A Wife's Fury

by Margaret Jeanette

 

Joel and Julie Woods had a beautiful marriage. They were much in love with each other. They were married a little over three years. He was a successful novelist with three books published and his publisher after him to complete his fourth. She was a teller at a bank and enjoyed her job.

They had just been out to eat. He brought her up to date on the negotiations to make his second novel into a movie. They went to see a movie. They were walking out when she kidded him about seeing tears in his eyes in an especially emotional part of the movie. He said he must have gotten something in his eyes. She said yes, tears.

They headed for the secure parking lot and just entered when a group of young toughs blocked their path. One grabbed Joel and held a knife to his throat before he knew what was happening. Two others grabbed Julie by the arms. She managed to kick one in the shin before he got a good hold on her. He jumped up and down for a couple of minutes then grabbed her breasts and told her to settle down or she would regret it.

The one holding the knife to Joel's throat demanded money. Joel got his wallet out and gave one his money. The man who had gotten kicked reached under Julies skirt and pinched her crotch. She let out a scream. The toughs released them and were out of sight as Joel and Julie stood and wondered what had happened.

Joel recovered and went to take Julie's arm. She pulled it away.

She said, "Where were you when I really needed you? Where were you when those men grabbed me?"

He said, "They were holding me also. One had a knife at my throat!"

"You didn't even fight them! I at least put up a little fight. You were like a big pussy doing nothing!"

He said, "When you have a knife at your throat you don't fight, you do what they want."

They were at their car by then. Once inside Joel was going to call the police but Julie said the police wouldn't do much. She said they didn't get much money. He said he wanted to call them anyway but she told him to forget it. He could tell by the tone of her voice she was angry. He put the cell phone down and drove home.

They were heading home when Julie said, "I never knew you were such a big pussy. You didn't do anything to defend me. I never thought you were that much of a sissy."

He didn't want to get her madder than she was so he didn't argue with her. The last half of the drive was made in silence. They were home and Julie was silent for a long time. She sat in the living room and seemed to be starting at nothing. Joel didn't disturb her. He knew she was mad but he didn't know what to say to get her to snap out of it. He figured he'd stay by her to support her.

Suddenly she stood up and told him to come with her. He followed her to the bedroom. Once there she told him to strip. He stripped down to his underwear. She told him to get that off also. He removed that also. He wondered what she had in mind.

She went to her dresser and returned with a pair of satin panties. She handed them to him and told him to put them on. He protested and asked why.

Julie said, "You are a big pussy so you might as well wear what a pussy wears."

Joel said, "I am not going to wear women's panties! I am a man!"

She said, "You are a big pussy, not a man. A man would have figured some way to help his wife not let her get groped by some strange man. Now, get them on or else!"

He asked, "Or else what? What is the or else?"

Julie in the iciest voice he had ever heard said, "Put them on now. You don't want to know what the or else is!"

She scared him so he slid the panties on. They were very tight on him. Then she handed him one of her nylon nightgowns and told him to put that on also. He shrugged his shoulders and let it fall over his head. It was tight on him also.

She said it was time for their nightcap. She went first to the kitchen where she fixed a hot chocolate for both of them. He sipped his hot chocolate and decided to wait until morning to try to get her back to her senses.

As they were getting set to get into bed he noticed she didn't give him his usual kiss. He thought about the fact that it was only the third time since they were married that she didn't kiss him good night and that the other two times was when he was out of town with his publisher.

The next morning she was up before he was. She walked in just as he was opening his eyes. When he was fully awake he saw she was already dressed in jeans and a shirt.

"Go in and shave and do what you all do in the morning and come back here" she told him sharply.

He went and did his morning routine and five minutes later he was back in the bedroom. He saw a bra, stockings, a slip and a red knit dress lying on the bed.

"I've got all your clothes right here. They are what a pussy wears."

"I am not a pussy and I am not going to wear those clothes!" He said emphatically.

Julie said, "Last night I saw what a big pussy you really are. You are going to wear these clothes. I am not in the mood for an argument. You already have the panties on so all that is left is for you to finish dressing."

He said he wasn't going to wear them and that they had to talk. Before he knew it she had stood up and slapped him so hard across the face that he stumbled sideways.

Julie said, "You will get these clothes on. Then we may talk but don't count on it."

He was stunned. He had never seen her act anything like that before. He slowly put the clothes on. Julie got him a pair of his unisex penny loafers out for him to wear with the outfit. He was mortified. She said it was breakfast time and led the way to the kitchen.

She set breakfast in front of him and sat down to eat her breakfast. He asked, "When are you going to return to reality and let me get my regular clothes on?"

