“Yes, I mean look at me… and look at you.”
His eyebrow raised so very high. “I am looking at you. Do you know what I see?”
“A short, chubby girl with a huge birthmark taking up half her face?”
“Oh, baby. You’re playing with fire.”
I bit my lip and looked away.
He grabbed my chin and brought my face back to him. “Answer my question correctly, Paisley.”
I fidgeted on his lap, but his large hands on my thighs stilled me. “Paisley.”
“I don’t know. I don’t know what you see,” I admitted.
“I see someone that loves with her whole heart. You would put all of your hurt to the side to forgive a friend. Love pours out of you and into everyone who surrounds you. Pretty pink curls, soft pale skin, and thighs I could camp out between only add to the total package.”
I flushed and tried to look down, but he didn’t allow it.
“No, Paisley, I want you to listen to my words. You are beautiful inside and out.” His voice was so commanding and his words so sincere. It was too hard not to believe him.
“Yes, Sir,” I answered.
“Good girl.”
My tummy fluttered. I loved when he praised me.
“Now, with that all being laid on the table, I need to know if you’re okay with me spanking Emily.”
“Yes, Sir,” I answered, honestly. I wasn’t bothered by it. She deserved it, and I figured it would be good for both of them.
“I can assign lines or a timeout if you feel uncomfortable with any of it.”
“No, Sir. I don’t want you to do that. I don’t believe Emily will feel like she was punished properly.” I also didn’t think he’d get the closure he needed, but I didn’t say that part.
He kissed my forehead and set me between his feet. “Alright, baby. Do you want to stay in here while it happens or do you want to come out into the living room with us?”
“Uhhh.” I wasn’t sure. I didn’t mind either way. I just wanted my friend to feel supported, and Axel to feel comfortable. “What do you want?”
“I would like you with me… and I’m sure Emily would appreciate your support.”
I nodded my head in agreement.
He took my hand and let me back into the living room. Emily sat in Onyx’s lap and he was whispering to her softly. She was tearful, but held her chin high and her shoulders squared.
Pulling away from Axel, I moved to sit on my fluffy couch.Emily would probably be thankful my couch was so fluffy after Axel was done with her ass.
Axel sat on the coffee table again, this time opening his arms. Emily rushed into them and he held her tight.
“It’s okay, Little one. I forgive you and this spanking isn’t to remind you that you messed up. It’s to let you know I love you enough to discipline you to help you think twice before making the same mistake. And because I think highly enough of you to hold you to a better standard of behavior. I want you to understand that I forgive you before the first swat even lands. This isn’t something you need to do in order for me to love you again, I do this because I already do love you.”
His words were like balm to my damaged soul. They soothed pieces of me I hadn’t even known were jagged and mangled.
I was pretty sure Emily felt the same way. “Yes, Sir.” She sobbed the words into his shoulder.
Axel rocked her for a few minutes, then kissed her forehead. “Alright, darlin’. Let's get this over with so we can help your Little heart feel better.”
She nodded and he set her on her feet between his legs, much like he had positioned me before.
