All Comments on 'Damascus'

Why do you ask for comments when younger use them, including brand new stories. You have just wasted my time.

WOW! Great story and so well developed. Thanks 5 stars.

Anna did what she needed to do to save her husband and herself. But her main goal was to save ger husband. Only by humiliating him was that possible. She hated and pretended for Kabir. She has more than enough training to pull that off. And she mercilessly butchered the asshoel when she had a chance. Every hood special agent or assassin has a bit of of a sociopath compartmentalization in their tool set. While they will need counseling, and the husband some therapy to get past what he saw, her allegiance and love for her hsuband is simply unassailable. If people that that is cheating, then they have a screw loose. Imagine if instead the wife was forced to have sex in front of the husband to save his life. It hurts to see, but how is that cheating? That is rape. This situation was virtually no different. She did all the mental calculations and examined possible scenarios and determined with her training and expertise that this was they only her husband (and maybe her) gets out alive. When the opportunity presented itself she struck fast and without mercy. Kabir was stunned. Besides it wasn't just Kabir and his henchmen, it was also the security forces that woukd storm the hotel and didn't care much about civilian casualties. Hence she chose to act and made the right decision to save their lives. Her remarks on the last page are very telling. No one would want to go through his soul crushing agony, and he knew nothing of her past, but she clearly lives for him. Any therapy is for him to get past the PTSD and the imagery and humiliation, like any normal purpose woukd need help in doing. She doesn't need therapy. She flipped a switch and did her job, compartmentalizating her emotions. Her husband is her therapy. With his love and support, she is whole. This really isn't even about reconciliation. It is about being victims, sacrifice, and trauma. They get through it. Great story. 5 stars. Lot of commenters either didn't read it fully or missed the point nonetheless.

When I started reading this story I thought it was just the normal LW but as soon as Anna started coming on to Omar I lost it. Like Mard said, her 'behavior was so far out of the ordinary' that I just skimmed through to the part where she rescued Mark. I know this if fiction but holy crap, I was pissed at her until I realized she did what she had to do to keep Mark and herself alive. It would be hard to live once the smoke had cleared but I'm thinking Mark would get over his shock and take her back. Not sure if I could do that or not. Still give it four stars.

"XENA WARRIOR PRINCESS" twaddle combined with fem/ Dom agit prop. This kind of bullshit can only be written by a feminized man. It's not merely stupid. It's intellectually dishonest and culturally toxic. It doesn't matter that the prose flows well.

2nd reading… still a great story. Tough subject matter. As for the comment section; too many immature keyboard warriors willing to just dump her. 1: She hid her past for the hope of a normal(ish) future. 2: Everything she did was with the intent to protect her husband and get them both out of there alive. 3: In the aftermath, her main thoughts were for the mental well-being of her husband. - She clearly loves him, and their life together. It’s easy to forgive her for choosing to put her past behind her. It wasn’t described in depth, but with further consideration, it’s easy to understand that it was clearly devastating for her.

So you could either condemn her for her actions, or you could choose to understand her intent and motivation. She played a necessary role to protect him.

She shouldn't have had to fuck around on the husband who she loves because Americans shouldn't go to Damascus in the first place. If there was legitimate business to be done, hire local legal representation or handle the business outside that country.

Then, of course, we wouldn't have such a wonderful story.

Hey anon from 2 months ago. This is not satire.

Satire: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly I the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

This story doesn't employ satire.

Satire would be like South Park or Family Guy. Or Animal Farm.

What would this satire be about? That man is inherently weak and needs a woman to protect him? In order to do so she absurdly turns herself into a well experienced whore and humiliates him in the process of saving him right before she turns into cold blooded killer? Yay for women empowerment.

Right. This author sure skewered toxic masculinity with this one.

Jesus H Christ everybody. This is obviously satire and lighthearted for FUCK SAKE. As clear as it was to me that she was going to usurp the bandits, it was quite hilarious to read the MC's reaction. He was quite impressed and taken aback while realizing that his wife is able to seriously fuck him up. Great sophomoric humor and entertaining.

@Slamnuke: Completely agree with you.

@Anonymus, refering to Slamnuke's comment: S. didn't say a Muslim wouldn't rape an infidel, he wrote it wouldn't happen in that situation.

Belongs in the Sci-Fi Fantasy category... not Loving wives... this is beyond outerlimits and totally unbelievable... how would anyone ever be able to trust a wife that had kept all her outrageous past secret knowing that if she could do that she could get away with anything and he would probably never find out.

