Hayley/Hope (F/f) hand

Request for Jazmine Ferguson, PART 2 of PART 2

One Week Before Mardi Gras

Elijah hoped to find Henry in the corner like he instructed, but the corner was empty.

"Henry?" Elijah called out.

Henry came out of the bathroom still wearing his pants.

"I'm sorry. I got nervous and had to pee. Then, I...," Henry froze when he saw what was in Elijah's hand.

Elijah held up the round wooden paddle, "Well, you just earned yourself a bedtime spanking with this, mister. I hope it was worth it."

Henry covered his bottom in fear, "No, please. I've never been paddled before. I just got really nervous. I tried to, you know, take off my pants but I couldn't. I am sorry." Henry started crying and backed away.

Elijah took a deep breath and exhaled, "Come on, Henry. Let's have a talk here on the bed."

Elijah sat and set the paddle down to his left side on the bed and patted the other side for Henry to sit on.

"I'm sorry," Henry trembled.

"No, son, I am sorry. I forget how new this all is to you and how different things are now. You know when I was human and for many centuries after, people expected their children to blindly obey them. When an adult, any adult almost, told you to do something, you did it or could get a clout to the head or a stick to the back. I am glad those ways are over. But I still believe that a few smacks on the behind are better than...many of the other things that can happen out there," Elijah drifted. "Like getting your heart ripped out by enemies."

"We shouldn't have tried to escape our grounding. I feel bad. I just panic sometimes," Henry confessed.

Elijah put an arm around him, "No one likes to be in disgrace or get punished, but I am not sure you understand the dangers out there in this city. You and Hope could have encountered witches, vampires, and werewolves that are angry that she made another hybrid. Do you understand that?"

Henry whispered, "We weren't thinking of that. We just wanted to have fun."

"Well, the next time you disregard your own safety for fun, I want you to think of the sting of this wooden paddle on your rear end. That is the best reminder after all, I suppose. Now, I know it is not easy, but I want you to take down your trousers. I hope you are wearing the drawers I bought you," Elijah smiled.

Henry could say, "Yes, I am. Thanks. A lot of my old clothes were old. Lisina already spent so much on me, I didn't want to burden her anymore." Henry tugged down his pants and Elijah helped him step out of them until he was in his new white briefs and a t-shirt. Elijah got him a pillow to hold on to and reminded him that he could not touch his bottom or his hands would burn from the wolfsbane and vervain.

Elijah got a few towels and put on the gloves to apply the salve. He sat on the bed and had Henry lay over his lap. He pulled down his underpants and with the gloves slathered on the sticky substance.

"It's cool, but it's starting to burn a little," Henry said. He was hugging onto the pillow. He felt vulnerable over Elijah's lap with his pants off and bare bottom getting coated with salve, but tried to stay still and calm. Elijah was being very kind and measured. He was not acting angry like he had up in the attic, that reassured Henry.

"Lift," Elijah instructed as he pulled Henry's briefs back up. "If I touch the salve it will burn my hand, too. So I am going to have to start out with the paddle."

Henry whined, "It's gonna hurt real bad, huh?"

"Henry, didn't Haley and my brother wallop you with a belt? That is much more severe than a spanking with a little paddle like this over your underpants. But it will sting and maybe ache some. Now, with your healing off, you will feel the effects longer, but just like a human would, not any worse."

"But I'm scared," Henry cried. He broke down. The strain and tension of the past hour got to him. He sobbed loudly. Elijah held the Schylling paddleball paddle in front of him.

"Feel it. Hold it. See? It's a cheap little toy that kids would bounce the ball on. The ball breaks and it gets repurposed for spanking. It stings, but won't bruise. You are going to be fine, but I want you to try to hold still," Elijah lectured. He rested the 11' paddle on the center of Henry's well-padded rump and patted it lightly. Tap. Tap. Tap.

Pop!

Elijah smacked the paddle down hard five times and Henry reacted to the sharp sting by bouncing and kicking his legs up trying to protect his behind. Elijah shifted him on the edge of the bed to lock his legs with his right leg. Henry twisted and tried to clamp his hands down on his behind.

