I hate roller coasters. Not surprisingly, Lion loves them. I’m not afraid of them. I’ll go on them with him if he wants me to. I just don’t like the ups and downs and sudden turns. I don’t like the roller coaster nature of our existence lately either. And now my mother has jumped on one. She has so many doctors with so many different theories, she goes from death’s door one day to being on the mend the next. Emotionally it’s very draining. Am I making an emergency trip to see her? Am I waiting for the inevitable? Am I going to get good news? It’s worse on my sister. She gets all the calls from all the doctors and, since she lives closer, runs to the hospital every other day hoping for the best but expecting the worst. Today we got good news. She is stable again. We’re hoping for good news on the job front too. Lion should hear later today if a job offer will come through for at least one of his prospects. Fingers crossed.

We didn’t play last night. Lion wasn’t interested. He’s nervous about the jobs. With all the craziness with my mother, I wasn’t really interested either. Tonight we will play. It’s important to keep myself on the every other day schedule at the very least. Whether Lion is horny or not, I will unlock him and give him some attention. I’m still not to the point that I will insist he get hard so I can edge him. Forcing him is not on my agenda. Will it be at some point? Perhaps. I can’t see into the future. It depends on the circumstances. It’s difficult to insist when we’re both under so much stress. On the other hand, we can’t give up altogether. That’s why, no matter what, he will be unlocked and given the opportunity tonight. No pressure. The last thing either of us needs is more pressure.

We’re just playing it by ear. Lion will be wild for our last trip of the season this weekend. When we get home he will be locked safely away again. I haven’t decided if he will get any regular opportunities to be wild as he has this summer. There was a certain necessity for his being wild in the trailer. At home he has no such need. Does that mean he doesn’t deserve a wild weekend now and then? I haven’t decided. Sometimes he sees being wild as a reward and other times he doesn’t like being wild. It’s difficult to know how he will react if I announce that he will be wild for a certain length of time. I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Lion has always maintained that a vibrator would not work on him. I was surprised when he wanted to try one. It arrived yesterday and I decided we needed to take it on a test run.

Not knowing what I was doing, we tried it with the cage on. Lion guided me until I found the spot that worked. He was instantly hard in his cage. When I unlocked him he was very hard. Perhaps the hardest I’ve ever seen him. But how can this be? Vibrators don’t work on Lion.

Clearly Lion hadn’t used the correct vibrator in the past. This Magic Wand is very effective. Once he calmed down so he could get his ring off, I started in with the vibrator again. I’m not sure why it surprised me that he got so hard so quickly. And once I found that spot again he had an orgasm within a minute or two.

We were both surprised that he came so quickly. He said he had given me fair warning. I was just experimenting with my new toy. I’m not sorry he came. How can I know the effects of the vibrator if I don’t experiment? How do I know how far to push him if I don’t push him too far? I had it all under control. Besides, vibrators don’t work on Lion.

I’ve been thinking about Lion’s post for a while, trying to come up with why things got boring to me and why they’re different now. Without sounding sanctimonious, I think I realized it’s not all about me. Yes, it may have started out with his inability to initiate and he wasn’t doing anything for me so I wasn’t going to do anything for him. The WIIFM (What’s In It For Me) was a big problem. Eventually I didn’t care about sex at all. Once we started chastity and worked through the WIIFM I came to my aha moment. Withholding sex was childish. In my mind I hadn’t really considered it withholding sex anyway. It was more of a quid pro quo thing. Wasn’t Lion withholding sex from me by not initiating? Therefore, I was clearly in the right by not initiating with him. Yup. Childish.

The bottom line is that I love Lion more than anything. Why would I want to hurt him by withholding sex? Why wouldn’t I want to do everything I can to make him happy? What difference does it make that I don’t want sex for myself? If he needs something and I can do it, then I will do it. There are things I may not like to do, so I won’t do them often. There may be things that I don’t want to do at all. There has to be some compromise. That’s what adults do.

I may lapse back into childhood from time to time. Lion does too. He has his toddler moments. But overall I think we’ve grown up a lot since starting enforced chastity. I think that’s why it’s not boring.

[Lion — I still feel very guilty that I can’t get Mrs. Lion’s motor running again. Maybe my inability to initiate all this time hurt her permanently. I love giving her orgasms and I feel very sad she can’t enjoy them.]

Lion got lots of attention yesterday. Before he went in for a shower, I unlocked him and did the manscaping. He was very furry. Naturally, Mr. Weenie sprang to attention and needed some strokes and a few sucks. And naturally, after getting him nice and hard, I had Lion roll over onto his tummy so I could manscape the backside. I do that on purpose, of course. It’s fun to watch him try to get his erection out of the way. When I was done I left him wild. It may have been a mistake to leave such a horny boy wild during a shower, but I know Lion won’t cheat. Besides, it was his night to come and I had plans for him.

It’s been a long time since Lion had a nice, long spanking. I’m not talking about a punishment spanking. I mean a play spanking that starts out slow and builds to nice, rosy buns. I did it mostly with my hand. And I did bite him a few times. He had some teeth marks on his pink cheeks. He’d forgotten about asking me to do that. All in all I think he enjoyed his spanking. He was sore and a little hot. And ready for the main course.

I told him I wanted him to beg for his orgasm. Well, he didn’t really wind up begging, but toward the end I don’t think he could form any sentences. I edged him quite a few times with my hands before I began with my mouth. Between licking and sucking he was very close. When I finally stopped and asked if he wanted to come, all he could do was whisper yes. Within a few seconds he was done.

One of the benefits of playing with him for so long is that he generates some pre-cum. I love these little appetizers. Another benefit is that when he does finally orgasm, he produces a lot. Yum! We both love when he comes. I’m sure it could be argued that he loves it more, but I am a very close second. Sometimes he gets a silly grin on his face afterwards. He’s such a happy boy.

His next wait is about ten days again. Of course, if he gets a job he gets a bonus orgasm. He’s got two prospects now. What happens if he gets two job offers? Hmmm…maybe two orgasms? We’ll have to cross that bridge if we come to it. Right now it’s just fun to believe the end of our financial troubles are in sight.

Some weeks back, Lion said he’s tried not to beg for an orgasm because he doesn’t want me to feel like I have to give him one. I wasn’t sure how he’d react when I said today I want to get him so riled up he’ll have no option but to beg. When I asked him about it last night he said this time it doesn’t matter since it’s his scheduled date. The other times he didn’t want me to cave in because he was begging. I can understand that. I have, in the past, given him a lot more bonus orgasms than I have lately. For the most part now I think it’s funny when he is really horny. I think, in a sense, how silly he is to have begged me to deny him and now he begs me to give in. And then I’m back to the old standby – be careful what you wish for. This thought crosses my mind several times a week.

When he tells me it’s punishment day and he has X things on his list and he wishes I could just forget about them, I know he hates the punishment itself but loves the power exchange. When he tells me it’s maintenance day and I don’t really have to swat him because I’m very good at swatting already, no practice needed, I know he hates the swats but loves what they represent. When I edge him over and over and he really wants me to go too far, I know he hates when I stop but loves that he is not in charge. And even when he grumbles about my not being fair, a favorite complaint of toddlers, I know he wants me to keep him under control. So sometimes I can only shake my head and stop myself from saying that phrase.

Poor Lion. He did ask for it. I know sometimes he wants to kick himself for it. I wonder how many times a week that thought pops into his mind. There he is, thinking about how horny he is and how much he wants to come and how mean I am for not letting him and bam! out of nowhere, he realizes he wanted all this. And he must think, at least for a split second, how stupid he was. And then, of course, he realizes how lucky he is.
