"THE PARTY"

The Party

Donna M.

She was in a backroom
Full of strange aromas
And noises and candles
That was where he found her
He took her to a garden
Full of rain and silence
And she could smell the soil and the trees
And see the succulent light
From the little fires in his eyes
Pulling shapes out of the night
She was enchanted....
from the song �The Party� by Marillion ©1991

Laura and Jeff had only been married a little over a year and a half when they moved into their new home. Jeff was more of a city boy so the suburbs would take some getting used to. Laura on the other hand was born and bred as a true, white-picket-fence suburbanite. She fell in love with the house and the neighborhood, and couldn�t wait to meet everyone. While they settled in, she was a reverse welcome wagon of sorts, proactively traveling throughout the neighborhood and introducing herself to everyone. Her husband let her do her thing.

�Oh, Jeff, you should see the Lloyds� place!� she breathlessly declared one evening after Jeff got home from work. Laura took a leave of absence from her job when they moved; however, his commute was now three times longer than it had been, and was another of the sacrifices he felt he made to live there.

He said, �I guess you mean the McMansion on the cul-de-sac. Not my style, but I bet it�s lavish inside.�

�It�s amazing! The décor is so eclectic; I can only guess how much it cost.�

�Well, if the Lloyds have the money, they can spend it any way they want.� Jeff smiled at his wife, �Just don�t expect this house to look as amazing as theirs must be, at least for a while.�

�Is that a dig for me to get back to work?�

�No honey, it�s not.� Though in Jeff�s mind, maybe a bit of it was.

Laura continued to expound on the Lloyds and their house. �Kathy told me all about the parties they have. Like a regular neighborhood get-together. We�ll be invited to the next one.� She then gossiped about the Lloyds and others she met. �You should see Kathy Lloyd! She�s like half her husband Marvin�s age, and she�s got to have breast implants, like, they�re out to here,� she said, placing her hands far out in front of her to indicate the improbable size of Mrs. Lloyd�s tits. Jeff figured it was an exaggeration, but he�d reserve judgment until he met her and saw for himself.

�So, Marvin Lloyd has done well enough to have a trophy wife. Should I be planning now for when it�s my turn?�

Laura playfully punched his arm, saying �I thought you already had one?�

�Of course I do, honey,� Jeff said before he kissed her.

Jeff was indeed a tit man and his wife knew it. Laura�s melons were two of the reasons he fell for her, although his mind was presently occupied wondering what Mrs. Lloyd looked like and how big hers were.

Laura was a fantasizer; had been since her early teens, with the heartthrob actors and rock star posters and all the adolescent dreams that went with them. Even as a relative newlywed, she�d often fantasized about other men as she made love with Jeff. Her mind was now focused on a couple of the husbands she just met briefly; fantasizing about how the studs would be like in bed.

Now for different reasons, they both were looking forward to that first invitation.

For a few weeks after that discussion of the Lloyds and their parties, Jeff wondered how Laura was actually spending her days. She often told him stories about neighborhood folks he hadn�t met yet.

�You�ve just got to meet Justine and Rob Fortes,� she declared. �What a great looking couple, and they�re years older than us.�

Tired from a hard day�s work, Jeff submissively said, �I guess I�ll meet them at our first party. When will that be?�

�It�ll be soon. Kathy�s waiting for Jorge and Rachel to come back from Hedonism.�

�Hedo, huh? You do know what kind of resort that is, don�t you?�

�Oooooh yeah!� she excitingly said. �Sexy, huh? Can�t wait to meet them and hear all about it. Like maybe we could go there sometime.� From what he knew of the Hedonism resorts and those like them, conservative Jeff wasn�t sure it was all that sexy. He wondered exactly what his wife was trying to tell him. He should have understood what was happening when Laura showed him the new dress she�d bought for the party. On the hanger, the little red number looked much too small for her. He�d get clobbered if he asked her if it fit, so he took the safer route and wondered aloud if it would be too revealing.

�Of course not, silly. Don�t you want people to see how lucky you are to have me?� she said with a coquettish, exaggerated smile.

Oh, they�ll see you alright, he thought.

The night of the Lloyds� party, Jeff wavered between being turned on by how Laura looked in the dress and telling her she looked like a hooker.

The Lloyds certainly were a mismatched couple. Marvin met them at the door and invited them in, all the while poorly concealing that he was ogling Laura. He was a tall, lean and distinguished looking man with gray hair and a mustache straight out of Hollywood casting for a shrewd country lawyer. His wife Kathy took over and introduced Jeff and Laura to the rest of the neighbors already there. Jeff noted that his wife�s description of Kathy Lloyd had not been exaggerated.

Jeff was a little put off by the fact his wife seemed to know everyone and that he was soon marginalized out of the small talk. He observed an additional level of intimacy among his wife and others that increased his unease. He was bored, standing off to the side, listening to one of his neighbors, Justine, complain about life. The woman changed the subject to Laura.

�If I had a body like hers, Rob wouldn�t let me out of the house wearing a dress like that. You must not be the jealous type.�

Jeff thought maybe I�m just the clueless type. �I can get jealous like the next man,� he said, �but my wife can be so single-minded I can�t do much to stop her.�

Justine looked him up and down in some sort of appraisal. She smiled and made a sound like �Mmmmmmm.� Jeff waited for more, but none came as Justine went off to mingle with others.

�You look lost, and I believe you�re a man not accustomed to being that way.� Kathy Lloyd had approached Jeff from behind, taking his arm though not before brushing her more than ample bosom against him. Seeing his empty glass, the hostess said, �Let�s get you a refill and we�ll get to know each other better.� Jeff let Kathy guide him to the bar and then a sofa. As they sat, Jeff�s attention was on Laura in an opposite corner of the large room, a man on either side of her, lost in conversation, punctuated by an occasional schoolgirl giggle from his wife.

�How long have you two been married?� Kathy asked.

�A year and a half.�

�Everything fine?�

Jeff took a sip then looked at her. �Why wouldn�t it be?� he said rather defensively.

�Okay, Jeff. Marvin always tells me I�m too blunt for my own good, but that�s how I am. When I first met your wife, I thought of Pamela Smart. Do you remember her?�

Jeff thought the name sounded familiar though he couldn�t place it, and said so to Kathy.

�Pam Smart was that gal in New Hampshire who talked her teenage lover into killing her husband. You see, she was rock-and-roll�a party girl who didn�t want to grow up and live the life of a staid, middle class wife. Her husband matured and had a decent career ahead of him. And she wanted none of it.�

�What�s all that got to do with me?�

�I see your wife over there in that revealing red dress, standing between Jorge and Rob who are one step away from a grope, and poof, I thought of Pam Smart; not that she�s gonna bump you off, mind you, but that she�s not ready to leave the single-life partying behind.�

He looked at the three of them again. Kathy was right: they did look too intimate for folks at a neighborhood party.