The comment below that Muslim fanatics wouldn't touch an infidel woman is simply uninformed. According to the the Hadiths and Koran, she would be a " woman of the right hand", and so having sex with her with or without consent is fully allowed. Muslims regularly rape "infidel" women, even today.

The bit about her being super woman is just nonsense, as another comment points out. The author is far too influenced by the fantasies of fem/Dom agit prop.

Not believable, women like this don’t exist in real life because women don’t break records at police academies. Female record sure, but overall records? You must be delusional.

Also Islamic terrorists don’t work like this with infidels. They would never have done this during an operation. Say what you want about them but they are fanatics and very devout, they would not touch a woman like this and compromise the mission. In real life they would put a bullet in her head and be done with it.

Good story! Sometimes, all we want is a chance to move past what we are towards who we see ourself as. Her actions were hurtful, but her motivation was pure. It was a bad situation that her husband would not have survived. I am conflicted, but I understand, and cannot disagree with her actions.

Good job....not really believable, but great fun nonetheless. 5 stars

Anna is white trailer trash posing a black widow!

Mark is a stupid weak pathetic pussywhipped cuck

Weak asshole husband should divorce the slut Anna.

Blondie can join the infidels

An agent's ass!!

MC and Anna should go their own way!!!

Fucking awful

Brilliant. It was well done. Thank you.

He wouldn't be assigned trips like this. Fun read though.

There's no coming back from the imagery...her words...the way she effortlessly just slipped into the cheating cunt persona. And her entire history was nothing but lies.

Nice fantasy that he'd love her enough. Need her.

But the entire premise is ridiculous. So..

I really liked the story but as usual the endings of the stories you write are too rushed.

Not sure how he can stay with Anna. The premise is so over the top! She clearly wears the pants in the family! How does a wimpy guy keep someone like Anna interested. She admits she’s an adrenaline junkie and he’s not.

God forbid he ever cheats on her…she’d cut off his genitals and shove them in his mouth! Ouch!!!

All in all I liked the story, well written and suspenseful. Interesting premise and way above the LW schlock that appears on Lit. 5 stars for originality.

I love this Femdom agitprop shtick with hapless males and super-human females who love each other.

Great Story!! Loved it!!

WTF? I'd keep her, just in case of future troubles, street muggings, etc. LOL Why was he sent to Damascus?

Why was he chosen for all those trips?!

Totally ineffectual!!!

He wimpy nothing and she is Jane Bond!

No

Didn’t see That coming. Good writing … no, talented! The wife as “the man.”

1*- bunch of horse shit.

While I hate the idea of a spouse doing what she did, I've decided to look at it as rape.

She didn't *willingly* have sex with the terrorist(s), she was forced to.

She didn't *willingly* humiliate her husband, say and do hurtful things.

She did those things to survive. And not just for *her* to survive but to try to ensure that her husband survived.

Sure he's got these actions in his head now, but if a gun was actually pointed at his head and they told her to act a certain way, would he believe it was voluntary?

It'll be hard but he should work through it...

All your stories are about wimp husbands taking back disgusting shithead wives. Write something about a man who has at least a sliver of self respect.

What a delight!

Row row your boat gently down the stream WHAM!

Loved it!

Very interesting story - nice plot line and description by MC. Can’t understand many comments- the author controls the flow. If you don’t like the premise fine but the story was well written. 5*****

bye bye so sorry nope

Before we married, I told spouse about my past. Not all the details, and certainly OPSEC and NDAs still applied. But spouse knew (in general terms) what I had been, and what I had done. Accept it, and me, or don't.

The very idea of not sharing at least that much is bizarre. One should expose enough of oneself to be honest to a partner.

5 stars. Original. Mysterious. Entertaining. The churlish comment about Americans and patriotism notwithstanding, captivating. And buried in all he drama, a really touching love story. Well done.

Ed

This is probably a case of

Maricans will love it because... patriotism....

Most of the rest of the world's population will think it is at least fucked up.

She betrayed him, and if she had shared her knowledge with him, discussed the risk of this trip or something, this might have been avoided. But now, hopefully, he will thank her for saving his life and divorce her afterwards.

I mean, the trauma alone (hostage, betrayed, lied to - no matter how noble the reason) will make him a prime PTSD candidate, he doesn't need the reason for his upset next to him.

5 stars.

A good well written story. A different storyline than any other I have read here. Well done.

I don't understand all the negative comments about her. She willingly sacrificed everything she held dear, including her future happiness with him. She had a few seconds to decide what to do. And she did it. No time for second thoughts. She risked everything for her husband.

