    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;The Society of Janus Presents: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Total M/s – a panel moderated by Patrick Mulcahey 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thursday, July 24th at Stormy Leather 
&lt;br/&gt;8:00pm to 10:00pm (Doors open at 7:30pm) 
&lt;br/&gt;$5/Janus members and affiliates; $15/non-members (you do not need to be a member to attend!)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please join The Society of Janus for an evening of discussion of the M/s dynamic. Unlike other panels that present one side of M/s or the other, the focus of this panel is the total power exchange and how both partners interact in the relationship. Our intention is that this panel will allow attendees to gain a better understanding of how they might be successful in their M/s partnerships, and to have a better understanding of their partner's role in the dynamic, leading to a long and fulfilling power exchange relationship. The panel will consist of both a moderated discussion and a question and answer session, so please feel free to come with questions for our panelists.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This Janus program is open to all attendees 18 yrs of age and older who have a personal, positive interest in BDSM.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Panelist bios:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Master Rick and slave Tina are honored to have been selected to represent our community as the International Master and slave 2008 and previously held the Northwest Master and slave 2007 title.  They have been Master and slave for 4 ½ years and have been married for nearly 3 years. They have presented seminars at many community venues, MAsT, NCSF, and for major events including Leatherwoods, IMsL, and smOdyssey. 
&lt;br/&gt;

    <title>Cat's House to Re-open in September</title>

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Cat's House, in Rancho Cordova, CA, will be re-opening on Saturday, September 20 (the weekend before the Folsom Street Fair). 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dungeon membership will be $75 per year. Member privileges include a requested donation of $10 per party. Members will be allowed to escort up to two guests (who have not previously met me) per party. As long as members RSVP at least 24 hours before the start of a party, they will never be turned away. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The behavior of a member's guest(s) will be a reflection of that member's good judgment and there will be consequences for bringing ill-mannered guests into our midst. Also, though members are allowed to bring guests, they'll need to tell me who those guests are so that those few people who have been previously banned don't slip in and/or we don't have an embarrassing situation at the door. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Guests are requested to donate $20 or $25 per party (depending on the type of party). A guest who is not escorted by a member must first meet me in person before attending a play party. A guest must attend at least two parties before s/he will be considered for membership. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Cat's House will have a policy of radical self reliance at our events. Except for occasional big events, dinner buffets will no longer be served at our parties. If you need snacks due to health issues, bring them with you. If you'd like to bring snacks to share with others, you're welcome to do so. If you need towels/toys/condoms/gloves, bring them with you. Only bottled water will be supplied by Cat's House. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Cat's House has speakers and a volume control in each play room. If you have a room to yourself and don't like the music playing, you are welcome to bring your own CD player and CDs, turn the volume to zero, and play whatever music you like. We will no longer try to please everyone by changing the music because a few request it. If you know you want a certain type of music for the scene you plan, please bring it with you. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Smoking will be allowed in the backyard but absolutely no play will be allowed outside. First aid kits will be available and fire extinguishers will be located throughout the dungeon. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Finally, there will be no charge and no membership required for those attending social activities at Cat's House. This means that if any of the Sac area groups wish to hold a potluck, discussion group or class/demo at Cat's House, they are welcome to schedule a time to do so and their members will be allowed in free of charge. The hosting group will be responsible for paying any speakers/instructors they invite. To be very clear, Cat's House will not charge a hosting group for having a class here, but all expenses of that event (including clean up) will be the responsibility of the hosting group. Please contact me if you have any questions about this policy. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If any of this sounds harsh, please remember that I have a very direct style of speech. While some of what I've written is The Way It Is, some of it is just an attempt create a fair set of rules and a successful plan of action. I am willing to listen to any ideas you have regarding Cat's House. I am open to any ideas you have regarding senior/couple/poly/hardship discounts but I haven't yet hit on a fair way to standardize rules about those issues. As in the past, staff positions will also be available. 
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The restaurant has its own parking lot. The restaurant has agreed to bill us separately but will add an 18% gratuity to each bill because we are a large group and using the private room.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We'll be discussing plans for the dungeon to reopen in September, and about the possibility of working with other local groups to host a leather conference in Sacramento. I hope you'll join us.

If I do land a sub who wants to make a commitment beyond sex, what duties would be appropriate? Polishing my boots regularly is an obvious one that springs to mind, and ironing my shirts. Doing all the housework is too much (too time-consuming apart from anything else) but I thought getting him round to clean the bathroom once a week is about right.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Here is what some attendees had to say about the first Case Scenarios class:
&lt;br/&gt;"Very entertaining and informative for sure... We had a great time... I think you guys should take that show on the road - you'd be a hit everywhere!"
&lt;br/&gt;"The case scenarios DM training class was fantastic, very informative, it allowed me to view scenarios that I would have maybe never thought about, or even seen for many years. It will not only help me immensely as a DM but in considering my own dungeon etiquette."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This class will lead you through specific scenarios you might encounter as you observe play or work a shift as a DM at the Citadel. We will have many new scenarios for this class, in addition to upping the ante by having multiple scenes going on at once! As with the last Case Scenarios class, the style of instruction will be very different from any other DM training in the Bay Area- we will have less than ten minutes of lecture before getting down to actually SHOWING you scenarios and letting class participants troubleshoot these situations. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You are welcome to attend even if you are not interested in volunteering as a DM, as this class will provide useful information on conducting a safe scene and "fitting in" in the public dungeon environment, as well as orientation to the SF Citadel rules and BDSM community "norms."
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Previous DM training or experience not required- this is a stand-alone class. This training is HIGHLY recommended for all SF Citadel DM volunteers. There is no charge for this class. For new DMs, note that to DM at the Citadel additional orientation, scene experience, and/or references may be required. PLEASE be familiar with SF Citadel dungeon rules prior to attending this class- a copy of the rules can be found on our web site http://www.sfcitadel.org/Rules/Rules.html

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Next weekend Sindulgences is hosting two events that might interest you.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;On Saturday, June 28, at 6:00 PM, we are having a potluck and barbecue at the home of one of our members in Sacramento. Jay Wiseman, author of SM. 101 and the Erotic Bondage Handbook, will be our guest and has agreed to give us a bondage demonstration showing us quick bondage techniques for everyday use. The requested donation for the party is $10 plus a side dish to share.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;On Sunday, June 29, from 1:00 - 5:00 PM, at my home in Rancho Cordova, Jay will be giving an intensive 3+ hour class on bondage theory and techniques with lots of practice. He'll discuss legal, practical and safety concerns, walk you through the techniques and help you as you practice with each other. His books will be available for purchase at both events. The requested donation for the class is $10. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;To attend either event, you must be a member in good standing of a recognized BDSM group. If I don't already know you, let me know what other group leader can vouch for you. Please RSVP to me at Cat@sindulgences.com. Be sure to let me know which event you want to attend. I'll send out confirmation letters later this week with the address of the event, and details about what to bring.

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Dom I have been working with on a regular basis recommends Arnica gel, which I have been using for about a week now. I've yet to see if it's really speeding the process along- this week is the real test. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm not necessarily looking to change my regimen, but I'm curious- what else is used/recommended?

