Chapter Three -- Teacher's Surrender
Cori Goodman arrived home at 11:00 AM after spending the night with Virginia Lee, the school principal where she taught. It had truly been an unbelievable evening.
It'd all started yesterday at school when she received her invitation to Ms. Lee's house. At the time she'd viewed it more as an official summons than anything else. After all, there'd been some obvious tension -- sexual tension, from Cori's perspective -- between the two women. Cori had no doubt this would be her official 'dressing down.' In a sense that's exactly what it was.
But it got complicated when Virginia introduced another lover to the game -- her master. Besides being the principal's master, he was also a senior at their school and one of Cori's English Lit students. There was no way Ms. Lee should have been in that relationship and certainly no way Cori could allow herself to fall into the same trap.
But Virginia was in that relationship and Cori did, indeed, fall into the very same trap.
And now it was the morning after and time to reflect; to reflect and to stop this nonsense before it got out of hand!
"My God, woman, what were you thinking!" she shouted out loud to her empty house. "You've risked everything! This has got to stop!"
Funny, but she'd actually tried to talk to Virginia about it this morning, but the Principal had sidestepped each of her queries. Finally, as they kissed goodbye, Virginia ran her hands through her hair and smiled. 'Give it time,' she'd said. 'Give it time.'
Cori made her way through the house and back to the bathroom. Even though she'd showered with Virginia earlier, she felt the need for a long, reflective soak.

It was 2:00 o'clock in the afternoon when the doorbell rang. Cori, dressed in her favorite blue jeans and a white cotton tank top with no bra, was sitting at the dining room table grading papers.
'Who could that be?' she thought as she rose and started for the door. She reached the door, looked through the peephole and froze.
It was him! Brian Bitner, wrestler extraordinaire. And last night, at least, her Master.
"No!" she hissed. He was not her master and she was going to make damn sure he knew it! So she took a deep breath to steady her nerves and pulled opened the door.
"Come on in, Brian," she said without the usual niceties. "We need to talk."
Without a word, or even a smile to betray his feelings, Brian entered the house. He set an envelope down on the small table beside the door and followed her into the house.
While still in the foyer, she turned to face him. "About last night," she started out, a hint of nervous flutter in her voice. "Brian, it was one the most erotic nights of my life and I'll never forget it. But it can't happen again. You can see that, can't you?"
But Brian didn't answer, leaving Miss Goodman to continue her oration unassisted.
"I mean it's just not right. I could lose everything. And the damage it could do you is immeasurable."
Still, Brian maintained his stoic silence. It occurred to Cori that just maybe, she wasn't getting through to the young man.
"Brian, can you at least talk to me? It's hard to have an adult conversation if you won't at least say something."
In answer, Brian took a small step towards her.
'Not the answer I was looking for,' Cori thought as she matched his step forward with a backward one of her own.
"Brian, please say something," she said as he took another step towards her while she took another away.
"I think you'd better leave now," she said, realizing that things were rapidly getting out of hand. She took another step backwards, this time bumping into the wall.
He took a final step forward, and the gap between them was gone
"Please, Brian. We can't do this. It's not right," Cori pleaded. Her mind was screaming at her 'run -- get out while you can!' But her body refused to move.
He reached out and touched her cheek with his hand, sliding the hand to the back of her neck.
As he leaned slightly forward and pulled her towards him, she tried again. "We can't . . . It's not right." But her voice was silenced as her mouth was covered by his.
She stood there, eyes as big as headlights as he began covering her lips with soft, tender kisses. And while she didn't return his kisses, neither did she pull away.
He pulled back slightly and looked into her eyes. She opened her mouth to speak. She meant to tell him to stop, that it wasn't right and that he had to go. She had every intention of seizing control of the situation once and for all. But just as she opened her mouth he was on her again, and this time he had her.
Her eyes closed instinctively as his lips covered hers and his tongue slid into her mouth. He pulled her hard against his body as she melted against him. But when she felt his hands moving to the bottom of her tank top, she broke the kiss and from somewhere, found the presence of mind to make one final attempt.
"Please don't," she whispered, but they both knew the words were hollow.
He hooked his thumbs under the front of her top and slowly slid it up her body. He slid it over her tummy and over her braless breasts before his thumbs reappeared through the opening at her neck. Finally, he stretched the top forward and slid it over her head and onto her back, leaving her totally bare in front with the tank top stretching from arm to arm behind her. While she was not exactly helpless, the top did restrict her movements enough to remind her just who was in charge.
He reached for her breasts, noticing how erect her nipples were. And as he twirled them between his fingers, he leaned forward to kiss her again. This time she returned his kiss with a hunger he hadn't previously felt.
She felt his hands abandon her nipples and drift down her stomach. Then she felt the snap of her jeans popping free and her zipper sliding down. When he released her from his kiss he knelt down, sliding her jeans and panties down her legs until they lay bunched up around her ankles.
Still on his knees, he looked up at her. Shaking noticeably, she diverted her eyes, unable to meet his gaze. He smiled as he looked her over. He wasn't even allowing her the honor of being completely naked, choosing to leave her encumbered by the tank top that stretched behind her back and the blue jeans that were balled up around her ankles. Allowing her to be completely naked -- in his mind, at least -- would be paramount to allowing her some small sense of honor. And after all her talk, after her big speech about how they couldn't do this and about how wrong it was, he wasn't about to allow her any honor -- at least not yet.
He allowed himself a brief moment of reflection. 'But damn, she's hot,' he thought. 'This is sure going to make English Lit fun!' And that was something he never, ever, thought could happen!
He reached out to stroke her thighs, stroking up the outside in a long, slow motion before sliding his hands back down. He slid them up again, this time diverting from her hips to her stomach, continuing upward until they covered her breasts. He squeezed them briefly before moving to the nipples, pulling and tugging on their extended tips. And then the hands retreated, sliding once again over her stomach and down the outside of her legs.
The hands moved to the inside of her thighs, sliding their way gently to her center, where he slid two fingers from his right hand into her waiting pussy.
She gasped, her knees nearly buckling.
"My, but you're wet today, Miss Goodman. Is it something I've done?"
She closed her eyes as his fingers slid in and out of her wetness, but said nothing.
He allowed her a moment's enjoyment before withdrawing the fingers to her outer lips. "Now, let's talk about our relationship, shall we?"
Her eyes popped open and she met his gaze with a desperate, if not puzzled, look.
"Tell me," he said in a slightly softer than normal tone. "Who am I?"
She hesitated, but not for as long as he'd expected. "You are my master."
