S&M Ball

by

The weeks preceding the Houston PEP S&M Ball were not the easiest. Extensive oral surgery had left me in a lot of pain (and not the good kind), highly medicated, and quite frankly, bitchy. As a result i had fallen behind at work, my kids were running amuck and my service to Sir had become less than pleasing. After a bit of reality therapy, during which Sir indicated His expectations, His belief in my ability to turn things around, and His desire that Wwe all have an opportunity to attend the Ball, i decided that i would regain control of myself. i returned to my dentist, weaned myself off the painkillers, and i stopped feeling sorry for myself.
   Months ago Sir suggested that i join the S&M Ball volunteer committee. i dragged my feet and came up with a dozen excuses as to why i couldn’t join. Eventually i sent an email to the committee and waited for a response. When one did not come, i did not push. Finally i had to admit that i was terrified to go out into the community again. For several years i had been very visible in the Austin scene and around the state as part of a couple. My identity had always been that of “sugar” of “Leo and sugar.” i honestly did not know if i would be received coolly because i now have a new name, and a new leather family. With Sir’s support i was able to push through my fear and tried again to contact the committee. Travis Sir assisted and suggested i contact Carole, the HPEP Chairperson directly. i received a genuinely warm response from Carole letting me know that my services were indeed needed and desired. i attended the volunteer’s meeting at Tortuga’s and was happy to see many familiar and friendly faces. i decided to sign up for the 7 p.m. registration table shift on Friday night.
Now i was getting excited and i got permission to go shopping. i tend to be the clothes whore and shopaholic of the family but i wanted some company. epiphany was visiting, but she was not in the mood to shop. sunshine was taking a nap and also passed. i was on my own. i went to the Buffalo Exchange and to the Erotic Cabaret, both on Westheimer. Of course i had no idea what i was looking for. i just knew i wanted to be sexy and i wanted to make Sir proud. i returned home with a pout and empty hands. Nothing on the dozens of racks seemed right. The next day Sir informed me that sunshine and i would be going out shopping again, this time to Dare Ware.
   i crossed my fingers on the way, praying that i would find something within my budget. When we arrived, sunshine pointed out a hot pink PVC outfit in the window. i shook my head, no that wasn’t it. We entered the store and i immediately went for the PVC, and then the corsets. Neither rack was within budget. i spotted the sales rack and decided to try my luck there. Meanwhile, sunshine found a variation of a Japanese Geisha outfit in rich fuchsias she thought i’d like. i found a corselet on the sales rack, and a sheer black mini. i heard sunshine squeal and turned to find her waving a Little Red Riding Hood dress, in red PVC of course. “That is you!” i squealed back. We both went into the dressing room to try on our outfits. i couldn’t get the little Japanese number over my hips, i decided i hated the corselet, and growled a bit at the skirt. i refused to cry as i went back out on the floor. As I was thumbing through several stripper type evening gowns, i spotted a rack of floor length PVC skirts i must have missed. My eyes rested upon a red mermaid style PVC skirt with a small train in back. i picked it up and confirmed that it was my size. i tried it on and knew without a doubt this was the one. i found a matching red and black PVC halter top, shoes, and PVC evening gloves. Sunshine bought the little red riding hood dress, some funky patent leather boots, and i bought everything! You can probably guess whether i stayed under budget.
The week actually passed rather rapidly. portia arrived on Wednesday. It is always a joy to have her home. portia has this infectious laugh that can be heard throughout the house. she and i tend to work…and play well together. Sir’s instructions were that all we girls pamper ourselves in preparation for the weekend. On Thursday i got a manicure and pedicure. On Friday i had a hair appointment. i decided to go with a dramatic change, and got a weave put in that extended my shoulder length hair to the small of my back. My stylist admitted thinking that i were nuts when i told her to go buy the longest hair she could find. But after the do was done, she conceded that my new mane suited me. i enjoyed being able to whip my hair around like sunshine does with her own beautiful long red tresses. i don’t think i ever heard so many “oh my Gods” as when i walked into the house.
   Because i was volunteering, i had to leave earlier than everyone else. which meant less time for me to drop the kids off at the sitter, treat Sir’s leathers, and get myself dressed. i was also given the delightful task of placing portia in a bondage bra. Now although i adore bondage, i am most used to being the subject and not the rope mistress. Luckily, portia and i had practiced a few times earlier that afternoon. Believe me, we did nothing to dispel the myth that subs cannot Top. Not only did we manage to cut Sir’s rope too short…a few times…we succeeded in tying one breast so lopsided that portia’s left nipple was almost totally encased in the rope. These shenanigans were topped only when the rope got caught in portia’s braces. Hey! Haven’t you heard of tooth bondage?? Anyhow this was the real deal, and after only two tries, portia’s beautiful breasts were being supported by a near perfect bondage bra. i adore bondage for both its beauty and its truth. When i am bound there is no escape, there is nothing but what is. i sighed after Sir gave his seal of approval and then made the dash to dress myself and get down to the International Ballroom.