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;SF Ctiadel is proud to be in the 2008 San Francisco Pride Parade with both a marching contingent and a decorated truck (by our very own Master Erik). It looks like the pony carts will be in the parade as well. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I will be driving the truck so we will not be going so fast that anyone will have to run this time. We will be in the Leather Contingent, the largest contingent in the parade. Come and join us. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It’s going to be a wonderful day. We want marchers, single tale players, people in leather and levis and everyone who supports Gay Pride. If you want to march but are concerned about being recognized, it’s ok to wear a mask or hood. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We must have both wheel monitors and contingent monitors. They must go through training every year. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;That being said, we will be having a wheel and contingent monitor training class on Wed, June 18th from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM. We need two wheel monitors for each axel of the truck which means four wheel monitors and we need one contingent monitor for every 25 marchers. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There will be more training classes offered at different locations. Check out the training at: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;www.sfpride.org/ 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Go to the Parade pull down menu and select Contingent Monitors for the dates and times of the training. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We want everyone to be in the parade, visit our booth in Leather Alley and come to the cool down event after the parade and celebration. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Lets Rock Pride 2008!

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sunday, June 22 at SF Citadel – An official SF PRIDE Event! 
&lt;br/&gt;2:00pm - 5:00pm (Doors open at 1:00pm) 
&lt;br/&gt;$5/Janus members and affiliates; $15/non-members (you do not need to be a member to attend!) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Edge play for beginners: a contradiction in terms? Not necessarily. Even beginners can explore their edge play fantasies in safe and intense ways. This class will cover risk reduction, negotiation, and the art of seducing consent to make your scenes more intense and thrilling for both top and bottom. A class discussion will explore what edge play means for you. Not for the faint of heart! Demos will include fear play, blood play and an interrogation scene. Join Deja Black and her cadre of brave demo bottoms as they giggle and scream their way through some of the more extreme forms of play. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Deja Black jumped into the BDSM community five years ago, and hit the ground running. She has taught classes at SF Citadel, Edges, QSM, SMOdyssey, and Folsom Fringe, and has volunteered at spanking booths and piercing demos for the Society of Janus and the Exiles. Favorite play includes temporary piercing, impact play, genital torture and, um... rubber bands. Sometimes all at once! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This Janus program is open to all attendees 18 yrs of age and older who have a personal, positive interest in BDSM. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;About the Janus Xplore Series: 
&lt;br/&gt;The Janus Xplore series is a presentation of several "overview" classes, one per month on Sunday afternoons. These classes are intended to give the participants a solid, high-level overview of one area - not an in-depth class, but a great launching point to ask questions, and really see the wide range of activities possible. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Xplore classes include: Bondage, Impact, Medical &amp;amp; Electrical, Emotional Aspects of Play, Psychological Play, Dominance &amp;amp; Submission, Sex Play &amp;amp; Sensation Play, and the ever popular Sampler night where you can "taste" these aspects from the hands of experienced players.&lt;/div&gt;

    <title>What's your definition of subbing?</title>

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Something odd happened recently.  A friend told me someone in the community had trashed me because of something I'd said in a meeting at the Citadel in San Francisco.  When people were asked if anyone there had never subbed, I raised my hand.  And evidently, this outraged the person trashing me, that a dom may never have subbed.  It got me thinking (always a dangerous thing...)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I chatted more with my friend, surprised at the outrage, and mentioned that *by my definitions*, I never have subbed, but certainly have had a sub use each of my dozen floggers on me, and many of my canes, and all other pain toys, just to get a feel for how they impacted, swept skin, hurt, etc.  My friend's response was that, in that case, I HAD subbed.  I've always thought, since I've never experienced subspace, that I've never subbed, regardless of trying it out, with spanking that left me bored, or flogging, caning, and other brief lifeless experiments.  (To my regret, switching never seems to do a thing for me, and whether through pain or exercise, I'm fairly sure I've never been fortunate enough to experience an endorphin high.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So, what's the definition of subbing to you?  Is it the only what you do physically, or is it what you experience?  Personally, I think of it as experiencing the whole of the pain-becomes-pleasure/submission to another's giving of sensation/etc. experience.  Which I've orchestrated for others, but never felt, myself.  Or do you consider it just the experience of bending down and accepting what someone else gives you, regardless of what's going on in your head?  I'm curious what people are using for their way of defining things...&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;(This is being posted on behalf of user Uncle A)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hi all,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Many of you are used to my presentations on electrical play. But now I'm branching out. On Thursday evening, 12 June 2008 with doors opening at 7:30 PM and running to 10, I'll host the very first of what I'll call Unc's Colloquia. It'll be held at a popular and well-known venue in Santa Clara - just before San Jose Pride weekend. This idea of the series is to present to the community topics available nowhere else. I guarentee they'll be thought provoking, inspiraional, and cutting edge. Those attending will see something new and hopefully set their minds racing to find out more ...to experiment ...to discover ...to explore ...to experience ...to dicuss, debate, consider. These will be no 101-level flogging (or other such - important though they may be). These will definitely be 201 and 301 level classes.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For the first of these, I'm pleased to present qDot (a.k.a. Kyle) presenting on Teledildonics.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Coined by Ted Nelson, Teldildonics is the general field of using computer and other automation techniques to do sexual stimulations remotely. This includes using computers and the internet for sexual contact between two or more people ... or even between people and 'virtual' people or creatures. (Imagine being able to have sex with your partner from the other side of the country or 'real' sexual contact with Marilyn Monroe or Superman. Impossible? Not with teledildonics and some real clever programming and interfaces.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;But is this just a pipe dream? Just what is the state of the art? What Teledildonic devices, software, and services exist?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A survey of Teledildonics and where it stands is the subject of this presentation which launches the Unc's Colloquia series. The presenter, qDot (a.k.a. Kyle) is well qualified to speak on this subject. A software professional, his Slashdong.com website is a key resource in the field of Teledidonics and computer-based sexuality. His site includes the latest and most up-to-date information on the subject. He has also been invited to present papers on the subject at Arse-Electronika conferences.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is a definitely not-to-miss event. Not only will qDot talk about Teledildonics, he'll also show some of the devices that are available today. There'll also be live demonstrations to further illustrate the techniques. qDot will also be available to answer your questions.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This class will only be available on a pre-registration basis. The fee is a nominal $15.00 per person. The class size is limited to only 30 attendees and is filling up fast. Please understand that this class will discuss mature subject matter and, therefore, is an ADULTS ONLY event. You must be at least 21 years of age or older. You'll also be required to sign a waiver prior to entering the class. These will be available at the door. Once you've registered, you'll receive an e-mail giving you the address of the class venue.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You can register at www.eventbrite.com/event/117130340.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There are limited work scholarships available. Questions about these or about the class can be e-mailed to UncleAbdul@gmail.com.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Looking forward to seeing you at Unc's Colloquia on Thursday, 12 June 2008 at 7:30 PM
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Unc'. &lt;/div&gt;

Both Lady Hilary and The Marine believe deeply in opportunities for growth found in the leather community. They each walked into Leather some 19 years ago; they have been walking a path together as Lady and Marine since 1999.  Their Owner/property relationship has taken them on many journeys of growth, passion, and teaching. Together they, with the help of their boys, produce regular Vanguard Retreats www.vanguardleather.com, and have traveled the country and Bay Area teaching for the community, The Exiles, Alameda Leather Corps, Santa Clara County Leather, SM Odyssey, Rio Grande Leather, Southwest Leather, Dark Odyssey and The Citadel.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Over the last two decades many public play spaces have flourished and died in the bay area. Edges was built with love in the tradition of the best of these. Now we face a crossroads. The building we occupy is for sale. Ali and Alex are not able to secure a loan to buy it themselves, and unless someone steps up to purchase it from within the community it will be sold to outsiders. IT IS possible the new owners would let us stay, but at this time we have no commitment.  As a community, we not only want, but need the support of Each Of You to see this through.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you know of anyone in a position and with the inclination to buy the building and continue to rent it to Edges, please have them call Alex immediately. In the interim here is the current plan:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;In order to continue providing a space to the community, (at this physical location or another) Edges needs financial support from our greater community.  Ali has maintained Edges with NO debt for the past two years, yet neither Ali nor Alex take funds from their endeavors with Edges, but rather put all excess back into the space itself.  We need the community to take on this same go-give mentality.
