could get one of the guys to fix it. Ted never got around to handing off the laptop to one of the IT guys so around 5PM he began working on it himself. He found a boot disk and repair the problem -- something to do with a corrupt segment on the hard drive. It was all fixed around 7PM and since the office was empty he decided to do a little snooping.
Before I go on, let me tell you about Ted. I actually met him the day before I met Jim and after a few too many cocktails I had let him kiss me. The next day he introduced me to Jim and we have been together ever since. Ted is a very attractive man and he knows it. His arrogance is overwhelming and I think that is why he is still alone. Sure he gets laid a lot, but his relationships rarely last more than a few weeks. Jim is the opposite of Ted, but for some reason they make great business partners. I never told Jim that Ted and I had kissed and it never really seemed that important. That being said I had written a few stories about Ted.
Of course during his snooping Ted found my erotic story folder and began reading my short stories. When he began reading the first story about him, I later learned, he couldn't help but pull out his cock and begin masturbating at his desk. He put my stories on a thumb drive and decided to stop by our house to drop my laptop off. I was surprised to see Ted at our door holding my laptop and after seeing the look on his face I was almost certain he had read my stories. I turned bright red as Ted whispered, "There is nothing to be embarrassed about, you are a great writer."
I jerked the laptop out of his hands and began closing the door when he asked if Jim was home. He was of course, but I said no and locked the door. Ted smirked and drove home. I opened my laptop and saw that the folder containing my stories was open as was one of the stories I had written about him. I began reading the story and I realized I was in trouble. The story detailed a series of events whereby Ted was able to blackmail me into an inappropriate situation that ultimately led me to the point where I betrayed my husband and our wedding vows.
Just as I finished the story, my phone buzzed with a text message from Ted. He told me to join him for lunch the next day. I texted him back with one word, "ok".