"I warned you not to do that," Elijah said as he pinned Henry's hands in the center of his lower back.

Whack! Whack! Whack! Whack! Whack!

Due to the protective layer of cotton briefs, Elijah was paddling harder than he would have if he was spanking Henry's bare buttocks. He could tell the paddle was stinging Henry's seat greatly, though by his hollering and crying. Henry was incoherent.

Pop!

"Do you understand that you could have been hurt out there?" Elijah lectured as he paddled Henry in a random pattern. "You and Hope may have slipped past us, but you wouldn't have been invisible that long."

For Henry, his vision was blurred with tears and he sobbed into his elbow. He couldn't kick as his legs were pinned, but the spanking seemed unending. The paddle was not as searing as the belt whipping he got, but getting swatted in the same spot was agony. Henry wondered if his behind was on fire, literal fire. He yelled and begged for Elijah to stop the paddling, but it just went on and on.

Pop!

Elijah peeled back part of Henry's underwear to check the redness of his behind. It was still pink. He gathered up the material of his briefs and decided to give Henry a last ten good solid paddle swats on his bare cheeks. Henry's eyes widened in horror as he realized Elijah was wedging his underwear firmly to expose his naked mounds. Since he had a good grip on the cotton material, Elijah released Henry's legs and he could now stomp on the floor.

Smack! Smack! The round paddle covered one whole cheek and Elijah went from left to right.

Smack! Smack!

Henry was exhausted and spent. He was hoarse and could not cry anymore. Elijah replaced his briefs and laid him on the bed face down. He felt Elijah work on a pair of cotton sleep pants up his legs.

"Just so you don't get that salve on your hands," Elijah said gently. Henry felt him rubbing his sore seat. He breathed in as it felt good.

Elijah got up and got a wet rag. He gathered up Henry in a blanket and sat in the now uncovered bed and held him. He wiped his face and fixed his hair. Henry felt warm, all bundled up and held in a way no one ever held him, not even Lisina.

"You could use a haircut," Elijah laughed pushing his curly black hair back.

Henry whined a little, "My bum hurts, but this is kind of nice...I never had a dad like this."

Elijah said, "I thought your parents passed when you were around five."

"They did, but honestly, they weren't around much. They were just...not really there," Henry almost whispered.

Elijah rocked him and kissed his head. "I'm sorry, Henry. Why don't you close your eyes and rest a little? A spanking like that always takes a lot out of a boy."

"Did you mean it that I'm getting the paddle again tonight before bedtime?" Henry asked timidly.

"I did. I know I'm being strict with you, but I need for you to obey me and trust me that I know what is best for your safety. When you are told to bare your bottom and get in the corner next time, you will do it," Elijah promised.

"Next time?" Henry asked.

"Yes, next time you need punished. Like I said, I am not fond of groundings. I feel like you and Hope both need a little more of a firmer hand until you both get it that we are not fooling around. Plus, a bedtime spanking also means an early bedtime," Elijah said cracking a smiled.

"No!' Henry argued. Elijah tapped his behind firmly through the blankets.

"That wooden paddle is right over there, young man. Don't push me. You will take your bath right after dinner, then get your spanking, and go right to bed...on your stomach," Elijah said now rubbing the spot he had just smacked.

"I'm not used to this strictness. Lisina was real nice. Sometimes she would yell, but she never really punished me," Henry confided.

"Well, you will find out that a little strictness is exactly what you need. Now shut your eyes unless I need to flip you over my lap and spank you another five minutes," Elijah warned lightly.

"My spanking was only five minutes? It felt like an hour!" Henry gasped.

"I only paddled you for probably three minutes total with those breaks...So imagine what five would feel like!" Elijah threatened.

Henry didn't answered, he just snuggled down in the blankets and shut his eyes. Elijah held him until he feel asleep. Oddly, he didn't want to let the boy go. Elijah wanted to check his bottom and make sure he hadn't employed the paddle too vigorously, but when he thought of him and hope tramping around the city unprotected, it made him swat harder out of fear. Elijah had really grown to care about the boy.

Kitchen

Elijah was carrying the paddle down to the kitchen to put it back in the drawer when the back door rattled. He put the paddle on the kitchen table and went to see who it was.

