It was already warm when Madeline returned to Jacques's place the next morning. Her long blonde hair hung down from her wide brimmed sunhat and draped over the straps of her short floral-patterned sundress. The wind blew the heavy industrial steel door shut behind her, making her jump and sending her dress swirling.
She paused, composed her, and continued.
"You're not locked in the box," she murmured demurely, her eyes hidden beneath her sunhat.
"Not today." His French accent seemed even stronger.
"I have a lock," she whispered, holding the cheap padlock that she'd just acquired from the local 7-Eleven in the hope that she could play with him again.
Jacques seemed more intimidating without the alcohol and adrenaline that had coursed through her body the day before. Dressed in black shorts and bare chested, Madeline was again in awe of the body of this sexy contortionist and magician that towered above her.
"Can I tempt you back in?" she flirted, her pre-scripted words not sounding quite as seductive as they had when she had practiced them the night before.
Jacque kissed her on both cheeks and then stepped back to take in the beautiful woman whose eyes appeared to be on the edge of ignition with both arousal and fear. He picked up a pair of handcuffs and listened to her yelp with surprise as he ratcheted one end around her wrist.
With her wide blue eyes now showing more arousal than fear, she tottered on her heels as he led her over to the concrete pillar that supported the old industrial style building. He stretched her hands behind her and around the column and locked her wrists together in the unforgiving restraints.
"Try to escape," he purred.
Madeline rattled her manacled wrists, with her struggles soon flowing through her whole body. Her hips swayed back and forth making her dress lift as she thrust forward into an imaginary lover. Her head flick backward, her wide-brimming hat falling to the floor and her wild blonde hair now framing her face.
"You struggle like most women make love," Jacques smiled admiringly.
Madeline opened her mouth, but nothing passed her breathy lips.
"Audiences would love it," Jacques whispered.
"Come closer," she breathed huskily, her hips stretching for his body.
Jacques was naked beneath his shorts, and he could feel his erect cock swinging as he watched this woman who didn't seem to know whether she wanted to be freed or fucked. With his ego still hurting after being trapped in his own contortion box, he pressed himself against her and coolly slipped a small handcuff pick into her palm.
"Let me show you," he mouthed, guiding her fingers to position the pick beneath the handcuff ratchet.
But Madeline was still focused on him, having fallen for his body, his accent and the thrill of being tied up.
"You're helpless in my cuffs," he whispered.
"Kiss me!" Madeline cried, exasperated by her restraints.
"I'll teach you..."
Madeline's trembling hand finally found the ratchet, her fingers willing the cuff to release her. She cried out in delight as the lock disengaged. She crouched down with the heavy handcuffs resting in her lap as she quickly released her second wrist and then paced forward with the handcuffs swinging from her hand.
"Now your turn..." she smiled, her manicured fingers ensnaring Jacques's wrist.
Madeline stretched her arms around both Jacques and the concrete column and tightly ratcheted the handcuffs in place. Their lips touched as the ratchets engaged, followed by an unmistakable click.
"Not double locks!" Jacques called as if reprimanding a child.
"Sorry." Madeline almost looked innocent until her glossy lips broke into a smile.
"You know?"
Madeline nodded, her tanned thighs flexing as she treated him to a quick roll of her hips
Jacques's muscular arms contorted to position the pick in the lock, even though he knew it was pointless with the deadlocks engaged. Madeline just shook her head sadly.
"Locked in your box... and now locked in your own cuffs."
"I think the key is over there," he sighed as he let the pick drop.
Madeline clicked her fingers and pointed to the floor. Her determined blue eyes stalked him as he slid against the concrete column and down on to the dusty floor. Madeline now paced back and forth, his eyes following her from below the level of her short dress, her legs drawing closer to his manacled body.
"Do you know any magic?" she teased, her fingers easing up the hem of her dress.
"Fuck, Maddie," he whispered, his muscled arms conceding the battle with his chains and instead leaning in to kiss her inner thighs. There was no point in fighting, he was trapped until the headstrong blonde decided otherwise. He shook his hips in an attempt to free his tangled erection and then pressed his lips into her white thong.
"Oh, you do know magic," Madeline breathed, "This should be our act..."

Jacques sat patiently, still handcuffed to the pillar while Madeline meandered back and forth exploring his contortion and escapology equipment. Finally, she dragged his contortion box over to the pillar and sat provocatively on top. She opened her legs and tapped the thick Perspex lid of the small steel framed box.
