"Clem! I'm home!" Alexa called, sighing with satisfaction as she dumped her travel near the stairs. It could be taken upstairs later.

"Hi!" came Clementine's voice from up there. Momentarily, she came hurrying down to greet her wife.

"There you are," Alexa said warmly, very glad to see her. The booking she had just completed had paid well, but the client had been an obnoxious ass, plus it had meant flying, and she never liked having to fly out of town for work. This particular booking had been a momentous one though.

"I'm now officially on my new schedule, as promised," she announced, spreading her arms in celebration. In reality, the celebration was more Clem's than her own. It had been Clem's goal for a long time to stop her seeing clients, wanting her wife to herself. That was understandable of course, but Alexa had found it hard to give up work that she often enjoyed, and almost always made a lot of money from. That was why a compromise had been agreed upon. Clem would stop pressuring Alexa to quit taking bookings so long as in return Alexa worked a lighter schedule and only took bookings that meant spending one night at a time out of town at most.

"That's it? You're not going to change your mind?" Clem asked, needing reassurance.

"Of course not. I made you a promise a couple of months ago and I always keep promises I make to you. How could I not when I love you so much? I told you I'd clear out the bookings that were already taken, then I'd work to the new rules we agreed, and I relayed to Zelina. Any attempted bookings that don't meet the restrictions that will be shown on my profile on the website will be rejected. Also, I'll be taking less bookings in general. Instead, I'll be running the business from the office more often, allowing me to come home to you in the evening."

To Alexa's surprise, Clem teared up. That was how happy she was. "Sorry," she said, looking away for a moment.

"Hey, come here," Alexa said, taking her wife in an embrace. "It's me who's sorry. I could have done this sooner. And I know my work is hard for you to live with."

"You've done it now," Clem said, showing relief. "I love you, babe."

"I love you too. So much. And I'm incredibly glad that we'll be seeing more of each other. Also, I have a surprise for you. We're heading out of town tomorrow."

Clem pulled back a little so as to look at her properly. "We are? Where to?"

"It wouldn't be a surprise if I told you that, would it?"

"That's true. But now I'm going to have to think about it all night, and that will be big time frustrating."

"Somehow I think I might be able to keep your mind on other things, and deal with that frustration in the process."

Clementine's glee was immediate, knowing full well what that meant. "You're going to let me tape you up?"

"You bet. The real question is, when are you going to let me tie you up? You've stubbornly kept it off limits the whole time we've been together."

Heat and lust were building between them. Clem started kissing the side of Alexa's neck, a particular weakness that she knew how to exploit, and often did. "You know the rule I made not long after we started our relationship: No tying me up while you're going out there doing it to other people. Maybe I could relax that a little now that you've lightened your schedule. But not tonight."

"Oh, believe me, I know the rule. I've only ever gotten to tie you up once, when we first met when you booked me for a moment of Bliss."

Clem giggled. "As if I don't remember that in great detail. But like I said, not tonight. Tonight you're mine, and I'm going to keep you that way. Before we go upstairs though, I bought a nice bottle of wine on my way home. Let me pour you a glass. No doubt you need it after a travel day."

"That sounds ideal," Alexa said with relief as they went through to the kitchen. She had phoned ahead from the airport after landing to say she didn't need any dinner making, having eaten on the plane. In any event, it was too late in the day to eat a meal now.

"You're definitely not going to go back on this decision?"

"No, I'm not," Alexa said emphatically. She decided to give her wife more confidence in that by explaining the new situation with A Moment of Bliss to her in detail. "Pour us a drink and sit down. I'll tell you exactly why you should believe me, other than the fact I'd never lie to you."

Alexa sat at the kitchen island, where Clem soon joined her, setting down two glasses of wine. Alexa gratefully took a large sip of hers right away. "Thanks, honey. That's much needed. So, let's talk about the future of A Moment of Bliss. Here's what I've done over the past few months: I've hired several people to expand the roster of escorts we have available for people to book, and I've made it more diverse in the process."

