Chapter 5
Mr. Howard rested, till luncheon time and sent Miss Burke to lie down also.
Both of them dosed till the meal was served and as soon as it was over and the long afternoon began, as it was still raining Mr. Howard felt inclined for a renewal of Miss Burke's subjection to serious punishment. He revolved in his mind all possible forms of chastisement and the most indecent methods of humiliating the girl.
Presently he said to her: "Miss Burke I intend to use you this afternoon for my pleasure to pass the time as it is raining, and I mean to subject you to the utmost humiliation I can devise as well as to inflict upon your pretty person some elegant and indecent flagellations fetch me from the top drawer the little riding whip and the longest birch you will find there and lay them by my side near the table."
"I am sure; you wont be cruel to me any more since you kissed me and were kind to .me this morning," she said gently as she went to the drawer and brought the two instruments and laid them by his side.
"My dear girl," he answered, "I own I am quite fond of you and in a certain sense I am full of compassion for you at having to undergo these whippings, I have given you and intend to give you, but the more I like you the more I love to chastise you, and the sensual delight I shall derive from whipping you severely will be immensely enhanced by my having had you and loved you this morning!"
To whip a stranger is not half exciting as to whip a girl one knows well and is really fond of. Now you must slowly strip to your chemise and drawers and then kneel here before me, and I advise you to do your utmost to rouse my passions by shoving yourself to me as indecently as you can."
The poor girl slowly obeyed, undressing herself before her master with many blushes but abject humility and then kneeling humbly before him in her semi naked condition.
"It is no use now refusing any order, I give you particularly since you voluntarily without any straps or coercions did with me such things this morning, so now before I whip you, you must do your best .to excite me with your little soft fingers, come! no hesitations," and he took the whip in his hand and gave her a light flick on the naked shoulder. "Oh, don't whip me! I will do anything!" she cried and began to undo his clothes and with nimble hands press and stroke him most daintily.
Mr. Howard lay back in his chair enjoying her dexterous titillations, which unfortunately made him long to inflict more humiliations upon her.
Taking her head between his hands he pressed her face down.
"Do it immediately, and as if you liked it!" he commanded.
Poor Miss Burke still hoped if she were sufficiently obedient, to escape the whip, which in her naked condition made her quake with apprehension, so she made no resistance and was soon employing lips as well as hands to excite her master as he lay enjoying himself.
Mr. Howard remained silent for quite a quarter of an hour while the girl continued her delicious provocations.
At last he sat up and said: "Do you feel more pain when I whip your bosoms or between your legs?"
"Oh dear! Sir, I don't know," said the poor girl.
Mr. Howard rose and ordered the girl to lie on her back on the broad divan. At intervals all round it the divan was furnished with iron rings fastened into its sides close to the floor.
Mr. Howard proceeded to fasten the girl's wrists above her head right and left to the top corners of the divan, then he went to the other end and strapped her ankles wide apart making her thighs form a right angle next to ensure perfect rigidity of the girl's body and legs, he added straps round the girl's legs just delow the knees which he drew up tight to rings opposite her waist on each side.
The girl was thus spread out on her back like a star-fish at her fullest stretch, arms and legs pulled wide.
Her bosoms were by this method of fastening thrust firmly up and out and protruded under the chemise most seductively Mr. Howard took a chair and sitting down comfortably beside his helpless victim pricked her here and there with a hat pin to see whether the straps held her too tight for any effective struggling.
The girl, in frantic terror, strained at her bonds with all her might, but although she bounded up and down raising her waist and loins off the divan in her contortions, the thighs remained perfectly distended and the arms and bust also.
Satisfied at last after various applications of the pin that the straps were efficacious, he unbuttoned the shoulder fastenings of the girl's chemise and with much feeling and rude moldings of the full breasts he gradually uncovered the lovely contours and exposed the panting girl naked down to the waist.
When satisfied with sight and touch of the exposed beauties under his hands and gaze he proceeded to untie her drawers and draw then gradually down exposing everything stark naked, when they would go no further down owing to the wide straddle of the girl's thighs, he cut them apart and gathered each piece tightly round the knees.
"I have cut your drawers in two Miss Burke," he remarked, "for fear they should interfere with the chastisement of your naked legs and body."
"Oh? I wish I could have died before I was treated in this awful manner," murmured the girl in a gasping voice.
