I can’t wait to see the look of pleasure on her face as I drag the whip across her pearly skin or spank the hell out of her ass.
Oh, the things I’ve been wanting to do to her… How I would love to see a collar on her neck, with her entire body restrained in bondage, her legs splayed apart while I fucked both her holes.
Fuck! The idea alone is messing with my mind, causing my erection to bulge harder against the sweatpants I have on.

Her mouth is packed with salad by the time I return with the wooden trunk.
“Mmm…what’s this?”
A wicked grin climbs my lips. “I give you permission to take a peek.”
She lowers herself into a crouch in front of the trunk, giving the buckles a click to pop the lid open. Her mouth falls open when she sees them.
“Are…are these…?”
“Yes, Princess. Today, I’ll be showing you how I like my partners. Beautiful, breathless, and of course…submissive without questions.” My feet push the trunk aside as my arm snakes out to pull her up and tug her waist towards me.
I can feel her heart thudding in her chest against mine. She’s scared, and that’s one thing I don’t want. Everyone else is intimidated by me and that’s exactly how I want it, except her.
“Hey…you don’t have to be scared, okay? I’ll have you pick a safe word, and I promise to stop as soon as you say it. I need you to trust me, to trust that everything I’ll be doing is aimed at pleasuring you and nothing else.”
Her wide eyes dart to the trunk and then back at me before she nods.
My hands travel up and down the length of her back, easing her tension as I slide my tongue into her mouth. Her hands reach up to my neck, holding on as if for dear life.
“You know the rules, Princess. You don’t touch me until I say so.”
“I’m sorry,” she says, hands dropping limply to her sides.
My hands smack hard against her half-exposed ass, drawing a winced breath from her.
“You’re sorry, what?”
“Teacher. I’m sorry, Teacher.”
“That’s my girl...” My heart leaps at the fact that she’s not only a fast learner, but she’s also applying all the basics I’ve taught her without questioning them. “Now, remember I told you I was going to punish you for a few things you did wrong the last time?”
My hands slide away from her waist as my frame lowers towards the trunk, taking out all my favorite instruments. A soft gasp erupts from Aria as I rise with leather cuffs for both her hands and ankles.
“Shhh…Princess, these are really comfortable.” I turn the cuffs towards her so she can see that they’re heavily padded inside. “Usually, I don’t give this level of comfort, but you’re only getting used to this, and I’m still trying to build trust.”
Relief washes over my being when she nods. A part of me thinks that she’ll bolt and run any minute now, but so far, she doesn’t look like it.
I reach down into the trunk for the chain to be attached to the loop on the cuffs.
“I’m going to put these on your wrists and cuff you right here,” I say, pointing towards the iron bars on the kitchen window.
“Is...is that safe?” Beads of trepidation are shimmering on her forehead now.
“Yes, it’s perfectly safe. Remember that any time you feel the slightest discomfort or that you can’t take it anymore, you say your safe word.” My hands are working the cuffs over her wrists as I speak, latching the chains on them and then on the iron bars.
She flexes them a little, then holds still and turns around to me. “What now?”
That question sounds like an invitation. My hands grab her butt roughly, squeezing the life out of them through her lacy nightie. The material crumbles under my touch, exposing her bare skin.
“You’re so damn beautiful.” The whispers slip out of my mouth, barely audible. My fingers crunch to drag my nails lightly over her butt cheeks. She moans a little. I can’t say if it’s from pain or pleasure, not until she giggles.
