When I came downstairs this morning I was still completely pissed off. Through all our years together, I knew she had the capability to be a complete bitch at times but last night's performance, a moody really immature display in front our family and guests was the limit. It wasn't even as if she had been drunk or anything, in fact the opposite was true. She had simply gone off in an almighty sulk and ruined everyone's night. I had noticed a couple of them looking at me with an expression that said 'Why doesn't he take her in hand?'
To a large extent it was my own fault. I have always been non-confrontational, and went out of my way to avoid a shouting match. Well no more. This morning I would address the problem and when she came down I would resist the inevitable apologies with downcast eyes and offers to make it up.
I made a coffee and took it across the yard to my workshop which was in an outbuilding of our rural home. There was a wooden stool I often used when working. It was about three feet and length and 18 inches deep. I drilled a hole about half way along the length and a couple of inches in from the edge. I unlocked a cupboard and retrieved a conical object, and after drilling some smaller holes in its base, positioned it over the hole in the stool and used some small bolts to fasten it, pointing upwards, to the stool.
I positioned the stool in the centre of the workspace and returned to the house. When I got into the kitchen she was up and dressed in her habitual fashion, a baggy sweater and a pair of old jeans I would have been ashamed to wear to fix the car.
When she saw me she started the old 'let's make up' routine and I stopped her in her tracks by telling her that last night was completely unacceptable, that we had gone through this before and it was clear she needed some help in focussing on normal decent grown up behaviour. She started to speak and I silenced her by holding up my hand and insisting on her agreement or otherwise
Barely audible she agreed, but I insisted that she say it loud and clear, which she did, albeit falteringly.
I told her to get undressed and she looked at me as if I had slapped her.
I should explain some things about my wife. For her age she is extremely shapely and good looking but for some reason she insists on dressing in the most unattractive and unrevealing clothes. I haven't seen her naked for years as even when we make love, she always gets into bed in her bra and panties and covers herself with the sheet before we can remove her things. Where this puritanical streak came from a few years after we married is a total mystery to me, and as for trying anything remotely risquΓ© in the bedroom department, forget it.
She gave a whimper which I knew translated exactly as 'do I have to?' and I told her in a stern voice to 'Get naked -- NOW!!'
I could see her trying to decide how far she could push me and saw a look of resignation come across her face as it dawned on her that I was deadly serious.
She peeled off her jumper and I saw that she was wearing her black lingerie. I wondered what the occasion was while registering that, whatever the reason, it pleased me. Next came the denims -- you couldn't really describe these shapeless things as jeans.
With these removed, and standing before me in just her bra and panties, a sight rarely seen and always pleasing, she looked at me with pleading eyes. With a flick of my finger I indicated that she should remove them, and with a genuine sigh she did, first removing the bra to reveal her still attractive breasts and then her panties. She stood there before me buck naked with her eyes boring holes in the kitchen floor.
I considered stopping there, as her humiliation was great and genuine and I am sure she would learn no greater lesson as a result of the additional indignities I had in mind. However, as they say in the quiz show, 'I've started -- so I'll finish.'
I went to her and lifted her chin so she was looking at my face but still she kept her eyes downcast.
I had brought a couple of things from the cupboard in the workshop. First I fitted a dog collar round her neck and secured it. It was stout, made from thick leather and was studded and fitted with three D rings. For the first time she met my eyes and her expression was first quizzical and then compliant.
Next, I fitted leather cuffs to her wrists and when they were in place I told her to clasp her hands behind her head. She hesitated for a brief moment and then did as she was told and once in place I used a padlock to secure her cuffs to one of the collar rings. Finally I fitted leather ankle cuffs to her.
She looked at me again and this time her expression was a mixture of sadness and fear.
I picked up her clothes and told her to follow me to the workshop and again she looked totally shocked. It was something of an extreme for her to be naked at all but to venture outside in the nude was unthinkable. Worse than that, the way her hands were fixed, she had no means of covering her modesty.
I told her to get her arse over there now and strode out ahead of her. On my way through the utility room I removed a garment from the clothes horse and set out across the yard. It was about fifty yards from the house door to the workshop and halfway across I turned and saw her cowering just inside the house door. I shouted that if she did not come this second it would be worse for her, and that seemed to convince her as she started to cross the yard, in all her glory, tentatively at first and then at a frantic pace. She had almost caught up with me by the time I reached the workshop and as I got there I opened one of the rubbish bins that stood outside and dumped her jumper and jeans in it.
Again the symbolism of this act was not lost on her and she now displayed a great deal of apprehension.
When we entered the workshop and she saw the stool with a large flared butt plug pointing skyward her apprehension turned to sheer terror.
I was not about to waste any time. Secretly I was afraid I would lose my resolve so I got right into it. I told her to kneel before the stool and get the butt plug as wet as she could as that was all the lubrication she would be afforded.
She stood motionless and trembling so I grabbed her by her collar and led her forward, pushing her to her knees as if praying to some weird religious artefact and finally bending her forward so her mouth was against the black silicone.
This was of course mind games and humiliation. I did intent to lube it before it impaled her. I busied myself organising bits and pieces from my cupboard and then I returned to her.
I explained that after last night's performance it was clear to me that we had failed to address her behaviour issues by dialogue and reason, and as such the only thing left to me was to enforce a standard of decent and social behaviour. And to aid me in enforcing it she would be subjected to a four part punishment and a set of rules that would set crystal clear boundaries on how she should conduct herself.
I told her that she would first be tied up, and then I would explain in more detail what was in store for her. 'Tied up?' It sounds quite benign when you say it like that.
I raised her to her feet and placed her with her back to the stool. I lubricated the butt plug without letting on and moving in front of her positioned her in front of it. The terror in her eyes was now mixed with pleading, but still she did not speak.
I spread her legs as much as I could and encouraged her into a sitting position. You must understand of course that the thought of employing a sex toy in any way would never have crossed her mind, but the concept of having a foreign body invade her arse would have been bewildering and abhorrent in equal measures.