Kathy saw the look on his face and said to him, �You don�t have to listen to my advice. Who am I anyway, but a trophy wife to a man who overdoses on Viagra? But here it comes anyway: let it happen. Don�t try to stop something that�s bound to happen one way or the other.�

�You mean I should just let her slut around? Party like that Pam Smart woman? She�s my wife.�

�My advice is to let her sow her wild oats, as they used to say, and then she�ll grow up and realize the man she married was all she needed.� Kathy paused and then said, �You can get it up, right? I mean, you�re not one of those cuckolded husbands, are you?� Jeff thought of the perils of protesting too much, so he assured her he was capable and skilled and left it at that.

When the latino-looking man he assumed was Jorge placed his hand on his wife�s ass and did some apparent squeezing, Jeff asked Kathy for some info on the two men.

�I think you�re seeing things clearly, Jeff. Those two, Rob and Jorge have beautiful wives but still act like teenagers themselves, trying to �conquer� and take any new wife in the neighborhood. Most don�t succumb though your wife will, maybe even today.�

�Today?�

�Okay, here�s some more you need to learn. We�re not swingers here. It�s not like that. But Marvin and I realize the libidinous nature of our neighbors and basically open up the upstairs if that sort of thing is going to take place. Jorge and Rob know where the bedrooms are, and they�ll get your wife into one sooner or later, unless I�ve got the dynamics all wrong.�

By the look on his wife�s face, Jeff figured she had the dynamics just about right. Laura furtively glanced at her husband and then quickly looked away. Jorge did the same thing, like a kid checking to see if he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Jeff thought: my cookie jar. There may have been a smug expression on Jorge�s face, or maybe it was just the imagination of a suddenly cuckolded husband.

Feeling Kathy�s breasts rub against him, Jeff said, �You know, Kathy, you don�t have to push them into my face for me to notice. I�ve noticed them very well already.�

�Oooh, you like them don�t you,� she said with a giggle and a jiggle.

�Yeah, I�ll have dreams tonight.�

�Is that all?�

�I think so. I�m the mature one, remember?�

Kathy whispered to him, �I think you have a decision to make. Your wife keeps looking over here. Either she�s hoping you and I do something so she won�t feel guilty, or she�s hoping you�re not here so she can slip away.�

His imagination didn�t have to work overtime for Jeff to realize where Jorge�s hand had gone after it disappeared from view. Laura�s facial expression filled in the blanks.

Jeff turned his attention back to Kathy and said, �Let me see if I�ve got this right. You and your husband are the facilitators. You open your house to these parties so your friends can screw around while you safely say you�re not swingers and remain above it all. How did I do?�

She pulled away from him on the sofa a bit and said, �Bravo, you�ve proved that you�re a man and what your wife�s doing bothers you. Going caveman and causing a scene won�t solve anything, and would probably make things much worse. Yes, I�m a facilitator, but it�s not about breaking up marriages. It�s about keeping them going in spite of everyone�s libido.� She sputtered �Facilitator� while shaking her head before she continued, �I�m the one who talked Jorge and Rachel into going to Hedo. Jorge needs to grow out of his pussy chasing, but Rachel wasn�t willing to wait. At Hedo, as she put it, she was able to play the same game in front of him, fooling around with other men, including one I guess was extremely well-endowed. It may not have stopped Jorge�s philandering but it did give him pause.�

Jeff watched his wife gyrate as first Jorge then Rob had his hand under her dress and may have been finger fucking her right in front of everyone. He felt small right about then. �I don�t see any pause,� Jeff said sarcastically.

�Okay, one more time, what are you gonna do? Because you�ve got to do something, and I�ve already advised you on what not to do.�

�I hear you. Maybe it�s time for me to check out these guys� wives, considering they view mine as a conquest.�

Kathy looked like she was about to say something but closed her mouth. Instead, she stood, pulled Jeff to his feet and guided him to another room. He was introduced to Rachel and Justine, the latter he�d already met. Red-headed Justine was arm-in-arm with a man named Rudy. After introductions, she asked Kathy �Is the big bed spoken for?�

Kathy looked first at me before gazing back toward the room we vacated, saying �Maybe.�

Justine put two and two together nicely, as she most assuredly knew what her husband and Rachel�s were capable of. �You�re okay with it?� she asked Jeff.

�No, but I�ve been advised,� he said, glancing sidelong at Kathy, �to let things happen naturally.�

She giggled and said, �Ooooo I love a man who�s all natural. Would you like to join us, Jeff? A threesome would be nice, and Rudy won�t mind, will you, darling?�

Rudy said it was okay with him.

�You�re a great looking woman but I think I�ll pass this time,� Jeff said.

Justine leaned closer to him and whispered in his ear, �If you�re saving yourself for Kathy, she doesn�t play.� Jeff acknowledged her with a nod but said nothing more.

After they climbed the stairs, presumably looking for an open bedroom, Jeff asked Kathy, �Who is Rudy married to?�

She pointed toward a group chatting across the room. �Kim. She�s the long-legged brunette with the supermodel body and the short do.�

Jeff shook his head. �I don�t get it. Unless she�s got the personality of a pit viper, Kim looks a lot more desirable than Justine.�

�That�s a good assessment. Kim is more desirable, but she is openly bisexual, and maybe that�s something Rudy has a difficult time handling.�

�So, those gals over there aren�t just gossiping, I take it.�

�I think you take it correctly. A few will head to another bedroom shortly, I would imagine.�

He shook his head again. �What a neighborhood!� He thought he heard an orgasmic scream emanate from upstairs but he wasn�t sure, although his imagination became convinced it was Laura.

Kathy looked into his eyes with a little fire. �You think this neighborhood is any different from others? What did you call me�the facilitator? Maybe because I am, you�re seeing things you normally wouldn�t. How many times do you think your wife has climaxed by now? Would you feel better if you didn�t know she was upstairs with Jorge and Rob? What if we didn�t have parties like this? She�d be sneaking around and fucking guys anyway; you know it and I know it.�

Jeff didn�t want to think about counting his wife�s orgasms, nor did he want to think about Pam Smart and her dead husband. �You win, Kathy, you win.�

Kathy�s eyes suddenly sparked with a different fire. �What do I win?�

�I thought you were just the facilitator.�

�I like you, Jeff. No reason we can�t have a little no-baggage fun, is there?�

Jeff chuckled and said, �That�s where I think you�re wrong. There is always baggage.� Almost as punctuation, another orgasmic cry wafted to them from the stairwell.

Kathy�s fire dimmed a bit as she responded, �Maybe for some people, but maybe those folks don�t live life to the fullest. I pack my bags light, like carry-ons; less weight on your shoulders, if you know what I mean. Maybe you need to assess your own baggage. Like a song I heard once� �Do you have your baggage, or do your bags have you?� �

Jeff�s baggage proved heavy when he saw his wife descend the staircase with her two instant lovers right behind her. Even if he was clueless as to what happened upstairs, one look at her face told him all he needed to know. She had that �just fucked� face times ten. She avoided eye contact. Jorge and Rob had no such shame, staring at Jeff with sneering contempt. He thought, if I am the cuckolded husband I deserve that look, though someday someone will wipe those contemptuous smirks from your faces.

When Laura and Jeff finally drifted together, Jeff said, �Are you having fun?�

She didn�t answer him, and he knew the haughtiness would come soon enough to replace what was still guilt.

