Chapter 20 by Johanna

What is the text?

Michael wants to humiliate you

With a slightly shaky hand you pick up your phone and swipe the message to open it. It is from Michael as you knew it would be. It is so like him also to write even a text message as a formal structured letter.

“Dear Jenna,

It pains me to say this but after looking back at how things went between us, I believe it would be fair and also in the best interest for future relationships for the both of us if I punish you.

Initially I wanted to give you a severe spanking in private with just the two of us but I realise punishments must fit one’s weaknesses and situation. Also I saw on your LinkedIn you got a severe paddling today already. Therefore you will instead receive a longer but hand-only (unless extras are required) spanking in the gym where we met followed by a nude work-out. I must warn you others may be involved in your punishment. I also would ask you to invite your friends who use the same gym and have valid membership to be there at the time if they can.

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow at 7PM.

Best wishes,

M.”

You lower your phone after you finish reading. Tomorrow at seven your ex has a worse humiliation planned for you than anything you have gone through already, impressive as that sounds. Granted, it will not be as severe, but you are more than certain that your already sore behind will feel every smack all too well. You consider erasing the last two rules immediately but cannot bring yourself to do it and shut the Rulebook and tuck it onto the little bookshelf by the desk instead. You have already decided to let him have this one and you need to stick by your decisions, even if you did not expect something so public. His icy polite tone (and the part where he says he looks forward to seeing you especially) makes your blood boil with shame and anger but somehow that makes the fear of what is coming even sweeter. You envision yourself naked on the free weights bench and fail to suppress a shudder.

You lift your phone again to give the message another look and suddenly realise what time it is. Diana will be coming any moment.
