Part 1
It was a hot late afternoon in August 1875 when a small group of girls was sitting in the patio of the Vennesvik inn. However, a random observer would notice that their arms were tied behind their backs. The group was no exception. All women around had their arms tied up as well.
According to the Restriction Law in the Estreamund Kingdom, all females over 16 had to have their arms tied except for at home. Their husbands, fathers or brothers had to take care of their needs but they also had the authority to keep their wives, daughters or sisters tied up even more than necessary by the Law. In case of missing a family-related male caretaker, a public male caretaker was assigned.
Almost all females were plagued by incontinence and they had to wear diapers. Of course, there were no disposables diapers available at those times, and dozens of washed diapers were hanging behind every house. The women and girls had to wash their diapers two or three times in a week.
Surprisingly, there was no sign of rebellion from either side. The males accepted their role even if it was quite uncomfortable, and the females didnât try to protest or try to escape. There was something like a dark mystery and curse hanging over the country as if the mind of every human was affected by a magic power.
âHow are you doing today, Anette?â a blonde girl turned to her neighbor, âItâs fine Iâve finished my chores and my father allowed me go here and drink a beer.â
âYouâre lucky, Sigrid; you have your father. My father passed away long ago and Olaf has been taking care of me since then.â
âI know, Anette; Olaf is a good caretaker; I havenât heard any complaints.â
âOf course, he is but he has to take care of five girls including me and I have to stay tied up whenever he isnât around. Thatâs quite frustrating. I canât do anything on my own and I have to wear a thick diaper package. Today he stopped at my house at lunch and I could eat and change my diapers. Since then, Iâve been browsing the village and trying to waste time. He will come in the evening to do his round, and he will tie me to the bed then.â
Sigrid nodded only. She knew about Anette and several more girls and women that were assigned a public caretaker. Olaf was really a good man, but he was a bit overloaded. Each of his clients had one morning and one afternoon reserved during workdays and about two days of weekend every month. Most of the reserved time they washed their diapers and tidied up. Nevertheless, Olafâs life was even harder; he had only two days off in a month.
James walked over to the girls and he held the glassof beer at their lips so they could drink. James was a nice young boy; he was the innkeeperâs son and he often helped his father.
âThank you, James,â Sigrid smiled at him.
âYouâre welcome, Sigrid,â he replied and moved to Anette. Anette drank up her cup and almost asked James for another one when she felt a stream of pee soaking her diaper package. The package was quite heavy and uncomfortable, and she couldnât dare to pee once more until the next change.
âGood afternoon, ladies; hopefully I donât disturbâ Olafâs voice sounded cheerful and the middle aged man sat down next to the group.
âNot at least, Olaf. Is your shift over already?â Anette turned to him.
âYeah, Anette, it is getting late. Maybe I should start my evening round soon. Would you like to be the first one?â
âWhy not, Olaf?â Anetteâs heart jumped; she would get rid of the damn wet diaper.
âWell, Iâll drink a beer and we can go then,â Olaf nodded, âJames, bring me a glass of beer and the dinners for my girls.â The women cared for by public caretakers couldnât work and the municipality took care of all their needs. The innkeeper prepared food and his expenses were refunded. Unfortunately, that was a reason for bad relationships. The poor women were considered parasites despite the fact they couldnât work.
Five minutes later James appeared with the beer and a big bag, Olaf paid for the beer and lifted the glass to his lips. He really was thirsty. Anette watched him only.
âLetâs go, Anette,â Olaf stood up and stepped forward. Anette also stood up and waddled behind him. The wet package between her legs was heavy and Anette was worried about a leakage.
âHurry up? Anette,â Olaf closed the door and Anette hurried up to the small bathroom to remove the diaper package, wash herself and put on a new diaper and change into her nightshirt. She ate her dinner quickly and washed dishes.
âUp to the bed,â Olaf took several pieces of rope and followed Anette. She lay down obediently and stretched her arms behind her head. Olaf tied her wrists to the upper bedposts.
âSpread your legs,â Olaf took another piece of rope and tied it around her left ankle, âSorry but I have to be sure you wonât try to get free, Anette.â
âDonât worry, Olaf. Why should I try to do it?â Anette smiled at Olaf. He was a handsome man, and he sometimes couldnât resist the temptation when he took care of women. He was single; no woman wanted to marry a public caretaker for a good reason. Anette liked him and they had an intimate relationship.
âOkay then,â Olaf tied her ankle to the lower bedpost and moved to her right side to repeat the procedure with her right ankle. Anette moaned quietly when she felt his hands on her bare legs. âGood night and think of me.â He covered her, leaned down, kissed her lips, put out the light and left.
Anette couldnât fall asleep; it was too early. She was thinking of Olaf, and she felt a slight arousal. Her life was almost miserable, and the time spent with Olaf was a pleasant one. Of course, she had several friends in the village, but they met rarely. Sigrid and Kristi were quite busy with helping their families. Mona and Hannah were two widows, and they were also cared for by Olaf; nevertheless they were quite boring and Anette wouldnât like to meet them because of the urine smell. The old women liked beer and their diapers leaked almost every day.
The thoughts of Olaf caused an itching feeling down between her legs, and she started pulling on the ropes in a vain effort to scratch that itch. Unfortunately, the inability to scratch the itch made it even more intense. She started moaning and pulling on the ropes but the response was unexpected; a stream of pee soaked her diaper. She sighed only, and the arousal disappeared.
Suddenly the door opened, and a small figure sneaked in.
âHello, Anette,â Jamesâs vice sounded cheerful.
âHi, James, nice to see you. Have you finished today?â
âNot exactly but I wanted to see you. You are that lonely and you might need a friend.â
âOh, it is really nice from you, James. Right, I am quite lonely, and Olaf had to leave to take care of other his clients.â
âWould you like to have one more beer to sleep better?â
âOh no,â Anette realized the wet package between her legs and blushed a little, âI would leak until morning.â
âUnless,â James grinned mischievously, âunless somebody changed your diaper.â
âHey, what would you like to say?â
âDonât worry. I think Olaf has changed your diaper already. I know how to do it; Iâve changed my mother and sister already.â
âOkay then. I might use it,â she smiled at the small boy. Was he really that nice?
âWait a little,â James set off and he returned fifteen minutes later with a glass of beer.
âDrink,â he held the glass at Anetteâs lips and let her drink. Anette was quite thirsty and drank it up quickly. The reaction was almost immediate, and another stream of pee escaped her bladder.
âJames âŚâ, she grinned, and James nodded. He brought two cleans diapers and lifted Anetteâs nightshirt, unbuttoned the rubber pants and removed the wet diapers.
âYou are all wet indeed,â he pulled the wet diapers form beneath Anette and put on two clean ones.
âWell, it will hold until morning,â he covered her, took the wet diapers, put them into the pail and left, âgood night.â
Anette closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly. She was glad to have a new friend even if it was a small boy.
