He patted his legs. “Come.”
“You want me to sit on your lap?”
“Upside down with your ass pushed up, yes.” He smiled at the expression of disbelief on her face. “Really, my pet? Do I need to spell it out? You know how this works. There are always repercussions for disobedience.” He sat back. “I understand your hesitation, since we haven’t discussed your limit list or your pain threshold.”
“Thank you, Sir. I learned since I’ve been alone not to dive headfirst into any situation.”
“It doesn’t mean you’ve been absolved from the punishment you deserve.” He sat back. “Let me see. You’re not into heavy impact tools but love the sting of a flogger... or a spanking. You appreciate a medium level of pain and soar in the wake of edging.” The smile that followed her surprised look was nothing short of Cheshire like. “Am I close?”
“Too close for comfort,” she muttered.
“Get over here, sub. You’re wasting time. Not to mention begging for an additional five slaps.”
She was draped across his lap in the blink of an eye. He steadied her with a firm hand on the small of her back as he pushed her forward. She pressed her palms on the floor as the position forced her on her toes. It was precarious at best but it warned her that he had the control.
A shiver followed in the wake of his hand pushing her dress up and over her back to bare her buttocks to his gaze.
“Cute little butt, my pet.” He caressed the rounded curve of her cheeks. “Perfect size for my palm.”
Crack! Crack!
“Shit!” she gasped as his hand connected in two searing slaps.
“Tonight is more than a dinner date, Paxton.”
Crack! Crack!
“I’m also going to see howwillingyou are to submit to me.”
Crack! Crack!
“Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate a certain level of sass and brattiness but...”
Crack! Crack!
“I want to see if you know when you’ve pushed me too far.”
Crack! Crack!
“Like you, my pet... I have boundaries as well.”
Crack! Crack!
“Holy crap! That hurts,” she wailed. Every slap had increased in intensity. Her cheeks were on fire. She gasped as he brushed his hand over her sensitized skin. The action caused the burning heat to flow deeper to settle in a throbbing demand in her loins.
“I love the red glow of your skin, my pet. It’s a color I could become addicted to.” His chuckle brushed over the frayed edges of her mind. “Almost makes me wish you’d disobey me on a daily basis.”
“Thanks for the warning, Sir.” Her tone cracked icily.
“Of course, as a sub, you know you have the control. Always remember that, Paxton. No matter where we are or what we’re doing. In lieu of that, I need you to tell me your safeword.” He continued the circling caress of his palm over her stinging behind. “Something you’ll always remember, even during a very intense scene.”
“I... ehmmmm.” She jerked as his fingers did a brief foray down the crack of her ass to tease the opening of her pussy. “How about... Stilettos.”
“Stilettos it is. Let’s see if you can remember it, shall we?”
“We really don’t need to at the—”
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
