"Hey, can we try that one?" Ashley held her latest find up in the air.
Tanya regarded the shiny wooden cane with a raised eyebrow. "I don't think you're ready for that one, yet. Maybe find something more beginner-friendly."
It might've been a mistake to show Ashley her kink box already. Barely a week had passed since Tanya had asked Ashley if she was willing to try some not so vanilla stuff and since then there'd been no stopping her girlfriend. Turned out, Ashley had been a closeted sub for all her sexual history and what she was lacking in experience, she more than made up for in enthusiasm.
Not that Tanya was such a veteran herself. Her track record were a three month relationship with Mary, which had run its course when it'd become clear that Mary really wasn't a sub at heart. And, of course, the best night of her life: The play date with Layla. One night of, in equal parts, kinky sex and cuddles. It would've turned into more than a one night stand, if not for the fact that Layla lived on the other side of the planet and had only come over for a convention weekend.
So, truth be told, most of the toys in her box hadn't seen much use, if any, but Tanya liked having them around nevertheless. It felt good to own five different spanking implements. And you had to be prepared in case an opportunity presented itself. Like it was doing now.
"It can't be that much worse then the flogger, can it?" Ashley asked. "And the flogger was no problem at all."
Tanya gave her a weak smile. Sweet inexperienced Ashley. The cane had made even Layla scream, and that girl had had a remarkable pain tolerance. "Believe me, you wouldn't survive five strikes. Two if I don't hold back. How about we try the belt today? That's also fun and we can work ourselves up from there."
"Wanna bet?" Ashley asked before Tanya had even finished talking.
"Bet what?"
"I say I can take five hits. Easy." Ashley twirled the end of her ponytail around her fingers. Even in the short time they'd been together, Tanya had learned to recognize the gesture. It always lead to things happening, none of these things being innocent.
"And I say you're overestimating yourself there." Tanya already knew that she couldn't dissuade Ashley that easily, not when her girlfriend had already gotten so exited. But then again, did she really need to? A quick demonstration couldn't hurt. Well, it would hurt. A lot, actually, but that was the point. "We can give it a try, but if I'm right, you've got to clean the kitchen. Still in?"
Ashley gave her hair a last twirl before she threw her ponytail back over her shoulder. "Okay, but if I win, you'll have to clean it."
Tanya tried and failed to make sense of that. "It's my kitchen. I have to clean it anyway."
"Yes, but I'll be watching. And you'll be naked."
"Oh." Tanya looked at her grinning girlfriend. "That's not very subby of you."
"But it's fun." Ashley came closer. Close enough that their noses almost touched. "Scared that you might lose after all?"
A bit, maybe, Tanya thought. She was still convinced that it was too early to break out the cane, but Ashley was so eager to push her own boundaries, she might just make it. Especially if she had additional incentives. However, Tanya wasn't going to chicken out just because there was a chance of losing. That only made it more interesting. "Wanna up the stakes?"
Ashley giggled. "Sure. If I win, I get to spank you. And then you'll clean the kitchen. Naked, so I have a good view of your red ass."
Maybe Tanya had labeled Ashley the wrong way. Seemed like she'd stumbled upon a switch after all. The idea exited her more than she would've thought. Ashley's deliciously kissable lips so close to her might've clouded her judgment a bit, but at the moment she wouldn't have minded being put over her girlfriend's knees. She also didn't mind showing Ashley who was the boss, though.
"And if I win, you clean the kitchen. Naked. And you'll wear nipple clamps while you do it."
They'd played with the clamps once and that had been enough for Ashley to develop an intense love-hate relationship with them.
"Deal!" Ashley closed the gap and kissed Tanya.
She only stayed in control for a second. The moment their lips touched, Tanya wrapped her arms around Ashley and shoved her tongue into her mouth. All the talk about the bet had turned her on to the point where she'd have been ready to postpone everything and drag Ashley into bed with her right away. Well, almost. Getting to use the cane again was definitely worth having to wait for the sex.
"Get ready," Tanya ordered as she let go of her girlfriend.
"Right away. Mistress." Ashley giggled at the last word. Tanya let it slide. There was enough punishment on its way already.
With swift movements Ashley took off all of her clothes. Not that she had to be naked for a caning, but Tanya had already learned about this particular kink of her girlfriend: Ashley loved showing off her body and she especially loved being nude while Tanya still had her clothes on. Tanya saw no reason not to indulge her. It did add to the dominating aspect and as long as she could take off her clothes when the real sex started, she didn't mind staying dressed a bit longer.
"Bend forward, hands on the bed!"
Ashley twirled her ponytail once more before she followed the command. Tanya picked up the cane.
"Remember: You can give up at any time. But if you do, I win."
"And if I take five hits, I win." Ashley grinned. Her hips shook slightly. Tanya was sure, if she'd reached between her girlfriend's legs, her fingers would've come back drenched.
"Your hands need to stay right where they are."
Ashley nodded and bit her lip. "Do it!"