&lt;br/&gt;    
&lt;br/&gt;Unfortunately Ali is in school full time, just started a new job and is about to begin her internship for her laboratory career; she simply does not have the time to manage this extra workload!  Therefore, we are looking for volunteers to manage fundraising events in the next few weeks. We need a General Manager of Fundraising, and people to organize specific events, organize the membership drive, advertise and spread the word, and more!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please call Alex directly with any ideas or your willingness to take on some of what needs to be done.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you in advance for helping us save this wonderful asset to the community!  Know that it is our intent to do everything possible to secure our current location, or ensure we have a new home for all of us! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Alex and Ali
&lt;br/&gt;408-496-1132
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Zifra has offered to take all general inquiries and offers to help.  Please contact her directly:
&lt;br/&gt;408-750-7858 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We have a minimum of two months in which to raise fund to purchase the space or move! Show us and the community your support:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;By committing yourself to visit the space at least ONCE a month, you will be helping us raise our funds. Encourage others online and through word of mouth to visit Edges' events. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you will increase your membership to the red, blue and black membership levels, you will be contributingto this community endeavor and yourself.  Your contributions will ensure that your own membership lasts!
&lt;br/&gt;If we have to close the door and are unable to reopen within 6 months, at least 50% of your increased membership will be returned!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please visit Edges during a play party to increase your membership!
&lt;br/&gt;Membership level information can be found here: http://www.edges.biz/memberships.pdf
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If the space is lost, these funds will allow Ali and Alex to secure a new space and move Edges to a new home. If the new landlord allows Edges to continue here, the funds will upgrade the space with showers, a full kitchen and the like.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We are committed to either remaining in our current home or moving! We do not plan to close our doors. Please join us in this committement and encourage others to help as well. &lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Years past, there was a very well-known whips class that went on weekly at the Circus Center in San Francisco.  For various reasons, the class eventually ended.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm quite pleased to be able to announce that a new version of the whips class is starting up again this coming March 6th.  I'll be running it as a peer workshop rather than a class, although I'll be asking various people with good whips skills to come by from time to time.  It will be held on the first and the third Thursdays of each month, in the same location as the old one, at 755 Frederick in SF (at Golden Gate Park, and by the Haight-Ashbury district.)  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This will be a general-purpose whips workshop, not something solely intended at dungeon play techniques.  Dungeon whips are welcome, as are long bullwhips.  One of the charms of using this space is that it's in a gym environment, which means even a 14 foot bullwhip won't get tangled in the ceiling.  However, since the space is vanilla, we won't be emphasizing any particular end-use for the skills we're practicing...  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The best way to get more information is from my Web page (http://www.laughingbear.org/whippery.html), and to join the tribe on Tribe.net (Grizzly's Bullwhips by the Bay, or http://tribes.tribe.net/bullwhipsbythebay).  I'd also appreciate being emailed an email address, since if tribe is down, the only way to get last-minute info out is by standard email list postings.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;The most interesting times of our sexual escapades occurred when my stepdaughter Jenna and I engaged in some rather, shall I say, kinky or bizarre activities where it seemed anything was permissible for either of us to do to each other. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She and I both were trained by Mistress Querida and enslaved to Her but occasionally Mistress would allow the two of us time to explore one another’s fantasies. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Twenty-two year old Jenna lived in Dallas where she attended post grad classes at SMU. Since marrying Jack about three years ago, I called the family ranch in Abeline home. Jenna’s father, a rather stern man who made the Air Force a career, purchased it as a dream-come-true home when his military career ended. His wife, Jenna’s biological mother, never understood the need for structure and discipline that Jack tried to instill and the two divorced shortly afterward. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My stepdaughter would try to come down for weekend visits at least twice a month and, thanks to Mistress Querida’s indulgence, we both grew to look forward to them very much. Mistress allowed Jenna and I the freedom to delve into whatever areas of BDSM we wanted. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Neither of us was consistently the aggressor. Each of us was capable of drawing out long, often agonizing semi-tortures upon the other, always leading to the highest levels of orgasm we would know, sometimes simultaneously during one of our sessions, sometimes just for the torturer, sometimes just for the victim. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We usually reserved our heaviest activity of this nature primarily to Friday or Saturday night. Jenna’s father rather enjoyed the idea of the two of us wanting to spend time together and almost always found ways to be away for those weekends. I suspected he knew what we were doing but, if he did, he never once expressed opposition or posed any obstacles. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;More often that not, our weekend explorations began on a Friday night, allowing at least one full day's recovery from the sweet pain of our bodies. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna, for her part, learned to wield a whip or a strap with such expertise that she knew just how to drain every drop of sweat from me before I succumbed to her manipulations of my body. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Learning from her, I would take a birch rod to her body and leave her dripping, both literally and figuratively. She really loved to be whipped, perhaps as much as I did. Completely wanton in her desire to achieve a new orgasmic high, Jenna would sometimes beg to treated more harshly than I thought was humanly possible. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Two weekends ago, Jenna stood in front of me as I sat on the sofa. I was wearing a dark blue skirt miniskirt with a white, cotton blouse. I left the top two buttons of the blouse undone, for "show". 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She came out of the bedroom carrying a long, thin, cruel-looking, black leather birch rod in her hand. I looked up at her, wide-eyed. She was wearing a short, black leather skirt with a matching vest, opened at the chest. She was bra-less. Half of her tits were hanging out. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mommie," she said, staring straight into my eyes, "what is the punishment for little girls who have been bad?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I smiled. "A real good whipping usually takes the badness out of them." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I felt a tingling in my loins. I wondered what I had done that was "bad". I felt like a needed a good whipping to relieve a lot of built-up tension. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Then, she turned the tables. It was she who had been bad. Really bad. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I made it with Ashley today. I cheated on you. I'm sorry." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tears actually filled her eyes. She handed me the whip. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Make me pay for it," she sobbed, lowering her head in shame. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She had never done this before--confessing and then asking to be punished for it. I was jealous enough, however, to take out some of my anger upon her beautiful body. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Your punishment, dear Jenna, will be to describe what Ashley did to you in complete detail while I give you a good thrashing. You know I am more angered by your involvement with another woman than I would be if some puny man took advantage of you. Why did you do it?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She was photographing me in the nude and offering me drinks as she went along. As time went by, the photos became more obscene. The wine went to my head so quickly. Before I knew it, she had strapped a dildo on. I hardly had time to stop her." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"But you eventually consented, of course. She didn't rape you, did she?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna sniffled. "Yes. I mean, no. She didn't rape me. I, I let her take me." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Which of you little openings did she violate?" I asked, my voice becoming more angered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh, please Mommie, I...I..." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"ANSWER ME!" I shouted. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Both," she whispered with her head bent downward. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Your ass and your pussy? With the dildo?" I asked incredulously. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tiny beads of sweat were beginning to form on her forehead now. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," she half-sobbed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I held the ominous-looking leather birch rod in my hands. She stared at it fearfully, biting her lower lip. She knew when she had chosen the rod that it was one of the more painful forms of punishment available to her. The thin, unyielding leather was one of the crueler devices, yet it was she who had chosen it. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Turn around!" I ordered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The pretty strawberry blonde turned her back to me as she faced the far wall, staring straight ahead. The soft, dark leather of her skirt molded perfectly around her gorgeous ass. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I am going to teach you a little lesson in humility, young lady. 
