Stories of Tie Up Games

The poll had remained stagnate for a couple of days, so I decided to end it a bit early and post the next chapter! You the readers decided that Spark would be next up for Tommy's training! As with Crest, we'll spend the next few chapters focused on Spark, his backstory, his interests, and how Tommy responds to the new training regime. I can't wait to hear your thoughts in the comments, everyone! Thank you again to you wonderful readers and voters!

Part 17: Spark Plug

The beautiful, slightly haunting melody of Crest’s piano faded as the show returned from commercial. In Crest’s place on the interview couch was Spark. Like Crest before him, Spark was dressed in a nicely fitting suit vest and shirt, but sported his favorite leather jacket, along with tight, dark jeans and stylish boots. His hair was short and curled, his beard freshly trimmed. He was camera ready.



“Welcome to our next Crew member, Fausto Reyes!” Laney greeted. “Or would you prefer Spark?”

He thought for a moment, scratching his chin. “Spark, I think. It's what the viewers are used to hearing, right?”

“Spark it is! Well, welcome Spark! We are so happy to have you here on the program!” Laney beamed at her smiling guest. “We’ve got just a few questions, and I know everyone is looking forward to hearing your answers!”

“Fire away, Laney!” Spark’s slight accent poked through with his excitement.

“If you don’t mind me saying, you have a reputation among the fans as being a bit of a golden retriever. Lots of energy on camera. Is that true off camera as well?”

Spark laughed, a loud smiling sound. “It is! Luke and the others often have to remind me to sit still! I can’t help it, I just have too much energy!” As he said this, his left leg bounced up and down slightly.

“It’s quite different compared to Crest’s quieter, calmer demeanor. It sounds like that could cause a bit of conflict, but you all seem to get along so well. What is your secret?” Laney asked.

Spark scratched his chin again. “I guess we are all just working towards the same goals, so it's harder to not get along. Besides, life is too short to be angry all the time.”

“True enough!” Laney smiled each time Spark answered. “So, let’s get to know Spark a bit better. You were born in Arizona, correct?”

Spark nodded. “My family is originally from Peru, but by the time I came around, my parents had immigrated to a small town outside of Phoenix.”

“And is it safe to assume that your parents gave you your love of cooking?”

“Yes! My parents didn’t have much when they left Peru, but Mamá brought her most prized possession: a cookie tin full of her mother’s and grandmother’s recipe cards. And she made sure I learned every single one.”

“And that’s what made you want to become a chef?”

“Yes! Before I could even talk, I was learning to cook. It's always been a part of me. And my parents were very supportive of me. They helped me get the loan for my catering business when I moved here. And when Mamá passed on, cooking has become my way to honor her.”

“And your father?”

“After Mamá died, he went back to Peru. We still talk occasionally, but… Her passing was hard on him.” For the first time during the interview, Spark’s smile faded.

Laney nodded. “You ran a successful catering company here in LA for quite a few years. So how did you go from well known caterer to electrician and TV personality?”

Spark’s smile returned. “Well, you’ve met Luke. He can be quite persuasive.”

“So he just asked? That’s all it took?”

Spark shook his head but continued to smile. “Yes and no. Luke was… persistent… to say th least. But he was a good sport about it. He kept hiring me for any event he had, and got to know me. We had a good working relationship when all was said and done. I had no real experience with any home improvement, but he assured me that I could learn and even helped me get through my electrician training and certification. And, at the end of the day, he offered more stability and guaranteed work than I was getting, even with a successful catering business.”

“That makes sense.”

“But truly? It was Crest who convinced me to join with Luke.”

Laney leaned in, excited. “Really?”

Spark nodded with satisfaction. “Really.”

—--

When Luke checked on his slaves, he was disappointed. Sitting at Tommy’s feet was the plug. Tommy was whining and shouting, desperately trying to lower himself back onto it, but the ropes pulling his wrists up offered no slack to do so. He looked up at his Master and cried out.

“Oh, Tommy… I think you secretly want more punishment.” He crouched down and guided the plug back in, with a bit more force than was strictly necessary. “Well, maybe not so secretly.” He rubbed his hand over Tommy’s prickly head. “In that case, I think it’s time to adjust your training. And I know the perfect training partner…”

—--

The next day, Luke collected Tommy from his cell, where he’d been stashed, back in his leather straitjacket and leg cuffs. He’d let Tommy wallow in his failure, and build up the anticipation of his next phase of training, the lingering threat and promise of more punishment.