She saved his life. Fullstop. Period. End of story. She only had one weapon to use to gain their possible freedom and she used it. What's the problem? Should she have only tried half heartedly to save her husbands life?

The most likely other outcome was that he would be shot. Then she would have been raped and shot by these nice ethical terrorists.

Instead of that they now they have 40 years together as a family making babies and memories. I'll bet he doesn't ever piss her off though.

After all she risked and all she sacrificed people still expect him to react like a 2 dimensional cardboard cartoon character and discard her. After all of that she did to save his life.

I can imagine that conversation. Thanks for saving my life, but yo can fuck off. You're nothing but an unfaithful slut. A whore, fucking another man in front of me. A prostitute, using your cunt for personal favours.

Yeah good one.

I assume that even in this fictional world, her previous life would have to be kept secret from everyone as a part of National Security, or under The official Secrets Act.

She could not have told her husband of her former life, that she was trying desperately to run from and forget, even if she wanted to.

I would not be able to handle it. Not what she had done. May well have been better to die than handle what she did. Others will disagree but that is the way I am built.

The only correct answer is to dump the bitch. If she willing to lie about her entire past she will easily lie about anything.

A very well written and intense plot. However, as others have commented, the lack of exploring the husband’s hurt in the aftermath, leaves the reader hanging a bit. Placing myself in Mark’s shoes, I cannot imagine a future life with her. The images of her cum covered face and the rest - the giving herself to the terrorist completely, would only diminish if she were no longer present. Further, who is she to him after this? Every activity, conversation, and interaction between them would have him questioning who he was with... The woman he married or the trained assassin? It is possible that a happy life with any woman had been permanently destroyed.

Amazing story. I just loved it. I was totally drawn into the idea that she had betrayed her husband and was so happy when she killed Hassan. Her revelation of her training and background was the best part. Her husband’s acknowledgment and acceptance of his wife’s skills saved them both. Excellent finish.

Great read.

On second read-through my opinion hasn't really changed much. The most interesting part of the story would have been how the husband deals with the aftermath, but you pretty much skipped that.

I imagine that if my wife hid such a huge and integral part of her life from me, hid so much of her finances from me -- not that i'd want access to them, they'd be still be hers alone -- and then her fucking somebody else, even if it was to save my life, I'd be not just angry, i'd be fucking hurt.

I know that as much as i'd love her, i think i'd have to hurt her in some emotional way. Not necessarily the best way to handle it, but i think it'd be the only way i could stay with her, even though i'd definitely still love her just as much as i did before.

Why hide the money? 🤔

It looked as if she might have been playing for time. The lack of any resistance by her, even staged ineffectual resistance, and her total abandonment of her spouse seems fakey, and seems only to be in the story to sharpen the husband's (and the reader's) vicarious pain.

If they are to stay together, I see a BDSM future for them as a couple. She must become his total submissive and sign all of her wealth over to his control. Both would benefit from such an arrangement. He would regain a sense of himself that involves strength, power and self determination. She would experience the release of surrendering her will and possessions to someone she trusts and knows to be truly good. He would devise the punishments and acts of penance required for her to achieve some semblance of peace with her past actions. Could be an interesting story...

Far-fetched much?

The story would have been more interesting if you've actually written about the husband's struggle and emotions in the end, whether he would choose to stay or not. What you gave us instead was pretty half-assed.

Garbage woman should be tossed out like yesterday's trash. Can't believe he would stay with her after that.

Disgusting bitch… dump her! She did not need to rub her shit in his face!

An excellent story with great take on a different kind of loving wife story. Actually one where you must really accept and condone and forgive the wife for cheating. The only foreseeable problem is fi the husband can really forgive and accept what she did and that she is a much stronger woman than he ever imagined. It might be hard but what were the alternatives in their situation????

Good

Moving forward, it will be fairly clear whether the wife's actions reflect her professed love and respect for him. Beyond that, however she needs to make herself submissive to her husband's "greater goodness." If everything she said is true, the husband has a moral innocence and purity she long ago lost. She must humble herself to his superiority in this area and make it clear she recognizes him as the moral authority in all aspects of their relationship. That deference and submission might give them a path forward as a couple. Oh...she also gives him full control over all the money she hoarded in the past. 😎

They wouldn't have been in the bank except for her. I don't blame you, but even without your forward, you can tell GA helped write this. It has his smarmy touch all over it. The wife that somehow managed to fuck over her husband in every possible way, the plot hook that seemingly justifies it, and a nice RAAC after the husband is subtly denigrated as being a beta.

You could have removed your name and posted it under his without anyone knowing the difference.

