The Book Club Part 2

[ve****]

The way the men found out was that Karen had left some of her toys and implements out and her husband found them and demanded answers. In the course of the argument, he also found out that Karen had been having a small affair with one of the gardening crew they had hired for the lawn and the landscaping. He, of course demanded that they get a divorce. He and Beverly's husband had a gold date that next Saturday and after Karen's husband told the sordid tale about the affair, Beverly's husband also did some investigating around the house and found Beverly's stash of equipment as well. The two women had broken the seal of secrecy around the book club. The two husbands then called a meeting of the other four husbands who did their own investigations revealing stashes in each house of various implements, toys, and stuff. When confronted, the women had to confess although they hid behind the veil of following the advice of Stacy's therapist. Lucky me, Stacy was holding the line on secrecy.

What followed next would rival that of preparing for a duel. The men retreated long enough to consult with each other on what steps should be taken next. To divorce their wives was a drastic step since they all loved them and and had been having the best sex of their married lives as of late. Besides, the scandal that might occur also weighed on their minds. Instead, they put together a genius plan where they would join the WEBC not as members but rather as Masters of the club. They demanded total capitulation from the wives giving no quarter.

The women in the meantime were frightened that the husbands would divorce them all. I took some time for them all to calm and during that time frame, Stacy contacted me to ask advice on what they should. I of course wanted to wash my hands of the entire situation. I was relive that I would likely not be called as a witness for a divorce case a thousand miles away. I found myself cautioning her to first calm the situation down and wait for the men to make the first move. They would know soon enough. Secondly, this was probably a good things since things were now out in the open. They should take advantage of that fact. Accept they had a poor hand but still look for the blessings that might flow out of the mess. Chaos, after all, provides great opportunities for those who can seize it. They should recognize that what they really should do is lay out in detail what each of them really wanted out of all of this. If they wanted to remain married then they should move in that route. If they wanted out, then that was another option. It was more than that however, they should explain in great detail how they had felt being ignored, their reduced sexual relations, the lack of excitement and all the other issues they had until they had opened their eyes and actually action that their husbands had failed in taking. The return from the club had been more excitement and sex than any of them had in years and that was a good thing. They should make that case firmly. Lastly, they were going to have to compromise. Things were gong to be different now but they could make inroads on what the differences were and how they would be implemented. So the women huddled over the next few days laying out their case while the men fumed and laid out theirs as well.

The negotiations began in earnest a few days later after things had calmed down. No one had moved out or filed for divorce. Each couple had professed their love for their partners including Karen and her husband who decided he could forgive if she would vow to return to him after the negotiations.

The men had formed a united front feeling that were wronged at least in terms of deceit. The women were less united because Karen and Beverly had cracked under pressure and violated the oath of secrecy. On top of that, Karen's affair had put them all in danger.

The men made their presentation. They acknowledged that they had been derelict in the lack of attention they had paid to their wives but argued that keeping things violate the marriage vows they were under. The men felt that in order to address the issues confronting them, there had to be a governing body which could adjudicate disputes and there must be method of establishing a set of rules between partners, that when violated the rules must be en***d, and that they demanded that their desires as well as those of the wives had to addressed. They demanded that their role as head of the households be upheld. Even Stacy thought it was a strong argument they made with good points illustrating each part of the presentation.

In rebuttal Stacy was the spokes woman. She pointed all the good that came out of the club. Each man and wife was having better sexual relations and the wives wanted that to continue. The wives wanted to command the attention of the men. They would not be ignored. They were willing to concede that perhaps they had gone about it the wrong way but they wanted to have ore excitement in their lives and in a genius move blamed Karen's affair on her husband saying that Karen was desperate for praise and affection so she had reached out the only way she knew. Of course that portion was all bullshit but it did make the point that the men were not blameless in all of this.

The negotiations went on for some hours and through several bottles of wine and bourbon for the parties involved.

The women tried to give as well as they got but they were in trouble. They started to give way in the negotiations as the wine and booze flowed. Karen in particularly was not helping their cause. In the end, they did make some ground insisting that the men take more of an interest in them on a daily basis and that quite honestly, it was not their fault that sexual relations were bad although they had tried to remedy it through The Book Club.The men countered that subterfuge was clearly not the answer. Perfect honesty would have been the remedy. And so the arguments went with one side making a point with the other refuting it when they could. The men demanded they be allowed to punish the wives who got out of line and that was when things started to break down for the women since they truly wanted attention, praise and discipline discipline in their lives. As the discussion moved forward from there, the discussion was more about how to make the rules, regulate the rules, punish the rules breakers and to ensure that everyone had a fair stake in the outcomes that would produce. Finally they produced a workable agreement that all of them agreed to support. I looked something like this:

The men will be restored as the head of the households.