When Luke opened the cell, it was not Crest behind him, but Spark, the larger man, completely naked save for his yellow cage and yellow trimmed collar. Tommy huffed out muffled confusion from behind his muzzle.

Luke marched Tommy and Spark to the platform in the middle of the room. “Don’t worry, Tommy. You and Crest are still bonded. He’s going to remain caged the same as you until you are done with your training, however long that takes. But Crest isn’t the only member of my Crew. And given your obvious desire for harsher punishment, it only makes sense to start training with Spark.”

Luke massaged his bulkier slave. “Spark here is a glutton for punishment. He may not look it, given his big puppy dog energy, but he loves pain. And since you clearly want more punishment, he’s here to help us.”

Luke gathered a large assortment of items from Spark’s golden hued alcove. Then he turned to Tommy. “Care to take a guess why he’s called Spark? Why he’s my expert electrician?”

Luke held a small wand-like item, a black and yellow device, up to Tommy’s face. He held down a button on the handle and a small electrical spark appeared at the yellow tip. “Custom ordered just for Spark.” Luke said as he aimed it down at Tommy’s thigh and quickly pressed it against the smaller man’s skin.

“HMMMMF!” Tommy cried as the jolt connected with his bare skin.

“It’s because he loves a good shock.” Tommy shuddered away from the electro wand. “The sensation and pain drives him wild.”

Luke guided Spark to a nearby bondage bench and had his happy slave bend down on it. He took his time applying yellow ropes to bind his man in place, then silenced his golden slave with a yellow rubber ball gag.

“You’ll get to experience the same pain and exquisite sensation, Tommy. But I thought you might appreciate a demonstration first.” Luke took the yellow electro wand in one hand and large leather paddle in the other and began assaulting Spark’s ass with both.

WHACK! The hard leather connected with Spark’s skin.

ZZP! The sparking prongs connected against the tender flesh and made Spark jump in place. He involuntarily strained against the rope as his body fought the unconscious urge to move away from the painful stimuli.

Luke watched as Tommy winced each time the paddle and prongs connected against Spark’s flesh. But Luke smiled. He’d angled Spark in such a way that Tommy could see the yellow Slave’s expression.

Bliss. The occasional wince and grunt interspersed, but pure ecstasy rested on Spark’s face. It was obviously painful, but Luke wasn’t lying. Spark loved it. And Tommy could see that Spark loved it. Luke watched Tommy watching Spark. Tommy was clearly conflicted as he tried to empathize with Spark’s pain, but was having a hard time reconciling it with the joy he was clearly experiencing.

Soon enough, Luke marched Tommy over to the other side of the bench and bent him down, tying his jacketed arms to the bench and keeping him in place. Tommy’s shaved head was just inches from Spark’s dark curls.

“Brace yourself, Tommy boy…”

WHACK! Reddened skin bloomed on Tommy’s pale cheek and Tommy shrieked into his muzzle.

ZZP! The yellow electro tip pinched against the pained skin and Tommy shuddered. Luke raised an eyebrow. No screaming. Interesting.

He continued, fixing Tommy with an appropriate punishment for his failure to follow orders.

WHACK!

ZZP!

WHACK!

ZZP!

WHACK!

“How you holding up, Tommy boi? Think you can hang with Spark?” Luke paused and leaned down over his boy, caressing Tommy’s head. He wiped the tears away from his turned face. “Ssshhh, Tommy. You’re taking your punishment well. Better than I expected…”

A final zap and Luke set the wand and paddle down.

But he wasn’t done.

He collected yet more electric items from Spark’s alcove and returned to his bent slaves. He placed the item in front of Tommy’s line of sight. It was another plug, but this one had wires sticking out of the end. The wirings connected to a small black box.

“You still need to practice getting your backside ready. And it is a chance for you to earn some redemption. Your job is to keep this inside until dinnertime.”

With that warning, the plug was inserted and the black box turned on and programmed. Immediate vibration and sensations affected Tommy, who could not keep his eyes focused. Luke took some yellow duct tape and taped the box to Tommy’s thigh. He then repeated the process with Spark, leaving both slaves plugged and stimulated.

“That plug is going to send its little shocks periodically. Enjoy. And keep. It. In.”

He let his hands wander against both of his slaves’ backs. “If you can follow my simple instructions, I think I can convince Spark here to prepare an extra plate at dinner. Unless you’d like to keep eating the prisoner gruel?” Tommy, unfocused as the plug was making him, managed to shake his head. “Then you know what to do.” He leaned in and kissed Spark’s ball gagged lips. “I turned up your plug’s intensity, just how you like it. I'll be back to let you out in time to get dinner ready.”

