“I love you guys, I want to go to bed, I have work again tomorrow.” Sally said before hanging up the phone.
“Bye sweetheart! Sleep well. We love you.”
That night she tossed and turned and thought of Silas and what was right and wrong about the whole situation. She prayed for guidance in this situation, hoping that she would be shown the right path to take, and wishing that it would mean Silas would be in her bed one day. She felt dirty and guilty for a few minutes with those thoughts, but they were soon overwhelmed by her memories of his sadness she had seen in his eyes and heard in his voice when he had talked about his unhappy marriage.
Was that enough to absolve her of the sin that she wanted to commit by sleeping with a married man? She didn’t know but she wished she could ask someone, anyone, so she didn’t feel so bad about her longing to be with him.
Chapter 8
Silas got up the next morning. He had slept horribly wit thoughts of Sally taunting him all night. He had almost masturbated to take the sexual tension away a few times in the night, but decided against it. After all, he had gone four years with no sex, so what was another few weeks or days, depending on if he took that next step with Sally.
He wondered about Jackie as he walked past her bedroom on his way to the home gym he had built in his mansion. Jackie had complained about not having a place to work out in, and Silas had also known he would enjoy a nice workout. But of course she never used it. She just liked to have things for the sake of having them and for bragging rights.
He heard her laughing and talking on the phone. Silas made a mental note to call Clyde again to see if he’d discovered anything more about what Jackie did during the day as he became suspicious of her lately.
He had hired Clyde as a private investigator a few weeks before to follow Jackie. He was not sure whether Jackie had remained faithful to him or not. After all it was hard to go without sex for four years, and he wasn’t sure if she was handling it as well as he had.
As he climbed on the treadmill and put his headphones in he turned on his music and started running. His thoughts went back over how Jackie and he had grown apart, and how it came about.
He thought that he did have to take some of the blame for growing apart from each other but most of it was her fault she had been the one who had started to argue with every decision he made. First it was moving to the country because she didn’t want to leave the city. Next it was her threatening to take all of his money if they were to have a divorce.
She liked threatening divorce quite often and it was one of the main reasons he had hired Clyde to watch her. Silas was not stupid and knew that Jackie had to be seeing someone else. She would never leave him and leave herself broke. But if she was cheating on him, it would be with someone who was rich. Plus the money she felt she would garner in a divorce would help to support her for just a short period of time since she loved spending money and did so just about every day. Clyde had told him many times that he had followed Jackie to stores and watched her spend money like it was going out of style.
But if she was caught cheating he probably wouldn’t lose that much money during a divorce. I should have listened to my lawyer when he told me to get a prenup, he thought to himself. It would have saved him the hassle and the drama.
Of course when they first met Jackie had been quite attentive to his needs and wants. Pleasing him on more than one occasion. The sex was really good, especially in the beginning and he had been blinded by the lust he felt for her body. She was a model with one of the most beautiful bodies he had ever seen in his life.
He asked himself if there had really been any love on his side or not. Silas had to hope that he hadn’t been fooled by his body into thinking there was more to their relationship in the past. However, during the past four years he doubted himself and the decisions he made in his personal life.
His thoughts went once again to the young Sally Yates and how she had looked and smelled the day before. She had this lovely lilac scent that he had fallen in love with when he had stood closely behind her pretending to look out the window. It was a scent that was clean and feminine, and turned him so much.
Silas chuckled as he ran, he had been shocked when he had felt the erection yesterday. It had been years since he’d felt any kind of sexual reaction to a woman. But Sally had made him want to take her in his office, spread her legs apart right on his desk and make love to her all night. He could picture what he thought her sweet young body looked like under her clothes and he felt his cock begin to harden as he ran.
It was very hard to exercise when he was excited. Thankfully, he had finished his run and could jump off the treadmill. He made his way to the shower and turned the water on cold.
As he washed up, he moved his hand along his dick that was now fully awake. Sally filled his mind as he moved his hand on his member. But he didn’t allow himself to finish. Something in his mind told him to wait and share this first orgasm with this new woman in his life. He didn’t know when it would be, but if he had waited this long for sex he could do it for a little longer.
Silas smiled at the thought of pushing her over his desk and pounding into her. Showing her how much he desired her body and wanted to please her.
Chapter 9
Sally got ready for work, picking out another outfit that showed off her curves. While she knew it was wrong to seduce a married man, it wasn’t to seduce a married man who was unhappy in his marriage. Or at least she tried to convince herself of that. She tried to control her guilt by telling herself that she wasn’t ruining his marriage, he already had stated how unhappy he was.
When she walked into her office she saw the door to Silas’s office was open. She could hear him talking and didn’t want to interrupt him so she looked over some reports he had left on her desk.
Entering the information into the computer she stayed busy until he came out of his office. She looked up to see his hair was still wet from a shower, and thought how sexy he looked.
