Chapter Thirty
James startled and Alec pointed toward the door. “Go on.” He chuckled as James took off at a jog. He followed easily, loving how James seemed to have forgotten his nudity in the joy of the games.
Almost immediately, the obstacles came into view. Couples from the township were scening all over the lawn and the walkways. It was enough to turn anyone’s head, let alone a horny sub. Alec went to the outside of the obstacles and kept an eye on James as he maneuvered his way through them. Given the fact that some of the couples were very close together, that was a challenge. James was doing all right until he came across Ryan’s parents. David was fucking Tayna’s mouth roughly. James tripped and stared at them, his eyes wide and his mouth half open. Drool dribbled out of the corner of his mouth.
Well, well, well. Looked like James looked forward to being face-fucked. Alec mentally added that to the list of things he would teach James to take.
Barely missing a beat, David paused, grabbed a leather paddle, and brought it down hard on James’s ass. Alec’s pup yiped, turned pink, and took off again. His expression was embarrassed, but there was no shame.
He made it through the next three couples only to come to another screeching halt. Alec couldn’t blame him. Watching Father Mark in full preacher mode was something to see. He was giving absolution to a female sub by fucking her in the ass while quoting from the Bible. It took only a couple seconds before Alec could see that made James very uncomfortable.
Alec stepped forward and put a hand in front of James’s eyes. “Move, pup.”
Mark watched James take off, his hips pausing. “He okay?”
Alec smacked him on the shoulder. “It’s all new to him. Yours is the first scene to shock him.”
With a grin, Mark pulled out and thrust back into his sub. “If it doesn’t shock them, I haven’t done my job well.”
Amused, he took off at a jog, following James through the rest of the couples to the doors of Dark and Dangerous. He was glad Kendrick had chosen to have the final fun at the dungeon he’d outfitted for men. Everything was in place and ready. Dr. Dallas Myles stood at the door, smirking as James jogged toward him.
“Well done, boy,” Dallas said and waved toward the door. “Get him some water while we wait for the others.”
Alec pulled out two bottles and took the caps off. James drank both of them down quickly. “How are you doing, pup?”
A soft laugh came from James’s lips. “This is the craziest thing I’ve ever experienced. I have no idea what to expect from this—” he waved around “—but I can’t wait to find out.”
Slowly the other subs made it in and Alec snorted when he saw Ryan escorted in wearing a blindfold and earplugs. “I thought Ryan was a Dom,” James said in confusion.
“He is. But the couple that was face-fucking are his parents. None of us would want to see our parents in flagrante delicto. So they covered him up so he wouldn’t have to see or hear it.”
James coughed a laugh in response.
“Well done,” Kendrick said, his eyes on Becca whose breasts were puffed up and her nipples hard buds. Alec grinned. He could almost see that Kendrick was imagining all the ways he would take her when this was over. Alec was doing the same with James.
“Now, for the third and final leg of this event, we’re going to play in Dark and Dangerous. Alec outfitted it so I’m sure it’s going to have all sorts of scary toys.” Kendrick grinned.
Dallas hit a button and the already low lights dimmed and began to flicker off faux stone walls. The entire ambiance was of an underground dungeon. Along with the lights came the distinct plink, plink, plink of water dripping. There were quite a few sounds that would unsettle and startle the subs. A few seconds later, a male cry filled the air.
James gave a shudder and Alec smirked. Perfect reaction.
“So what are we doing now?” Alice said, turning to Kendrick.
“Doms, choose your equipment. Subs, wait by the door. When we’re ready, we’ll call you over.”
James walked over and stood next to the other three subs. Alec was pleased that he no longer seemed aware of his nudity.
He strode over to a bench that from first look was deceptively simple. There was nothing simple about it and while he wouldn’t be able to use all of its facets today, it would give the Doms and subs who would come in to observe a peek at what it could do.
