Blaine was waiting for Kurt kneeling on a soft rug next to their sofa. His hands were behind his back, clasped together and his eyes closed as he waited in anticipation of Kurt's return. His shoulders were taut and he could feel a gentle ache beginning to form in his knees. He was utterly content, however just waiting for whatever Kurt decided they should do tonight. His breath hitched slightly as he heard Kurt walk back across their hardwood floor towards him.

Blaine tried to stay silent but hummed in satisfaction as Kurt twisted his fingers through Blaine's hair. They had showered together earlier in the evening, so there was no gel but as Kurt had asked him to kneel whilst he prepared the bedroom, his hair was mostly dry. Both Kurt and Blaine loved it when Blaine was left to kneel. Often he would close his eyes and just drift, thinking about nothing other than Kurt and how he could best submit to him. Often he wanted to prove his submission to himself and not only to Kurt. Sometimes Kurt liked to watch him, as he focused on staying quiet and still, literally watching the stress of his day ebb away. Other times Kurt would play music and leave Blaine alone so that he could prepare for him. He never left the music too loud incase Blaine needed him but it helped to set the tone for their play, and Kurt found that the music could help calm him, especially when he was feeling overwhelmed and just needed Kurt to take over completely.

Blaine was tempted to open his eyes but decided instead to wait for instructions and leaned up into Kurt's touch smiling gently. Kurt himself leaned down and kissed Blaine his hands still entwined in his hair. “You always look so beautiful waiting for me on your knees.” Kurt pulled back from the kiss, his pupils now darkening with desire. Unlike Blaine, who he had only ordered into a pair of tight black boxers after their shower, Kurt was fully dressed wearing tight black jeans and a pink and green check shirt with the sleeves rolled up. “Look at me beautiful” Kurt demanded as he moved his hand from Blaine's curls to underneath his chin tipping it upwards.

Almost instantly, Blaine lifted his head and opened his eyes. He had to remind himself not to move his hands as they twitched in excitement hearing Kurt's first order. He looked up into Kurt's eyes and noticed his outfit, a slight blush creeping all over his body as he realised how they would be playing tonight. It was quite unusual for Kurt to be fully dressed when he ordered Blaine to wear so little and that meant only one thing.

Tonight was going to be about Blaine and Blaine's submission alone. There would be no sex between them but sometimes Blaine loved to be denied sex and forced to submit in many other ways instead. Kurt also loved making Blaine prove to himself how much he could take and his willingness to submit. It was these nights that pushed themselves the hardest, so they happened rarely, but it was the nights like these that reaffirmed with each other their relationship and their undoubting love for each other. Blaine would need Kurt to help him through whatever Kurt had planned and Kurt needed Blaine to submit to him and trust him fully in order to gain the best results. Nights like these usually involved pain, Blaine loving to feel the ache or sting days later as a reminder.

After a pause, as Kurt searched Blaine's eyes for any discomfort or worry, he spoke again gently rubbing Blaine's cheek with his thumb. “Tonight beautiful I'm going to push you and you are going to love it. I love you every minute as much as I have the minute before and I will never stop loving or trusting you. I'm your Dom and I know what you need. I need you to tell me your safeword and then we'll go play.”

Blaine loved to be touched; especially when he couldn't touch Kurt himself so again he leaned towards the touch but still kept contact with Kurt's eyes. He knew how important it was that he listened to Kurt in these moments, as so often it told him what he would be going through tonight, not that he wouldn't listen to his Dom normally. He nodded at Kurt's last comment and swallowed, preparing to speak after what had now been nearly an hour waiting silently on his knees.
“Pavarotti, sir.” As he expected his voice was a little gravely and he swallowed again knowing that Kurt would have bottles of water in the bedroom for whenever he needed, or asked for it. However he didn't think he would be doing much speaking tonight, screaming being more likely. Kurt let go of Blaine and stood straight, a small smirk appearing before a steely exterior appeared. Blaine would never doubt when looking at Kurt in his full Dom mode that he loved him, but the determination on his face made him shiver as Blaine knew Kurt's favourite thing was to watch him fall apart before putting him back together again.