"On the contrary," said he, passing his hand here and there over the helpless nakedness, "hitherto your life has been quite wasted and it is now for the first time being put to a proper use, could anything be more absurd than keeping so beautiful a figure as yours perpetually hidden away-your lovely flesh and seductive limbs are now for the first time being put to the proper use nature intended them for, namely the sensual pleasure of one of the opposite sex." With these word he took up a very thin and light riding whip and began giving the girl playful little flicks with it here and there all about over her white body and legs just hard enough to make her jump and wriggle and pull at her bonds, she panted and fluttered all over
no and begged him not to whip her so hard, but of course he paid no regard to her entreaties and continued dexterously whisking the little whip all about over the quivering girl walking slowly round the divan in order to visit every part of her naked skin with the vicious little cuts which grew gradually more and more severe.
At last when the poor girl was weeping bitterly with the pain he inflicted upon her he said: "It is now time to test the relative sensitiveness of your tenderest parts and with different implements; you will probably be too excited to report carefully during this trial but you can tell me afterwards where you felt the cuts most excruciatingly."
With that he stood over the bound down beauty and laid the whip between her wide stretched thighs patting the spot with it.
With frantic efforts the girl strove to close her legs but of course in vain, he watched her impotent efforts while he continued to pat her with the whip just hard enough to encourage her struggles. The whole situation roused his sensuality to its utmost extent, he gloated over the abandoned attitude of the girl, he watched her quivering muscles he listened to her sobs and cries with delight and at last lifted the whip over his head and slashed it relentlessly well in between her legs with a frightful cut.
The girl gave a shriek and banged her loins up and down, but the straps held her firmly in position. Sitting down, Mr. Howard laid the whip across her two plump breasts, which the stretch of her arms thrust upwards in the most tempting manner. He began to pat them as he had patted her below just hard enough to make the girl twist and writhe and dance her bosoms about. At last he raised the whip and swept it down with a rush across the lovely white heaps.
A perfectly delirious yell followed this fearful stroke and the girl exerting all her force managed to wriggle her body a little sideways.
Mr. Howard put down the whip and disregarding her cries and howls forcibly tightened up the straps that held her wide spread wrists dragging her to the utmost stretch of her arms, heal so pulled up the knees traps another hole.
"Your struggles are most rebellious and impertinent," said he, "and your screams quite useless, you will be whipped very severely in this tempting attitude till I am tired."
And he slashed the whip again across both of her protruding breasts with fearful swiftness.
The unhappy victim dashed her body up and down off the divan in a paroxysm of agony and emitted choking sobs, but without a moments delay Mr, Howard took careful aim and swiped the awful whip up between her legs with all his might. His sensuality had for the moment entirely got the mastery of him and he gave his lust full sway regardless of all consequences.
The lovely naked girl bound down on her back in utter helplessness, with limbs stretched apart to their utmost limit made him quite deaf to her cries for mercy and he gave a full vent to the voluptuous sensations his chastisement of her afforded him.
Her yells and bounds only excited him to strike harder and harder, her helpless subjection to the fearful whipping over her most tender and private parts brought him to the highest pitch of sexual pleasure and he determined to go on punishing the girl as long as the retained consciousness.
Without hurry he waited a little to allow her to recover somewhat from these terrible cuts, filling up the time with applications of a switch of nettles all about her naked body and limbs which kept her twitching and writhing.
He whisked the nettles this way and that between her elastic breasts which oscillated under the strokes in the most tempting manner, then be flicked the insides of her full thighs and slashed the nettles again and again up between them. At last he seized a long slim birch and prepared for a final relentless flogging.
This way and that he brought the terrible birch across her bounding bosoms upwards, downwards, and across from side to side torturing every inch of the rebounding surfaces.
The girl once more shrieked and dragged in vain at her bonds while Mr. Howard transferred the strokes to the inviting gap between her wide held thighs. At last kneeling over her face and stooping till his own face was between her legs, he ordered her to receive him in her lovely mouth, while with the hat pin placed with its point against her most sensitive spot between her thighs he pressed it into her soft and quivering person to enforce obedience and extract from her the utmost provocation of his lust that her lips could afford him.
In this combination of sexual excitement Mr. Howard after about five minutes reached the final and exquisite consummation.
