New Orleans was thick with that swampy, restless heat as dusk settled in, the sky turning a deep red over the French Quarter. The air smelled like bourbon and something dirtier drifting from the alleys. It was our fourth day here, and I'd been wrestling with this messed-up secret--I'd lined up something wild for Cathy, my wife, with a guy I knew would push her limits, and it was eating me alive. She had no idea, just floating through the hotel bar in this tight sundress that hugged her curves--her breasts were huge, spilling out, nipples showing through like they were daring someone to notice. Her hips swayed as she walked, that round ass bouncing a little, skin glowing from the humidity, her belly soft and spilling just over the waistband. Her black hair was a sweaty mess against her neck, and those deep brown eyes of hers had this spark she didn't even realize was there. She figured tonight was drinks and maybe some fun in bed. Me? I knew I'd set something in motion that could either break us or light us up.
This whole thing started a week ago, me half-drunk over beers, poking around online for something crazy. I found Ramon--a Creole guy with a thing for ropes and a reputation for being hung and intense. I kept thinking, "She's holding something back," imagining her tied up and letting go, so I sent him pics--Cathy naked on our bed, wet and open, her breasts swaying. He wrote back, "I'll set her loose." Last night, she'd climbed on me, desperate, her soaked panties rubbing against me as she whispered, "Joe, I need something big, something to shake me up." Her dress came off, those full breasts bouncing free, her belly trembling as she came hard, her eyes wild with this hunger that hit me deep. I loved her so damn much, but that look--it made me feel small, like I wasn't enough. She was ready for this, even if the idea of ropes freaked her out, and I hated how bad I wanted to see it happen.
At the bar, she leaned into me, her body warm against mine, smelling like sweat and flowers. "You're quiet tonight, Joe," she said, her fingers brushing my crotch, sending a shiver through me. I grinned, trying to play it off even though my chest felt tight. "Just caught up in you, babe." She laughed, this warm, throaty sound, pressing closer, her breasts soft against my arm. "You're sweet," she said, kissing my jaw, her lips gentle. It twisted me up--I'd told her we were meeting "a friend" at some rough spot off Bourbon Street, a place I'd checked out online. She bought it, eyes bright, trusting me completely. Then Ramon walked in--tall and lean, scarred up, with a coil of rope over his shoulder and shorts hanging low, showing off a bulge that didn't mess around. He looked her over--her chest, her thick thighs, the damp spot growing on her dress. "This her?" he asked, his voice low and rough, the rope brushing her arm. She tensed, looking at me quick. "Your friend, Joe?" she said, her voice shaky but curious. I nodded, my throat dry, heart hammering. "Yeah, babe. This is Ramon."
The place was a dump--past some beaded curtains, the floor sticky, the air heavy with sweat and low groans from the shadows. Cathy held my arm tight, her nails digging in as Ramon took us to a back room with a stage, a single light shining down, seats filled with guys--big guys--watching us, hands already busy. "Joe, what's going on?" she whispered, her voice trembling, her chest rising fast. I swallowed hard, keeping my tone steady. "Something different, Cath. You said you wanted wild, right?" Ramon grinned, pulling out this worn black rope that smelled like old sweat, stepping close to her. "Take it easy, cher," he said, his voice smooth, wrapping the rope around her wrists slow, his fingers brushing her skin. She pulled back, her eyes wide, letting out a scared little sound--"Joe, I'm not sure about this"--but I held her still, my dick jumping even as my stomach knotted. "Trust me, babe," I said, my lips against her ear, hating how much I needed her to go through with it. She shivered, her breath catching, fear mixing with something else as Ramon tightened the knot.
