on her face. He was torn between the need to console her and the obligation to correct her. Such an interesting paradox. “I’m glad you are taking responsibility for your actions. It is imperative for a D/s relationship.” Thomas paused, taking in a long, deep breath before ordering Annie to lay over his lap and prepare for her punishment.
Annie was magnificently laid over him, her splendid ass ready. His cock immediately responded to the heat that radiated from her core. His erection was trapped in his jeans, desperate for freedom, but he ignored his need and gathered his thoughts before administering her well-deserved punishment. Annie’s face showed a fascinating combination of uneasiness and desire. Understandable, given she did not know what to expect. Thomas knew the significance of the moment. Annie was to receive her first punishment spanking.
“You will receive twenty spanks now. I expect you to safeword if it is too much for you to take. Your health and well-being are more important than anything else.” Thomas began the volley of blows to her buttocks in a slow, steady rhythm. Each resounding slap made the fleshy globes a healthy pink color. The sight of it was incredibly arousing. Thomas wanted to drive his shaft into her so hard and so long that his name was the only one she would ever know.
He was momentarily detracted by her crying. He knew his spankings hurt, as they were meant to. Still, it was difficult for him to hear her sobs. Once he finished with the last spank, he scooped her up into his arms and rocked her gently. Her head was tucked in the crook of his neck as he whispered in her ear. “Good girl. It’s okay now, sweetheart. You were such a good girl to take your spanking without protest. All is forgiven.” He rubbed her back and soothed her with his words until her crying ceased. Cradling her face in his hands, he gently wiped the stream of wetness from her cheeks, caressing her smooth skin with his thumbs. Annie looked him in the eyes and silently conveyed her penance and acceptance. Thomas kissed the tip of her nose sweetly and smiled at her. When she smiled back at him, Thomas knew for certain that she was his destiny.
His eyes opened in astonishment, suddenly aware that his right fist was pumping his cock vigorously. With only a few thrusts, he climaxed and gasped, surprised by the force with which his body responded to the fantasy.
He imagined turning the fantasy into reality now that he had spent some significant time with Annie. While cleaning up in the bathroom, he pictured her lying in her bed, her hand wandering down between her legs, pleasuring herself as she thought of him. Amazed when his cock twitched to semi-erection, he decided a cold shower was necessary if he was to get some sleep.
Chapter Four
Thomas was punctual as usual, arriving at Annie’s just a few minutes before seven. He planned to take her to an upscale Chinese restaurant in the city. The decision was made after their earlier phone conversation in which she confirmed her love for most Asian dishes. Not giving himself time to think about his newfound lady during the day, he indulged now that the week was complete. His time was truly his own until Monday morning. He hoped to spend as much time with Annie over the weekend as possible. The need to learn everything about her was compelling and unrelenting.
His introduction into the BDSM world had occurred in his mid-twenties. Stressed out from a grueling schedule as a resident in a major metropolitan teaching hospital, he had needed an outlet. Usually that outlet consisted of a three- to five-mile jog along the Charles River. The physical exertion helped to empty his mind of clutter and worry. It was his brother, Matthew, who introduced him to the lifestyle.
There was no question that Matthew was a dominant, but he had recognized his predilection earlier in his life. Having less finesse than Thomas, Matthew was more ‘out there’ in terms of his
