[KnownAsHerbert] New chapter

[KHEmmi]

Aww, that Cobra Nub is so tiny and cute. Why would I ever want to unlock it?

[Mr Pickle]

Emmie has a point. Why indeed?
And it seems you're actually enjoying the worst part of the Cobra? Absent cock syndrome.
I suppose everyone is different. I mean that is a good way.
Thanks for all the updates Herbs

Ok, so a couple of nights in the Cobra Nub have convinced me that going back to the Nub after the steel is not so good after all. I woke at about 4am again, straining but feeling not much else.

The Nub was a good move, it fits perfectly and is very comfortable all the time, whatever I am doing. But the comfort also means no feeling most of the time as well. I know it's there when I get aroused and it very securely contains my erections in its tiny little space but there's nothing else. Miss Emmie can just about touch me through the little holes but they are too small to achieve anything useful.

The bottom line is that the Nub is so comfortable that it can hold me securely in position without any feeling, stimulus or arousal at all for hours on end and that, as I have said before, is a different kind of frustration entirely.

Miss Emmie has said we'll swap between the steel and the Nub from time to time to make a change, to add some variety. I can see that makes sense but I am already looking forward to getting back into my rather heavy steel cage again and I've no idea when that will be.

Finding myself halfway through my longest locked stint to date (of 30 days) and I'm not sure what I'm feeling about it any more. Perhaps a sort of calm acceptance? Someone said that realistically it can take 3 months to get used to being caged full time, and I'm only a week away from that 3 month milestone now, so maybe my calm acceptance, if that's what it is, is a sign of being “used to it”. I woke early, hard as usual, but just laid there, aware but not even frustrated. In some ways it was quite pleasant. Just as I had been told it would be.

For the last week or so, I've been back in the Cobra and finding the lack of stimulation, or even any feeling during the day, frustrating in itself. I rarely get any erection attempts during the day because the Cobra doesn't do anything. No sensation, no pressure, no anything at all whatever I do as I get on with my day. No weight to it either so there's not even a reminder that I'm wearing the damned thing. I suppose I have to admit that it does a fine job of meeting its design objectives but boy, is it annoying!?

Miss Emmie has given no hint about when I will be back into the steel cage. All she has said is that she will “chop and change” to keep it interesting.

As I laid there this morning, wondering whether to go and make coffee, Miss Emmie began to stir from her sleep (early for her) and wanted me to cuddle up. No problem with that so I curled around her body and held on to her as she drifted off for a few more zzzs. I, of course, did not drift off for any more zzzs but it was quite lovely and peaceful to lie there holding on to her. No rush to get up. Coffee could wait.

Now I am up and about, we've had coffee, showers, got dressed and on to our respective days. Work (at home) for me and she has things to get on with as her parents are visiting at the weekend. She wants everything to look nice and to be ready for when they arrive. Miss Emmie has made no mention of the cage, unlocking, sex, or anything of the sort today. She's not even demanded her wake-up orgasm. I've no idea why. Preoccupied with preparations for the weekend perhaps. I'm not allowed to ask about the cage or unlocking so I'll just get on with another day with no feeling, no expectations, and just do the things that I have to do when required.

"You don't ask. You wait."

Calm acceptance...

[waki86]

Accepting being locked up takes an average of about three months.
But that of course differs per person.
And it is not for everyone to practice chastity.
Eventually your head says okay, it's not being used anymore and your cock accepts it too.
You will become less frustrated about getting hard and you will experience the feeling that it is even pleasant when your erection is held back.
At least that's how I experience it.
I enjoy that exciting feeling more now.

Even with a metal cage, at some point you get used to its heaviness.
And eventually you won't even notice that you're wearing it anymore.
The longer you are left in it, the more accustomed you become. And if you are allowed to come and have some time off, people often want to go back into the cage themselves.
Because it feels so wonderful, familiar and protected.

Some people, including me, no longer have the urge to come.
It's just not necessary anymore.
People enjoy it more when the keyholder comes.
And they do everything they can to please her and give her nice orgasms.

“Now what's going on?”

A question that often flits into my mind these days. Including yesterday at around 5pm.

Miss Emmie: You done for the day?
Me: Umm-hmm. All finished.
Miss Emmie: Strip

As always, it has to be right now, on the spot. I was still at my desk in my little office space upstairs. It's a comfortable, almost cosy little room overlooking the back garden. Quiet and ideal for when I work at home, which is quite often these days. So there I was, standing in my office minus clothes, and Miss Emmie handed me the key to the Cobra.

Miss Emmie: Take the Nub off.
She waits while I do so, and then...
“All fours”
I get down on my hands and knees and immediately hear and feel the riding crop make contact with the right cheek of my bum.
“Arghh, Oww!”
“Be quiet. That was for touching your balls on Tuesday”
She keeps detailed records? Another strike on the left cheek but she missed and caught me low down, almost at the top of my thigh.
“Oww! Ughh”
“Be quiet!. That was for touching them again yesterday”

Miss Emmie then sat of the floor beside me (there's only just enough room for us to do this here)
“Don't come”

And so, following an unexpected couple of swishes of the crop, came an unexpected edging. Three times in all, and each time I thought I'd misjudged it and was going to make a mess on my nice office carpet, but fortunately didn't.