One glance told him that Alice had chosen a wall to shackle Slate to, Kendrick chose a fucking machine, and Craig, surprisingly, chose a table. That was very unlike him. He usually preferred to hang his subs via their wrists while he whipped them.
“Over here,” both Craig and Alice said sharply and Keb and Slate rushed to their respective Doms sides. Alec and Kendrick shouted out and Alec’s gaze was filled with his sweaty, excited sub as he darted in his direction. Behind him the couples who had been part of the obstacle course began to come in through the doors.
“Up.” Alec smacked the bench and James hopped up onto it. “Your arms go there. Your feet there. And your ass, perched right on the edge. Move.” James followed his direction. If he tensed up, all Alec had to do was look at him and James would relax.
Once his ass was on the edge, Alec used cuffs to secure his arms inside the long arm shields. He wrapped a strap across his pup’s abdomen to hold him in place and turned toward his feet. From the outer edge of the bench, he pulled out the footholds. The bench could double as an exam table. On the footholds, there were already cuffs in place and he buckled James’s ankles in securely.
Alec connected two chains from the ceiling to the cuffs on James’s wrists and then raised them until his arms were at a ninety degree angle from his body. The sheaths felt soft, but they were metal and would allow him no movement whatsoever.
After connecting two more chains to James’s ankle cuffs, he raised them out so that James’s legs were at a wide V, giving Alec full access to everywhere he wanted to touch.
“Look at me.” James turned toward him instantly. “On a scale of one to ten, where’s your physical discomfort?”
A thoughtful expression crossed James’s face. “A four.”
“All right. if it goes above a seven, holler our safe word. Otherwise, you’re not to say a word.” Choosing a safe word had been an interesting time. Alec didn’t care what it was as long as it wasn’t the kind of word one would yell out during a scene. His mathematician had chosen googol, which apparently was ten to the hundredth power. Since Alec didn’t see how it would ever be shouted in scene, he’d gone with it.
He reached behind him and pulled out a soft leather blindfold. James looked at it and took a deep breath. He’d asked several times about blindfolds but this would be the first time Alec had used a complete blindfold on him. Other times he’d wrapped opaque cloth around his eyes so he got the feel of it. He was glad they were getting to the point in their scenes were he didn’t have to be as careful, but he didn’t feel James was ready yet for any severe shocks. Once James nodded, he put the blindfold over his head. It was a real blinder with each eye cover covering over an inch outside of the eye. There would be no way James could see anything with it on.
Alec stepped back and surveyed his pup. Gorgeous, splayed out like a smorgasbord for any of Alec’s desires. His holes open, his cock half hard and his golf ball-sized balls showing just underneath it. Even his nipples were available if he wanted to play with them. Which he did. This was going to be different than any play James had had before. It was all about sensation with a bite.
Behind him was a tall table with the items he planned to use. A glove with sharp, sanitized needles on the end, a dozen small metal clips, a peeled piece of ginger, and a cup and suction gun for his cock. Time to show James another level of fun.
Chapter Thirty-One
It was exciting and scary. James was having such a great time. He’d never imagined anything like this. The play was fun and bizarre and he’d never expected to have so much fun competing with other subs. Hell.
He’d never expected to compete with anyone.
It was obvious the Doms were having as much fun as the subs.
Alec rubbed his hand lightly along James’s thigh, bringing his attention back to the moment. It was strange being blindfolded. The world was dark and yet there were sounds he hadn’t heard much of before and they sounded extremely loud now. Groans. Grunts. Cries. And that spine-tingling water dripping somewhere. Besides sounds that he was pretty sure were from speakers, he could also hear the other subs. Becca was letting out little squeaks and Keb was moaning.
God that was hot. Like aural erotica.
Something wet pressed against his anus and he wondered what it was. It was firm as it slid in. A dildo perhaps? No. A plug. It pressed in and stayed there. He expected it to vibrate, but no vibrations happened. Perhaps later.
