AN: Thank you to all those who gave me a review. ;-D MUAH!!!

I know some of you have been wondering about the posting schedule. Every 10 days is my goal. If you show me lots of love it maybe sooner.

Also, some of you PM'd me about the 'Sugar. Honey. Ice. Tea.' quote at the end of chapter 7. It's a euphemism for Sh**.

What the fuck Alice?!

I had to slam on the breaks to keep from t-boning Alice. Her Mini Cooper cut me off as we entered the parking garage nearly at the same time. The driver behind me must have had a thought similar to mine, because he screeched to a halt to avoid rear ending me and leaned on his horn.

"Sorry." I mouthed into the review mirror, hoping he saw my apology. Before I could complete my turn into the garage, he sped around me, flipping me the bird.

"Fuck you too asshole!!" I yelled.

Alice was out of her car and headed towards the elevators before I could locate an empty parking space. Her usually spry stroll was noticeably off. Her eyes were blank and she was completely oblivious to the fact that I was running towards the elevator as she allowed the doors to close seconds before I could reach her.

"What the fuck Alice?!" I yelled again; this time at the closed doors that whisked her away.

I punched the call button repeatedly in frustration, hoping that the more I pushed it, the faster the lift would arrive.

The elevator mercifully came minutes later. I arrived on our floor only to see Alice standing outside of our apartment door, digging through her purse, searching for something. Giving up the search, exasperated, she threw up her hands. "Oh geez," she shook her head in dismay. I guess she must have been searching for her keys and didn't realize she was holding them in her hand the entire time.

I slowed my pace to watch her struggle to locate the right key for the lock to the door. When she finally found it, she dropped her keys, and had to start the entire process over.

"Alice, do you need any help?" I approached her gingerly.

She exhaled noisily. "No, I got it." She responded with an attitude.

I rolled my eyes at her behind her back. Hold up, what's with the attitude? I wanted to ask her but decided to let it go. "Okay," I threw up my hands and backed up a bit so that she could continue unhindered.

She unlocked the door and pushed it open so forcefully that it banged against the inner wall.

Not used to seeing her so grumpy I asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." She ground out as she retrieved her key from the doorknob.

Jasper had called me earlier at work and warned me that she might be cranky when she came home, but this was ridiculous. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I asked, after she slammed the door closed, literally shaking everything in the house.

"I said I. Am. Fine." She spoke slowly, emphasizing each word.

I stared at her incredulously. Who the fuck do she think she is talking to me like that?! I felt my mood sour, but again, I refused to get drawn in.

"Alice, I haven't done shit to you." I said calmly. "I will not let you talk to me that way. I am just trying to find out what's bothering you."

"You are bothering me." She snidely replied.

"I'll give you until the count of three to change your tone towards me or I'm going to spank your ass until you beg for mercy and you will thank me for doing it."

She turned to me with a wicked gleam in her eyes and smiled, "Start counting."

The little brat.

Before I could renege on my declaration I grabbed her by the arm and dragged her to the sofa. Before she could think to struggle, I helped her down to my lap by grabbing her right wrist with my left hand and giving her a tug forward, making her fall in place. I threw my right leg over hers to pin her legs down and applied my left elbow to the middle of her back allowing it to rest between her shoulder blades, effectively pinning her down, and stopping most of the struggle that would no doubt soon be coming. She immediately quieted as she knew she was overpowered and dominated.

"Bella, Wait! Let's talk about this!"

With my free hand I snatched her skirt up and held it in place with my left. I was hardly surprised to see her bare because Jasper warned me she would.

I rubbed her ass admiringly. It was smooth, unmarred and it had the cutest little dimples at the top. As beautiful as it is now, it'll be even more beautiful when it's bright red. I ran my nails down the right cheek and heard the undeniable sound of a frightened whimper coming from her mouth. "Don't get scared now Alice. I have you right where I want you, Alice. I'm going to give you what you wanted."

"I'm sorry Bella."

"The time for apologies is long gone, Alice. I'm done discussing this."

Alice almost shot out of her skin with when my hand gave her the first of two firm smacks across her flawless ass cheeks, first one, and then the other. I barely granted her enough time to cry out between blows.

