(Author's note: for all those that sent kind words and wondered when or whether I would return, thank you for notes of encouragement. Being a mother, wife, and member of the workforce has kept me exceptionally busy these last few months. For those who had hoped I had written my last, my apologies for disappointing you.
As I have not written for a while, it probably makes sense to repeat the following disclaimer:
Please note this is a continuation of my story "For The Weekend", and will probably make more sense if you read that first. I like to develop plot and characters, so if you are looking for a quick read, this may not be for you. While I do my best not to test the reader's willful suspension of disbelief too much, this ultimately is a story of fantasy—some of mine, some of my husband's, and some suggestions from the readers who have been encouraging me to continue this story. This is not real-life—no one catches diseases in this world, no one gets pregnant unless they want to, no one is physically or emotionally scarred. If you are not into stories about willingly submissive women, this story is probably not for you.)

"Well, THAT was interesting," Anne says as we pull out of the parking lot, trying for understatement of the year.
"Mrs. Beauchemin is a dominatrix," Tim says quietly. "Karen, remember the club Ian and Andrea talked about your first weekend? She's well known there. She actually teaches bondage and domination to those who have an interest. I'm going to guess the couple in there are students."
"Did you know how she was going to demonstrate her products?" I ask.
"No, Andrea just mentioned she had taken a class or two from her. She didn't say anything about her selling techniques, just that she had a thriving business. Did you enjoy the demonstration?"
"She scared me a little bit," Anne quickly admitted. "I've never seen a guy treated like that. Do you think he was liking it?"
"I'm willing to bet he was. All doms have a release word or phrase, he could have stopped whenever he wanted."
We are soon back at the hotel, the chill air of the parking garage assaulting our legs and bare asses, the skirts too short to provide much warmth as we stroll to the elevator at Tim's pace. I am grateful we don't have to go through the lobby dressed as we are, but my relief is short-lived as we stop at the first floor to let two middle-aged men on. They both break into grins as they spot Anne and I, Tim seeming not to notice. The door closes, and we all look forward, the men stealing peeks at us and nudging each other.
"So, who won the game?" one finally asks, unable to resist.
"I'm going to," Tim tells him calmly as we stop at the seventh floor. We step off and Tim makes sure to raise the backs of our skirts as I hear the doors begin to close behind us. I feel cool air, and know the two men got a show.
Tim opens the door to our room and steps in behind us. Anne and I drop our bags and she looks at me, as if asking for guidance. I begin removing my jacket, then push my skirt down and lift my jersey over my head, revealing myself to him. Anne takes my lead and does the same, and in a moment he is presented with two naked women standing by the door.
He smiles at us, but leaves us standing there as he pours himself a drink. He does not forget us completely, and soon we each are holding a glass of wine in our hands, still standing by our discarded clothes. Tim kicks off his shoes and looks at us with a bemused smile.
"Anne, one of the things I have stressed to Karen is that she must do as I say, when I say it. I expect this from you this weekend, as well.
I bring this up because Karen forgot one of my rules when you both first arrived. She—and you—must remove your clothes when you enter this room unless I tell you otherwise. Now, you didn't know this when you first came in, but you do now, and you did the right thing just a few moments ago.
Karen, however, knew the rule, but didn't comply when her husband brought her to me a few hours ago. I have to assume she didn't feel the need to while he was here, but she was wrong. So, she must be punished." This declaration produces both excitement and fear in me.
Tim leaves us standing where we are and moves to a bag on the floor near the coffee table. After a moment of rummaging, he stands up holding what appears to be black stick with strands hanging from it. I grow more nervous—what is he planning to do with that?
He comes back to where we are standing and takes my wineglass from my hand. "Karen, go bend over the arm of the couch, please." I do as I'm told, trusting that Tim is just looking to make a point with my friend, and not really hurt me.
He moves to where I am bent over and after putting my glass down, kicks my ankles apart to open me more to his gaze.
"Anne, come here." I do not dare look, but the sound of her glass clinking on the table tells me he has taken hers as well.
"The reason I didn't take up Mrs. Beauchemin's offer to view her cat-o-nine tails is because I already have one," he tells us. So that's what a cat-o-nine tails is, I think to myself. Another useful piece of information learned... I feel the leather strands lightly flick across my upturned ass. My mind races back to the dominatrix's description of the lines hers could leave on unprotected flesh. I shiver a bit, Tim knows I don't like pain...
He uses the same light flick on my cheeks a couple more times, more of a tickle than a sting with the force he is swinging it. There is a pause, and then those same strands are flicking between my spread legs, landing lightly against my pussy lips. The possibility he might swing harder makes me flinch a bit.
Tim chuckles a bit, then stops. "I think she's getting the idea of what this can feel like in the right hands," she tells my friend, "but I want to make sure. Here, I want you to leave a stripe or two on that ass of hers."
"I can't hurt her—she's my friend!" Anne protests, her voice full of shock and conflict.
"There's no better way for you both to learn," he says calmly. There is another pause, followed by an anguished groan, and her first blow lands on my right cheek. I jump, but realize the blow was not much more than what Tim had done a few moments earlier. He laughs. "Your arm will get tired before you leave any marks that way," he admonishes. "Harder."
Her next blow is harder, but not by much. "I'm sorry," she tells him, "I can't do it. Can I have her punishment instead?"
"As well, you mean," he says in that same steady voice. "If you can't do it, I'll have to punish you as well. Would you like that, to be bent over next to her while I use that on both of you?"
"If you have to," she says, her voice subdued, but to my experienced ear, in a play-acting tone. "But I'm sorry, she's my best friend..."
There is a pause, and I suspect Anne is about to be told to join me on the arm of the couch. "I will have to punish you," he says finally, "but I have a feeling you might enjoy it more than you should. So, both of your punishments will be determined later."
"Let's see if our shopping trip had an effect on either one of you. Why don't you both go in the other room and lie on the bed?" His tone has changed to something lighter, as if he's suggesting we see what's on TV. I find myself both relieved and disappointed by this delay of sentence.
Anne moves first, moving to the other room and going to the side of the bed before climbing on and lying back, her head on the pillow, hands folded on her stomach, legs crossed at her ankles. I straighten and join her, lying to her right, assuming the same position she has taken. Even after the past few weeks of activity, I still feel a little strange laying next to my best friend, both of us completely exposed to this man, available for his pleasure.
Tim follows us in and looks us over as he takes another swig from his glass. He smiles, and after putting down his drink, begins to remove his clothing. His shirt is first, revealing that chest full of silvery hair I have grown to enjoy running my fingers through, then his socks, then finally his pants and underwear. He stands there in all his glory, his erection proudly pointing upwards. His eyes never leave us as he begins to casually fist his cock, kneeling on the edge of the bed before shuffling towards us. His free hand reaches for my right ankle first, pulling it away from its counterpart, towards Anne's legs. I take the hint and move my other leg to expose myself fully to him. He repeats the process with Anne's left leg, moving it so it crosses mine below the shin. She is a little slower to grasp what he wants, and he takes his hand off of his hardness long enough to reach for her other ankle. She suddenly understands and spreads for him, her leg moving to the edge of the bed.
