This story is a sequel to 'Sharing the Wealth.' You will understand this story's plot and characters better if you read that one first. If you didn't like that story, you won't like this one. Also, I have switched from first- to third-person narrator, just to try it out. And the kinks are rougher here, also an experiment.

"I can't believe you guys actually live like this, Helen."
Amanda and Helen were having coffee in Helen's kitchen Saturday morning. The kitchen was comfortable; tidy and well equipped. "Yes, well, it works us. And I must say I'm delighted -- relieved, even -- to let you in on the secret. You see, when William and I came to terms, he agreed that whether anyone found out about our arrangement was entirely up to me. But we both thought it was risky to involve friends, family or colleagues, so we haven't. Except you now, of course." Helen was referring to her dominance of William, her husband, and to events of the previous evening, when Amanda had been allowed free, anonymous use of William for several hours in a hotel room before she and Helen revealed her identity back at home.
"Did you guys talk about it after I went to bed?" Amanda asked.
"No, we went to bed, too."
"Do you think he's pissed?"
Helen shrugged. "Doubtful."
"Think he'll be embarrassed to see me this morning? Sorry I have to leave so soon." Amanda had planned to spend the weekend, but problems at work summoned her back. She had just finished changing her flight.
Helen smiled. "Embarrassed? Let's hope so. In any case, I have a plan for the morning that should do the trick." The women were dressed casually in jeans and simple tops, Helen a fitted T-shirt and Amanda a white tank top. At Helen's mention of a 'plan' Amanda felt a tingle. Indeed, she had been tingling all morning, whenever she thought about the night before. She'd had tingles enough by now that her underwear was damp and threatened to visibly moisten her jeans.
"Where is he? Still in bed?"
"No, I sent him out on an errand. He should be back soon." She looked at her watch and added, "Heaven help him if he's not." Amanda would leave for the airport in 90 minutes.
William arrived home a short time later and left a package in the living room. He was dressed for early summer, in khaki shorts and a golf shirt. "Hello?!" he called. "I'm back." Helen responded, "We're in the kitchen." William went to the kitchen, hoping for a normal morning, but no longer sure what normal was. As soon as he entered the room, Helen pointed first to the floor, then to her foot. Amanda watched with delight as William knelt and kissed Helen's bare foot with its perfectly polished toenails. "Good morning, ma'am."
"Her, too!" Helen admonished him when he began to rise. "Manners, William. My goodness! We have no secrets with Amanda."
Amanda eagerly extended her foot. "Feels like old times, eh, panty boy?" She smirked as William kissed her foot and said, "Good morning, Miss."
William rose and asked if there was any coffee left. "Not so fast, mister. I've a bone to pick with you." Helen set down her mug. "Go bring me the strap. And lose the shorts!" William was surprised, to say the least, and full of dread as he left the room. He knew better than to protest, dawdle, stall, or otherwise keep his wife waiting. He quickly returned sans shorts and carrying a leather strap. He wore snug yellow panties with tiny orange polka dots and a white satin bow. The panties were sheer and did not hide his locked penis. Helen rose and took the strap. She pointed to the sink and said sternly, "Grab the sink, William." He turned, bent at the waist, and placed his hands on either side of the stainless steel sink. He knew what was going to happen and was trembling.
"Now, William. You do know what this is about, don't you?"
"Yes ma'am." His voice cracked.
"Tell me why you are being disciplined."
"I ... I was late getting home last night, ma'am."
"Lateness of the hour is not the issue. Tell me what you did wrong."
William could barely speak and was afraid he might cry. "I stayed too late at Share the Wealth with Miss Rebecca," he whispered.
Amanda gasped. "Helen! No!! That was my fault! I..."
Helen turned to Amanda and calmly raised her hand. "Mand," she said, "Please." She returned to her trembling husband and said, "William, please tell us whose fault it was."
"Um, m-mine, ma'am."
"Thank you. Now drop your panties." William bared his behind. "Hands on the sink. Do not let go."
And William's punishment began. Helen swung the leather fiercely, expertly, and relentlessly at William's exposed ass. The room grew loud with the crack of leather slapping flesh and howls from William. Immediately he was crying -- sucking air between sobs, dancing from foot to foot -- as Helen's blows rained on his flaming red backside. Amanda watched William's ordeal in horror.
Helen was efficient and it was over fairly quickly. When he heard her put the strap on the table, William knew it was safe to let go of the sink and rub his burning bottom. He turned to the women with a wet face -- tears, snot, and drool. "And now what have you to say?" asked Helen.
William rubbed away the mess on his mouth, caught a ragged breath and said, "I'm very sorry, ma'am. I will try to make sure it never happens again, ma'am." He spilled more tears as he pulled up his panties.
"Very well, William. You may get your coffee and take it to the den. Mandy and I are going to talk some more."
The women watched in silence as he fumbled awkwardly with a mug and the coffee pot before stealing out of the kitchen. Once he was out of earshot Amanda hissed, "Jesus Christ, Helen!! How could you do that to him?! Did you see his ass? How could you do that? Seriously, how could you do that?! I wouldn't do that to a dog!!"
"Neither would I," Helen replied. "But William is a man. And my husband."
"You just whipped the shit out of him! And I told you, it wasn't even his fault. He was late because of me! I told you last night. I thought you understood and it was OK."
"Yes, well I expect William thought the same thing," Helen replied. "Mand, I did understand and it was OK. For you. Not for him. It was my rule. He broke it. Normally I would have taken care of this on the spot -- that's the best way. But it was late, and anyway I decided I wanted you see it."
Amanda stared at her friend. "You wanted me to see it? Helen, what the fuck? You thought I would enjoy that? Like watching you whale on his ass is gonna get me off?"
"Take it easy, Mand." Helen paused and sipped her coffee. "First of all, it was not a show. I would have done it whether you were here or not. Though actually," she added slyly, "I do think some women would be very turned on by watching."
Amanda rolled her eyes. "I'm not turned on."
"Fair enough. But, second, it wasn't that bad. William has had worse, believe me. And he does enjoy humiliation. Having you watch it was much more humiliating."
