I lay between my wife Gina's legs tonguing her ass to her third orgasm of the night. Once she climaxed she rolled over and kept my face right by her pussy.

?You're such a good boy drippy, you know that don't you?? ?Yes Gina. I love you so and am glad I can make you happy.? My first wife had cuckolded me after a twenty year marriage and left me for her lover and ended up marrying him. She left me in a deep hole emotionally, and financially. I was determined my next marriage wouldn't end that way. Gina walked into my life at the moment I was at my lowest. Tall, broad, with long red hair, huge beautiful tits, a great round ass, she was chunky but not fat, a BBW lovers dream and she was my dream come true. Not wanting to lose her and not wanting to waste time, on our second date I confessed my interest in cuckolding and female superiority. She told me she understood and that it wasn't so strange and cock size wasn't everything even though I hadn't mentioned anything about my under endowment. Two weeks went by and she became adept at teasing me and not letting me cum and when I did it was in some humiliating way such as on her feet and licking it off. Once she pulled the car over (she always drove) made me get out and jerk off even though it was night and no one was around I was humiliated and embarrassed but more importantly aroused. Gina with her long red hair and big tits and rubenesque body had me wrapped around her finger and she knew it. I in turn spent hours licking her pussy and ass bringing her to orgasm after orgasm. A month later after a prolonged teasing session of almost two weeks without cumming she acquiesced and I was allowed to shoot my load on her thigh and lick it off. Gina had just returned from the gym and was all sweaty and merely lay on the bed and pulled her leotard aside and made lick her sweaty pussy until she came. Then I was ordered to lay next to her while she put her arms over her head my face was even with her armpit. I was made to bask in her sweaty aroma while I furiously humped her leg cumming all over her thigh. It was then I broke down and cried I wanted her so much. She asked me what was wrong and I told her that I wanted to marry her, I scooted off the bed, went to my desk and came back with a piece of paper and handed it to her. ?What's this honey?? Gina said, as she lay back and I watched her gorgeous tits flop around. ?It's a prenuptial agreement. I don't want our marriage to end like my last one.? She put up her finger to shush me as she read. It was not the standard agreement. It said that upon our marriage I would sign EVERYTHING I owned over to Gina. Houses, vacation homes, cars, boats, stocks, she would control all the money, checking accounts etc. The only caveat was that she had to 'date? other men and have sex with them. She would also control everything about me from what I wore to my sex life. I on the other hand had little rights, if I so much as displeased Gina or she didn't like the way things were going she was free to leave and all property and money would revert to me and she would be free to leave the marriage. She finished reading, smiled and said, ?Well that seems perfectly acceptable to me.? The wedding went off without a hitch. It was the typical wedding and reception, but the honeymoon was certainly not traditional. I spent most of the week on my knees licking Gina's pussy and ass bringing her to multiple orgasms a night. I on the other hand was locked in a CB300 and the key hung around her anklet. When we returned home I became her slave, houseboy, but there was still no sign of another man and because of her ever increasing dominance over me, I hesitated in bringing it up.

Gina delighted in being served and in finding a myriad of ways to humiliate me and have fun with me. She would make me wear pink tights, and fuzzy pink slippers around the house with a t-shirt that was way too small for me that read ?cuckold? across the front. I craved making love to her big body and loved the time I spent on my knees between her fleshy thighs licking her pussy and ass. I knew that everything she did was not out of cruelty but out of love and a desire to make our marriage what we both knew it was meant to be. I cooked, cleaned, did laundry, yard work all while Gina lay sprawled on the couch watching movies or chatting on the phone with her girlfriends. She would go to the gym one or two times a week and delighted in teasing me with her indulgence in my leotard fetish. She would come home all sweaty wearing no bra and tell me if I wanted to indulge my fantasy of feeling her up in a leotard with no bra I had to take all that went with that and that meant her being sweaty and stinky and I loved it! I would kneel and suck her toes and kiss her sweaty feet knowing that I would soon be licking her sweaty pussy. Gina worked for a large pharmaceutical company where she was in charge of their billing. About a month after our return she came home one night all smiles and told me she may have found ?our guy? as she put it. I asked her to elaborate and she told me that a software salesman named Cristian had visited the office trying to get her to buy new billing software and said it was obvious that he was hitting on her. My mind went in a million directions and she said that he had come out and asked her if she was married and she told him yes, but that we had a 'special marriage.? She said he told her he'd be in touch and they had lunch scheduled for the next afternoon to discuss her buying software, but I was hoping it was more about hardware! That night is spent a good two hours between Gina's fleshy thighs bringing her to orgasm after orgasm, until finally as I knelt there licking her thinking of her and another man I came all over the pillow I was kneeling on as I licked her to her last orgasm without so much as touching my cock.

