She wanted to be sure it was styled exactly right before putting in the turtle shell comb or the adornment wouldn\u2019t be shown to its best advantage. The way the ornament glistened in her locks earlier as she\u2019d played with it made her smile. Adam told her he saw it in a shop window and immediately thought of the way it would glisten in her golden curls. He wasn\u2019t wrong.<\/p>\n<p>A heavy sigh drew her attention to the man in question, and Alta beamed at Adam as he leaned against the doorway. His hands tucked into his armpits, her husband of just a few months looked handsome in his evening clothes. Handsome, and exasperated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow are you not ready yet?\u201d Adam questioned with a shake of his head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing a man, you have not noticed how fiddly women\u2019s clothing is. I need someone to help me finish dressing. I can\u2019t reach all these buttons,\u201d Alta explained, turning her back towards him briefly. \u201cCome help me, will you? And be gentle with the buttons, they\u2019re very delicate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam smirked slightly as he walked towards her. \u201cAre you accusing me of something, wife?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I certainly wasn\u2019t the one who tore three buttons off my wedding gown in their haste to remove it, was I?\u201d she challenged.<\/p>\n<p>He favored her with a dimpled grin. \u201cGuilty as charged. Though I maintain you\u2019re equally at fault. Were there no dresses with less buttons available? And you could have made it easier for me by being ugly.\u201d Carefully, Adam began the tedious task of buttoning her gown. He\u2019d rather be <em>un<\/em>buttoning it and might consider doing so if they didn\u2019t have reservations for dinner and tickets for the ballet.<\/p>\n<p>Alta laughed, smiling at her reflection in the mirror. Marriage agreed with her; with them both. \u201cI did it just to annoy you,\u201d she whispered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI suspected as much.\u201d Adam kissed the back of her neck tenderly. \u201cYou\u2019re buttoned. Our hackney is already waiting,\u201d he added. \u201cYou ought to be ready by now. No one infuriates me like you do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow was I the one who surprised me with this pretty hair comb today?\u201d Alta queried. \u201cNo; that was you. And now you complain as I try to show it to its best advantage. Men are never happy. But since you\u2019re being such a helpful boy, will you put my necklace on me, too?\u201d She looked over her shoulder, batting her eyelashes coquettishly.<\/p>\n<p>Adam favored her with a stern look. \u201cIn five minutes, you will either walk to the hackney on your own power or I\u2019ll carry you out and dump you in it, regardless of what state you may be in,\u201d he threatened. Adam punctuated his words with a playful swat to her bottom before turning to get the necklace she\u2019d indicated. As he picked it up from her dressing table something smacked <em>his<\/em> bottom, causing Adam to jump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOw!\u201d Adam complained, rubbing the stinging spot. He looked over at Alta with a scowl, only to find her smirking. \u201cI was playful! That hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta only smiled, holding her hairbrush. \u201cSooner or later, everyone sits down to a banquet of consequences, darling,\u201d she teased.<\/p>\n<p>Muttering about incorrigible brats under his breath, Adam did the clasp of her necklace and turned to leave the room. \u201cFive minutes. I meant what I said,\u201d he warned firmly.<\/p>\n<p>Alta\u2019s sing-song voice followed him out of the room, \u201cPromises, promises.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He smiled to himself, already counting the minutes, half-hoping Alta wouldn\u2019t make the deadline. Watching the clock with anticipation, the minutes slowly ticked away.<\/p>\n<p>*****<\/p>\n<p>Alta sat on their bed, playing with her shoe hook when Adam threw open the bedroom door.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI warned you.\u201d Adam\u2019s tone was serious, his look menacing as he approached her, but his eyes were full of mischief.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdam, do stop,\u201d Alta responded, rolling her eyes. \u201cI just need\u2014&#8221; She let out a yelp as Adam scooped her off the bed and began carrying her out the door.