Stories of Tie Up Games

Wow! A lot has happened since the last time I spoke to my friend Kerry. I’ve been away for a few months working in California.

By way of introduction, Kerry is 27 years old, 5’5” tall with red hair that she always keeps in a pony tail. She has big wide deep blue eyes and light porcelain skin. Kerry has a medium build, big chest, somewhat muscular legs and a nice firm backside.

We met in our favorite bar in south Florida and she gave me quite an update on what has happened to her since we last met.

I’ll let her tell you about it -

Hi guys. At work I’m the director of in store sales and marketing at Mack Michaels Campsite.

For the uninitiated Mack Michaels is a large, privately owned, camping and outdoors super store in south Florida.

It’s owned by the bigger then life Mack Michaels. I say that because Mack, through television commercials featuring himself, has become somewhat of a local celebrity.

I love working with Mack and the management team. They are all very creative and bottom line oriented. The store is very profitable.

The only draw back is that since I work on the sales floor often, I have to dress in a camping theme uniform like all the sales associates. Most of my executive colleagues who work in the back office just dress business casual. For me though it’s olive colored tight shorts, hiking boots and a red Mack Michael Campsite tee shirt. Other than the shorts being a little too short and a little too tight, I don’t mind. It’s better than having to decide what to wear everyday. Lol. Besides I do enjoy it when I know men are staring at my backside! Our little secret! Lol.

Recently Mack called in the management team to discuss a new area in the store he wanted to open. He told us he just invested in a company that makes paracord. Mack felt that it was a good investment since paracord had many practical uses for camping. Paracord, for the uninitiated, is a nylon heavy duty rope, that like I said, has a lot of practical uses for camping as well as hunting and fishing. Everything from securing a tarp or tent to making a firm non slip handle for a walking stick. It comes in hundreds of colors and strengths. Paracord is also used to make bungee cords. Since paracord also has applications beyond camping, like for crafts projects, Mack felt it could increase foot traffic.

Mack brought a number of samples to the meeting. Everyone agreed that this would be a great addition to our line of products. At the time we had only a limited amount of paracord spools and hanks to purchase. Mack was eager to kick off the new product line with one of his famed commercials.

Right in the store we have a full camping scene set up for demonstrations of new products, an area which Mack also uses when he films his commercials. He wanted to introduce the display in the commercial by calling it “Mack Michaels Campsite, your Paracord Headquarters.”

For the commercial Mack wanted the camping scene to feature a clothes line strung using paracord, bungee cords used to secure gear, a walking stick and axes with paracord handles, and a paracord secured tarp.

In the script he would point to each in the commercial while discussing them in his rapid fire salesman’s pitch. He wanted to end the commercial by saying “it can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day!”

Everyone left the meeting enthused that the new paracord area would add to our bottom line.

Mack then asked me if I would stay behind for a minute. He told me that in the commercial the closing line “It can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day,” would have someone in the tent, tied up and gagged with paracord. He asked me as marketing director if I found that to be a good idea and a lighthearted way to end the commercial.

My heart started pounding. Someone tied up and gagged in a commercial. With my secret love of tie up games of course I thought that was a great idea!! I told Mack I was confident the ending would be funny and that the closing line he crafted was very creative.

Mack then threw me a bombshell. “Kerry,” he said. “I know you’d be ideal for that part!” I was kind of shocked. Me tied up and gagged in a television commercial that hundreds of thousands of people would see here in south Florida. I didn’t know if I would want that.

After thinking it over, always wanting to be a team player, and the inner exhibitionist in me that would like the thrill of being tied up on television, I agreed!

The next day we met with Mack’s commercial production team and laid the filming out. I was to be tied up in the big walk in tent in the camping display. The filming would take place the next night after the store closed.

I couldn’t sleep in anticipation. Tied up and gagged in a commercial. For some strange reason the idea of having tens of thousands of people seeing me like this was now starting to turn me on. I was wondering to myself if movie and TV stars who get tied up actually look extra forward to going into the studio on those days.

