Sam's marriage seems to be getting stale. They try marriage counseling but his life goes up in flames. Can a woman and her daughter on the run from her husband help him believe in love again? And just what shade of gray are those lovely eyes?
A Young Wife Discovers Her Neighbours Big, Dark Secret. Emma was a newlywed — young, loyal, and eager to please… until she saw what her older neighbour had to offer. What started as curiosity turned to comparison and fixation. A story about size, temptation, and the slow, aching unravel of a woman who didn’t know how ready she was to be torn open and discovered.
The experiment was controlled. Her desire wasn’t. Ten days. One couple. One stranger. No clothes. It begins as a simple experiment in vulnerability — but desire doesn’t follow rules. When Sophie and Chuck agree to test their relationship, they don’t expect the tension, the tasks… or Malik. What starts as a game quickly becomes something far more intimate.

I wanted to include this story along with my reposting of The Sun Also Rises. I tend to carry over characters from story-to-story. And I know that it can be confusing when people from prior stories appear in the middle of new ones. Especially if a lot of time has passed as is the case here. This was written over a year after the Sun Also Rises. I wanted to explore the theme of infidelity between people who are essentially made for each other. The title is from a Hemingway short story.