I awoke the next morning to find Gina gone to work and a note on the kitchen table that read simply, ?Paolo's at six for our anniversary dinner.? I had forgotten that today was our one year wedding anniversary and I rushed to the mall to get Gina a present on my meager allowance she gave me. I picked out a beautiful anklet and rushed home to wrap it, finish my chores and get to the restaurant on time. Since Gina didn't allow me to drive our only car (her choice) I had to either walk or take the bus. The bus it was and I arrived at the restaurant just as I spotted Gina getting out of our car. She looked ravenous. Her long red hair flowed over her shoulders and her full breasts bounced in a gorgeous low cut black dress with a plunging neckline. The dress came to her mid thigh showing off her gorgeous legs which were encased in black thigh highs all set off by black pumps. She waltzed up to me and gave me a hug and a peck on the cheek. We sat at our favorite table in the back where it was quite and secluded. I faced the wall; Gina faced the rest of the restaurant and the front door. I kept noticing her looking over my shoulder towards the door. I gave her the anklet I bought for her and she smirked and said, ?Isn't that sweet, my ?little? husband whose cock drips all over while he licks my pussy and then comes without being touched giving me an anklet.? I was mortified and embarrassed, my cock did drip pre-cum when I got excited and Gina had taking to calling me drippy as a pet name and said it excited her that I could cum just by licking her pussy.

As we were eating I noticed her smile and wave towards the door. I turned to see a man approaching our table. He was more than a man really, he was a hunk. Gina said, ?Oh it's Cristian!? I was shocked and surprised; he was black, stood at least six foot three, with a shaved head and was ripped. I felt butterflies in my stomach. Gina had never been a fan of black guys and when she told me she thought she found ?our guy? I assumed he was white and never expected the physical specimen in front of me. He approached the table, kissed Gina's hand and pulled up a chair and sat down. ?I hope I'm not interrupting, but you did say to meet you here at 6:15 right?? Gina fawned and her hand fell to her cleavage. ?Oh you're not interrupting at all! My husband was just giving me this lovely anklet as an anniversary present. Oh how rude of me, Cristian this is my husband Steven, Steven this is Cristian.? I reached out my hand to shake his and my tiny white disappeared into his massive black one. He squeezed it and I must have flinched. ?Oh didn't mean to hurt you.? Were his first words to me, as Gina chuckled. ?Oh you didn't hurt me it's just that you have a strong handshake sir.? I couldn't think of anything else to say, how pathetic was I? ?Steven let me get right to the point. Gina told me about your and her 'special relationship? and let me say I am pleased that there are men out there like you who know what they want and aren't afraid to ask for it. Now Gina and I have spoken and I've tentatively agreed to become her lover and cuckold you as your prenuptial instructed. But and this is a very big but; I have some conditions before I go into this. Now if you're acceptable to them then we can proceed, but if not, I'll get up and walk out of here and you'll never see me again. Is that clear?? ?Yes sir.? It was a weird response and I have no idea where it came from, but his authoritative manner made me call him sir. I also caught a glimpse from Gina, a glimpse I knew all too well. The glimpse said you better damn well agree or your life will be a living hell. ?Good and I'm glad you see fit to call me sir, shows we're getting off on the right foot. Now here are my conditions. I will be available to Gina as her lover; you will serve us in ANY way we see fit with NO questions asked. When I am at Gina's house you will sleep in either the spare room Gina has yet to set up for you or at the foot of the bed. You will work to support us. Gina is quitting her job as of tomorrow and you will need to make sure we have enough money for the things we want. Gina tells me you have quite a bit set aside from an inheritance and as the money is hers to use as she sees fit she may or may not decide to use it. Now if that means getting a second job then you'll do it. You will serve both of us sexually and you will come to learn that our pleasure is your first priority. You will be allowed to cum when and how we say. When I am not at Gina's house she will be in charge of you as she is now, and you will resume your 'married life? as she sees fit. I live only thirty minutes away so I will be spending a great deal of time at Gina's and I expect you will go through a long range of emotions from jealousy to arousal to anger. But that's not mine or Gina's problem, this is something you wanted, so you need to deal with it.? And with that he was done. He then picked up MY glass of wine and toasted Gina and drank it down. My throat was dry and my stomach had butterflies like I had never experienced, I was sweating and aroused all at the same time. It lasted for only a few seconds but it felt like eternity. He was so controlling the way he had said, ?Gina's house? not your house which technically it wasn't my house it was Gina's but I had never heard anyone else say it that way. I heard my voice croak out. ?Those terms are perfectly acceptable sir. I love Gina with all my heart and soul and wish to do anything to please her and make her life happy.? There. It was out in the open and I had said it and there was no turning back.

