I got home just before 8pm to a empty house. I called the wife's cell and got her voicemail, so I just hung up and tried to look up her boss's house n...umber, but it wasn't listed. So I said fuck it had a shower and some leftovers before heading for bed. By now it was getting on 9 and still no wife. It was just before 2am when her closing the garage door woke me up. I rolled over so I could see her through slitted eye lids when she walked in the bedroom. She walked in wearing a new dress I. That night she fell asleep, reliving the experience at the tailor shop. Next morning, she got no time to think about it as she had to get ready to go to office and take care of business. But just as soon as she had settled in her big executive chair, her first thought was how good she had felt in the tailor shop and later in the tub.All day she kept thinking about Raj and his expert hands, twice she got so excited that she had to lock her office door and finger herself. But both times the phone. I screamed for a second, making others notice what happened. Before I could draw more attention, though, she kissed me with a forked tongue and licked her bite mark. Wait a second, I though ... why was her tongue forked. Was she a demon? Why did she bite me. Why did I feel cold inside for a second? I thought all of these even as she pressed one of her hands to each of mine.“Master ... I have made you like me ... a snake-god. My name is Angitia and I am the snake-goddess of Italy.. I think Gene sees that, and it’s made him more comfortable. He was kind of walking on eggshells about my past. I think you know quite well how that is!”Bethany smiled and squeezed my hand to emphasize her words.“I do,” I replied. “But I realize now you never were the fragile girl I thought you were. Yes, you were frightened about intimacy, but you are one of the strongest people I’ve ever known. I just didn’t realize it back then.”“You helped me a lot, Steve. More than I can ever repay you.
