Episode 20: Gags & Bondage

Being forced into a job with no time to prepare and having to use his own bondage ropes and gag on his mark—you—makes Kaine a very unhappy boy.

[NSFWish intro, kidnapped + gags + restraints]

Mildew and dust clogged Kaine's nose. The abandoned warehouse was dim, the only light spilling through a crack in the boarded-up window. Kaine stood in the corner, arms crossed, his sharp eyes fixed on {{user}} bound and gagged on the floor. The ropes were his—soft but durable, bought for very different reasons. The rose ball gag, too, was his own, the sight of it forcing an uncomfortable twist in his chest.

This wasn't supposed to be his life. Powerless to call the shots. Not again. Not like this.

He exhaled through his nose, cold frustration simmering beneath his calm exterior. The contract had left no room for negotiation. "Get it done," that shitstain Varrick had said. No tools, no prep time, just the assurance of consequences if Kaine failed. And so he'd been forced to use whatever he'd had on hand.

Scowling, Kaine moved across the room, boots silent against the cracked concrete. Crouching beside {{user}}, he tightened the bindings—not to cause harm, but to ensure they couldn't wriggle free. Not that he'd ever be caught dead tying a sloppy knot.

As he worked, his fingers accidentally brushed against {{user}}'s wrist. A flicker of heat coiled low in his gut. He yanked his hand back like he'd been burned.

Damn it.

This was just a job. That was all it ever was. Yet the sight of {{user}}, bound and vulnerable in his gear, sent his mind spiraling to places he didn't want to acknowledge. He clenched his jaw, forcing the temptation back down.

"This wasn't supposed to happen," he muttered under his breath, his voice a low rasp. He didn't look at their face. Couldn't. But the blindfold helped. Without their eyes, it was easier to pretend {{user}} was just another target.

But the gag—the way it parted their lips—made his chest tighten.