The night to film finally came. Production people were busy getting everything organized. Mack was reviewing the script with the director. It was quite exciting.

Mack finally took his position and the filming began. Mack was so good at what he did. He flawlessly went through the script where he showed all the uses for paracord.

The director said cut and told Mack that as usual he did a superb job.

The only scene left to shoot was mine.

The director told everyone there would be a 15 minute break while my scene was set up.

One of the assistant directors, Cindi, approached me along with a guy named Mica. She told me Mica was a production assistant and would be the one who would tie me up. I couldn’t have been more pleased! Mica was a hunk. Tall, thin and muscular with dirty blond hair. Mica said it was pretty much up to us how the tying up would go. I suggested using the floor of the tent with my back to one of the walls and my legs out in front of me. Mica thought that was a great idea. We had hanks of all different colored paracord to chose from. We chose red. I was wearing my store outfit. Mica asked me to cross my wrists behind my back. He tied them together. It was not too tight and felt comfortable. He then took another piece of paracord and tied my ankles. My ankles were also not too tightly bound or painfully tied.

I stayed in the tent like that until they were ready for my part. I kept on wondering if being tied up while wearing these tight shorts might get men watching the commercial sexually aroused. I sure hoped so. I may look innocent, but my imagination certainly isn’t!

The break was over and they were ready for me. Mica came into the tent. It was time to gag me. He took a red piece of paracord, placed it between my teeth and made several loops around my head before tying it off behind my neck.

The director was ready for the scene which had Mack standing at the entrance to the tent and saying his line “It can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day.” While Mack delivered that line I could be seen in the background tied up and gagged. The commercial would end with the camera panning in on me with the store information on the screen.

We rehearsed it a couple of times, then Tim Caine the director said we ready to shoot. Mack delivered his line, I was tied up in the background as the camera panned in on me and the scene ended.

I remained tied up and gagged on the floor of the tent while the director, assistant director and Mack were having a conference. They stopped the discussion and came into the tent to speak to me. Tim Caine told me I was doing a great job but they unfortunately needed the ending reshot. Through the gag I asked him why. It seems that in their estimation I wasn’t tied up tight enough to show how durable the paracord is. They also felt the gag was too loose and that the hiking boots I was wearing took the emphasis away from the paracord around my ankles. They also thought maybe I should be tied to a chair instead. They also said it might be good if I struggled a little to show how strong the paracord is.

They told Mica to untie me and take off the gag. I must say he did do a pretty lame job of tying me up. Lol. The paracord was loose and the gag wouldn’t have been very effective if I tried to scream. It was decided that for the reshoot Cindi, the assistant director would tie me up. The rest of the crew and Mack took a 30 minute break.

I was very disappointed that Mica wouldn’t be doing it, but to be tied by both a man and a women in the same night was to me a bonus!

Cindi sent one of the production people to get a camping chair for me to sit on. The chair quickly arrived.

Cindi told the production assistant to join everyone else for the break. I was in the tent alone with Cindi. She told me it was time to tie me up the proper way. I asked her what the proper way was. She told me she used to be a rigger in bondage movies when she first got involved in film when she was in college. I asked her what a rigger was. She told me it was the person who creativity tied people up. From Mica’s lame tie all the way up to a professional. This commercial assignment for me was getting very interesting.

Cindi sat me in the chair. She removed my boots since it was requested for the re-shoot. She put my boots over to the side and started rubbing my feet. “Now doesn’t that feel better?” She said. The way she was playing with my feet was starting to turn me on. She told me she would tie me up bare foot. She said it was conceivable if I was camping that I would relax in the tent without shoes on.

Cindi was I guess what you would call goth. She was thin with long black hair. She had on black lipstick and wore a black corset, floral print high waist tight black pants and rounded toe high heels.

