Last Saturday, I played in a golf tournament with a few of my buddies. As I was leaving, I kissed my wife of 20 years goodbye, and she sighed and said that she was going to miss spending the day with me. I felt a little guilty about being gone all day, so I asked her if she wanted me to stay home so we could do something together. She said that I was sweet, but that it wasn't a problem. She said that she had a bunch of things she wanted to get done, but that next Saturday we were going to spend all day together. I promised her that we could do anything she wanted next Saturday, and she grinned and said, "Anything? I'll have to think of something that you normally wouldn't do with me."
I kissed her again and headed for the door.
So today, I found myself on the way to a Renaissance type festival, which I was dreading. It's not that I dislike festivals, it's just that I get really bored. But I promised that I would do anything that she wanted, so I was determined to be a good sport about it. We arrived at the festival sight, which was a small local college, and I could tell that she was excited about the day. We parked in a field that held overflow parking and held hands as we walked the half mile to the entrance to the festival. It was already almost 90 degrees and I could tell the heat was going to be grueling.
After we entered the festival, we spent an hour and a half walking around and looking at the various booths that were set up, with people selling arts and crafts related to the times. She looked smoking hot in a thin sundress that came down to just above her knees. I could tell that she was wearing a thong, because I could not detect any panty lines (I always check). The temperature had climbed a good 5 degrees during our browsing, and we were both sweating.
We decided to go inside the theatre, where there was some sort of period performance being performed by the college's drama department. Upon entering the theatre, we walked around and looked at the different displays that were set up, showing different aspects of life during those times. The exhibit that interested me the most was the area displaying the different types of corporal punishment that were used during the times.
It was set up in a side hall, around the corner from the main lobby of the theatre. There were many different devices including a pillory, a rack, and gallows to name a few. The area was pretty crowded, so we could not get very close to any of the devices. I get frustrated by large crowds, so I put my hand on the small of her back and steered her back toward the lobby. Her back was very damp from sweating so much while walking around outside in the heat for so long.
We milled around for another 15 minutes or so, when they announced that the performance was about to begin. She asked me if I wanted to watch, and I guess she could tell from the look on my face, that it was not my idea of fun. She said that she wasn't that keen on watching either, so we just continued to wander around the lobby as everybody else made their way into the auditorium. As they closed the doors, we noticed that the lobby was virtually empty, so we started making our way back to the front door.
As we were walking across the lobby, I noticed that the small hallway where the public punishment devices were located looked empty. The lights had been dimmed down the hall, and there were velvet ropes stretched across the entrance. I grabbed her hand and dragged her toward the hall. She asked where we were going, but quickly realized my destination by the direction we were walking. As we slipped around the ropes, she asked if I thought that we were allowed to be in there while it was roped off.
I told her that nobody would know that we were there, and that I just wanted to see everything now that there weren't a thousand other people crowded in. We first saw the gallows and were amazed by how menacing it looked. We looked at several other devices and then turned a corner to see the rack. It was basically a long table with shackles on each end for the person's hands and feet. These shackles were attached to straps that were attached to pullies, which were then cranked to stretch the person's body. They would be stretched so much, that their joints would dislocate and eventually separate, which obviously seemed barbaric to us.
I started to walk to the next device, when I noticed that she was not following me. I turned and looked, and she was just staring at the rack with an odd look on her face. She was softly biting her bottom lip, which she often does when deep in thought, and I asked her what was up. She snapped out of her reverie, shook her head, and started following me to the last device. It was the pillory.
The pillory consisted of hinged wooden boards forming holes through which the head and hands were inserted. The boards were then locked together to secure the person. The pillories were set up in the marketplace or other prominent public places, and a placard was set below them, detailing the crime they were being punished for. The placard under this pillory said, "Adultery". The person would be bent over in a very uncomfortable position, which increased their embarrassment.
"Why don't you get in them so I can take a picture?" my wife said on a giggle.
I walked behind the pillory and put my head and hands through the holes, but when my wife tried to lower the upper board, my neck was too thick to close it all the way.
"It looks like this was for a woman or a smaller man...it looks like I get to take a picture of you," I said.
She lifted the board and I got out, and she took her place in the pillory. I was able to lower the board all the way down and throw the latch, and suddenly she was secured. She squirmed a little, shuffling her feet, trying to get more comfortable. I walked around to the front to get a picture, and she could barely lift her face to look at the camera. I took several pictures, making sure to get the "Adultery" placard in several of them.
I walked back to her and walked behind her. She obviously could not see me and asked where I was going. She told me to unlatch her so she could get out, as her legs were getting tired. But, an evil idea had come into my brain, and I knew that I could not let this opportunity pass. I got behind her and firmly smacked her on her firm ass.
She jumped and squealed a bit and then hissed, "What the hell was that?!"
"That was for your adulterous ways you little slut," I said, and I grabbed the hem of her dress and started pulling it up.
"Come on, let me out! Somebody is going to hear us and come back here," she whispered, but I was ignoring her.
I pulled her dress up over her hips and set it on her back, exposing her near naked ass. She was wearing a pale-yellow thong (I was right), and the cheeks of her ass were glistening with a light layer of sweat. I dropped to my knees, pushed my face right into her full cheeks, and inhaled audibly. I was flooded with the musky scent of her ass, and I felt my cock start to stiffen in my shorts. I heard her gasp, and I grabbed her hips and pulled her hard against my face.
"Ok, stop! And let me out of here!" she hissed, and I reluctantly pulled my face from her fragrant crevice.
