Max's birthday is coming soon, and she tries not to be hopeful this year with Caroline. Ever since she was little, tried as she may, she always tried not to hope her mom would eventually remember her birthday, but she did. She tried to be an extra good girl, did all the house chores, listened to her mom's orders. In the end? Nothing. She ended up cleaning her mother's empty bottles. When she reached puberty, she never allowed herself to hope ever since.

She never told anyone her birth date, she didn't want expectations that would surely turn into disappointment. Sometimes if she feels a little better than normal, she makes a small cake for herself in her little apartment; most of the times she went out to get wasted and get laid.

A lot of good things had happened to her already, Max doesn't want to ruin it by wishing for more.

Unbeknownst to her, Caroline obviously knew her birth date as she had done a background check on Max when she first met the brunnette, (just to make sure Max is not involved in any serious crime, a few petty thefts in the past but that was it).

The cupcake shop is fully furnished, it has only opened for a month or so but business is successful. Caroline is not surprised really, with her name and her connection with the rich socialite circle, nothing is impossible. Max, on the other hand, couldn't believe her luck, she has had orders for baby showers and birthday parties for the rich kids in no time.

She had been working really hard on her cupcakes, sometimes she had to take leave from the diner to bake the cupcakes the whole day. Caroline offered to hire some workers and asked Max to quit the diner, but Max refused instantly, she was set on taking the bulk of the work. Now that her dream is actually happening, she doesn't want take a minute to lack off and despite Caroline telling her it's not a rush, she really wants her first paycheck and able to pay the blonde back.

Max's birthday is this Thursday, Caroline is more than determined to whisk Max off her feet to her cabin in the mountain. Max has been working so hard, Caroline feels that she has barely time to breathe. While Caroline really appreciates Max's hardwork, Max often gets so tired they couldn't do much in the bedroom.

"Day off today." Caroline orders Max the moment she enters the cupcake shop, Max raises her head in confusion.

"Caroline? What are you doing here?" Max asks, some batter on her left cheek.

Caroline walks up to her, takes a napkin and wipes away the mess on the cheek.

"I'm here to kidnap you." Caroline crosses her arms, she's had enough. Max blinks in confusion.

"Uhh, Caroline I still have another batch of cupcakes for little Ethan's 5th birthday party tomorrow."

"I don't care. Max you need to take a break, I didn't know when I bought you the cupcake shop, you'd be working like a maniac!" Caroline says sternly as she watches Max's features settle into an unemotional look. Caroline remedies quickly by taking the spatula from the brunnette and holds her hand. "Max, I miss you." she says softly and Max's features melts into a soft smile.

Max sighs and has to admit to herself she had been working too much. "I'm sorry, Caroline. I just want everything to work out."

"I know, kitten. But you hadn't have a day off since the shop opened, you're going to work yourself to the bones and I'm worried about you."

"You're right." Max slumps her shoulders and takes off her apron. " I'll take the day off but I'm waking up early tomorrow to bake the cupcakes."

"No, you're coming with me for rest of the week." Caroline takes her hand and pulls her to her car.

"Caroline what about-" Max started, a bit surprised.

"I handled it, don't worry." Caroline continues, "we're going back home to pack our bags."

"Pack? What are you talking about?" Max stops in front of the car.

"It's a surprise." Caroline says shortly. Max frowns, starting to get a little annoyed.

"Caroline...this is crazy." Max whines. "I can't leave my shop for the rest of the week!"

Now it's time for Caroline to get annoyed, she shot back. "And when are you going to tell me your birthday is this Thursday?"

Max gaps at the blonde, she closes and opens her mouth for a while. "How, how- I mean how do you know that, I never told you."

Caroline replies with crossed arms, "You think I wouldn't know my girlfriend's birthday? Give me some credit."

Max pouts and have mixed feelings, what did she expect? Of course Caroline would know, the blonde graduated top student at Wharton. She's excited for the surprise but leaving her shop for the week is like leaving her baby.

Max feels horribly guilty and as she glances at Caroline's upset face she feels worse. She had been working too much, and worse she had not really fulfilled her duty as a good submissive. And now she was mad at Caroline for wanting to surprise her? She slowly steps forward and reaches for her girlfriend's hand.

