The Lady of the Manor -- Chapter 2
Claire, the Estate Manager, knows about Thomas and the Viscountess...

The dowager Viscountess Baythorpe's parting shot to me had been: "and don't forget, Thomas: rough and dirty".
I heard nothing from her for a few days, during which I contemplated her last remark with a mixture of stomach-churning anticipation and nagging doubt. I'd had a girlfriend at university who liked a bit of light bondage during sex. Nothing heavy, just being tied loosely to the bedposts with scarves or stockings. But I'd never handled a girl roughly before, let alone spanked them. And that is precisely what I'd done to her Ladyship at our last encounter egged on, I may say, by the lady herself. She had clearly enjoyed it and her last remark indicated that she wanted more of the same -- or maybe something more extreme. So how far should I go? It wasn't my natural inclination. Not only that, but I was also starting to like Caroline very much; the last thing I wanted to do was hurt her. And I had to bear in mind that she was in her late fifties, maybe even early sixties. I was beginning to see that beneath that rather brittle aristocratic exterior there was a touch of vulnerability. And more than just a touch of wildness brought about by a lifetime of repressed sexual desires. And just what did she mean by "dirty"? I did a little on-line shopping to cover some eventualities and waited to hear from her.
On Friday I received a text that seemed to leave no doubt:
Dear Thomas, I'm so, so, sorry for the short notice again! Can you possibly come over on Sunday evening? I do hope so! I've been thinking about last weekend almost non-stop, and resisting the temptation to... well, you know. So I'll probably be a little wild. Maybe more wild than last weekend so you might have to be very firm with me!

Ps -- bring your things for an overnight stay, although I'll have to kick you out at seven again.
I walked across the fields to Baythorpe Manor that Sunday evening, a knapsack on my back with some clothes and toiletries and the few things I'd purchased on-line. The weather was close and thundery after a long dry spell and the cows in the fields were all supine.
Viscountess Baythorpe must have been waiting in the hall, because she answered the door about five seconds after I'd rung the bell. I entered her ancestral home and she closed the big oaken door behind me and leaned back against it.
'I'm sorry I kept you waiting until Sunday night. That was naughty of me.' This was delivered in a meek, subdued tone and I realised that our play-acting was starting now. I said nothing but stood looking at her leaning against the door. She looked good, her figure outlined to perfection by an expensive-looking grey silk cocktail dress complemented by grey stockings and matching three-inch heel court shoes. Her ash blonde hair was shining and she'd applied her make-up with her usual care, perhaps slightly overdoing the eye liner. Her full lips were a glossy red and she'd painted her fingernails to match. Yet again I was bowled over by this spectacle of mature, feminine, aristocratic perfection.
But now was not the time to compliment her; now was the time to be firm. Rough. I walked over to her and pulled her away from the door, grabbing a handful of her hair and tilting her head back, kissing her mouth, forcing her lips open with my lips, pushing my tongue into her mouth, licking her teeth and gums, mashing our lips together. With my free hand I grabbed one of her buttocks and thrust her hips against mine, rubbing my erection against her crotch.
I released her and stepped back. She was breathing heavily and her eyes were wide open. 'What are you going to do to me?' she asked, quietly.
'You've been messing me around, haven't you?' She nodded slightly. 'So I'm going to punish you.' I pointed to my knapsack on the tiled hall floor. 'There's a pair of handcuffs in there. Get them out.' She bent over and unzipped my bag. 'They're underneath that other stuff.' Where I had deliberately put them; I wanted her to see the "other stuff". It would excite her, perhaps unsettle her. I saw her pick up a purple latex butt plug and look at it before putting it back. Her hair was shielding her expression from me. She did the same with the bottle of lubricant and the bundle of nylon straps and clips.
'These?' she said in a small voice, holding up a pair of pink metal handcuffs. They wouldn't have held a determined person for five seconds, but that wasn't the point. The implication of restraint and control was just as potent.
'Yes. Now put your hands behind your back.' She stood up and did as I had told her and I clipped the cuffs on, noting that she was now breathing in ragged gasps, clearly very aroused. I zipped shut the knapsack, slung it over my shoulder and took her upper arm firmly in my hand, propelling her towards the staircase.
'What are you going to do to me?' she asked again as her high heels clattered across the hall tiles.