She opened a few packages of black colored paracord. She took the utility knife Mica used to cut smaller lengths and did the same. She then took the knife, pulled the mechanism to tuck the blade back in and placed the knife housing between my teeth. She said prehaps the knife could be left in my mouth until she needed it again. She joked around about how she loses things. It was no joke though. I could tell she was showing control over me by gagging me with the knife housing. I had no objection!

She then told me, like Mica did, to cross by wrists behind me. But unlike Mica she tied them very tight and also very neatly, like you would see in a bondage photo or a movie. The tie was very restricting. Cindi then moved on to my elbows. She cinched a rope around them and drew my elbows in very tightly to the point of where they were touching each other. I was getting extremely turned on. Cindi’s next objective was securing paracord over and under my breasts and looping the rope around my arms. The paracord around my breasts accentuated them and the tie totally immobilized my arms. All that was left were my legs. Cindi gently removed the utility knife housing from between my teeth. I licked my lips. The knife had been sitting there for quite some time. Cindi cut a few more lengths of rope. She then got ready for my legs. I asked her if she was still worried about forgetting where her knife was. She said thank you to me for remembering and volunteering. I opened my mouth and bit on the casing with my teeth to hold it securely in place. I could see this was turning on Cindi, which was exactly the effect I was hoping for. Cindi reached down and crossed my ankles. She made many neat loops with the paracord before tying it off. The rope was very tight and secure. Cindi finished the job by tying my legs just above the kness. The tie up she did on me was amazing. I couldn’t escape if I tried.

I fantasized about going camping alone and being kidnapped by Cindi in the woods and tied up different ways as her prisoner in the tent. I wondered if she had a similar fantasy or perhaps something a little darker and more erotic. I lost sense of time and place. I almost forgot I was in a tent in the store and the crew would be back shortly to finish filming. I looked at Cindi and made a sound through the utility knife casing between my teeth. Cindi asked if I wanted her to remove it. I shook my head yes. Once it was out I garnered enough nerve to ask Cindi for her phone number to keep in touch. To my surprise, without hesitation she said of course and kissed me on the cheek. With that the spell was broken as the crew reassembled to try to finish the commercial.

Everyone agreed that I now looked amazing tied up!

Mack was extremely concerned I might be tied too tight. He asked me if I was too uncomfortable.

I told him not to worry. I was taking one for the team. lol.

Cindi then finished me off with a paracord gag. She asked me to open my mouth. She pulled the paracord around my mouth 4 or 5 times. It was so taught it pushed the corners of my mouth back. I tried to talk but Cindi made the rope cleave so tight it prevented me from uttering a coherent sound. It was an extreme gag for sure!

Tim the director got everyone in place again. Mack stood by the tent entrance and delivered his famous line, “it can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day!” With that I struggled against my bonds. They were so tight I was helpless. I also bit into and moaned through the gag while staring directly at the camera. Tim ended the scene. The commercial filming was now complete.

Cindi untied me. I was tied so tight it took quite a while to release me. After getting my circulation back I got my cell phone and asked her for her number. Cindi said we needed to get together soon. She laughed and said I needed some practice at trying to escape.

I got into my car to leave. As soon as I got into the drivers seat I received my first text from Cindi. Wow!! She sent some pictures of me tied up that she took during the filming.

The commercial was edited over the next week or so and finally shown on TV. To my surprise it was a huge ongoing success!! Foot traffic in the store increased and the paracord display did brisk business.

One morning, a few days after the commercial started to air Mack called me into his office. He told me he was upset and had a bone to pick with me. My heart sunk. What could I have done wrong?

Mack looked me straight in the eyes and said that everyone he knew wanted to know who the girl is that was tied up and gagged in the tent.

He gave me a stern look and said that no one upstages Mack Michael. He gave me a threatening silent stare and then burst out laughing. “A star is born,” he said.

Now I could take that as a joke, or maybe Mack wanted to use the “tied up girl” again in one of his commercials.

