I gently take her hand in mine, and pull her arm towards me. Pressing the bite of the rope gently onto her wrist, I take my time wrapping the length around her wrist and palm; it’s not a complicated knot, but it is elegant in its simplicity, distributing load on both the wrist and palm, and providing something to hold onto. I feel her tense as I abruptly tighten the finished work, and I drink in her reaction as I demonstrate its effectiveness by pulling the lead: her hand and arm are now mine.

I tie the lead to the top corner of our sturdy bedframe, leaving her facing the bed, her bare back towards me and the rest of the room.

I repeat the process with her other wrist: slowly, gently tying, forcefully securing, and firmly anchoring her arms wide and high above her. Helpless.

I admire my work for a moment. She can twist and squirm, but not by much. My mouth curls into a predatory grin as I take in the sight of her completely vulnerable before me.

Her skin has goosebumps as I run a finger from the nape of her neck, down her exposed back. “You’re going to make such a lovely canvas for me, my love. Now… one more time, what’s the safe word to stop?”

“‘Red’, Ma’am.”

“Good. And to slow down or change something?”

“‘Yellow’, Ma’am.”

“That’s my good girl. And finally, the one for ‘all good, keep going’?”

“‘Green’, Ma’am.”

“And right now, what colour are you?”

“Green. Please, I want this. I need this. Green.”

“Perfect.”

My tools are laid out neatly on the bed. I ponder for a moment before touching a heavy flogger. Running my hand down the handle, then along its strands, I savour the sensations and let her stew in anticipation before picking it up, and declaring, “Yes, I think this will do. Perfect to put a nice but of colour on that exposed skin of yours.”

She shudders, a small smile on her lips. This one is her favourite.

I take time to reacclimate myself with the flogger as I walk back behind her, feeling its weight, its balance. It is properly heavy, its many thick strands counterbalanced by over a foot of solid wooden handle.

Beginning to swirl the flogger in a familiar pattern, I instruct her: “No need to count or thank me today, my love. I simply want you to feel what I give you and let yourself react.” And before she can acknowledge the command, the flogger lands on the centre of her back, a solid blow that is rewarded with a soft cry.

I begin a slow, steady rhythm: a blow, then two whirls in the air to build momentum and select my next target. Her responses are a melody and dance to the rhythm I set out: a soft cry, a jump, then a hint of a moan as she relaxes into her bonds. Little by little, I up the tempo, until eventually each swing of the flogger is making contact; a relentless series of blows, her cries and moans blending into one long utterance punctuated only by her drawing of breath and the sound of leather slapping into skin.

After several minutes, there is sweat running down my back. Her skin is glistening, highlighting a perfect pink-going-on-red from her shoulders all the way down to her thighs, the blood coming close to the surface. I cease my assault, and we each catch our breath. I step close to her, and trace little patterns on her skin with my fingertips, admiring my handiwork. “Beautiful,” I murmur in her ear, “But I’m only just getting started. Colour?”

“Green, Ma’am.”

“Good girl. Now then… let’s give you some more colour on that pretty little ass of yours, shall we?”

I set down the flogger, and her eyes widen as I choose my next instrument: a heavy, solid oak paddle. She knows it well, having endured its savage blows and worn its deep bruises for me many times.

Paddle in hand, I return to her side, my free hand wandering down her lower back to my next target, before dipping a little lower and feeling the moisture between her thighs.

“Gods, I love how masochistic you are, my dear. I’ve just gotten started and you’re already dripping. Let’s see if I can’t make that sweet pussy of yours drip all the way to the floor…”

Stepping back, I line up the paddle with my target. “Remember to keep still from when I draw back until the swing lands, my love. You don’t want to mess up my artwork, now do you?” She shakes her head nervously. “Good girl.”

I pause a few seconds longer, drawing out the moment, before lifting the paddle and swinging it harshly into the flesh of her ass with a sharp crack. The sound makes her flinch, and a moment later I hear her cry out loudly as the pain registers. A deeper red mark is already forming where the paddle landed.

“Mmmm. You look so good wearing my marks, love. Back in position now, I’m far from finished with this paddle…”

You shift, arching your back, hands gripping the ropes, and extending your ass towards me. I choose my target, close to the same spot, but offset by an inch or two. “Keep still now, my pretty canvas. I’m going to turn you into a masterpiece of bruises.”
