Interlude
"Well, Marilouise," I thought, smiling, "your boobs droop but they're still pretty good and," and I shivered as I let the thought progress, "that tattoo Valerie drew would really be beautiful."
My conversation with myself went like that as I stood, transfixed, my tit out, the picture covering it, and a sudden rush in my belly building.
I thought of the things he had said and I felt, I truly FELT, the way my body responded, the way my sex responded, the sudden desire between my legs, something I hadn't felt in months, maybe years.
And I realized, suddenly, with a frightening clarity, that I wanted it. I wanted it ALL. I wanted all of those things he said he would do. I WANTED the pain and the humiliation.
This fucking disease might be taking me, and I couldn't do anything about that. But I damn sure COULD fight.
And surrender, a complete surrender, giving myself to my son as his toy, his plaything, yes, his goddam slave, was the one way I could fight.
I giggled and wiped my lip where I had started drooling a little in my new decision and the excitement it brought.
I turned and kissed him, a sloppy kiss but it felt right somehow, and said, "Unless you want to watch your mother pee and poop, go on down and start some coffee."
I gave him a little push and turned to sit and deep in my mind I kind of hoped he'd stay and watch. Breaking the taboo of a lifetime, dating back to when your mother says "ewwwww" as she changes your diaper, would be fun.
But he didn't.
He left and I took care of business.
Interlude Finis
She giggled, reached over, picked up my cellphone, never more than an arm's reach from me, and handed it to me.
"Call her," she said, "Please."
"You're sure?" I asked.
"God yes," she said, "Those tattoos would make even my floppers pretty."
I laughed and said, "You have great tits."
"If you like them floppy," she said, lifting the T-shirt and then lifting her boobs and letting them fall.
Okay, they
did
flop.
"Are you sure?" I asked again.
"Please," she said, batting her eyes, making me laugh.
I made the call.
"Which one did you like?" Valerie asked after I identified myself.
"Care to guess?" I asked.
"You want the whole life cycle, don't you?" she said.
"Yep," I said.
She giggled and said, "Well, she has the boobs for it."
"Hang on," she said.
"Okay," she said, "That is extensive work in a very sensitive area so I'm going to schedule you in four settings, is that okay?"
"You're the expert," I said.
"Okay," she said, "How are your Wednesdays?"
I laughed and said, "You give me the dates and times and we'll be there."
So she rattled off four dates, starting the following Wednesday, all at 9:30 a.m.
Mom held out her hand. She was smiling and it was tremor-free.
"I look forward to going to work for the first time in years," she said. Then she kissed me before sipping her coffee, leaning back with a contented sigh, and watching the news on TV.
"I can't remember," she said, her eyes on the TV, not meeting mine, "the last time I could drink coffee with this hand and not spill any. Thank you."
"You're quite welcome," I said, smiling, and getting up.
I went upstairs, brushed my teeth, and put on jeans and a T-shirt, this one advertising
Margaritaville
, grabbed my little Google Chromebook, and headed downstairs.
Mom was still on the couch, looking at the hand that held the coffee cup, her eyes dreamy and unfocused.
I kissed her quickly, danced away before she could grab me, and said, "Gotta go. Test today in Earth Science and that isn't my best class."
"Yeah," she said, "I should make an appearance at the nursing home too."
I had two classes, a history class, Western Civilization 101, and that damn Earth Science class. Western Civ was interesting as we worked through the Fertile Crescent and then into Egypt, Greece, and, of course, Rome.
For some reason, Earth Science was kicking my ass though. It was the way it jumped around. One week we'd talk about Geology and the discussion of sedimentary, igneous, or basaltic rocks drove me silly. How the fuck do you keep that shit straight. Then there'd be a week of meteorology and cirrus or cumulus or nimbus clouds. A week on hydrodynamics and how hydraulic pumps work. A week on electromagnetism and ohms, volts and amps and God knows what. But I figured I was ready. This was hydrology and the water cycle week, water to vapor to clouds to rain to water, and I was confident I understood that.
During a break in the Student Union, Beth, one of the girls in my Western Civ class, sat down with me and flirted shamelessly.
The thing is, last week I would have been all over her. She was blonde and cute and wonderfully plump and bouncy. But today I steered the conversation back to Rome and the declining years.
She seemed disappointed and, left. I watched her big ass leave with just a twinge of regret, but not too much.
I got through class and the test (I later found out I did get an "A") and headed home.
Mom wasn't there so I went into the basement and started planning her, well, our future.