Gina smiled and said, ?Excellent drippy!? I could feel my face turning crimson. At the same time I was unbelievably aroused.

?That's okay,? Cristian said, ?Gina told me of her pet name for you and I must say I admire it and think it fitting so we'll stick with that for now.? He stood and handed Gina a note, turned and left the restaurant. She unfolded the note, read it and smiled. ?What does it say?? I asked. ?It says that Cristian was pretty sure you'd agree to all his terms and conditions and that he took the liberty of renting a hotel room across the street and I'm to meet him there in a half an hour.? ?You're to meet him? But what about me? What about our anniversary?? I was stammering like a little school girl. Gina mocked me. ?What about me? Blah blah blah, you little selfish baby! This isn't about you. It's about me and my lover having our first night together. Now I know our pre-nuptial said you'd be there and you will drippy but tonight is a special night. It's our first night together and as we consecrate our relationship both Cristian and I felt it would be best if we were to do it alone. Plus it will give us time to talk about your future and what we have planned for you.? ?But I thought we'd spend our anniversary together.? I felt tears welling in my eyes. ?Well you thought wrong!? She took an envelope out of her purse and handed it to me.

?What's this?? ?This is for you to open once I leave. It's a list of instructions that I want you to follow to the letter by the time I get home in the morning. I've ordered some furniture to be delivered and left in the garage. Read the rest of the note and I'll see you in the morning drippy.? And with that she was up and gone to meet her lover. I sat there for several moments in disbelief before I opened the envelope and read the letter: Drippy You are to go to Home Depot and buy a gallon of paint. There is a paint chip in the envelope that is the color I want. You are to then go home, move everything out of the spare room, paint it and assemble the furniture I had delivered in the garage. Once that is done, you'll go to my bedroom, and put on fresh satin sheets as I'm sure I'll be tired and want to sleep when I get home in the morning. Next to my dressing table you'll find a bag with an outfit in it. Before I come home in the morning I want you showered and all the hair shaved from your body. I want you to put the outfit on and be waiting for me in the living room. I should be home around 9am unless I get sidetracked! Love? Gina. I reached into the envelope and withdrew the paint chip. It was pink! Pepto Bismol pink! I had no idea what she had in mind but I had to assume from earlier conversations that the spare room was now to be my room. I paid the check, walked to Home Depot looking across the street to the hotel where my wife and her new lover were consummating their new relationship.

