She hung there in a state of complete depletion, the fact that the phrase itself was an oxymoron not escaping her notice. The mental exhaustion was almost harder to bear than the physical exhaustion, which was strange because she'd always considered her strong mind one of her best assets. In lots of ways, he was teaching her that she was his vessel, his alone ... and that she must come to accept it if she was ever to find true happiness. Meaning that her mind must begin to accept it as well. I know way more about ginger than I ever wanted to, she thought to herself, just as another wave of cramps clamped down on her intestines, a leftover reaction to what was just one of several indignities visited upon her body over this past night. At least it no longer felt like there was a fire burning in her gut. That had finally stopped after she'd expelled the last of the detritus from her intestines and felt it drip all the way down her legs and off her feet.
She'd had lots of time to think, hanging there on the wall for the last several hours. He'd left her alone on the board, telling her she would remain just as she was until he came back for her the next day. It was into the wee hours of the morning now, although it could've been dawn and she would have had no way of knowing it, for she had been blindfolded and made to wear earplugs as well. Her mouth gaped open, another line of drool slipping from it, the ring gag doing a fine job of keeping her silent. At least I can breathe better in this than in the ball gag, the thought her only consolation.
Her only indication of the passage of time was that long 10-minute period each hour when the vibrator lodged securely inside her cunt would click on and send a whole new set of shock waves through her already exhausted body.
He had been angry with her, of that there was no doubt. Admittedly, she'd been distracted with the things going on in both their lives. Still, as he had told her in no uncertain terms, her job was not to worry about that but to do what he asked, when he asked her to do it, and she had been very lax about it lately. He'd also said she too often didn't address people properly when she should and, even worse, spoke when she should have remained silent. He was attempting to make her see that she was his and was, therefore, a direct reflection on him in the way she spoke, acted and presented herself.
She wondered, not for the first time, nor she was sure the last, whether he had even bothered to check on her. He was aware of her panic attacks, knew how devastating they could be, the feeling of not being able to free herself even in everyday situations bringing them on suddenly. Her meds were safely in her purse, as if she could reach that now. She hadn't even considered how to set up a "safe word" when you were in this position, and he had not mentioned it, either. And he was always so careful of such things. That fact alone led her to believe that he was around ... in and out perhaps ... checking on her well-being and probably very much enjoying her silence for a change, not to mention seeing her helpless and nearly drained of all bodily fluids. Even her mind felt empty for long periods of time now. Funny, though, with everything else going on in her body and her mind, she had somehow managed to escape the crippling fear of a panic attack.
It had all started when she'd failed to complete the task he had assigned to her last Friday, that being to wear her bullet all day at work and to make herself cum in four different locations. Because of something that had happened at home, she'd not even gotten to the office until 2:00 in the afternoon, and she'd been too exhausted to think about doing as he'd asked. While that may have been a forgivable situation, the fact that she'd forgotten to inform him right away of her inability to complete the task had pretty much sent him over the edge. That's when he'd brought up the rest ... all the ways she had been coming up short lately in her duties to him.
He'd made her sit next to him on the couch, her back turned toward him so that he could remove the lacing from her corset-style top. Slowly, methodically, he'd unlaced each row and pulled the ribbon through before proceeding to the next row, finally reaching the top and letting the front fall off and onto the couch. He slid the ribbon around his neck and left it hanging there. His hands sliding up and down her spine had felt wonderful, and she'd almost begun to relax as his palms slid around her ribs to the front of her body, cupping her breasts and kneading them gently, her nipples responding so beautifully and hardening beneath his touch. She'd even felt her own wetness build as he teased her with his touch.
