"No, ma'am"

Shonda looks a bit disappointed, but sits back. She says, "all right, boy, if you're not comfortable with it I'll stop".

You say, "I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm just not ready for it, yet". Shonda waves her hand, smiling at you.

"No honey, I'm not pissed and you didn't do anything wrong. Wrong would have been saying 'yes' and not being comfortable with it, or me trying to **** the issue. Consent's important in this thing we do, and knowing when and how to say 'no' is just important as knowing when to say 'yes'."

Shonda stands up, and pulls the drain on the plug. She reaches for a towel, drying herself off, and hands you one. "Let's go do something you'll be more comfortable with, instead". Once you've dried, she clasps her leash to your collar, and leads you through the house to her dungeon.

Shonda wastes no time cuffing you to a St. Andrew's cross, facing towards it and away from her. She says, "I'm gonna give you a toy demonstration, and if it gets to be too much, you need to say to stop".

First, she shows you the flogger, and its full range of uses all the way from tickling and teasing, to light swats, to rapid fire swats, then finally hard slaps. It feels nice until it doesn't, and it delivers lightly painful stinging sensations all the way to hard thudding sensations. After, she rubs and caresses your butt and thighs to soothe the pain and relax your skin.

Then, the crop, all the way from using it to lightly caress your skin, to light swats with the leather tip, all the way to harder swats with the shaft as if she was caning you. The feeling of the crop is all stinging and it can be quite painful, and by the time she's done with it you're nostalgic for the lighter tease of the flogger. Again, she rubs and caresses you down to soothe and relax you.

After this she gives you some spanks with her bare hand, showing you the range of sensations she can provide with it, all the way to stingy swats with the flat of her hand, to powerful, thudding, loud pops with a slightly-cupped hand. The sensation of bare skin against your own, the give of her hand, and the exact control she has over how she hits you makes spanking much more versatile and pleasurable than you expected it to be. And again, another round of rubs, pats, and caresses to soothe and calm.

By this point, you can smell a slight tinge of sweat and pussy in the air from her sadistic exertions, which excites and encourages you slightly as you stand against the cross, bound.

Last, she gives you a few swats with the paddle, which by this time all hurt thanks to being employed by your already well-abused butt and thighs. These make you yelp and whimper more than any other, triggering Shonda to chuckle and continue paddling with even greater relish. Finally she's satisfied with her work, and steps back, slightly sweaty and happy. She spends some time talking to you, getting your input and thoughts on each toy, while pressing her warm, sticky body against your back, hugging you from behind and caressing your chest.

Satisfied with your answers, she reaches down and fondles your caged genitals a bit, feeling the oozing precum that coats the cage and your balls, finding your cock still struggling to break free of its constraints. She wipes her hand on your belly, steps back, and uncuffs you from the cross. She orders you to stretch and walk around the dungeon a little to keep your muscles loose, then she refastens her leash to your collar and leads you upstairs for dinner.