Her body warmed up thinking of him.
“Good morning.” He said.
“Morning. You seem like you are in a good mood this morning.” Sally commented.
“Yes, actually I am. I just found out some very good information.”
“Great!” She didn’t ask what the information was figuring if he wanted to share it he would. She had pushed him so much last night, now she felt like she had invaded his privacy.
“So are you ready to go over more of the resumes?” He asked.
“Sure.” Sally stood up and followed him into his office. His scent lingered in the air where he had been standing. As she walked through it, dirty thoughts of Silas crossed her mind and she thought that she might just give into him that day if she wasn’t careful.
They were going over the resumes when Jackie busted into the office. Her face was flushed and she didn’t even look at Sally. Instead she went over to Silas and began yelling at him. Sally felt odd being there but she couldn’t walk away, this was something she wanted to hear.
“Silas I’m leaving you. I am not happy anymore. My lawyer will be in touch with your lawyer. I hope once I get back from the country, we can finish our divorce.”
“I guess you decided your new man is worth more than me. How much money does he have?” Silas asked.
Jackie’s face went red and she sputtered, “There is no other man.”
“Oh come on Jackie, I know all about you two. In fact I have pictures to prove it. We’ll see just how much you can win in court when they find out you’re a cheating little whore.” Silas spat out.
“How dare you call me that?” She slapped him in the face hard.
Sally could hear the sound and saw the red mark that was left on his cheek from her hand.
“If the shoe fits. I had you followed for the past few weeks. My private investigator told me this morning after I left you had a man come over. He got some very interesting pictures of the two of you kissing and other positions. Let’s just s
ay that these pictures will help me out in court.” Silas commented. Even though he hadn’t seen the pictures yet, he knew by Clyde’s tone that the pictures were what he needed to free himself from her once and for all.
“How dare you spy on me! That’s illegal and a total invasion of my privacy.” Jackie sputtered.
“It’s not when you’re my wife.”
“What do you expect me to do, you haven’t touched me in four years!” Jackie said, attempting to play the victim.
Silas didn’t let her fool him though, “You could have stayed faithful like I did, or at least you could have left me first before you slept with another man. Tell me Jackie how many men have you been with in the past four years? I only know of one, but I bet there are many others.” Silas asked.
Sally looked at the sadness that spread over his face when he asked. She hoped that Jackie wouldn’t make him feel worse, but had a feeling this woman was the evil and vindictive.
“That really is none of your business. If you really wanted me, you would have shown it. And you didn’t. Not by a long shot”
“On the contrary, it is my business. But I don’t really care, you can count on my lawyer contacting yours today. I don’t want anything to do with you anymore.”
Jackie slapped Silas once more and seethed, “You’ll pay for this in court.”
“No, I don’t think so. You will find that the judge will look at your cheating as he should: a total breach of our marriage contract. You know I should have done this years ago. Just enjoy the fact that I let you continue to spend my money while you fucked other men. It’s over now though.” Silas stated firmly.
Sally had called security by this time, and they entered the room looking around, unsure what exactly to do.
Silas looked at the men and told them, “Please escort Jackie on her way out and make sure she isn’t allowed back in. If she tries to, call the cops and have her arrested for trespassing.” He told them.
Jackie knocked their hands away, “I can leave on my own. You’ll pay for this Silas.” She said as they escorted her through the doors.
Sally felt like this was the sign she had prayed for the night before. How could anyone blame her for sleeping with this gorgeous man who was on his way to being single again?
Chapter 10
“I’m really sorry you had to witness that. I do hope that you won’t discuss what you saw with anyone in the office.” Silas commented.
“I’m just glad I was here call security before things got even crazier.” Sally stated.
“Yes thank you for doing that. She always thought she would be able to take a lot of my money when she left. But now she is realizing her cash cow is coming to an end. I pity the poor man she is hooking up with’ he’ll have a hell of a time paying her bills.” Silas muttered.
Sally thought he sounded sad, and wondered if he did actually love his wife. But she had also learned a lot more about his marriage with Jackie talking, and didn’t see how he could love her. She felt that perhaps this wasn’t a good time to seduce him and he needed to heal first. She needed to know he was over Jackie completely.
Silas closed the distance between them. “I know you must be thinking I’m an idiot for keeping her around for all these years.” He said.
Sally looked up at him, “No not really. If you loved her you wanted to try and work it out, it’s understandable.”
He cupped her chin in his huge hand and ran a finger along her cheek. “I don’t know if I was ever in love with her.”
“You must have been, you were together for over 10 years. I can’t see anyone staying with another person that long without love.” Sally said.
“Maybe you’re right, but I haven’t been happy for such a long time now.” He lowered his mouth to hers, unable to stop himself from kissing her.
