"I am going to take your ass," I told her, keeping my voice gentle, but making sure that she could look into my eyes and know I meant it.
She had to strain to look at me, but she was meeting my gaze. She was tied up, her wrists cuffed to the bed, lying on her stomach, her head turned sharply to the side in order to see me.
She moaned a little. It was barely audible, but I could hear it.
I knelt so that she wouldn't have to strain, and ran my hands down her bare back. She shivered a little as my fingers moved against her skin.
I smiled at her, as calm and reassuring a smile as I could.
I said, "You want that, don't you?"
She licked her lips. Her wrists strained against the cuffs. She did not speak.
I said, "Don't you?" My voice was sterner now.
Her brown eyes looked huge and frightened and she said, "Yes."
"Good girl," I told her. I rose and moved towards her ass. I picked up the lubricant from the floor.
No one had ever taken Anne's ass. She had confessed as much to me, confessed that she was frightened, scared it would be painful. She loved some pain, of course—she loved to be spanked, to be punished, to be humiliated. She loved to be made to kneel before me and beg for my cock. But something about the pain of being taken anally was too intimate, too personal for her. So I knew that she would be very frightened.
She was beautiful, splayed out there on the bed, completely helpless. I took her legs—I hadn't tied them—and repositioned her so that she was kneeling. I said, "Are you ready, sweetie?"
It was a formality, of course, but formalities are everything in sex, sometimes. She moaned, and I took it for a yes—she knew I would. I put some lube on my fingers and moved them into her asshole. She flinched a little bit, and I made a mental note of that. I spread lube as best I could in and around her anus, making sure to coat it heavily, and then I stopped and moved back to stand by her head again. Her head and eyes were down, and she was squirming a little.
"Look at me, Anne," I said.
She followed orders, still squirming.
"Stay still," I told her, letting some of my anger show.
She froze. She knew the tone. She knew what it meant.
I said, "Why did you flinch when I touched you, Anne?"
She said, "I don't know."
I moved quickly, then, reaching underneath her and grabbing her left breast in my right hand. She moved up as far as she could, repositioning herself, not daring to impede my access to her. I had trained her well.
I said, "You know you're not to flinch. You know I don't like it."
She said, "Yes." She looked very frightened.
I was stroking her breast now, teasing it, enjoying her discomfiture as the nipple expanded beneath my fingertips. I pinched the engorged nipple, hard, and she made a little sound.
I said, "You know you have to be punished for that, sweetie. Don't you?"
I pinched her nipple again to emphasize the point.
She said, again, "Yes."
I smiled. I did love her very much. There was something wonderfully tender about the moments when she accepted her punishment. Even spanking her was an act of tremendous intimacy, as she allowed me to access her, to control her, to take her in the most literal sense of the word.
I said, "That's better." I kissed her lightly on the lips, and then harder. She opened her mouth, and we kissed for a few moments. I moved my hand away from her breast, stroking her hair, holding her face against mine. I said, after the kisses had abated, "How high can you count, Anne?"
She shivered in absolute terror. I said, "How high?"
She knew I did not like to repeat myself. "Ten," she said. "I can count to ten."
"Ten is good," I said. In truth, I hadn't expected her to volunteer anything over five. "The hairbrush or the crop?"
"No, please! Please!"
"Which one?" I asked, getting exasperated.
"The brush," she said. "The brush."
"That's my girl," I said. I took the hairbrush off her nightstand. "Kiss it for me," I said, presenting it to her.
She did as commanded, and I moved behind her. "Now count," I ordered her. I took the hairbrush and smacked her with it, giving her no time to prepare herself.
"One!" she shouted.