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said whatever state you were in,\u201d he reminded her. \u201cWhatever you don\u2019t have, you won\u2019t need it for the night.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBe careful on the stairs!\u201d Alta shouted, clinging tightly to him. \u201cYou\u2019re a madman, you know that?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe you shouldn\u2019t push me, woman.\u201d Adam stopped long enough to kiss her before continuing downstairs, every step confident and sure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy wrap! Adam, at least get my wrap!\u201d Alta laughed as he shifted to throw her over his shoulder and grabbed the shawl with one hand. \u201cYou\u2019re not really going to take me outside like this? Adam, put me down!\u201d She tried desperately to make her words stern, but giggles defused the effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, yes, I am,\u201d Adam promised, his voice all too cheery. With his wife hanging over his shoulder, each of them dressed to the nines, he exited the house and took the time to lock the door behind them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat will the neighbors think?\u201d Alta hissed. She swatted at Adam as he took his time locking the door.<\/p>\n<p>Adam shrugged one shoulder. \u201cWho knows? Who cares? You brought this on yourself, Mrs. Cartwright. Off we go.\u201d Grinning widely, he carried her to the hackney and unceremoniously dropped her inside of it, then threw her shawl in after her. Standing outside the conveyance, hands on his hips, Adam watched as Alta laughed so hard she could barely get up and onto the seat. Once Alta righted herself, he climbed in to sit beside her.<\/p>\n<p>After catching her breath, Alta put her arms around Adam. \u201cCan I tell you a secret?\u201d she whispered.<\/p>\n<p>Adam hummed a response as he pulled her close, kissing her cheek.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had four minutes to spare.\u201d Her eyes sparkled with impish delight. \u201cI just wanted to see if you\u2019d really do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For a moment, Adam could only stare at her. Then, he laughed loudly as the cab continued down the block. When he got himself under control, he leaned close to Alta\u2019s ear. \u201cLet me tell you a secret,\u201d he murmured. \u201cYou have a banquet of consequences coming when we get home that you\u2019ll be standing up for. And we\u2019ll see just how much you like that hairbrush of yours by the time it\u2019s over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rather than reply heatedly, Alta smiled and whispered, \u201cPromise?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam simply winked.<\/p>\n<p>********<\/p>\n<p>Dinner was the usual affair; Alta teased him mercilessly as Adam tried to eat his meal in peace. The same thing happened every time, and she\u2019d been that way since he started courting her. When it wasn\u2019t verbally sparring, it was light kicks to his shins for a variety of reasons or even stealing bites of his meal. Alta was never subtle about it either; she used her fork to help herself to an oversized morsel in front of his face, smirking while doing so.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight, Adam had the pleasure of being treated to all three of her antics. He played the put upon husband well, but in truth enjoyed the routine. \u201cKeep digging that hole, little girl,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s Mrs. Cartwright to you,\u201d Alta shot back sassily. She moved to take a forkful of his dessert, smirking when Adam allowed it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou need a lesson in manners. Next time you try that, I\u2019m going to smack your hand.\u201d A smile played on his lips.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, when you put it like that\u2026\u201d Alta reached for his dish with both hands, giggling at the startled look on Adam\u2019s face.<\/p>\n<p>Despite catching him off guard, Adam managed to keep hold of his plate. \u201cI don\u2019t know why I bother taking you anywhere nice.\u201d He reached for Alta\u2019s hand but didn\u2019t follow through with the promised smack. Instead, he drew it to his lips and kissed her palm. \u201cI do love you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know,\u201d Alta winked. \u201cI love you, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>*****<\/p>\n<p>The couple were ensconced in a hackney on the way home, Adam\u2019s arm around his wife as she snuggled up to his side. \u201cEnjoy tonight?