We didnât get together the day before Thanksgiving. In fact, I didnât call him until Saturday. He picked up the phone and said in a brisk tone, âMcCracken. Go.â
âAnd how is my naughty little bear?â I murmured into the receiver, and heard his breath hitch.
âAh! Uh⌠Could you give me an hour and a half to get rid of my houseguests?â he asked me in a breathless rush.
âI wasnât going to rush over there immediately with a whip in my hand, if thatâs what youâre worried about,â I returned dryly, and could have sworn I heard him exhale in relief.
âListen, itâs not that I donât want you over hereâbelieve me, I do,â he stressed half under his breath. âItâs just that Iâve got family members over for lunch, and weâre just about to sit down to eat.â
âHow about four oâclock, sharp?â I compromised. âThat way youâll have all the way to three-thirty to enjoy their company and send them on their way.â
âThank you, Mistress,â he murmured in my ear.
âYes, I know Iâm kind and sweet. Donât forget to remind me how many demerits you still have on your tally when I arriveâŚand how youâre supposed to properly greet me,â I drawled.
âOf course not, Miâuh, yeah, thatâs right, but Iâll have to get on that after my family leaves; I should be free to go to the office by three-thirty,â he stated quite a bit louder than before. Apparently someone had come within hearing range of the other end of the line. I heard the sound of his hand muffling the receiver, and the murmur of voices as he explained something to whoever was with him. A few moments later, he came back, removing his hand and restoring the sound quality. âSorry about that. Iâll see you at four sharp?â
âOn the dot. And unless you want to be humiliated in front of your family, theyâd better be gone,â I warned him. âBecause you will greet me naked in the punishment position, when I walk in that door.â
âYes, Mistress,â he agreed huskily. And then ended the call with a click from the receiver. Grinning, I hung up my own phone and started that most feminine of debates: whatever should I wear?
***************************
All seven feet of delectable, naked, muscular male knelt exactly where he should kneel, one carpeted inch away from the slate tiles lining the entryway. For a bear, my blond sub wasnât very hairy, but then heâd only been a bear that one time, in that Halloween costume. Still, it was as good a name as any, and reminded him of our first meeting, when Iâd caught him drunkenly peeing on the Ladiesâ Room floor.
His arms were tucked behind his short-haired head, the collar was buckled around his neck, and his knees were far enough apart that his legs did not touch his meat, but he was slouching forward, not arching his back. Protecting his belly, albeit no doubt unconsciously. He was supposed to be exposing it to me. I turned around, set down the picnic basket, pulled out my notebook, straightened and made sure to lock the door, then turned to face him again. âGreetings, Mr. Bear.â
âGreetings, Mistress. I have five demerits on my tally,â he recited dutifully.
âThat is true. But you have forgotten something, and it will earn you five demerits,â I informed him coolly, still clad in my overcoat and gloves.
âWhat have I forgotten, Mistress?â he asked, straightening up a little.
âThat,â I told him, and pointed the end of my pen at his movement. âThe punishment position is naked, sitting on your heels with your knees widespread, your hands laced behind your headâŚand your back straight, or even arched, exposing yourself to me. Youâre slouching, Mr. Bear. Thatâs five demerits for poor posture.â
He immediately straightened his spine, his somewhat flaccid penis thickening slightly at the thought of such extra punishment. His reposturing changed the crunch of those eight-pack abs, smoothing them out a bit and reducing their definition. I was sorry to see such marvelous musculature vanish, but that was alright; theyâd be tensing up again soon enough. It was good to hear his penitence expressed, as he murmured, âSorry, Mistress.â
I marked the demerits on the tally page, then returned it to the basket. Drawing off my gloves, I once more went through the winter ritual of stuffing each one into its own pocketâthat way I never lost them, and never fumbled over which glove went on which hand. Then I unbuttoned the plain black trenchcoat and hung it up on the coatrack. The sharp intake of breath behind me let me know how much Mr. Bear was enjoying the brand-new view.
I wore the same black suede heels as before, but this time with fishnet stockings that ran from my toes all the way up under the broad black thong dividing my buttocks. A red satin-and-lace garter circled my left thigh above the knee, a matching bow stitched to the outside, the satin ribbon ends trailing halfway down my calf. As I turned around, he got an eyeful of the red-lace trimmmed bustier supporting my cleavage, and the matching red arm-garter dangling its ribbons from my right bicep. This time, Iâd left my curly chestnut hair down, where it fell to mid-back, and curled a couple locks over one shoulder, teasing the curves of my breasts enticingly.
âOh, MistressâŚâ escaped Mr. Bearâs lips, his expression amazed as his gaze darted everywhere. The semi-turgid state of his cock changed, lengthening and thickening perceptibly in little jerks and twitches of visually stimulated desire. If this was all it took to get him hard, he was almost disappointingly easy to pleaseâthis wasnât even my fanciest Domina outfit! âŚThen again, I always liked getting a rise out of my men, and some types of standing ovation were better than others.
âDo you like what you see, Mr. Bear?â I inquired politely.
âOh, yes, Mistress!â he swore fervently, abdomen muscles tensing, just as Iâd predicted.
I made a leg daintily, staying close to the door. âCome show me your appreciation, then.â
