Today's snippet comes from Legal Briefs: Over The Knee Justice which is composed of two short stories and a novella. This excerpt is from one of the short stories entitled Judge Not: Class Reunion. When Eileen, who is both competitive and a snob, is invited to her class reunion she attempts to make over her regular guy husband, Jimmy for the event. Eventually Jimmy gets fed up.
In this scene, Jimmy has taken Eileen into the janitor's closet at her old school. She thinks it's for some naughty fun, so she's quite surprised when she ends up over Jimmy's knee.
“Are you nuts?”
He ignored her and continued with his corrective measures. “But, I am
still the man in this family and I will not tolerate your disrespect.” As he
spoke, his confidence grew, along with the red glow of his wife’s behind.
“I put up with your pretentious ways, thinking that it didn’t apply to
me,” he said, “but over the last couple of weeks, I can see that this reunion
has brought out the worst in you.”
“This one is for calling me ‘James,’” Jimmy said, with a hard whack to
the center of her butt.
“And this one,” he added as he continued to redden the sweet spot in the
center of her rear, “is for telling me what to wear.”
The list, and the whacks, continued. “Insulting my car. Exaggerating
about my job. Not letting me have a beer.”
Whoa! She got in trouble for calling him James? Wow! He's strict. Great snippet, Celeste. Makes me want to read more.
ReplyDeleteNo, totally understand that. James won't let me call him 'Jim'. One of the first questions I asked my husband was, "Can I call you Jim?" and I just got a very solid, "No." ;) Guys and their names! Soo picky.
ReplyDeleteVery funny snippet! I'm surprised more husbands don't do the same thing at reunions. ;)
Oh, I remember this scene...and she was quite the pretentious lady regarding him! I loved this story!
ReplyDeleteI may go back and read again.
He's got a long memory...
ReplyDeleteI need to read this!! Love this scene!!
ReplyDeleteLove the list of corrective spanks here. And her plea in your opening of this snippet, "Are You Nuts?" A perfect prescription for a spanking scene. Over the knee Justice indeed.
ReplyDeleteHaha! So much humor in the spanking scenes today. :)
ReplyDeleteAy-yi-yi. This lady needs a spanking, and a chill pill. Lol. In her defense, reunions do make most people a little crazy.
This is why we've never been to a reunion. :)
ReplyDeleteNaughty goings-on in the janitor's closet, yay! Poor Eileen - it sounds like her pride and her bottom are both going to be sore after this.
ReplyDeleteVery hot snippet!!
ReplyDeleteLoved this. She must have been a reunionzilla me thinks lol :)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm not sure which made me laugh more...the snippet or Renee's comment. :) Your heroines do enjoy throwing their weight around, don't they? Makes it fun to see them get taken down a peg or two.
ReplyDeleteBoth hot and funny! I enjoyed this story.
ReplyDeleteLoved the book. Was happy to see Jimmy put his foot (er, hand) down.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope no one spills any punch and needs a mop from that closet! ;) Enjoyed the snippet. :)
