We enter the living room, and you notice that I have a Middle Eastern music CD in the CD player, so you know that I will be playing music for you to strip by. This is a source of pleasure to me, to see your body swaying provocatively and becoming slowly more revealed to me as the clothes drop off. You have mixed feelings about it because you enjoy knowing that you are arousing me with your body, but you have never felt at ease with your body - it just doesn't look good enough to satisfy you. You fret about the size of the breasts, slight swells in the hips and legs, things that I have repeatedly and sometimes exasperatedly told you don't matter. "And if they don't matter to me, to your man, love," I had said, "Why should they matter at all? Your body serves only two purposes sexually - to please me and to please you. If it pleases me, you are the only obstacle to your own happiness. Learn to enjoy your own body as much as I do." I have even given you disciplinary spankings when I have caught you disappointed in your body, for I do not want criticism of you. Still you do not feel happy with your physical being.
I grin at you, a grin containing nothing but lust and enjoyment, and start up the CD player. Exotic music, with plenty of strings, fills the room and you kick off your shoes and begin to dance to it. Your arms snake about, twining over your head as your body slowly gyrates and your hips flex. You look at me and slowly bring your tongue across your lips as your hands snake downwards and undo your top blouse button. You bring your hands down to your sides and continue swaying. Your hands slowly rise and undo another button. You enjoy this part of the dance, when you can sense the slow pace of the music, the dance, and your strip challenging the eagerness you know so well in me. It is a small challenge of wills, one which you will win because you control the pace of the action, you are the slow one here. You finish the last blouse button and the blouse flaps, alternating open then closed as you move, your bra playing a game of peekaboo with me. There is something that seems Middle Eastern to you in wearing your blouse as an open vest.
Leaving your blouse hanging from your shoulders, you slide your hands down your sides sinuously and hook the thumbs under your skirt. You slowly push your thumbs down and wriggle the skirt down off your hips, enjoying the feeling you have of being sexy, synchronizing your movements to the chords of the sensual music. You sneak a sidelong peek at me and are gratified to see how rapt my attention is to your dancing, "almost like a ravenous wolf", you think smilingly. The skirt drops to your feet and you snag it with your foot and kick it to a corner of the room. You turn to face me and shimmy your shoulders until the blouse falls as well. You snag your blouse with your other foot and kick it across the room as well. You are now wearing nothing but bra and panties.
Suddenly, the dreaded wave of self consciousness attacks you. You know that I enjoy your body and become angry when you don't feel comfortable with it. Yet, from beyond your control, the negative body feelings rush in, voices you can't suppress: "hips and thighs getting flabby", "breasts not round enough", "thick legs". You remember all the times that you compared yourself with the pinup girls, with the Playboy pictures, with the cheerleaders and the... The music stops, abruptly.
I am looking at you, but my expression is angry, not one of rapt attention now. After turning off the CD, I stride rapidly towards you. You cannot meet my eyes and look at the floor. I hold you under your chin and force you to face me, to see the exasperation in my eyes. You feel ashamed, you know that you are responsible for breaking the mood...
"What's wrong? Are you feeling ashamed of your body again?" Feeling broken, you nod your head tearfully, even as I hold your chin. There are times when your thoughts cannot be private, almost like I can see into your mind, and this is one of them. "Damn it, I keep telling you what a wonderful body you have, what an instrument of pleasure it is to me!" I take my hand from your chin and with two hands unclasp your bra and fling it open so that it hangs limply from your shoulders. "Look at these breasts," I shout, grasping one in each hand and squeezing. "They are beautiful, perfect globes!" As I squeeze, you welcome the pain, feeling that you deserve the shouting and the physical punishment you are getting. "Look at these lovely nipples, pure pleasure to pinch, suck, and kiss" - hard pinch of each one. I release the tender breasts and drop my hands to your panties and rip them off you, tearing the fabric.
"Look at your womanhood," and a hard smack there makes you jump, "soft and slick inside whenever I enter you. Look at that rump," and my hand cracks onto it, sounding like a rifle shot. "Don't you notice the looks it gets when you walk down the street? Firm and round, a dream to spank." Five more rapid-fire smacks pepper your bottom, each one sending a strong message to you. Then, suddenly, the storm seems over for the moment. You raise your eyes to look at me and I look tired, as though something's left me. You feel awful, knowing that the yawning gulf between us has widened and that it has depleted me...
"All right, let's get this punishment over with, " I snap, and sit down on the couch, in the middle. You obediently sit at my right and then lie face down over my lap. You miss the feel of my hand guiding you, caressing you as it holds you between your shoulder blades and pushes you gently down, but you know there will be none of that in a punishment spanking. The hard smacks begin, cracking off your cheeks, bringing the pain and the flame out instantly, not slowly and gently like you love. You cry with the pain and the hurt and the feeling of having let both of us down, tears leaving shining paths down your cheeks and roll into your open, bawling mouth, making bad, salty-tasting memories. Through the haze of pain and hurt and guilt and my anger, you feel your breasts and pussy longing for the teasing and touching they would get in a playful spanking, your entire self longing to swallow my cock and please me, knowing there will be none of that now... When I let you up, I tell you that we will discuss this more tomorrow. You know that your torrid bottom will remind you all day...
When I come home next day, you have made an elegant dinner and dressed in a low-cut evening gown. Slow, romantic music fills the house. For some reason, although it has never worked yet, you hope that the ambience will make me forget my commitment to punish you further. It doesn't work this time either, although you notice me casting an appreciative glance at your exposed cleavage. You expect a peremptory order to get a paddle, but instead I toss two round-trip airline tickets to Las Vegas on the table. I hold you by your shoulders and look you directly in the eyes and explain to you that I have made a few phone calls and secured a performance for you as a stripper in a Vegas show. "If you won't take my word for what a desirable woman you are, perhaps you'll take the word of several hundred men in the audience," I tell you.
When we leave McCarran Airport several days later and head to downtown Las Vegas, you feel like a child again and realize that it's been too long since our last vacation. However, you know that tonight you will be performing, dancing naked in front of hundreds of strangers. Your persistently glowing bottom reminds you of this - last night I gave you another punishment spanking to ensure that all day today you would remember the true reason of our trip. We tour the Strip and see the erupting volcano, the Barbary Coast pirates, the knight jousts at Excalibur, and the continuous acts at Circus Circus. We eat at a dinner buffet and you select several desserts at the end of your meal, but feel a sharp smack on the back of your hand. "Remember to stay in shape, you perform tonight," is all I say, but it's enough - you leave all your desserts but one at the table.
I had allotted thirty dollars for each of us to gamble with. We go to the slot machines and play. After thirty minutes, I have lost all my money and you now have fifty-four dollars. You decide to quit while you're ahead, and we just go outside on the Strip to walk and inhale the cool night air and see the flashing neon of Las Vegas. We watch the punks, the con artists, the hookers, and it seems to you that everybody has a plan, a scam, a hustle - except for us: we're just enjoying our time before...
