Page 12 of Twisted Betrayal

To think this whole charade was because she wanted Riley to be able to go out with her and pick up guys.When they went out now, it had always been to a restaurant, never a bar.It wasn’t just because he forbade it.It was because Riley didn’t like being without him if they went to those places.

Rick knew at least some of it was that he had pissed Gloria off at the party a few weeks before.He knew by the look in her eyes the last time he saw her that she’d try something, but nothing like this.She’d taken it way too far, and she’d pay for it.

He planned on calling an old friend who was a private detective.He wanted to gather as much information on the woman as possible, and only then would he be able to make her suffer as much as possible.

He noticed Riley was falling asleep and decided to take her to bed.She needed to sleep, and he needed to hold her.He turned off the TV and lifted her into his arms.

“I can walk, Rick,” she said as her arms curled around his neck.

He pressed his lips against her forehead.“I know, Sweetheart.But I can see how tired you are, and I want to take care of you.”

Rick set her on her feet in the bathroom and quickly stripped her.“Brush your teeth and use the toilet while I pull down the blanket.”

She nodded and reached for her toothbrush.

He was back as she finished and picked her up again.He lay her in the bed and pulled the cover up.“I’ll be right back.I want to make sure everything’s locked up and the security is on.”

“Come back quickly.”

He kissed her forehead.“I will.”

Rick watched her eyes close and studied her.Even after a few hours had passed, her eyes were still swollen, and she looked pale.

He would make sure by the end of the weekend that she was back to normal.He went through the house quickly before heading up the stairs.He checked to see her asleep before stripping and stepping into the shower.

The images of his wife and her distress wouldn’t stop running through his head.His fury was so deep, he would have gladly put his hands around Gloria’s neck and squeezed until she was dead.He wasn’t usually a violent man.Oh, he’d gotten in his share of fights and won, especially when he was young.He’d never started one, but since he was so large, six foot four inches, and played football, some guys wanted to show him they were stronger.They never were.He didn’t go out of his way to find a fight.

He was protective of the people he cared about, mostly his wife, Riley, and maybe a few friends.He had no other family left except a few cousins he never saw, but Riley was and would always be his main concern.She was his whole world.

He washed and dried off quickly before wrapping the towel around his hips.He brushed his teeth before tossing the towel onto the nightstand and sliding into bed next to her.

“Mmmm,” she hummed and tried to get closer.“Aren’t you going to make love to me?”

He grinned.“Absolutely.But I want you to rest first.You’ll need your strength for what I have in mind for you.”

She giggled, sighed, nodded, and fell back to sleep.

Rick watched her sleep for a long time.His emotions teeter-tottered between fury and thankfulness.His love for his wife deepened as he thought about the night.He could have bet his whole house on the fact that Riley would never have sex with another man, especially in front of him, and to punish him.Her heart was so pure of malice, and it was one of the things he loved about her.He felt himself drift off and then wake right before dawn.

He looked down to see his wife wrapped around him and his grip on her tight.He rolled her to her back, braced his head on his hand and his other on her stomach.

“Sweetheart,” he murmured.He grinned when she scowled and tried to roll toward him.He growled playfully and kept her in place.“Sweetheart, wake up for me.”

Rick had to prod her a few more times before she blinked and then stared at him.

“There’s my girl.I can’t wait any longer.I need to be inside of you,” he told her.

He loved the blush of desire that instantly covered her face.He stopped her when she tried to reach for him.“I can’t have you touch me yet.I’m too close already, and there are a few things I want to do to you.”

She smiled.“Really?What?”

“How about I show you?”

Her sleepy smile grew.

He bent and started kissing her, trying to convey all the love he felt for her.At the same time, his hand wandered, cupping her breasts, playing with the nipples, and then after a few minutes, moving lower.His fingers cupped her sweet cunt before he let one of them press into her wet pussy.

“Jesus Christ, Wife.I will never get enough of you.”