I hope so!!

I hope so too!! I hope we get to see it here!!

Kerry New Job - Part 2

If you have not yet read it, please scroll up first and go to- Part 1 to understand the background to this story.

Here is a continuation of Part 1 told in Kerry’s own words:

Hi guys, it’s Kerry! As a result of me being tied up and gagged with paracord in a television commercial that I was featured in for Mack Michaels Campsite, it seems I was becoming quite the local celebrity.

To refresh your memory, I’m the director of marketing and in-store sales at Mack Michaels Campsite, a camping and outdoor superstore in South Florida. The owner of the company, Mack Michaels, decided to make a commercial about the new paracord section in the store.

The commercial was filmed in the large outdoor display area on our sales floor. The display, which looks like a large lush campsite is complete with trees, foleage a tent display, and all the outdoor accessories needed to camp.

Mack was featured in the commercial showing various ways paracord could be used in camping. At the end of the commercial, Mack spoke the line, “it can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day!”

Mack had earlier convinced me to be part of the commercial. In the closing scene the camera panned into the tent revealing me sitting in a camping chair tied up hand and foot as well as gagged with paracord rope. As a result of the commercial sales in general in the store increased with many friends asking Mack who the attractive ”tied up girl” was in the closing scene.

Mack thought that my little scene would just be a fun light-hearted way to end the commercial. He had no idea it would make me such an important on air celebrity for his business!

About a month after that commercial aired Mack had a meeting with his in store survival expert Patrick Jennings and myself. Pat was in charge of providing content for the Mack Michaels Campsite You Tube channel. I always sat in on any meetings that dealt with store marketing.
Patrick wanted to film a segment in the outdoor camping display area about his Top 20 Survival uses for Zip Ties. He told Mack the 20 minute video would cover such topics as zip tie use for trail markers, assisting in shelter making, attaching gear to your pack, using as make shift shoe laces, etc.

Patrick said he would explain each use of zip ties hands on since he has the luxury of a full 20 minute video. He also asked Mack if he could use Eddie Walker, another survival expert who worked in the store to help him demonstrate how zip ties could be used as a campsite restraining device for intruders.

Mack told Patrick he like the idea, but zip ties were not a profitable item in the store, so when he did the 20 tips he wanted them mixed with other products. For example in the segment on securing items to a backpack, Mack wanted to make sure that Patrick used one of the more expensive packs to demonstrate on. This way he could give the zip tie survival tip while also discussing other items in the store.

Patrick was delighted his idea was accepted by Mack. As Patrick walked out of the office, Mack quickly called him back in. He told Patrick he just got an idea. Instead of using Eddie Walker in the zip tie intruder segment he wanted to use me since the paracord commercial was so successful!

I could see Patrick becoming quite irritated although he didn't say anything to Mack. It seems a number of the store employees, while liking and respecting me seemed to be becoming increasingly jealous. As a result of the paracord commercial i was frequently called onto the sales floor from my office to take photos and selfies with customers who requested them. Not to sound too vain, as many of you know I am considered by both men and women to be quite attractive. I'm 5’5” tall with red hair that I always keeps in a tight pony tale. I have big wide deep blue eyes and light porcelain skin. I have a medium build, large chest, some what muscular, but everyone says extremely pretty legs, and a nice backside.

I guess I also have that damsel in distress look to me. Maybe that's why when I was tied up in the paracord commercial it was such a success. I also suspect that is why I'm called out of the office so often by customers for pictures. It's safe to say that many of those customers, although never saying so, must think i looked hot tied up and gagged in the TV spot.

Because of the commercials popularity Mack was even thinking of making posters with a large picture of me in my work outfit of olive colored tight shorts, hiking boots and a red Mack Michaels Campsite t-shirt. On the poster would be the tag line “it can even be used for entertainment when you’re stuck in your tent on a rainy day!” with a smaller picture of myself tied up and gagged with paracoard in the tent.