"Oh my gawd!" She shrieked.

"Quiet Alice or you will make me lose count and I will have to start over. Is that what you want?" I waited for her response. I was glad for the brief intermission as this gave me the opportunity to admire my handiwork of seeing my beautiful and unmistakable red hand prints on her ass.

"No, no, no!!" She begged.

I gave her four more cracks across the tops of her ass before placing a few slaps down her thighs, as well as on the sides of her ass. I tried not to hit in the same spot; trying to leave her guessing for where the next hit would land.

I gave her six additional very fast sharp slaps and she brought her hand back to protect her ass.

"Move it again and it starts over do you understand?"

Tears and drool moistened my thigh as she nodded her head.

Alice yelped, as quietly as she could, as my hand made contact with her ass again and again. I decided to ignore this outburst. Little did she know her whimpering left me mildly affected, but I knew she could and would take much more. I concentrated, on keeping the total number of licks I gave her in the forefront of my mind, while trying to keep myself from going into sensory overload watching her white skin warm from a lovely shade of soft pink to a raging red.

By the thirtieth slap, my official cutoff, she was squirming on my lap and was sobbing incoherently. "Please, please stop." She pleaded.

I stopped and began rubbing and stroking her inflamed skinned. I couldn't prevent myself from caressing her heated flesh of her backside. I had to restrain myself from leaning over and kissing any parts of it.

Snapping myself out of my reverie, I commanded her in the sternest manner I knew how. "Now thank me for your punishment, beg me for forgiveness. Make me believe it or it will start over again."

"Thank you. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. I didn't mean to take it out on you. I was just so frustrated. Please believe me. Please forgive me." She breathed in and out shakily, the pain of what just happened to her still evident in her voice.

I removed my leg from off of the top of her. "On your knees in front of me, now!"

She scrambled down off my lap and did as I asked.

I sat ramrod straight in my seat. Her tear stained face pulled at my heartstrings and I wanted to wipe her face dry; but instead I spoke to her softly, "Shush, Alice. You know I had to do it. You asked for it. You deserved it. I couldn't let you keep talking to me in that manner disrespecting me. I may not be your Mistress, but I am one none the less. I want so much to hold you and make you forget my harsh chastisement, but, I can't. I won't. I never wanted to hurt you like that, but, you asked, and you knew I wouldn't back down." I stroked her face, then hugged and caressed her, and smiled softly. "I still care about you and there is no love loss. Now are you ready to be a good girl?"

"Yes." Alice whispered and nodded. She kept her eyes averted downward. I noticed that not only was her face wet; but also the insides of her thighs. They were slick with her arousal. I had to escape before her punishment turned into a reward.

I stroked her chin. "Did I turn you on, Alice?"

She shook her head in denial and kept looking down.

"Alice" I snarled warningly. "Do not lie to me. Maybe I didn't punish you enough." I grabbed her chin and forced her head up. "Answer me!"

Alice closed eyes and took in a deep breath. "Yes." She sniffed. Yes, you turned me on."

I grinned. I released her chin and it fell back down to her chest. I moved forward to the edge of my seat and let my fingers trail down her chest and stopped and rubbed on her breasts through her shirt. With both of my hands I grasped the sheer fabric of her blouse and ripped it open. I pulled her bra above her breasts and found her nipples pebbling, begging to be touched. I obliged. I pinched and pulled them until they were perky and erect. She shuddered under my ministrations. "You like this, don't you? You like being in my control, being submissive for me. Don't you, Alice?"

Alice whimpered, "Yes, Bella."

"Yes, Mistress," I reminded her.

"Yes, Mistress."

I leaned into her and licked the shell of her ear. "Mm… So tell me, Alice, have you learned your lesson? Are you going to be a good girl from now on?"

Alice shivered. "Yes, Mistress. I'll be good."

I smiled at her acceptance. "Now…tell me what you've learned today."

"I've learned not to take my problems out on you. That if something is bothering me, I need to talk about it respectfully."

"Is that all you learned today?" I cocked an eyebrow at her. Jasper told me to ask her about it; I just didn't know that it would come up this way.

