I kept my voice calm but hard. “That’s one punishment, Amanda.”

She looked like she wanted to protest, but she looked down again.

I had never needed to touch a sub this soon, like I craved touching her, being inside her. My desire was so great that I had to clench my teeth.

Control was as necessary to me as breathing. I would never relinquish control or the need for it.

Her breasts were lovely, her nipples large and hard, the areolas dark. I reached up and took one nipple between my thumb and forefinger. It was hard yet soft to my touch. I studied her as I pinched her nipple and twisted it.

She gave a cry behind her gag and I saw her eyes water as she looked up at me. Quickly she dropped her gaze and I smiled to myself. She was learning.

I released her nipple, took her by her upper arms, and roughly moved her to my desk. Surprise registered on her face as well as a look of fear. I turned her and forced her down so that her cheek and breasts were against the smooth wood surface, her back flat, her ass sticking out, her hands still bound behind her back.

With one hand on the back of her neck, pinning her down, I used my other hand to slide her skirt up and over her naked ass. She now was almost completely bared to my gaze, wearing only the black skirt that was now around her waist.

While I watched her, I kept her head down as I slowly rubbed her ass with my palm, calming her, soothing her. Her skin was soft and smooth to my touch. I pulled her ass cheeks apart to look at the tight round anus.

I stroked her, letting her release the fear. The moment I felt her relax, I raised my hand and smacked her ass with enough power that her body rocked against the desk.

She cried out behind her gag, her eyes wide, and she struggled to move away from me.

“For every sound you make, for every time you attempt to pull away, I will add to your punishment.” I spanked her again and again and watched as her eyes turned glossy with tears, but she didn’t struggle again.

“Disobeying me, hesitation, and attitude will earn you a punishment every time.” I swatted her even harder and I could tell she was fighting not to cry out. “Do you understand?”

She nodded, her cheek rubbing against the glossy surface of my desk. Tears rolled from her eye, over the bridge of her nose and across her other cheek. Teardrops landed on my desk as well as a bit of drool from the ball gag.

The feeling of power and control over this woman was almost heady. I wanted to do so much more than simply spank her. I had to remind myself that another Dom would be the one to handle her education.

The thought caused me to narrow my gaze and I spanked her so hard my palm stung.

When her ass was a satisfying red, I released her and took a step back. “You may stand now.”

With her hands still tied behind her back, she was off balance and had to struggle to stand. When she finally did, her skirt slid over her hips, covering all of that luscious pink skin. To her credit, she kept her gaze down.

Her aftercare was important, so I reached out and rubbed her arms, soothing her until she relaxed.

I put my finger under her chin and raised her face. I made a circle with my finger. “Turn around.”

She did and I untied the blouse from around her wrists. I grasped her by the shoulders, turned her to face me, and handed her the blouse. She took it from me and held it, clearly waiting for my next instructions. Tears were drying on her cheeks and she was no longer crying.

“Put on the blouse,” I told her. My voice sounded harsher than I’d intended.

She looked at the ruined bra and then at the blouse. I scooped up the bra and tossed it into the garbage. She slid on her now wrinkled blouse and buttoned it over her bare breasts, her nipples poking against the silky material when it was buttoned. She tucked the blouse into the skirt, then looked down again.

“Eyes to me,” I said.

She raised her head and her eyes met mine. It pleased me that she looked humiliated at having been stripped and spanked...and because it had clearly excited her at the same time, against her will.

“Straighten your clothing.”

She did her best to smooth out the wrinkles, but she still looked disheveled, no longer the prim and proper woman she’d been when she’d entered my office.

I gestured for her to come to me and she did. I reached behind her head and unfastened the ball gag. She made a sound of discomfort as her jaws stretched again as I pulled the ball from her mouth and I set the gag on my desk.

“Did you learn anything?” I asked her.

She nodded without hesitation.

“What is that?” I asked.

She licked her lips. “You expect me to obey you right away.”

“Or any other Dom.” I gave her a nod. “You would do well to remember that from this point on. Understood?”

“Yes.” She took a deep breath. “Yes, Master.”