"You are early!" Elijah exclaimed, opening the door. "How was your flight from Norway?"

"We got an earlier flight and thought we would surprise you!" an attractive and shapely red hair said.

"Sage! How it is possible that my oaf of a brother got such a beautiful wife?" Elijah said embracing her.

Finn guffawed, "The same way an uptight elitist like you got a gorgeous Wolf Queen to agree to marry him!" Finn said enveloping Elijah in a loose embrace. Finn and Sage worked at the University of Oslo as archeologists. They were on spring break.

"A wolf queen?" said a small voice from behind. Elijah looked up in shock.

Sage laughed at his surprise, "Ah yeah, we have an announcement to make...Come on, honey." Sage pulled forward a little girl of about six.

Finn grinned and picked her up, "This is our daughter, Jazmine! Say hello to your old Uncle Elijah."

Jazmine had glossy hair cut in a chin-length bob. She looked up at Elijah with big brown eyes framed in glasses. She had brown skin and freckles. She wore a green and blue plaid dress and white tights. Her shoes were black Mary Janes.

"A daughter? You mean to tell me that I have a new niece. Hello, Jazmine," Elijah said kissing the hand she held out to Elijah. Finn was still holding her and stepped further into the kitchen so Sage could shut the door.

Finn said, "It is a long story and we wanted it to be a surprise."

"What a wonderful surprise it is. Jazmine, I like your freckles. How old are you?" Elijah asked.

"I am this many," Jazmine said holding up nine fingers. Sage laughed and put down three.

"You're six," Sage corrected. She took Jazmine from Finn and set her down.

Elijah got the adults some blood bags and Jazmine some orange juice. "Where's your luggage?"

Finn glanced at Sage, "We're at the Pontchartrain. Brother, do not be angry. We know you always have visitors for Mardi Gras here and..."

Elijah finished, "You don't wish to be here when Niklaus is here."

"I've tried to forgive him and I will, but I...Can we discuss this later?" Finn said eyeing Jazmine.

Jazmine had picked up the paddle, "It's missing the ball! They always break."

Elijah smiled, "Ah, yes, it did have a ball at one time, but I was using it on a very naughty boy who is upstairs taking a nap now."

Sage looked at him in surprise," The hybrid boy? Freya mentioned him." She pulled Jazmine onto her lap.

"Yes, he and Hope have been getting into a bit of trouble. Freya is introducing her to the spoon as we speak," Elijah said casually.

"I have to go potty," Jazmine whispered to Sage. She nodded and took her to the nearest restroom.

Finn sighed, "Hope's a touch old for a spanking, is she not? I thought that was one thing Niklaus and I agreed on. Jazmine has some...behavior problems but Sage and I decided not to spank. She has a a sticker chart and we use time outs. I can't believe even Freya is now whacking teenagers! And with a paddle? Really, Elijah?"

"Finn, I didn't mean to upset you, but Hope and Henry put their lives in danger again. We felt like a firm consequence was in order. Now, tell me how you got Jazmine. She's a doll. Those freckles!" Elijah said trying to change the subject.

"You know it's illegal to spank even your own child in Norway. Has been since 1972. It's a much more civilized place now, I suppose. Hell, almost all of Europe and the civilized world is like that. But my own family still behaves as if it is 1000 C.E. Sometimes I wonder why I even come back here," Finn said getting up and running his hands through his hair.

"Brother, calm down. I am sorry. I know it is hard for you to...deal with all of this. I am sorry every day that I did not undagger you centuries sooner. Niklaus..., he was not in his right mind with Father hunting us so relentlessly," Elijah insisted.

"Elijah, don't do this. Don't make excuses for him. I am here to see my niece, my sister, you, Hayley, and to show my family Mardi Gras. I am not here to right old wrongs. Can we start over?" Finn asked.

Elijah got up and patted him on the arm, "I would like that. And Finn, the hybrid boy, I care for him a great deal. He has almost become like a son to me. I would never do anything that I thought was harmful. I promise you."

Finn nodded, "I know, Elijah. But there are other ways to discipline than that. Would you think about it? We don't wish Jazmine to be around any violence or stress. She has been through a lot."