They didn�t talk to each other the rest of the evening. The word must have traveled fast�an easy lay was at the party�as Jeff saw several men canoodle or come close to it with Laura. At least she didn�t go back upstairs with anyone. While his wife circulated and got groped, Jeff spent some time talking with Rachel, Jorge�s wife. He openly questioned her about her husband, not shying away from his agitation over Jorge�s playing-around attitude.

Rachel said, �In this situation there are usually three types of men. Some would see their wife with another man and punch his lights out.� She looked him up and down. �I think you�d do a number on my husband if you did, but you didn�t.� She continued, �Another man might slink away, rightly feeling cuckolded and unable to do anything about it. I don�t think you�re that man either. In my experience the third kind of man would seek out the bastard�s wife and try to get even. Somehow, you�re here talking to me and haven�t tried anything yet. I�m impressed.�

Jeff chuckled at her assessment. �I�m glad I impressed someone.�

Rachel took his arm and snuggled closer. �Oh, you impressed more than me, I�ll tell you. Our host Mrs. Lloyd was ready to spread �em wide for you, and she doesn�t usually play like the rest of us do.�

Shrugging his shoulders, he said, �If I�m a fourth type of man in your analysis, then what will I do?�

�Even a self-assured man like you will eventually revert back to one of my three types, especially if your wife keeps feeding my husband�s adolescent ego.�

�Call me naïve, but why do you put up with it? Kathy Lloyd told me about your vacation. I have a feeling your husband got more out of it than you did.�

�I know I sound like one of those battered wives, but Jorge is a good man, and I hope someday he�ll grow out of it. As for Hedo, I think we both got what we wanted out of the vacation.� Rachel�s smile widened, �I bet I fooled around more than he did.�

Jeff remained silent, watching his mingling neighbors, though Laura wasn�t one of them he could see. Was she with someone else upstairs? Rachel was still talking about her husband and some of their experiences and how great a lover he was, while Jeff tried to focus on what she was saying and quickly losing interest.

�Are you thinking about her?� Rachel asked him suddenly. �Damn, that�s what I mean! You�re either quite a man or a cuckold after all.�

�I suppose if I protest the cuckolded husband tag it automatically brands me as one.�

�Actually, no. I still think you�re far from that but if you let your wife think you are, you�re doomed,� Rachel said as another woman approached and took her arm.

�Are you gonna have fun tonight?� the new woman asked Rachel.

Rachel answered, �I�m trying to size up some fun right here.� She pulled the new woman closer to both of them and then introduced her. �Jeff, this is Lynn. Lynn, this is Jeff, Laura�s husband. They�re new in the neighborhood.�

Lynn gave Jeff the once over. �You�re better looking than I pictured. Why she�s chasing after an old man like my Peter is beyond me. Let�s go upstairs,� she said while taking Jeff�s hand and giving it a tug.

Rachel laughed and said to her friend, �He�s too much the straight shooter, plus he loves his wife,� exaggeratingly pronouncing the word loves.

What Jeff couldn�t figure out was why any of these husbands would fool around with anyone other than their lovely wives. Though older than Jeff, raven-haired Rachel and blond Lynn were MILF knockouts; and he had to admit that under different circumstances he�d take both of them upstairs. So what did that say about him? Maybe he was cuckolded tonight after all. With parting words the two women went their way arm-in-arm, leaving Jeff alone again. He mingled for a while though he mainly remained the wallflower of the party, silently observing the show. The men he spoke with talked work or sports, not sex. Whenever he saw Laura she was hugging the arm of a different man. Seeing her like that made him think of the phrase �joined at the hip.� How many men had �joined� her this evening?

�I�ve been looking for you,� said a voice behind Jeff. He turned to face his host, Marvin Lloyd, who extended his hand for a handshake. �That wife of yours is quite the party animal. How do you keep up with her?�

Regardless of Kathy�s comments about Viagra, Jeff wondered if Mr. Lloyd had joined others in screwing Laura. Jeff chuckled insincerely and answered, �I usually can, but not at this party.�

�You�re right, son,� said the trim yet gray-haired man, �My wife�s parties are the wildest, and if you tried to keep up with your woman your dick would fall off!� He punctuated his comment with a loud laugh and a friendly punch at Jeff�s arm. Marvin Lloyd abruptly left Jeff and went to speak with other guests, leaving Jeff to ponder what the old man knew or worse, had participated in.

As the party wound down and guests began to leave, three of the wives, Rachel, Lynn and Kim, came downstairs giggling and disheveled, leaving no doubt as to what they�d been doing, especially with Lynn twirling thong panties around her finger. Probably for the first time during the evening, Rachel latched onto her husband and they talked. To Jeff, Jorge�s smug look meant he was probably detailing his sexual conquests. Contrary to Rachel�s earlier assessment, Jeff would enjoy nothing better than to walk up to him and punch his lights out. He may have followed through if Jorge had looked his way, but he didn�t. He saved his smoldering anger for his wife.

Laura approached her husband and asked if he was ready to leave. �I�ve been ready for a while,� he answered through gritted teeth.

They went home in silence. Jeff waited for Laura to say something; even throwing the whole sordid thing in his face would have been better than her silence. Finally, as they were getting into bed, he implored her to talk about what she�d done and why.

�Things between us used to be exciting. We did daring things, and that thrilled me. But that�s not you anymore. I want things to be exciting again, not just a nine-to-five existence. I�haven�t felt this great in a long time. The party�was what I needed,� she said with a sigh.

�So I guess it�s all on me,� Jeff said. �Besides the fact I work hard and I�m not so exciting anymore, what else is it? Are Jorge and Rob more endowed? Are they better lovers? Did they buy you more flowers, or profess their love for you? What are my deficiencies so I can work on them?�

�See what I mean? You throw that you �work hard� at me because I�m not working. What about my needs?� Laura turned away from Jeff, and when he touched her she pulled away more and said, �I�ve already had some of the best orgasms of my life tonight. Let�s just go to sleep.�

Sleep didn�t come easily to either one of them.

The following Monday during a break at work, Jeff did some research on Pam Smart, the woman Kathy Lloyd mentioned. The case was quite notorious at the time, even spawning movies, so there was much written about it on the Internet. Smart�s motivation for having an underage lover and killing her husband seemed eerily similar to what Laura had said. What Jeff thought of maturity�settling down to a career and leaving his carefree bachelorhood years behind�seemed to coincide with what Greg Smart did. The problem was that Smart�s wife still wanted to be a teenager and rock-and-roll forever. Jeff used to think that he�d won a contest of sorts when Laura accepted his marriage proposal. She�d been a hottie (and still was) and well-pursued by many men. She obviously missed those pre-engagement days and wanted to recapture the feeling of being desired. He obviously had to provide that feeling and not leave it to other men to do so.

Jeff stopped at the florist on the way home, considering the bouquet he purchased as a peace offering and a promise. He surprised Laura sitting at her computer, likewise surprising himself because she was watching a porn video. She jumped and quickly shut it down, though Jeff certainly knew what he saw.

�What was that?� he asked while handing her the bouquet of flowers.