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta nodded. \u201cI\u2019m so drawn to the ballet. The fluidity of movement, the way dance tells the story along with music. It\u2019s like magic. I\u2019ve always loved it. Thank you for taking me.\u201d She kissed him softly.<\/p>\n<p>Her response made Adam smile tenderly. \u201cYou\u2019re welcome. I feel lucky to have a wife that enjoys culture as much as I do. Something told me that first night I saw you that we\u2019d share many interests.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou mean my intellect attracted you, rather than my great beauty?\u201d Adam could hear the raised eyebrow in Alta\u2019s tone, rather than see it. \u201cI do believe I should feel insulted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI appreciate both in great measure,\u201d Adam countered. \u201cThough I do wonder what effect my spoiling has on you. Dinners in fine places, nights at the ballet, the gifts I bring you.\u201d He made a <em>tsk<\/em> sound.<\/p>\n<p>Alta turned her head to look at him, a wide grin on her face. \u201cI\u2019m perfect and you know it,\u201d she asserted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPerfect for me? Without a doubt,\u201d Adam conceded. \u201cPerfectly behaved?\u201d An eyebrow quirked. \u201cFar from it. I seem to remember promising you consequences when we got home. Nearly there.\u201d He smiled wryly.<\/p>\n<p>Alta\u2019s pupils dilated and a growing sense of anticipation built up inside her. They playfully smacked one another frequently, and he often threatened to spank her, but it had always been in jest. Tonight, something in his look told her he meant to follow through. \u201cAre you going to carry me into the house over your shoulder again?\u201d she wondered, rubbing her hand on his thigh.<\/p>\n<p>Adam laughed softly, flashing an appreciative grin. \u201cDo you want me to?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A slight flush crept up her face. \u201cWill anyone see?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, now you\u2019re concerned about your reputation?\u201d Adam could only shake his head. \u201cEarlier you wanted to test me and didn\u2019t spare a thought for it. We might give the neighbors another show,\u201d he shrugged.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can blame you for earlier. You and your uncouth Western ways, not knowing how to treat a lady,\u201d Alta teased. \u201cIf I allow you to do it, and people see my cooperation\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He nodded, understanding her reluctance now. \u201cAfter the door\u2019s closed then,\u201d Adam decided with a wink.<\/p>\n<p>****************<\/p>\n<p>Alta shivered while hanging up her wrap. It wasn\u2019t a chill, but the thrill of anticipation. She waited restlessly for him to place his hat on its peg and lit some lamps, ensuring they weren\u2019t wandering around in the dark. He even went upstairs and lit one in their bedroom before returning to where Alta grew increasingly impatient, tapping her foot on the floor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA bit eager, are we?\u201d he teased.<\/p>\n<p>Alta promptly stuck her tongue out at Adam.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019re most definitely overdue for a spanking.\u201d He looked into Alta\u2019s eyes, searching for unspoken agreement. When he saw it there, Adam lifted her up and carefully tossed her over his shoulder. \u201cComfy?\u201d A swat to her behind accentuated the question.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOw!\u201d Alta whined plaintively.<\/p>\n<p>Adam rolled his eyes. \u201cPlease. With all the layers of fabric between my hand and your backside, I\u2019d be surprised if you felt a thing.\u201d He started for the stairs, emboldened by Alta\u2019s infectious giggles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019d be disappointed if I didn\u2019t put up a fuss. Admit it,\u201d she rebutted. Though he only hummed in response, Alta could hear his smile.<\/p>\n<p>When they entered their bedroom, Adam gently set Alta down on her feet. \u201cYou can take care of your shoes and let your hair down. I\u2019ll take handle everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His authoritative tone made her knees weak. Alta quickly sat on the bed to unhook her shoes, but her attention was on Adam. She watched him take off his jacket and toss it carelessly over a chair, then undo his cufflinks.