Pride Cometh Before the Fall: Part 1 of 3 (f/mm)

[Jeff K]

Greetings! Glad to see the site up and running again. I've decided to gather three of my stories into a trilogy of sorts, connected by theme rather than plot. This is the first of those.

This particular story starts, as many of mine do, when my parents were out and it was just my brother and sister and I at home. Why they ever left us alone is beyond me, but they did, and these times often turned into epic adventures!

On this particular day, I was lounging in my room, reading a Hardy Boys book, daydreaming about being captured and whisked away, unaware that such an adventure was just around the corner (spoiler warning, not that you weren't expecting it).

Eventually, I grew bored and decided to head downstairs to the basement, where I knew my older brother Henry spent much of his time, in the hopes of perhaps getting him to tie me up and hold me captive, as if I was one of the Hardy Boys, fallen into the trap of a dastardly villain.

When I reached the basement door, I knocked, but there was no reply. The light was on, so I knocked again, and this time I could hear a muffled noise. We had a flap in the door for our cat to go through, so I cautiously opened that and peeked through. To my surprise, and indeed delight, I saw Henry lying on the ground, his hands and feet bound with rope and a thick gag in his mouth, which was the cause of his voice being muffled.

With a smug grip, I opened the door, earning a grimace from my captive brother. “Comfortable?” I asked obnoxiously, and he rolled his eyes. “Did Ashley do this?” I asked, and he turned bright red before nodding slowly. I was impressed. Henry was very difficult to capture, as he was way more physically capable than I was, so my attempts pretty much always ended with me tied up.

I sauntered over to him and asked “how did she get you like this?” before removing his gag.

“Untie me,” demanded Henry.

“Not until you answer me,” I insisted. Henry groaned and pulled in vain at his bindings, but they held tight.

“Fine,” he said at last. “She asked me.”

“She asked you? And you let her? Just like that?”

Henry nodded again, clearly embarrassed. “She told me she would tell me why if I trusted her and let her tie me up. Then it turned out her whole plan was to kidnap me.”

I was mildly annoyed to hear this, considering how fiercely he resisted all my attempts to kidnap him. “How come you never gave into me like that?” I asked.

“Because I don't trust you as much,” he admitted coldly.

I looked him up and down, noting the tightness of his bonds. “Well, seems like your trust was misplaced,” I said.

“Yeah yeah,” he growled, “just hurry up and let me out of this.”

“Hmm,” I said. “And why should I do that? Why not get a little revenge?”

“Don't be so cocky,” he said. “She's planning on kidnapping you as well.”

This gave me true pause. I had been planning on taunting Henry for a bit, but letting him go pretty quickly. However, here was a delightful opportunity! I could taunt him even more and then eventually I would be captured myself! I didn't know what Ashley had in plan for us, but I knew it would be dastardly, and I knew it would be a blast.

I looked down at my captive brother again, in a rare spot of helplessness. Smiling cruelly, I simply stated “I don't think so” before returning the gag to his mouth. Henry's face flushed red, this time with anger, as he gritted his teeth and pulled at his restraints.

I circled my prisoner, reveling in this moment. “You see, with you out of the way, I have the opportunity to do something I've never done before: hold both you and Ashley captive together.” (This wasn't my actual plan, obviously, but I was enjoying the build-up).

“Once I have her in my control as well,” I continued, “I will have the greatest victory celebration the world has ever seen! I shall parade you both around the house, and submit you to brutal torments. And you shall always remember today as the day that I outsmarted you both!”

“I don't think so.”

I whipped around to find Ashley standing in the doorway, looking very confident. She held in her hands two coils of rope and another thick cloth. Henry groaned from behind me, knowing that no matter what happened, he was stuck in captivity for the time being.

I flashed my little sister a smile. “Henry's my prisoner now. You'd better turn around and go before you meet the same fate.”

“Never,” she shot back. “It was a mistake for you to not free him when you had the chance, and now you shall pay the consequences.”

“Do your worst,” I retorted, and I charged at her. Caught somewhat off-guard, Ashley quickly retreated out the basement door and attempted to shut it, but I burst through before she had the chance. Throwing aside the rope, she reached out with her hands and grabbed me by the arms to grapple with me.

Now, even had I been trying to win, it was a toss-up who had the advantage, as I was not particularly stronger than she was. We were at a stalemate for a moment and then I managed to break free from her grip. In a moment of sudden strategy, I made a dash past her, headed for the rope.

