We examined each other for several days and were proud to still bear the feint evidence of our ordeal more than two weeks later. We still use cane and strap on each other, but we normally take the precaution of having a safety word in reserve. It still puzzles me how, without experiencing it originally, I became so fascinated, to the point of obsession, in corporal punishment. Incidentally, my male partner refuses to gratify these particular whims of mine. Although he thinks I am a bit odd, he accepts my spanking relationship with my friend and knows what we are up to …. the evidence is plain to see!