<\/p>\n<p>Her rapt attention didn\u2019t go unnoticed. Adam smiled as she made a careful study of his movements. Her scrutiny only increased when he began rolling up his sleeves. Then it was his turn to watch as Alta gently removed the turtle shell comb and various pins from her hair. Each section she released fell in a wave of gold down to her shoulders until all her tresses were free.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLovely,\u201d he murmured. \u201cStand up and turn around.\u201d When Alta had her back towards him, Adam reached for the buttons on her gown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t you\u2014&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m the one giving directions right now,\u201d Adam chided, cutting her off. He wasn\u2019t surprised when Alta stomped her foot irritably, though he couldn\u2019t be sure if it was done playfully or sincerely. \u201cLook at that, yet another bad habit we need to address,\u201d he teased. \u201cIf you\u2019re worried that I\u2019ll harm your dress or loosen one of these multitudes of infernal buttons\u2026\u201d His annoyance with the number of them crept into his tone. \u201cI\u2019ll be careful. Meanwhile, you focus on curbing that temper of yours and doing a better job of listening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta could hear the smirk in his voice as he spoke. \u201cOr I could really show you some temper and slap your face the first chance I get.\u201d She didn\u2019t mean a word of it, of course.<\/p>\n<p>Adam chuckled. \u201cBrave words for someone about to have her bare bottom across my knee.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have to get my clothing off first,\u201d Alta pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>He inclined his head, though she couldn\u2019t see it. \u201cTouch\u00e9.\u201d Adam kissed the curve of her neck, smiling against her skin as Alta relaxed into his touch. Further kisses brushed against her exposed shoulder. Her skin was soft and creamy, warm beneath his caress. Adam heard her breath catch and abruptly stopped. It wouldn\u2019t do to rush things.<\/p>\n<p>Removing her clothing was, in fact, a battle of wills: his patience versus the multiple layers. Adam refused to ask for her assistance or be goaded into hurrying, even if he might prefer to simply tear each item off. Alta had barely forgiven him for the loss of a few on her wedding gown; she was unlikely to appreciate the destruction of an entire ensemble, no matter what the result was. Though Adam watched her dress and undress daily, it somehow took him by surprise how long and involved the process was when he wanted to remove her garments for activities best done without them.<\/p>\n<p>After assisting Alta out of the dress and hanging it in the closet, Adam growled in frustration when confronted with more delicate fastenings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProblems?\u201d He could hear the taunting in her voice.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t understand how you\u2019re able to move around with such grace and poise while loaded down with so much fabric. And what moron invented these stupid eye and hook closures?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta sighed. \u201cIt\u2019s as much a trial for us as you imagine it to be. Practice is what makes it look easy. Knowing you\u2019re looking with appreciation makes it less of a burden.\u201d She glanced over her shoulder, grinning at the look of determination on his face. \u201cI could\u2026\u201d Alta reached for the closures to hurry things along.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo.\u201d Adam mildly pushed her hands away, never removing his eyes from the task before him. \u201cStop interfering, young lady.\u201d Despite the irritation, Adam was careful in his efforts to unhook each fastening of her petticoat.<\/p>\n<p>She scrunched up her nose and made a face at him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI saw that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta bristled, making an indignant noise. \u201cDid not!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid too.\u201d Unlike the dress, meticulously hung, the petticoat was tossed in the direction of the closet. Alta\u2019s bustle was next and that, at least, only tied around her waist. It, too, got thrown haphazardly to the side. \u201cAnd more hook and eye closures,\u201d Adam muttered. \u201cWho designed these petticoats?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta tried and failed to stifle her giggles as Adam complained to himself with each closure he undid. He acted the same each time he undressed her, as though the garments were made just to thwart his specific efforts to make love to her.