The first strike lands.

Fire.

I jump, breath catching hard enough that my fingers curl into the padding. My boots shift against the floor.

"Ouch!"

The sound escapes before I can stop it. The second strike lands across a different part of my backside.

"Fuuuuck!"

I dance slightly against the bench. Soren waits until I settle, his hand staying on my back.

Then another. And another.

Each one lands with enough weight to make my whole body react, but never in exactly the same place. By the time I've lost track of the number, my ass is on fire and my cock is painfully hard.

The room is loud around me. Someone near the door lets out a low appreciative whistle.

Then Dex, unmistakable: "That's it! Get him!"

I laugh despite myself.

"Thank you," I call over my shoulder, voice strained. "I hate all of you."

That gets a bigger reaction. The room erupts with cheers, a couple of howls, somebody laughing so hard they choke. Underneath all of it, steady as a metronome, Soren's belt keeps landing.

It hurts like fuck. It is also delicious. I kick once and squirm. Soren's hand presses more firmly into my back, grounding, not trapping. I know how to stop him. Red. Three taps. Neither one crosses my mind as something I actually want.

The last strike lands harder than the others. I whine and jump against the bench.

Then it's over. Soren's hand replaces the belt, rubbing slow circles, and my whole body melts.

"The first part of your consequence is done," he says quietly, just for me.

I breathe out. "Okay, Daddy."

"Still good?"

I check. Body. Head. The happy, buzzy warmth spreading through me.

"Very."

I hear the smile in his voice. "Good boy."

He helps me upright. He pulls my jeans and my briefs up. Then, because apparently privacy has been canceled entirely, he turns toward the room.

"Kit's second spanking is tomorrow morning."

The room immediately wakes back up.

"This one before bedtime," Soren says. "The second after he wakes up."

"That's cruel!" someone calls.

"Can we watch that one too?" Dex shouts. "I need a reason to wake up early!"

I flip him off. That only makes everyone laugh harder.