He slapped Spark’s and Tommy’s red and sore asses one final time, laughing as both Slaves groaned. “I can’t wait for the two of you to get to know each other better.”

Keeping up with Spark is going to be a step up in intensity after Crest!

As usual, I liked learning about Spark's past. If Tommy is gonna keep earning them these punishments, he'll definitely be a favorite of the electrician.

Ooh the interview with spark is really interesting. That and the punishment scene makes me think spark might be the only one of the group who actually chose this life - though I'll need to wait to see when we get another flashback.

Punishment scenes have been very hot!

These past few chapters have been excellent. Of course Spark is into electro play but it seems Tommy isn't really into it yet. Perhaps we will cycle through the other subs' kinks and find out Tommy is into something else quite different.

I suspect Haze may be into gas masks and Leaf into outdoor bondage, we'll see.

Hehe, I certainly hope that we'll see just how insistent Luke got and how Crest factors in!

Spark's bread amd butter can be a lot to handle, but Thief seems to be managing beautifully!

Tommy's going to be an expert at ALL the fetishes when this is done. Now I'm wondering what everyone else's deepest desires are.

You know when I said Spark and I are fellow Sparky's, this was not what I had in mind. I don't particularly like being shocked Okay maybe a tens unit is fun to play around with a little

Interesting how Tommy is reaching to some electro. Wasn't sure how he would handle everything with all bdsm has to offer but Luke hasn't hit any definite limits yet on poor "Theif". Sounds like he's fitting in very well with the group so far!

More of Spark's story and Tommy' training! I hope everyone enjoys, even if this a smaller chapter! We've got at least one more chapter with Spark, and then Tommy is off to the next. I'll be using the results from the poll for all of Tommy's training, so Haze will be up next, and we'll save Leaf for last! Don't forget to leave a comment! I enjoy every single one, so please share your thoughts and ideas!


Part 18: Catalyst

“How did Crest manage to convince you to join up with Luke and everyone else?” Laney pressed.

“Well, there’s a lot of similarity with how we started. Neither of us were looking to join Luke’s crew in the beginning. He was working on his music career and I had my catering business. But he was able to help me see a different picture of things. The steadier work, the less demanding hours, the chance to still cater events and gatherings. He made the transition possible.”

“And when did this happen?”

Spark smiled. “It was actually my last catering job for Luke and Damian. They were having a dinner party with some network executives and close friends. This was before Crest had officially debuted as a new crew member. So he and Jack, err Haze, were hiding upstairs during the party.”

“Really?”

Spark laughed. “Yes! Crest wasn’t supposed to be seen yet, except by the most important ‘in the know’ people from the network, until his reveal, but Luke felt bad and wanted him to enjoy my food after the party was over. So he and Jack were hanging around out of sight upstairs. I didn’t even know they were there until after the party ended!”

Laney laughed as well. “But why Jack? He’d been part of the Crew from the beginning!”

“That is true.” Spark nodded. “But he hates all the parties and press stuff. So he was avoiding having to rub elbows by hanging out with Crest.”

“Hmm… something to ask him about later…” Laney responded, mostly to herself. “So, after the party, Crest appeared and you two started chatting?”

“More or less. I was cleaning up everything, Luke took me to his office so I could get my check, and then afterwards I ran into Crest and we started talking with Luke about everything. Combined, they were a convincing pair.” He gestured up and down to himself. “Obviously.”

“Clearly! But if you joined so soon after Crest premiered, why did it take so long to officially join?” Laney asked.

“Because I didn’t know anything about construction!” Spark blurted out. “Sorry. Because I needed a lot of training! And the network wanted to save my debut in order to promote the premiere of Beachbound.”

“That makes sense! And I’m sure that Crest appreciated his own time to shine before you officially joined!”

“He’d never admit it, but I’m sure you’re right, Laney!”

—--

Tommy had progressed well with the Spark regime of training. And, he’d managed to follow his orders. Tommy was on his way to belonging. He’d managed to keep the electrified plug in, each time, despite the agonizing stimulation. He was getting better at receiving. Soon, he’d be perfect for Luke and the Crew.

And Luke decided that his slave deserved a reward. Which coincided well with Tommy needing to spend more time and training with Spark. Unlike the other Slaves, whose jobs and duties could be postponed or even ignored as Luke saw fit, Spark’s work in the kitchen required constant work. Which made it difficult to have Spark in the basement for hours on end to train with Tommy.

