By His Reputation Ch. 03

"Why did you send Kate to my home?!" He demanded again, spanking her still harder, his hand starting to ache but his anger cresting.

"To hurt you! So you would have to be reminded of this! So you'd remember me!" she screamed out and shivered under his hand, her body wracked with pain as she felt her panties clinging to her body wetly. And when he stopped spanking her, she remained still and waited. She waited for the next strike that never came. For her pants to be undone and for her to be taken. For anything.

"Never interfere with my life again. And leave Kate alone. You chose to leave my life. Now, Denise... Stay out of it."

"But Kate is one of my students!" Denise cried into the office, only to be answered with the closing of a door.

He closed the door behind him and stepped away, the screams of the night she left him echoing in his mind. She was right. He had said he never would be a Dominant again. But today day had been a day of firsts in many ways. Thoughts of Denise flowed through his mind before he finally let them go, clenching the first of his reddened hand and letting the chapter of that memory close. And he looked towards the edge of campus and thought of Kate. Kate, who was before him to possibly remove the things behind him. A woman who made him feel in control and powerful and safe. The passion they had was undeniable and he wanted to explore it just as much as she did. He wanted to leave painful parts of his life behind. And he finally understood what had happened that day so long ago as well as this morning. For the first time, he knew what to do.

He removed his phone from his pocket and looked at the slip of paper that he grasped tightly. Alexander entered Kate's number, and sent her a message. Simple, but he felt a weight lifted off his chest. "Dinner tonight? 8PM. Wear something nice. -Alexander"

He looked back up towards the edge of campus and resumed walking towards it, away from a painful memory and towards a more interesting future.