The men would pay more attention to their wives' concerns including sex.
The women on the other hand would submit to punishment as meted out by the men concerning well written out rules with well spelled out consequences.

The punishments would be conducted within the club. Minor transgressions would be handled b husbands, but for major transgression it would be handled by the club. Punishments would be in front of the other members to ensure that all was fair.

Men would have the ability to task wives, ensuring that each task was agreed on by both man and wife. To do this, a contract would be agreed upon within each couple.

Men would in exchange take his wife on at least two night for date nights and would guarantee sex at least if not more, three times per week.

Men would receive sex upon demand from wives with the only exception being that a wife old deny sex no more than twice per week.

Part of the contract drawn up by each couple would include what types of sexual activity they agreed to, might experiment in, and what were their allowable limits. It would also include red lines drawn by agreement which would not be crossed without redoing the contract. Those things that were negotiable remained just that, negotiable util both parties agreed or disagreed.
Punishment would be by corporal discipline and apply only to the woman since it was upon her that the tasks and demands were being made.

In the end, the wives agreed to this rough set of rules.

The final contract was left that Stacy and her husband would write the final draft.

What a mess. It took many days and much compromising to come up with the final document to form what had been Wive's Erotic Book Club into it's new form. Stacy and her husband were two of the most reasonable people in the group which is why they were chosen to write the formation document. In the end, the it was much more detailed and descriptive on what was and was not allowed.

Te first step Stacy took as to provide a list of all the kinky areas of sex that she could find She used the site we were on to give her a start and then researched the subject to bring up all kinds of other things she added to the list. Then she developed a spread sheet with all the sexual acts and paraphernalia surrounding them on the left side of the sheet. The columns corresponding to those acts would then be filled in as yes, maybe or no. Nos were considered hard nos from that person, maybes were considered they were open to it but needed to agreed, and yes meant it was agreed to. The couples would initially fill out the spread sheets separately and Stacy would then combine the two inputs to form a spread sheet where they agreed, disagreed or were negotiable with each other. The ones that did not correlate – where one party wanted to and the other didn't was highlighted as must be negotiated to ensure that limits were not trespassed over. . It surprised the men but not the women that the women were far more open to try new things. The data sheet became a springboard for the men to compromise more than they had up to then. In short by giving the men more than the men had anticipated, they had gained some leverage. That helped to break the log jam on how things would be adjudged. It also was a catalyst for the couples to be more honest with each other.

By the next meeting, the couples were no longer viewing each other as adversaries but instead ad partners in this entire enterprise. Most couples had come to within 90% of each other concerning allowable acts. It appeared that arbitration was not going to be needed and the last items were left to each couple to work things out among themselves. Stacy presented the final form for the club.

The overarching themes were”
Men reigned supreme within the house and were allowed to task wives.
Wives must submit and obey their man.
Minor matters, as stipulated in the couples agreement, were to be settled at home.
Major offenses would be referred to the club.
Major offense were defined as over spending the budget provided, denial of sex, more than 5 minor offenses in a week, and sex outside of the marriage unless with consent of both parties.

Punishment would be administered by the club. The husband was not allowed to administer punishment for infractions he reported for his wife
Instead the wife would be judged by a three husband panel who would decide on a punishment . The punishment would be carried out by the men other than the husband. Punishments that could be carried out were the paddle, the bamboo switch bundle, the strap, the martinet, cane and dressage whip. The number of strokes and the implement would have an element of chance to ensure a default to the highest number would not be ***d. The maximum number of strokes per punishment session would be set at 36. When a wife was accused by her husband, she was to come before the three person panel. The husband would act as prosecutor and the accused would act as her defense. After both parties had their say, the accused was either dismiss or found guilty. If guilty, there were three standard dice placed in front of her. The first roll determined the implement she would be punished with. 1. for the paddle, 2 for the bamboo switch bundle, 3 for the strap, 4 for the martinet, 5 for the cane, and 6 for the dressage whip. She then rolled the next die to determine the number of strokes that would be multiplied. 1 for 1 stroke, 2 for 2 etc. the third die was the multiplier for the strokes. So if she rolled a 2 and then rolled a 6 she would get 12 strokes. Even if she rolled a 6 and a 6 the highest number of strokes was limited to 36. If she had committed more than one major offense, then the second offense was rolled for as long as it did not exceed the 36 stroke threshold. If it did, then that punishment would be administered the next meeting. Assuming that wives would not willingly violate the rules, the punishment nights were set initially at once per month. Punishments would be administered to the wife,naked and strapped down to a spanking bench in the order they were rolled.