Suddenly, he'd lifted her into his arms, laying his lips on her breast and sucking a nipple into his mouth, carrying her to the dungeon. She remembered arching her back in an effort to press her nipple further into his mouth, only to have him bite down hard on it, leaving broken skin behind. He had chuckled then, as she'd cried out and hissed in pain. "Oh, you like that?", he'd had the nerve to ask, as he smirked and clamped down on the other nipple with the same force, breaking the skin on it as well. She'd screamed then, using her hands in an attempt to pull his mouth away from her breasts. "Sir, please, you're hurting me!"
Her reward was to be abruptly deposited on the floor in front of him, his hands slapping hers away from him. He'd handed her a set of cuffs and told her to put them on and then follow him to the board across the room on the wall. She very carefully attached the cuffs to each wrist and ankle as he had instructed. Knowing what was coming, she struggled slightly as he lifted her and began to fasten her to the wall by the restraints she had just put on. Finally deciding it was futile, she had complied almost docilely. Only later would she begin to see that this may have been her latest mistake.
Once attached to the wall, she'd whimpered almost silently and watched him very closely as he walked back and forth in front of her, occasionally pausing to glance in her direction. Finally, as if making up his mind about something, he'd walked up next to her and sucked her left nipple into his mouth again. She squirmed, hissing in a painful breath. "Sir, please, it is very sore," she said, which merely won her a look that she clearly knew meant he did not care, and he rolled his tongue around the nipple, flicking it. She moaned again in spite of herself, feeling her nipple betray her by beginning to pucker nicely under his ministrations. He then moved to the other nipple, giving it the same treatment, flicking it with his tongue, and resting his hands lightly on her hips where her warm skin met with the silky drape of her skirt. Of their own volition, her hips bucked up from the wall and toward his warmth, the wetness between her thighs beginning to build as he continued to suckle her breasts, her breath coming in pants.
Abruptly, he'd stopped and pulled a smallish box from his pocket, opening it and removing a small silver round piece, which he held in his palm, flipping it up into the air like a coin, deftly catching it in his hand again. He turned from her and walked over to the freezer, her eyes watching each movement he made, curious what he was up to with the object.
He made noises, opening the cabinet to remove a glass, filling it with several ice cubes, and then returning to stand near her at the bar. Reaching over, he removed the cap from the bottle and poured himself a double scotch. She'd shivered slightly then, realizing that the scotch did not bode well for her, as his mood usually darkened when he drank. She watched closely as he took a long sip of his drink, sucking a piece of ice into his mouth from the glass, hearing the tinkling sound of the ice cubes as he set the drink down on a nearby table.
Removing the ice from his mouth with his fingers, he touched it to her left nipple, already hard and red. She hissed in a breath, watching as the ice melted and the water trickled across her nipple, feeling the coldness of it. As she watched his dark fingers, he'd smiled up at her and touched her right nipple softly with the cube, then pressed down hard, forcing a gasp from between her lips as her broken skin was brutalized again.
Still smiling, he stepped away from her body and squatted down to unbuckle her shoes ... first one, letting it drop to the floor, then the other. As she watched from her perch, she began to feel the tingling in her arms that signaled their getting numb. She knows the pain will soon follow, for it hurts almost as much when they fall asleep as when the sensation returns to them. He reached into his nearly empty scotch glass and retrieved another ice cube, this time trailing it along the arch of her bare left foot, watching for her reaction. She yelped, trying to pull her foot away, but her efforts prove useless in the restraints. "Please, Sir, I am very ticklish. I beg you to stop!" As she felt herself start to become moist between her legs from the sheer sensation of helplessness, her bladder responded to the tickling with a little contraction of its own. She'd always wanted to pee when she's tickled. An automatic response.
He smiled up at her, reaching over for a bottle of water he'd placed on the table earlier, removed the cap and held it to her lips. At first, the water had seemed like a gift, she'd been so thirsty. He held it for her, her greedy lips wrapping around the opening and sucking the water down in big gulps. He allowed her to drink her fill, then placed the empty bottle on the table. "Thank you, Sir. I was so very thirsty." Little did she know, that was just the first of seven bottles of water she would be forced to drink.
