My grandmother has Sister Prudence pull me out of Latin class to come talk to her. I’ve had weird stares all throughout class, and I don’t know why. I haven’t done anything to be gossip worthy, I don’t think.
I think back to my library study session with Tempest, and allow myself a secret smile. We have to be more careful or we’re going to get caught one day. I wish I could be braver and take what I want. I wish I could give Tempest more of me, because the truth is, I do have feelings for her. I’m so much more comfortable with my body now, and I want to ask Levi if we can finally have sex for the first time soon.
Standing in front of Grandmother’s office, I take a deep breath to steel myself for whatever is about to happen. Sister Prudence gives me a sad smile. “You’re really pushing your grandmother, Chastity. You’re responsible for everything you're reaping today. Tempest is gone because of you.”
“What?!” I gasp, tears pricking my eyes.
Sister pushes me through the open door, closing out any curious bystanders in the hallway. My grandmother stands by her desk stiffly.
“Do you know why you’re here, child?” she asks, swallowing thickly.
I shake my head, my breath coming fast. “Sister told me Tempest isn’t at Holy Cross anymore, but didn’t say why.”
My voice is filled with the tears I’m trying to hold back, and my grandmother scoffs at me.
“Tears are not meant for when you’re caught red-handed,” she says, moving forward and slapping my hand as I dash a rogue tear away. “Someone saw you kissing and fornicating with your roommate in the library! I blame myself, as I should have kept you isolated from everyone. I had to know if you could handle being with other people, be a woman of God and make me proud. Clearly, I had too much trust in you.”
Shaking her head in fury, she looks up as Father Levi comes into the room.
“I just finished class, Mother Superior. You wanted to see me?”
His eyes dip to mine and he looks worried. I shake my head, unable to tell him what happened, and scared of why he is here now.
Levi has become her enforcer, and thereby, God’s as well. Any time he and my grandmother are together means things will not go well for me.
I wrap my arms around my waist as Grandmother explains to Levi why I’m in trouble. “Tempest has been expelled from school, and her things are packed. Her mother wasn’t happy she needed to come get her, but this isn’t my concern. My concern is my granddaughter’s redemption. Have you been having regular sessions with her, Father Levi?” she asks, her tone biting and angry.
Swallowing hard, I watch as all emotion leaves his features. Levi is now my grandmother’s puppet, playing a part, and I know he’ll do whatever she wants to me. Packing up the special moments I’ve had with him, I hide them deep inside. There’s no reason for another person to be hurt because of me.
“Yes, Mother Cross. We meet almost every day for sessions. She’s been progressing well. Chastity must have been withholding her affair with her roommate from me,” Father Levi says, his blue eyes cold and lifeless as he stares at me. “What do you propose we change to adjust her walk with the Holy Spirit? Clearly, the devil has been in her ear.”
Shuddering at his harsh words, I watch as my grandmother retrieves a paddle from the wall. “There’s a great many things we can do to expel the demons, but Tempest told me she pulled Chastity from her path. Chastity does not have much experience with the ways of the world, and this is partly due to her upbringing. However, you and I, Father, cannot step away from what is right and true. We mould minds at this school, uplift souls, and correct behavior. I want to make sure you are properly punishing my granddaughter, so I will insist this happens in my presence. May I remind you, Chastity, my office is not the place for theatrics,” Grandmother admonishes as she holds the paddle up. It’s huge, made of thick wood, and I know it’s going to hurt. “Father Levi will fit you with a strip of leather to bite on, if you don’t believe you can stay quiet.”
I begin to hyperventilate as I realize I’m going to be punished in her office, where students are walking in the hallway. Classes have ended, so they’re going to their next one, and rumors have to be spreading like wildfire. I don’t trust myself to stay quiet. Despite how often I’m punished, my pain tolerance varies depending on the punishment.
“Mother Superior, I would like to accept the grace of having the leather, if it pleases you,” I say softly, my eyes firmly on the ground. I’m so ashamed, my own grandmother is insisting on witnessing my punishment.
Father Levi’s shoes appear in front of me, and he’s holding a worn, brown leather strip. I pray it’s enough to hold back any sounds I make. Determined, I look up at him, even though I’m scared of what’s to come.
“Come, lay on the table,” he commands and I nod, walking over. I lean over the table so my back is flat to him, and see his hands holding the leather. “Open so you can bite onto this. I will not be lenient, or merciful, because you are bringing this on yourself.”
Grandmother grunts in approval, leaning against the wall with her arms folded. In this position, she can see my entire body, and I can see her. I wish she’d move so I can’t see her. I’m already humiliated enough, my cheeks burning and hot. Levi flips up my skirt, exposing my ass, and I’ve never been happier that I chose full coverage panties. I can almost imagine my grandmother’s face if she saw a thong instead.
Levi grabs my arms, folding them neatly behind my back so I am holding my forearms. I try to regulate my breathing, as I feel Levi’s heavy hand on my lower back. I know this will not be a fun experience, and any memories of how turned on I was when he spanked me have fled.
I feel the displacement of air before the paddle strikes my ass, and am still not prepared for the pain. My father preferred a belt, but if he had any idea how much more painful this is, I’m sure he’d have switched.
I stifle my scream by digging my nails deep into my arms, biting hard into the belt. “Very good, Father. I think twenty strikes sounds like the perfect punishment. I want the pain to be all Chastity thinks about, driving out any thoughts of sinful pleasure or perversions,” my grandmother says, far too smugly for a nun. She seems happy for me to receive so much pain.
I do indeed lose myself to the agony, and I pass out for a moment or two.
“Hey, it’s over now,” Levi says, as I come to, brushing my hair out of my face and taking the leather out of my mouth.
“Are you my Levi again?” I ask softly, tears flowing again.
Levi sighs, picking me up and into his arms, careful not to touch my stinging bottom. “Yes, sweet girl. I’m so sorry. I truly didn’t want to do this to you. Your grandmother has a lot of power…”
“And everyone does whatever she wants them to. Trust me,” I say with a yawn. “I know. She wasn’t always like this, but now it’s all I know.”