�Oh, nothing. Just a DVD that Kathy gave me to look at.�

�You�re obviously flushed, so it must be a hot one. Can I watch it?�

�No�no�it�s not meant�er�for you,� was Laura�s cryptic reply. She changed the subject by gushing over the flowers.

Though he hadn�t recognized the participants during his half-second view of the video, Jeff was astute enough to surmise that what she had been watching was recorded at the Lloyd�s house, either at last night�s party or a previous affair. He wondered if the video was of his wife, explaining its allure to her. When he had a chance to sneak back to the computer, there was no DVD loaded in the machine. Laura received the video in some other way, confirming his suspicion. He had Kathy Lloyd�s cell number so he gave her a call.

�Explain the video,� he demanded once niceties were out of the way.

Kathy sighed and said, �You weren�t supposed to know about that. Very few people do. Did she show you? Is that how you know?�

�She was watching it when I got home and I surprised her. I really didn�t see content but I figured out the rest anyway. Was it her and�?�

�I don�t want to talk about it on the phone, but you deserve to know. Can you come over here? Marvin�s not home.�

Jeff said he would, then made up an excuse for Laura�s sake, telling her he was going to see another neighbor about doing some work on their house. He walked to the Lloyd�s and Kathy met him at the door.

�You need to know the cameras were Marvin�s idea, not mine,� she said once they were seated on the sofa. �My husband can�t get it up for me but somehow he manages when he watches someone else.�

Jeff said, �At the party I wondered why he made a comment about Laura being so hot I couldn�t keep up with her or my, quote, dick would fall off, end quote.�

�The idiot said that?� she said, shaking her head.

Like a hypnotist�s subject, Jeff became mesmerized by watching Kathy�s breasts sway and jiggle as she talked. He said, �Don�t get me wrong, but your husband IS an idiot if he can�t get aroused with you.�

Kathy laughed. �If I heard that from Jorge or Jason I�d chalk it up to the usual pick-up try. Somehow I think you�re a much more sincere man and you mean it. I think it�s sweet, so maybe Laura�s an idiot too.� She grew serious and added, �Would you like to see it?�

�See what?� he asked. She told him the �it� was the video of his wife�s threesome.

�Remember the things we talked about at the party. You didn�t kill Jorge, nor did you kill your wife, so maybe you need to see what she got out of it, or more accurately what she didn�t get out of it. Hopefully you�ll realize it�s about her and not about you.�

Jeff was torn, but eventually he believed if he never saw it the idea would haunt him and fester, more than seeing the video would. He let Kathy lead him to a room she called the den. She switched on the large screen television and various electronics with a remote before starting the video.

�It�s already cued?� Jeff asked as Kathy directed him to a love seat.

�I�m sorry,� she said, �I told you that Marvin likes to watch. He was watching it last night.�

Jeff was angrier about Marvin Lloyd watching his wife fuck than he was angry with Laura for doing it. He realized that might change after viewing the video, but he steeled himself anyway. Kathy sat next to him as it began. It started with three women writhing in a daisy chain on a big bed, each one�s face in the crotch of another. He recognized the trio as Rachel, Kim and Lynn; and even in his state of barely repressed anger he still marveled at how great each one looked, especially Kim.

Kathy wasn�t looking at the TV. She was looking at Jeff. �Confirmation: I�m glad you�re a red-blooded male. It turns me on too.�

�Okay, where�s the part with Laura in it?� he said impatiently.

�Hold on, I�ll find it,� she said as she advanced from one �chapter� to another and then back again. During this jumping around search, Jeff noticed several of his neighbors in various combinations of twos or threes. One person he didn�t see was Kathy. Suddenly, she found the scene with Laura and hit play.

Laura giggled as Jorge and Rob ushered her into the bedroom and immediately pulled her dress off. Jeff was surprised to see she had no panties on underneath. That was the least of his surprises. To Jeff, Laura looked drunk, though he hadn�t seen her drink that much. Even if he wasn�t angry, what he watched had no chance of arousing him. Laura had been nothing more than one of those blow-up dolls to the two men. They took turns filling her orifices until depositing their semen in one of them. To Laura, it didn�t seem to matter. He saw her face. He knew when she was cumming. Regardless, there was no joy in the sex. Jorge and Rob clearly didn�t care about her; they simply used her as a receptacle. She didn�t seem to care about being that receptacle either, whether mouth, ass or cunt. Jeff felt like he was going to puke.

�Turn it off,� he said.

Kathy said, just above a whisper, �For your wife, the excitement was all about what happened before they went into that bedroom. To her, the journey was much more rewarding than the destination. Like I said, it�s not about you, and it wasn�t about Jorge or Rob.�

�Okay, I get the picture.�

�Do you? Look at those guys. I don�t know what you�ve got, but they�re not that endowed, so it�s not about size. It�s apparently not about technique either, since I�ve seen these guys in action on video before, and trust me they�re not pros.�

�Yes�yes�I get it. I get what you said about it being like that Pam Smart gal. She wants to be a teenager again and have all the guys chase her. Look at her�them�like teenagers, none of them thought about protection. Stupid and immature. I�m not going to stoop to that level. If she wants a wild life, then let her have one.�

Jeff stood to walk out. Kathy blocked him, saying �This is stupid. I don�t care about your wife. I want you, like no man I�ve wanted in a long time. Take me to bed right now. We�ll make our own video.�

�I�m sorry, Kathy. I�m sorry that I do love and care about my wife. I�m sorry I have to disappoint you. You�re definitely a desirable woman, but I can�t.�

A tear trickled down her cheek as she said, �I knew you wouldn�t. It�s what makes you a man among the boys.�

He left the Lloyds� house unsure of whether or not he felt any better for viewing the video, and conflicted about Kathy�s advances. Maybe he should have taken her up on her offer, he thought, but what would that make him? From cuckold to jealous reciprocator? Laura didn�t ask him a single question when he got home. Somehow he sensed that she�d watched herself in her moment of slutting glory again while he was out.

Jeff was correct. Laura had watched the video over and over again. Two men wanting me� fucking me, she thought as she furiously masturbated. She wasn�t looking at the men�s faces as she came; she focused instead on the semen dripping from her ass and pussy. She had no thought of condoms at the party, and had none now.

For about a week things remained cool between them until one night when Laura wore her sexiest nightgown to bed and asked Jeff to fuck her. The sex seemed better for her than for him. While she orgasmed several times, he kept thinking about the video and wondering who she was fantasizing about every time she came. Those kinds of thoughts don�t do much for a man�s libido. His orgasm wasn�t much of one.

When they were invited to the next party at the Lloyds, Laura was ecstatic. When she told Jeff, he said, �Who will it be this time? Jorge again, or is it Peter or Rudy or Jason�s turn?�

She scoffed and said, �Don�t talk like that. Nothing much happened last time so there won�t be a �this time� either.�

Obviously, she didn�t know her husband knew about, and watched, the video of �nothing much.� She started to wonder when Jeff said, �Make sure you�re using protection.�

Unlike the first party, Jeff didn�t much care how he dressed, though he didn�t look like a slob. On the other hand, Laura dressed in full hooker mode, wearing a form-fitting knit dress that left no curve to the imagination. She wore no bra or panties and was already wet thinking of how the men at the party would react. Jeff couldn�t ignore how absolutely hot she looked, even as he imagined with chagrin the other men�s reaction.