   When i arrived at the venue, i realized just how large was the space. There weren’t many cars in the parking lot yet. i went inside to find my station. I saw a table with envelopes set on them and a woman came over and asked if I were here to work the table. i nodded and Patrick, my shift buddy, came over to say he was also working. The woman told us that one of the vendor’s had not arrived and gave me their packet. After sitting at the wrong table for about ten minutes..LOL… Patrick i realized we needed to be on the other side of the facility. We were at the vendor’s registration table, and we needed to be at the attendee’s table. As we walked over, i realized that the space was as gargantuan on the inside as it appeared from the parking lot. The Ballroom was huge and Ball staff was still setting up the equipment. We took our seats and Troy explained our job including giving pre-registered folks a refund because the cost of the event had decreased. It was an honor to be trusted with such an important position. After a while a steady stream of people began arriving at our table. Most were just in from out of town, and had not yet changed into kinky attire. Dozens of people from across the state and beyond were shocked when they received cash along with their registration packet. i think they were impressed by HPEP’s integrity. After an hour or so i swiped Oour packet so i would be ready when Sir, sunshine and portia arrived. The hour shift we signed up for ended up stretching well into two. Neither of us minded. i had a blast greeting so many of my perv friends. About halfway into my shift, i realized that Patrick and i didn’t have our “staff” badges. i volunteered to retrieve them from the staff area. By this time the ballroom’s transformation was nearly complete. There were St. Andrews crosses and chain stations placed along the room’s walls. i spied a medical examination table (of which i would soon become intimately familiar) and several spanking benches. Clay, the head dungeon master gave me our badges which resembled press passes. i have to admit i felt pretty special to be included among those responsible for making the Ball weekend such a success. i think Patrick was as pleased as i to have his official badge.
   Sir, sunshine and portia arrived at about the same time as our replacements did. Although i was totally enjoying serving, here was what i had been looking forward to for weeks. Spending time out with Sir and my family. i wanted Sir to enjoy himself and was pleased when He led us over to the vendor’s market. i think i was pointing out the urethra sounds to a dismayed portia when i was tackled by one of my dearest friends, blossom of blossom’s creations. We hadn’t seen each other in an age. i was so glad she was vending throughout the weekend. Sir was holding up something i thought looked like a small version of those old-fashioned metal rabbit traps that Elmer Fudd used to set for Bugs Bunny. i couldn’t fathom what it could be. i think it took Sir a moment to realize that it was a jaw spreader…gawd it looked positively evil! i hoped He decided to get one!
   After chatting with blossom, Sir led us over to the Leather in Exile booth where i helped sunshine try on some leather vests. None of them fit properly, however we girls coaxed Sir into trying on a beautiful leather hat that sat alone atop the rack of vests. Sir’s trademark of sorts is his leather hat, which He has worn for many years. My knees tend to go all rubbery when he puts it on, but for some reason that new hat had Sir’s name on it. As soon as He placed it on his head, sunshine and i sighed. It was a perfect fit in size and attitude. It made Him look deliciously evil and i nearly dropped as He peered at me from under the brim, which curves devilishly down a bit in front. Sir agreed that the new hat suited Him. The purchase took a bit of time, so i took the opportunity to use the restroom and find some beverages for Uus. I was disappointed to discover that the only water and drinks available were for sale at the bar. Mental note: carry cash in thigh hi (i don’t wear bras). When i returned, the sale was complete at last and Sir thought we should go take pictures outside with Sir John and His girl, and Senko a young Dominant we are acquainted with from the BDSM-Texas channel on mirc. We took several pictures with portia’s digital camera and when Sir saw me shivering, He granted permission to go indoors. “Go change,” He said. “Yes Sir,” i replied and my heart beat a little faster.
   It was time for two dollar ‘ho. i wore a black Catherine Coatney minidress all evening, rather conservative for me, despite the playful zipper that runs the dress’ entire length. Should i be ashamed to admit that i felt more myself in the slutty garb i squeezed into in one of the stalls in the ladies bathroom? The red leather leotard fit me like a glove, four rows of chain hung loose about my breasts just beneath the attached stiff PVC collar. The black PVC hot pants cut way high on my thigh, arse flesh escaped despite the ties that ran the length of each hip. Sir likes his sluts in thigh hi stockings, and i did not disappoint him that night. The black sandals were studded with chrome, and their three-inch chrome heels gave my legs more length. One last look in the mirror, i flung my long tresses and made my way back across the ballroom in search of Sir and the girls. At first i couldn’t find them anywhere, so i figured they were still taking pictures outside. i wondered how streetwalkers worked in the wintertime. Brrr! It was freezing out there. No Sir, no sunshine, no portia. As i entered the main ballroom, i finally saw Sir across the room placing sunshine inside of a cage. Lucky girl! When i reached Him, he whispered, “you look like you have your own street corner.” His eyes bore into me and i stared right back. i love being His slut.
