Places and names have been changed. The
time in my life when these events occurred is altered. One scene was added, to
wrap up the story and tie it in a tidy bow.
But otherwise, it’s all true.
One woman’s journey into the contemporary
kink underworld, Perilous Play is Suz
deMello’s explosive personal account of her experiences with BDSM. Engaging and
honest, this groundbreaking memoir will grab you and never let you go.
Here’s
an excerpt about one of my first BDSM experiences, with a man I call Trapper
Hart. Trapper is a real person. That’s not his true name of course, but I gave
my word that I wouldn’t reveal his secret life. I don’t owe him anything—not
after the way he treated me—but I do keep my word.
We explored the dungeon and the equipment.
The play space was clean and nicely decorated, with the usual emphasis on
chains and black leather. There were Saint Andrew’s crosses, racks and slings,
all of which intrigued me. The old-fashioned dentist’s chair startled me. I’ve
been with a dentist, and little about him had been sexy.
Upstairs was a huge, romantically draped
bed with sturdy-looking bedposts. A few feet away was a contraption that looked
as though it had been designed with bondage and discipline in mind. It had a
horizontal ring to hold the face and head attached to a surface, perhaps three
feet long, for one’s torso to rest upon. Arm and leg supports, and every inch
of it was padded. Every part of it had rings for the attachment of ropes or
chains.
I looked at him and then this…bondage
device…and then back at him. He smiled.
I said, “I want you to know that when we
do this, I’m going to develop some deep feelings for you. I’m falling for you.”
I know myself fairly well, and am aware that for me, sex and intimacy are
intertwined. I wish I didn’t feel that way, but I tend to become emotionally
involved with the men I’m fucking. The weekend had already been very intimate,
and deeper intimacy was coming. I asked Trapper, “Can you deal with that?”
I needed to know that I would be taken
care of. Not just my body but my mind and heart as well.
He told me, “Yes, there will be a role for
you.”
A niggle of doubt itched me briefly, but
at the time, that was enough for me to hear. I was eager to advance into this
new experience, one I had craved for so long.
He directed me to remove some of my
outerwear before hooding and gagging me. Then he guided me to the
whatever-it-was and eased me onto it face down. He secured wrist and ankle
restraints around me, then tied them to it. Lifting my skirt, he cut off my
black lace panties.
I told myself never to wear panties around
Trapper again. What for?
So I was bound to immobility and
completely available. I was gagged, which meant that I could maybe grunt out my
“safe word” if necessary. Or not.
Again, I don’t recall exactly what
happened...the amnesiac effect of the oxytocin, I suppose. I remember being
spanked, flogged and thoroughly fucked. I remember being smacked repeatedly
with something—I didn’t know what, but I suspected it was made of leather—that
hurt like a motherfucker. I recall begging him, “Please, sir, please sir,
please sir…” through the gag.
I remember coming a lot.
I remember Trapper bending over me,
covering me with his body and heat, hissing into my ear, “Whose are you?”
To which I promptly responded, “I’m
yours.”
And I meant it.