&lt;br/&gt;When I'm finished with you, I think you will regret submitting to Ashley today. First, I am going to give your ass a good thrashing while you tell me what she did to you. Take off your vest, then raise your skirt over your hips." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I watched the frightened blonde, my lover, who had cheated on me today pull the vest over her shoulders, then let it fall with a slight thud to the floor behind her. Her bare back looked enticingly sexy. I thought that I must mark that up also. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'm scared," she said nervously. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You should be," I replied. "Come on, let's get that skirt up nice and high!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna's trembling hands moved to the hem of the leather skirt. 
&lt;br/&gt;She knew better than to disobey me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Slowly, she eased the slithery garment upward, revealing inch by inch her soft, white legs, now closed tightly together. The leather was just thin enough to allow her expose the backside of a pure white pair of silky undies. The view from behind was already causing my juices to flow onto the crotch of my own panties. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Without saying a word, I leaned forward, reached my hands under the raised skirt, located the elastic top of her silky whites, and quickly drew the soft material downward, exposing the lower crack of Jenna's ass, her split pumpkin. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I whisked the panties all the way down her legs. Obediently, she stepped out of them. She was naked now, save the skirt which she continued to hold waist high. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Stay like that," I ordered. "If your skirt falls down when I am beating you, the whipping will get worse. Do you understand?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," she replied with a slight sniffle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Did Ashley eat your sweet little pussy before she defiled you with the dildo?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Y-yes," cried Jenna. "I was afraid she would hurt me if I didn't let her do it." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Using her answer as the key to begin the whipping, I arose from my seat, stood behind the standing girl, and with a quick flick of the wrist, drove the taut whip sharply into Jenna's alabaster buttocks. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"AHHHH!" shouted the pretty blonde, her knees buckling slightly from the blow. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Tell me what she did!" I watched the area that I had just struck redden as she spoke. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She pushed me on the bed and held me with her hands. I had no clothes on. She sat over me, on top of my chest, and forced my legs apart. She was already wearing the dildo. I was so scared." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"How long did it take her to eat you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"About 15 minutes. That's all. Oh, Mommie, I'm so sorry!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Did you come?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There was a long, pregnant pause. Jenna's face grimaced, as if in pain (or was she merely bracing herself for my next stroke?). 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Y- yes, I couldn't help it." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The next lash was even harder than the first, right across the juncture where her upper thighs and lower ass met, a very tender spot indeed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna screamed out loud and literally jumped off the floor as the thin leather bit into her. How she maintained her hold on up upraised skirt I'll never know. She fell several steps forward. I followed right behind her, holding the stiff rod with two hands. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;“In across your ass to be nice and tight, you little whore!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Still reaching behind her to keep her skirt held up over her sweet buns, Jenna bent at the waist, poking her ass invitingly outward. Her legs parted even more as she sought to maintain her balance. The soft, blonde hairs of her pussy sprouted from the apex of the "V" created by her legs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Then what happened?" I asked, staring at my lover's gorgeous ass. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She, she turned around and faced me, her body between my legs. 
&lt;br/&gt;I could feel the dildo touching me down there, right on my pussy. She told me not to move, that she would do all the work. I felt it going into me." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;With her last words, I drove the leather rod in an upward direction, slicing it across the fullness of her buttocks. She squealed like a stuck pick. Little droplets of tears fell silently to the floor. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Did she kiss you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Y-yes," replied Jenna. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Where? On your lips?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," she mumbled. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;THWACK!!! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I gave her a short, quick stroke across her thighs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"On your breasts?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Y-yes," she replied in a gasp of pain. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;THWACK!!! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Another stroke, on the right side of her naked buttock. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She sucked your nipples?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Please, no more," begged the now sobbing blonde. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'll stop, if you really want, if you feel you've been punished enough for what you did." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It was her decision whether or not to go on. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She thought for a few seconds. "I haven't been punished enough," she half-whispered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"SAY IT LOUDER!" I commanded. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Punish me more, mistress!" she blurted loudly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I had a feeling she wanted some more. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Then answer my question, Jenna--did she suck your nipples?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes, for a long time. All the while she was taking me with the dildo." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I watched her brace herself. Her body tightened just before I gave her three quick strokes, in succession, beginning at the top and working down her now well-striped derriere. Instead of crying out, however, she was beginning to moan now between her elongated gasps for air. It was sound I knew well. Her orgasm would not be far behind. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"How did she take your ass?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Do I have to tell you?" she cried, rubbing the palms of her hands over her naked ass, trying to soothe the burning pain. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Tell me! Move your hands away from your ass!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She moved her hands to her hips. Her hips were swaying gently back and forth. Her knees were just a bit wobbly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She dragged me to an arm chair. She made me kneel on it, facing the back of the chair." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Did she grease you up first?" I asked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There was a pause again. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Well, not exactly," she hesitatingly replied. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What do you mean 'Not exactly'?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"She, well, you know, she used her mouth to lubricate me." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You let her tongue your asshole?" I asked incredulously. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna gulped. Her silence was an affirmative answer to my question. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Without hesitation, I began a long series of at least 10 or 12 sharp strokes all over her ass and thighs. As she fell forward from the blows, I followed her, taking aim at the now criss-crossed ass and wielding whip unmercifully. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At about the sixth stroke, her moans turned to long "WHOOOOO'S". It was the sound I was waiting for, the sign that no matter how hard the next strokes would be, she had reached fulfillment. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The last six lashes were only for show, she had finally reached her limit. Her body fell in a heap to the floor, shaking spasmodically, as her orgasm overwhelmed her. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I watched her half-naked body twitch for several minutes, as she slowly came down from her high. I fell back onto the sofa, exhausted myself. My panties were completely soaked. I felt like taking them off, to air out my pulsating pussy. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I would wait and let Jenna do it for me. She arose slowly, almost painfully. Her brow was filled with beads of sweat. Her skirt fell down beneath the 'V' of her legs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She slinked down next to me, breasts heaving, and wrapped herself around me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Thank you," she whispered into my ear. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My arms embraced her naked back, now warm with perspiration. "Was I too hard on you?" I asked compassionately. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Maybe," she replied. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You deserved every bit of it," I said with a smile. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I wouldn't let Ashley do that to me, you fool. I love you too much." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What?" I gasped. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I made it up. I wanted to see what you would do if I ever did let her do something like that." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Why you little stinker! And what lesson did you learn?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna laughed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmmm. I learned that it she ever does do that to me, that I better tell you, so you can beat the shit out of me again.Just like you just did. Oh, did that ever feel good!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She had fabricated the story, just to arouse my anger, to test my level of jealousy. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We fell along the sofa, side by side, still embracing. I felt Jenna's knee insinuating between my legs, pushing my skirt up in the process. I opened up slightly to accommodate her. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As her upper knee pressed into my cum-soaked panty crotch, I squeezed my own legs against her invading leg, trapping it in place. I pressed my groin into the hardness between my legs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Entwined together, embracing each other, our kiss was long and passionate, filled with wetness. Tongue to tongue, we kissed for an eternity. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna pushed her knee harder into my sex, pressing against my engorged clitoris. Locating a naked breast, I squeezed her melon gently, flicking my thumb over her turgid nipple. She moaned softly into my mouth, a deep, throaty moan. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"It's not fair," I said, breaking the kiss. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What?" she asked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"That all your tensions are relieved, and mine aren't." I smiled. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I suppose I could take care of that," she whispered, gently insinuating her right hand between her knee and my throbbing crotch. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Quickly, she located my clit beneath the thin material with her middle finger and stroked it back and forth. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh! That feels so good, Jenna!" I gasped, opening my legs even wider to accommodate her. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You're all wet down here!" she exclaimed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"See what you do to me!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What would you like me to do to you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I looked into her deep blue eyes, far into her subconscious. Our eyes met for an eternity. She licked her upper lip with the very tip of her tongue. I wanted her more than ever. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Just what I did to you," I whispered sexily, not taking my eyes from hers, "only more." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna smiled broadly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I don't know if you could take it," she said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I can take anything you can dish out. I want you to work me over like never before, from head to toe. Front and back. Everywhere." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Everywhere?" she exclaimed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," I replied. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Will you do it for me, please?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'm afraid of hurting you, Mommie." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I want you to hurt me, Jenna. Don't you understand? I need something only you can give me. I trust you. But you must promise me something." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What is it?" she asked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"That you won't hold back. Even when I'm screaming for mercy. 
