The next day, Sunday, my nipples were so sore, I couldn't wear a shirt. In the middle of the afternoon, Maxine, who had been sunning herself in the backyard, came into my den office wearing a new skimpy black bikini. She struck a fashion model pose, and looked as beautiful as I had ever seen her look. "Hey sailor, you like?" She winked, waited for my reaction, and then slunk to where I was sitting, straddled my lap and opened a jar of cold cream she had brought with her. She lovingly massaged it into my nipples to soothe them. "Tonight is your turn with the questions, honey."
I don't know if Maxine was being tender because she was afraid that I would be rough on her in my own questioning tonight. I had never hurt my wife, and I didn't know how we would react.
That evening, my own ignorance and naivetΓ© were manifested when Maxine lovingly led me into the bedroom, where I saw ropes leading from the four posters of our bed, and riding crop on my night table. I looked at Maxine, who had changed into a thin, red summer dress, expecting her to strip and spread eagle so I could tie her to the bed, but instead, she gently guided me down on my stomach, and began to tie me.
"I thought it was my turn," I said.
"It is." When she had me secured, she sat back on the bed where my head would be positioned right at her pussy. She then hiked her dress up, and inched down, so I was in perfect position to eat her without even moving. Maxine wore no panties, and when she was satisfied with the position, she just covered my head with her skirt. "Ok. You ask the questions tonight." I then heard Maxine reach over and take the riding crop from my nighttable. Everything under her skirt was bathed in a deep erotic red as the light filtered in through the fabric.
With one hand, she moved my head and mouth to her sex, guiding both direction and pressure. "Well," she finally asked. "What are your questions? The exercise says you have to ask them." Her hand played with my hair through her cotton dress.
I panicked. What questions could I ask her that wouldn't anger her? She continued to caress my hair.
"What's Richie's health club like. Do you think I should join." I asked, knowing this was a safe question.
"No. There aren't that many athletic facilities. You wouldn't enjoy it."
"What's the place like?" I inquired.
"Well, it's really what's called a relaxation center."
I was beginning to get suspicious. Maxine guided my mouth lower and deeper into her pussy, ony letting up when she wanted me to ask her a question.
"What's your new job going to be like?"
"Managing the women relaxation therapists. Richie says they need a strong manager."
She continued to stroke my head and back, and I was getting angry.
"What is a relaxation therapist?" I asked.
"Well. . ." Maxine paused, and placed my head higher so my mouth was on her clit. "Men come and want to spend time relaxing with a woman in a sauna, or get a massage, or just relax and fulfill a fantasy, and our women accomodate them sexually. It's all done very dignified, and non-threatening. Anything the girls do to earn tips is on their own time."
"In other words, it's a massage parlor."
Like unexpected ice water, five blows hit my buttocks. I yelped with each one. "I KNEW you'd assume that! I just knew it. I'm a wife, mother, and school teacher. Do you think I'd work as a hooker in a massage parlor?" She sounded genuinely insulted.
As I tried regrouping from the pain, Maxine pushed my mouth harder onto her sex, and was gripping my hair tightly as she used my mouth as a dildo. "Your questions stink! This is a FUCKING exercise. You're supposed to ask meaningful questions, not make small talk. I asked you about 10 questions last night. Meaningful ones. I think you should ask me 10 as well."
"Yes." was the answer that came out, but the truth is I was petrified to ask any questions.
Maxine lifted her legs a bit to arch against my mouth. She was getting hotter, and she ground her pussy harder into my face. "Get going with your questions," she snapped.
The first one that came to my mind was, "Do you enjoy our sexual relationship the way it is now?"
Maxine seemed to give it a lot of thought. "I'm very frustrated about your impotence. Just when my desire is increasing, your manhood is decreasing. I'm not saying that to hurt you. But now, I understand what you went through with me for all of these years with my desire not being there. But at least you had your masochism as an outlet. Now, I have none."
"If your desire is so strong, why don't we throw the cock cage away, so I could try to satisfy you, and get us back to a good normal relationship?" As I was asking the question, Maxine gently stroked my head.
"You know what happens when you pressure me about that." She said ominously. I imagined another four months locked up in the cock cage.
"But I'm only asking as a question. I'm not pressuring. I promise. Why can't we just try." I asked.
Maxine was silent for a moment. "First of all, you're whining, and I hate that. Secondly, you're being kept locked up because I need to re-learn sexual response in a non- pressure environment. If I've made any sexual improvement, it's really because I've been allowed to grow without constraints. The cock cage has helped that."
"What if we can't straighten it out?" I asked.
"I don't know. I love you very much, and we'll just have to find a way where I can get what I need. Let's let therapy and nature take its course. I do know that I won't repeat your mistake. I won't do without having what I want sexually. I just hope you can provide it."
The discussion was progressing very well, and I decided to test my luck in order to move toward the end of the questions.
"Will I ever be released from it for good?"