Hence Tommy’s reward. Time out of the basement.

So, there the three of them were, Master, chef, and slave. In the expansive and well equipped kitchen of Luke’s mansion. Spark was moving about, preparing for lunch. He wore his yellow accented collar and a simple pair of yellow boxers underneath his signature yellow apron, but was otherwise naked. Luke relaxed on one of the stools at the large island, casual in his flannel and leather pants and boots.

Which left Tommy.

Still naked, caged and collared in metal, Tommy lay hogtied on the large island in front of Luke, trussed up like the prized turkey at Thanksgiving dinner. Luke had even gone the extra mile to gag Luke with a small apple, large enough to clog his mouth, but not so big as to strain his jaw. A few rounds of clear tape had been wrapped around his head to keep the apple in and keep it on full display. And like a stuffed turkey dinner, Tommy was likewise stuffed with the stimulating plug, its black box still taped to his thigh.

Like with Crest, Luke had instructed Spark to tell his story to Tommy, so the young slave could continue to understand and appreciate his new life here. Spark was in the middle of his story, expertly managing to tell his tale while also creating a delicious sauce and keeping all his ingredients in the oven from burning.

“Master Luke employed me many times!” Spark said, giving his attention to Tommy as he stirred the saucepan. “He was quite persistent. I did not think much of it. Master Luke was happily married. Is happily married. I thought he was just being nice to a struggling chef!”

“I was…” Luke chimed in. “But that wasn’t all.”

“Of course, Master. But it was Crest who forced your hand.” Spark saw that Tommy was confused by that statement and laughed. “It is entirely Crest’s fault I am here!”

“Not entirely!” Luke retorted. “I was going to take you sooner rather than later, but as you said, Crest forced the issue!”

Spark moved the pan off the heat and let it simmer. He pulled the perfectly seasoned and cooked chickens out of the oven so they too could rest for a moment. He turned to Tommy, who meekly struggled against the cold countertop.

“I was in Master Luke’s office, to collect my check for the night of work. We were chatting. It was a normal thing. It had happened at least five times before. But then, suddenly, the bookcase swung open and a man rushed out, screaming into a muzzle over his head, a trail of rope trailing behind him where it was still knotted around his chest. Crest literally barreled into me where I sat on the couch. Haze was chasing after him.”

“Crest was still being trained.” Luke clarified for Tommy. “In much the same position you’re in now! Haze was meant to keep him contained down in the basement while we were up at the party. But Crest managed to slip out and made a run for it. Right into myself and Spark.”

“Haze managed to grab Crest and pin him. I was so stunned I did not know what to do.” Spark said as he began spooning sauce over the chickens. “And then Master Luke tackled me, and dragged me into the basement.”

“Well, after seeing Crest, and my secret bookshelf, I couldn’t exactly let you leave.” Luke chuckled. “So I had to snatch you up right then and there. A few weeks ahead of my schedule.”

“And there I remained until Crest was finished training. It was a long wait before Master Luke got around to me.”

Luke shrugged. “I like to take my time and go one at a time. I guess I’m old fashioned that way!”

“And here I’ve been ever since. Obviously!” Spark smiled and laughed. “You see, it isn’t so bad, Tommy! I get to cook as much as I want, I get to help people with their homes, I get to work with a good family, and I get to be tied up by the best Master one could want!”

Luke stood and crossed the kitchen to wrap his arms around Spark and kiss his neck. “And I get to abuse you, stress you, cuddle you, love you as much as I want.” Luke growled.

“Thank you, Master Luke.” Spark leaned into his Master’s touch. “But you have to let me go, it’s time for lunch.”

“Fine…” Luke said, but made no move to release his hunky, yellow slave.

He shot a look in Tommy’s direction and saw an interesting expression on his Slave’s face. It was confusion? No, not quite. Scrutiny? Almost. Longing? It couldn’t be…

—--

After Spark’s delicious lunch, Luke left Tommy in the care of Crest and Spark for their afternoon clean up duties, while he retreated into the basement to set up for that night.

There wasn’t space for a permanent St. Andrew’s Cross in the play space, not with the platform, and not with upwards of four slaves playing at the same time. But the Cross was such an invaluable tool, that Luke insisted on having one, even if it meant needing to assemble and disassemble each time they used it.

And that was no easy task. It was a solid wood piece of furniture, sturdy oak with metal bindings, and neatly cut and hinged to fold up for storage, but secure and strong enough to safely support even Haze’s large and impressive frame.