The minute there lips touched Sally felt the electricity pass between them. She opened her mouth to him, even though she knew she shouldn’t. He pushed his tongue into her mouth and deepened the kiss. Sally molded her body into his and kissed him back, not wanting this moment to end.
He broke off the kiss and stepped back from her. She moved away from him in response and started to concentrate on the resumes once more.
Silas sat down beside her and looked over the papers for a few minutes. “Oh I found another place for you last night.” He said.
“I can’t really afford to move yet. I used most of my savings to secure the place I have now.” Sally commented.
“But I told you that area is bad, and I really don’t want you living there. At least have a look at the place and see if you like it.” Silas stated.
Sally sighed, “I guess so, but how will I ever afford it?”
“Don’t worry about that, I’ll reimburse you for the money you spent on the other place.”
“I don’t want your money Silas.” She said firmly.
“It isn’t my money, it’s the money you spent to get that other place. I look at it as an investment to make sure one of my newest employees is safe. We’ll go look at it this afternoon. But for now let’s see if we can get through more of these resumes.” He said, effectively ending any discussion on the subject.
Sally’s mouth was still tingling from his kiss and she wanted another one. But she couldn’t be so forward and just kiss him. He was still married and as far as she knew, still had feelings for his wife.
Chapter 11
Silas couldn’t get the feel of Sally’s lips off of his mind as he tried to concentrate on the huge pile of resumes in front of him. She was so close to him, and all he could think about was kissing her again. But she had seemed to close herself off to him after mentioning the love he had shared with Jackie.
He knew that Sally wasn’t the kind that would go with a man when she thought he was still in love with another woman. He couldn’t blame her; in fact, it made him respect her even more. She was nothing like Jackie either by saying that she didn’t want his money. But he didn’t want her living where she did and would hate himself if something happened to her.
“Sally I might have loved Jackie a long time ago, when we first got together. But those feelings died a long time ago for me. I simply stuck with her because it was cheaper for me to not divorce her. Now that I have proof she cheated, it won’t be as expensive. She’ll be lucky to get a tiny portion of money.” Silas explained.
Sally looked up at him, “Are you sure you are over her?”
“Absolutely. You heard what she said about not having sex for the past four years. That will change any man’s feeling towards his wife. But I couldn’t bring myself to touch her, she didn’t excite me anymore.” He admitted.
“Sex isn’t love Silas.” She said firmly.
“I know that now. But in the past I thought they were the same thing.”
“Yes it can easily be confusing to someone. But I won’t have sex with a man, just to have sex, there must be more between me and the person.”
“I respect that.” He said.
Sally was shocked at how their conversation was going. It was stirring up all kinds of emotions in her body. She knew she wanted Silas sexually, but she needed more than just sex with him. She would never allow herself to be just someone’s sex toy. She felt that deserved more in life than to be Silas’ plaything.
They were quiet while they worked away. The hours passed and soon his phone rang. He picked it up and talked for a few minutes.
“That fucking bitch.” Sally heard him say.
“What’s wrong?” She asked.
“Jackie is alleging that I beat her and that was why she ran to the arms of another man.” Silas stated angrily.
“But you didn’t even touch her this morning after she slapped you. How could she even think of trying this?” Sally asked.
“I told you she knows she isn’t going to get as much money, so she will try and blackmail me with bad press to make me pay her hush money.”
Sally thought about this for a few moments. “But surely if you would
have beat her in the past she would have gone to the emergency room at least one time. You should fight this Silas, and let the world know that she is lying.” Sally said.
“Yeah I know, it’s just bad timing, with the new division. People like to believe the woman in these cases.” Silas explained.
“But you can’t just pay her off and let her get away with tarnishing your name and reputation! You can hire the best lawyers and I’m sure they will win the case for you.”
“Well we can hope you are right.” He looked at his watch, “We have an appointment to get to.”
Sally followed him out to his car, she noticed he wasn’t standing as tall as he usually did. “Silas you shouldn’t let her get to you. You know you never did anything to her, so why are you thinking of caving into her blackmail?”
“I have slapped her before, but nothing serious. She also liked to be choked during sex, so she might bring that up in court. There are some things I would rather not come to light to the public. My personal life is something I don’t want out there.”
“How bad could it be?” Sally asked, unsure if she wanted to hear the answer.
He shook his head, “We’ll talk about it later. Right now we need to go see this apartment.”
Chapter 12
Sally couldn’t help but wonder what he was so worried about coming out to the public. Was he into some sort of weird fetish? Did he like to beat a woman when he made love to her? Was this what Jackie was talking about? She couldn’t imagine Silas being anything but gentle, especially after the kiss they had shared in his office. But sometimes people turned into someone else when they had sex she thought to herself.
She had heard stories from friends before about the guys they were dating and the things they had done. Sally didn’t like rough or painful sex. She wanted sweetness and tenderness when she made love. She didn’t want her first experience to be painful and often worried about this.
