It hadn't occurred to me immediately that the chastity cage upgrade I'd received while we were getting ready to the trip to England was to humiliate me. When Mistress removed the one piece jelly cage and replaced it with a rigid metal penis cage that connected to a split ring around the base of my genitals, I just thought my agreement to become her non-consensual slave on a permanent basis had earned me a fancier and more impressive looking cage. The fact that I'd received an orgasm, even if it was ruined, before the cage was changed made me think I was being rewarded.
The other shoe dropped when I dressed for the flight. Mistress had told me to put on a long sleeved sweater dress with a mid thigh length skirt and a mock turtle neck in a black viscose/lycra mix that was more or less skin tight. No falsies, and no way to tuck the larger cage away out of sight between my legs. I was obviously a cross-dressed sissy rather than trying to pass as a woman, despite the fact that I'd been allowed to pass, sometimes very successfully, when dressed in public before now. My outfit was completed with a pair of fishnet knee socks and my platform mary janes. The cage wasn't any bigger than the one piece jelly one, but it was a lot more obvious. It also registered on the metal detector as we passed through the security check before boarding the airliner. After the explanation of that and an examination by one of the HSA officers who'd been infesting airports over the three years since 9/11, I didn't even blink when Mistress took the ballet pumps she was wearing as her own traveling footwear off and told me to worship her feet once the plane was finally in the air. I spent what felt like hours but was probably only thirty minutes or so sucking her toes, licking her feet and feeling my cock test the limits of its new imprisonment in front of the other passengers in the half empty business class compartment. Getting hard in this one did hurt a lot more than the jelly cage had. At least we weren't in carriage class, I told myself as I felt sneaked glances and blatant rubbernecking on me for the rest of the flight. Cathexis were up in First so they missed the show, though Mistress and our tour manager Lydia had explained the bassist in their support band's new outlook on life to them when we briefly met in the departure lounge. I'd gone down on all fours and kissed Mistress' feet there in front of everybody. Being exposed like that had given me such a thrill I'd probably have come on the spot if my cock wasn't caged.
Even before the plane came in to land in the UK, I was getting the idea that this was going to be a very different tour to any I'd taken part in before becoming a slave.
"Just why," Earl said, "are we doing an interview with some limey hack out here when the papers are based in London and we're playing there on Saturday?"
Kara gave him a speculative look then turned to Mistress and Arabella. "You girls going to tell him," she said, "or shall I?"
Arabella smiled. "Go for it." Mistress patted my head and nodded.
"The hack has probably done something to piss off the editor," Kara said, "so they've sent her out here, instead of letting them do the interview in London. Also, all the fuss about those shows is going to be over the headliners, but they can get away with talking to the no mark support band out in the sticks."
"Right," Earl said. "So where the hell is she?" The hack was running late. To be fair, we couldn't have found this pub if it hadn't been so close to the hotel we were booked into for the night. We'd literally got off the plane, made our way there, got changed and eaten, then made our way here. The Holiday Inn was in some sort of midget industrial estate, and was a short walk though an underpass to the pub. It wasn't really the sort of grim dive you'd meet Brian Glover in on a moor in Yorkshire, but I felt that we probably looked a little out of place, having made an effort to dress up for the hack.
Mistress was wearing one of the black PVC catsuits she'd acquired for stage wear. We'd only be in the country for a fortnight and were playing a mere ten shows, so she thought rotating a couple of them would be good enough for the whole tour, as she was going to be stuck behind a drum kit on stage anyway. The catsuit was sleeveless, showing off her lean, muscular arms. She wore a pair of patent leather elastic sided ballet pumps, which she probably wouldn't bother with onstage.
Arabella was wearing a black rubber vest dress with white high heeled cowboy boots and jeans jacket. Her bad cowboy hat, black felt with a leather band of silver conchos, sat on the table top next to her drink. Kara was more rock chick looking: leopard print leggings, ankle boots with kitten heels, a baggy black t shirt and a low slung bondage belt. Earl was sporting a pair of leather jeans, another black t shirt and a battered pair of Doc Martens he was planning to replace before leaving the country.
For my own part I was wearing a black PVC bondage harness with matching chaps and sleeves buckled to the corset looking garter belt and the shoulder epaulets between the collar and the breast cups my flat chest didn't fill. The bottom part, connected to the garter was a g string that bared my buttocks. My face was more heavily made up than any of the girls', my hair was bleached bone white apart from the pink streaks dyed into it, and I was kneeling at Mistress' side.
The whole situation was deliciously humiliating, even without journalists from the NME arriving. The photographer took a photo of the American goth country band grouped around the pub table, then another when Mistress put her hand on my head and the rest of the band adjusted their poses. I kept my eyes lowered. The interview didn't take long. The photographer took individual close ups of Arabella, Kara and Earl and one of Mistress smirking at the camera as I kissed her PVC coated ass. The final photo was taken outside in the car park, and for that one Mistress slipped her pumps off and handed them to the hack, then had me go down on all fours and kiss her left foot while she rested the other on top of my head, her bent knee shifting the cuff of her catsuit up a little and better exposing the anklet with a key and a "HW" inscribed charm around her right ankle. My hands were flat on the floor and my left side was facing the photographer, so maybe the tattooed wedding band that filled the bottom joint of left ring finger with Mistress' name and Celtic knot work would show up on the photo as well.
I wondered what the lead time on reviews for the NME were. Maybe the issue with the article would appear while we were still in the country. I was out as a slave in print as well as on the internet now. It felt surprisingly good, and not being allowed to talk to the NME stringer felt like more of a blessing than a burden.