The word must have spread around the neighborhood, Jeff thought, though he also wondered if she�d been making the rounds between parties. No sooner had they arrived at the party, Laura was surrounded.

�Word travels fast,� Kathy said as she greeted Jeff.

�My thoughts exactly.�

Kathy sidled up closer and said sotto voce, �In that dress it�s not just the men who are going to want to jump her bones. Damned if she isn�t the sexiest one in the room.�

Jeff chuckled as his eyes swept the party crowd, seeing Kim, all long and lovely legs in a slinky and quite short dress. Then he saw Rachel talking to Jason�s wife Pam; both ladies flushed with excitement and exuding sex appeal. His eyes turned to Rob�s Justine, whose slight halter dress hid none of her assets. Finally, he turned back to his host and said, �I don�t think so. My wife�s a bombshell but she�s not the only one at this party.�

Kathy blushed, seeing how Jeff was looking at her. She couldn�t shake the newfound feeling she had for the man. Her breasts ached, her nipples tingled and her panties moistened as she daydreamed of them upstairs in one of the bedrooms.

Jeff was perceptive enough to know where Kathy�s mind had just gone. He leaned into her and gave her a lingering kiss on the cheek before saying, �You should mingle with your guests, not just me. I�m going to get myself a drink and then stand back and observe all the fun.�

She tried to tamp down her arousal as she walked over to Rachel and Pam, who�d been joined by Lynn and Justine.

Rachel was the first to notice. �Christ, you�re horny!� she said to Kathy.

Justine chimed in, �It�s Jeff, isn�t it? Oooooo, you�re gonna play!�

Kathy reluctantly admitted her attraction to the new neighbor. �He won�t cheat on his wife, no matter how many of your damned husbands fuck his wife.�

�But you�re still hot for him,� said Lynn, �even though he�s a cuckolded husband who won�t play around? He�s not in the closet, is he?�

�He sure didn�t act gay when I showed�� she said then stopped short.

Pam said, �Omigod, you showed him video? Of his wife?!�

�Yeah, during the last party, with Rob and Jorge.�

The ladies all looked around the room as they digested Kathy�s admission. They saw Jeff off to the side, a drink in his hand, watching several men gathered around his grinning wife. They saw a couple of them, Jason and Rudy, with hands up and under Laura�s dress, trying to be nonchalant and failing miserably, since both had noticeable bulges in their pants.

Pam was the first woman to let the flower of jealousy bloom. �Fucking Jason. What does she have that I don�t?�

Justine jumped in, �I mean, yeah, Rob plays around but this fixation on the new bitch goes beyond the fun we have.�

�I felt the same way about her and Jorge at the last party,� Rachel said. �Like, he can�t go one second without sniffing some woman�s cunt, but after the party the bastard talked so much about the slut I almost threw him out of the house.�

The group grew by one as Kim joined them. �You guys comparing notes over here? I don�t get it either.�

They knew what she meant. Through many parties at the Lloyds, and much swapping and fooling around, it took the addition of Laura to the mix to tip the scales. Kathy spoke for all of them when she said, �Laura has been laying the foundation since the day they moved in, going around the neighborhood like a needy beggar but instead of money she was begging for attention and with her looks your husbands took the bait and gave it to her.�

�You�re right,� said Lynn. �It�s not like she just wants to play like we do, it�s like she�s trying to take over.�

�So, what do we do about it?� Rachel said.

While the ladies were discussing his wife, Jeff watched things unfold around Laura. She had no less than six men surrounding her, with some going beyond propinquity and fondling her openly. She loved every touch, every bit of attention. By then her tight dress had hiked up to expose the bottom of her cheeks and a hint of freshly shaved pussy. Many at the party were watching them too; some looking on in amusement while others shook their heads in antipathy. Jeff knew that sooner or later the procession would travel upstairs to a bedroom. His wife getting gang-banged? He didn�t want to see that video.

What tipped the balance was when Marvin Lloyd approached the group and specifically Laura. His voice was loud enough for all to hear. �Laura, right? You�re one sexy woman, Laura. You going to take on all these hungry men?� he said, and then he laughed heartily. His hand went straight to Laura�s pussy and stayed there for several moments, and when he pulled his fingers away he openly put them to his mouth and said, �Soaked, slippery and sweet, just like we like �em.�

The whole scene turned Jeff�s stomach. He looked away and immediately met Kathy�s eyes. She too saw and heard her husband�s spectacle, and looked equally as repulsed as Jeff was. She left the other women and went to him.

�I�m sorry, Jeff. The bastard didn�t have to do that in front of everyone.�

�Well, he�s obviously captivated by my wife too.�

Facing the stairs they watched Jason, the biggest and strongest of the men pick Laura up into his arms. He said, �You�re mine first, before these other bozos.�

She kicked her legs, enough to shimmy her dress hem up to her waist, exposing herself fully and giggled. �Are you as big as you look?�

�Your ass is gonna find out soon enough.�

Kathy thought she saw a spritz of liquid come out of Laura�s pussy at the exact moment Jason said that, though it may have simply been a trick of the light. Right behind Jason as he climbed the stairs with his trophy were the other men, Rudy, Peter, and Rob. Jorge, it seemed, had moved on and was feeling up another neighbor.

Jason�s wife, Pam, joined them and immediately groused about her husband�s boorish behavior. She apologized to Jeff too. �You look pissed and I don�t blame you. What�s wrong with your wife, anyway? You are having sex with her, aren�t you?�

�It�s not starvation, that�s for sure,� he said with a chuckle. �I think Kathy�s right. She�s trying to return to her teens in some perverse way to recapture something she thinks she lost. I guess being married to one man isn�t good enough.�

Kathy whispered, almost to herself, �Sometimes it isn�t.�

Jeff looked at her. While they�d been talking, Kim, Lynn, Justine and Rachel joined the trio. They all saw the hurt on Jeff�s face as he watched Jason carry Laura up the stairs and toward a sure gang-bang. They also saw how their friend Kathy was looking at Jeff.

Rachel spoke up first. She turned to face the other women and said, �Okay, let�s get these two upstairs so they can finally stop thinking about each other and do something about it.�

Kathy and Jeff protested but it didn�t do much good as the five friends propelled them upstairs. When they passed one bedroom door, Jeff caught a glimpse of his wife�s ass in the air and men all around her. They didn�t let him stop to see more. Down the hall to another bedroom they led the pair. Jeff never imagined five sexy women getting out of their clothes faster than these did.

Like a harem of Miss Americas, Kim, Rachel, Justine, Pam, and Lynn busied about undressing Jeff and a stunned Kathy. Kim muttered �Look at those tits!� as Kathy�s were exposed. Jeff was indeed looking. He never dreamed he�d have all these beautiful naked women administering to him, nor did he plan on it as some sort of retaliation, but here they were. When Pam saw Jeff�s erection, she barked, �And my husband thinks he�s big! I�m going second.� The ladies teased both of them orally in bizarre group foreplay while making sure Kathy and Jeff could maintain eye contact throughout.

