To build up her anticipation and increase her excitement, I would pause after a while, and then inform her, “Before I push the needle on the meter into the red zone, there is something I will need to do first. You remember the safe word?”

When she nods, I reply, “Good.” And then put a gag on her!

As my hand reaches for the dial, I can hear her heart racing, and her eyes are wide.

She does not actually see the controls, which is good, since I do not actually touch the dial. Instead, I flip a switch, and the lights in the room go out.

“Uh-oh,” I say. “I guess we are done with this. You seem to have overloaded the machine. It’s blown a fuse. Disappointed? Sorry.”

Then I suggest, “I see your nipples are still erect. Maybe there is another way I can help you to relieve your sexual tension?”
