"You Thought I Would Never do it!"
Kaci follows through on something we've joked about...
If you've been reading along in the saga of how, over the course of the last year, my wife Kaci has been embracing my wish that she be more playfully assertive and frisky with me, you may recall that while telling some friends about how she sometimes ties me naked to the bed, Kaci mentioned that we joke about the idea that she might bring in a dominatrix, some expert who really knows what she is doing in this arena. Just a joke, right? Well, our anniversary has come around again, and guess what?
We're all well over eighteen here, and though Kaci and I are (based on) real people, Marne is totally made up.... for now, at least. Her role as a dominatrix and what happens to me probably means that BDSM is the likely category for this, but for me it's really a Romance about how my Loving Wife gets creative in delivering on my erotic fantasies... so we'll see where the Lit Gurus put it.
"Your anniversary present to me is a Dominatrix???"
"Well, not to have forever, or even for a year until our next anniversary, it's just for one session," my wife Kaci replied, smiling brightly. "Unless you really enjoy it, that is. Then we'll have to see about a package arrangement."
It was our 15
th
anniversary, and we were sharing a celebratory candlelight dinner in a quiet booth, tucked away in a corner of one of our most favorite restaurants. We had plenty of privacy for this conversation. After drinks had shown up and we ordered our meals, Kaci and I had both put our anniversary gifts to each other out on the table. Mine to her was in a small blue flat box tied up with a white ribbon; and hers for me was in a deep-red square envelope. She is easy to buy for -- jewelry is always welcome, as is clothing - and she seems to appreciate my taste in both. Fifteen years is a bigger one, so I had looked around until I found what I felt would be the perfect ruby pendant -- it came from the same place as our wedding rings. Kaci nearly gasped when she opened the box; I knew immediately that she loved it. I, on the other hand, am a little harder to buy for, so I was a bit perplexed as to what this envelope might contain.
I reached over to pick it up; even the envelope itself seemed luxurious. It felt heavy, and almost like velvety fabric or leather to the touch. I flipped it over and found a wax seal on the envelope flap, and as I slid my finger underneath to break the seal, I glanced up a Kaci. She was smiling at me, almost shyly, in the warm flicker of the candlelight. I could see deep love in her eyes. I folded back the envelop flap, took hold of the card that lay within, and pulled it out.
"Submit to Mistress Marne", read the simple script text on the front of the card. I looked up, still perplexed, then flipped the card over. "This card may be exchanged for one session of submission to the will and the talents of Mistress Marne, Dominatrix Extraordinaire."
"You're giving me a Dominatrix?" I repeated, still not sure quite what I was holding.
"Yes, my Sweet Love, you don't really need or want 'things' as presents, so we can think of this as the ultimate experience gift. I know you love for a part of our sex life to sometimes involve being tied, teased, tantalized and tortured. Last year for our anniversary, I did my best to deliver on that fantasy, and I actually think I did pretty well, if you recall."
I did in fact remember this well, as Kaci had given me a solid spanking, played around in my butt for the first (and only) time ever, and then she tied me down, blindfolded me and actually invited a friend in to help with the teasing and torturing. That was the really surprising part. I frequently look back at the photos we have saved of that experience.
"Well, my love, this year I was trying to figure out how I could top that, and remembered how as we've talked about that day, we've mused that perhaps I should send you to a dominatrix for a more expertly administered experience than the two of us could deliver. So, this year I decided to do it! I searched around on the web, found Mistress Marne not too far away, called her up for a chat, and I think she'll be perfect for what I have in mind! Happy Anniversary, Honey."
"Wow. I do remember you suggesting that, but you were laughing at the time. I thought it was a joke! I never even imagined you might really follow through. So.... when is this going to happen? And where?"
Well, it has to happen in what she calls her Den of Domination, because she has all her frames, implements and supplies over there. And it can happen anytime you like, but we do have a tentative appointment set up for next Saturday afternoon and evening.
"We? Are you going to be there too?"
"Oh, I wouldn't miss this for the world. Mistress Marne gave me the choice of being there or not, but I want to see what she does to you. Who knows, maybe I'll pick up a few pointers I can use on you another time. Besides, she's an hour away and you'll probably not be in any shape to drive home yourself. Don't worry, I'll just sit in a corner and watch, since I wouldn't want to distract you from the intensity of what I expect you'll experience."
"Did you talk at all with her about what she'll do?"
"A little. I described your love of being tied, tantalized and tortured, as well as what I did with you last year, and said I hoped she could focus her attentions along those lines, just more so. I also mentioned you really like being spanked, so you can probably expect some of that. I don't really want for her to make you crawl on the floor or lick her boots or pee on you or anything like that. It's not about dehumanizing you, it's about her doing an even better, hotter, more experienced job of what you tell me you like than what I did for you last year. But then, I did also tell her she should be imaginative and not to hold back......"
At this point the sommelier showed up with our bottle of celebratory chateauneuf de pape, a wine we reserve for special occasions, and just after that, our waiter delivered Kaci's beef tenderloin and my porterhouse. It seemed appropriate to set aside our conversation for awhile, though before we began our eating, I did raise my glass and offer a toast to "fifteen years of love, relationship growth and fun together, and to celebrating that love through creative gifts". In truth, I needed a bit of time to mentally assimilate just what Kaci was giving me. Since that session a year ago, she had 'evolved' quite a bit in her approach to what I call bringing friskiness into our marriage, but this, I had to admit, just might be a new extreme. We settled into some conversation about more mundane topics for awhile, until, with dark chocolate cake and brandies in front of us for desert, Kaci somewhat hesitatingly asked "So, what do you think about Mistress Marne?"
"Well, I have to admit I'm very curious, but also very nervous about what she would do once I get in there. It's one thing to want you to do this stuff to me, since I know you won't really go too far with it. But I'm sure she'll have lots of torture tools we haven't even dreamed of using in our play, and to her, I'll just be a naked male body she can play with at will, not a naked male body inhabited by someone she loves."
"Well, you don't have to do this, after all, I can just let her know we decided not to come. I haven't paid her yet. But she did say you'll have a safe word to use if it gets to be too much. And, she is a professional -- I checked a couple of references who spoke highly of her services -- and so she does understand how to walk the line between what's a lot and what's too much."
"OK, Honey, then I guess I'm in. After all, this is you taking your friskiness to another level, which I keep asking for, and you do have my written promise that I'll never complain or resist, since I trust you to stay within some boundaries. So.... It looks like I have some sensory experiences coming my way next Saturday. Thank you...... I think!"
"Oh, Goodie. Even though I won't actually be helping her, I think I'll want to dress appropriately for my role as observer. Perhaps I'll go shopping this week. And you can be sure I'll be wearing my anniversary ruby -- I love it, Dear Husband!" Kaci leaned towards me for a tender kiss, which evolved into a more passionate one that probably went on a little longer than it should have in a restaurant, before we slid out of the booth, headed for the car and home, and tumbled into bed for what turned into very long night of frisky anniversary sex! We had a lot to celebrate, after all.....
