Before the Ball (A Story With Pictures)

A shorter story inspired by a picture I found online.

A Reminder That Nice Girls Don't Get Drunk at Parties
Tara was rushing around the house.  She and her husband, Tom, were going to a black tie benefit for the local theater.  She had to finish her makeup, find her earrings, and get out the door in ten minutes.  Tom was already dressed and waiting downstairs in the living room.  This was a big deal for Tom, because his family was sponsoring the benefit.

Finally, she was ready and went downstairs.  She was wearing a dark blue evening gown and heels purchased just for the occasion.  Tom was waiting for her in his tux, cut to emphasize his broad shoulders and powerful chest.  He was 12 years older than Tara.  They met when she was 20 years old and still in college.  She saw him for the first time at a homecoming event; they were were six months later.  Now she was 22 and they had been married for a year and a half.

Tom was very traditional.  She loved this about him, but it also meant that he had very specific expectations for her.  Before their wedding he had explained domestic discipline to her and asked if she consented to being subject to his discipline.  She had thought about it for some time, but deep down she knew it was right.  Her first spanking came on their wedding night.  She hadn't done anything, yet, instead it was her introduction to loving discipline through spanking.  It was her first, but not her last, spanking.
