This is a FF/m spanking story. Aside from the spanking itself, the femdom and emotional elements are gentle and caring. This is the final part of a little series, but can work as a standalone if you'd like. The characters, video game, and university are entirely fictional. Your feedback is always greatly appreciated. Enjoy!
It was a beautiful early May evening, the brink of summer, and today Emerson had come to the familiar, quaint porch happy and free.
"Well?" asked Ms. Hartford, standing in the doorframe.
"I'm here for my spanking?" asked Emerson, because he wasn't sure what to say. It wouldn't exactly go that way tonight, with a younger disciplinarian understudy working alongside her.
"Not that! I meant, did you pass all your classes?"
"Yes, ma'am! Thank you for your, um, encouragement."
"You're welcome. What good news," she said, stepping back to allow him inside. "I'm glad you'll be nice and relaxed. I wanted to talk to you about something."
There sat a new pit in his stomach. Those words never meant anything good. He heard them right before his last girlfriend broke it off, and most recently when his mother told him that the family cat wasn't doing well. He had a strange urge to apologize in advance, but refrained.
He took a seat inside on the couch where, normally, Ms. Hartford calmed him and held him after one of his more serious punishments. Today she cleared her throat and asked him all too directly, "Were you the one who left that anonymous comment on my website a few weeks back?"
"No," he said softly, fiddling suddenly with his hands. He did. More specifically, he had asked if she would ever consider dating any of her clients, and then further inquired about her thoughts on big age gaps. Ms. Hartford hadn't replied, so he'd been hoping all this time there was a technical error.
"You're a sweet guy, but a terrible liar," she said.
"Sorry."
"You don't like
me
, sweetheart. You don't really know me. You just like the way I treat you. And that's a good thing, because I'm taking off for the summer. So I'm going to introduce you to someone who I suspect you'll get along with very well while I'm on vacation."
His heart broke only out of habit. Then he managed to take in her words. She was right. He didn't know the first thing about Ms. Hartford. All he knew were his sessions, and the way he felt when under her power. And her being twice his age was fun for his discipline sessions, but maybe less so for dating. She probably still used Facebook. "You're right, I think."
"I am," she said, hugging away any still-hurt feelings. "If it doesn't quite work out tonight for any reason, don't fret. I'll be back in September when you start your third year."
"Thank you, ma'am," he said. "Um, can I ask - is this about sessions or... are you- are you matchmaking?"
She lifted up one corner of a furtive smile before straightening up her expression quickly. "Why would you think that, young man?"
Emerson waited for the doorbell to ring, taking a calming breath. Matchmaking or not, he was a shy guy, and his fantasies and needs often conflicted with that part of him. So right now it felt like the very first day he came here to take his well-earned spanking over Ms. Hartford's lap. That day, with just her hand alone she spanked him to tears. Well, maybe the guilt over cheating on his exam helped. In the end, he was never more grateful he gathered up the courage to go here. Hopefully today would prove to be the same.
A doorbell snapped him out of his worries. The new disciplinarian came in, and Emerson stood up all of a sudden like it was the nineteen-forties. If he had a hat on he would have removed it.
She wore a black dress that really complimented her figure and made her bubblegum-pink hair stand out. Aside from the fun hair dye, she was such a natural beauty that he immediately looked away, the way a person doesn't look into the sun. Then his eyes were helplessly drawn back to her, addicted.
His first instinct was to mentally compliment her perfect bone structure and facial symmetry. Then he admonished himself for that thought. So weird. It would even make other art students recoil. Still, he wanted to draw her now.
With heart-sinking horror, he remembered exactly what would happen tonight. She wasn't here to be drawn. His mind raced around the concept that she'd see him naked soon.
"Emerson, this is Sakura," said Ms. Hartford. "You'll call her 'miss' tonight."
He was pretty sure she looked Japanese, but now was positive with a pretty name like that. "Hi, miss," he said, wishing he had more to add. At least he could be proud that he'd refrained from mentioning her bone structure.
"He's very shy," said Ms. Hartford, gently rubbing his shoulder.
"Aww," said Sakura.
"But he's a good boy. Very obedient. And he opens up a lot more once you get to know him."
He felt his face going hot at Ms. Hartford's perception of him. Not that she was wrong about any of it.
"I guess you go to Carmichael University."
"Yes, miss."
"He's a fine arts major," said Ms. Hartford. "I don't imagine a biochem major like you would have seen him around campus much."
"Oh, that's probably right. You'll have to show me your art sometime." Even if she was just being polite, it was nice to hear. Usually people just made snide comments about his future prospects in the job market.
The two women were now looking over all his forms, getting right to work. The pair perused his preferences and absolutely-nots and it made him so embarrassed already. Sakura knew he'd checked off those boxes, asking for such unusual and sometimes humiliating treatment. He was becoming ashamed of himself rapidly, wondering if he came off like a total pervert.
The younger woman luckily shared a lovely quality with Ms. Hartford; she didn't laugh at his submissive and masochistic desires. Maybe she'd laugh later on, while he was in his submissive role and they were in their dominant roles - but the real Sakura didn't laugh at the real Emerson. That already put him more at ease.
"Okay, Sakura. I'm going to teach you how to keep a boy like Emerson in line."
"I can't wait," she said.
"Red for stop, yellow for slow down, green for good, right?" checked Ms. Hartford.
"Yes, ma'am," he said quietly.
Ms. Hartford was putting away the paperwork and straightening her clothes. His heart pounded hard. They were about to start, weren't they? As if in response, Ms. Hartford took a seat on the couch. Sakura sat right beside her at the older disciplinarian's behest.
"Emerson normally wants to be punished in a domestic setting, so I tend to keep him in the living room, and not in the more stylized settings upstairs. Now, let's see, I'm sure the guiltiest conscience I know can come up with a good reason for a punishment today."
He nodded slowly, ideas already brimming over. But one stood above the rest, mostly because it actually could cost him thousands of dollars if he got caught somehow.
"Why do you need a good spanking today, Emerson?"
With only a bit of guilty hesitation, he shared his latest crime. It was a very real one, too. "I downloaded a lot of pirated games last night."
"What a naughty boy," said Sakura. "That's stealing!"
"Yes, miss! I know." It was hard to be scolded suddenly by the beautiful angel sitting there before him. He was doubly ashamed.
"How many games?" asked Ms. Hartford.
