Pastor Ryan, to his credit, didn’t acknowledge or bask in the praise. He ignored it, focusing his attention on Jade and making her his only priority.
“I know you are sorry, sweet little one. And I know you will be more mindful in the future. You are forgiven. I’m going to pull your pants and panties up now.”
She nodded because she could hardly speak, and he did as promised, pulling up first her panties and then her leggings. It was the first time she’d been spanked since deciding to live as her true Middle self, and the cool cotton of her panties felt so much better on her scorched skin than an itchy diaper ever had.
When her clothes were righted, he let go of her hands, and after rubbing her back for a few minutes, he helped her stand.
Taking a hanky from his pocket, he handed it to her, and she used it to dry her eyes and wipe her nose. She felt even more exposed standing in front of him with tears and snot running down her face than she had half naked over his knee.
“It’s over, little one. You’re all forgiven.”
Jade scowled, remembering what Baze had promised while she was over Ryan’s knee. “Not really. Not yet.”
Frowning, Ryan scrunched his eyebrows and gazed at her quizzically.
“Soap,” she explained, shuffling her feet. “Unless y’all want to give me a pass since it’s supposed to be done before a spanking.”
A hint of a smile played on his lips. “I don’t particularly want to, no. In my world, Little girls who use naughty words get their mouths washed out with soap.”
“I agree,” Baze stated from across the room. “I’m sorry we are doing things out of order, but no pass on that kind of language.”
“Ugh. Fine!” Jade exclaimed loudly, feeling her Middle push to the surface. She’d felt Littler than usual while being spanked, but now that it was over, she was feeling more like herself. Actually she was feeling brattier than her usual self. The attitude wasn’t like her at all, but instead of backing down she leaned into it. “It’s not my fault you guys did it wrong, but whatever.”
She heard Baze inhale sharply, but it was Pastor Ryan who had her attention.
“Jade. That is enough. Unless your goal is to go right back over my knee, I suggest you lose the attitude. You did the crime, and you will do the time, and the order is not up to you.”
Maybe she had been testing him, because when he countered with a response that was so perfectly Daddy, she melted. “Yes, Sir. I’m sorry.”
“I think you won’t feel better until we get this taken care of so let’s do that.” Standing, he took her elbow and led her to her adjoining bathroom with Baze following at a distance.
Once there, Pastor Ryan took charge. “Get a fresh bar of soap please.”
She hated that she had to do it herself, but she obeyed, not wanting to add to her punishment. She also didn’t want to upset Pastor Ryan and make him think she wasn’t worth the trouble.
Bending, she retrieved a fresh bar of soap from under the bathroom counter, and handed it to him, still in the wrapper.
He never took his eyes off hers as he deftly unwrapped it, turned on the sink, and held it under the stream until it was wet and fully lathered. Tiny little bubbles were forming on the surface and she gagged just thinking about putting it in her mouth.
Pastor Ryan waited for her to finish, then shut off the water, and gave her a look she knew all too well. It was that Daddy look. The one that says, “Do what I say or else”.
“Open,” he commanded.
She parted her lips only slightly, not wanting to make this easy for him. Even as she did it, she berated herself inwardly. She never did this to Baze. Wouldn’t have dreamed of it. Why did Pastor Ryan seem to bring out this bratty, defiant side of her she hadn’t known she possessed?
He barely reacted, simply tapped his foot and repeated his command.
It was on the tip of her tongue to argue that she had obeyed, but the angel on her shoulder stopped her and she popped her mouth open, inhaling deeply.
With Baze watching from the doorway, Ryan slid the bar of soap between her lips and lathered her entire mouth, moving the bar around with his hand until her lips, teeth and tongue were coated.
He was far more thorough than Baze was, and the scent of soap filled her nostrils. She gagged and stomped her feet, tears prickling her eyelids as she cursed her stupid overactive gag reflex. It was going to take a lot of effort on her part to get through this without puking, but that was her fault, not his.
Pastor Ryan wiped her tears with the pad of his thumb, but he did not remove the soap. “Close your mouth and hold it there. You said two naughty words, so you need to keep it in for two minutes. If it slips, we will start the whole thing over.”
Jade could only nod and bite down to hold the bar in place. Pastor Ryan held her chin in his hand, forcing her to make eye contact even though she didn’t want to. Tears and snot were running down her face, bubbles were escaping out the sides of her mouth and she was sure she looked ridiculous. He wouldn’t want anything to do with her after this.
“If you were mine, I’d have done this first, and I’d spank you bent over the sink with the soap in your mouth,” he informed her.