"Okay. So what's the lineup now? You told me you let go of that Nikki woman. There was a bit too much crazy there."

Not so much crazy, more like obsessed with me, Alexa thought. Although from Clem's point of view that probably amounted to the same thing.

"Yes, I let Nikki go. It was for the best. Bayley and Raquel you know about, so we were already well covered for Latinas, and Raquel also covered having a tall and muscular woman for people who like that kind of thing."

"So you needed to find an impossibly beautiful little blonde who creates magic in bed to take over some of the bookings you would have done?" Clem gushed.

Uncharacteristically, Alexa blushed a little. Only Clem could do that to her. "Yes," she said with a little laugh. "To help me and take longer bookings, I hired a woman called Tiffany Stratton. She previously had her own one man band operation going called Tiffy Time. Hey, I can show you a picture," she realised, taking out her phone. "I've got pictures of all the recent hires that I got done for revamping the website."

"Tiffy Time? I like that. You should keep using that for marketing," Clem suggested.

"I think I will," Alexa said. She found a picture of Tiffany and showed it to Clem.

"She's pretty, but not in your league," was the verdict. "But then no one is."

"You'll make me blush again," Alexa said, delighting in the compliments. She took another sip of wine before moving on to the next new escort, this time showing a picture right away. "This is Naomi McCray. We didn't have a black woman on the roster, which I had wanted to correct for some time."

"She's very pretty," Clem said, admiring the picture.

"Yes, and super athletic and flexible too. She can do things with ease that would put me in the hospital."

Clem laughed loudly, something that Alexa always liked to hear

"Next we have Iyo Shirai," Alexa said, showing another picture.

"Ohhh, she's stunning as well. Japanese?"

"That's right. She has an impressive resume and there is big demand out there for Japanese girls. I think Iyo will make me a lot of money."

"You really have improved your diversity. Is that the whole roster?"

"No. There's one more. All of the girls we've talked about are high class, top quality escorts who are trained or will be trained in bondage and domination since that's our speciality. But, again with my reduced availability in mind, I wanted to get someone who is an expert dominatrix, as good as me. It took some searching, but then I found just the person. This is Tabitha Galavan."

Clementine looked at the picture of a light skinned black woman, skin tone almost identical to her own. Tabitha was dressed all in leather, her hair up in a tight ponytail, and had an 'I'm going to make you my bitch' look on her face. There was a whip in her left hand to emphasise the point.

"Damn," Clem breathed. "She looks vicious. And gorgeous. No doubt people who enjoy a bit of pain will pay a lot for her."

"That's the hope," Alexa said after another sip of wine. "Right now that's the roster. Ideally, I'd also like someone a little older, either for older clients or for people who like the whole cougar thing. I'm talking with a Canadian woman who's nearly fifty, called Trish Stratus. She'd be perfect if we can get a deal done. Looks stunning for her age too."

Clem drank some of her wine and nodded her approval. "I'm impressed, Lexi. You're such a shrewd businesswoman, as well as all your other talents. I'm lucky to have you."

"And have me you shall. No doubt there's a roll of duct tape upstairs with my name on it?"

"Oh, you know it," Clem said, immediately turned on by the thought. "I should have actually written your name on it."

"Whether there's anything written on it doesn't matter. It's what you do with it that matters. Wrap me up, Clem. And don't let me go."

"You'll give me a heart attack talking like that," Clem said breathlessly.

Alexa grinned. She might not be working her magic on clients as often from now on, but she could still work it on her wife. In this case, most of the magic involved allowing Clem to tie her up and most importantly gag her before pleasuring her. Clem's fetish was a simple one to indulge, and it wasn't unpleasant to be on the receiving end either.

A thought occurred to Clem. "I've been thinking for some time, maybe I could ask you about things people had you do?"

"You want to talk about that now? Or do you want to go upstairs?"

There was only ever going to be one answer to that question. "Let's go upstairs. We can talk about that tomorrow when we're 'heading out of town', as you put it."

"Why do you want to know anyway?"

"I might like to try some of them."

Alexa giggled. "I don't know, I've been asked to do some pretty weird stuff."

