It was clear to most people that the marriage wouldn't last. She was decorative, yes, with a fantastic figure, and a pleasant personality, but she was obviously plain bog-standard vanilla. He was raspberry ripple, maple pecan, cookies n' cream. He was also rich and handsome.
She duly performed her wifely duties, but only just. In her view, intercourse was primarily for procreation not pleasure.
Then he met Sophie and was soon deeply in love. She was certainly not vanilla, and she soon let him know. He was spanking her on the third date. And the clincher was that Sophie was not only beautiful but also rich in her own right.
He asked his wife for a divorce. She vehemently refused. They moved to separate rooms.
Secretly he decided to take action. He took started visiting sleazy bars. He shunned the girls, for he was there for a specific purpose. He got friendly with Harry, a small-time bookie, and confided in him. Sure, Harry could help him, but it would be pricey. 'No problem," he replied. He was told he would be contacted.
One day he was sitting at a small table, when he heard a voice addressing him. "Don't turn round," he was urged. The voice named the price. He settled for half up front, remainder after delivery.
Handing over the front half was elaborate, like a cheap TV movie, but he went along with it. He was told to find an excuse to visit Hongkong for a week, where his passport would be stamped to prove he was out of the country. He found there was an Exhibition there, where one of his companies could have a display stand. He would fly out to attend the meetings. He told Sophie, and she said she would take a break in Austria.
After a few days in Hongkong he got a message that his wife had died in a car accident. He cancelled his hotel, and flew home, first informing Sophie.
They were careful not to meet in public for nearly twelve months, though each weekend they would meet somewhere, and he would spank her before making passionate love. There was no trouble from the police, or from the insurance company. The substantial policy, taken out on his and his wife's lives jointly just after their marriage, paid for the final payment on the contract.
After eighteen months he married Sophie, and they had a spanking honeymoon in Nassau. One day while sunning on the beach, she said. "Darling. I've a confession to make. Your wife's death was not an accident." His heart skipped a beat. Did she know? She went on smoothly. "I had someone do it for me - do it for us - so we could marry. Why do you think I went to Austria while you were in Hongkong? Perfect alibis, of course." "My God!" he burst out. "What did that cost you?" She named the figure. His jaw dropped. It was the same extortionate amount he had paid.

As far as the story goes, I say good for them. I hope it was enough money to crimp their style just a bit. This story is a bit dark in my opinion. Shows a rather ugly side of the theme. Something not shown on a regular basis.
My vote for best twisted scheme.

This story reads like an outline for one intended to be much longer, if not a novel. Love, kinky sex, and a supposed passion that drives two people to have another murdered are the key elements, but there's no emotion in the telling of the story, no hot spanking scenes to send you running for your mate or a vibrator, no development of anything other than a cold time line of how a story might unfold. The ending left me flat. It left me thinking, "Yeah, so?"