<\/p>\n<p>The final petticoat discarded, Adam began unlacing her corset. Impatience gone, he took his time undoing the laces. \u201cI always feel as if I\u2019m unwrapping you like a present when I do this,\u201d he confessed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe best present of all, I should hope,\u201d Alta mused.<\/p>\n<p>Adam hummed his agreement and kissed her back, just above the neckline of her chemise. At last, the corset was undone and it, too, was pitched across the room. He gently spun her around, so they were face-to-face and openly admired his wife as she stood in just her chemise and drawers, hair spilling around her shoulders. Adam put a finger under Alta\u2019s chin and tipped her head back slightly before capturing her lips with his own. The kiss was gentle at first, then slowly became more demanding. An arm went around her waist, pulling her tightly against him.<\/p>\n<p>Alta broke the contact between them first, placing her palms flat against his chest and gently pushing him back. Eyes fixed on his, Alta inquired, \u201cWhat about those consequences you promised me?\u201d Her voice was soft, yet filled with eagerness, and there was an intensity in her eyes. What had begun as playful banter was something Alta clearly wished to dabble in, at the very least.<\/p>\n<p>Though her obvious excitement dispelled any doubt Adam had about putting his wife over his knee, he thought briefly about ways to ensure her welfare and consent. She wasn\u2019t a child, after all; this was meant to be pleasurable for each of them. \u201cIf you wish to stop, say my name,\u201d Adam instructed. \u201cMy full name, that is. Anything else I\u2019ll take as\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPlayacting?\u201d Alta supplied, sounding gleeful.<\/p>\n<p>Adam nodded. \u201cYou just be careful with the way you play, young lady,\u201d he warned. Though his words were stern, he gave her a dimpled smile. \u201cYour backside will be in jeopardy, so choose your antics judiciously.\u201d He patted his right knee and gave her an expectant look. An eyebrow quirked when Alta didn\u2019t move.<\/p>\n<p>Alta\u2019s eyes narrowed as she scrutinized him. \u201cHow often have you done this?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOften enough,\u201d Adam admitted, giving her a wry smile. \u201cNot with any intimate partners, if that\u2019s what you\u2019re getting around to. And I\u2019ve received more than I care to remember.\u201d He looked pained at even the recollection of spankings past, but that look became a glower as Alta giggled. Adam lightly swatted the side of her leg, earning a pretty pout in return.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure it won\u2019t surprise you that I haven\u2019t either. It\u2019s not just any man I\u2019d let make such threats and carry them out, after all,\u201d she asserted. \u201cI wasn\u2019t a stranger to it as a child though.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam pursed his lips while giving her an appraising look. \u201cNo.\u201d He shook his head. \u201cI don\u2019t think it took.\u201d The stomp and outraged noise Alta made in response drew a devious smile from him. \u201cMay I submit exhibit A?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alta scrunched up her nose and stomped once more. \u201cI\u2019m the lawyer!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He stood to his full height and looked down at her, his hazel eyes flashing. Without a word, Adam took her by the wrist, sat down on the bed, and pulled Alta across his knees. The movement was quick enough to catch her off guard but carefully controlled so that she wasn\u2019t tossed carelessly. Once she was over his lap, Adam put his arm around her waist, drawing her closer, her bottom positioned over his right knee.<\/p>\n<p>Alta wiggled over his lap, enjoying the feel of Adam\u2019s muscular thighs beneath her. As he began rubbing her backside through the thin clothing that separated her bare skin from his hand, she stilled. Her body hummed at the touch, aching for more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the chemise, or under the chemise? That is the question,\u201d Adam intoned in his best Shakespearean voice.<\/p>\n<p>She let out a loud groan and slapped his leg. Any verbal complaint Alta intended to lodge was cut off by a smack across the center of her cheeks that caught her off guard. She realized the irony of that, given her current position, and made a face at the floor. It wasn\u2019t hard, but the newness of it made the swat more impactful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo chemise then.