“Breathe deeply,” Alec said in a firm voice. “In… Out… In… Out…” James followed his words and on the third “In…” Something pinched his balls and he breathed in a hiss. “Out…” Alec said and he forced his breath out. Shit. That stung. “Keep breathing, pup.”
That was difficult. Every time he breathed in, another pinch came and the outer edge of his balls stung. Twelve breaths later, it felt like his balls were on fire.
“Good pup.” The words made him sigh. It might not be comfortable but he trusted Alec to know what he was doing. Alec grasped his dick, his hand coated in lube and James instantly hardened. Which pulled at the discomfort he already felt. Something fit over his dick and again he was sure vibrations would start. They didn’t. Instead it was like someone put a vacuum hose on his cock and turned it on.
“Oh,” he gasped and Alec’s hand rubbed over his thigh. The suction felt good. But it also pulled at that sting in his balls.
Slate let out a long cry and the distinct sound of metal on metal filled the air. What was happening to him? Before he could allow himself to think on it, something sharp—several somethings sharp—trailed around his nipples. What was that? It stung and yet, did he like it? James wasn’t sure. It hurt and yet it felt good. Another gasp left his lips and those sharp, almost needle-like things trailed over his nipples. “Chief!” he called and yiped when Alec’s hand smacked his ass. Right. No words. He clenched in response to the smack and froze as he realized his ass was uncomfortably hot. Not his buttocks, but his ass. Whatever Alec had placed inside him was getting hot.
His mind raced over all the things Alec had explained to him and that he had researched and with a little bit of horror realized it must be ginger. James hadn’t believed ginger would get that hot. He’d been wrong.
He tried to wriggle a little, but the bindings made that impossible. As the feeling of being totally and utterly bound overcame him—the knowledge he had no control at all—a sort of strange peace settled over him. There was nothing he could do except safe word and he had promised he’d only ever do that if he got terrified or the pain was too much. The experience fit neither of those.
No. James would take this for his Chief. If it pleased Alec, James was quickly finding out that the rewards were well worth any discomfort he might feel.
The suction increased on his dick and he tried to arch his back. Unable to do so, a long, low moan left his lips.
“Mistress, please,” Slate begged. A harsh smack filled the air and a groan followed.
He could swear he felt that smack. His heart beat a little faster.
The needles traveled down his stomach and thighs and then came back up. Oh shit. Oh shit. Alec wasn’t going to drag those things between his legs. Was he?
He was. The needles scraped along the underside of James’s balls making him cry out. Warm air ghosted over his stinging balls and he moaned at the pleasure that caused. How could pain create such pleasure? Sure, Alec had done other things that were painful that had made him come like a rocket, but he still found it mind-boggling. Especially as those needles scratched over the top of his scrotum, making him whimper.
Having Alec not say a word had to be the hottest thing. Especially as all he could hear was the moans and gasps of the other subs. Knowing they could hear him as well just ramped up everything he felt.
The ginger in his ass pulled out. Then it pushed back in. Out. In. Out In. And the heat escalated with each movement.
There was sensation everywhere. Those needles were back on his nipples and the heat from the ginger made him want to rip the damned thing out of his ass. His cock was being sucked madly by some suction device and James wanted to come. The problem was that the discomfort was keeping him from being able to do so.
When the suction stopped, he gave a breath of relief as the pressure on his dick from not being able to come was becoming painful. “Ah!” he hollered as the needles slid up his dick. “Chief,” he begged and winced as his Dom’s hand smacked his ass hard. No words. No words. James whimpered even as his body tried to wriggle. There was no way to do so with how tightly he was bound, but the heat in his ass was at astronomical levels.
Those fucking needles were beginning to feel really, really good.
“Come when you need to,” Alec said in a firm voice.
As if he could. The pain was keeping that down. Only… It wasn’t. With the suction gone, his need to orgasm had dimmed somewhat but those needles over his dick had suddenly ratcheted everything back up and he wanted to come. No. He needed to come.
