Biting her lip, she lay herself over his lap.
“You want me to hold your hands for you?” he asked in a gruff voice.
Considering this was her first spanking, she had no idea.
“I-I don’t k-know.” She was starting to tremble in a mix of shock and trepidation.
“Baby, you’re shaking,” he said in a surprisingly tender voice. He laid his hand on her bottom but not to spank it, rather to rub soothing circles along her full cheeks. “Scared?”
“A little.”
“It’s all right to be a bit nervous. Shouldn’t have left it so long to do this, but I wanted you to know me again. To trust me. But you’ve probably built this up as scarier than it really is. It’s just a spanking. I know I’m a big guy, but I’ve given these in the past. I know what I’m doing.”
She really didn’t want to hear about any spankings he’d given in the past.
“I don’t know your pain tolerance, though. This is your first spanking so I’m going to take care with you. I would never want to harm you. I would never want to scare you. You being nervous is fine. Frightened is not. You know the sort of relationship I want. Who I am. But if you ever decide you don’t want this then ultimately you have all the power. I’m not taking your submission. You give it to me.”
She thought through all of that. She liked that. That he wasn’t taking anything. On the other hand, that meant she was giving him permission to take charge and spank her.
But the truth was, she felt better with the boundaries he’d laid down. For the first time in a long time, she didn’t feel like a weirdo. And the voice telling her that she was worthless and white trash had disappeared down to a whisper.
Because of Jed. Because he accepted her for who she was. And part of who she was needed to know he would follow up on his word.
So, she took a deep breath and relaxed.
“You accepting my dominance, baby girl?” he asked her, still rubbing her ass. Damn, she quite liked that.
“Yes, Daddy.”
“And everything that comes with that?”
“Yes, Daddy.”
“That’s my good girl. Now, I’m gonna give you a safe word. You can use it if things ever go too far, if you ever become scared but it’s not a get-out-of-a-spanking free card,” he warned. “And I got more punishments I can use. Understand?”
“Yes, Daddy.”
“Your safe word is fruit. Understand?”
“Yes. I understand.”
Without another word, he laid a sharp slap on her ass. And holy shit! That hurt.
Another smack landed before she could protest. He wasn’t messing around. These were hard, and fast. Soon her ass was stinging, heat invading deep and she found her breath coming in sharp gasps. And she didn’t know what the hell to do with her hands. She couldn’t touch the floor. They were just hanging there. So, she grasped hold of his calf and held on for dear life.
“No, it’s enough!” she cried out.
“Oh, baby, we’re not there yet.” There was sympathy in his voice. And determination.
That did not bode well for her.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
Why had she eaten the candy? She had to have known she’d be caught, right? Jed didn’t miss much.
Which meant she’d probably wanted to get caught? That she’d wanted this?
No. That was crazy talk.
