Celia shifted in her chair as much as she could, which was not a lot at all. Coils of rope encircled her wrists and were in turn tied to the back of the chair. Her ankles were each tied to a chair leg, and more rope wrapped around her thighs stretched her legs as far apart as they would go.
The large ball gag in her mouth made her drool, and this had run over her chin and onto her chest. The clover clamps on her nipples had caused them to go somewhat numb, and she knew it would hurt later when removed. For now, all she could feel was the cooling effect from the wetness. Every time she shifted she could hear, and feel, the jingling of the chain connecting the two clamps.
Of course, she could not see any of this. The blindfold had come first. The ball gag was next. Celia knew she could still end all of this. Three short grunts were the gagged equivalent of her safe word. Still, when she allowed him to take her power of speech, that had been an act of submission that not even the rope binding her to the chair now could quite equal. It made her feel intensely vulnerable and yet, at the same time, felt like a supreme act of empowerment.
More than once she had to fight the panicking urge to make it stop. "Be brave Celia!" she thought to herself. "You asked to be here, now finish what you started."
Following the gag her clothes had gone. Upon instruction she had first stepped out of her little black dress, followed by her bra. She was allowed to keep the sheer black panties, the equally sheer black stockings, and the heels.
That had been before he had put his hands on her naked shoulders and guided her into the room. The room itself was a mystery to her. The blindfold kept her in darkness, and once she had been secured to the chair all had gone silent. In the long tense minutes that followed her whole world consisted of her nudity, the rope, the clamps on her nipples, and that gag.
Cold steel touched her thigh. Celia gasped before she heard the snip of the scissors. First one side then another. Her panties were sticky from her wetness as he pulled them from between her legs.
His hand clasped her chin, lifting it towards him. Celia was intensely aware of his gaze even though she could not see a thing. Still he said nothing, and she resisted the urge to try and speak, knowing full well how incapable she was of saying anything intelligible.
