I stuttered something, it could have been an apology. I had been pretty much caught unawares, as I was tarred and feathered, wrapped up in plastic silage wrap lying before the wife of the man who had willingly done this to me. What the hell she was doing there and, more importantly, what was about to happen to me were the thoughts running through my head.
"Now, missy. I think this is pretty clear. You weren't expecting me back so soon. Well, if my horse hadn't gone lame maybe you would have had a whole weekend to enjoy... This! But, there you are. We are now both at a loose end. So I have a proposition for you. Either, you be a big girl and let me let out my frustrations. Or, I cut you free and he gets to be punished alone. I am more than happy for you to go, I can't say I won't come after you in other ways, but it is your choice."
What choice was this? I let her 'let out her frustrations' - what the hell did that even mean? Or I leave Rich and run away. That was deeply tempting and I would have taken that choice in a moment if she hadn't continued speaking.
"You see, I am sure my pathetic husband has tried to get you all messy and dominate you. But, he couldn't dominate a conversation in his own head. I am offering you an opportunity to see how it should be done..."
Oh, God... My debauched side just clicked. She was a beautiful, slim yet muscled blond with one of those bodies who would turn heads, both male and female. I wasn't usually into ladies, but I was very willing to make an exception for this goddess clad in breeches and polished riding boots. I stuttered yes...
"Good girl... Lucy?"
Lucy the groom was frighteningly efficient. She lifted me up from my prone position and cut away the wrappings. It was a matter of minutes before I'd been stood up and walked to the stables wash bay, normally a place where horses would be tied between two firm posts, I found myself with my wrists clipped at head height. She glared at me, before turning on the hose and starting to spray me with icy water. I yelped which caused the evilest smile to cross her face. The jet was cruelly directed towards my crotch, unable to move my hands I swore and cursed this evil groom. Hell, this girl was loving this.
She grabbed a container, pouring the liquid over my body and rubbing it in briskly. There was no care and attention, this was exactly what she would have done with one of the horses. I realised that this was horse shampoo and soon my body was covered in bubbles, the feathers eventually washing away. I was, soon enough, naked, pink from the cold and shivering despite the heat of the day.
"Good girl Lucinda." She purred at her groom as she inspected me. "She's a bit hairy..."
Oh shit... I guessed what that would mean, and as Lucy stepped out with clippers I understood completely. She pulled in the heavy unit which buzzed as it approached my head. I gasped as my hair started to fall onto my shoulders.
"Oh do stop complaining... It will grow back."
Satisfied Lucy donned rubber gloves and took out a pot which I was sure was not normally in the tack room. She smeared my head with the stinking cream before spreading it over my private parts. I hopped and leapt as it burned. It was soon washed away. I stood before them bald.
"Well, when I said it would grow back... " The two women gave me an evil laugh. "Now, what do we do with you? You like a mess do you? Did he show you this? No? Well, I'm guessing he was going to."
It was a strange harness with a funnel and a pipe. I was confused until she strapped it to my head. The pipe was roughly fastened between my teeth. I could no longer speak and I realised that whatever entered the funnel would go directly into my mouth. I shook my head, there was another jug of brown sauce. The heavy liquid was nasty as it spread over my now bald head, dripping down my naked body. But the flood into the funnel made me gag. The rich, vinegary sauce flowed into my mouth and down my throat. She poured slowly, ensuring I didn't choke, but it just prolonged the disgusting taste.
The two women stepped back, nodding. I grunted in shock as I saw a catering sized bucket of mustard. I shook my head, but Lucy just held me firm. Again, half over my head and the rest flowed into me. The humiliation was absolute. She grabbed a jug of red liquid, this was poured directly into the gag. For a moment I didn't know what it was and then the burning began. I writhed as chilli sauce flooded my mouth, I was stamping my feet. I caught a glance of a worried looking Lucy and she grabbed a bottle of milk and quickly poured it into the funnel. It elicited a dirty stare from her, but I thanked her as the milk put out the flames in my throat.
The funnel was removed, leaving a ring gag in my mouth, so speech was impossible. I tried to make eye contact with Lucy to at least try to thank her for her kindness. She was already preparing the next torture, wheeling a barrow towards me. I looked and saw it was filled with the stinking mud from the pond. Well, I thought, I've been here before.
"Lucy... Cover her..."
