Lustful Veracity

For years, Dustin Aldrich has been wishing his wife, Laurel, would consider partner sharing. Their friends are into it, but Laurel wants nothing to do with their antics. They boast and brag about their doings. Even worse, they cheat on each other, sneaking off behind their spouse’s back. It’s not partner sharing, she contends, it’s cheating. She wants to make new friends and leave that crowd behind. In fact, she’s dead-set on the idea and has invited a couple she knows through work to stay over while their house is renovated.

Pretending to be fast asleep in his chair, Dustin witnesses Laurel being much more than hospitable to their houseguests. He’s suddenly torn between his desires and his self-assurance. It seems she’s finally come around, but she did so in the very manner she condemned in others—behind his back. All she had to do was ask.

All Dustin can do is wait for Laurel to breach the subject. He was spying, after all. As days go by, his anticipation turns to angst. It seems Laurel is a hypocrite. Then one night, he awakens to the sounds of sex play from down the hall. Sauntering through the darkness, he laments his own lack of veracity as he goes to confront her.

But Laurel has a surprise in store—she’s been teaching him a lesson. Dustin hasn't been giving her the credit she deserves. She's more into swinging than he ever imagined. It was the underhandedness and reckless behavior of the old crowd she didn’t like, not the idea of partner sharing. It's time to get started.