“Good body. Let's begin then. I will explain in the bedroom once you are ready what's going to happen. Always remember that if you need to safeword I will never judge you, and that above all my most important job as your Dom is to protect and help you.” He paused, not expecting a reply as Blaine knew not to speak unless instructed directly but took the softening gaze of Blaine's to be consent to continue. Kurt took a deep breath then continued, turning on his heel and strutting back towards the bedroom, his footsteps once again echoing. “Crawl.”

Blaine watched his Dom go, and gently rolled his shoulders as he prepared to put weight upon his tightly clenched arms. The ache in his knees was nicely built now reminding him just how still and perfect he had been for his Dom. He crawled behind his Dom and shivered slightly, with that slight nervousness and excitement he got every single time Kurt whispered to him that they would be playing.

In the bedroom Kurt lit a few candles around their dresser and turned on the small fairy lights above the headboard that conveyed quite a bit of light into the bedroom. Blaine was very sensitive to light and hated squinting from the harsh overhead lights, when he was trying to focus instead on Kurt. Kurt had actually used lighting as a mild punishment over the years but it was rare, as he knew how uncomfortable it made Blaine and strained his eyes.
Blaine once again knelt, hands clasped behind his back and his eyes downcast in the centre of the room breathing deeply. Kurt stood directly infront of him only waiting until he was in position before once again stroking his hair softly. He clasped a thin black leather collar around his neck, one that was rarely used; only when he wanted Blaine to focus on submission and submission alone. Blaine typically wore a copper bracelet that functioned on an everyday level, but the collar made Kurt feel much more possessive.
“Tonight beautiful we are going to focus on you and how much you can take. I'm going to ask you to do things. They might hurt. They might push you. But they will help you. We will both be stronger knowing how beautiful and willing you are to submit to us and to our relationship. I will never damage you as you know. I haven't chosen anything that I know you can't handle and you can take as long as you like to fulfil my requests, but I want to be fulfilled Blaine. If you safeword you will not fail and you will not be punished but not following my orders and not safewording is not an option Blaine. Repeat back to me and then we will begin.” Kurt watched his Sub, loving the change in Blaine that the orders created in him.

Kurt remained calm and watched as Blaine comprehended blinking slowly but his head remaining bowed in submission reveling in his excitement at what was to come.
“You are going to ask me to do things that will test how much I can take. They might hurt or push me but they will help me become stronger. You won't hurt me and you know I can handle it. There is no time limit. I am allowed to safeword and I won't be punished but I have to follow your orders. You control everything.”
Blaine's voice remained steady as he considered what Kurt had said. He wasn't worried about being hurt because that was what turned him on most. Being pushed, almost to the point of wanting to get away, and then finding comfort right at the last second was one of his ultimate pleasures. He loved knowing that it was going to hurt and that he might be left with marks because that would truly force his submission to comply, to not disobey, to take whatever Kurt wanted to give him.

Kurt hummed, pleased that Blaine had understood and grabbed onto his collar pulling him slightly off balance. He leaned down for another kiss, making sure Blaine understood that he was loved and thanking him for submitting to him tonight, as he did so often to please himself and ultimately Kurt.
“Then let's begin.”
Blaine could hear the excitement in Kurt's voice as he struggled to keep his balance on his knees. He didn't have to keep balance for much longer as Kurt dragged him forward towards the bed. Kurt sat on the bed and reached behind him to pick up a stainless steel cock ring. It was Blaine's favourite, as it was tight and they had even had it engraved. Kurt smirked in remembrance at Blaine taking it to the engravers, and his embarrassment at the engraver recognising the object. Kurt reached towards Blaine pulling his boxers off and fitted the ring checking that his balls were fully through and not caught up at all. Blaine winced slightly but ultimately was grateful knowing that no matter how much training Kurt put him through, controlling his orgasms were almost too challenging and often left his feeling like he failed to truly submit to Kurt. “This isn't about you cumming Blaine. This is about submitting.” Blaine nodded expecting that since Kurt's earlier explanation but still unable to look up at Kurt without his permission, his cock starting to leak anyway. “I'm going to start by spanking you, so up over my knee. I will ask you now and only now, do you want to be blindfolded?” Kurt thought it was easier for Blaine to submit under the blindfold, but knew that Blaine sometimes liked to battle with himself to reach full submission and just accept what he could see coming.
“Please sir.” Kurt nodded in agreement as Blaine situated himself over Kurt's knee. Blaine moved each hand to the opposite elbow knowing he might need to work to restrain himself harder if he was going to be spanked for a long time, and wanting to impress his Dom with his strength.

