In my dream last night I was a lady’s maid to a beautiful, demanding woman.
When she was interviewing me for the position, she said: “I have only two requirements: that you love me, and that you love being punished by me. Everything else flows from that.”
I didn’t quite understand at the time what she meant. I was quite prepared to be devoted to her needs, and it was easy to become fond of her. But at one point I was tidying her jewellery, and allowed two strings of pearls to get tangled. My mistress caught me trying to untangled them again, and immediately became annoyed.
“Fetch me a hairbrush,” she commanded. “Right now.”
When she saw tear spring to my eyes, she was even more angry: “Did I not say you were to love being punished by me? I will see some proper gratitude as I spank you.”
And so, as she spanked me, she insisted that I smiled, and afterwards, she made me describe to her how wonderful it was to receive discipline from her hand.
And you know what? It was rather good, in fact.
Admitting it was wonderful to receive a punishment is fine. Smiling during it? I’m really not sure I could manage that – and if I did it would be EXTREMELY strange. And probably not much fun…
Having said that, this whole scenario is yummy. I wouldn’t mind living in your subconscious 😉
