Chapter 5

Inside the hotel room in the Hyatt Regency in Dearborn, Michigan, Melissa is getting her back blown out by one of her random suits. The grunts of "Yeah baby, yeah baby, the moan of Melissa's sex partner. Melissa's face was contorted as she was not enjoying it. Since Darian talked with Andrea, the open marriage idea was starting to look vague to her.

"Oh shit, I am cumming," Melissa's sex partner grunts as he released his essence inside of Melissa. Melissa became very upset.

"What the fuck? I told you not to pull out!"

"I am sorry, darling. I guess I got too excited," The man chuckled.

"NO! SHIT!"

Melissa pushed her partner off her and darted towards the bathroom. Melissa jumped in the shower and tried to wash every trace of semen from her love box. When Melissa was done, she went to her bag and took a morning-after pill.

Melisse emerged from the bathroom with a bathrobe wrapped around her. Melissa checked her messages to see if she got any from Darian. To her disappointment, there was none.

Melissa tried calling Darian. As she waited for Darian to pick up, her male suitor was kissing her neck.

"Stop!"

"What is wrong, darling?"

"I am trying to call myself a husband!"

"Well, if he snoozes, he loses," Her male suit replied as he removed Melissa's bathrobe.

"I said fucking stop."

"You know what, I got something to tickle your fancy, literally!"

Dan went to his night bag and grabbed an anal butt plug, and presented it to Melissa.

"A butt plug. Really," Melissa rolled her eyes. However, Melissa did not contest as she bent over. Dan coated the butt plug with KY jelly and pushed it inside of Melissa's rectum. Melissa's body began to quiver. Melissa got on the bed and positioned herself in the doggy-style position. Dan took Melissa's gesture to shove his erect manhood deep inside.

The following day Melissa came home. Melissa pulled into her driveway next to Darian's car. "Finally," Melissa thought. She was finally able to see her husband for the first time in weeks. Melissa entered the house and called for Darian. There was no answer. Melissa went to the bedroom and saw Darian packing a travel bag with hygiene products while listening to music on his earbuds.

"Darian," Melissa yelled. Darian turned around and saw Melissa standing at the door. Darian says nothing and returns his attention to his luggage.

"I have been calling, texting you. Why haven't you answered."

"I've been busy. Besides, I didn't think you had the time to talk while you are with sex buddies," Darian smugly replied.

"I will always make time for you," Melissa replied. Melissa's eyes focused as she glared at the box of condoms poking out Darian's suitcase.

"You are going out with her again!"

"Her name is Andrea!"

"You are dating, you freaking boss!"

"Ex-Boss if you must know.

"You're not going," Melissa demanded.

"Excuse me!"

"I said you are not going. I have put up with you and Andrea long enough! You need to start dating around."

"Melissa, I am not having this conversation with you. Don't you have a date with a fuck buddy?"

"You know what, we are closing our marriage."

"No! We both have to agree to it as we discussed."

"You are getting too attached to Andrea."

"I never wanted an open marriage!"

"Then why keep doing it?"

"Because Andrea is fun to be around. She treats me as if I am the only man for her!"

"She's treating you like a gigolo. Buying nice things and giving you money. It's not right."

"So what? The bills are paid," Darian replied. "And how dare you complain to me who I am sleeping with when you reak of another man. I can smell his cheap ass cologne.

Melissa did not have any words to argue, so she just watched Darian continue packing. When Darian finished packing, he bolted towards the door. Melissa started to annoy him, and he wanted to get the hell out of the house. However, his hopes of avoiding further drama were nullified by Melissa.

After Montreal, Darian and Andrea's relationship is becoming more than just a sexual encounter. Melissa started to take notice of Darian's smitten behavior. When Darian is at home, Darian no longer gives her loving attention.

Darian's attention was now fixated with phone calls and texts from Andrea. Melissa was jealous. Now her acknowledgment has become the grunted words of "Wassup" and "Uh huh's!"

Melissa attempted to get even with Darian by openly flaunting men in front of him. Melissa completely disregarded the rules by having her dates pick her up at the house.

Melissa continued to date random men; however, the idea of Darian sleeping with one woman made her feel guilty.

Melissa was frustrated with Darian's disregard for her presence. Melissa resulted in gaslighting.

Melissa made accusations of infidelity against Darian. One of Melissa's and Darian's rules for an open marriage was never to get emotionally attached. Melissa would have been comfortable if Darian was sleeping with multiple women. At least Darian wouldn't develop an emotional attachment. Melissa demanded Darian end his relationship with Andrea, but Darian laughed in her face.

"You need to explore another woman than just one woman."

"DON'T YOU FUCKING GET IT! I AM HAPPY TO HAVE JUST ONE WOMAN!"

"Fine, you want one woman; here I am. You need to quit Andrea!"

"You want me to break things off with Andrea for you? That is not going to happen," Darian replied with a disgusted look.

"You're cheating."

"Cheating? How?"

"Remember the rules of not getting emotionally attached to a sex partner."

"You can't expect me to follow the rules when you keep breaking them and modifying them to your liking," Darian scoffed.

Those words cut deep into Melissa's soul. Could she possibly be losing her husband or losing all his compassion and affection? Melissa knew that she had to get her husband back, but Darian was unwilling to let Andrea go. Melissa had tried to close the marriage, but Darian disagreed, especially when Andrea had invited him back to Montreal.

Melissa grabbed hold of Darian's luggage handle.

"Melissa, what are you doing?"

"You can sleep with any other woman, but Andrea is off-limits. You are staying," Melissa demanded.

"Let go," Darian replied as he yanked free from Melissa's grip. Darian quickly darted towards the door. Melissa followed Darian downstairs, yelling.

"If you leave this house, it's over," Melissa yelled. Darian turned and gave Melissa a smirk.

"Do it! I'll sue your ass for alimony!"

"You wouldn't dare!"

"You are the one that has a job and making more than me. Now if you would excuse me, I have a plan to catch," Darian darted out of the house and slammed the door to let Melissa know of his disdain for her.