\u201d Adam lifted the garment up and laid it on her back. He chuckled as Alta wiggled and squirmed. \u201cAren\u2019t you overdoing it a bit, darling? I haven\u2019t even started yet. I\u2019ll give you plenty of reason to writhe around,\u201d he promised. Despite the implication of his words, the spanking began with light, teasing pats over her drawers. Adam wanted Alta to enjoy this, and he had a feeling she\u2019d want to see how far they could go.<\/p>\n<p>The light pats were almost disappointing, Alta thought to herself. She knew how strong he was, and, given her love of a good challenge, Alta expected Adam to put her through her paces Not that it didn\u2019t feel nice. But that was all; nice. He barely raised a sting or warmth on her skin. Alta felt sure she could steer him in a different direction, away from his careful deference and care towards her and putting some effort into it.<\/p>\n<p>Feigning a wide, loud yawn, Alta began tapping her toe on the floor impatiently. \u201cDearest, either please start or let me up. I\u2019m growing bored.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam\u2019s eyebrow quirked. \u201cAre you now?\u201d He raised his hand higher this time, bringing it down smartly on her right cheek. The startled yelp Alta gave in response made him chuckle. \u201cDo I have your attention now?\u201d Adam grinned as he heard Alta muttering. \u201cSounds like backtalk to me.\u201d A similarly sharp swat fell on her left cheek. \u201cA \u2018yes sir\u2019 or \u2018no sir\u2019 would suffice.\u201d He could well imagine the resentful look on her face, even if he couldn\u2019t see it.<\/p>\n<p>Several further swats fell, his hand moving back and forth between her cheeks as Alta stubbornly refused to answer him. \u201cWell? Still bored?\u201d Adam paused, rubbing her bottom to soothe some of the sting.<\/p>\n<p>The smacks hurt, but not unpleasantly so. In fact, <em>hurt<\/em> wasn\u2019t quite the right word for it. They stung a bit, spreading warmth across her skin that seemed to go directly to Alta\u2019s core. Rather than complain, she was humming softly in appreciation of the sensations. Well, until Adam goaded her that was. That was one of the facets of their relationship she enjoyed most, their verbal sparring that often led to the bedroom now that they were married.<\/p>\n<p>Never one to do as she was told simply because it was expected of her, Alta looked over her shoulder and gave Adam an impish grin. \u201cI\u2019m sorry dear, were you saying something?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cObviously nothing of importance to you,\u201d Adam responded wryly. \u201cNow that you <em>are<\/em> listening, raise your hips for me. Your drawers are coming down so I can see what kind of progress we\u2019re making. And because I enjoy looking at your naked behind.\u201d Adam gave her a wink.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you put it like that\u2026\u201d Alta smiled and lifted her hips as requested. She could feel Adam\u2019s fingers at the small of her back as he untied the garment and slowly tugged it off her hips. He pulled the material down further and further until it was gone completely, pooling on the floor. Alta squealed as he began tickling the backs of her knees. \u201cPlay fair!\u201d she demanded, trying to sound stern through her laughter. \u201cI can\u2019t retaliate from here!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is rather the point.\u201d Mere seconds later, chuckles were replaced by a heartfelt \u201c<em>Ow!<\/em> Did you seriously just bite me?!\u201d Adam demanded, outraged. He removed the hand from her waist and began rubbing his leg.<\/p>\n<p>Alta cringed a bit. Perhaps that was slightly too much. \u201cIt was just a tiny bite. A teensy weensy insignificant little bite.\u201d Looking over her shoulder she illustrated just how little, using her thumb and index figure to demonstrate.<\/p>\n<p>He shook his head, giving her an exasperated look. \u201cHere\u2019s a sentence I never thought I\u2019d have to say to my wife: there\u2019s no biting when you\u2019re over my knee. If you want a real spanking, I\u2019d rather you just ask. But then I didn\u2019t marry a simple, agreeable woman, did I?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, you did not,\u201d she smiled impishly. \u201cI\u2019m much more engaging and entertaining.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam nodded in agreement. \u201cA lot more trouble, too.