Although the negotiators tried to sell the compromises before the meeting to their sides, the men object vehemently that the accused should be naked in font of the panel. The women objected to being naked at all. In the end the men prevailed but gave in to insert an amendment that husbands were only allowed to stack minor offenses once per punishment session. That would curtail the husbands from abusing their power to some degree. Finally it seemed that all parties agreed on a way forward. There was one more sticking point however.

The men insisted that each of the women should have two major assigned to them for punishment informing the book club. The women of course insisted that was unfair. In the end, it was agreed that the women would make a scapegoat of Karen, who after all had an affair, and she would accept two major offenses and the rest of us would accept one major offense which would be administered at the first meeting in two weeks time. In the future the meeting would be scheduled monthly.

I will allow Stacy's own words describe what happened next from her writing in her journal.

“J, you might imagine that I was none too happy to be assigned a major and would be punished in two weeks time along with 4 of the other wives while poor Karen was given up to take two major offenses due to her affair. It is a little unfair but then again, we are in this mess due to her affair so I don't feel that badly for her. Instead I am afraid of how bad this punishment might actually be. My husband I are now in agreement with all things in the data sheet and he is busy looking for ways for me to occupy my time when he is not around. Believe it or not, this has been great for our relationship. He pays a lot more attention to me and seems to value me more as well. He has gone all in the new formation of the WEBC spending *** to purchase a well made spanking bench, getting different things like the punishment implements and other things we need. Of course it is going to hosted at our house although it will rotate in the future I am sure or at least I hope if will. For two weeks the entire bunch of us have been trying to sort out all the rules, methods and stuff for the club. The other wives will be bringing snacks _ I don't know if that is a thing for punishment nights. Kinda seems strange doesn't it. I mean bringing snacks to a night when you are going to get punished. Maybe it is just me. I do know that the guys are planning on bringing drinks. Well I guess we will see. We are all on edge and it the biggest topic of discussion between all 1 of us particularly when talking to the other wives. Their attitudes are apprehensive and exited as well. It is again, very odd.

Some of the implements came today and I looked at them. I don't think I am going to enjoy this at all. They look pretty wicked. The paddle is very large and solid, the dressage whip is thick and springy. Only the can looks like I thought it would. Hank goodness he only got a medium cane which came marked as a College Cane. I am told that the English classify the canes starting from the small to the largest as Elementary, Secondary, College and finally Prison grades. I wonder if that is all true. I do know the english seem to be fond of caning their women. Perhaps they know something I don't.

Tonight is the night am I am scared but excited as well. I imagine I will be humiliated when I stand before boyfriends stripped of my clothing. Hubby has not allowed me into the basement since the bench arrived and he put it together. He has told me that the men have put together a standard process for all punishment nights in the future. In addition to three of them being the panel and each husband the prosecutor for his wife, they have assigned a role as a Master at Arms to escort the women to and from the trial. All of this holds some mystery for us women. None of the other women know much either and we are all apprehensive.

