Page 84 of Cage

He raises his eyebrows. “Really? I’m counting two. One for getting out of bed when I directly told you not to. And second, because you just put yourself down.”

Well… crumb.

“You’re allowed to use your safeword during punishment. Since this is your first real spanking, I’m going to take it easy on you, but if it gets to the point where you need it to stop, you say red. You need to remember that even though I’m your Daddy, you still hold the power here. Okay?”

My heart races, and even though I’m facing my doom, I’m not scared. Cage would die before he truly hurt me.

“Okay, Daddy.”

He puts me on my feet, then takes my hand and carefully helps me over one of his thighs. My chest rests on the oversized chair, and my feet dangle in the air. I can only imagine what I look like from his position right now.

“Part your thighs, firefly. Keep them parted the entire time.”

Crap. He’s definitely going to see my arousal. Maybe if I’m good, he’ll touch me between my legs during my spanking.

He palms my bottom, making me jump.

“Ready, baby?”

I twist to look back at him. “Is the sun cold?”

His palm comes down with a sharp, loud smack. Holy crap, that was hard.

“You know, it’s probably not smart to be sassy with Daddy when you’re in such a predicament. Now, I’m going to ask you again. Are you ready?”

“Yes, Daddy,” I answer breathlessly.

He spanks me again, this time not stopping with one. Again and again, his palm connects. He said he was going to take it easy on me. I think his idea of easy and my idea of easy are very different. Stinging pain radiates through me, and it’s not long before I start wiggling, trying to dodge his hand.

“When I tell you to do something, I expect you to obey. Why did you decide to disobey Daddy?”

I bite my lip and whimper, trying to process his words while he continues to pepper my poor bottom with swats.

“Did you do it because you wanted to see what would happen if you disobeyed? I kind of think you did. Guess what? This is what happens. Naughty girls always go over their Daddy’s lap when they don’t listen.”

“Owwie! Owwie! Owwie!” I hiss and kick, my eyes starting to burn with tears.

“You can test me all you want, firefly, but no matter how often you do it, I’m never giving up on you or sending you away. I want you to get that through your head right now. You’re mine. I’m going to spank you when you’re naughty. I’ll never stop loving you, though.”

Sniffling, I let out a sob. “I’m sorry, Daddy. I won’t do it again.”

He lifts his free leg and puts it over the back of both of mine, so I can’t kick, then starts spanking me harder and faster.

“I wouldn’t make promises you can’t keep, firefly,” he says, his voice amused. “I like my naughty, sassy girl. I also like spanking her. Fuck, I could spank this perfect ass every day.”

After this, I think I’m going to try really hard to be a good girl. Although, despite my bottom being on fire, my pussy is throbbing.

Tears drip down my cheeks, but no matter how much I wiggle or fight, he doesn’t stop. When I try to reach back to cover one of my cheeks, he grabs my wrist and pins it to my lower back. I’m completely at his mercy now.

It hurts. So bad. It’s also cathartic. The longer he goes, the more I cry until I’m sobbing over and over. When I can’t fight it anymore, my entire body goes limp and I give into it, letting the pain and tears wash everything away.

As soon as Cage stops, he pulls me up and settles me on his lap. I wince when my bottom connects with his pants. I have a feeling I’ll be doing a lot of that for the next day or two.

“I got you, baby. Let it out. That’s my girl.”

He holds me against his chest and slowly rocks me back and forth in his arms for a long time. Even after my tears stop, he holds me, stroking my head and whispering praise. I’m sure I look like a train wreck right now, but I’ve never felt lighter. Maybe being spanked isn’t all that terrible. Maybe it’s exactlywhat I need to let go of so many unhealthy emotions I’ve been bottling up for so long.

“How’s my girl? Where’s your head at right now, baby?”