"Caroline, I'm really sorry. What can I do for you to forgive me?" She looks up with her puppy eyes.

Caroline looks down at Max with a stern look before letting out a huge sigh, "Max, I just want you back."

"I know I've been a bad girlfriend and a worse sub, I promise I won't be so obsessed with the shop next time." Max tugs at Caroline's hand and after seeing a slight smile tugging at her girlfriend's lip,

Max wraps her arms around the blonde's waist and look up at her. "I will follow you to anywhere you want me too, I'll do anything. Please?"

In the end, Caroline really can't stay mad at Max's sad puppy face, she leans down to plant a kiss on her forehead. "Alright come on let's go."

Max got a feeling that Caroline is still angry at her, she didn't even give her a kiss on the lips. She thinks sadly as she enters the car, she's going to do whatever she can to make it up to her girlfriend.

When they came home and started packing, Caroline still talked to her and helped her with the packing, but there was a strain in her voice. Max tries to stay strong but she felt worse as time went by. In almost 6 months they've been together, Caroline has never treated her coldly or passive aggressively. They never had a huge fight before, and Caroline spoilt and adored her openly.

"We'll leave after lunch, is there anything else you need?" Caroline asks without looking at her as she puts their luggages by the door. Max bits her nails into her skin, damn it, she's stronger than this. She shakes her head silently, but looks at Caroline's like a sad, abandoned puppy.

"Mistress..." Max whimpers, she hates this feeling of Caroline being angry at her, she hates herself more for making Caroline feel that her shop is more important than her girlfriend. Caroline turns to look at her, her heartstrings tugged at the sad look on Max's face, but her face shows no emotion.

Max takes little steps until she's right infront of Caroline, she doesn't know what to do with herself. She sniffs a little, trying desperately not to cry. "Mistress please don't be angry at me, I can't stand this..."

Caroline looks down coldly, "Now you're sorry?"

Max bites on her trembling lips as she nods, she wants Caroline to take her in her arms and give her kisses but she knows this time she's the one at fault, and Caroline is not going to let it go so easily.

"Please don't ignore me. Please punish me or anything." Max begs tearfully. Caroline tilts her head at Max, Max does need to learn her lesson before she can earn her present. The blonde keeps quiet and stares back coldly.

Desperate and scared of this side of Caroline, Max slowly takes off her clothes. Buttons by buttons, zips and the straps of her bra, Max keeps eye contact with Caroline, hoping to see any reaction at all. Nothing.

Once Max is completely naked, she kneels down at the blonde's heels and puts up her two hands together, as one would when surrendering to be cuffed. Caroline raises her eyebrow, genuinely surprised at the act.

"Get up, Max." Max's face fell, thinking that Caroline is rejecting her. But Caroline continues on. "Take off my clothes for me."

Max is instantly on her feet, and reaches behind for Caroline's zip with slow hands. She glances quickly at Caroline's face before focussing on her task, gently as if Max is touching something precious, she pulls down Caroline's dress. Not able to resist the clear skin exposed, Max leans down to press a kiss on it, wanting, no needing to please Caroline to show her how terribly sorry she is.

Caroline immediately tugs her hair backwards harshly. "Did I say you can do that?"

Max recoils back like a frightened puppy and shakes her head, "No, I'm sorry Mistress."

"Get your collar and the leash." The blonde orders and the naked brunnette quickly returns back with said items, automatically kneeling before her mistress. Wordlessly, Caroline changes Max's choker to the collar and attach the leash to it.

She pulls on the leash and walks to the bed, Max crawls behind her. The humiliation is killing Max, being naked and led on by the leash. Granted, the floor in Caroline's bedroom is always covered by thick carpet so her knees don't hurt too much but it is the act itself that is humiliating, but Max knows she deserves it this time.

Throughout the entire month Caroline has been asking her to rest, taking care of her even when she refused to take a break. And when finally Caroline decided to take her out on a surprise for her birthday, she still remained stubborn. Max scolds herself in her head for assuming for even one moment that Caroline is not smart enough to find out her birthday without Max telling her.

