Chapter Location

Mistress Amanda

The location was the other major effort in the weeks of preparation. I had at one time talked with a Dominant who practiced in the 60's. She had told of one estate that was owned by a couple that were fully committed to B&D and D&S. They had a fully equipped play area and lots of space. Checking revealed that the husband had passed away several years ago but the lady still lived there in seclusion.

I tried calling. It was hard to even get a number and turned out to be a waste of time as calls were screened and I was not on the pre-approved list. I finally wrote a letter, which I labeled personal. Several days later I got a phone call and the voice asked me to hold for Mrs. Westover.

She came on the line and the greeting could not have been friendlier. “Amanda I love the videos.” We talked and I outlined the purpose of my call. She was more willing than I could have hoped and I was invited for a tour. The Westover's made their money in the Texas oil boom of the 50's. They moved west and built a house, which was a copy of the Annenberg home. They kept a low profile and a description of there home has not appeared in the press. The similar Annenberg home was described in an article in the Washington Post.

“There -- in a 32,000-square-foot house surrounded by a private, nine-hole golf course and protected by armed security guards and a six-foot-high, barbed-wire-topped anchor fence -- Westover welcomed world leaders and Hollywood luminaries as his guests. Prince Charles, serving in the Royal Navy, stopped in for a visit on shore leave from his ship, the HMS Jupiter. Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip came for lunch. Nixon drafted programs and tape-recorded radio address from Sunnylands. In February 1975, six months after resigning in disgrace, the former president was an Westover houseguest after his hospitalization for phlebitis. Frank Sinatra almost always attended the annual Sunnylands New Year's Eve party. Ronald and Nancy Reagan, Gerald R. Ford, Nelson A. Rockefeller, George H.W. Bush, Julie Eisenhower and Bob Hope were also regulars.

A corps of 50 servants, groundskeepers and guards looked after the comfort and protection of Sunnylands guests. A fleet of white golf carts, each emblazoned with the emblem of a fiery orange Mayan sun god, stood ready to carry them about the exquisitely manicured golf course. Inside the main house reposed the priceless Westover art collection, supplemented by Ming vases, shelves of Stueben crystal and such sculptures as Rodin's Eve, the artist's original casting in 68 inches of dark green bronze. “

It was perfect. Not only was it large well protected but it had a great deal of outdoor space. It's interesting to be naked and bound in private. It's much more of a rush to be outside under the moonlight and even more threatening in the light of day. There was a large bondage playroom that would certainly meet most of my needs. By shipping in smaller equipment everything required would be at hand.

After the tour and an elegant lunch, I asked her requirements for the loan of her home. There were several, none of them monetary.

Mrs. Westover

I was happy to meet and talk with a fellow enthusiast. It will be nice to supply a setting for the reward of such a gallant sailor. My only regret was that I was beyond being an active participant. The mention of a fee was slightly offensive. I did think of several requirements one of which Amanda was able to oblige me with that very afternoon.

Out from storage came an extraordinary piece of leather bondage equipment, my favorite. Made of very soft and thin leather, kid I think, it had many features. I spent nearly an hour being laced in. It binds the legs together, arms behind, nips the waist and supports the neck. There was a hood. When complete; I was immobile lying on a bed and dreaming about past uses. It had been so much fun. I asked that Amanda spin tales along subject lines of my choice and she did a superb job. It was over too quickly but an old body can only take the loss of movement and the forced position of ones limbs for a short period. I once spent all night laced in and loved every second.

I asked to be involved in the session as a passive viewer. Amanda assured me that she would find an active role and we agreed on a week in late September. We spoke of staff and I agreed that we would send most of the staff away. Staying would be servants who had been with me for some time and were used to the ‘old ways'. I summoned George, my head of security, and explained the requirement of privacy and control of all security camera recordings. He assured me of compliance.

Mistress Amanda

I let the girls know and it looked like everything was coming together. Jim even had his boat out of the water on schedule. Diane packed and Ruth sent a private jet to carry us, and all the fourteen pieces of luggage needed to transport some of Castle Diabloica's finest items and the clothing purchased by the girls. Another 6 pieces were filled with my clothing. Diane got one.

I have given specific arrival instructions to each of the stars. They were not to have sex for two weeks before the event. They could bring one maid/makeup person who would know of the events of the week. They were permitted specific clothing and jewelry. As each arrived they were escorted to their bedroom suite.

I arrived at each room as the explored it and before their luggage arrived. I told them to strip and placed them each in handcuffs and ankle chains. I inspected their clothing and purses for contraband. I had them unpack and show me everything in their luggage. I confiscated many items. They were not allowed anything that looked like BDSM gear or a fetish item. They were left with designer clothes for dinners and basic casual wear. The assistants were given uniforms from the mansion inventory. I warned them about future inspections. They were released and allowed to put away clothing. The maids were directed to the servants' quarters.

Ruth

It was frustrating waiting those last two weeks. I knew that I had some glamorous fetish outfits that were waiting, along with the creative control that would come from Mistress Amanda. I was also wondering or hoping that she would allow me to live out several of my fantasies. I went in and out of D&S reverie and the last three days I could hardly focus on anything else. The gym was my only salvation. While we were packing I slipped in a few personal items that I was dying to use.

On arrival, the house and the grounds overwhelmed me. My suite was huge and had a marble bath as well as huge dressing and makeup areas. I was hoping that my special clothing would be in the closet but it held only robes. Choosing an assistant had taken a great deal of thought, but I had finally decided that my regular stylist might work. I told her about the general outline for the week and she had no objections to helping me.

My assistant did not seem to mind being naked and in chains for the unpacking but I am sure she welcomed the freedom and the uniform. She told me later that the room she was in was great and that she had full use of the vast recreation facilities of the home. I had not expected to be so totally controlled but did have confidence that Mistress Amanda knew exactly what she was doing. When you find a professional trust their judgement.

During the early afternoon we all gathered in an informal dining room and I made the critical phone call to Jim. This was, of course, the critical and unknown factor, could we get him to come on such short notice. We had developed a plan that called for me to talk first, then Mistress Amanda and our unnamed host, the owner of the home, if required. The transportation plan was in place and we were ready to nearly kidnap Jim to get him here.

We all were relieved when Jim agreed without a hassle.

Mistress Amanda

I gave a long pre-session talk, safe words, health and limitations, role-playing and rules of personal conduct. I also gave them an overview of the home and limits of their freedom to roam about. The head of security explained the security plan and the extraordinary means that had been taken to ensure that no pictures would be taken to later appear in the tabloids.

Several of the stars asked questions about what was coming and when they would receive their special purchases. I answered none directly but told them how they would perform. I don't think they understood that they were really just beautiful puppets on strings that only I controlled.

They did learn that tonight would be oral sex night and that it was Jim's fantasy. That meant that each star had a role to play with a specific costume. They would find the costume back in their room along with makeup and hairstyle instructions. Some would find lines to memorize and others would have their lines provided on queue cards during session. All this had taken a great deal of preparation and Diane was nearly spent from the effort.

I dismissed them to the workout area to pass the time before the sailor's arrival.
