Page 47 of Royal Pain

“Then by all means.” I was still gentle in how I shackled her arms, taking my time doing so. Before I bound her ankles, I took a few pleasurable seconds to brush the rough pads of my fingers up the inside of first one arm then the other.

As I stood back, I used the move not only to continue admiring her beauty but to also allow her to get used to the feeling of being shackled. She tested the hold, wiggling and flexing her fingers several times. While her breathing initially was slightly labored, she calmed down within seconds.

Only then did I move on to her ankles, lifting her left leg first. Her skin was so soft, I found it difficult not to kiss the insideof her knee, rolling my lips up to her inner thigh. There was something adorable about the way she shuddered at my touch.

When she was finally secure, I backed away. I did want the anticipation of what I was going to do to evoke various emotions. I thought about what other layer I could add to the mix, deciding on nipple clamps. She should experience controlled pain mixed with pleasure. Even if it was only for a little while.

“As you’ve already learned, domination and submission in almost every aspect is an artform. Yes?”

“Yes, sir. Beautiful. More so than I thought.”

“I’m glad to hear that.” I walked to one of two cabinets in the room. While I often checked to ensure our equipment, apparatuses, and implements were in top working order, as the supervisor of every dom and dominatrix, it was Zane’s responsibility. We hired the best people for a reason.

I sensed she was about ready to ask a question and stopped herself. Curiosity was natural. Holding back on typical instincts was one of the hardest things to do, especially for intelligent people who no one would consider followers. She might seem timid on the outside, but she was anything but weak. She’d simply been beaten down by an asshole.

This should begin to build some confidence back to where it should be. “You can ask a question, my sweet submissive.”

“Thank you, sir. What are you doing?”

“Mmm… You see, certain aspects of the lifestyle do involve pain. Whether it’s because of needed discipline or because both the dom and the sub enjoy the high surrounding the experience.And yes, endorphins are powerful when exposed by certain acts of inflicting pain.”

I could smell her sudden fear. It was easy to do that in a human. Or perhaps I was just good at it. When people were highly afraid, worried they would be killed, the scent was raw and more intense. I’d been there, causing worry to a pompous asshole who’d dared hurt someone in my employ to the point she’d had to be transferred to the hospital.

This was different. There was still excitement laced in the moment. While her emotions were raw, her desire outweighed everything else.

“Pain. Enjoyable pain?”

“Answer me this. When I spanked you, you were wet, the hunger you felt surprising you. Correct?”

She laughed nervously. “Yes. I was shocked. I thought at first something was wrong with me.”

“Not at all. The honest truth is that if people would truly let go, enjoy the reality that a hint of anguish is good for the soul, their worlds would open up significantly.” I selected the perfect pair. Not too aggressive and the tips were covered with rubber pads. I also selected a small tawse, one that could be easily controlled. As I returned, she eyed the items carefully. Again, the hint of fear remained but I was shocked how excited she seemed.

My balls were so tight I was certain they were going to pop off. That was pain.

“Now, before you can truly embrace the kind of ecstasy few experience, you must encounter the other side. Are you prepared?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Good girl. No hesitation. You do trust me.”

“Very much. Sir.” The nod of respect was almost an afterthought, which was fine by me.

I moved closer, the electricity was off the charts as always seemed to be with her. “Nipple clamps. They will help keep your nipples long, tight, and sensitive.”

“They’re already sensitive around you. Sir.” Her eyes opened wide.

She could make me laugh like no other woman. “That’s quite the compliment. They are a simple but powerful tool to use. Close your eyes and take a deep breath. This will hurt. Keep that in mind.”

“Yes, sir.” Her lower lip was quivering but she did as I commanded, taking a deep breath while doing so.

When she appeared somewhat serene, I flicked my finger back and forth across her already taut nipple. It was rosy and the sight of the hard bud made my mouth water. But I resisted, wanting her to experience as much as she could handle. I was careful, repeating the move with the other nipple, even daring to suck on one, then the other before squeezing open one of the clamp ends.

The moment I placed the first one into position, her entire body began to shake.

“Holy… shit. I’m sorry but…” She was breathless, her mouth twisted in a lovely formation.

“That’s fine. React as you need to react.”