Miss Emmie: That's all for now. Now “Wait”
I knelt up and stayed in the kneeling position. Waiting. Because that's what the “Wait” command means. Miss Emmie went and ran me a bath. I then heard another simple command: “Come”. I always amuse myself by thinking how much this sounds like I'm being given permission to have a wank, but decided against trying my luck here and headed off to the bathroom.

Miss Emmie: Have a nice soak and clean up. Get in.
Me: Ok. Thanks.

One supervised soak and clean up completed, dried off and feeling clean and relaxed, I was handed the House of Denial cage.

Miss Emmie: Here you go. You've been waiting for this. Now put it on.
Me: Thank you Miss Emmie.

Putting it on was like the first time all over again and I was struck (again) by how heavy it was. Also aware of how I had to ease myself into the narrower cage and was held in place within it once locked on. Within the first few minutes I was already straining at the bars, a fact that Miss Emmie enjoyed and continued to enjoy because the steel cage was all she gave me to wear for the rest of the evening. A rather different night from the past week as I settle in for the next 17 nights until my next planned unlocking.

“Now what's going on?”

The same question popped into my head this morning.

The in-laws are coming to stay for a few days, which is great because I get on well with them, Miss Emmie will be excited and happy spending time with them, and it will all be fun. We'll go out to pubs, restaurants, for a walk maybe, and her dad will, without any doubt at all, insist on paying for meals. A nice change, plenty of chat, and a good time all round.

The question at the beginning of my post arose when I returned from the shower this morning and was handed the key to my cage and told to swap back to the Cobra Nub. I was told that I will be spending the time that the in-laws are with us "Nubbed" instead of "Steeled". Apparently, I am less likely to be distracted that way. Well, yes of course, because I can't feel a bloody thing! Just got settled back into the steel too.

[KnownAsHerbert]

We're having a relaxing time while Miss Emmie's parents are staying with us. Out to a pub for a traditional Sunday Roast yesterday and sitting out in the back garden on a pleasantly warm evening drinking white wine and listening to their news and updating them with ours. All good so far and especially good to see Miss Emmie enjoying their company and doing everything to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable for them.

Strange (or maybe not) but even when it's just the two of us in private, there's been no mention of the cage or anything related to it since they arrived. It's almost as if it doesn't exist. I'm just going with it and not raising it either. Also slightly surprised that the technology curfew is pretty much the same as usual. I thought it might be extended but it appears that I can use my phone and computer as normal, and get told when I can't as normal too.

I had a bizarre night though. At least 3 major wake ups with raging erection attempts each time. Maybe it was just one raging attempt and I managed to sleep with it between the wake ups, I don't know. It felt like it anyway. Lots of dreams, I remember lots of dreams too. Quite a disturbed night overall. Maybe the excessive erections are because I'm still in the 3rd week? I've heard that everything kicks in big time during the 3rd week and have already experienced it once so perhaps this is more of the same. Wearing the Cobra Nub again could be making things worse. I see on Miss Emmie's chart that I still have 14 nights to go so this is going to be a challenge and the longest period locked so far.

I'm not wishing their time here away because I get on well with them and we are all having a great time, but I am hoping that once the in-laws have gone home that I get switched back to the steel. I think things might get slightly easier then. The lack of attention from Miss Emmie is definitely not helping at the moment. But she is smiling a lot with having her folks around. That makes it all worthwhile.

[Tongue+groove]

Happy wife happy life.

Back to normal now that Miss Emmie's parents have left after a lovely few days visiting us. Genuinely lovely as I get on well with my in-laws and there's always plenty for me to talk about, with her dad especially. Normal means that I will try to get all my work tasks out of the way (working from home) so that the weekend can start early.

I've spent a few days back in the Cobra Nub now (I was swapped into it while her parents were with us) and was expecting to go back into the steel, but so far that hasn't happened. As I've put before, the Cobra is really comfortable and good but most of the time, during the day, I just can't feel anything at all. There's no weight to it, no feeling, no reminder that it's there, no sensations to cause arousal. Just nothing. The nothingness becomes frustrating in its own way in the end and I think I'm looking forward to changing back into the heavy steel cage again. No word on that yet though and I'm not going to ask. There's still another 12 nights before I get unlocked so plenty of time but I'd like the change to happen sooner rather than towards the end of those 12 nights. Disappointed to have racked up an additional 5 nights added to my 30. "Penalty nights" Miss Emmie calls them, earned through bad behaviour, which often means just a simple slip up somewhere along the line.

Today's forecast is for cooler weather and that's a plus for me. Hopefully still warm enough to sit in the garden with a cool cider or glass of wine this evening.

Off to get my work out of the way and hopefully be done by about midday and that will be it for the week. It'll be nice to spend some time with Miss Emmie without any pressures of things needing to be done. I expect she will have plenty of ideas of how we'll spend that time.
