I slowly eased myself down the stairs. I could see the dim light above the sink shining from around the corner. With a sigh, I dropped my bag at the bottom and slipped my shoes off. It was only then did I stop and notice you leaning there in the doorway between the kitchen and living room. I gazed at your still, shadowy form for a moment. You were shirtless, your lightly muscles chest accentuated with your arms crossed over it. I raised my eyes to meet yours, and felt a turn in my stomach at the fired intensity that lay there.
"What are you...?"
"hush." The harshness of your voice stopped my heart for a moment; my breath caught in my chest. I crept towards you as you motioned me over with one finger, my eyes averted to anywhere but in yours. I stopped inches from you; the faint scent of your seductive cologne and your own smell binded together, swelling around my senses. I watched the slow steady rise and fall of your chest, and the silence began to bear down on me.
Finally, in a low, steady voice you cooed, "Is this any way for a slut to greet her master?" the softness of your voice was startling, but the words were even more so. My jaw opened slightly as I hesitated to find words to respond with. With an incredible swiftness, you hand found itself tangled in my hair. "Apparently respect is not something you believe in."
I quickly stuttered the only thing that came to my mind. "I... I'm sorry..."
"Are you? Doesn't much sound like it." I swallowed hard as your grip tightened; focusing on the heat in my stomach, realizing that I needed the help of something inside me that had been sleeping for a long time.
Opening my eyes and staring at your suddenly perfect feet, my body relaxed and a steady voice stated, "I'm sorry sir, my rudeness is unacceptable." Your hand released me, and I could feel your surprise.
Your surprise quickly melted away and was replaced by a gruff, "good." After a second, you growled at me, "so have we learned nothing?" I instantly dropped to my knees, and a hidden, suppressed instinct took hold of me. My mind began to go fuzzy, and my eyes began to blur out everything but your body. My body sat straight, my head tilted towards the floor. I laced my fingers behind my neck as I made sure that my knees stayed slightly apart. I felt your warm gaze burning all over me as your moved your circle around me.
Adrenaline began to streak my veins as I felt you move closer. You crouched beside me and brushed your lips against my ear, your hot breath sending a cold chill down my spine. "I know what you need... and your lack of respect has ensured it for you, darling." You swiftly stood up and spoke heavily as you walked away. "Get ready and wait for me."
I watched you walk into the bedroom and close the door behind you. With a shivering sigh, I stood and moved toward the living room, then on to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and sighed, questioning. "Why do I feel this way? What is it that does this to me?" I stripped myself, quickly washed and did a few touch-ups with the razor. I came back out to the living room and positioned myself on my knees, hands behind the neck, one of the 'giving' postures. It wasn't long before I heard the bedroom door open and you step towards me.
Your gentle presence today was ominous; you carried with you a sense of foreboding. It was strange, not quite you; yet somehow it sent the butterflies in my stomach into frenzies... it was maddening. You took my hands and placed a sport cuff on each wrist, and gently placed a blindfold over my eyes. As you tied it, you spoke softly. "Why am I doing this?" without hesitation I answered confidently.
"For my infraction." You tightened the blind fold and stood me up.
"And what was that?"