Arriving home I got task, removed all the furniture from the spare room. Painted it pink and proceeded to go the garage to unpack, assemble and move the new furniture into my new room. Three hours later the room was all set up. At the center of the room was a pink canopied bed with a matching pink bedspread and pillows that had princess spelled out across them. A pink dresser and night stand with stenciled pictures of Tinkerbelle and Strawberry Shortcake on the sides graced the rest of the room. It was all very feminine and humiliating. In a box with the furniture was a small package from Gina with note that read: thought this would look good on your dresser! I pulled out an 8x10 framed picture of Cristian and Gina in very provocative and romantic pose. I placed the picture on my new dresser and went to Gina's room to retrieve the outfit she mentioned in her letter. After changing the sheets and putting the black satin sheets on the bed I pulled the package out. Inside I found a t-shirt with the following on it: W.I.M.P written across the chest area and underneath that it read: White Inferior Mini Penis. A pair of pink tights and pink satin shorts fell out of the bag along with a pair of pink fuzzy slippers. I felt myself tearing up but knew deep down inside I had put myself right where I was by asking Gina to cuckold me. Inside I knew that as humiliating as this was it was still very erotic which was evident by my dripping cock. It was very late and I lay there on the floor next to my mistress's bed and drifted off to sleep. I awoke with the sounds of birds chirping, looked at the clock and realized it was almost 9 o?clock and Gina would be home soon. I rushed to the bathroom, hopped in the shower and began the task of shaving all the hair from my body as instructed. When I was finished I put on my new outfit and looked at myself in the mirror. I was humiliated, embarrassed, emasculated and turned on all at the same time. I heard Gina's car pull into the driveway and ran to meet her in the living room wondering what was in store for me. Controlling cuckolding wife?part 2 by cuckytoher That morning I spent an hour on my knees between my buxom wife's thighs licking Cristian's cum from her pussy while she regaled me with their exploits from the night before. True to form I was dripping pre cum all over the pillow I knelt on and at one point in the story I could hold back no more and I shot my load with so much as a touch to my tiny cock. Gina laughed and stretched out on the bed, her glorious ample form above me. Finally she sat up and told me that she had called her boss before coming home and told her that she was quitting and that I would be in later in the day to pick up her things. She told me to strip and then proceeded to dress me to go to her office. I looked like Hank Azaria in the movie the Birdcage (one of Gina's favorites). I had on pantyhose, a hot pink flowery top, Daisy Duke shorts, shimmery pink lipstick, nail and toe polish and a red wig. She told me I needed to present myself to her boss in this manner and speak in a very feminine way. I protested and she laughed and touched my cock. ?You remember that pre nup in the desk drawer? Well I've fulfilled my part and now it's turn for you to start fulfilling yours!?

?Yes Gina.? I muttered. I left the house totally embarrassed and emasculated while Gina crawled back between her satin sheets. I took the bus to Gina's office and got laughs and catcalls all the way. When I arrived at Gina's office I went the receptionist who I had met at company functions and stammered, ?Huh hello, I'm here to see Sandra please.?

She snickered, ?Sandra's been expecting you.? I made my way to the private elevator that went to Sandra and Gina's offices. I was thankful that it was late on a Friday afternoon and it appeared many people had left for the day. The elevator doors opened and I sashayed down the hall and knocked on Sandra's door. Sandra is a big woman too, tall, heavy, and thick in the hips with long jet black hair and a penchant for short dresses and plenty of cleavage.

?Come in.? Sandra said. I opened the door and she burst out laughing. I felt my face go crimson. ?Hello Sandra, Gina sent me to get her things.? ?I know, she called me earlier today and filled me in. Well I have to say Cristian is a good choice for her to be fucking and by the looks of things you're a good choice for a wimpy cuckold husband.?

My face burned. She had told her everything! Damn! I couldn't believe even Gina would do this to me. But through it all I could feel my cock getting hard and dripping. ?Yes Sandra, could I please go to Gina's office and clean out her desk?? She smiled an evil grin. ?Not before you do some other cleaning. Gina told me how good you lick pussy and I had a little tryst with my black lover before lunch, so why don't you come over here and clean me out?? It was not a question or a request, it was an order and one I knew I must follow. I made my way over and knelt between Sandra's heavy thighs as she spread her legs and showed me her hairy pussy covered in cum. I immediately stuck my tongue out and dug in. I found myself lapping at her pussy like a dog laps at a bowl of milk, except the milk I was drinking was some unknown black man's cum. Sandra moaned hard and loud, pulled my head towards her and ground her pussy into my face. After a half an hour and three orgasms she let me up, stood up and simply said, ?Follow me.? I walked down the hall towards Gina's office getting giggles from the girls, and laughs from the guys and slaps on my butt. Gina's secretary said, ?Gina says she's leaving. Tell us why?? As all the girls and guys in the office gathered round I remembered Gina's instructions. So I struck a very sissy pose and said in a very effeminate voice, ?Gina's found herself a black lover, and she's decided to leave the company and spend more time with him. She's also decided that I am to be her sissy slave and househusband to serve her and Cristian.? There I had said it and got it out in the open. They all laughed and clapped. I was a beaten man and don't think I've ever been so embarrassed in all my life.