Kathy practically shouted, �Okay, okay, dammit, I�m ready!�

Kim crept between Jeff�s legs, unrolled a condom onto his super-stiff cock and winked, saying �Do her good. She deserves it.�

Jeff did her good.

As he got between Kathy�s legs and slowly entered her, he opened his mouth to say something, but she put a finger to his lips and whispered, �You don�t need to explain or justify. Love me for the moment. That�s all I ask.�

He fucked her missionary for several minutes, and she came quickly and loudly. While the rest of the women cheered them on as they masturbated singly or in pairs, Kathy rolled Jeff onto his back and rode him cowgirl, her enhanced, firm breasts bouncing nicely and demanding that he fondle them. He moaned, �Money well spent,� which drew a chuckle from Kathy�s lips that didn�t linger, as she was once more overcome by the rapid ramping of her orgasm.

�Oh God, I�m gonna cum again!� she cried as once more the blissful contractions consumed her.

�Me tooooooooooooooooooo!� hollered Rachel as Justine�s finger fucked her in a blur of motion. Others were cumming too, as cries echoed around the bedroom.

Jeff never gave much thought to his sustainability until he heard Kim say, �He�s got amazing staying power! I�m taking him home with me!� He flipped Kathy over and once again fucked her missionary, lying on her large, beautiful breasts like two pillows. Both had their eyes open and kept them locked together. Just before her eyes lost focus and began to roll back into her head, Kathy whispered, �Thank you, Jeff�thank you�� Her third and his glorious first, their orgasms sent shivers from each linked body back into the other as they seemed to go on forever.

When Lynn climaxed from Pam�s tender touch followed by Justine�s voiced worry that somehow they�d blocked the camera�s sight line, the surreal little orgy came back to some semblance of reality. Based on where Justine was looking when she commented on the camera, Jeff spotted the pin-hole unit camouflaged within a spray of flowers. The ladies were all talking to Kathy about the experience so they didn�t see Jeff flash his middle finger toward the lens.

�Do you think we gave him a good show?� Kim said. Everyone there knew who the �him� was. After all, they�d been on camera before. Except for Jeff and Kathy. They were no longer virgins of Marvin Lloyd�s little productions. Jeff thought, I hope you enjoy the show, you bastard.

Rachel gave Kim a kiss and then said, �Now it�s time to give everyone else a good show, including Laura.� They all dressed to return to the party, although Kathy and Jeff lingered on the bed.

She said, �I knew you were the man I needed, even if it�s only this one time. Somehow, I think you valued me more than just for these,� she said while jiggling one of her augmented breasts. Your wife will learn soon enough not to invest in fool�s gold, and return to the real thing.�

�I wish I could do more for you. I know you�re unhappy, and frankly I don�t care much for your husband. But I love Laura so I can only hope this is a phase she�s going through, like you said.�

They kissed long and deeply before they too dressed and returned to the party. As Rachel predicted, all eyes were on the �show� made by the procession coming down the stairs. Jeff heard snippets of the gossip. He didn�t care what they said; a party at the Lloyds� now filled a whole new dimension in his universe.

He got a drink and then slowly circled the partygoers until he approached his wife, who was talking to Jorge and Rudy with none of the overt touching that went on earlier.

Jorge said, �You�ve got a hot one here,� as he made a show of hugging Laura closer.

�Don�t I know it,� Jeff replied. �I�m a lucky man. You guys know what it�s like to be lucky too, right? I mean, Rachel and Kim are pretty hot too,� he said as he gazed back at the stairwell. In doing so, he caught Rachel�s eye. She pulled on Kim�s arm and together they approached Jeff.

The two women made a show of kissing him on the cheek before Kim said to her husband, �This guy is goooooooooood!�

Rudy said, aghast, �You mean you all�?�

�Unlike others, we don�t flaunt it or kiss and tell,� Rachel said while looking at her husband. Jorge, like the obvious asshole he was, answered Rachel by grabbing Laura�s ass and giving it a squeeze. Laura didn�t look like she enjoyed it but quickly pretended that she did.

Jeff knew his wife, and knew that Kathy�s assessment of her motivation was correct, so he discerned that Rachel and Kim�s attempt to provoke jealousy wouldn�t work. This �new� Laura demonstrated a self-importance that minimized jealousy, as she viewed anything that her husband did as tit-for-tat payback and non-consequential to her newfound fulfillment. She was the center of attention and everyone else was a moon that could orbit her or not at their choosing.

For weeks afterward, things were so cold between them that Jeff began to think that their marriage was irrevocably broken. He called Kathy�s cell but she didn�t answer. Was everything he�d done a mistake?

The Lloyds� next party was to be an outdoor one, enjoying the hot summer day and evening by their large pool. Laura bought a new bikini more revealing than anything she�d worn before, even on their honeymoon. Depressed Jeff didn�t want to go and almost said no, but figured a no-show on his part would be like surrender. Besides, he wanted to see Kathy so badly and find out why she�d been avoiding him. Had their liaison hurt her? Did she regret it that much? He had to know.

Kathy Lloyd greeted them at the door, her amazing breasts almost seductively too much for her bikini top. She gave no clue to her feelings for Jeff, causing him to wonder if she ever really had any and that she�d used him no differently than Laura had been used by Jorge, Rob, Jason, Rudy and Peter.

Once at the pool, Laura paraded around, gathering neighborhood men like a light bulb gathers moths. Jeff still didn�t understand it all. He looked at Kim in her thong bikini and couldn�t fathom Rudy chasing anyone else but his wife with her supermodel body. He thought Rachel and Pam were likewise especially sexy in their bikinis. Was the attraction no different than always�the forbidden fruit? Or was it simply the novelty of a different body under or over you? Jeff noticed Marvin Lloyd giving him the evil eye from across the pool, and assumed he hadn�t enjoyed the last video.

On the pretense of going to the bathroom, Jeff went into the house looking for absent Kathy. Thankfully she was alone in the kitchen and they could talk.

�Are you okay?� Jeff asked. �You�re not mad at me, are you?�

�No, I�m not angry. Frankly, since the last party I don�t know how to feel, but that�s not your fault.�

Jeff didn�t quite believe he was off the hook. �You may not be mad at me but I think your husband is.�

�The bastard will get over it. He always does.�

�What do you mean about not knowing how to feel?�

She laughed and said, �About you, dummy. I�m not a one-night-stand woman, and regardless of the nature of my marriage I don�t plan to change. I enjoyed every second of our time in my bed, but don�t see how it can happen again.�

Momentarily speechless, Jeff was forced to once again confront where his marriage was headed. Finally he said, �Though I would love to, I can�t see it happening again either.�

�You see, that�s what I mean. I�ve never known a man like you. Honest with your feelings and never giving up. If only Laura knew what she�s got; now, give me a kiss and let�s join the party. It�s mine, after all.�

The kiss lingered on for a long time, each of them lost in thoughts of what they had, and didn�t have in life. When he returned to poolside, any pretence the Lloyds had that their parties weren�t swinger parties was shattered. Toplessness reigned. Women were all over men who weren�t spouses. More than one man had his stiff dick out and being ministered to.