&lt;br/&gt;That you won't finish my body is tingling all over, and I mean 'All over'". 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What do you want me to use on you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Whatever you think is appropriate for the part of the body you're pulverizing. It's your choice. The paddle, the pussy whip, the birch rod, the cat-o-nine tails, the zinger--anything your heart desires. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;“Must make it feel good, love." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I was so hot, I could taste the lashes already. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Go get all the whips." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna pushed herself away from me. While I remain prone on the sofa, she slipped into the bedroom and soon returned with an armful of pain. I had purposely not adjusted my position. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;With my skirt three- fourths of the way up my thighs, my lover had an unobstructed view of the entire length of my panty-covered crotch. Her eyes zeroed in on me there as she moved closer to me. She dropped the whips on a chair, then stood over me, still staring between my spread legs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You are wanton," she said, gulping slightly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I didn't reply. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I knew she wanted to dive between my legs and suck me off. Later. 
&lt;br/&gt;Her leather vest was opened completely, exposing her beautiful breasts. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Her chest heaved. Her hands were on her hips, over the supple leather skirt. Her eyes were full of fire. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Get up," she commanded. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I arose, moving my legs slowly enough to permit her a long, wide- eyed view of my now steaming sex. She turned to the right and moved closer to me. Her eyes surveyed my fully clothed body. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Do you want to be tied up?" she asked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No," I softly replied, acting as complacent as possible. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Are you sure? You're really going to be jumping around after I get started on you." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'm sure," I said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I wanted the effect to be felt more fully this way. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Remove your clothes, please," she said nonchalantly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Everything?" I asked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I want to see nothing but skin, young lady. Pure, white skin. 
&lt;br/&gt;Get on with it!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Nervously, my fingers moved to my white cotton blouse and fumbled with the button between my tits. I felt Jenna's eyes on my hands as I continued the downward trek, loosening each button, opening more of myself up to her with each one. Pulling the shirt tails from beneath the waistband of my skirt, I undid the final two buttons. I looked at her face as I pulled the material apart. Her eyes were fixed on my chest, now clad in only a thin, white, lacey bra which hid little of my swollen breasts. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I liked the feeling of being made to undress in front of her. It heightened my excitement. My fingers moved to the belt buckle at my waist, quickly releasing joining halves. The button and zipper at the side of dark blue skirt were next. The sound of the zipper being lowered broke the pregnant, sexy silence in the room. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;With just a slight push downward, the skirt fell in a heap around my feet. I stepped out of the material, clad only in my bra and panties. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I held my left hand in front of the 'V' of my crotch, while my right forearm crossed in front of my breasts. Feigning shyness, I looked at my lover, soon to be my tormentor. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Can I leave my bra and panties on? I don't like to be naked in front of someone." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna gritted her teeth, playing my silly game to the hilt. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Reaching behind her, she picked up the ominous-looking cat-o-nine tails. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Take them off or I'll use this monster between your legs!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She play-acted so perfectly. I really felt like a victim of some cruel-hearted mistress. Looking away from her in shame, my degradation continued as I moved my hands behind my back and undid the bra strap there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Immediately, I felt my breasts fall free as I leaned forward and let the bra slide down my arms. I watched it fall to the floor, like a rose petal. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Straightening up, my forearm moved in front of my naked breasts, over my now turgid nipples. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Move you arm away from your tits!" she commanded. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I did, exposing my bare chest to the world in front of me. My huge melons swayed slightly like globs of jelly. I felt her eyes on them. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Your panties," she said, leaving the verb out of her sentence. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Lowering my head in humiliation, I placed my thumbs into the band of the bikini-styled undies at either side of my hips and began pushing the material downward. Watching the path of the panties with my own eyes, knowing that Jenna's were there too, 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I stopped after exposing about an inch of dark brown curls from my upper pubis. I looked back at Jenna, head cocked to the side, mouth opened slightly, a look of "Do I have to?" in my eyes. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;All she had to do was raise the cat-o-nine tails above her shoulder. In a whisk, the panties were off my legs. In bending, my mammaries hung down from my chest in their weightiness. Kicking the panties to side on the carpet, I stood up straight, hands at my side, completely naked. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Make your nipples more hard," she ordered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Face reddening, but with unquestioned obedience, I moved a thumb and index finger of each hand to the red nubbins and began squeezing them, moving the nipples back and forth between my fingers, exciting the nerve endings surrounding them. Soon, they became hard, pebble like, swollen. Jenna's eyes bulged as she watched me perform my manipulations. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"If you can't squeeze them any harder than that, I can!" she exclaimed, moving behind me now and brushing my hands away from my breasts. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Don't move!" she said, reaching around in front of me and replacing my fingers with hers. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"OH! THAT HURTS!" I whimpered as Jenna squeezed each rock-hard nipple between her fingers. It really did hurt, but it felt good. I liked to be treated like this. My arousal was reaching unbelievable heights. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Quiet!" she hissed between her teeth, using her mock anger to squeeze me all the more hard. I grimaced in pain, cocking my head back. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I felt her breath on my neck. Her leather vest pressed into my back. 
&lt;br/&gt;I wanted her naked, too, so I could feel her skin against mine. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She must have squeezed the sensitive nubbins for a full five minutes, unrelenting in her movements, continually applying pressure to my aching nipples. My breathing became heavier with each passing moment 
&lt;br/&gt;. 
