It ALL started in 1982 - years ago ... Back before the Internet, you almost HAD to go to an "adult-bookstore" for anything sexually "interesting" outside the home!
I'd befriended the Clerk/Manager (George) of one of the two Adult-Outlets in my area. (Yeah, SOME towns don't have ONE – I have TWO, and they're directly across from each other, and about a mile from my house!)
As I work nights, I'd spend the better part of the "waking day" at his store, just batting-the-breeze with him and his girlfriend, Edie.
Many times, Edie would come up and work at the store while George would grab a nap in the back-store room. We found out a lot about each other's "preferences" (and kinks), in the first several months.
To give you an idea of what they look like, I'll introduce you to the Family:
George is 5'6", a skinny 160 Lbs., tattooed on both arms, his back and chest! I'd go so far as to call him a "Butch Biker-wanna-be"!
Edie is 5'9", about 135 Lbs, with shoulder length chestnut brown hair, wire-rim glasses. She's almost waif-like in appearance. (If she stood in a refrigerator, she'd have a chest!) A REAL "Biker-Babe", but without the figure!
I find it hard to believe she was strong enough to have a child, but she did, 18 years ago! Her daughter, Brooke, stands about 5'6", brown hair with blond highlights, cut to just under her shoulders. The first time I saw her, I KNEW there was a God, because the chest he didn't give to her Mother, he made up for on this angel - had to be a 36 D-Cup, with a 22 to 24 waist, and all that, sitting on a beautiful pair of legs with a pair shaped rump!
On one visit to the store, George mentioned he & Edie were into B&D. Not the "heavy" stuff, just the occasional "tie her up, blindfold her and either tickle or touch her, while talking to her in the 3rd party, until she came - then she'd be his sexual servant the rest of the night" stuff. They couldn't get as deep into it as he'd have liked to, Edie's 18 year old daughter was still living at home and the "kid" would come & go at all hours, so they had to take reasonable pre-cautions.
I'd told him about a couple of my brief episodes with B&D while in service. Like George, I never really found it my preference, but it made an "interesting diversion"! One of the other Non-COM's and his wife where also in the "lifestyle" and were both submissive, while I would play their Dominant!
Then the store began to get "busy" for the day, and I'd leave to get my days rest, telling them, I'd see them later!

(DAY ONE - Sunday; "OK, there's the deal ...")
This ONE Sunday morning, as I was leaving, George mentioned they wanted to build a 'secret playroom' in the attic of their home. Did I know anyone "good" with hammer & nail?
"OK, there's the deal ...Discretion is utmost, because of Brooke, the daughter." he'd said. "And the big problem is I don't have the time, working the hours I do here and I don't have the wood-working ability. – Hell, I wouldn't even know which end of the nail to hit!"
So I 'climbed' out on the limb, "With THAT kind of restriction, you'd HAVE to be careful who you let know about it - it'd HAVE to be someone you trust or is into the lifestyle. --- I mean, I could do it, probably have to bring in ONE other guy to help though! -- And, what kind of 'toys' do you have in mind George?" I asked.
"GREAT! I have NO problem with that. - Nothing special – just a lockable closet in one area for the toys, chains and trinkets we have. And it's GOT to LOCK! – I don't want Brooke accidentally finding them and asking a lot of – shall we say – embarrassing questions?"
"OK, anything else you have in mind?" I asked.