She said, "The reality is that you are a big pussy. You will wear your big pussy clothes until I see you are not a big pussy. They look awful tight on you and I'll have to see what we can do about that. Now, eat your breakfast."

He ate in silence wondering how long she was going to remain mad at him. He wondered how he could convince her that he couldn't do anything with the knife at his throat. He finished breakfast and she came by him and took his chin in her hand and when she was done he had the reddest lips in town.

He wondered what was next as she walked out of the room. He didn't have to wait long as she came back with her purse and an old red one of hers. She handed him the red one and told him to come along. He said he wasn't going anywhere dressed as he was. She grabbed his arm and with strength he didn't know she had she shoved him toward the garage.

They were in the car and before she started it she reached into her purse and took out two shiny pennies and told him to put them in his shoes so they would be real penny loafers. He did as she said.

She drove for almost ten minutes and parked in front of a store and told him to get out and come with her. He saw it was a Foundations, Etc. Store. She led him in. She told him to look around as she talked to the salesgirl

She told the salesgirl she was looking for something to make the dress on her pussy husband look better. The salesgirl told her not to worry as she had taken care of many cases like this. She said they had some old fashioned rubber girdles in back that might do the trick but that they were extremely hot to wear and very uncomfortable. Julie said she didn't care about his comfort.

The salesgirl got one she thought would work. It took her and Julie doing a lot of pulling but they finally got it on him. He could hardly breathe in it and told them. Julie told him he would get used to it. When his slip and dress were back on he didn't look too bad. The dress didn't look too bad.

The salesgirl told Julie that a corset would make his rear look better and make him hold his chest and back straighter. Julie said to try one. The girl came back with one and showed Julie all the stays it had. The salesgirl asked Julie if she wanted the girdle off of him or on him. Julie said leave it on. The salesgirl told her she was mean, laughing as she said it.

The salesgirl pulled the corset up on him and started lacing it up. Soon she was tightening the laces more and more. She got it as tight as she could. She told Julie loud enough for him to hear to punch him in the stomach hard. Julie went in front of him and balled her fist. He pulled his stomach in and the salesgirl tightened the corset some more. The salesgirl told Julie she didn't have to hit him. Julie was a bit disappointed as she felt like hitting him.

When he had her slip and dress on his rear did indeed stick out more and from the front you could see a little cleavage. He held his shoulders different and seemed to be sticking his breasts out. Julie was extremely happy with that.

Joel was shocked when the salesgirl told Julie that he should keep it on for at least four or five days to allow his body to get shaped better. She said that every other day Julie could tighten the laces.

He was thankful to get into the car. They were on their way home when Julie said, "Now the whole world can see what a big pussy you are. Look at that! Get your lipstick out and refresh your lipstick. There is a mirror on back of the visor."

He got the lipstick out and was putting it on when they were stopped for a red light. A young girl in her car next to them looked and was laughing very hard. He was blushing deeply. They got home and he was already sweating in the girdle. It was starting to itch.

They were watching television and finally he could take it no longer. He told her that the girdle and corset have to come off. She told him he would have to suffer. She said sometimes big pussies had to put up with discomfort.

Late in he afternoon he heard her laugh at a comedy she had on television. He thought she is in a better mood. He went in and said, "These clothes are too tight and way too hot. We have to do something before I pass out."

She said, "Last night I could have passed out and you wouldn't have done anything. You can keep them on. You have to learn that sometimes clothes can be a slight bit uncomfortable and warm."

"A bit uncomfortable and warm!! That's not what they are at all; they are very uncomfortable and hot! We have to do something before its too late."

Julie said, "Unfortunately you are one or maybe two sizes bigger than I am. I know of one dress store that is open for a couple of hours yet. We can go there and see if we can find you some dresses that are larger. Are you telling me you want to go dress shopping? We can get you some dresses and maybe some heels to match."

He told her he didn't want to go dress shopping that all he wanted to do was get back into his regular clothes. She told him a big pussy wears what he had on now. She told him that when and if he showed her that he wasn't a big pussy she might let him get back into his regular clothes but not to count on it too soon.

He asked about taking his shower and she told him that maybe Tuesday she would release him long enough to take a shower but he would have to promise her that he would put he clothes back on. He was devastated and couldn't think of anything to say to change her mind.

At bedtime she handed him the nightgown again. It fit a lot better now. He slept but not real well. He had trouble getting comfortable. The next morning after she had left for work he went into his den and started to work on his novel. It was near impossible for him to think as he had to to write creatively. Finally after an hour of hardly any production he called it quits.

