That brought laughter from all the women.
Donna spoke up "Jasmine is taken care of and Nancy doesn't wear a key unless it is to one of our men. That takes care of The Stem. How about we have a different shape for Clover A, B, and C as the next distinction?"
That got a sound approval from the women.
Julia, who worked with her jeweler husband, offered "What if we add a colored gem stone immediately above the key. I love my key being noticed so something flashy in a setting that hangs from the chain and the key hangs just below. Maybe a ruby, a sapphire, an emerald, and a pearl, a different one for each house. There are also other stones of very similar color to ruby, sapphire and emerald that are less expensive that would work too. We would need to establish a standard size and setting I think. Not too small and not so big it overshadows the key."
That got a bunch of oohs and ahhs from the other women.
Kathy spoke up "I think that was a vote in favor, anyone opposed?"
Jasmine spoke up "I'm not opposed but now I'm jealous wearing my plain oversized key."
Kris spoke up "There is nothing plain about you Jas, you wear your oversized key with any bauble you want hanging between those beautiful oversized tits and nobody's going to miss it. You are an Amazon queen."
There was full agreement on that point and Jasmine looked very pleased. She snickered and said "Well, I guess my size qualifies me as an Amazon and I sure do enjoy queening" which brought peals of laughter.
Kathy asked Julia if she would take the lead on developing the new shapes, gems and fittings.
Julia agreed noting "I'll be doing the key work myself, no chance my husband is getting his hands on any keys. He can do the gems and fittings. I will have proposed designs out via email in a few days."
Donna asked "what will we owe you Julia, can you estimate?"
"The only cost will be for the jewels and they will be at wholesale, so I don't think more than a couple of thousand for something spectacular. Again, other gems of similar color are much less. Pearls of course are much less also. The other materials are incidental and labor is free. It's my contribution to my CLFC sisters. That goes for you too Jas, let me know if you want a bauble mounted. We can get together if you want something different."
"Thanks Julia, that's wonderful."
Kathy asked Carol, a lawyer and head of the CLFC bylaws committee, to draft a change for member approval to formalize the key sharing agreement. Approval to be via email if accepted and the men provided printed notification by each keyholder.
That concluded the meeting and the women packed up and headed home.
Before leaving Kris asked if Kathy wanted help cleaning up.
Kathy said "Thanks but no, Paul will do that after a bit. First I need to have a cross word with him, would you like to see? I sure it will increase his humiliation which is always a good thing. Come along, it will only take a few minutes and you will see something new I think. Out to the guest house we go."
Kris went with Kathy and was stunned by what she saw when Kathy opened the guest house door. There was lots of workout equipment spaced around and on one wall Paul stood naked, secured to the Saint Andrews cross, sans cage with a ball gag in his mouth and painful looking clamps on his nipples.
There was a variety of BDSM implements hanging on the adjacent wall including whips, floggers, gags, hoods, canes, paddles, strap ons and other items Kris couldn't identify.
"Paul has been spending our meeting evenings like this for the last few, ever since I caught him trying to listen in. Isn't that right Paul?"
"Paul nodded drooling dripping from his mouth."
"I had trusted him and he broke that trust. I am still angry with him about it and probably always will be. Some betrayals are hard to get over even for a trained psychologist. To stay on an even keel about it, I limit my retribution sessions to the evenings after our meetings. It seems fitting, to me at least. I would remove the gag so he could greet you properly except he tends to make too much noise when I apply the lash, even given the soundproofing. This would be a good opportunity for you to practice with the flogger. Would like to do that?"
Kris nodded that she would.
"Wonderful, let's start on his cock and balls. First the caress, then a couple of attention getters, then some sharp rebukes. Fifteen or twenty should be good practice. That's it, snap that wrist to get tip speed. When you are done I will put him to the hot iron for quite a while. He has been difficult and deserves an attitude adjustment. You might want to leave before then. I feel like getting a work out and he tends to complain."
After coaching from Kathy, Kris was improving quickly. She took her leave and after closing the guesthouse door and heading to her Wrangler she thought, he is noisy, I can hear his screams even through the gag and soundproofing. It was a rough evening for Paul.
A few days later the proposed bylaw change and key designs were out on email. The bylaw change was approved by the following day.
Julia proposed that the keys mimic something she had seen on the internet. She told them to go to the Chastity- Shop.com and scroll page down to the photo of the woman in bra and bowtie. She is wearing a key that has a clover leaf pattern at the top that I think is perfect for Clover Lane. I can keep the outer three lobe pattern and incorporate an A, B, C, or S into the center. Then, instead of hanging off the top lobe, have a chain attachment off each side lobe. The chains would connect together at the necklace chain with a gem hanging above the key from the connection point. I propose a marquise shaped gem in a sparse fitting with a top bail. For the pearls I propose two suspended side by side to mimic a man's balls.
The overwhelming response from the women was, "I love it," including from Jasmine who had hers scaled up and was going to be spectacular.
All that remained to be decided was who got what. The women of each cul-de-sac met and put in secret requests. The few duplicates were resolved by a roll of the dice. Selections were provided to Julia along with a spare key and the new keys and associated pendants were distributed the following week.
