Bending: Dirty Kinky Stories About Pain, Power, Religion, Unicorns, & More
Page 20
She was babbling now, the images tumbling through her mind too fast for her words to keep up. She felt turned inside out, her asshole and pussy and breasts and mouth and clit all exposed, all beaten, all fucked, all at once. Her legs shook and spasmed as she tried to spread them wider. Her mind swirled through her body, and then circled in tightly onto her clit, where Jack’s ruler was spanking her harder, as hard as she could take it, no harder, trying to make her take it for as long as she could. All she could feel now was her clit, sore, raw, hungry for comfort, hungry for more pain. “My clit,” she said. “Please, sir. My clit. Please.”
“What?” he asked. “Tell me. Beg me. I’m listening. What do you want?”
“Please, sir,” she gasped. “Do something. Please. Stroke it, pinch it, rub it… something… please…”
He dropped the ruler at once and reached between her legs. She came at the first touch of his hand, came in a spasm that jerked her belly tight and curled her up into a ball. She kept coming as he kept his hand in place, the spasms moving up into her chest, into her throat, into her face like sobbing, and out through the top of her head.
She took a deep breath, and came again. Peaceful this time, the pleasure spreading quietly through her veins and into her muscles like an I.V. The Zen-like bliss she’d lived with for such a short time came back now, drifting back into her chest like it was coming home. It had a different flavor this time: looser, foamier, less like morphine, more like laughing gas. The words and pictures that had spilled out of her hung in the air, and she arched her back and let them sink into her belly and burrow into her bones. She breathed, long, deep breaths like her lungs were bursting out of metal bands, and kept coming, or doing something that was very much like coming, not shaking or stabbing her this time, just lifting her gently, a glider in the night sky.
It lasted a long time. Jack’s fingers stayed on her clit, pressing, shifting, circling slowly, as she slowly drifted back to earth and settled back into her body.
She opened her eyes when she was done. Jack was smiling at her, a little wistfully, stroking her thigh. “So,” he said.
“So,” she replied. She had her answer. Like a magic 8-ball: all signs point to yes. She curled up in her friend’s arms, and started to cry.
RESOURCE GUIDE
I said this in the introduction, but I’ll say it again: This book is not a how-to guide on safe, consensual sadomasochism and kinky sex. This is a book of fantasies. While some of the stories here describe reasonably safe and healthy kinky relationships, many of them absolutely do not. The stories here are meant to entertain, to arouse, to provoke thought, to provide insight, to provide sexy images for you to get off on while you fuck or play or diddle yourself. But they are not meant to be replicated in real life. (Except in a consensual, safe, negotiated, acting-out-fantasies way.)
So what do you do if you do want information on how to practice safe, consensual sadomasochism and kinky sex?
Here are some resources to help you out. It includes books, hotlines, and online resources, with information and ideas on how to navigate real-world SM safely—both physically, and emotionally.
You may or may not want to do SM in your real life. Lots of people have kinky fantasies that they have no interest in acting out. And that’s totally fine. But lots of people have kinky fantasies that they’re very interested in acting out. And that’s totally fine, too. If you’re in that second group, and you don’t know how to get started—or if you’ve already gotten started, and you want some ideas about how to do it better or take it further—here are some resources to help you out. Have fun!

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
First, last, and always: Ingrid.
Susie Bright has helped me more than I can say: not just with this book, but with the entire arc of my writing career. I cannot begin to thank her enough. But I’ll try. Thanks.
One of the downsides of being married to a writer is that you get drafted into unpaid duty as copy editor and proofreader. Many thanks, therefore, go once again to Ingrid, for her patience and good humor with this process. Reading porn for typos, grammatical errors, and continuity cannot be easy. I hope at least that it was fun.
Many thanks to David Fitzgerald, Ben Gamble, and Chris Hall, for reading early drafts of the book and giving me feedback. Even when I rejected their advice, it was extremely useful in helping me think things through. (And it’s good to know that the unicorn story worked.)
Thanks to blog readers Marcus Ranum, mythbri, irisvanderpluym, okstop, Pain Strumpet, Nentuaby, Noadi, researchtobedone, Clarisse Thorn, Ranai, Anonymous, Anonymous, and Anonymous, for their help with the resource guide. Crowsourcing rocks!
Thanks to my cover designer, Casimir Fornalski. He gets it.
Thanks to Amy and Rob Siders at 52 Novels, for their excellent work on formatting.
And last, first, and always: Ingrid.
