The Anniversary Gift
Author's note:
If you do not enjoy a sexual fantasy that prominently features domination and humiliation, then this will not be for you. Otherwise, enjoy!
Ten years. We were fifteen when we met and became friends. That was twenty years ago. We were seventeen when we began dating and twenty five when we got married. And now, at thirty five, we're celebrating our aluminum anniversary, though the piece of jewelry I bought her for the occasion is a far cry from aluminum.
We're still just as good of friends today as we were in high school. Almost too good. We're more friends than we are husband and wife. It's most evident on the romance side of things, particularly when it comes to the bedroom. We just never connected that well physically.
Caryn is as pretty as she was the day we were married. Actually, she is beautiful. That is an objective observation that cannot be argued. She has straight jet black hair, green eyes and a fit figure. As for me, I am constantly being told that I haven't changed a bit either. I know I'm a good looking guy. Actually, the word most often used to describe me is "cute". I was cute in high school and I am apparently still cute today. But we just never seem to be on the same page with sex.
It doesn't help that I travel every other week for work. That has been the case for our whole marriage, but my job has gotten us our big beautiful house, our luxury cars and it provided Caryn with the capital she needed to start her own business, which is now thriving.
To prove the point that we act more like friends than lovers, we chose to celebrate our big night out at our favorite Bar-b-que spot rather than at a romantic restaurant. And that's when Caryn surprises me. As we're finishing our desserts, she says, "Oh, by the way, we're not going home tonight."
I raise an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"
"We're going to the Hotel Indigo. I reserved a room for us."
She has never said anything, but she must be disappointed with our almost nonexistent sex life. How could she not be? On the rare occasions that we give things a try, it never ends well. More often than not, I simply fizzle out before either of us gets anywhere. I end up apologizing a million times and she reassures me repeatedly that it's okay. How long has it been since our last attempt? A month? Two? Longer? Probably. Maybe she thinks a change of scenery will change the result. It won't. The setting isn't my problem.
I tell her, "I'm not exactly dressed up for a nice hotel." Neither of us are. Since we chose the BBQ joint, we're both in jeans and sneakers.
She giggles, "No problem. You don't need fancy clothes when your plans do not involve leaving the room."
Oh. I guess the plan is to work on our intimacy issues. This is about sex. Suddenly my heart rate increases and my palms get sweaty. "But I also didn't pack a bag. At the very least I need--"
She cuts me off, "James, I've got your overnight bag packed and in the trunk of the car. I just wanted to surprise you. Everything you need and more is in that bag."
I have no further protests. None that hold any water. I guess we're going to the hotel.

We're all checked in and the elevator has delivered us to the sixth floor. I feel underdressed walking the halls of this nice hotel in my Nike high-tops. When I open the door to our room, I'm surprised to see that it's a double - there are two queen sized beds. I suppose we'll have our separate sleep space after. After what? After disappointment? After deflation? After failure? I'm sure to disappoint her again.
She says, "We're going to try something new tonight."
I say nothing.
"A little role playing."
I do not reply.
"Do you trust me?"
I feel like I owe her an affirmative response, so I nod.
"Pick a bed and lie down. On your back."
"Should I change?"
"No."
"Undress?"
"No."
"Take off my shoes at least?" I hope she says yes to that one. I chose special socks for the occasion.
"No." She puts her hand on my forearm, "I'll take care of everything. Don't worry. Leave it to me."
I do what she says, but I'm still gonna worry. I choose a bed and lie down as Caryn picks up one of our duffle bags. She says, "Here's where the trust comes into play." She pulls a strip of nylon fabric out of the bag, wraps it around my right wrist and ties me to the bed post.
"Um..."
She shushes me, "Trust."
She moves down to the foot of the bed. One at a time she pushes my jeans a few inches up my calves and wraps more straps of fabric around my ankles above my high-top sneakers. She anchors each foot to bottom corner bedposts. Finally, she secures my left wrist like she did my right and I am a bound and captive prisoner. She leans in like she's about to kiss me but she veers away at the last second and kisses my cheek instead of my lips.
She whispers in my ear, "I know what you like."
I'm pretty sure she doesn't. I hope she doesn't. I've been hiding my likes from her for twenty years now.
I shift nervously, as much as my restraints allow.
She trails a fingertip lightly down my inner arm from my wrist to my armpit. I squirm and giggle. "Tonight, all of your dreams and fantasies will come true. You are going to have the time of your life tonight." She stands, "That little dick of yours will finally start working."
Did she say "little dick"? She's never commented on my size before. "What do you think I like?" I ask tentatively.
"Remember last week when you were out of town and you needed me to send you a document that was saved on your laptop?"
Oh no. "Yes..."
"Your private laptop that I'd never used before. You had to give me the passcode, remember?"
My eyes bulge and I nod.
"Well, I was curious. After we hung up, I took advantage of having your code and I poked around."
Shit. What exactly does "poked around" mean?
"I figured it was my only shot because you would surely change the password as soon as you got home."
That's exactly what I did. Apparently too late.
"You have some interesting sites bookmarked and your recent browser history was even more interesting. Oh, my dear husband. I confirmed some suspicions and learned some crazy interesting things about you."
I swallow. Everyone has their things, right? Their turn-ons. Fetishes. You can't judge a person for them. Can you? Caryn doesn't exactly think I have erectile dysfunction, she has seen me wake up with morning wood. I just struggle to make wood for her. It functions just fine in the right circumstances. It works great when I'm home alone and reading erotic stories online or watching my favorite porn videos. In particular I like videos that involve humiliation. Male to male sexual humiliation, mostly SPH. I also enjoy a variety of gay male stories and videos involving hand jobs, blowjobs and cum shots. And some M/M tickling, especially when the ticklish dude is helplessly bound and captive. Kind of like I am right now. What exactly does she have in mind here. Is it too late for me to change my mind about trusting her?
"It honestly explains a lot about our nonexistent sexual chemistry," she says.
Yep. She discovered my fetishes. But even though I like SPH videos, F/M SPH does nothing for me. It's got to be M/M SPH. That's what I like. A bigger stronger man ridiculing a weak pathetic loser. That gets me going. Compare, humiliate and degrade. If Caryn watched those videos, then she knows. She said as much. She said that tonight I'm gonna get what I like. What am I about to face?
There's a knock at our door. How can she answer it? Whoever it is will see me all tied up.
She answers. Two very large, very muscled, very tall and very masculine men enter our room. They both look down at helpless tied up me and they laugh. Caryn excuses herself to the bathroom, leaving me alone with the two beefy hunks. I'm already stiffening up. Just proximity to these big hulks has me aroused. Add in their judgy glances and chuckles plus the fact that I'm helplessly bound... Yeah, I'm responding.
Hunk #1 asks me, "How old are you?"
I don't answer. I have no power in this situation, but I give nothing away.
He steps over and sits next to me on the bed. His bicep must be not much smaller than my waist. He puts both hands on my ribs and wiggles his fingers. I burst out into laughter. He asks me again how old I am, but now I'm laughing too hard to answer. He stops the torture and I gasp for air.