She understood my question and murmured so softly I almost didn't hear her. "I also learned that it's not up to me to decide when I come, my orgasms are not my own."

"Very good; what happens when you're a bad girl, Alice?"

She swallowed hard. "I get punished."

I smiled and cooed, "And tell me, Alice? What do you think happens when you're a good girl?"

"I get rewarded?" She asked with no confidence in her voice.

That wouldn't do.

With my ass still at the edge of the couch I leaned back and spread my legs as wide as I could. "Come, Alice. Crawl to me and get your reward."

Alice shrugged out of her ruined shirt and crawled between my waiting legs. Kneeling in front of me, she place tentative hands on either side of my out-stretched legs. She leaned in and flicked my clit with the tip of her tongue, sending shock waves through my entire body. I couldn't stifle the moan that came out as she began to lick my outer lips and my body trembled as I felt her hot tongue exploring my pussy. "Mm, that's it." I hissed. "This feels so good. Mm, I bet you love this, don't you Alice? You love being on your knees for me like the obediently little slut that you are." I reached for her hair and pulled her closer into me. I wanted, no needed everything that her tongue offered.

Emboldened, she placed her lips around my pussy, trying her best to make a tight seal; but all of my squirming made it difficult. She attacked my clit with her teeth nibbling on the sensitive bud before plunging her tongue deep in to my pussy. She pulled back and put her tongue on my clit and began to rub it and suck it with unconcealed fervor, before plunging it back in to my pussy. Her thrusts left me breathless. If it weren't for her hands holding my legs apart I would have wrapped my thighs her head. She never lost stride. She alternated between sucking on my clit and lapping up my abundantly flowing juices, we were both reveling in her handiwork.

"Make me cum Alice," I commanded her, and she did, placing the flat, wetness of her tongue on my clit, rubbing and pressing it against me until I surged to my climax. Then, as I drifted blissfully down from my orgasm, she planted tender licks and kisses all over my pussy. "You like that, Alice. You like licking my pussy?"

Alice moaned. "Yes, Mistress."

I couldn't help but grin as I grazed her breast and latched on to her left nipple. I twisted it almost to the point of pain. "And now you want me to make you cum don't you Alice?"

"Yes, yes, please Mistress, please." Alice's orgasm deprived d face begged.

I wanted nothing more than to give her the release she so desperately craved, but Jasper and I agreed that her pleasure would have to wait. "Can't," I shrugged. The look of sheer devastation almost left me haunted.

"Stand, take off the rest of your clothes. There will be no release for you tonight or any other night until we return to Dark Whisper."

Crushed, she hung her head in defeat; and she did as she was told.

"Jasper asked me to keep an eye on you. Make sure you don't try to please yourself. So to help you out, I bought you something." I held it up to her.

Her eyes piqued in interest. "Since I can't be with you 24 hours a day and I know you haven't master control just yet, he gave me this for you."

I saw the curiosity in her eyes and answered her question before she got the opportunity to ask it. "It's a chastity belt. This one's intended for long-term wear." I strapped neoprene lined stainless steel waist band snuggly around her waist. I was surprised when she didn't put up much of a struggle. I grabbed her arms pulled her forward aligning her pussy perfectly with my lips. I gave it a kiss and sucked her clit into my mouth before locking her pussy away behind the front shield. I tucked the key into my bra. I adjusted the double wide rear chains for comfort. This caused Alice to jump and then winced at the tenderness of her ass.

"I'm sorry Alice," I rested my head on her abdomen before rising in front of her. "Come along. Let me take care of you." I led her to the bathroom to administer her aftercare.

Alice said nothing. The wicked grin that she sported earlier was back into place.

Worried about her quietness I asked, "You okay?"

Alice only grinned. I wasn't sure she didn't mind having on the chastity belt so much. Truth be told I think she actually enjoys it.

I betcha didn't see that one coming did you? I will post a link of the chastity belt on my profile.

Because you have all been so kind waiting for me, PM'ing delectable little tidbits of what you would like to see, I'm going to let you in on a little secret: We will be going back to the DW in the next chapter and the punishments will finally be here. Sorry, no peeking, my pets.
