"From Tame To Tamed: 2. Another Man's Lap"
As I related previously, the normal tame sex life I had with my wife was altered the night we met Karl and his wife, Cynthia. On that first night Karl had expertly manipulated the situation: he got my wife, Laura, to agree to stop in a local strip club, and later (to my astonishment) took advantage of my wife's submissive nature and coaxed her into giving him a lap dance in their kitchen. It wasn't an explicit dance - no clothing was removed - and it ended before anything graphic occurred, but the evening proved that maybe Laura and I weren't as tame as we had previously thought.
In the weeks afterwards, Laura and I never spoke openly about the episode. We never questioned ourselves, never examined why we had allowed it to happen, and never speculated on the consequences. Was it shame or fear that kept us from talking about it? Or were we grappling with understanding who we truly were? And did Laura resent me for allowing, if not encouraging, Karl to get her to submit to him?
However, during the throes of passion, while making love, I would whisper about another man controlling her. My submissive wife never said a word, but as she listened to me talk about her being used by a stranger she always got hotter. As I detailed her being forced to fuck and suck a stranger (never mentioned by name) our passion quickly built to orgasms. And yet, outside of the bedroom, we never broached the subject.
We ran into Karl and Cynthia a month later, again at the local pub where our favorite band was playing. We were having a good time when Karl took the opportunity to slow dance with Laura. What I remember was that he didn't ask her to dance; he told her, "It's time; let's dance," and she willingly obeyed. I watched them on the dance floor, their bodies close but Karl doing nothing inappropriate. It was only later, at home, that Laura told me that she had felt his erection while they were dancing. Oh, she also admitted that it had turned her on.
The following weekend I received a text. "Our place, tonight, 8:30." Again, more a Karl order than an invitation. As we had no plans, we decided to go. Around 7:30 I found Laura changing for our 'date', putting on a white blouse and black skirt. I wondered if she was dressing for me or for Karl, but said nothing.
"You're right on time," Karl joked as he let us in. "Punctuality is next to godliness." He took Laura's hand and kissed her on the cheek. "Cynthia will here shortly. Come in."
We spent a few minutes catching up on the week, talked about the band we saw (Karl gave his approval), got beers in the kitchen, then adjourned to the living room. We were just getting comfortable when Cynthia came in the front door cradling a cardboard box. "I'm sorry I'm late," she said, "but ... wine!"
To me, Karl said, "Al, assist her."
Now Karl could have gotten up to help his wife. And he could have ASKED me to do it. But, no, he TOLD me to assist her, and in such a matter-of-fact voice that, at the time, I thought nothing of it. Maybe I was just happy to help Cynthia. Or maybe I was revealing my own submissiveness. In any event, I got up, took the box of bottles from Cynthia, and carried them into the kitchen.
When we returned to the living room, Cynthia kissed her husband and sat next to him. The four of us chatted for awhile, until Karl asked, "Have you returned to the Paddywagon lately?" (That was the strip club we had gone to the previous month.) We told him we hadn't, and he said, "We'll venture there again some time. Not tonight, of course, but another night. We'll make a date of it."
When our beers were finished, I joined Cynthia in the kitchen to help fetch another round of drinks. As I brought them to the living room, Cynthia excused herself to change upstairs. Karl was deep in conversation with my wife discussing '50 Shades of Gray,' saying, "It was a number one book for months. Number one! It certainly touched a nerve for women."
I joined in. "Laura tried to read them but couldn't take the writing."
"The writing was the turn-off? Not the subject matter?"
"No, no," I said. "I mean: I don't think so."
We both turned to Laura for her response. After some deliberation, she said, "No, not really. I guess it can be ... stimulating as a fantasy. "
"Are we sharing fantasies now?" Cynthia asked as she returned from upstairs, in tee shirt and yoga pants.
Karl gave her an admiring glance. "Yoga pants! Now there's every man's fantasy. Am I right, Al?"
"Oh, he certainly agrees," Laura said as she squeezed my thigh.
"They sure highlight a woman's ass." Karl smiled as his wife playfully pushed her butt out for us to admire. "And look at that awesome ass!"
Slightly embarrassed, she stopped posing. She walked to him, gave him a peck on the cheek, and squeezed herself into his love seat. The room was getting more sexually charged by the minute!
"Are you an ass man?" Karl asked me.
The question took my by surprise - he was so blunt, so direct - but before I could say anything Laura answered for me: "Oh, most definitely."
"Most men are. It's a primeval sexual impulse." And now more sex talk. At first it was mostly generalities - the difference between men and women, the change in fashions and attitudes - but gradually Karl got more personal, letting us know about their sex life. He said that for them sex seemed to get better as they got older, that they enjoyed an active and interesting sex life, that Cynthia was quite the 'willing and able' bed partner. Through all this, Cynthia sat quietly. When he began asking questions about our sex life - about how adventurous we were - my wife remained quiet and squeezed my hand tightly. Clearly uncomfortable with the openness of the topic she welcomed Cynthia's offer of a second beer, hoping the break would bring a change of subject.
Cynthia headed to the kitchen and returned with a round of drinks. She handed us ours, then walked to the love seat. She set her glass on one side table. As she leaned over Karl to set his glass on the other side table, he gave her butt an ungentle slap. To us he said, "Isn't it surprising ow many women enjoy a good spanking?" He grabbed her wrist to keep her in position, but continued talking to us. "I'm guessing most women are like Cynthia here - sexually submissive. She'll do almost anything I ask her to."
He tried to gage our reaction. Had he shocked us? Offended us? Scared us away? Realizing that he hadn't, he continued: "And she enjoys a good ass spanking - the harder the better." He looked at his wife approvingly, then turned to us. "Do you ever spank Laura?" he asked me.
Again Laura squeezed my hand tightly. I knew she didn't want me to answer, and normally I wouldn't have, but being a little buzzed from the beers and a little turned on by the situation I was ready to go where Karl led us. "Sometimes."
"Does she enjoy it?"
"Yes, she does."
"Do you enjoy doing it?"
"Yes. I do."