Last night was a nightmare. It was the first punishment night for the club. As the couples arrived together, the men went downstairs except for Beverly's husband who had been designated the Master At Arms. We were given the order we were to be punished. I was third. Karen would be last so the rest of us could watch her get punished as a lesson for us on what might happen if we have an affair. Beverly's husband's phone dinged and that was obviously the message for us to strip down. We went to the Master Bedroom and removed all of our clothes. When we were in there, out MAA came in and had shackles which we put on our ankles and out wrists. We were in chains to be led down. They took poor Jill first and she was the most afraid of all of us. Perhaps it was just as well. She could hardly walk out the door. Our basement is well insulated and where we were, we could not hear anything of the proceedings so I really don't know exactly what happened to Jill. About twenty minutes went by before he came back to get Gina. Her knees were literally knocking as she walked slowly behind him out the door. In the meantime what do any of us do while we are standing around naked in a group while in chains. We stoked each others' ***s, that is what. We talked and fretted. We chatted and we shuddered. We all knew It was gong to be unpleasant. I was next and I felt sick in the pit of my stomach as II waited. The time seemed to be shorter when he came up. Then I remembered that perhaps Gina had rolled a good multiplier of strokes. I followed him out the door and timidly walked down the steps to the basement. As I turned from the stairway, I saw Jill and Gina kneeling at the side of a bench across from the room from the men. Four were sitting behind a table except for Beverly's husband and my husband who were standing. I did not have time to see much more than that as I was roughly pulled over to stand in front of the men at the table My husband took his place at my side and simply said, “Stacy was a major figure in the starting of the WEBC.” I was asked to plead guilty or not. I said “Guilty.” What else could I say. I formed it. I saw the extra husband was writing notes on the proceeding. I was motioned forward and given a die and told to roll it. I rolled a 5. Since I had written the formation document, I knew I would be given the cane. I was provided another die and rolled another 5. Damn, now I really needed a low number for the multiplier. I again was given a die and this tie I got somehow lucky and rolled a 2. That meant I would get 10 strokes of the cane. Them men looked disappointed. They pulled me around now, while my husband took a chair behind the table. The men took me over to the bench and had e kneel on a platform that was at the end of the bench. No I was able to see the damage on ill and Gina's backsides. Jill was badly bruised deeply with her ass turning a dark purple. Gina's ass looked like it hardly been touched – later she had confounded the men by rolling two straight ones and then a two. She had only received 2 strokes from a paddle. She was lucky.

The men stretched my body across the bench and pulled my knees wide to the end of the platform I was kneeling on and strapped them to some eyes on the end of the bench. At the same time my arms were stretched forward and down alongside the bench as strapped to some rings on the side of the legs of the bench. Then they applied straps across my lower back and tightened if down so I could not move around much. Finally I had a gag pushed into my mouth a strapped on tight so I would not be able to cry out loudly. In that position it was clear I was only going to be able to take it. For some reason that calmed me down a little. I glanced at Jill's but again and was almost glad I was not getting the paddle. The five men would each take two strokes apiece in punishing me, changing the men after the second stroke for each of them. I was told to be ready and I heard the cane whistle in the air a few times as the first man whipped it in the air. Then I heard a menacing whistle and heard a loud thwack as the cane hit my ass. I was surprised more than in *** at first until the line of fire started to build. I wondered if the men had been practicing. The second one hit me a few seconds later. Each man seemed to be trying to make sure they hit skin that had not been hit before and I felt them run their hands over my ass between strokes. It was terribly embarrassing but also exciting. I could feel myself getting wet both from the *** and the men talking about my bottom and feeling along it. One of them ran his finger along my slot and commented to my husband that I was wet. By the sixth stroke my head was bobbing up and down with the *** and I was breathing hard. By stroke 8 I was crying with tears rolling down my cheeks. By stroke ten I hung my head down and sobbed into the gag. I was unstrapped and unceremoniously put in line with the other girls on my knees with my ass towards the men, and my hands behind my head. It was horrible how excited I had become from the caning.

Kneeling there with my ass burning I really don't remember much about the other girls who got punished except two things. The men were all exited about Beverly's big tits and her pierced nipples which besides her husband had never been seen by them and I remember Karen squealing and yelling a she took her two majors. Lucky for her she had rolled well but had two different implements, the cane and the bamboo bundle. When we wee finally allowed to get up and go bak to the room to put soothing gel on our wounds, he backside was speckled with little spots amid the thin lines from the bamboo switches as well as cut deep by the cane. She won the worst punishment ass among us but Beverly came close since she had taken 24 stroke of the strap. Her ass was a deep reddish purple with wide welts that wrapped around her thighs. She would not be at the pool very soon. When we had soothes out asses, we were allowed to join the men downstairs, have a glass of wine while the men complimented us on how we took our punishments. I had a feeling this club would be hanging into something else entirely before it was all over.”

Boy was she right.

Lovely concept. Particularly like the randomness of the punishments with the dice.

Great story
