Lucinda beamed with satisfaction.
“Okay, now that you’ve come clean, I’ll let what happened tonight slide.”
Nathan caught on to her choice of words, “tonight.”
Did that mean she would still punish her for everything that had happened in the past few days?
He trembled with fear as he gazed into her eyes, uncertain of what to expect.
Lucinda’s face softened, and she stroked his cheek lovingly.
“Don’t worry. I have a big surprise for you tonight. Get ready to be blown away!”
Nathan swallowed hard.

It felt more like a jolt of terror.

“See?! I had this custom-made just for you, to match your esteemed status! This wooden washboard is sturdy and has a lovely scent. I guarantee it will do good for your knees!”

“Of course “Lucinda gave him the washboard and said, “Go on, give it a try.”
With trembling fingertips, he collected it, placed it on the carpet next to the bed, and slowly knelt on it.
The moment he knelt, a sharp pain shot through him, causing him to wince and take a deep breath.
It was indeed of a good quality. It was quite hard.
Tt hurt!
The rough edge of the washboard sent a sharp pang through his knees, causing him to instinctively arch his back. He tightly clutched her shins, nuzzled his face against her thighs, and let out a deep groan.