"They say don't knock it until you've tried it. Anyway, that's for tomorrow. Upstairs. Let's go!"

"Oh, you're taking charge. I like that," Alexa said, scuttling out of the kitchen, leaving her wine unfinished. Clem was right behind her in the dash up to their bedroom.

When they got in there, Alexa decided that no, Clem wasn't going to be in charge, not yet. She was going to be served a special treat. "I've got an idea, Clem. I want you to sit on the bed. In fact no, sit on the chair."

There was a high-backed chair in the bedroom. Sometimes it was used by Alexa, who would put it by the window and sit there taking in the view while drying her hair after a shower. On a few occasions it had been used by Clem to tie her to. Now it was going to have a different use.

"Why?" Clem asked, not particularly happy about things not going the way she had been looking forward to.

"Another treat. You're going to sit there, watch me tape my own mouth, then I'm going to strip for you. When I'm done, you can tie me up however you want. To the chair, on the bed, to the bed, whatever."

"I'm wet already," Clem said as she sat down on the chair.

"One of my many talents. But you're getting ahead of yourself by sitting down. Don't you need to give me some tape?"

There was always at least one roll of duct tape in the bedroom as it was the only thing Clem ever used for tying and gagging. Her fetish was as much a tape fetish as anything else. She hurried over to the nightstand and opened the top drawer. There was a roll of silver duct tape in there, barely with any used so far.

"Pays to keep it handy," Clem said, obviously extremely turned on. "Ugh, please let me tape you up."

"No. Sit down," Alexa said, holding her hand out, demanding the roll of tape.

Clem somewhat reluctantly handed it over, then sat down on the chair. "This is going to be hot and ridiculously frustrating at the same time."

"Shush. Enjoy." Alexa pulled a length of tape from the roll. It was very sticky, but not the thickest or strongest duct tape on the market. There was a reason for that. Tape like this would show the outline of her lips underneath when she was gagged by it, whereas thicker ones would not. Clem knew exactly what she liked, and had made sure Alexa knew too. So much the better for both of them.

Pouting her lips slightly, she stuck the tape over her mouth and wound the roll around her head, moving her hair out of the way as much as possible. Wrapping it around pulled the gag very tight. She stopped at only one layer so as not to cover up the mouth outline. With some difficulty, she tore the roll free and tossed it onto the bed. Lastly, she smoothed down the loose end so that it overlapped on her cheek where she had started. Work done, she looked at Clem.

"Ohhh," Clem gasped. "So god damn hot. Try to talk."

"Im cmmt," Alexa mumbled, spreading her arms in a helpless gesture, adding a suitable facial expression. Her acting skills were used on her wife as much as her clients, with the same level of effectiveness.

Clem moaned in delight, barely containing herself already. And the strip tease hadn't even started yet.

Alexa got it underway, sensually dancing for her wife while taking off first her shoes, followed by her top, then her pants, then her socks. At that point, she moved over to Clem and straddled her lap, grinding against her and making noises of enjoyment into the gag. Those noises were not entirely faked. Alexa enjoyed these experiences with the one she loved just as much as Clem did.

"This is unreal," Clem gasped, cupping Alexa's breasts. She couldn't keep her hands off the merchandise, but Alexa slapped her hands away like those of a naughty kid trying to steal cookies from a jar.

"Nmm tmmchimg," she said, just about understandable. Continuing to grind and gyrate on Clem's lap, she sensually removed her lacy black bra, revelling in the look of adoration in the beautiful brown eyes of her wife.

After fondling her own breasts for a while, Alexa stood up and stripped off her panties. They ended up loose on her right foot, which she used to flick them towards Clem. More by luck than expertise, they landed on her face.

"Mmm. Nice touch," Clem said, having no shame in smelling the panties before discarding them. "You know, if your mouth wasn't taped already I'd stuff these in there first."

"Wllm ymm cmmt," Alexa said.

"I don't understand you, and that's the way I like it. God damn, such natural beauty. How am I married to you? You're perfection," Clem said in awe.

