As I waited, I re-read the e-mail.
"I am sending my wife to you for discipline. Her behaviour is damaging our marriage and if something radical does not change I fear that divorce is inevitable. Your services have been recommended; I hope you can help.
As background, my wife, Lucy, is a very intelligent woman. She attended a top class boarding school in her youth and has a psychology degree. She works in HR and holds a senior position with a major high street bank.
She already has one failed marriage behind her, and I fear a second will soon follow.
We have both agreed to this course of action and Lucy will as discussed attend your residence on Saturday to begin her training."
I had spoken to Lucy's husband on the phone. He was a very successful businessman with something to do with generative AI. For all his obvious intelligence he seems to be lacking some basic people skills, especially concerning his wife. The large fee I was been offered did help to overcome any qualms I may have had.
Lucy was late. Lateness is one of my bugbears as it shows a lack of respect. This was even before I had met her. At ten past five, the doorbell rang, and I opened the door to find a very flustered although attractive woman who I guessed to be in her early thirties.
"I am so sorry I am late; I hate being late but the sat nav threw a wobbly and directed me up a dead end."
"Never let it happen again," I replied. "Come into my study."
I led the way and sat at my desk. Lucy had to stand as I had provided no chair for her.
"You know why you are here?"
She nodded.
"Explain it to me."
She hesitated. "I am.... I am here for training." She stammered.
"Do you need training?"
"My husband says so."
"Do you agree with him?"
There was a pause. "Yes, I want us to be happy, neither of us are at the moment."
"What do you understand by the word training? What do you think it entails?"
"I think you are going to punish me."
"That is part of it certainly. I will punish you if you deserve it, I will reward you if you warrant it. I will use and humiliate you if I wish to. Does that seem about right?"
Again, a pause, "Yes that is what I expected."
Her body language spoke of nervousness as you would expect but there was something else.
"I have several clients mainly men, so having you is an exciting change. Let's us begin."
I sat back and looked at the woman in front of me. She was attractive, with ash blonde hair, dressed as you would expect a personal assistant or top-notch HR executive to be. Business smart it would be described, skirt, blouse, nyloned legs, and shoes with a two-inch heel. She was well-spoken as befitted a public-school educated girl.
"Blouse off." I wanted to see how quickly she would respond to my request. I was not disappointed. She undid her buttons and removed her blouse to reveal nice medium-sized breasts encased in a baby blue lacy bra. She was still holding her blouse.
"You can lay that on the desk."
I stood and walked behind her.
"So, is it true what they say about girls boarding schools?" I asked.
"It depends on what you mean."
"That there is a lot of illicit bedroom activity between the girls."
There was again a pause before Lucy replied. "Yes, that sort of thing did happen."
"Did you partake in this practice?"
"I will plead the fifth amendment on that one."
"So, in other words, you had relationships with some of the girls. Very interesting. You may now remove your bra."
She reached around and unfastened herself and laid the bra on the desk. Whilst still standing behind her I reached round and cupped each breast in my hands. "So, the girls played with these did they?"
Lucy gulped and whispered, "Yes."
"Did you enjoy it?"
"At the time yes."
I squeezed and massaged her breasts and felt her nipples becoming very erect. I tweaked her left nipple and drew a gasp from her.
I went to the top shelf on my bookcase and took hold of one of my canes, I laid it on the desk in front of Lucy and resumed my seat. I waited; Lucy stared at the cane but did not speak.
"Do you know what this is?" I asked.
"A cane."
"Very good, have you ever been caned?"
"Yes."
This surprised me, most people of her age are unfamiliar with the cane, let alone having been caned themselves. "Who caned you?"
"My first husband was very strict with me; I was regularly subject to spankings and canings."
I even more surprised and intrigued now.
"Did you enjoy the experience?"
"Nobody enjoys being caned at the time, it hurts. But I did enjoy the thrill of corporal punishment and the spice it added to the relationship."
"Why did you split up with your husband?"
"He was an airline pilot, and he ran off with an air hostess, I was devastated."
"I see and then you met your present husband?"
"Yes, Hugh is very different, very intelligent, a great provider he does try very hard. But there is little excitement."
