This is a longer, more emotional, less reality-based version of "The Coffee Table."
*****
She was instantly embarrassed when she clicked the like button. He was actually looking for someone much younger, according to the bits of the profile she hadn't read until after clicking the like button. The first part of his profile said, "you must love music" and that line drew her in right away, and she clicked impulsively without reading the rest.
She was thoroughly surprised when she received a message from him a few hours later. Honesty being the best policy—especially considering the kind of domination she needed in bed—she told him that she was a solid ten years out of his target demographic.
To her further surprise, he remained interested and they set a date a couple weeks away at one of her favorite restaurants.
She wasn't a first date kind of girl, more of a fifth date kind of girl, to be straightforward about it. But he owned her body and mind after that first date and the memories of that night rocked her even now.
And she had angered him, potentially betrayed the delicate balance of trust and respect that only exists between a submissive and the man that dominates her.
He set her free for several excruciating weeks.
But now, now she stands before him, on the opposite side of his kitchen. She still cannot catch her breath. The sight of him had taken her breath away the moment she walked through the door.
She meets his eyes for the first time in weeks, only to lower them instantly, submitting to the heat in his gaze. He leans against the wall in a well-tailored suit, sans tie, his shirt unbuttoned one more button than is strictly necessary even in the summer heat. Silently she wonders how it's even possible that someone can be so devastatingly sexy.
His eyes devour her, dressed for his pleasure in a brief, snug black skirt and an equally well-tailored shirt, seamed stockings, and high heels. Her blonde hair curled, also for his pleasure, at just the perfect length to grab a fistful should it suit him.
"You look fantastic."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you for agreeing to see me."
A warm, yet slightly forbidding smile brightens his eyes, "you are here to be punished, don't thank me yet".
He lifts her chin and forces her eyes to meet his. She finds him irresistible, yet he intimidates her in a way that no man has ever been able to accomplish before now. She drops her eyes.
He places the smallest, most tender kiss on the side of her neck, the warmth of his breath releases a different warmth between her thighs.
"You smell fantastic as well, it's a pity that I have to punish you this afternoon."
He steps back and offers her a sip of his water. She accepts with gratitude. He takes the bottle from her and holds her at arms length and checks that every detail of her appearance pleases him. Satisfied, he takes her hand, "come with me, slut."
Without meaning to, she stops dead. "Your slut?"
His first reaction is anger at her disobedience, but the earnestness and fear on her face softens him. "Perhaps, darling. But, come. Now."
She steps forward when he squeezes her hand, but the look of concern remains.
He continues to walk toward the living room but says, "that wasn't a 'no' darling. Come along before I lose my temper."
He leads her around the corner to the living room to where he has displayed a leather collar, ankle cuffs, and wrist cuffs next to a frightening array of chains, crops, and floggers beside his recliner. He settles down in his chair, and points to the coffee table, "stand on the table."
"Yes, sir."
"Don't talk anymore."
She nods, eyes cast downward.
"Undress."
He reaches over and turns on a slow, grinding blues song who's provocative rhythm reminds her of their first night together as she unbuttons her dress shirt distractedly.
"Pay attention, whore." He picks up a long dressage whip and she gasps when it strikes her thigh, leaving a long, thin, red welt. She opens her mouth to respond, but the whip stings her other thigh before she can get out a reply.
"I told you not to talk."
She unbuttons her skirt, balancing precariously on her high heels as she steps out of it one foot at a time.
"Fold your clothes and place them on the corner of the table."
She folds the skirt and starts to place it in the corner in front of her and to the right.
"No, behind you."
She turns around and slowly bends over to put down the folded skirt. Her garters stretch with the movement, tugging her stockings so they frame the curves of her ass. Her balance is precarious and she bends all the way down slowly, exposing her bald and dripping cunt, just as he intended.
She begins to take off her shirt but feels the whip on her thigh once again. Instinctively, she stops and turns around so he can watch as she removes the shirt to reveal a black lace bra that matches the garter belt and, while it cups her round breasts beautifully, does nothing to conceal her rock hard nipples. She turns around again to fold the shirt and place it with the skirt. She cannot see his smile of approval as her pussy is again on display. She turns around and begins to take off the garters.
"Leave them on, please. But put this on." He hands her a weighty leather collar with several D-rings. Her heart sinks a bit, shouldn't he be putting on the collar? Is this part of the punishment, making her do it herself? Worry furrows her brow again, she feels the dressage whip against her other thigh, and looks up with surprise.
"Do you trust me? You may speak to answer this question."
"Y-yes, sir," she stammers.
"Then trust me fully, pet. Take the punishment you so royally deserve and stop worrying about it. You're not as pretty when you frown and my sub should be happy, relaxed, and beautiful in my presence."
"Yes, sir."
"No more talking."
He hands her the wrist and ankle cuffs, which she also dons. When she's tightened the last buckle, she presents herself to him for inspection, tits out, legs slightly spread to show off her smoothly shaven pussy. He stands, slowly circles the coffee table and takes in her every detail.
"Spread your fucking legs."
She complies in silence.
"Mmmm. Good girl."
He picks up the chains and she notices the snaps for the first time. He summons her to the edge of the table and snaps the heavy chains to her collar, wrists, and ankles, limiting her movements. He returns to his chair and changes the song, still blues, but slower, more sensual.
He sits back down in his recliner and just looks at her. He continues to enjoy the view as she stands there, displayed for him, restrained, nearly naked and totally at his mercy. The song transitions to another and yet another and he continues to watch her, testing her patience.
"Put your arms above your head."
