It didn’t.
The large, open space featured a live art installation of BDSM featuring women in both Dom and sub roles in various stages of undress, freeze-framed for several moments as they worked through a series of poses.
Like a live action flip book in slow motion.
Scattered vignettes included several props. Women and men were cuffed to spanking benches, wooden frames or crosses. One woman hung suspended from the ceiling, ropes cleverly placed to conceal nothing.
Some of it looked frankly painful.
Minty
The final station, set up in a large room, staged and furnished to look like the playroom of a sex club, stipulated no time constraint.
Which was good because Lucky was about to have a coronary.
At the sight of the nipple clamps, his face paled.
The gentleman sub cuffed to a cross, his nether regions encased in a cage, elicited a pained curse.
Fortunately, that was as racy as it got.
I hooked my hand through Lucky’s elbow and gently tugged him forward. “Come, darling. Let’s go.”
Once outside, Lucky lifted my hand from his arm and laced my fingers through his. “Let’s walk for a bit. I need some air.”
Working to quell my smile, I strolled along beside him. Located across the street from the lake, taking a walk along the pier was almost a given after visiting the art gallery.
“I, uh, I really want to apologize.” He cleared his throat.
I cut him off. “It’s quite alright, darling. It’s not a big deal. It was interesting.”
“Really?” He twisted his neck to look down at me.
I shrugged. “Sure. I’ve read lots of romance books featuring BDSM. It was interesting to see a visual representation.”
“And what did you think of it?”
We crossed the road and took the path along the lakeshore.
I wrinkled my nose. “It’s much sexier in print than in reality.”
“What about it appeals to you?”
“The open communication and attention. Couples talk about their sexual limits, what they do and don’t want to do. Sometimes they allow each other to push to expand those limits. The focused attention on your partner, I’m not sure anything can beat that.”
“So…not the whips and chains and cages.”
“Not those things, no,” I confirmed with a laugh.
He covered his chest with his hand. “Thank, God. I don’t think I could give you that. I’m not sure I can even perform tonight. Did you see that one man?”
I grinned up at him. “I did. You sure you don’t want to try it?”
He shook his head adamantly. “I’m sure.” He paused. “But I wouldn’t mind seeing you in some of those outfits.”
“Oh, yeah?” I teased. “Which one?”
Dimples flashing, he pulled me to a stop at the side of the path and looped his arms around my back. “Any of them. Except for those pinchy nipple things. I would never want to do that to your pretty nipples.”