&lt;br/&gt;"Why are you so wanton?" she whispered into my ear. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I didn't answer her. My groans filled the room. Still, she kept the pressure on me, pulling the sensitive protuberances away from my melons, stretching the skin of the surrounding areolas. Finally, when she stopped, releasing the nipples like hot pieces of coal, the whole front of both of my tits tingled with a eerie warmth. Yes, I am wanton, Jenna. So very, very wanton. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Stay still," she said insistently, wrapping her right arm around my waist and grasping me tightly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She placed her left hand between my shoulder blades, pushing forward. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Bend over a little," she ordered, using her hand to urge me in that direction. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My nipples were still sore. Were my breasts in for some more torture? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What are you going to do?" I asked nervously, my body now bent slightly at the waist. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Shush!" she said, taking her hand from my naked back. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At first it surprised me, the feeling of something pressing into the lower crack of my ass, insinuating itself just outside my anus. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Soon, I realized it was Jenna's thumb. I gasped out loud. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Not there!" I cried. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes, there.' she snarled, pressing the full of her thumb against my rubbery nether hole. "And if you move away, I'll blister this sweet little ass of yours with a rubber hose." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Her finger, wedged in the cheeks of my ass, turned a slow circle around my crinkly rosebud. With each circular movement, she pressed harder into the circle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;“On your finger," I said beseechingly. "With an asshole as big as yours, I don't need lubrication. If you just relax and let it happen, it won't hurt. I'm not going to stop until I'm inside you, if it takes all night. Let it happen, Jenna. 
&lt;br/&gt;Relax." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I did as she wanted, concentrating on letting my sphincter slacken as she pressed inward. I couldn't let on, but the sensation was exquisite. I would have let her drive a truck into me there, so much did I enjoy having my backside violated. Soon, I felt the tip of her thumb break through the yielding door to my rectal area and glide into me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"AHH!" I gasped, feigning pain but feeling nothing but pleasure. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The digit entered me completely, pressing against the walls of my rectum, exciting the soft, warm tissues inside. I encircled the invading finger with my sphincter muscle, cradling it within me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As I squeezed my anal muscle tightly, Jenna began to piston it back and forth. I wanted to cry out with happiness, so beautiful was the feeling inside me there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"OH! That hurts!" I lied. "Please stop!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"When I'm done," she husked. "Stay still!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For the next ten minutes, Jenna violated my asshole with her thumb, unrelentingly driving it in and out of me, all the while holding me tightly around the waist to prevent me from falling forward. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She knew I loved to have things shoved deep into my ass--anything--clothes pins, cucumbers, broom handles, fingers, toes, tongues, anything that would fit inside my tight little hole I gladly accepted in wanton pleasure. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just as I was on the brink, within an eyelash of the delicious orgasm I needed so badly, she pulled out. Just like that it was gone from me. I felt empty inside. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I think you're ready for your whipping now. Look at the insides of your thighs. They're wet with your juices. You're flowing like a stream, honey. Shame on you. You'll pay more dearly because you like to be humiliated so much." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She reached inside my slightly spread legs and wiped some of the cum with the palm of her hand. I hadn't realized I was secreting so much vaginal fluids. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna released her hold around my waist. I straightened up, arms at my sides. She made me turn, to face her. Beads of sweat formed on my brow. She looked so cruel. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What will it be first, young lady, your ass, your legs, your breasts, your back....where do you want to feel the sting of the whip upon your body?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My chest heaved, the breasts hanging weighty in their fullness. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My nipples were more like thumb-tips, hard and engorged. Although my head was lowered in submissiveness, I felt Jenna's eyes on the melons. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You won't whip me too hard?" I choked on my words. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Hard enough," she replied. "Oh, it's so hard to decide where to start. Cup your breasts! Hold them up for me!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My face reddening, I brought the palms of my hands beneath the hanging gourds and lifted each of them up. Even I couldn't believe how heavy and swollen they felt. I knew how much Jenna loved them, and how much I loved to have her caress them for me. I've come more than once just by her sucking at length on my nipples. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," she whispered. "They are beautiful, Mommie. What a shame to have to hurt them." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"They're very sensitive," I whined. "Perhaps you should concentrate on my buttocks." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna laughed out loud. "And maybe I should just use a feather on you! Who are you kidding? Look at me, Mommie!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She put two fingers under my chin and forced my head up. Her eyes were filled with fire. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You are not here for some fun and relaxation. You need a good beating, and that's what I'm going to do. Don't place any restrictions on how I do it. You'll take whatever I dish out, and then beg for more if I want you to. In fact, you can start begging right now! Kneel down!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Still cupping my breasts, I knelt in front of her, obediently, my eyes on the floor beneath my knees. Looking down at my nakedness, I saw my own curly, dark brown pubic bush which seemed so full at the juncture where my legs met in an inverted 'V'. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Tell me you want me to whip you!" she commanded. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I raised my head slightly, my mouth half opened. "I, I want you to whip me," I said, my voice hardly above a whisper. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I can't hear you, Mommie." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I want you...I want you to whip me," I blurted. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"That's much better. And how hard does the young lady want me to whip her?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I, I...." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Come on, I haven't got all night!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Very hard," I said with a big gulp. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Hold your tits higher--they're sagging too much!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna then walked in a complete circle around me, surveying the territory she was about to inflict pain upon, studying me carefully. As she came around to my right side she turned and bent over the chair on which she had thrown all the whips. Out of the corner of my eye I watched her sift through the field of leather monsters. I wondered which she would chose first. My heart was pounding inside my chest. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Finally she turned, holding a pussy whip, an extremely painful, black-handled device with one single, eight-inch strand, at the end of which was a knurled button, perhaps a quarter inch in diameter. The one piece thong was bad enough--but its knurled end was a real pain inducer. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Wielded properly, it could invoke sharp, biting stings that would send jolts of anguish quickly into the targeted area. It's primary use, for those brave enough to take it, and from whence it gets its name, is on the female genitalia, where the clitoris, pussy lips and vaginal entrance are extremely vulnerable to the knurled knob. Jenna had used it on me there before, just hard enough to give me a few good jolts, and I often reciprocated. The minute I saw the device, my loins began to tingle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My eyes followed her as she turned, moved in front of me, then sat on the sofa, facing me. She held the whip in her right hand, its strand hanging limply between her slightly parted legs. She looked into my puppy-dog eyes, searching for my fear and finding it deep inside me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I showed it to her with a tiny gulp. The corners of her mouth moved into a half-smile. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"This one can really hurt," she said, referring to the pussy whip she was holding. "I think it's an excellent one to begin our little session with, don't you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I didn't answer her. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She smiled slightly once more, the softness of her face belying the thoughts in her mind. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"A pussy whip," she continued, "doesn't it look terrifying, Mommie. I've never really used it hard on you, have I?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I shook my head in agreement, not taking my eyes from hers. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"It isn't only for pussies, though, it can be devastating on other parts of the body as well. Like, well like your breasts, for instance." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A chill went through my body as she flicked her wrist slightly, the thin leather thong turning a few quick circles at the end of the wooden handle. Her eyes went straight to my still cupped tits. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmmmmmm, yes. That would hurt a bit, wouldn't it?" she asked rhetorically. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"My breasts are very sensitive," I whimpered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Tell me, Mommie, why are you holding your breasts like that?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Uh, because you asked me to." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No, silly. I mean, why would I ask you to?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I thought for a moment. "Well, you wanted me to offer them to you." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Of course. So they are mine now?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I lowered my head once more. "My whole body is yours, mistress," I whispered. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"To do with as I please." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," I said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Close your eyes, my dear." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She always made me close my eyes before whipping me. It served to heighten my fear, not being able to see when the stroke would come, or how hard it was being wielded. The slight rustling I could hear in front of me told me she had shifted forward on the sofa, moving closer to me. In my mind's eye, I could see the pussy whip being held aloft, above my waiting breasts. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Push your nipples up higher," she commanded. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh, no, not my nipples!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I thought as I dutifully pointed the red- circled nubbins in Jenna's direction, wincing my eyes in anticipation of what was to come. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What a beautiful target," she said softly, talking to herself. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'm so scared," I said, half-whining, expecting the first stroke to come down upon my sensitive tissues at any time. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"That helps the atmosphere, darling. I want you to be scared. You still want me to work you over real good, don't you?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Y-yes," I replied, still keeping my eyes tightly shut, for the first time thinking to myself that maybe it wasn't as good an idea as I had originally envisioned. Jenna was the type who liked to surprise her victims. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmm, such a big nipple!" she exclaimed, emphasizing the word "big". "When I'm done with you, if it doesn't hurt too much from the whipping, I'll suck it nice and slow for you." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes, I would like that," I said, my voice cracking in nervousness. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmm, maybe one nice stroke, then one long suck. On each of them. 