"Yes, of course. I will think about it, if you will consider staying here for your visit. Family should stay with family," Elijah countered.

"Elijah, you never change," Finn said tirelessly. "I'll speak to Sage."

"So Jazmine? She's not human is she?" Elijah could sense that, but he couldn't put his finger on her. "Witch?"

Finn nodded, "Yes, she's part witch..."

"But...? There is more, isn't there. Tell me," Elijah pressed.

"She's also a werewolf," Finn revealed.

"Just like Niklaus was...before we were turned. My God, Finn, that is so rare," Elijah breathed.

"I know. She has very special needs. We know it won't be easy, but we already love her very much. And Sage is a wonderful mother," Finn added.

"Oh, I'm sure. I can see you being a good dad. But werewolf children can be so angry. Finn, are you sure there isn't more," Elijah asked suspiciously.

Finn turned and looked Elijah in the eye, "She's a siphoner, Brother. Did you see why she needs us? She is in great danger."

"Oh Finn, I've never even heard of one," Elijah gasped.

"Well, you have now," Finn said finishing his blood bag.

Rousseau's

Late Afternoon

"So you will come to dinner tonight?" Klaus said as Cami broke away from him.

"Maybe," Cami said coyly.

"What do I have to do? Name your price, woman," Klaus said as he touched her blond hair slowly.

"How about you tell me about your past first?" Cami pressed.

Klaus cringed, "Camille, that would take weeks. It's a bit of a long story." His green eyes flashed fear.

"Why are you afraid? Klaus, look at me. You do not have to fear the telling me the truth. I won't judge you. I love you," Cami said.

"Camille, we've been meeting here in secret since I got home and you have made me so happy. I am afraid to lose you," Klaus admitted.

"You won't, Klaus. You need to trust me if this is going to work, okay? Look, I need to go, but think about what I said," Cami said before kissing him and turning away.

Freya's Workshop

Hope shifted again on the cushion and growled, "This is bullshit." Her butt smarted and she was nervous that her mom was going to storm in and spank her again. She couldn't help but stare at the door.

"Hope, that's enough. You have been polishing the same vial for twenty minutes. I am going to spank you again if you don't finish that," Freya warned.

"Spank her again? I thought she was sick," Hayley said in confusion. She noticed the cushion her daughter was gingerly sitting on and the wooden spoon on Freya's desk.

"Your daughter has something to tell you," Freya said seriously.

"Uh-oh, this doesn't sound good," Hayley intoned. Hope began to cry and got up.

"Mommy, I'm sorry. Please don't spank me again. Aunt Freya paddled me really hard with," Hayley began to sob too hard to speak clearly. Freya filled in Hayley on the phone call with Kol, the spell attempt, and the spankings.

"I did warn her if you had to spank her, she was getting it again from me," Hayley informed Freya winking at her. "Hey, your brother Finn and Sage are downstairs. They have a big surprise. You probably want to get your butt down there pronto." Freya thanked Hayley and went to see the visitors.

"Now, tell me what you did to make your aunt, who has never spanked you or even smacked your hand, punish you like this? I want the whole truth from my daughter," Hayley said firmly. Hope didn't know it but Freya had texted Hayley everything on the side. She wanted her to know about the salve and that Hope already was disciplined, but not behaving very well after.

Hope just stomped her feet and make fists. She knew her mom was going to spank the daylights out of her again either way. Hope wailed and covered her face with her hands. Her shirt covered her underwear a little, but when Hope turned away in shame, Hayley noticed some pink on the edges of her bottom.

Hayley vamped to Hope and hugged her until she settled down.

"You can tell me standing up or over my lap getting another licking," Hayley threatened.

Hope squeezed her eyes shut and said, "I can't. I already got punished. This isn't fair. Aunt Freya said you wouldn't spank me again."

"Aunt Freya didn't know that I warned you I would if you misbehaved up here again," Hope clarified.

Then, she marched her to the same couch that Freya had spanked Hope on earlier. Hope panicked and dragged her feet. She muttered a spell to root herself on the spot but was too upset to get it to work.

