Two weeks later.
Harriet had kept her work up admirably. Every time she could talk Pete around she dosed whatever he was eating or drinking to make sure that he enjoyed the experience more than any other, and kept him coming back to her for more as she did. Soon enough it became a regular part of their sex life.
Then it became the biggest part of their sex life.
Harriet didn't dislike Pete, he was nice enough, not particularly clever or engaging but he was good looking, confident and proud. Of course, the best times were the times when she tore that down, where in the face of her physical perfection (and a little pharmaceutical assistance) he collapsed and became a cuddly, hyper-attentive teddy bear. He wanted her affection, her validation. He wanted her to reassure him that he wasn't gay, or weak, or small.
"You know if you have real concerns about this stuff, I have a friend you could talk to."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean I have a friend who's super into pegging, and she's dealt with all kinds of guys who are into this kind of thing. I got advice for her before I started this stuff with guys, and she's talked to a few about any issues they have. She knows how to talk to you so you don't have that occasional feeling you might be, you know, gay."
"So she's some kind of therapist?" Harriet forced a laugh.
"No, she's not a therapist she's just a friend who's kind of an expert on this stuff. Look, we'll go for drinks together and if you think she's cool we can hang out more later, if not I won't bug you."
"All right."
The other girl was hot too. She was kinda gothic, and was nowhere near as perfect as Anna, but she had a decent body and a pretty face under all the tacky makeup. She smiled at him as they approached, raising her red cocktail to toast him. "Pleased to meet."
"Likewise, I guess."
"I got a room in the back where we can talk if you're down. They usually use it for karaoke, so no one needs to hear what we're talking about." He looked at her for a moment.
"This isn't therapy or anything right?"
"No therapy, I promise. Just three beautiful people in a room together talking about sex. Lots of guys would be thrilled for that you know." She winked and they headed back to the room.
"What's that?" He saw a projected screen across the room, a pattern played across it.
"Don't worry about that. It's just a default pattern. Something to keep the eyes busy during time between singing." She smiled and took a seat, gesturing for him to do the same. As he sat down and watched the screen she smiled. "So, you like to take it up the ass."
"Watch your mouth," he snarled.
"No shame in it. You have no idea how many tough guys I've had this conversation with. It's natural. There's a pleasure button up there for a reason, right? Men are meant to take it up there sometimes, most natural thing in the world."
"Bullshit."
"It's not. You're a tough guy right, you're big, strong, able to take hold of whoever you want and make them give you whatever you want. Isn't it nice to give up a little control now and again?" He was feeling a little tired, and she sounded very reasonable.
"Yeah. I guess it is."
"That's right. Now we're gonna do something called an internalising statement. It's meant to get past all the bullshit in your mind, all the lessons you were taught and focus on the truth. Are you comfortable with that?"
"What? Like some meditation shit?"
"Kinda, but less mystical bullshit and more documented psychology. So, what I'm going to ask you to do is stare at the pattern in the projector. Just pick one of the swirling patterns in front of you and stare into it." He did. "Now. I'm going to count down from five and as I do all of your preconceptions, all the things you've been taught, all the trauma is going to fade away. Okay, five, four, three, two, one."
He was feeling really sleepy now.
"Now, you're worried that liking it up the ass makes you gay. That it makes you less of a man, that it makes you a little bitch."
"Yeah."
"Well, the bad news is it does. The good news is no one has to know. You're not a real man but that's all right." He should be rising from his chair and showing this bitch what a real man was, but he was just too tired. "Taking it from Anna has been the best sex of your life, hasn't it? It's made you feel amazing every time. Brought you to heights of pleasure you've never experienced before."