Jeff looked around for Laura as everyone yelled at Kathy to remove her top. A general hoot was raised when she did; her freshly unencumbered beauties truly a spectacle to behold. Jeff noticed Marvin watching something happening at a far corner of the pool, and when he looked there, he saw his wife with her back to Jason. It didn�t take much imagination (or splashing water) to realize that he was fucking her. Marvin Lloyd, voyeur supreme, actually had a bulge in his swim shorts.

The whole dynamics changed in seconds when Lynn and Peter showed up with their daughter, Malory. The girl wore a bikini only slightly less skimpy than Kim�s thong one. She looked fourteen or fifteen to Jeff, but Kathy told him she was home from college. Lynn and Peter grinned like the doting parents they were as first Jorge, then Rob, Rudy, Chris and a couple of other men closed in around the girl.

Jeff sought out Kathy again and asked her about Malory and her parents. �Has she been here before? I can�t imagine her and her folks don�t know the score, especially with what�s going on,� he said as he swept his arm around, indicating all the exposed body parts and salacious action.

�Don�t worry about that. Lynn and Peter know exactly what our parties are like, and besides, the girl�s a nymphomaniac of the highest order.�

As they talked, Malory�s top came off, exposing cute, pointed cupcakes with prominent nipples. Jeff looked around the pool area to see every pair of eyes focused on the girl. Like an everyday occurrence, Jason climbed out of the pool, naked, still semi-erect after fucking Laura, and walked toward the assemblage.

�Hi Mal. Did you miss me?�

�I don�t miss you. I just miss a certain part of you, but it seems like it�s already been used.�

�Don�t worry; it was nothing, just a tune-up to get him ready for you.�

Jeff didn�t think Laura (who at the moment was getting out of the pool while clumsily trying to put her bikini bottoms back on) heard his demeaning remark, though Rachel and Justine did. They went to Jason�s wife, Pam, and berated her for letting her husband play with the young woman.

�Oh, let him have his fun,� Pam said. �Whenever he fucks Malory he�s a stallion with me afterwards, and I�ll never complain about that.�

�Speaking of a stallion, hi Jeff,� Kim said, smiling, as Kathy walked away and the ignored wives gathered around him. �I don�t know about you gals, but if Laura doesn�t want him and Kathy doesn�t want another go, then I think I�ll trade Rudy in for a better, younger model.�

Now out of the pool, Laura saw the neighborhood women surrounding her husband at the same time the men surrounded the new girl, and wondered why she�d been fucked by Jason and then abandoned. The aggregation of men appealed to her more than the cluster of women (and her husband) so she joined them.

However, in the category of attention-getting females, on this day Laura was no match for Malory.

It was apparent to the neighborhood newcomers like Jeff that Jason and maybe a couple of the other men had a sexual history with Malory. Jeff couldn�t fathom, no matter how liberal they were, how Lynn and Peter could openly pass their daughter around like a sexual party favor. Kim whispered in Jeff�s ear, �Pam�s gonna be pissed. Look at Jason�s cock, erect while he brazenly teases the girl, not caring who is looking.�

�Why is this any different to Pam than other parties?� Jeff asked. �She knew he fucked others, like my wife. Is it just Mal�s age?�

Kim answered, �It�s one thing to hide in an upstairs bedroom and do it. Quite another to fuck someone in front of everyone else. I�ve warned Rudy about going too far. Besides��

�It all seems �too far� to me. Especially since everyone knows Marvin videos it all for his jollies,� Jeff said.

Kim whispered in his ear, ��Mal just loves anal.� Yep, that and her age might make it a game changer, Jeff thought.

Jason pulled a giggling Malory toward one of the lounge chairs. While he lay down, Mal dropped her bottoms and with more giggles impaled herself on his erection. Kathy Lloyd was visibly upset at the brazen, open sex act, and she stormed into the house. The rapt audience watched them for a while until others paired up and went at it in various spots around and in the pool. Marvin was front and center in the �audience.�

Laura ended up in a threesome with Rudy and Justine, though she wasn�t happy that Rudy seemed more interested in fucking Rob�s wife than her.

In perhaps the strangest tableau of all, Malory�s parents did a spouse swap with the younger Jorge and Rachel and went at it on both sides of Jason and Mal. The duos�Peter and Rachel, Lynn and Jorge�spent as much time watching Jason and Malory fuck like wild animals than they paid attention to each other.

Kim said to Jeff, �Some floor show, huh? Proud parents.�

He looked at his wife, surely not as happy as she figured she�d be, and then turned to Kim. �Yes, quite a show,� he said, �but one I could do without. Why did Kathy let it come to this, or am I missing something?�

�This is new, and I don�t think Kathy�s very happy about it.�

�Yeah, I noticed her stomping off into the house.�

�You care about her,� Kim said. �And I think you�re just what she needs, but you won�t leave your wife and she won�t give up all the rich perks no matter what the old fart does or doesn�t do.�

Right then the �old fart� surprised everyone by dropping his shorts and sporting an honest-to-goodness erection, probably bolstered by Viagra but nonetheless there for all to see. He beckoned two of the unoccupied wives over to him and like zombies they obliged, both taking turns sucking his cock.

�You�re right, Kim,� Jeff said. �I do like Kathy, and I like you too. Months ago I may have wondered how good women like you and Kathy Lloyd could stand watching their husbands constantly screw other women, but now I�m doing the same thing, watching my wife become a wanton slut. I don�t know her anymore.�

�Thank you for the �good women� part, although I�m not that happy with myself and how I�ve let things slide with Rudy.� She turned to face Jeff and pressed her breasts into his equally bare chest. �Please take me to a bedroom and make love to me. Consider it a mercy fuck.�

Jeff, though flabbergasted by the surprise proposition, grew hard in spite of his reservations. �With you, Kim, it wouldn�t be a mercy fuck in the least.�

Hand in hand like dating schoolchildren they entered the house, walked upstairs and located an empty bedroom. The sex was gentle and lingering, and neither could remember anything remotely like this with their spouse in a long time. He sucked on one of her perfect nipples as she held his ass in her hands and urged him deeper. Except for one utterance of �Yes, Jeff, oh yes� from Kim�s lips, they were silent until they arched their backs in unison as their spurting fluids warmly mingled.

Jeff was surprised to see that she was crying. �Did I hurt you?� he asked, unsure of anything else to say.

�No, oh no, you didn�t hurt me. I needed that so badly, and you gave me what I asked for. You made love to me; you gave me much more than sex. You�re a special man, and I hate your wife with every fiber of my being.�

Jeff said, �Hate�s too strong, but yeah, I detest Rudy, Marvin Lloyd�Jorge, Jason�the lot of them�for trivializing what should be special.� Lying next to the beautiful woman, he was pleasantly surprised that he hadn�t wilted even after cumming so copiously.

Kim whispered, �Yes, this is special,� as she pulled him onto her and guided him back into her yet unsatisfied vagina.

Later, when they rejoined the party by the pool, the orgy was over and everyone had turned their attention to food and drink, with most of the women having their tops back on. Everyone except Malory, who was in the pool with Jorge behind her, suspiciously looking as if she was getting it up the ass, if one was to assess her facial expression.