He made himself his regular ham and cheese sandwich and glass of milk. He went into the living room and picked up the Sunday paper and took it to the recyclables. He cleaned the living room wondering how he was going to get through to his wife.

When she got home she noticed immediately that he had cleaned the living room. She thought to herself that even though he didn't like wearing a dress he is still being his tidy self.

At supper he told her he couldn't concentrate on his work because the tight clothes distracted him. She offered take him dress shopping after supper. She told him he would get used to it in no time otherwise. He declined the offer of shopping.

His sides itched and he couldn't get at the itch. He tried everything he could think of to scratch the itch but nothing worked. That night at bedtime Julie handed him a baby doll pajama set. He blushed when she looked at him wearing it.

The next morning before he got dressed she tried tightening the laces on his corset. She got another two inches of lacing taken up. He said he thought his ribs would break. She reminded him that that night he could take a shower and have it off for a little while. She gave him a purple dress with a V-neck to wear.

She left for work feeling pretty good that she had gotten so much more lace out on his corset. He sat and finished his coffee and went to try to get some writing done. His ribs were hurting and the trunk of his body was itching something fierce. After a half hour he gave up. It was hopeless to try to write in his state of mind. He decided he had to talk to Julie that night.

He went and poured himself another cup of coffee. He turned on the television. An ad for an anti-itch lotion caught his attention. Then it was followed by the Channel Six newsbreak, a brief broadcast of the news. He was shocked to see a video of him and Julie getting robbed. The newscaster said the men were all under arrest and the police were looking for the victims.

He turned off the television and pondered whether he should call the police or not. Finally he decided to call them. He was immediately put through to someone who identified himself as Lieutenant Harris. The lieutenant asked his name and address and told him he would be there in ten minutes.

Ten minutes later the police officer was there. He raised his eyebrows when he saw Joel. He asked, "Is that what you usually wear?"

Joel said, "No, my wife went nuts that I didn't protect her and won't listen that I couldn't do anything as I was being held with a knife at my throat. She says I am just a big pussy and she got me dressed like this. I don't go out much so I am hoping she will change her mind and let me get back into men's clothes."

The lieutenant asked, "Has she seen the video? It shows clearly what happened. You only did the right thing. The man who had the knife at your throat had two murder warrants out against him. He killed a high school student and a gas station attendant by slitting their throats. We did a drug sweep and happened to catch all of them. The parking lot security company brought that video in to us. They checked it on Monday morning for the weekend. Those are digital motion detector cameras. That is why it is such a clear image. I am sorry for what happened to your wife. I know it had to be traumatic."

"Traumatic? She went nutso she was so mad. I wanted to call the police and she said you wouldn't catch them anyway and we only lost twenty-twenty-five dollars so forget it. I knew she was pretty upset so I didn't call."

"Well, the guy who held the knife against your throat will probably get life in prison for the two murders but your testimony may sway the judge to make it life without parole. Will you testify against him and his buddies?"

Joel said, "You bet. As far as I am concerned they are the reason I am in this predicament. I am out of ideas of how to get my wife to believe I am a real man not a pussy as she calls it."

The lieutenant asked, "Would you like me to talk to her? Maybe I can show her that you are more of a man than she thought."

He said he would appreciate it, if he could change her mind he would be forever in his debt. When he told the lieutenant that he was a writer and told him the three books he had published the lieutenant told him he had read two of the books and liked them very much. He asked if he brought them if Joel would autograph them. Joel agreed.

When the lieutenant found out she was home usually about four thirty he told Joel he would be there around that time. After he left Joel felt better knowing that someone else felt he could do nothing to help Julie. He became more and more sure that the lieutenant could convince Julie to change her mind about him.

About three he started having doubts whether anyone could change Julie's mind. He knew Julie could get set in her ways sometimes and it was near impossible to change her mind once she had it set.

He wanted her in the best mood possible so he went and put some lipstick on just before she was to get home. He was nervous when he heard he garage door open. She came in and told him he looked nice. She seemed in a better mood.

Just then the doorbell rang. Joel looked surprised and went to open the door. It was Lieutenant Harris. Joel called Julie to the living room.

When the introductions were made Lieutenant Harris said, "I want you to know we caught all of the men who attacked you and your husband. They are all in jail and will be charged tomorrow. Your husband has agreed to testify against them. What I would like is if you would agree to testify against them also. I understand you didn't think we could catch them. Well, we did our part and now I am asking you to do your part. Could you do me a favor and turn channel six on the television. They are going to show a video I think you will find interesting. "

Julie turned the television on to channel six. The early news was just starting. The lieutenant told her would see them in a video and to watch her husband. The video started a couple of minutes later. Julie watched and saw herself kick the man. She also watched her husband who looked like he was trying to twist somewhat without luck. The video ended and the lieutenant told her she could turn the TV off. She did.

