Her Majesty and I have spent the past few years hoping our son would get into a good college. He’s a great kid; super smart but not the most industrious. As it turns out we needn’t have worried. So far he has gotten into 4 of the 6 colleges he has applied to. Needless to say we are pleased and proud.
My son and I are best of friends. Lately I have been recording his music in my studio. Turns out he has a really beautiful singing voice in addition to being an accomplished guitarist and banjo picker. He writes great songs. I would rather record his music than my own these days; time to pass the torch to the next generation. We look at the world in much the same way. I am going to miss him when he goes to college.
Soon Her Majesty and I will be empty nesters. For the first time in 18 years we will have the house to ourselves. We will have an opportunity to be more open about our D/s relationship and play regularly if we want to. This sounds like a blessing but it may cause problems. Change is always a challenge. Will my heightened expectations lead to problems? Will our relationship change to accommodate our new found freedom or remain essentially the same?
It’s been awhile since we’ve been able to have a proper session with all the trimmings. There always seems to be something going on. Yesterday we were chasing a squirrel around the house trying to evict him. It turns out there is a hole in the back wall near the roof and the furry little critters are taking refuge from the cold. Friday I came home to find one swinging from our bedroom light like a swash buckling action hero. Her Majesty found one in the kitchen eating the tomatoes. Needless to say the cats are thrilled!
Being married to a dominant woman can be challenging at times. Her Majesty is a warrior queen. I have the scars to prove it. She never punishes me with whip or cane. That is playtime; something she gives to me out of love. She tortures me emotionally and psychologically. Her Majesty knows where all my buttons are and exactly how to push them. She gets into these really black moods sometimes and can’t resist lashing out.
We almost never fight but when we do its Armageddon. We had one of those on Friday night. Of course it was about something ridiculous. Perhaps we were both just feeling a bit squirrely. I don’t even know why I bother trying to defend myself. She always wins. I don’t call her my wolverine for nothing. I woke up Saturday morning with wolverine scratches all over my soul!
It takes me awhile to recover from a fight with Her Majesty. The reverberations of our argument spread outward like ripples in a pool. I had to meditate and go to the gym to get my head right. When I returned home she made a delicious lunch as a peace offering. We spent the remainder of the afternoon lazily watching television. She put her feet on me and allowed me to kiss, suck and worship them. Later when we retired to bed, she lowered herself onto my face and my tongue slipped inside of her. I felt my soul reconnect with hers and we became intertwined again. I was beneath her, smelling her, tasting her getting lost in her. I was back where I belong.

Congratulations on your son being admitted to college.
I hope your empty nest will be full of dynamic interactions between you and your Mejesty and that you don't suffer too much (or suffer a lot, dependiong on how you look at it) because of any mistakes your expectations may drive you to commit.
Good luck to the three of you!
Thanks Mistress Misty! I am really glad you enjoyed it! :-)
I thought it would be interesting to share about "real life" and pull back to look at the big picture for a change. D/s and BDSM are balanced by a million other things in our lives that are always going on. Our Mistress/slave relationship is an important part of the picture that must be kept in balance with everything else.
Thanks vs-boy! I have high hopes for both my son's future and the future of my relationship with Her Majesty. Getting him ready to go to college has been quite a challenge. I have been so mired in all the details that I haven't really been thinking about the big picture. My family is entering a new season that holds a lot of promise for everyone concerned.
Learning to manage my expectations has been a challenging part of my journey that I still struggle with sometimes. I trust they won't cause me too many problems but I should certainly remain aware of them.
Many thanks for your post! :-)
Our children becoming adults are both painful and gratifying. They are invariably the product of our being. Take pride or humility, depending on how they turn out. I am glad that you and he share something besides DNA. It is rare nowadays.
As for the empty nest syndrome, well, some of us have actually looked forward to that after dealing with impossible teenagers. Still, we miss them even before they are gone. That is just being a parent.
Now, the wolverine syndrome, well, you should know better than to invoke her, especially, as you implied, you never win. Now she can have an opportunity to demonstrate that to you, and ingrain it on your memory not to mess with her like that. The ultimate result should be exactly as you wanted even before pissing her off: she does what she wants, and you like it. Enjoy it my friend!
Hey SP:
Thank you for this wise, heartfelt and sympathetic post. What you say is very true. Our son is the most important project Her Majesty and I have worked on together. He has been the most joyful,rewarding and all consuming part of our lives. As much as I have yearned for the house alone with her sometimes I would not trade watching him grow up for anything else in the world. I am very proud of him! He has turned out to be an honest, courageous, thoughtful and sensitive young man with a lot of class and integrity. He is extremely sophisticated and politically astute; very perceptive and aware of what is going on in the world around him. He is not easily swayed by propaganda or fooled by phony arguments. I will be glad to get some more alone time with Her Majesty but I miss him already.
As for baiting the wolverine that lies dormant within Her Majesty you are 100% correct! I really should know better right? ;-) Her Majesty is a lot of things but "boring" is one word that simply doesn't apply! I enjoy all of her various aspects and moods even if she kicks my ass sometimes! In fact I love her exactly as she is and I wouldn't want her any other way!! ;-)