Being pulled back to reality, literally speaking, Max climbs onto the middle of the bed and Caroline chained her to the pole at the end of the bed, facing the mirror on the hairdresser directly opposite of the bed.

"Sit." Caroline orders coldly and Max feels a shiver down her spine, rarely Caroline would ever speak to her so void of emotion, but this version of her mistress is all business. Max keeps quiet and sits knees to her chest towards the end of the bed while Caroline goes to her closet to take the things she needs.

Max follows her with her eyes and gulps nervously at the equipments in Caroline's hands : A paddle, a dildo, nipple clamp, lube and a butt plug. Max's entire body starts to heat up to the point she feels like she's tingling everywhere, she's a bit afraid but her pussy is already starting to drip at the thought of her mistress using all those things on her. They haven't had this play for quite some time, Max thinks regretfully, since she was so busy and tired all the time. Her mistress is going all out on her and she can hardly wait.

Max watches Caroline as she walks back to her and puts the things neatly behind her. No affectionate pet names or soft reassures and not one gentle caress, Caroline climbs behind Max, ties her hands behind her back and spreads her legs roughly, Max can clearly see her wet pussy in the mirror before her.

"Oh? We haven't even started yet and you're already this wet?" Caroline says as she looks at Max's pussy hungrily from the mirror, Max blushes deeply and her heart racing at Caroline's predatory look on her body.

"Sorry, Mistress I couldn't help it." Max whimpers, clenching herself but that only forces her juice to drip out. Caroline catches the fat drop and very slowly, pushes one finger inside Max. Max jerks upward and squeezes the finger, gosh how long has it been? Caroline takes it out short and puts it in her mouth, she growls at Max's taste and the brunnette could only watch her through the mirror with lustful eyes.

Caroline pulls her hair back just hard enough and growls in her ears, "You're such a slut." Max shrieks abit at the sudden pain and Caroline continues, "Do you know you've been such a terrible kitten? Huh? I'm going to completely ruin you today."

"Mistress, I'm sorry, I'll do anything!" Max moans as Caroline tugs and twists her nipples roughly.

"Damn right you are, slut. " Caroline growls and squires harder, Max almost screams at the pain as she arches her back. Her mistress reaches for the nipple clams and attaches them to her. Max whimpers and moans.

"Have you a bad, bad girl?" Caroline says and Max nods, her eyes tearing up a bit at the pain. Caroline didn't give her warning of any sort, didn't fondle or rub her before hand.

"Yes, Mistress..."

"And what do bad girls get?" Caroline pulls at the chain and Max shrieks again.

"Punishment!" Max gasps out, "Ahhhhhhh!"

"You see this dirty, wet cunt of yours?" Caroline forces her to look at herself in the mirror, "I think it needs a real spanking, it hasn't pleased me for a long time." Caroline says and she squeezes her clit.

"Yes, yes, yes! " Max moans. "Please, Mistress. Punish me."

"Do you think you deserve to cum? You've been such a bad kitten."

Max shakes her head, "No, I don't..."

"Do you think you deserve to be fucked?" Caroline asks again and teases her entrance. Max grinds upwards desperately, she shakes her head again even though she wants otherwise.

"No, I don't..."

Caroline tugs at her chain and growls in her ears. "Say it better."

Max swallows and moans, "My dirty pussy doesn't deserved to be fucked!" The moment she says it, Caroline spanks her pussy hard. Max screams at the shock as the blonde reaches backwards for the paddle.

"I'm not spanking your sweet ass because we have a long car ride later, you better be thankful you're not sitting on a sore ass for the next 5 hours." Caroline says and spanks her pussy again with the paddle.

Max screams and thrashes around, trying to scoot backwards but Caroline kept her in place.

"Look at yourself, Max. I want you to see what a dirty slut you are." Caroline says and she spreads Max's lips as Max watches herself. "You're fucking dripping."

Caroline then reaches down to rub her asshole, it's already wet with how much Max's pussy is dripping down.

"Mistress!" Max gasps and blushes deeply, Caroline almost never touch her there except for that one time many months ago.

"I wonder if it's as tight as your cunt." Caroline says cruelly in her ear before running her fingers through her pussy to gather more wetness to act as a lube. Max holds her breath as she watches Caroline slowly enters her asshole.

