As Nathan’s eyes fixed on the redwood ruler clutched in Lucinda’s hand, a ripple of tension coursed through him.


    “Darling, how do you want to punish me?”


    Lucinda gently ced the ruler’s tip against his chin, her words tinged with mischief.


    “Nate, you’ve asked for punishment, and I can’t say no.


    That means I have to take on the role of the disciplinarian.


    ”


    Nathan was momentarily speechless, his thoughts racing.


    Undeterred, Lucinda pressed on, her gaze unwavering.


    “How do you suggest I should punish you?”


    Without hesitation, Nathan responded candidly, “Every fiber of my being is yours tomand.


    Punish me as you see fit.


    ”


    “Really?” Lucinda arched her eyebrow mischievously.


    She held the ruler and slowly moved it down, gently tapping the area between Nathan’s legs.


    “Can this spot get punished too?”This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    With a hint of trepidation, Nathan’s entire being trembled, his expression fraught with apprehension.


    “Absolutely not.


    That realm is intertwined with our eternal happiness.


    It is not for punishment but for cherishing.


    ”


    Lucinda asked, “You messed up! But now you want some cherishing? In your dreams!”


    With a tender smile, Nathan leaned in, cing a gentle ki*s on her cheek.


    “I’m sorry.


    The choice is yours.


    ”


    Lucinda’s ire began to dissipate.


    Even though Lucinda was upset that Nathan hadn’t been honest about a girl pursuing him, she still trusted that he wouldn’t do anything wrong behind her back.


    She trusted his love for her, but that didn’t mean she was going to let Nathan off the hook easily tonight.


    In a rtionship, honesty is key.


    She felt it was important to teach him this Lesson.


    With this in mind, Lucinda pressed the button of Nathan’s shirt with a serious expression.


    “Like always, strip down.


    ”


    Nathan didn’t hesitate as he removed his shirt.


    His wless physique and defined abs were revealed.


    His tan hadn’t faded, adding to his allure.


    Noticing he hadn’t proceeded, Lucinda gestured toward the belt around his waist and remarked, “Forgot this again? Need a hand?”


    With no other option, Nathan proceeded to remove the rest of his clothes.


    Once done, he returned to his kneeling position.


    Lucinda pointed at his left arm and said, “Stretch out your hand.


    ”


    Nathan followed her instructions, stretching out his left palm and offering it to her.


    With a furious expression, Lucinda waved her arm and lifted the ruler.
