Charles knew how important it was to me that I include my best friend in my life, and what was important to me was important to him. Important enough that he didn't even wait for his erection to subside before slipping on a pair of boxers and coming with me to speak to Remy, only pausing long enough to undo enough of Chris' restraints so that he could free himself and join us in a bit.
Remy and Haru's eyes widened when they saw Charles stride in in nearly all of his glory. "Hello, Remy. After a bit of deliberation, Adrian and I decided that it would be best to release Haru
after our discussion."
My friend smirked. "That's cool. I'm in no rush to free him. Y'see, he came without permission last night. Practically ruined my sheets, and definitely made all the edging worthless. So he needs a little punishment."
Haru made an indignant little whimper and blushed, only for Remy to slip off his shoe and sock and stick his foot in Haru's face. "Come on, take care of me while I talk with our hosts, okay?"
I watched with interest as Haru sighed and began nuzzling and trying to kiss Remy's bare foot through his gag.
"Anyway, what did you want to talk about?"
Charles nodded to me as he stood, casually maneuvering behind Remy. He remained there while I told my friend the whole tale. Of the Company, of the husbands, even of Chris, who helpfully came in to sit down at my feet, dressed only in a jock strap, as he hadn't obtained our permission this morning to wear anything else.
"Okay... so... you're saying Charles is part of a kidnapping Company, and you're okay with that. And that he sold off his six ex-husbands to said Company, and Chris here is one of them, but is now your personal pet?"
I gave a nervous grin. "That's pretty much it."
Remy was silent for a long time, which REALLY wasn't like him. A minute passed. Then two. Finally Remy broke into a grin and gestured to Chris. "Is there a way I can get one of those, or are they just ridiculously expensive?"
Charles moved forward to pat Remy on the shoulders. "My friend, I'm certain I could get you a discount."
"You know, it'd be pretty cool to work there. You guys hiring?"
"The Company is always looking for discreet employees willing to put in hours. Why, you looking for a job?"
Remy glanced at me. "My job's okay, but I don't earn enough extra to get my boy here any real good presents. Not as often as I want. I assume these Company jobs are lucrative?"
"Procurers get paid the best, but yes, all Company jobs are well-salaried. Even our interns get paid a hefty sum."
"Procurer, huh? Those the kidnappers?"
I nodded. Remy chuckled.
"I wanna be one of them."
We spent a while discussing our knowledge of the Company, and the different possible jobs. Remy had his heart set on becoming a Procurer, even when Charles told him of the unique induction process, in which the Procurer would be trained by going through a kidnap and training program himself. However, this only seemed to excite him about it further.
Charles grinned and quickly clamped a hand over Remy's mouth, his brawny arms wrapping around my friend's arms and pinning them to his sides. My husband's strength was such that he barely even noticed he had lifted Remy bodily out of the chair. And I hadn't even noticed my own automatic movement to assist, to begin binding Remy's ankles with the rope Chris brought to me.
"If you are so determined, Remy," Charles said, with that deep giggle that made me weak in the knees, "perhaps we can show both you and Haru what your training would look like."
Immediately, Remy's startled struggles became more playful, giving virtually no real resistance as I tied the rest of his limbs. He was thrown over Charles' shoulder, and Haru over Chris', and we took them to the dungeon.
For the next couple of days, Haru and Remy remained in our house as "guests," meaning we kept them tied up and almost constantly played with them. At night, they were strung up together in the same sleepsack as Jerry was, although they had each other's company, which must have made the whole thing far more palatable.
And after it all, both Haru and Remy wanted to become Procurers. Charles told me that it would be the first time a couple became a Procurer team together, but the Company was willing to take the risk. I did worry a little about not being able to see them again, but Charles reassured me. Of course, I was tied to a chair at the time, or should I say, Chris was serving as my chair and I was tied to him while Charles played with me.
We didn't hear from them for a while, as they were sent on their first assignment after they finished training, but as the months went by, they'd make time to come see us.
Life was good. After all, my husband and I had nothing to hide from each other anymore. And I had nothing to hide from my best friend.
And as I sat reflecting on my life, nestled against Charles' side, Chris hogtied naked across our legs, helpless to prevent our teasing touches, I realized something.
I had never been happier.
