Placing the towel over her, he reached under and pulled her panties down. While it was not necessary to cover her for decency sake, he knew what he was going to unleash next. Her skin would not take it so well, so a good towel was going to help her out.

He returned to the table and selected the wooden paddle. He felt her gasp of air. He knew she was wincing and praying. He also knew that she wasn’t fighting the table either. The woman was accepting this very new twist of their lives. She was becoming her own. Her own sub. She was embracing her new life. Maybe this was his ego trying to fill him up with pride, but he had not broken her. That was critical for him. There was no need to break her spirit. He was just teaching her a lesson.

Picking up the wooden paddle, he knew she was trying hard not to wince and protest. He placed the paddle on her tush and let it balance on there a while. He wanted her to let the thought of that paddle ruining her rear marinate a little. That would probably be much more effective than swinging at her with it.

After about 90 seconds of this, he knew it must be messing with her internally. He removed the paddle and pulled out his own yardstick. This was why he had the towel over her. The yardstick wasn’t heavy but the edges could very easily lift skin. That was not going to be cool. The sting would be too much. But with the towel, there would be no such damage and also the sting much less. However, her thinking it’s the paddle, well, that was the trick to this round.

To help create the illusion of the heavy paddle, he had placed a little bit of weight at the tip. The part that would never touch her. The yardstick was slightly reinforced so it wouldn’t break either. It would flex, it would bounce back to him, but it wouldn’t break on her. However, she would be thinking about the heavy paddle, and that made it just as lesson rich.

She braced herself. The salvos had a slower tempo this time around. But man she was near panic about the damage she’d feel. To her great surprise, after a few hits, she realized the pain didn’t match the weight of the paddle. For the weight and heft it had, this was supposed to have her cringing in agony for the amount of force he was using.

Her body was not being slammed into the table like she thought she’d be, and she was not experiencing excruciating pain. He had the most marvelous of hand control. This man was really being extra careful. She felt so much guilt for ever doubting his abilities. How did he know? How did he understand? He was not close to the limits of her pain tolerance.

Her eyes filled with more tears. This time, they were different tears. She felt safe. Secure. Understood. Loved. The man had every reason to lash and tear into her. Yet, he remained her loving king.

Yeah, that sounded weird to her but also sounded right. He was her loving king. He had shown mercy. He had shown restraint. She was ever indebted to him.

After the ten rounds were done, he was kind enough to massage her rear. He lifted her out of her restraints, released her from the table, then held her close.

The tenderness made her weep all the more. The man was being too kind and considerate. However, she was very very aware that her tush was red and sore. He may have been nice, but he was very strict. As he released her, she took the time to lock eyes with him. She saw his tenderness and also saw that he was still upset about being crossed. She apologized as sincerely as she could. His eyes softened and change. He understood that she meant every single word of her apology and he had forgiven her.

She then expressed her desires to have him do unto her what she had done to him earlier. She needed to atone for that wrong as well. He denied her request. There was no room for negotiations in the way he closed that door.

Taking her by the hand to the living room again he told her about the Blue Lagoon and his original plans for it. He said that he felt she had learned sufficiently what needed to be learned. He was ready for bed.

Her excitement about having a play room was taking over. She needed to know what was in there. She wanted to play. She needed to play. This was all new and way too exciting. She needed to know what he was capable of doing. He was so sweetly tender. Mix that with more toys, she felt she was going to be in nirvana!

Pouting, she tried to coax him into going into the room. He shrugged his shoulders. He looked more exhausted than he’d ever looked. There was not much play left in him. But she needed this. She wanted him to know he can trust her, she had learned, she was not going back. She felt empowered in a way she needed to understand and he was the key.

She noticed the slight flicker in his eyes. Whatever that mean, she hoped to find out. It had been a flicker towards the office. She closed in on him and kissed him as profoundly as she could. As she slid deeply into his arms her hands told her a story that alarmed her. His back seemed to be covered with welts. That could not be his shirt.

He stiffened up very tightly.

Those were welts. All manners of shapes and directions.

Had she been that reckless?

Resisting her urges to turn his body and inspect, she step back and around and asked permission to see. He hesitated. She closed in and let her breast lightly touch his back. The man stood all the more erect. There was a lot of pain radiating from him. Not just physical, but emotional.

Slowly tracing his back it dawned on her that many of these welts were not hers and way too new. Something had happened. Something serious had taken place. She needed to know what had happened to her king. She needed to support him and let him know that she was his queen, the one he had longed for and missed for far too long.

Whatever cost he had paid to make this the best birthday, he could not be left to pay on his own. She was going to do all she could to be there for him the way he deserved to be supported. Even if it mean no sleep for her, she was there for him until death separated them.