The combined trauma of the near death experience and watching and hearing the love of your life fuck another man and have orgasms in front of you?

No way any man gets past that and even tries to reconcile with this whore. Don't care how hot she is.

That doesn't even bring into play the issues of her being a killer and lying to him for years.

I know its fantasy...and that's fine. But in the real world? He would need therapy for a while and it'd take him at least a year of really trying to be able to have a sustainable erection with this slut. Every time they tried to be intimate he'd think about the guns pointed at his head while she willingly fucked his tormentor. That'll kill an erection.

Hard to get over her cheating and attitude, even to save my life..

SO FUCKED UP WITH THE WHORE ANNI WHICH SHE WAS IRRESPECTIVE OF WHAT WORK SHE DID....THE HUSBAND IS A WEAK CRYING PATHETIC LOSER

Well written, reasonably developed plot within the length, though the real circumstances in that part of the Middle East were dodgier than implied, unless it was meant to be set a few decades ago...

...more like the (three letter government agency that starts with a C and ends with an A) black ops team of which you hear vague rumors.

Hot damn. A female James Bond. Even with a license to kill.

When you said sbrooks edited this, I knew straight away to skip it. Having read some of his childish crap, I know to skip anything remotely associated with him. But don't worry, I'm sure "Those" types of reader will be cheering you on.

Thanks again, but no thank you all the same.

Nope. I should thank you for saving my life but I would have rather died than see you like that. Please don’t fight the divorce.

Excellent story. Cleverly plotted and well-written. I was going to give it 4 but after reading some of the 'cuck shite' comments from the dickless wonders who scour the pages of Literotica for an excuse to spew their misoginistic bile I'm going to give it 5.

Every suburban husband should have an Anna - just in case.

This is a ridiculous story! First, she would never be married to him in reality and second, every discreet man would want nothing more to do with this whore. Unless you wanted to write a cuckold story, you succeeded!

I was referred to your stories by one of the other LW writers, so I'm going down the list alphabetically. Great story, very well written but agree it cries a part 2. Looking how long ago you wrote - probably not going to happen, but I wish... 5*

Good story, but finish it. Five stars anyway for originality.

5⭐

I gave this one a five but I have the feeling that on some level he will never be comfortable around her, ever. Take into consideration that their whole marriage is based on a lie. He thinks he married this hot, somewhat ditzy blonde that is really good in bed. Then he finds out that she isn't who he thinks, at all. She can change her personality in a heartbeat and go from his lovely sex kitten into a slutty cheating cunt. Then she shows herself to be a cold blooded Jane Bond as she shoots her rapist in the back of the head. Now he finds out that she is rich along with being a retired government assassin? Loved the writing but the plot was way out there.

They’re like parrots, aren’t they?

AAWWRRKK! AAWWRRKK! CUCK CUCK CUCK!

Little flaccid dicked loser cowards who would never say “boo” in person hide behind anonymity and toss insults like little impotent darts at their betters.

WAS going to give it 1 star as too farcical, but then it earned it's second star when the deception was revealed and earned it's third star when Anna proved her loyalty to Mark but plugging Hassan right in the melon while she had him beg for his life.

This is a difficult pill to swallow. It would be much better if you extend the story so the resolution for Anna and Mark will be clear and satisfying.

You have always use Anna as the wife with two face.

I liked it, although for everything I like I have to give some critique

1. I wasn't convinced by her story of how that was the only way. There were only two in that room and the shock of her skills to them would have made it easy to take them out since they were obviously so preoccupied.

2. His fast acceptence of forgiving her for the lying, cheating and humiliation so fast.

And his rationalising where he describes her as so much better than him, makes it seem like he just forgives her because he wont find someone better... Makes there relationship seem a bit cheap... Like a math problem based on whether he could do better or not.

And her reasons for loving him was fine, although they could have needed an anecdote, like a story where he does something that shows her that he is the one.

Nice! Look forward to your next. Randi.

As someone that spent many years in the Military Intel Field and also a 3 year stint with the Unholy CIA as an Intel gatherer (spies would transfer, send, handoff, etc. Intel they accumulated to me and I would do a dissemination of it and make sure it got to the right Dept and people) as well as Intelligence for Blackwater Security, I can assure you that many field agents aka Spies and Assassins have massive issues assimilating into most 1st World Societies. Many of them end up in small 3rd world towns or even go completely off the grid. Those that don't......... Usually are not long in this world.. Knowing some of these people and their issues, it might sadly be for the best.

Nuff said

I have to admit his words covered my thoughts exactly

She knew she was a slut magnet to the weak and vain muslim mind.