He needed something to send him over the top.
As if he’d asked, one of those sharp needles ghosted over the slit of his dick and that was it. A yell filled the air and he had the feeling it was from him. Cum surged from his dick in such intense thrums that it hurt and he cried out for several seconds before his dick finally began to go flaccid. He tried to get his breathing under control again.
James tried to think, but his mind wasn’t working right. Everything was too disconnected. He would have panicked but Alec’s hands rubbed up and down his thighs and knowing he was there helped him to relax and focus on breathing.
“Good pup,” Alec said in an approving tone. “You please me.”
Joy and pride filled James’s chest.
“Breathe, pup. It’s not over yet.”
Not over? Before James could take stock of that, blood began to rush back into the edges of his balls. Little stinging tingles bit at his skin. It was as if Alec had unclamped something. With each one, that horrible feeling of having an appendage fall asleep and then be awakened filled his entire groin. To his shock, he was hard again. What the fuck?
Each time blood rushed in, that tingle increased until he could barely breathe. His dick throbbed and he knew he was going to come. The last thing released and as the whoosh of that tingle flowed through him, Alec pulled the ginger out and thrust his cock inside.
“Ah!” James screamed as he came, Alec’s hard, rough thrusts sending him higher and higher. It was amazing and wonderful and… Oh.
He floated.
Chapter Thirty-Two
Alec sensed the moment James entered subspace. He watched as his pup’s mouth slackened and his entire body relaxed. Pleased, he fucked him hard until he came, grunting as he filled the condom. Someday soon, he was going to suggest they go bare. The thought of his cum filling James’s channel was enough to make him hard any time of the day.
James had done well. Everything he’d done today had been meant to push his pain receptors and James had not only taken it, he’d flown.
“Good, pup,” he murmured as he pulled out. After getting rid of the condom and putting his dick back, he quickly released James from his bindings. His pup was boneless and Alec had to place his arms and legs down gently so they wouldn’t fall. He grabbed a blanket and draped it over his sub. He would put him on the floor and quickly clean the equipment so he could give James all the aftercare he needed.
He lifted James up and spotted Ryan. He stood by with a bottle of cleaner and a cloth. “Thank you,” Alec mouthed and Ryan smiled. Alec headed toward a small room that jutted off the main area. It was open to the room,
but the sounds piped into it were softer. As he passed by Craig and Keb, he saw Mark standing by waiting with cleaner. One glance around told him that both Alice and Kendrick had the same help.
He reached the aftercare area and sat down in a large recliner. James curled up to him and he held him close. “You did very well,” he murmured into his ear. “I’m pleased with you, pup. Very pleased.”
A soft sigh left James’s lips and he cuddled a little closer before he drifted off.
Alec closed his eyes and reveled in the feel of James replete and soft in his arms. Perhaps it was time to make this official. He glanced down at James’s naked neck and felt a surge of protectiveness fill him. The Faire season was starting soon. There was no way James was going anywhere on the island without everyone knowing he was Alec’s. For the first time in Alec’s life, he would collar a sub.
He was thrilled about it.
Chapter Thirty-Three
Two weeks later Kendrick moored the boat and James was glad Alec was there to grasp his hand and pull him out. He leaned against his Chief and reveled in the strong arms holding him tight. The day itself hadn’t been bad. He and Kendrick had to go to court for the restraining order. If it weren’t for the hideous water, it would have been a decent morning. But without Alec to drive him crazy with his inventions, he hadn’t been able to fight off the nausea. He’d thrown up twice on the boat ride back.
Kendrick patted him on the back and spoke to Alec. “It’s done. Since the restraining order will have to be delivered in Connecticut, there are all sorts of things the courts have to do, but our side is done. James did really well. You would have been proud of him. But the sea kind of did him in.”
“Do you need him the rest of the day?” Alec asked as he guided James onto firm land. The moment nothing moved underneath him, James groaned in relief.