I cleaned out Gina's office, made my way back to the bus stop balancing two huge boxes under each arm and a bag on my shoulder. I thought about what I had been forced to endure thus far into my cuckolding still smelling Sandra and her lover's juice on my face. Upon returning home I spotted Cristian's Jaguar parked in the driveway. As I walked into the house burdened down with all my packages Cristian was sprawled in the recliner in the living room watching ESPN and he roared when he saw me. ?Well looky here, it looks like Gina wasted no time putting you in your place. Damn! That girl is cruel. Did she make you go out in public like that?? ?Yes sir, hello sir, I had to go to her office and pick up her things. Where's Gina sir?? ?Oh she's still sleeping, so I thought I'd wait for you to get home and thought it would be a good time for you and I to get more acquainted on a ?personal? basis if you know what I mean.? Cristian was already pulling his cock out of his Bermuda short and holding it in his hand. ?Now why don't you get your pretty pink lips over her and wrap them around this cock and we'll see if you can suck cock as good as you can eat pussy.? I have to admit my first look at Cristian's cock amazed me. It wasn't 9 inches long like some Mandingo warrior, it was about seven inches but it was as thick as a large cucumber. I knelt and took it in my hand and immediately felt the heat and throbbing as it came to life. Cristian looked down at me, ?Well go ahead, it's not going to suck itself!? I opened my mouth and took his cock inside. I sucked and licked and found myself lost in worshiping my wife's lover's cock. His massive black hand held the back of my head and slowly guided me on and off his cock. Suddenly I heard a high pitched laugh that I knew was Gina's coming from the bedroom door.

?Well isn't that cute!! My little drippy sucking on my lover's cock!? Cristian pushed me aside and stood as Gina came to him and the two embraced and exchanged a passionate kiss. I knelt there, Cristian's cock dangling in my face, Gina's half naked body arousing me and I did what any good cuckold would do, I put Cristian's cock right back in my mouth and went back to work. They both chuckled as Gina took him by the hand and led him to the bedroom. From the doorway she stopped, turned and looked at me and said: ?Well don't just kneel there drippy we're going to need some help in here!? ?Yes ma?am.? It was all I could think of to say. I jumped to my feet and ran into the bedroom with them. I must confess watching them stand there naked caressing each other was one of the true erotic moments of my life. Watching the contrast in color mesmerized me. Her pale white skin and bright red hair against his dark mahogany body was incredible. As she ran her hands down his back and over his ass cheeks I spotted her bright red fingernails on his ass and it was unbelievable. In moments they were both naked and on the bed. Cristian laid on his back his legs spread, Gina was on her knees between his legs sucking his cock and I immediately got on the bed and began licking her ass. I was wild with excitement and the more I licked, the more she sucked his cock. After what seemed like an eternity, Cristian rolled Gina over on all fours and began fucking her furiously. As I had done with Gina, I immediately took my place behind Cristian began to lick his ass. ?Your pussy husband is licking my ass while I fuck you, can you believe it?? ?That's my good drippy.? Gina said, before going back to enjoying her fucking. Finally I heard Gina making noises that I knew meant she was going to cum and cum hard. Cristian grabbed her ample hips and slammed his cock in and out of her while I licked his ass with all I had. In one fell swoop, he pulled her into him and she yelled out that she was cumming as Cristian told her the same thing. I felt both of them convulsing on the bed. When they were finished, both collapsed on the bed. Gina smiled up at me and said, ?You need to get to work drippy, there's a lot of clean up to do here.? Obediently I lowered my head and lapped her pussy. The taste was sweet with a mix of her juices and his. When I was finished, Cristian took his cock in his hand and waved it at me. I went straight to it and licked, sucked and cleaned his cock and balls.