So she paraded herself to she utterly shamed her husband.

Run man run.

Didn’t need the tl;dr. It really ruined the emotion at the story ending.

I like your stories, couldn’t buy this one.

Forget the moralizing. She risked her life to save his. What she did in the past has no bearing on her love and commitment to him. Can he deal with it? This is a test of his love and trust in her.

Great story.

I couldn't stay with her or trust her. Maybe she saved me maybe she didn't but she is damaged goods for certain.

A clever undertaking, this story. On the superficial level, the good guys won, moreso than in most stories on this site, and he even got to discover that, given the extreme circumstances, her virtue was intact.

And yet, he suffered every bit of damage that any of the countless cheated hubbies on lit have gone through. His very soul has been crushed beyond reason.

It would be a hard position to be in, I wouldn't want to trade places with him. Hell no.

As characters, I can only pray for the best for them, but there's no certainty there.

Such a sad tale, exquisitely woven.

5 stars, despite the unease I feel

Man, if you gave some of the troll commenters on this site a cup of water after being stranded in a desert, they’d whine that the glass wasn’t Waterford crystal. Heavens, she played seductress and broke her marriage vows in order to survive?? Calamity! It’s a fun little story a’la True Lies. Stop bitching about it.

Part 2 please make it a series

I see it offended the usual suspects, so it must be very good indeed!

What a bloody wimp married to an assassin and he didn't even know it. She will do whatever it takes to achieve her goal, even getting into a gang bang if required!!! he rightly feels inadequate, so where can the marriage go from here?! Hated it and by the other comments, this is this author's theme, wimp husbands. Out of here!!!

Another pushover as a husband. also an unfinished story.

Is it over? What did I miss?

Its....really bad.

Didn't see this coming. Its your story so write what you want. I wonder if the complaints would have been as numerous if the roles were reversed and Mark was Anna's rescuer? Could the complainers be sexists?

this is definitely NOT your worst story.

For being well written, fast paced and about as creative as one can get in the LW category...but I didn't like the story. Personally I'd be pretty cheezed about her and the whole deal. Yeah, she is better in every way than him and in being so is, I think, irretrievably damaged. Let her either go back to work or search for her own soul. I would never be at peace or trust her. Go home, quit your job and have her served.

I have no idea how much she loved her husband.

Her robotic actions don't answer that.

But a normal guy would not have

kept her as a wife.

A guy much in love, would've asked for a bullet.

Less in love, asked for a divorce.

Only a wimp would choose this ending.

2 out of 5 from me, as I hate wimp stories.

She lied to him about who she was and then plays the I did what I had to do to save you card. sorry beat it bitch, this and your losing katy story are just horrid.

The only reason Mark was in the Souk was because of his wife Anna, the only reason they where in the bank was because of Anna, if she had stayed home or at least showed some common sense, non of this would ever have happened. If I was Mark that would be what i was thinking at this moment. So yes, she saved their collective behinds. But her actions and impulsiveness led to this situation.

This one blows. He'll be ducking Hassan's sick by proxy every time he kisses her. Thank you for saving my life, now get the fuck out of it.

ENTHRALLING READ, GREAT STORYLINE, UNUSUAL TAKE ON CHEATING ( if it can be classed as such). DONT COMMENT OFTEN BUT AFTER READING SOME OF THE COMMENTS ON THIS STORY I FELT YOU DESERVED ANOTHER POSITIVE, I CAN ONLY ASSUME THEY ARE TERRORIST SYMPATHISERS? 5⭐️, thanks p.

First the lying, next the cheating, as she could have killed Hassan before screwing him. Then tells wimpy husband that she did it to save him. Nah, I don't buy it. Get rid of her quickly.

And if I knew you, I'd give you a pat on the back for writing such an entertaining story.

Anna gave her husband a condescending smile. "I could do it, get through this, because of my training. You don't have that training, and you must be devastated."

Mark looked at her with disgust. "Well, you did just fuck that asshole twice for no reason. Why didn't you just kill Hassan as soon as you were alone with him, then take his pistol and kill my guard? The rest of the gang would have assumed the gunshot was me being executed."

Anna stared at him in shock. "Err..."

"That and the fact that our entire marriage is based on a lie... Yeah, you could say I'm fairly upset," Mark snarled. "So where shall I send the divorce papers?"

not the fucking to save him. Let's just say she had to do that to save his life. That's the story so I accept it. Real problem is, bitch lied to him from day one. Their relationship is built on lies and fraud. Good chance her past comes back to haunt them and any kids they have.