Normally, Luke would have his Grey Slave’s assistance, but Haze was busy collecting the car from the car storage and getting it detailed. Crest and Spark were busy with their jobs and with Tommy. And Leaf was at the office. Not the office just upstairs. Their actual office for Homebound Design. They had a few prospective clients that Leaf was holding preliminary meetings with.

So Luke was left to assemble the Cross alone.

Once anchored to the platform, the Cross was finally ready for Tommy.

That evening, Luke collected Tommy from his chores and led him back downstairs. He freed Tommy of the tape and apple gag, and allowed his famished slave to enjoy his former gag as Luke led him against the Cross.

Luke wound Spark’s yellow ropes around Tommy’s ankles, attaching each to the legs of the Cross, and securely tying them off to the waiting hooks and rings. Tommy was spread wide, but did not fight.

Apple finished, Tommy’s wrists were equally tied off and secured in yellow rope to the upper arms of the Cross. Luke fashioned a spun rope bit gag with the remaining yellow rope and shoved it in Tommy’s mouth, tying it off behind his head, but also circling the long ends of the ropes to either arm of the Cross, forcing Tommy to keep his head stationary.

“Time for the next part of your training, Tommy. Endurance and stamina. How long can you handle the pain and pleasure?”

Luke produced two of those black power boxes and taped one to each thigh. As expected, another, slightly larger, plug was wired and inserted. To the other black box, Luke attached a series of strange yellow tinted squares. Luke applied those wired squares all over Tommy’s torso. Two were stuck onto his abs, two just under his armpits, two more on his sides, and a final two over each nipple.

Luke turned on both boxes and adjusted the power and frequency of the stimulating jolts.

“HUUUHHHGGGGGHHH!” Tommy exclaimed as the first zap connected around his nipples, shuddering from the many electric sensations alighting all over him.

“These will keep you busy until I get back. And of course, the same rules apply. The plug stays in, the pads stay on. Or else!”

Luke grabbed some ear plugs and a roll of yellow tape and approached Tommy. “It’s going to be a quiet, well mostly quiet, night for you, Boi. Spark has the night off from cooking and training. We are all going out to a new restaurant opening tonight. We’ll be quite late. No one will disturb you. Still, it seems only fitting…” Luke crammed the deafening plugs into Tommy’s ears, then wound the tape over Tommy’s eyes and ears, blinding and numbing him to the world.

He’d be sure to check in Tommy when they got home, and spend some time whipping his boi, perhaps for fun, and perhaps as a punishment.

For the moment though, he needed to get ready and join the others. They had a delicious meal waiting for them. Still, he lingered, enjoying his Slave convulse and struggle as another surge of power ran up the wires.

“MMMM HHHHGGGGMMMM MMMMMHHHH!” Tommy called out to no one.

Luke reached out and caressed his slave’s cheek. “You’re close, Tommy. I can feel it. Just need to finish breaking you. And figure out what makes you tick…” He slapped his slave. “What secrets do you still hide…”

He considered it all as he retreated upstairs to change and meet his Crew for a well deserved night out.

Couldn't they have Tommy as the dessert?

I know the theme was electro but I feel like lying on a hard surface face down for so long with a cock cage would be a more painful experience!

Also, I wasn't expecting Spark to be snatched like that! He's really like an adorable big puppy considering the shock (pun unintended) he must have that day.

I know, right! Like he's really upbeat / seemingly happy about the whole situation. Either the involuntary kidnapping ended up showing him a side of himself he really likes, or something happened in training that really made him head over heels.


Also the electro stuff and yellow ropes are hot

It's funny how well he gets along with Crest, considering their crazy first encounter!

Tommy's definitely ("learning" to be) a trooper. Excited to find out what really gets him going.

Training both Spark and Crest at the same time must have taken a lot of Luke's time

So Spark was grabbed early due to a slip up with Crest escaping Haze. I wonder what sort of punishment Haze got for that

Poor Tommy gets to endure the cross and electro while Luke and them go out for a bit. But he really seems to be taking all these new experiences really well so far!

Ooooh an apple gag AND a rope bit gag! Two of my favorites and it's not even Christmas yet!

Spark's definitely a much better actor than Crest, anle to convincingly feed the fake narrative for the interview. The gentle sparky hunk probably had quite a rough time being locked away and not getting any chance for affection while Crest was being broken - his training might even have been very quick depending on how desperate he was for attention!