Laura approached Jeff as soon as Kim left his side and went to join her husband, Rudy. �Can we go home now? I�ve had enough partying for today,� she said.

�I guess we can. But first let me thank Kathy for having us over.�

Jeff didn�t care about offering the hostess any thanks; he just wanted to make sure she was all right. He found her in the kitchen, still gloriously topless and ostensibly cleaning up, though he knew it was mostly an act of hiding from her guests.

�Yes Jeff, I�m okay,� she answered when he asked her. �I signed on for this tour, didn�t I?�

�Can I do something?�

�No. You have your life�your wife�and you did enough for me already the night of the last party.� She paused, and then without eye contact, said �Kim�s hooked on you now, too.�

�We were recorded?� Jeff blurted. �You watched it?�

Kathy nodded. �Wished it was me the whole time.�

All Jeff could say was that he was sorry.

After they were home, Laura was lost in her own thoughts. Viewing the secret videos over and over again had stripped away much of the excitement she�d felt at the time: those virile men all wanting her. Her! Since she married Jeff, she thought he hadn�t made her feel the way she had in the Lloyds� upstairs bedroom with all those cocks. But now, looking back through the unblinking camera lens, she saw the reality. She saw their lewd and juvenile sneers as they creamed inside one or another of her holes. She was a piece of meat, nothing more. When they had their fill they went on to hunt different prey.

Like Malory.

She knew now that her needy pursuit had nothing to do with Jeff. Whether or not it was on the DVD by mistake, she watched the women all around her husband, and how they fluffed him and Kathy, getting them ready for what looked like fantastic sex. When she saw it the first time she was angry, but subsequent viewings confirmed that her husband was the best lover she knew. And Kathy Lloyd knew it too. Jeff hadn�t changed, she had.

Kathy! Laura saw the way Mrs. Lloyd looked at Jeff even at the first party. Kathy Lloyd had everything, and if she didn�t then she could afford to buy it, like her amazing tits. What she couldn�t buy in that sense was a good man to love her. Mr. Lloyd was an old jerk, albeit a rich one. Laura bristled at the memory of how he�d leered at her all the time, and of course now knowing about the secret videos and how he must have enjoyed watching them. What a fool she�d been. Kathy knew a good man when she saw one, and it wasn�t Jorge or Rob or Rudy or any of the others; the good man that was taken for granted by his wife and made to watch as she wallowed in the mud. The final slap in the face was when she saw Jeff and Kim sneak off into the house today and the look on Kim�s face when they came back out.

Kim! So gorgeous, and with a perfect model�s body. How could she compete with that? Like the others, Rudy may have eagerly fucked her, but Laura realized that Kim was sleeping in his bed at night, not her. How could she blame Jeff for succumbing to Kim�s charms, especially after watching his wife repeatedly make a fool of herself like she had?

She showered and put on the sexiest nightgown she had, then offered herself to her husband as the best apology. Jeff, needless to say was skeptical.

�Like a rebound fuck? The neighborhood men didn�t fuck you enough?�

�I�m so sorry, Jeff. You have every right to be angry with me, and I deserve it all.�

�Did jealousy do this?�

�No, not jealousy, not really, but maybe what you did and didn�t do opened my eyes. Remember that Marillion song we liked so much�The Party?

�Yes, I remember that song. What of it?�

�I�ve been like that girl, seduced into something I thought I needed. Needing to feel a part of something exciting, needing something I thought was missing.� Laura softly sang two lines of the song.

�A house full of music
And a hat full of wonder�

�My love wasn�t missing,� Jeff said.

�I know that now. The attention I got from the neighborhood made me think something was missing. My �hat full of wonder� wasn�t drugs or whatever it was in the song. Mine was the strange cocks that got hard for me�for ME,� she vehemently said. The men played on my insecurity, and I lapped it up and became the fuck-hole they wanted me to be. And I was stupid enough to believe I was anything more that a toy with holes to screw.�

Jeff took her in his arms as she softly cried. After he whispered, �The woman I married is much more than a fuck hole,� he slipped the nightgown from her trembling body and began to explore her all over with his lips. He kissed and fondled her breasts until she pushed his head downward, wanting his attention given to a different spot. He obliged by slowly moving his lips down and around her navel and over her bald pubis. He didn�t attack her clitoris. He lingered there, slipping his moistened tongue around the inside of her labia until he tasted the juices that were all hers. When he tantalizingly arrived at her clit, the pink pearl was swollen and stiff.

Laura murmured, �Oh, God, yes, Jeff, baby, I miss that so much!�

He waited until she was swept away by her first orgasmic wave before he moved up between her quivering thighs and slid into her warm haven. Jeff thought I bet none of the neighborhood men were this attentive, but knew better than to say it aloud as he slowly began his thrusting rhythm, riding high just the way she liked it. It wasn�t long before she wrapped arms and legs around him and bucked her hips, urging him on. When Jeff sensed it was time to pick up the pace, he multiplied it by ten.

�I�m cummingcummingcummingcummingcummingcumming�� she gurgled as an earthquake shook her from bottom to top and back again.

Laura felt a little like the Prodigal Son in the Bible. She was lost and didn�t deserve to be accepted back after what she�d done to him, but Jeff forgave her and made her feel like a loved wife again. �We�re never going to another party,� she said later, before they fell asleep. �I�ll never let another man touch me as long as I live. I love you, sweetheart, and I�m sorry for everything I did to you.�

�I love you too, honey.�

Each dreamed of similar things.

They did skip the next party, and Laura was trying hard to get past her urges, ones driven by her acknowledged insecurity. However, every time she saw or ran into men of the neighborhood all the old cravings came back, especially if they complimented her on how she looked or made comments about missing her at the last party.

Jeff shared with her Kathy�s Pam Smart comparison, and that had shocked Laura to no end. �I would never do that,� she told Jeff, reaffirming her love for him.

He sure didn�t miss the parties. The bastard Marvin could get his rocks off (if that was even possible) watching someone else�s wife get gang banged. That scene was over as far as he was concerned; he thought as he slipped the DVD into his laptop and put the ear buds in his ears.

Kathy Lloyd�s voice was loud and clear. �Oh Jeff�oh Jeff, you�re the man I�ve always dreamed of�fuck me, oh, fuck me good�� she crooned as Jeff watched himself doing just that. He had fucked her good. He grew hard watching her amazing tits quiver while hearing her scream his name one more time as she superbly climaxed.

As he shut down his computer, Jeff whispered to himself, �It�s not always about the party,� as he thought about the next time he�d see the hottest hostess around.

The End

Some tidbits about this story:

Like many of mine, it didn�t end the way I thought it would when I began writing. For one thing I am much more comfortable writing in the first person. I�m no longer afraid to have that first person be a male character, but soon it became apparent that Jeff wouldn�t know everything that was going on, so I switched gears and made it a third person omniscient narrative that I think worked better. I�ll trust that if I confused you, you�ll let me know.

It appears that this is my longest story to date (as long as you don�t count the �Judy� or �Magistrate� stories as one story.) I didn�t plan it that way. Like good sex, sometimes it just happens!