Soon, Hayley had Hope over her lap and was patting her behind over the nylon pants.

"Your butt must have been stinging pretty bad for your to be sitting there in your undies, missy. It still looks pink, but yeah, you can take another spanking," Hayley said lightly. "And I hope you were not trying to use magic on me back there! I have been way to easy on you. That ends now."

Hayley tapped Hope's behind and swatted the center of her behind lightly. tap. Tap! Tap!

"Don't!" Hope yelled.

"Don't you tell me what I can or cannot do, young lady. Maybe Henry isn't the only young wolf who needs the belt!" Hayley warned.

"No, Mommy. My butt has vervain and wolfsbane. It will sting your hand! For real," Hope gulped.

"I'll just have to paddle you over these panties then," Hayley said. Pat! Smack! Pat! Smack!

Hope tried to kick and swim off of Hayley's lap, but until Freya, Hayley had hybrid strength. She gave Hope a firmer smack on the seat of her underpants. Pop.

"Now, tell me everything. You tell the truth better over my knee, it seems," Hayley dictated. She patted Hope's rear in warning that she could get spanked at any time if she did not obey. Hope gushed out the whole story including the part about Kol calling Elijah the village idiot, which made Hayley choke back a laugh.

"So you two were going to take off again into the sunset. Do you think you could control Henry if he got hungry? What if someone tried to kidnap you two or worse, kill you?" Hayley said.

"No, Mom," Hope wept.

Hayley signed, "Your uncle and aunt are visiting downstairs. I am willing to lift your grounding, but you are going to have to take another spanking. You decide."

Hope whined, "Both suck! But spank me already."

"Okay, but you still don't go anywhere without one of us with you. We kept training in combat, magic, and diplomacy...Oh hell, let's just do this. I needed you and Freya at the florist. I don't even know what that lady talked me into ordering," Hayley admitted. Even as she had Hope over her knee, she noticed the redness subsiding. The salve must have been wearing off a little.

"What about Henry?" Hope asked.

"Elijah is going to deal with him. But I'm sure he will get he same deal," Hayley said. "Okay."

Hayley spanked Hope with the flat of her hand over the nylon panties lightly for a moment. When she didn't seem to be getting any reaction out of Hope, she spanked firmer and faster all over. Hayley swatted only her bottom avoiding her thighs so she didn't burn her own hands with vervain. Hope was grunting and writhing and seemed to be in some distress by the time Hayley ended the spanking.

Hope had lost count of the spanks at 35, but her butt was stinging and burning. Hayley stopped and set her tribrid daughter on her feet. She hopped and threw back a hand to try to alleviate the sharp sting.

"Mom, you have a hard hand," Hope sniffed. Hayley couldn't help but laughed and went to hug Hope. Hope pushed away scowling. Hayley was hurt, but willing to give the teen some space if she needed it.

"You can be mad at me, that's okay. I lit that butt up pretty good again. But baby, you're not grounded anymore. You can get your phone and computer out of my room. When you are ready, come down and say hi to Uncle Finn and...," Hayley was cut off by Hope throwing herself at her.

"Sorry," Hope said as she put her arms around Hayley's waist. "I wanted to go to the florist with you. I'm a bridesmaid."

Hayley teared up, "I know. We're go back, okay. Hope, look at me. You cannot put yourself in danger. I know you are growing up. I know you are smart and strong and powerful, but it only takes a second for someone to hurt you. Will you promise me that you are done with this kind of crap?"

Hope whispered, "I promise."

"I love you so much," Hayley said wiping away tears. "But honey, you gotta put on pants!"

Hope laughed and realized she was still in her underwear, "Can you vamp down and get me some sweats?"

"Nope, you wanted those tight jeans now squeeze your throbbing bum in them. It's a reminder to behave. I am done spoiling you," Hayley informed her.

"You never spoiled me!" Hope said as she started pulled on the stiff jeans.

"Hmm," Hayley growled. "I don't know about that."

Hayley giggled as Hope hissed as she buttoned her pants and stiffly walked downstairs. Hope started to laugh too while protesting it wasn't funny. Hope then realized that she was healing fast. The salve was wearing off.

Nothing lasted forever.