Alexa didn't entirely like that. As far as she was concerned, she was the lucky one. To swiftly distract Clem, she picked the tape roll up of the bed and offered to hand it over. The meaning was clear.

Eagerly, Clem took the roll. "Now, where do I want you?" she said thoughtfully. After a moment, the decision was made. She got up. "In the chair."

Alexa sat down without objection, not that she could object verbally.

"You told me to properly tape you up, so that's what I'm going to do. First, I'm going to check you've done that gag properly."

Alexa knew full well that Clem wasn't doubting her of all people when it came to applying an effective gag. This was part of the game.

"Good. Nice and tight," Clem said after a quick inspection. "Put your arms on the arms of the chair."

Again, Alexa did as she was told. Clem went to work, first on her right arm. She wrapped tape tightly around her wrist and the arm of the chair, then did the same again just below the elbow. Once that process had been repeated with the left arm, Alexa was rendered unable to offer any resistance even if she had wanted to.

While the binding had been happening, Alexa had made sure to emphasise her helplessness by letting out soft, muffled moans. She knew those faint noises drove Clem wild while she when she was gagged.

She sat there and listened to the distinctive duct tape noise that she was so familiar with, most often while she was the one using it on clients. Now she was on the receiving end as her legs were being taped to the chair legs, both at the ankles and below the knees.

Clem then went even further, adding further bondage by wrapping tape around Alexa's thighs and underneath the chair's seat, followed by even more around her chest below her breasts, wrapped around the back of the chair.

This was the most comprehensive bondage Alexa had been in. Not more comprehensive than she had applied to other people herself, but that was a very different thing. She was totally unable to move anything but her head, which at least allowed her to look up at Clem with vulnerable, puppy dog eyes.

"Mmmm. Mmmmm," she moaned pathetically.

"It shouldn't be humanly possible to be this turned on," Clem said. "I'm going to make the most of it now I've got you like this. Much as I want to ravage you, you're going to stay here for a while first. The thought of you in here waiting for me, all taped up and helpless, I'm going to enjoy that for a while. Boy, am I going to enjoy it. There's only one thing missing."

Alexa watched Clem tear off a strip of tape from the roll. There wasn't much of it left now. She didn't know what the new strip was for. If Clem wanted to put tape over her nipples for some reason, she didn't need a length that long to cover one. But then Clem leaned forward and her intention was soon apparent.

Sticking the strip of tape over Alexa's eyes as a blindfold was a coup-de-grace for Clem. She delighted in the squeal of surprise she received before standing back to admire her handiwork. Alexa Bliss, the most beautiful woman on the planet, was naked and inescapably blindfolded, gagged and bound. Clem was the only one who could free her, as and when she wanted. She could almost orgasm just at thought, combined with the sight and sounds she was experiencing as Alexa made muffled groaning noises in her newfound blindness. Taking all this tape off her naked wife without hurting her wouldn't be easy, but that was a problem for later. Much later.

With her sight taken away, Alexa had to rely on her senses of hearing and smell. All she could smell was the tape over her mouth, which also affected her sense of taste with its adhesive. The taste was unpleasant but she had experienced it plenty of times before.

"I'm going downstairs for a while. I'll be back. Don't go anywhere, beautiful."

Alexa felt Clem kiss her firmly on her taped lips. She got a whiff of Clem's delightful perfume as she started trying to plead not to be left alone, not entirely acting for once, although she knew her pleas would be ignored. This was all part of the excitement for Clem, and Alexa was happy to provide for her wife despite her own discomfort.

"See you later," came Clem's voice again, now over by the door.

"Mmmmmm! Mmmmppph! Mmmmmmmm!" Alexa yelled into the tape, struggling utterly pathetically against her bonds.

The door opening, then closing, was her only response.


A/N: It has been way too long since I worked on this story. I wanted to come back with a 2024 update chapter, and some sexy time for Alexa and Clem. Who wants to see part 2 of this?

As always, if you have any booking ideas for Alexa or her new roster, let me know in the comments. All ideas will be given consideration.