   Sir turned his attentions to the lovely little red riding sunshine who was now locked in the cage. Sir kissed her through the bars and whispered to her. i adore watching Sir and sunshine play. Whether it is an intense scene at the chain or a simple spanking, the connection between them is powerful and very beautiful to watch. i am always honored when Sir requests my assistance during a scene. He told me to hold sunshine’s skirt and petticoats up and pull down her frilly sissy panties. Sir used His hands to warm sunshine’s beautiful bottom and then came His cane. i tried to control my desire, but after all i was a two dolla ‘ho, and i couldn’t hide my arousal. Sir told me to pull sunshine’s bloomers back up after tenderizing her lovely flesh and then He released her. He then led us over to a very authentic looking medical examination table. My breath quickened for i knew he meant to put needles into me. my initial response is always the same….in my mind i scream “No” but tonight i wanted it more than anything…..
    i tried to pretend i didn’t notice the growing number of people gathering around. In reality i felt their eyes like tiny lasers dancing on my skin. i cannot help that i am an exhibitionist, nor do i wish to. i am alive when exposed for the slut that i am. Sir knows this, for He ordered me on the table. “No, on your knees,” He instructed as i mistakenly lay on my backside. i turned around and jutted my round arse up to face the crowd. i didn’t expect this. i should know better than to try to anticipate what Sir will do. i think He enjoys keeping me a bit off balance. i am already beginning my ascension as i hear Sir tell me to take down my shorts. i must have complied for i soon felt his hand gently caressing my skin, and then in an instant his palm exploding upon the very same surface. Such a deliciously cruel contrast. Sir begins to spank me in earnest and my desire gains momentum. “Look at you,” he whispers in my ear. “slut….they are watching you fuck.” My hips seem almost disconnected from the rest of me as they writhe and twist and buck. My mind screams “please do not stop” but i piteously attempted to hold onto my dignity. Though my hips rose to meet Sirs hand and my pussy began its drooling, i did not wish to verbally acknowledge my plight. Sir finally ceased spanking my arse, which was very much aflame. By now my mind was reeling. the bright light, the sound of His voice, the stares…i was going higher. i honestly don’t remember but i think i heard the swish of Sir’s cane, or maybe he just kept spanking. Anyway, i knew what He meant to abstract from me. “Do it. Let everyone see what a dirty slut you are.” By the third lick or swat every nerve ending was alive with need, Sir is training me to squirt on command so i bore down and fucked the air and his cane/hand and really all those behind me watching. Sir coaxed the cum straight out of me assuring me all the while He was proud of my sluttiness. i trembled as the orgasm subsided. Sir asked me if i were ready for His needles. i nodded, “Yes Daddy” and begin to remove my clothing. i placed my feet in the stirrups and Sir placed a blindfold on me. i am learning to adore needleplay, but still i do not wish to watch. Sir began to clean my breasts with the cool alcohol and i concentrated on my breathing. This was the fourth time we’ve done needles, but still there is an element of terror. The last time we did needleplay, i bled quite a bit. As i lay on the cool table, i perversely thought that maybe i would bleed once more. i had found the warmth of my blood trickling down my breast, spilling along my ribcage, and finally pooling at my hip was surprisingly arousing. Sir asked if i were ready, and again i responded yes Daddy. He began to enter me. one by one he penetrated my tender breast flesh with his tiny swords. i heard Him speaking to someone, probably portia, instructing her in assisting Him. But i was now soaring, floating above everyone and everything. i heard Sir checking in with me and i’m sure i responded “yes Daddy,” but i cannot say for certain. i tried to stay focused on the sensation of my endorphins doing their work, however, i cannot help that i am a masochist. i couldn’t hide from Daddy. He began manipulating the needles and my hips began to twitch. He asked if i liked being on display, having people look right up my cunt. All the while He’s tapping at the needles, threatening to push them deeper. my thighs began to quiver and at last He gave me what i needed, pain and permission. i don’t think i was capable of speech at that point. i barely made a sound as Sir fondled my needles, but i came hard. The needles seemed like a dozen little vibrators and that night my entire body was a clit. Daddy warned me that it was time for the removal, also known as the sting, for He must spray each tiny wound with alcohol. i don’t remember feeling a thing, i just laid there and road my high. i do recall feeling suddenly alone and reaching out for Him. He was right there as always. Somehow I put back on two dolla ‘ho. portia or sunshine must have assisted. Daddy told me he was very proud of me and i followed everyone over (i wanted to crawl) to the chain station where portia’s bondage bra would be unveiled.
   Sir had portia hold onto the dangling chain. sunshine and i laid out His toys on a couple of chairs. i was still flying high, and i doubt i was much help. i honestly do not remember their scene at all. i do remember helping portia down to the waiting blanket and wistfully stroking her with bunny fur. she babbled something to me and i believe i babbled back. By this time, the party was in full swing. my own headspace was enhanced by the sounds of screams, whip cracks and spanks, and the sights of collars, leads, and bodies poured into outrageous latex outfits. Soon after portia recovered a bit, Sir let us know it was time to go. Wwe had the seminars to attend the next day, and Wwe needed our rest. i changed out of two dolla ‘ho, and went to pick up the kiddoes. i am sure i was smiling as i drifted off to sleep.