As Blaine settled into position, laying over Kurt's left knee and with Kurt's right knee trapping his legs, preventing him from kicking out, Kurt reached forward a tied a silk blindfold over his eyes. He tied it tight and then kissed the knot, flattening Blaine's curls underneath it. Then he started slowly rubbing circles into Blaine's ass. Blaine waited, now in greater anticipation that his sight was reduced and he instead now focused on Kurt's touch and his own breathing, trying to ignore his growing cock trapped by Kurt's leg.
“I want you to count, then thank me and ask me for another. I will let you know when you are finished with my hand.” Blaine gripped his elbows tighter, preparing himself and then nodded.
“Yes, sir.” Blaine said firmly, trying to imitate his Dom's strength. That was all the consent Kurt needed, as he sharply laid the first smack hard across the swell of Blaine's right cheek.
“Good boy, so beautiful for me.”
Blaine gasped at the suddenness before remembering Kurt's direction but focusing on his voice remaining steady. “One. Thank you sir. Please spank me again.” Blaine hated being made to talk during a spanking at it was so obvious when he lost control but he knew this was only the beginning and even by starting with this relatively easy spanking, his Dom was dictating every decision he made.

Kurt then began a steady stream of smacks rotating around the swell of Blaine's ass. Blaine was quick at counting but Kurt could begin to hear the strength of control it took, for Blaine to thank him, before asking him for more, a blush appearing on his face showing his humiliation. His ass started jolting through the smacks but his arms remained fixed in position and he continued to count. “Ah! Fifteen…thank you sir…another please sir.” Blaine began to breathe heavier as Kurt continued the strong sharp smacks. “Six—-Sixteen thank you sir! Please again sir!” SMACK! “Seventeen, thank yo—ouu sir. Pleas—e please spank me again!” SMACK “Hmm!” Blaine bit his lip as he aimed to control himself but kept up the quick answers knowing that not impressing his Dom so early in the evening could only cause trouble later. “Eighteen! Thank you s—ir. Another sir, pl—please.” Kurt assessed Blaine's ass, all of which had a lovely pink colour to it, as he gave what he decided would be the sharpest final two spanks delivered from his hand as it had begun to sting. “N—in—Nineteen. Tw—Twenty sir. Thank you. Pleas-e sp—spank me again.”

Blaine took several breaths as he struggled with the sting now throbbing from his ass.
“Good Blaine.” Blaine relaxed slightly, as Kurt began rubbing circles into his ass again. “You thanked me so nicely. Looking lovely and pink now, I think you are ready.” Kurt nudged Blaine and helped him up from where he dangled over Kurt's knees, careful not to move him too quickly and cause head rush. He let Blaine breathe for a minute knowing he felt even more disorientated due to the blindfold, before pushing him back towards the bed.

“Up on all fours. I think we need to work on making the rest of your body as beautifully pink.” Blaine hesitated only slightly as he felt Kurt push him further onto the bed, his ass clearly on display.
Kurt reached around to one side of the bed and picked up a brown leather riding crop. It had a plaited handle and a small square of leather that made Blaine moan in the most delicious way. Blaine tried to listen out for any signs of Kurt moving towards him, but he couldn't hear any movement. Not until Kurt swung the crop in the air testing the movement, checking he was ready for Blaine. Blaine shuddered as he recognised the real spanking test beginning and began to focus on submitting to Kurt and ignoring everything else.