I was very receptive to the idea of the posters. I told Mack, from a marketing standpoint, I could sit at a table in front of the camping display and autograph the posters giving them away along with store discount coupons and other promotional items.

Back to the business at hand though! Patrick was irritated and I could tell jealous, but if having me in the You Tube video was the price to pay to have it produced, so be it.

Mack told me to stay after Patrick left, reviewed the video idea, and asked if I would be willing to do it. It's no secret guys, if you've read my last story you know that I love being tied up, and the idea of big strong Patrick Jennings restraining her with zip ties on camera was already making me a little hot, not to mention the thought that it would add to my local celebrity.

I told Mack I would do it if it helped the business. Why not gain some brownie points with the boss while doing something I love! lol. Like I said, I'm not very vain, but I do enjoy the idea of being recognized.

Sometime I do think of all the people who watched the paracord commercial and might have gotten a little hot and bothered seeing me tied and gagged. That make me hot!

So, the night to film the video finally came! I was wearing my usually outfit, olive green tight shorts, hiking boots and my Mack Michaels Campsite red t-shirt. We always shot videos and commercials after the store closed.

It was a buzz of activity when we filmed. There were camera, production, lighting people and a director. All very exciting! Mack does everything first class. I read the script in advance so I knew how the segment would work. I must say that Patrick was really a good teacher when it came to survival skills. He was always well prepared and made sure he had everything he needed to make the video successful.

After filming a number of other scenes, It finally came time to film my segment. I was never tied up with zip ties so I was a little nervous. I took my spot standing next to Patrick.

The first part of my segment had him saying- “Hopefully, you’ll never have to, but if necessary, you can restrain someone either on their hands or feet with zip ties. I have Kerry here with me at the campsite to show you how this works. Kerry, I'll stay out of sight. I want you to walk over to the tent, and peak through the opening.” At this point the camera stopped.

The video director then had me take my spot next to the tent entrance. The director said action. I showly turned my back to the camera, did my best backside bend over and looked into the tent entrance. Patrick came into frame snuck up behind me and tightly placed his hand over my mouth and placed his other arm around my waist. Patrick turned us both around to face the camera. He said - “At this point I found the intruder, but still do not know if she has other intruders with her. It is important, as you can see to make sure Kerry doesn't try to alert anyone. To make this first step successful, you must use you hand to place a firm grip around the intruders mouth so no sound comes out. Kerry, please try to scream through my hand.” Patrick had me tightly handgagged. I tried my hardest to scream, but all that would come out was mmmmmmmphhh. I did my best damsel in distress wide eyed look at Patrick.

Patrick continued - “As you can see my hand is making Kerry totally mute, and my arm around her waist is keeping her from trying to escape me. In this scenario we are going to assume that Kerry has partners who are looking to also breach my campsite. With that knowledge, I am going to have to gag her before applying the zip ties. I am going to pull Kerry’s head closer to me so I can release the grip I currently have around her waist. This gives me the opportunity to reach into my pocket to remove a Mack Michaels Campsite bandana. At this point you have to work quickly to prepare the bandana. You can attempt to make it into a triangle with one hand like this then roll it along your pants. Now quickly remove your hand from the intruders mouth, while placing the bandana in the other hand quickly between the intruders teeth. Now use both hands to tightly tie the bandana behind the intruders neck.”

I must say, Patrick knew how to gag someone. I was amazed that he did this with basically one hand!

I played it up for the camera, biting on my gag and showing my teeth. Like the paracord commercial, I'm sure there would be plenty of viewers getting unintentionally turned on by this little scene! We took a quick break and the director told us things were going very well!