&lt;br/&gt;Just alternate back and forth. Would you like that, Mommie?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I tried to swallow, but nothing was there. My breasts felt so heavy in my hands, my nipples so exposed and imperiled. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"If you wish, mistress," I softly replied, ever the faithful subservient. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I won't leave any lasting marks," said Jenna. "We'll have just one whole body striped and blotched in pretty shades of red, from top to bottom. We don't want to leave any area ignored, do we?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hardly had the words left her mouth than the whistle of the pussy whip gliding through the air filled my ears. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Formulating the answer to her question in my mind, I guess I wasn't quite prepared for the stroke at that moment. Taking careful aim, she drove the full force of the thin leather strand along the upper portion of my proffered right breast. The tell-tale crack of leather into my sensitive flesh was followed in milliseconds by a searing, burning pain, electric-like in its intensity, throughout the whole gland. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"AHHHHHHHH!" I cried, throwing my head back in pain, contorting my face, gasping for my next few breaths. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Dear me," she said softly, "Such a loud scream for just the first stroke. Let's try to be a bit more brave, my dear, or this will be a long, long night for the both us." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I was breathing audibly and quickly through my mouth. My right tit hurt like hell, but why, deep inside, did I want more? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I can take it," I cried. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh, I know you can, Mommie," she said with a flick of her wrist, sending a second lash into me, this time on my left breast, across the top. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"EEEEEYAAAA!" I shouted, falling slightly forward from the sharp pain which was unbelievable in its intensity on my delicate flesh. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"And we haven't even scorched the nipple yet! This could be fun!" she said gleefully. "Shall I stop, Mommie?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I took a long, deep breath through my mouth, letting the air fill my lungs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No," I said, quite bravely, letting the air out as soon as I had spoken. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I hope you won't be sorry," she said, shifting her body once more on the sofa, bettering her angle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My eyes were shut as tightly as possible, as I braced myself for the next lash. To my surprise, she went right to work on my defenseless, ultra-sensitive nipples. Although she had to have held back something out of deference to my ability to withstand pain, the next stroke landed right on the button, the wicked knurled end of the cruel thong catching my right nipple with its full force. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A thousand needles jammed into me there could not have hurt so much. 
&lt;br/&gt;I let out a long, blood-curdling scream, at the top of my lungs, as I fell forward onto the rug beneath me, in a heap, grabbing the poor nipple with my right hand in a vain effort to douse the flame there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My breaths now game in gasps. I curled up into a fetal position. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I'm sorry," she said. "I didn't mean..." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Shut up," I interrupted not wanting her to spoil this fantasy. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I told you I can take it. I want you to give it to me. This is just the beginning." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The searing pain radiated from the recently stuck nipple throughout my entire breast. The nubbin seemed to be throbbing as the delicate nerve endings sent messages of burning pain to my mind. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You surprise me," whispered Jenna. "I've known you all this time, but I didn't ever think you were up to this sort of thing. I'd have thrown in the towel ten minutes ago." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I smiled, feeling the pain in my swollen nipple begin to subside slightly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I can't explain it. It's like there is something inside me that makes me want you to do that, just like you did. Don't be afraid, Jenna. It hurt like hell, but only for a moment. It just sort of tingles now. It makes me feel good. I'll let you know if you go too far. Just give me a real good workout, head to toe, and when you're done, I'll give you the best tongue job you ever had." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You do give great head," she said with a broad smile. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"The best, but I've held the best of the best back for an occasion just like this," I whispered sexily. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You mean the more I hurt you, the better your tongue gets?" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You might say that," I replied, the glint in my eyes exposing the truth of my statement. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She smiled broadly, knowing that she had a strange power over me now. I was practically begging for her to go all out. From this moment on, her innate sense of hurting me too much seemed to disappear. I had given her a good reason to really give it to me, if she wanted to, and I taken away any incentives to hold back. The ball was in her court now. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You are either exceedingly brave or extremely foolish," she said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"In either case it's obvious that you think you have a high tolerance for pain. We'll see how true that is very shortly. Turn around and face the wall." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Still in a kneeling position, I turned awkwardly on my knees, my breasts swaying back and forth as I moved. My entire backside was now exposed. I knelt.... Waiting.... 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She kept me in that position for several moments, surveying me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The suspense was killing me. Finally, I heard her move. From behind me, she arose from the sofa and returned to the chair upon which she had placed all the whips. I stopped bracing myself for the pain. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The momentary lapse felt good. A kind of relief swept over me. A moment's reprieve. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Relax, Mommie," I told myself, "you were the one who wanted this." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Bending over once more, Jenna rummaged through the whips once more before straightening up and turning back in my direction. In her hand was a cat-o-nine tails, the strands hanging ominously down and seeming to jingle silently as she moved behind me once more. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The fear returned quickly. The cat could hurt. My back and my buttocks lay bare, uncovered, exposed. "Raise your arms over your head and bend forward slightly," she commanded. I obeyed, instinctively, my humongous breasts hanging in their fullness. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Are you ready?," she asked tantalizingly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," I gulped. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Count the strokes," she said, standing behind me, raising the cat- whip over her right shoulder, taking careful aim, and bringing the nine strands down upon my bare back, just above my right shoulder blade. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"EEEE-YAAAA! ONE!" I cried as each wicked strand found its own area to sting me, most of them biting across my shoulder and clavicle. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Good girl," she continued, snapping her wrist sharply and driving the nine leather thongs horizontally across the upper left side of my back. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"AHHHHHHH! TWO!" I shouted out. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"THWACK!!!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The loud crack of the wicked whip right between my shoulder blades sent electrical impulses along the length of my spinal cord. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"OHHHH! THREE!" I cried, followed by a long moan. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I want your tongue like never before!" she exclaimed, taking the whip with two hands and sending it screaming across the small of my back. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The moan and scream that followed this last stroke seemed to come from deep within me. My back seemed to be on fire. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"FOUR!" I shouted at the end of my scream, punctuated by heavy breathing. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You love this, don't you, you little whore!" bellowed Jenna. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Before I could answer, the fifth stroke came lashing across the full of my back like a thief in the night, robbing me of my dignity. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"EEEEEEE! AHHHHHH!" I shrieked. "FIVE!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My throat, now completely dry, making my count more difficult. My back felt as if a thousand burning needles had simultaneously penetrated me there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tears streamed down my cheeks in torrents from the pain, but I wasn't crying out loud. Why did I want more of this torment? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna moved closer to me, then, bending slightly, brought the fingernails of her left hand to a point just below the nape of my neck. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Gently, soothingly, she began to move the nails in a slow, circular pattern all over my burning back. The effect was tremendously tranquilizing. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I know it hurts, baby," she whispered in a comforting voice. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh, Jenna...." I started to say in a whimper. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Shhhh," she interrupted, her voice soft as a glove. "Soon it will feel good." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I closed my eyes, knowing she was right. When she arose, the burning feeling across my back had subsided. I was ready for more. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I like how you do it," I said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I know," she replied. "We all need this sometimes." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Without warning, her gentle words were followed by another biting lash, again over my right shoulder blade. The outer tentacles of the whip reached all the way around to the front of my clavicle, the cruel tips digging into me there. As I screamed out once more, I wanted to lower my arms and soothe my hurt, but I knew I couldn't. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Over the next five minutes, my counting continued, all the way up to twelve. Twelve hard, full, biting, stinging, lashing, burning strokes with the cat-o-nine tails that left me sobbing and sweating. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When she was done with my back, she surveyed the damage. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh, Mommie, your back is one big, red blotch. You should see all the whip marks. It looks beautiful!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I said nothing in reply, my breathing too laborious at this point to even try to talk. Sweat poured in torrents from my brow. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Put your elbows on the rug," said Jenna. "I want your ass up- -well up!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Quickly, I obeyed. My breasts now hung between the back of my arms and the front of my knees. My nipples scraped the rug. It was obvious what was next. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You ass surpasses us all," she whispered, then followed her words with a driving slash of the cat-whip upon my right buttock. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My position had tightened the skin across my ass, making the nerves even more vulnerable to pain. I nearly jumped off the floor as the crack of the leather into flesh shot into me like tiny knives. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I cried in agonizing pain. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Dear me," she said above my sobs. "Just loud crying from such a little girl. We must have caught a few nerve endings, didn't we." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Without waiting for an answer I was too weary to provide anyway, Jenna drove another lash of the cat horizontally, across the crack of my ass. The leather thongs, all nine of them, found their own little area on my exposed behind and inflicted not one, but nine separate stings simultaneously. The pain this time was so much that I just made a long "WHOOOOO" sound. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"We're getting there, aren't we, Mommie," offered Jenna as she took very careful aim and lashed the tentacles vertically, right along the length of the divide of my pumpkin, the ends finding their cruel way into the crack separating the halves of my ass. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This time, the pain was unreal! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I fell forward, in a heap, crying out agonizingly, my hands reflexively seeking my burning buttocks in a vain effort to douse the fire back there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Move your hands!" shouted Jenna. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"OH! It hurts so bad!" I cried. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"But you want more!" she yelled over my sobs. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes! Yes!" I bellowed over my pain. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Then pay the price, you whore! Get back on your knees and bend all the way over!" Slowly, tortuously, I arose from my more safe position on the floor and pointed my beleaguered buttocks once more in the air, invitingly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;As I started to put my elbows on the floor, she stopped me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"No," she said. "Reach behind you and spread your cheeks apart with your fingers. Show me that cute little rosebud." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hesitatingly, I moved my hands to my buttocks. Using four fingers from each hand, I pried the split pumpkin apart, exposing my round, crinkly anus to the cruel night air. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"What are you going to do?" I asked, an obvious tone of fear in my voice. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"A final test," she replied. "To see the real level of your endurance." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I could feel her eyes on my nether opening. I had never felt so exposed in my life. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Your anus looks so defenseless." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Oh no!" I cried. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Say 'NO' and I won't. I'll just tongue you there, real good. Say 'YES' and I will, and later my tongue will feel a thousand times better," she said. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My mind raced. Was I insane? Here I was, exposing my most private of body parts to my lover. Oh, I had done it before. Many times. But never like this, and never with the thought that excruciating pain would result. Would her insatiable tongue feel better before or after the pain? The decision was mine. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," I whispered, holding my breath as I the word escaped my mouth. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What a price to pay for my tenacity! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Good," she said softly, "then I'll double the treat. Once before I do it and once after." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna slinked to a sitting position on the floor behind me, her legs to either side of mine, her face even with my upraised ass. In the process, her skirt slid so far up her legs, she might as well not have been wearing one. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Not one to lose the advantage of such a position, I parted my legs just a bit more by moving my knees apart a few more inches. The effect was perfect--with my head almost touching the floor I had unobstructed vision between my own legs as I looked behind me. It was no surprise to me, then, that I had an excellent view of the entire length of the pure white, silky crotch of Jenna's panties. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Had she opened her legs for me purposely? Did she even know what a beautiful view I had? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Wide-eyed, I surveyed the gaping crotch, reveling in the sight of the few golden pubic curls which peaked out from both sides of the reinforced band of white, behind which lay her gorgeous honey-dewed pussy. She inched even closer to me, spreading herself more in the process. The panty crotch was stretched so tightly I thought it would snap. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At first, I felt her hands running over my still smarting ass, soothing what little pain remained, running her fingertips from time to time inside the dividing crack, but avoiding my anal region like the plague, knowing that the closer she got to it, the more excited I became. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My hands were still spreading my lower ass cheeks apart; she pushed them away, losing her close-up view of my puckered anus in the process, but giving her an opportunity to survey the entire area of each side of my split pumpkin with her roving fingers. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Looking right into the epicenter of her panty crotch, I could see Jenna was soaking wet. Taking a deep breath, I even smelled her womanly odor. The pungent fragrance filled my nostrils and turned me on even more. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Do you like it when I suck your asshole?" asked Jenna, moving her fingertips at least to either side of the lower crack of my ass, but not separating the halves yet, just teasing me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The vulgarity of her statement didn't annoy me; I loved it when she talked dirty to me. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Yes," I replied, trying to swallow upward. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I love your little asshole so much," she whispered, finally opening me up there with her prying fingers, exposing the crinkly rosebud once more. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmmm," she hummed, "it's so cute and tiny! I'll never figure out how we can get some of the things we do into that little hole!" 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She laughed. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Had I been standing, I would have been blushing profusely. My position, fortunately, had already reddened my face, though Jenna was unable to see it anyway from her vantage point. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I love it when you put your tongue in my ass," I whispered sexily, still staring into my lover's panty-covered crotch. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You do it so well." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;She pried me apart even further, concentrating with the tips of her thumbs now on each side of my anal button, forcing open the nether portal, giving her a wide open target for her brilliant tongue. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I can almost see inside you," she said in a matter-of-fact way, peering right into the opened walls. I felt like I was under a microscope. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jenna brought her nose to my spread crack, almost brushing against my gaping anus. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Mmm, you smell so fresh," she whispered, taking in the aroma of me there. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"I just took a bath a few hours ago. I always wash real good there." 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Do you finger yourself there when you wash it?" she asked with a broad smile. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"You know I do," I laughed. It was my