\u201d He rubbed his hand across her bare backside. \u201cYou\u2019re hardly even pink,\u201d he murmured. \u201cNow I have to try and think of what else I need to forbid before you decide to try it.\u201d Adam delivered a sharp swat to each of her sit spots, making Alta squirm in response.<\/p>\n<p>Alta pouted and put her hand back to rub away the sting. \u201cNow where\u2019s the fun in forbidding things?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He pushed her hand away with a dramatic sigh. \u201cToo hard?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo. I merely enjoy annoying you.\u201d She paused then asked, \u201cDoes it look nice?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Adam laughed. \u201cYou never cease to amaze me. You have a very shapely bottom, you vain little minx. The pink is\u2026 lovely,\u201d he decided. \u201cDid you want to stand up and look in the mirror?\u201d There was a hint of amusement in his voice.<\/p>\n<p>When she declined, Adam raised his hand and resumed the spanking. The swats fell quicker now and with more force behind them. Initially, each left a handprint behind but soon the color blended into a more uniform pink as Alta squirmed over his knees. As abruptly as the volley of spanks started, it ceased, for the moment at least. Adam\u2019s hand dipped between her thighs for a moment. A smile spread across his face at the sounds Alta made in response to his touch. He certainly wasn\u2019t unaffected by her wiggling and the sight of her increasingly pink backside and Adam knew she felt his arousal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t stop,\u201d Alta gasped. \u201cKeep going, please.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHmm. I\u2019m afraid you\u2019ll have to be more specific. Which part are you asking me to continue? This\u2026\u201d He teased her sex with his fingers. \u201cOr this?\u201d Adam swatted her backside lightly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat.\u201d As the spanking resumed, Alta unconsciously arched her back, raising her bottom to meet his hand. How he managed to make each swat sting deliciously in a way that went straight to her core without causing her undue pain, Alta had no idea. What she did know was that this would not be the last time they did this!<\/p>\n<p>Adam\u2019s hand moved back and forth between her cheeks, letting repetition rather than strength change the color of her skin from pink to red. Alta\u2019s moans of pleasure and the way her body responded stirred his own arousal. With that in mind, he devoted a bit of attention to the undercurve of her bottom, bringing color to that sensitive area, before rubbing her reddened globes. He chuckled at the whine Alta gave when he stopped. \u201cI don\u2019t think either of us realized how much we\u2019d enjoy this,\u201d Adam confessed. \u201cI\u2019m not sure how much more of your squirming and wriggling I can take. I\u2019m tempted to toss you on the bed and have my way with you, now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She laughed. \u201cWhat about that hairbrush you threatened me with?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNext time,\u201d he promised. Adam delivered a final swat across the center of her cheeks before helping Alta to her feet. Immediately their lips hungrily sought one another as Adam pulled her tightly to him. Before long, Adam was kissing her neck as Alta\u2019s hands went for the buttons on his shirt. A nip to his ear brought a smile to his face.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere you go with that biting again,\u201d he growled playfully. Adam gave her a last, light smack. \u201cNo wonder you insisted on removing the word \u2018obey\u2019 from our vows. You\u2019d have broken it within hours, if not minutes.\u201d The alteration had been made with his full support. He wasn\u2019t Alta\u2019s keeper after all; he was her husband and partner.<\/p>\n<p>Alta laughed softly, her breath tickling his chest. \u201cWhy are you still wearing so many clothes?\u201d she complained. \u201cWhen I want to have my way with you.\u201d She grinned as her words drew a sound of wanting from Adam and together their hands made frenzied efforts to remove them. As soon as he was naked, Alta pushed his shoulders, grinning deviously as Adam fell back onto the bed. \u201cI want you, <em>now<\/em>,\u201d she stated, a hint of dominance in her tone. He made no effort at all to resist.<\/p>\n<p>The End<\/p>\n<p><strong>Author\u2019s note:<\/strong> This story began as a pinecone based on the prompt \u201cEveryone, sooner or later, sits down to a banquet of consequences.\u201d &#8212; Robert Louis Stevenson.