The monster inside me danced a jig as I looked at the ceiling of the basement, mentally working out where joists were and where I could put pulleys to lift and stretch and torment. I let it run, my dick getting hard, as I sketched in my mind where I could hook up a small electric winch and how the cables would run to do what I had in mind.
"
You're a bit over the top now, you know?"
I thought, tracing possible lines of force and imagining how they would work on her body.
I smiled and could almost hear her muffled scream, barely audible around the tennis ball I would stuff into her mouth, as I suspended her by her tits or stretched her legs into full splits as I worked the winch attached to the cuffs on her ankles.
"You're going to torture her?"
I asked myself, standing in the basement, imagining it as a damp dungeon, and surprising myself to hear that I had said that aloud.
"Yes," I said, the single word echoing in the big open room making it real somehow.
I looked up. The basement was unfinished, and floor joists showed clearly. I imagined stuffing the areas between joists with insulation, soundproofing the room.
"You want to hear her scream, don't you?" I asked myself, comfortable with saying it aloud now.
"Yes," I said, smiling, doing a slow turn, picturing the various devices in my mind, "I want to hear her scream until her voice is stripped away."
The monster in my head capered his delight.
I took a deep breath, pushed the monster down, and went back upstairs to make a sandwich and study. The sandwich was good, Mom always keeps a good selection of lunch meats. The study was bad. I couldn't concentrate so told Google to go "incognito" and started searching for "modern dungeon equipment."
And Jesus Christ, there was a whole industry devoted to such stuff.
As I learned the language, the nomenclature, and refined my search I was fascinated. You could get practically anything you could imagine, but you had to be prepared to pay the big bucks for it.
For example, I found a reference to the
Spanish Donkey
. If you don't know what that is, well, picture an oversized sawhorse standing about four feet high. The central bar connecting the two pairs of legs has been shaped into a triangle with a sharp point at the top. The victim, the
torturee
?, is lowered onto it and weights are attached to her, or his I suppose, ankles.
Looking at the damn thing on the computer screen made me sort of squirm, and I did a Google search for "BDSM Spanish Donkey for sale." Sure enough, you could get one, but prices started at $495. Being reasonably handy, I gave it a little thought, got on the Lowe's website, and realized I could make one, and make it better at that, for under a hundred bucks.
I looked at things I hadn't known existed. Hell, things I hadn't imagined.
And my dick stayed hard.
For some reason, and I suspect it was just that monster in my head whispering his suggestions, it was the items devoted to the face that had me so hard I had to masturbate before I could concentrate. I sat, staring, at the image of a pretty woman's face with mascara streaks running down her cheeks and a pair of nose hooks stretching the
nares
, the nostrils up. The tears running down her cheeks made it clear it hurt.
I stared, a paper towel in one hand and my erection in the other as I jacked off, catching my ejaculate in the towel and then tossing it into the trash.
Relieved, and able to concentrate again, I continued my research. I wound up Googling "face porn" and spent the next half hour watching as women had nose hooks stretch their
nares
, ball gags stretch their jaws, leather masks cover their faces, bridles and bits give handlers control, and damn near had to jack off again when a video of a woman about Mom's age had a round device forced into her mouth and within two minutes drool was running down her chin and soaking the T-shirt she wore.
The thinking part of me pushed the monster down.
Yeah, I know, I was rationalizing like crazy. But I had, I think, the legitimate thought that something like the "Scold's Cap" I saw, a ring that would hold a woman's (or a man's I suppose and when I had that thought I realized I would try it) mouth open with a small disc attached that would hold her (or his) tongue pressed down to the bottom of her (or his) mouth. The video marketing it showed a pretty woman with her jaws forced wide, the strap tightened behind her head, and she was drooling in less than a minute.
I bought it. Well, I ordered it, using Mom's credit card. It seemed overpriced at $39.95, but, rationalizing like crazy again, I persuaded myself that such a slow, lingering, humiliation might accomplish the same therapy as the strap or whip.
"Yeah, yeah," I said aloud to myself, "maybe. But mostly you want to see her drooling onto her shirt. Be honest."
That was my only direct purchase that day, but I also started a list of stuff, a "Bill of Materials" for those of you who understand how to build things, I would need to convert the basement into the dungeon I now knew was in our future.
I had one more bit of research before I could study. I started with "BDSM clubs in," well, never mind what city. I was surprised to find a dozen listed. But then I tried "BDSM theme restaurants." There were only two. Both did have web pages. The one, called
Dungeon Planet
looked like, well, a dungeon. I didn't really think we were ready for that. The second, though, called