RACE BANNON’S Master/slave Relationships
Sir said that Wwe could attend any workshops Wwe wished. It is understandable that all four of us wanted to see Race Bannon’s presentation on Master/slave Relationships. Race wrote Learning the Ropes, one of the earlier introduction to S/M books. None of us attended any of Race’s classes previously, nor had we met him before. i am sincerely glad that i can now say that i have. Initially Race struck me as a very genteel soul. He opened the session by giving a bit of background, and admitting to us that years and years ago he was the kind of Top that he now warns submissives about. i think the entire room was impressed with his candor. Race is a 29 -year veteran of the scene and has presented on a variety of BDSM topics to national and local leather organizations as well as at professional psychological conferences. He stressed that many M/s relationships operate under the same dynamics as regular relationships. He offered what he called “High level advice tips.”

They included:


  1. Don’t try to copy someone else’s M/s relationship and make it your own. Make it your own from the start!

  2. Decide what level of reality threshold you are comfortable with and work that out in the beginning of a relationship.

  3. There is no such thing as a cookie cutter Master or slave. Masters and slaves are unique. i really loved hearing this from Race. So often in the past i questioned my own slavehood or submission when i was told by my own Master at the time “I wasn’t a real slave because….x…y…z

  4. Make contracts a general guideline for the relationship, make them short term and renegotiate frequently.

   Race told us that many years ago, he published an article in an S/M magazine that included one of the first contracts for an S/M relationship. He learned months later that people were just Xeroxing the contract and having submissives sign them without consideration to the individual or the relationship. This wasn’t one of Race’s proudest contributions to the community, he said. i say that Race is doing a immeasurable service by educating others about contracts and importance of developing a distinctive relationship with another.
   There were a few people in the audience who asked interesting questions and posed various perspectives. Sir commented several times and Race seemed to appreciate his insights. sunshine and i were seated on the floor, dressed like twins in our boi attire: blue jeans, our black Thunder in the Mountains (link to my thunder piece or the thunder site?) tee shirt and combat boots. Race pointed out that all M/s or D/s relationships have their own uniqueness. sunshine and i were seated at Sir’s feet, while another submissive sat in a chair by her Master’s side. There is no right and wrong, only being true to yourself and your relationship. After the seminar, Wwe got to thank Race for coming to Houston and sharing with Uus. Sir spoke with Race about publishing, as He is looking ahead to when his own manuscript is ready for printing. Race readily shared information with Sir, suggesting that self-publishing might be the way to go, as there are fewer publishers of kinky material these days. I kicked myself for forgetting my copy of Learning the Ropes, but Race promised He would sign it for me later. i excused myself so i could make it to the little boi’s room before the next seminar.