Gina ordered me to stand up and spread my legs by the side of the bed. ?Watch this.? She said to Cristian. I stood there and she began fondling my balls. ?Drippy here can cum without me even touching his cock.? She no sooner had the words out of her mouth and I shot my load all over her arm. They both roared with laughter as Gina said, ?Ah drippy now there's even more to clean up.? I knelt and licked her arm knowing that our marriage was going to last and be a happy one! Controlling cuckolding wife?part 3 by cuckytoher After that first night I knew I had made the right decision marrying Gina. Our lives changed dramatically after Cristian became Gina's lover. Some nights I was allowed to sleep with Gina and we took on the picture of a perfect married couple. Other nights Cristian would stay over and I was relegated to 'drippy's room? as Gina and Cristian would come to call it. On those nights, I would slip between the sheets of my pink canopy bed, usually dressed in pantyhose or a pink baby doll, the lock on my chastity device clicking as I tossed and turned listening to the strains of my wife being pleasured by another man. It was always a mystery to me whether I would be allowed the pleasure to sleep with my wife or not and the mystery kept me in a constant state of excitement and arousal. The other night was a perfect example. Cristian was out of town on business and I was kneeling on the floor giving Gina a pedicure while she watched a movie when the phone rang. It was Cristian and he said he was back in town early and wanted to know if Gina was up for a quickie. Gina squealed like a little school girl. ?Drippy that was Cristian and he's back in town early and wants a quickie! That means we're all going to cum tonight. Because you've been such a good boy I asked him for permission to cum tonight since he was out of town, but now that he's back we're all gonna cum!! Come on drippy you need to get me ready!? After showering and moisturizing Gina's voluptuous body, and cleaning myself up, I donned my pink baby doll with no panties and my chastity device. Cristian arrived at the house and he and Gina shared a long kiss and embrace. I prepared drinks while they made their way to the living room. As I entered the living room and served them their drinks, I immediately took my place between Cristian's legs and began to rub his crotch.

?So nice to see you sir, I'm so glad you could come by and please Gina and let me say thank you for allowing me to cum tonight!? I slowly unzipped his pants and withdrew his huge cock.

Gina was on her knees naked, her ass in my face as Cristian played with her pussy I watched the two of them kiss and almost exploded. I took his cock in my mouth and slowly brought him hard. Gina moaned as he pulled and tugged on her nipples, sucking and biting them. As Cristian grew harder and harder in my mouth I could hear Gina breathing deeper and finally she pushed my head out of the way and impaled herself on his wet hard cock. Cristian held his fingers out and I sucked them clean of Gina's hot juices. As Gina rode Cristian's cock up and down I began licking her ass and listening to her moan. I licked alternately between Gina's ass and Cristian's balls both of them working up to a furious pace. Finally, Cristian flipped her over on her back and impaled her with his cock. I took my place behind Cristian licking his ass and Gina's pussy.

It was then that I saw it. The sign that always meant Gina was so totally aroused that she was out of her body; the toe curl. Throughout our relationship I had noticed it and she had told me about it. It was an involuntary reaction to pleasure, not planned or contrived, it just happened. Whenever Gina was in ecstasy her toes curled. It was just as natural as her breathing and I was witnessing it as I spied her toes curl every time Cristian thrust inside her. She yelled out that she was going to cum and I felt her tense up as Cristian kept pounding her. His stamina was incredible! How he could continue to fuck this beautiful rubenesque woman while she was cumming without cumming himself was a mystery to me. As her orgasm subsided and her breath returned to normal, Cristian pulled his cum soaked black cock out of Gina's pussy and shot his load. It was a sight to behold, this massive black organ spewing hot, white, milky streams of cum all over Gina's breasts, stomach, and pussy. It seemed like he shot forever. Without being told, I knew what I had to do and as I was about to start licking the cum off of Gina, she stopped me.

?I'm going to unlock your little cock drippy!? ?Oh thank you so much Gina!? She unlocked the clear plastic tube and slid the tube off my tiny four inch hard shaft. ?You may continue, but save my pussy for last.? Gina and Cristian kissed, tongues entwining her toes once again curling. I licked the streams of cum from her breasts moving my way down to her luscious plump belly, and I was in heaven. Finally I was done with her tits and belly and ever so gently began licking the outer folds of her pussy lips hearing her moan. She spread her legs wide and said, ?Watch this.? I licked furiously lapping all of Cristian's cum from her well fucked pussy feeling her pleasure and orgasm mounting. I licked deeper and faster tasting both of their juices and swallowing every drop. She grabbed my head and pulled me into her, her hips undulating as her orgasm built. My cock was dripping badly now and I knew what she wanted Cristian to watch. As her orgasm built and she finally started to cum humping my face, I shot my load all over the pillow I had been kneeling on without so much as a touch to my cock. I shuddered feeling myself growing weak and dizzy from the orgasm. Gina lay back on the bed, and pointed to my pillow. ?Look drippy came all over his pillow without even being touched!!? Her and Cristian laughed out loud as they lay like a king and queen above me on the bed as I knelt there as their humble servant.