We started shooting again. Patrick continued- “Now that we've silenced our intruder it’s time to restrain Kerry with zip ties. I'm going to wrestle her to the ground quickly, always use the element of surprise so the intruder cannot anticipate your next move. Place the intruder face down and sit on their legs. Quickly cross their wrists. Then hold their wrists down with one hand, reach into your pocket, grab a zip tie, and rapidly apply it to their wrists. Make sure it is pulled all the way to make it as tight as possible to give the intruder no chance to escape.” Patrick pulled the black zip tie so tight it immediately immobilized my wrists. He pulled it probably too tight. I'm not a 6’5” male intruder, but a 5’5” female. I guess he was looking for realism, but I was starting to loose the circulation to my wrists!!

Patrick continued with his script - “Now for the intruders legs. First I would recommend removing their shoes and socks. If you need to leave the intruder to get help or search for their partners and the intruder somehow gets up it will be difficult to run away on the forest floor barefoot.” At this point Patrick removed my hiking boots and socks. I was barefoot. Patrick then said- “With the intruders wrists bound, and a gag in their mouth, you are almost home. You can now use both hands to work. Take out another zip tie and secure the intruders ankles. Again, pull it as tight as possible to prevent escape.” Patrick zip tied my crossed ankles. Again, like my wrists and like the gag, the zip tie was so tight I felt myself losing circulation in both my ankles. I was getting very hot. The zip ties were so restricting and so tight they were making me wet. I'm sure the crew was saying “poor Kerry,” little did they know. Add the gag and knowing this was being filmed to be seen by thousands made me even more excited.

Patrick kept up his demonstration - “Now Kerry, I'm going to ask you to try to get up and hop. If Kerry can get up and do that I may have to alter my strategy.” “Kerry, give it a try.” I worked hard to roll over, then sit up, and eventually stand up. I again played it up to the camera biting into my gag, struggling more then I needed to stand up. I then tried to hop a few steps. With my ankles crossed it was pretty difficult. Patrick then came over to me and grabbed me by the waist. He said - “As you can see, when I stepped away to seek help, Kerry was able to get up to try to hop away. As I mentioned this necessitates a change in strategy.” Since I'm in control I can now take Kerry and lay her back on her stomach. I am now going to use several of these black zip ties to hogtie her by using them to secure her wrists to her ankles. Squeeze a zip tie under her wrists. Now attach a couple of zip ties together. Then take a zip, squeeze it under her ankle tie and attach it to the the few zips you have attached. Do not make a loose chain. Make sure the intruders wrists touch their ankles. This assures no slack. Now Kerry, try to get loose this time.” I struggled as hard as I could, but there was no slack. I really couldn't move. I gave it my best shot for the camera, gag biting, wiggling my fingers and toes, trying to move my legs where all my muscles were accentuated. I really had no chance to get loose. I was still very hot but the zip ties were so painfully tight I was ready for this to wind down. The director had the camera on me tied like this for what felt like quite a few minutes. Patrick thankfully was just about finished- “So as you can see with Kerry, or any intruder, the advantage to using zip ties to restrain someone is that very few, if any people know how to escape them.” With that, the segment ended. Patrick quickly grabbed his knife and cut me loose. I rubbed my wrists and ankles before removing the gag. I had quite the workout!

It took a few weeks to edit the video before it appeared on You Tube. It was very well received and way exceeded the number of likes I or anyone at the store expected. Many of the comments were about me being zip tied. Some were getting a little too graphic and had to be edited.

Mack did decide to print the Kerry posters, and we did have an autograph signing. The whole store staff was kind of shocked at how long the lines were for autographs.

A lot of the both males and females who lined up for me to sign a poster and take a picture looked like they never went camping or did outdoor activities a day in their lives. While the staff was shocked, I knew exactly why they were there! Lol

At the very end of the line was a man named Tom. He handed me a card. He told me how much he enjoyed watching me in the commercial and video. I put the card down and thanked him. I wasn't until much later that I looked at it. I didn't know what to think. End of Part 2.

Any vacancies at this camping supplies shop?

Yes. And Kerry does the interviewing!!

I love this story and am hoping for a part 3!
