It was shortly after noon on a Saturday in early June when our contractor finally finished work on the long-awaited, (very private) deck off our master bedroom. The weather was unseasonably warm, and I was more than looking forward to starting work on my no-tan-lines tan. Little did I know that Aaron had other plans...

Aaron and I stood in the driveway and watched as Norm and his two assistants loaded the last of their tools into the pickup, and piled in.
"I'll have my daughter send you the bill first of the week." Norm said.
"Sounds good to me." Aaron said.
The motor started, and Norm pulled away from the curb.
"If anybody wants me," I said, "I'll be enjoying my new deck!"
"Not so fast." Aaron said, "While you were out running errands, Lori delivered an express-mail envelope for you. I think you better open it first."
The wicked smile on Aaron's face told me that the contents of that mysterious envelope were probably going to postpone the start of my tanning season.
"Okay. Where did she leave it?" I said with a wink.
"It's on the kitchen island."
I followed Aaron into the house. When we reached the kitchen, he picked up the envelope and handed it to me. "I didn't realize all the fringe benefits of having a friend working for the U.S. mail: no postage."
"Imagine that. Open it."
I pulled the tab and opened the envelope. Peered inside. I turned the envelope on edge and dumped out the white poker chip. That same wicked smile. My thoughts darted back to that cold, snowy Saturday night last January. Out of boredom, I had accepted my darling's challenge to a game of ultimate strip poker. I had forgotten how good Aaron was. How bad I was. I'm still not sure what possessed me to agree to be his genie and grant him three wishes in exchange for one last chance at victory. I'd lost. Or had I won? So far I had only granted one wish: an evening with a $2,000.00 an hour call-girl (me). I fell into role.
"What is your wish of this humble genie?" I said with a giggle.
"To shave your pussy." Aaron said, "There's a sheet with instructions. Take it out. Read."
I pulled out the neatly typed page, and began to read: "Genie, your tasks of preparation are simple. First, go to the kitchen and retrieve the silver tray. From there, go to the bedroom, open the bottom drawer of your dresser, take out the satin bag containing the ropes-of-bondage and place the bag on the tray. From there, go into the bathroom and get a towel, washcloth, shave cream, my razor, a new blade, and scissors. Place these items on the tray as well, and take it out to the deck. Return to the bathroom, fill the basin with hot water, take it onto the deck, remove all of your clothing, and sit upon the pillow set in the corner."
"Your wish is my command..."
* * * * * * * * *
It only took me about fifteen minutes to gather all the items on the list and get ready for the fun to cum.
"Beautiful genie," Aaron said, "you have done well. Now for the fun part. If you will place yourself upon the chaise, we can get started."
I stood, then lay down on the lounge chair. Aaron tugged opened the drawstring on the velvet bag and took out three lengths of the soft-cotton rope. With the first, he tied my wrists together, then looped the free end around the brace that supported the top of the backrest, and drew my arms upward, above my head.
With that task complete, Aaron picked up my right foot and wrapped one end of the second rope four times around my ankle, finishing with a square knot.
A smile; and a wink.
He set my foot gently on the deck next to the bottom leg of the chaise and tied it there. He repeated the process on my left. I looked up at the bright blue sky dotted with cottony white clouds. The sun felt good against my bare flesh. The warm breeze teased my exposed pussy.
"I'll be back in a moment." Aaron said.
I closed my eyes and settled back. My mind began to wander. The sounds of children laughing snapped me back to reality. Cautiously; almost fearfully, I looked around. The wide boards that closed in my treetop sanctuary rose a little less than four feet above the deck. The space between them was small; about a half inch. If I focused, I could see Jannelle's three kids playing on their swing-set. 'Can they see me?' I wondered.
Her youngest jumped from his swing and pointed in my direction. "Look!" he yelled.
I froze.
"There's a hawk!"
I looked up, and watched the red-tail soar overhead. Jake's twin sisters stopped chasing one another to watch as well. For what seemed an eternity, the hawk made circles in the sky. Eventually, he drifted off. The kids continued to stare in my direction. "I wonder why Aaron and Chris built their deck like that." Jake said, "With those fat boards, they can't see anything!"
