Chapter 4: Attitude Adjustments
I woke up a few hours later with Jan's head on my chest. I must have really worn her out since she was in the kind of deep sleep that envelops your entire being. It took several shakes to bring her out and then it took more than a few minutes for her to gain her bearings. She finally stretched like a waking cat and fixed me with a great big smile, jumped up on my chest and kissed me as passionately as I've ever been kissed. As the kiss broke the words started to flow like water from a bursting dam.
"Thank You. Dear god, thank you. I never imagined how good it could be. I'm still tingling from head to toe just remembering how totally consumed I was. I love you. I'll do anything for you. I'm yours. Just promise you'll fuck me again. Please, just use me. Use my mouth, my pussy, my assβ¦"
I finally cut her off. "You will be used. This much I can promise you. But you are forgetting something. Something that will get you severely punished. Do you have any idea what that is?"
Her brow became pinched and a worried look spread quickly across her face. She tensed as her mind was clearly racing to discover what she had done wrong. Not a second earlier she was in total bliss and now she was confused. I had her off balance again and I loved it.
It took only a few seconds before the light of recognition replaced that worried look. Her brain was clearly out of sync with her mouth as her lips worked to get something out without success. I think she was just so completely stunned by what her thoughts revealed to her that she was unable to find any rhythm. When her rhythms finally realigned she whispered, "Oh my god. I'm sorry Master. I promise, I won't forget again. Please forgive me Master. I am your Slave. You are my Master. I won't forget again Master."
As those last words were uttered her eyes welled with tears and she fell quite. It was time to get rough. It was time to deliver the first of what I suspected would be many lessons before I could turn Jan into a truly worthy slave. My hand shot out like a snake striking its prey. I grabbed her by the throat and she gasped. "Stop" was all I said but there was a tone of menace that couldn't be missed. I just held her like that until it sank in. She was in trouble and she had no idea what was coming next.
"Knowing what you did has saved you from the worst of it but you will be punished. You will know your role and you will never again forget your proper place. Now, here are some basic rules. You may ask permission to speak. Otherwise, the only time I want to hear you speak is when I ask you to. When I tell you to do something don't dare hesitate, not even for a second. And don't ever forget to refer to me as Master. Now, I want you over my knee."
I released her throat and she gulped in as much air as her lungs would allow. I shifted so I was sitting at the end of the bed and watched as she moved into position. She was obviously shocked and more than a little scared but after my warnings she wasn't about to show any hesitation. She had positioned herself so her ass was over my left hand. I wondered for a moment if she was fast enough to reason that since I was right handed, being on my left side might have made this a little less painful.
"Get your ass on my right side" I commanded. The resigned tone of her "Yes Master" told me she was in fact quicker than I thought and I was going to have to take care not to underestimate her in the future.
