“You did?”

“Yeah.” By the tone of his voice, I could tell he was very clear about this, as if he’d thought this through very carefully.

“I assumed that Reggie had fixed you when he walked you through your desires at his estate. When those months were over, I was so elated to have you back, I acted like some starry eyed kid at Christmas. And…I let you get away with sliding back into a lot of old habits. Oh! you looked different, and you had more confidence; but you were telling me tall tales when you vowed that you didn’t need discipline anymore, that all the rough stuff, the spanking and the punishment was something you got over.”

What he was saying made me shudder, especially the cold delivery. It sounded so much like Reggie himself.

“When I was at the spanking party the other night and Reggie told me that he could punish you forever, something dawned on me that I should have known. I guess not being as experienced as my dear friend, I just didn’t realize the nature of the sexual beast I was living with.”

I fidgeted nervously, knowing exactly where he was going with this lecture long before the words were out of his mouth.

“Your darker sexual desires don’t die. They may get pushed aside for a while. They may be supplanted by softer sex, or other fantasies, but those desires never really go away, do they?”

I cleared my throat, sure I was going to choke on my answer. “No,” I agreed.

He just nodded his head at my admission.

“So I suppose Reggie’s going to continue…”

“No. I am.” The words hit like a thunder clap, why so unexpectedly I don’t know, but I know I physically jerked when it registered.

“I should have done it all along, and that was my fault.”

The times Will had been so stern and authoritative with me had been rare. I hadn’t allowed them to happen. They scared me, because the sexual craving that went with this prickly kind of exchange was so strong, I could hardly tolerate the feeling. And at the moment I could hardly contain myself.

“You’re going to punish me now?” I asked, hesitantly.

“You have a problem with that, now that I intend to administer it?” he snapped sarcastically, the cool melting as the slow burn on his insides was beginning to flare. It was a Will I was more used to.

“No, no, no,” I assured him.

“My problem, Alex, I can’t help loving you, and I certainly can’t stop. This separation is eating away at me, so it’s ending, at least part of it. And from now on, Miss Princess, the relationship changes. I’m not going to be taken advantage of, and you’re not going to get anywhere trying to deny what we both know you want and need. We’ll both be a lot happier.”

There were two sides to my feelings: the side that was so happy I thought it was New Year’s Eve all over again, and the side that was knee knocking, heart pounding, terrified. This was worse than anything I’d ever felt with Reggie. I didn’t really know what to feel. Reggie had always been a fantasy, but Will never had been. Reggie belonged to a world apart from the real one, but Will was reality everyday life, and that was much more difficult to face.

“You’ve got a lot of penance to pay, Alex. I think we might as well get started.”

“I’ve already paid a great deal with Reggie,” I reminded him, thinking of the weeks I’d bared my butt for Reggie’s ruthless punishments.

Will chuckled darkly. “Well gee, Alex,” he said with an inspired grin. “As far as I’m concerned none of that counts.”

“What? None?” I was quaking in every corner of my body.

“I’m the wronged party here, I decide when you’ve had enough.”

“But you told me if…”

“Don’t argue,” he snapped. “It’s going to get you nowhere.” He stood up. “Let’s begin with you over the arm of the chair,” he said, pulling me reluctantly to my feet.

Once standing I looked beside the chair and to my surprise, I found myself gazing at the three implements that Reggie had tested on me, and then purchased in the antique shop.

“He gave them to you?” I asked.

“Yeah, a few weeks back.”

“Shipped them directly to you?” I queried further.

“Yes,” he replied, but he didn’t like the third degree.
