Punishment

The restraints tighten on her wrists and she wills her body to relax.

The whistle of His belt flying through the air-
The unmistakable feel of leather on her skin.

~One, Sir!

Again, the whistle, making her tremble just before the second hits.
She can feel the warmness trickling down her back.

~Two, Sir!

The third blow, just above her hips.
Her legs are shaking now, pulling at her bonds.

~Three, Sir.

Over and over again His belt comes down on her bare skin.
Each time her back arches and her screams come, just before the count.

~Four, Sir.
~Five,
~Six,
~Seven,

~Eight, Sir.

The pain searing through her as the ninth one hits.
Feeling the rush of air as He draws His belt back again.

~Nine, Sir.

The tenth sting hits between her shoulders.
She barely feels it this time.
Her body is slipping – Her voice, barely above a whisper.

~Ten, Sir.

His strong arms are around her now. Rocking her.
His hand lovingly stroking her hair.
She is safe.

She feels His breath on her neck, and then hears His voice close to her.
“You have done well, My pet. I’m so proud of you.”

She melts into His arms and smiles through her tears
-as she falls asleep

She has pleased her Master.
