I’ve been on vacation and throwing this together while the washing machine is busy and my tired eyes contemplate sleep. It’s Saturday and the day for sharing a spanking, or in this case, the last of a dozen strokes of the cane. Poor Viola has been bent over the table and her bottom is paying the price for lying.
Previous snippets can be found here, and here.

The punishment nearly complete, Anton paused to touch and feel the heat rising from her singed bottom. He stroked her bare cheeks, kneading the discomfort with a stiff palm. In the background, the fire hissed and crackled, the only sounds that could be heard alongside their restless breaths.
Viola rested her cheek on the table and let out a low sob.
“Eleven,” she muttered, before turning to see her husband’s stance. He remained steadfast with an emotionless feature carved on his handsome face. Then it happened inside her belly: her sex and her breasts came alive to his appearance, his dominance.
***
After a chance meeting, young Viola Pritchard finds herself married to the enigmatic Sir Anton Valise. The innocent Viola falls fast for her new husband. She loves him and only wishes to please him and be the wife he wishes her to be. She’s surprised to find that she craves Anton’s passionate and dominant lovemaking, and even lusts for him to take her in more erotic ways.
Determined not to repeat mistakes from his past, Anton tries to keep Viola at a distance. Her sweet submission and unflagging loyalty prove to be his weakness. The baronet introduces rules to ensure his new wife will remain obedient, not trusting that her intentions could be so pure.
When Viola discovers a series of secret rooms and a diary left behind by Anton’s late wife, she unearths a chilling mystery. With tension between the couple rising, Anton and Viola’s relationship reaches a crisis point. Can Viola crack the armor around her baronet’s safely guarded heart?

I’m glad Viola is responding well to Anton’s dominance. I think if I looked up at my husband and saw him standing over me with a steadfast stance and an emotionless feature carved on his face, I’d be dismayed. Theirs might not be a love match, but I think I’d need a little more reassurance than a cold, expressionless face could give me. Viola must be made of strong stuff indeed.
Appearing emotionless doesn’t necessarily mean he is without emotion. Viola’s not seeing anger or amusement, rather concentration – he’s promised not to harm her. She is made of strong stuff, rather like Queen Victoria.
Thank God her punishment was almost complete! And the picture beside your descriptive scene was wonderful 🙂
Thank you. I stole that picture from someone;s blog who is a fan of a caning and fancy underwear. The punishment was brief.
Hot snippet. My TBR list just got longer.
Bet it’s not as long as mine… it breeds everyday!
I know I’m biased, but I loved this book so much! This is a great scene.
I like bias, it is appreciated.
Being awoken by the kiss of pain is such a delicious thing 😉
It is delicious!
Great snippet!
Thank you!
Hi Jaye, Anton is not as emotionless as he appears, and the whole situation and spanking had such wonderful effect on Viola. 🙂 Lovely. Thank you for the great snippet.

He’s allowed her plenty of time to adjust and she did something very stupid! It something of a turning point.
I like that he’s not as stoic as he appears and that she’s a tough cookie. Great pic btw!
I love how Viola responds to Anton’s dominance. Great snippet Jaye 🙂
Hugs

ooh, a belly flipping moment!
Great snippet – I could see the whole thing.
