Annabelle and I had always kept the female led part of our relationship private. This changed one evening because of an offhand comment I made to one of her closest friends.
Laura, a dancer in her youth, doesn't look her fifty years, which is a few years older than us. Now an interior designer she was looking for a new job and had come for dinner and some support before an interview. She fretted over the interview as I walked her to her taxi and, fuelled by wine, I made an offhand comment in an attempt to cheer her up, "never forget the power of a good pair of tits in any negotiation".
I thought nothing more of my comment until I came home from work a few days later. Annabelle was in a visibly bad mood.
"I've just spoken to Laura".
"Oh, how did the job interview go?"
"Badly."
"There's always next time I suppose."
"What did you say to her?"
"Nothing, I haven't spoken to her since dinner the other night."
As I spoke, I remembered my comment. My face clearly registered my recall because Annabelle reacted.
"Yes, that, your comment about her tits. What were you thinking? She's in a vulnerable place at the moment, no job, no man and you say that the day before a job interview."
My apology only half accepted, Annabelle didn't mention it again until the weekend. I entered the bedroom on Friday night and on the bed was the chastity device we occasionally use for tease and denial games. I knew not to argue or question her and went to our adjoining bathroom, showered, dried off then returned naked. Annabelle put the cage on me and, as the click of the padlock sounded, announced that I would be locked for one month as punishment for my comment to Laura. This was longer than I'd ever been locked, I'd done twenty days before her birthday. I'd also be expected to apologise to Laura.
Three weeks later Laura came to dinner and as I returned from clearing the dishes Annabelle announced that it was time for my apology. I made a full and wholesome apology, which Laura accepted, but that wasn't the end of it. Annabelle announced that the next part of my punishment could now happen.
"Next part, what was the first?" Asked Laura.
"Chastity a month's chastity, he has a week to go."