The lieutenant told her, "The man who was holding the knife to your husbands throat is wanted for two other killings. We have enough witnesses to be able to say he will probably be sentenced to life in prison. What we would like is your testimony so that it may sway the judge to make it life without parole. Would you agree to testify what happened from your perspective?"

She agreed and then the lieutenant continued, "I don't like to get mixed up in family affairs but I want to tell you your husband is no pussy as you called him. I am positive that if he had given any more resistance than he did, tonight you would be looking at him in a funeral home? Would that have been enough for you to not think of him as a pussy. I think he is a courageous man. I am not saying that to cover for him, I am saying that because one person, a high school student, fought the same man who held the knife to your husbands throat and got his throat slit for fighting back. We have four witnesses that are going to testify to that. What I am saying is be thankful you have a live husband and are not married to a dead hero in your eyes. I thank you for your time and thank you for agreeing to testify. I have to go and I want you to remember that the police don't catch everyone but we do sometimes get lucky and catch those who need to be taken off the streets for everyone's safety. Have a great evening."

He was gone and Julie sat there thinking about what he had said. She never thought any of those toughs were killers. She replayed the video in her mind and saw Joel twisting some but not getting anywhere. She knew she was wrong she didn't know what to do about it.

She went into the kitchen and started a light supper. She felt like crying but didn't. When supper was ready she called Joel. He came and soon they were sitting eating.

She said, "That police officer was quite convincing. He gave me a feeling of confidence. I was surprised you didn't stay in the room. Why didn't you?"

He told her, "He talked to me this morning after I called him. I saw the video on the news and they said the police were looking for us. I waited, then decided to call. He was very nice and asked about when he could talk to you. He didn't say talk to us, he said talk to you, so I left you alone with him. By the way he is one of the fans of my books."

She said, "I imagine you are looking forward to a shower tonight. Can I make a suggestion, and that is, why don't you take a long relaxing bath tonight instead of a shower. I think it will be better for you."

"I think I will. The longer I take the longer I will be out of this corset and girdle."

She didn't answer that. They finished eating and she cleaned up. She saw him head for the bedroom. She got all the dishes put away in five minutes then headed for the bedroom to help him. She got there just in time to untie the laces of his corset. It took some time to get it loose enough for him to get it off. The girdle took a lot longer to peel off of him. He had marks in his skin from the pattern of the girdle. When they finally got it off they both laughed at his body art from the girdle. She shooed him into the bathroom.

He took a very leisurely bath. He really enjoyed the feeling of freedom he now had. He hadn't heard Julie go past the bathroom door so he figured she was waiting for him to get done so she could help him get the girdle and corset back on. He finally decided it was time to get out of the tub. He got out and toweled himself off. He took a deep breath and headed for the bedroom.

He was in the doorway and saw Julie sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for him. He looked closer and saw she had tears in her eyes. He asked her what was wrong.

Sobbing, she said she was waiting to help him get dressed. She grabbed a pajama bottom and held it for him to step into. She pulled it up and he saw it was a pair of his regular pajamas. Then she helped him with the top. When he had it on she buttoned it. She hadn't said anything yet, just sobbed.

Finally shakily she said, "I was wrong! I am so sorry! Can you ever forgive me? I don't know why I didn't listen to you. I just was so upset that I thought you let that animal man handle me and grope my body. I am so sorry I took it out on you. What can I do to make it up to you?"

He stood there and smiled and said, "Well that isn't going to be easy. I'll have to think about it. It might take several days for me to come up with something, or there is something you can do right now to atone for everything."

Julie said, "Name it, I'll do it!"

He said, "Well if you really want to get it taken care of right now then I guess you better give me a kiss."

She said, "A kiss, that's it!"

He said, "Yes a kiss. You haven't kissed me since we were in the movie. I think that's what I missed the most."

She said, "What about what I did to you?"

He said, "Well first Corinthians Chapter 13 tells us what love is all about. I couldn't hate you for doing what you did. You had to recover from the attack in your own way and I can see that. I don't know what finally changed your mind but I am glad you are back to being the wife I love."

She said, "That police officer started me thinking and I didn't know how to tell you I am sorry."

He said, "Well, I think you did a great job of letting me know you are sorry. I can accept that, now how about another kiss."

He was glad to get out of those accursed clothes and she was glad to have her husband, her hero back.
