I gripped the key in my hand so hard that it was biting into my skin, I could see the door at the end of the hallway and knew that this was it. If I turn back now I will never be able to move forward, I had dreamed of this for years and now I had the opportunity to make this fantasy a reality. The advertisement had said choose your own destiny, live the hidden fantasy and make your dreams a reality. I was looking at it as an opportunity to sample a fantasy, to delve into a lifestyle without making a commitment. It was my opportunity to make sure that this was really something I wanted and something that I could handle or if this was forever meant to be only a fantasy. Something to play with in my mind without any real consequences, the things you accept in a fantasy are painless, the only sensation is the eroticism of the act. Anyone can stand to be caned or whipped within the realms of their mind, did I dare to try it in reality.
The emailed instructions had been concise and it was clearly stipulated that I must follow the instructions without any deviation. Even the slightest deviation from the guidelines would have repercussions, all repercussions would be painful and extreme.
I had studied the rules for weeks, I had practiced the poses for hours. For the last three weeks I had forced myself to sit in specific poses not allowing myself to lift my head, forcing myself to concentrate and teaching my body to accept sensory deprivation. I knew that physically I was ready but my concern was that emotionally I could tip the balance either way, I would either whither and shrink away never daring to delve into my fantasies again or I would wholeheartedly embrace my fantasy and crave it constantly never again to be satisfied with out it.
I squared my shoulders lifted my chin and walked to the door, my stomach churned and my heart beat frantically but I couldn't turn away. I slipped the key into the lock, turned it and gently pushed the door open. I stepped into the darkened room, there was a slight chill in the air and I felt my skin prickle. I moved to the left side of the room as instructed, I slipped of my shoes and placed them in the designated basket. My courage was beginning to wain, it was time to strip, I had a limited amount of time to be in position, hesitation on my part would bring about repercussions.
So with fingers that trembled I slowly removed my clothes and placed them into the designated basket. I had followed the rules and instructions in the email to the letter, my whole body had been waxed and buffed to perfection, I wore no make up, no moisturizer and no perfume, as demanded in the email my body was in a completely natural state. I was starting to panic I was sure my time was running out, I needed to get myself to the white circle in the middle of the room and into position to wait for the master.
I knelt to the floor, curled my toes to a pointed position, aligned my back perfectly straight, my arms bent and running flat against the top of my thighs, my palms face up and my fingers together in perfect alignment I dropped my chin to my chest then took several large breathes in and out to relax myself and waited and waited. I started to count my own heart beat, just to have something to focus on, my stress levels started to rise I could feel panic setting in and then just as I was reaching the point of flight I heard the key turn and the door eased open.
I struggled desperately to keep my head down, the urge to look up to get a glimpse of my fantasy master was overwhelming. The silence was deafening and the fear of the unknown was causing my muscles to tighten and cramp, how much longer could I hold this pose, I begged myself to stay strong not to show any weakness, not to give in to my fears. Warm breath whispered at my ear and finally the tap to my shoulder, this was the signal to drop to the second position. Without hesitation I bent my upper body to the floor, stretching my arms out in front of me, my right palm laid over my left, my fingers aligned and my thumbs tucked in.
I felt his eyes on me burning into my back but he remained silent, this form of sensory deprivation was torture, there was no blindfold and yet I could not see, my ears were not plugged and yet I could not hear, my mouth was not gagged and yet I could not speak, my body was not bound and yet fear kept me immobilized. How did a man I had never met in person take so much control from me, how had he so easily reduced me to this.
I felt a sharp pain at the base of my neck it was brief but it was there, then I felt a pointed object slowly trace down my back following the line of my spine, it wasn't painful but it wasn't comfortable.
The point stopped just as it reached the crease of my backside, he just held it there taunting me, the anticipation of what was to come made my whole body quiver. He must have noticed my movement, an indiscretion on my part, the point moved and I heard the swish and then I felt it. A searing pain across my right arse cheek, a few seconds later it turned to a red hot burn and then slowly faded to a bearable warmth. I involuntarily gasped with the pain and heard his first audible noise in the form of a rumbling chest chuckle.
The point returned, this time pressing into the ball of my right foot. The pain was intense and yet the ache was felt at the juncture of my thighs. My body wept with the erotic sensation, I felt the moisture pool between my legs and my nipples peaked painfully. I wanted to scream, to beg, but to beg for what, for the master stop, no he had barely begun, to beg for more, for more of what or would I beg for freedom. There was nothing binding me here, I was free to leave, all I had to do was call out STOP and it was over and I could walk away no questions asked but I knew that that word would not pass my lips, what scared me was that I knew he knew it too.
The final tap to my shoulder came and I rose gracefully to my feet in a well practiced and well choreographed movement, I was proud of my graceful achievement. I stood my feet together, my back perfectly straight, my shoulders back and my hands clasped behind my back, my chin still rested on my chest, I had not succumbed to the overwhelming urge to look to the master.
I heard his sudden intake of breath and I knew that he too appreciated my grace, my heart swelled with pride and my back straightened just a little more. Praise is such an important dynamic, regardless of experience or personal knowledge of the master.
I sensed him moving away from me and I heard him opening and closing drawers, when he returned it was the heat radiating from his body that caught my attention. He stood behind me for several minutes his hot breath warming the base of my neck and then without any warning I felt them cold metal encasing my wrists and the click of them closing echoed around the room. Reality suddenly hit me, I was at his mercy, I opened my mouth instinctively ready to call out STOP!!!
Just as I was about to utter the dreaded word a large warm hand palmed across my stomach, the fingers spanning from hip to hip, their warmth was soothing, his voice low he whispered at the base of my right ear. "Breathe slowly in and out, release the fear building inside you and embrace the heat and excitement that runs within your blood. I can smell your excitement, you cannot deny it your body will not allow you. You need this to continue, your body craves a master, all of your fears are only in your mind, they are not within your body and soul.
The warmth from his hand and his soothing tone help me relax and my fears begin to dissipate,
His other hand moves and glides up my arm over my silken skin to rest at the base of my neck. His fingers curl and close gripping my hair and my head is suddenly jerked upright. I still cannot see him but I feel him blow a breath of warm air across my breasts and his tongue reaches out and skims the inner rim of my ear. The sensation is breathtaking and my back arches involuntarily, his fingers tighten in my hair a warning to be still.
The email instructions were clear, no movement allowed unless instructed by the master, so I hold myself in check not daring to move. Thoughts run through my mind frantically, if I was to move what would he do, my excitement is beginning to override my fear and although I know there will be repercussions I cannot help myself and I strain against his hold anticipating reprisal, desperately wanting to experience his ultimate control.
The hand on my stomach moves and in a heartbeat it rises to my right breast, his fingers close around my peaked nipple and he twists violently. The pain is excruciating and my body writhes in agony but he does not release me. Instead he pulls tighter on my hair and tips my head back further putting pressure on the muscles in my neck and forcing my breasts to rise and lift towards the heavens. I should have known better than to test him, I suddenly realize the foolishness of my actions, he will not allow me to control this scene. What I am to experience within this room will be of his choosing not some manufactured scenario that I imagine for myself.