But as I passed by, her hand shot out and caught me by the wrist. As soon as she seized me, I felt all remaining fight go out of me. I froze, allowing her to grab my other wrist and pin my arms behind my back.

“Gotcha!” she declared.

I gave the ghost of a struggle, then said simply “Fine, I'm your prisoner.”

Ashley gave a triumphant laugh and then pulled with her hands, sending me to my knees before guiding me to lay flat on the ground. I lay there, offering no further resistance as she bound me hand and foot. At a command from her, I opened my mouth to accept the gag, and then I was really, truly, helpless.

Ashley sat back to catch her breath as I lay there, panting and eagerly awaiting what was in store for me. Finally she guided me to my feet and forced me downstairs, which was rather difficult to do with my hands and feet bound, but I managed. (This was also not the first time I had been forced to hop up or down a set of stairs while tied up).

Henry let out a muffled groan when he saw me. What he said next was hard to hear through the gag, but I was able to make out “are you happy now?”

Very, I thought, although I said nothing.

Once we were both there, she left us tied up on the ground for awhile so that we would grow too weak to fight back. Henry tried to scooch over and go back to back with me, but I refused to help untie him, and I resisted all his attempts to free me. I was not giving us this opportunity to be a prisoner that easily, and I was very curious to know what was in store for us.

As it turns out, Ashley's plans for us were very similar to the plans I had boasted about to Henry. When she returned, she freed our ankles and used one of those ropes to tie me to Henry, and the other one to create a lead that she could use to pull us along as she paraded us round and round the house, gloating to imaginary audience members about her complete and total dominance.

She then led us to our bedroom and had us each situate ourselves on our own bed. She kept our hands tied, but removed the ropes from our torsos and tied them to our feet again, but this time left a little extra at the end. First she went over to Henry and tied the end off to the foot of his bed. She then unbound his hands, but ordered him to place his wrists together in front of him, and she then tied them together, also leaving a little extra.

Finally she pulled on his bound wrists to force him to lay down on his back, before tugging the rope tight, stretching his arms out like he was on a medieval torture rack (but a PG version of one), before tying the end off on the head board.

I believe she did him first because she knew he might not cooperate if he knew what was coming. I, on the other hand, was all game for this, and I obeyed without question, allowing her to stretch me out on the bed as well.

She left us like this for about half an hour, then made us promise not to get revenge on her before freeing us. When we both nodded our assent, she untied Henry and he grumbled all the way out of the room. Ashley removed my gag, but before she could start on the ropes, I asked her to wait.

“Wait?” she asked quizzically?

“Yeah,” I said. “Leave me like this for awhile.”

“Okay,” she said shrugging. “If you like.”

I gave her a sheepish smile. “Thanks.”

Ashley laughed. “You want to be my prisoner,” she stated, used to this from me.

I nodded. “I actually went downstairs to see if Henry would tie me up, but then I saw you had already taken care of him, so I decided to wait until you captured me as well.”

“Can't argue with that,” she said. “Feel free to come to me first next time. I'm always down to hold you captive.”

“Will do,” I promised.

And indeed, I did.

I wish I had a sister like Ashley.

Great story as usual.

Some people out there having childhoods I wish I had a least part of
Though I AM the oldest, and no sister.

Great start to the trilogy, @Jeff K! I love the dynamic that you three had—a brother who wasn’t as into being tied up as you were (but more than willing to go along and have fun) and a sister who enjoyed doing the tying. Being siblings, I’m sure you didn’t always get along, but the affection that you all had for each other really shows and is really uplifting to read. I don’t feel too bad for Henry, though—I’m sure he got his revenge.

Looking forward to the next in the series!

[JadeAnn]

What a lovely sister! Is funny that she humiliated you walking you around before tying you up again

[Redman]

Wonderful work, Jeff. I can't wait to hear what happened next!

That's a bummer!

He had plenty of chances with me over the years.

Yeah, the humiliation was my favorite part of being captured.

[Jeff K]

Glad you liked it!

This was such a good story, loved it! I really enjoy the dynamics between the siblings. Sounds like you had lots of tie up fun! Were other people ever involved in the tugs, either with you, Ashley or Henry?

He had plenty of chances with me over the years.

Which means that there are lots of stories to tell. Fantastic!

Looking forward to your next ones!
