“I have a surprise for you!”
I sent the message to Sophia while sitting in the cafe a short walk from the apartment. It was her birthday and I wanted to make it extra special. Besides the presents I had already bought her, and despite the plans I’d made for a special meal out together, I had now come across an opportunity far too good to pass up.
“Ooh, what is it?”
“You know that’s not how surprises work. I have some instructions for you, Doll:”
We had started using codewords a few years ago to signal that one of us wanted to initiate a “special” interaction; I would call her Doll, and she would call me Sir. We’d been doing it so often, for so long, that it now had an almost instant effect on both of us, triggering a change from our typical husband & wife relationship to one of sub & dom.
“Yes Sir, whatever you say Sir!”
“Careful! You don’t want to be a brat tonight.
“I want you stripped naked, on your knees, waiting for me in the living room. You will be harnessed, blindfolded, hands cuffed to your thighs with your hook in.
