Stuart took the wooden spoon from Lydia's hand. He turned and walked over to the dresser, opened a drawer and replaced the spoon. He closed the drawer, opened another, and brought out a pair of soft cuffs, a pair of leather ankle cuffs and a silver ball flogger.
"Lets change the pace a little," Stuart said to Lydia. "Untie the rope," he said, indicating the cords that bound his slave, Sasha, to the pole. It was fine white synthetic rope - Stuart enjoyed using this type of rope because it was possible to bind more loops around the torso and hands which gave a much prettier effect, and was also more cutting in the event of a struggle. But he never needed to worry about that with Sasha - he had trained her extremely well. In the beginning, she had suffered extensive rope burns, but now, he noted there were rarely any marks when he loosened the ties.
Lydia dragged the last of the rope from around Sasha's waist and brought her arms down to her sides.
"Turn around," Lydia commanded and Sasha did so immediately. Lydia grasped the carriage of the zip at the neck on the back of Sasha's dress and undid it down to its base. Lydia dragged the dress off Sasha's shoulders and allowed it to drop to the floor. She was impressed to see that underneath the dress Sasha wore a well made half-corset made of creamy satin.
"Step," Lydia told Sasha, and the girl-slave stepped out of her crumpled dress. Lydia kicked it out of the way, wondering if it would collect dirt and dust smears as she did. "Hands against the pole," Lydia demanded. Sasha raised her arms over her head and bent forward to place them against the pole she'd been tied to for the last two or so hours. Lydia pushed her booted foot between Sasha's ankles and shifted the girl's right foot outwards. She then scuffed the girl's left foot in the opposite direction, positioning her so that her legs were well spread.
Stuart stood behind Lydia, admiring the way she had posed his slave.
"Conducting an inspection?" he said quietly in Lydia's ear.
Lydia did not speak. She simply bent forward and thrust the fingers of her black-gloved right hand into the girl's trench. The smooth leather slipped along the soaked pink skin.
"She enjoyed her punishment," Lydia stated.