"OHHHHHHHH" Max's eyes rolled back slightly as her mistress plays with her, her pussy on the other hand is clenching and pulsing, hoping for any sort of attention. After a while, Caroline enters two fingers, stretching her insides. Caroline is a bit surprised, Max is tight but not too much so she's clearly not an anal virgin.

"Have you tried this before, Max?" Caroline asks, suddenly filled with a strong possessive feeling. Max is still moaning so Caroline pulls out her hand and spanks her pussy. "Answer me!"

"Fuck!" Max moans out loud before answering, "Yes! Yes I've done it before with my previous relationship! But that was a very long time ago!"

Caroline finds herself jealous, and jealousy is an ugly thing. "Is he any good, huh?" She tugs at the chain and spanks Max at the same time.

"AHHHHHHHHH! FUCKK!" Max screams as the pain crashes into her and settles quickly into the most amazing pleasure that drives her high. "No, you're the best I've ever had, Mistress! "She moans.

"Did he make you scream? Did he ever given out a multiple orgasm, huh?" Max finds Caroline's jealousy and possessiveness really turns her on, her pussy more desperate than ever. Caroline pushes three fingers in without any warning and Max screams in pleasure.

"No, never like you.. I swear mistress! Only you, only you!" Caroline removes her fingers and puts on a strap-on. Max is still trying to breath evenly when Caroline pushes herself into the brunnette's mouth. Max widens her eyes and immediately gets on it. She looks up to Caroline as she starts to choke.

"Mmmmm.. "Caroline just can't get the image of some other sleezy douchebag touching her Max.

"Get on your fours." Max scrambles to the position, everything always happens so fast. She wants Caroline to fuck her pussy so bad she thinks she's going to combust. She grinds desperately onto Caroline's hips, looking at herself in the mirror. What she didn't expect is the feel on lube on her ass, and-

"Oh FUCKKKKK!!!!" Max screams really, really loudly and muffles her scream in the sheets. It's really been a very long time since she has something so big in her asshole, and Caroline is big. "MMMMMMMMM!!!!! "

Caroline takes off the bind on her hands so that she can support herself, then the blonde tugs her back roughly.

"Oh God...Mistress!"

"Safeword, kitten?" Max can't even explain how relieved she is to hear that two words. Of course she was never afraid nor doubt Caroline would ever hurt her, but that two words somehow puts a invisible cozy blanket over her naked self.

"Mercy, Mistress." She sighs out. She watches Caroline in the mirror as the blonde nods, pulls out and rams into her again and again.

Max wonders WHY THE HELL she even waited so long for this, never will she ever last one month without Caroline fucking her like this.

Max screams and moans, thrashes and grind on the sheets just to get some contact on her throbbing clit, everytime she is so fucking close, Caroline will pull back. This torture seems to go on forever, until Max feels likes she's going crazy with how denied she is from a single orgasm.

"Please, Mistress! Please let me cum! Please Mistress!!!" Max cries and she doesn't even care how shameful and humiliated she looked in the mirror.

As expert and experienced Caroline, her stamina eventually ran out and she slows down, then pulls out. There are tears running down Max's face with how denied she is from her orgasm, but this is her punishment. Not the spanking or anything, her punishment is orgasm denial. She doesn't deserve to cum until she is punished enough. A good dom knows how to discipline her submissive and how to push her limits.

Max sinks into the soft bed like a puddle of goo, she literally can't feel anything else except for her poor pussy, and how close she was with every single denied orgasm. She moans a little when she feels the butt plug enters her hole, but she is way too exhausted to react.

Caroline gently turns her around and takes off her collar and very very gently takes out the clamps. Max feels like passing out with how intense the session was, Caroline lays kisses all over her face and Max tries to stay awake.

Caroline then kisses her on the lips and the only word that popped in Max's mind is 'finally'. She happily returns the kiss and is even happier when Caroline pulls her into her arms.

"Am I forgiven?" Max asks hopefully.

"Yes, and don't you ever leave me again. You hear me, Max Black? You're mine." Caroline says.

"I'm yours for now and forever." Max replies honestly and the couple fell asleep in each other's arms.