“This time I want you to keep quiet. You don't have to count or thank me, I want you to focus on the sting and the sting alone.”
Kurt stepped forward, kissing Blaine's tailbone before swinging the crop towards Blaine for the first time. He chose his already pink ass and struck him twice, one on each cheek. Blaine jolted forward, putting more pressure on his arms as he tried to escape the crop. He exhaled heavily but remained silent to which Kurt grinned, accepting the challenge. Kurt rolled his sleeves up further and then truly began the spanking. He never hit him in the same place twice, aiming to shock Blaine and force him to struggle to keep quiet, to prove that he wanted to take the hits and do whatever Kurt wanted him to do. After Blaine cried out three times, once for being struck on the back of his knee, once for a strike on his (what he thought were protected) nipples and the other on his inner thigh close to where his balls hung, Kurt threw down the crop next to him and headed to the front of the bed, clearly dissatisfied.

He twisted his hands into his hair strongly and waited as Blaine struggled to maintain his composure. Blaine leaned towards Kurt heavily, not knowing where he really was due to the blindfold. He had been crying gently as he focused on the sting of the crop and could feel his tears pooling under the blindfold. “What did I ask you to do Blaine?” Kurt's voice shocked him as it dripped with authority. Blaine curled in on himself slightly ashamed at not following Kurt's orders.
“You asked me to keep quiet sir. I'm sorry sir. I tried.” Blaine whispered. Kurt held a finger up to Blaine's lips quieting him.
“Then I will have to help you Blaine. Roll over onto your back. Hands by your sides.”

Eager to please his Dom again, Blaine rolled onto his back, the pressure of the stings renewed as he gasped slightly. He carefully tried to lift his ass off the bedsheets but Kurt forced his ass back down into the sheets as he stepped around to the other side of the bed towards the desk that sat next to it. He handed Blaine a buzzer and then fitted him with a gag. Attached to the gag was a dildo, it wasn't huge in that Blaine could still breathe quite easily but it did prevent him from making much sound. “Use the buzzer if you need to safeword whilst the gag is in. It might help you to suck it. We both know how much you like to suck cock.” Blaine blushed as he began slowly sucking the dildo in his mouth. “I'm going to hurt you now where you are most vulnerable. I expect you to lie there and take it. Be a good boy for me.” Kurt rubbed at Blaine's cheek feeling him suck the dildo before picking up the crop once again, happy at Blaine relaxing into ignoring the pain.

Kurt hit lighter this time, as the areas he hit were much more sensitive and knew how much harder it would be for Blaine to just take the pain; he didn't want his Sub to fail after all. He began hitting his nipples, each time Blaine flinching sharply before uncurling slightly to open his chest back up to Kurt, his hands trembling under the urge to protect the red raw nubs. Kurt began praising him telling him just how good he was and how proud he was of Blaine lying still and taking everything he asked him to, encouraging him to keep going.

After Blaine's nipples began to look extremely sore and his shoulder's shook slightly under the strain Kurt repositioned him looping his arms between his raised legs, so that he was holding then up and was forced to spread apart his already sore ass cheeks with his hands, one still clutching the buzzer. Blaine shook his head slightly as he realised Kurt's next target and whined as he sucked the dildo in his mouth.

“Problem Blaine?” Kurt asked cheekily and he instantly watched Blaine still and obey his instruction, ignoring the opportunity to safeword. “Five here should do it.” Kurt didn't give Blaine any more time than that before he swung the ringing crop over Blaine's asshole five times, each time hitting the exact same spot, his hole clenching in agony. At the fifth swing, Blaine lost grip of his cheeks where white fingermarks strongly contrasted the red sting, and keened curling away from Kurt and his crop. He still sucked the dildo desperately but sobbed, his knees tucked towards his chest as the pain became too much for him. Kurt seeing how close to Blaine's limits he was, Kurt reached towards his forehead and soothed him.

“Blaine. You need to get back in position please. You took that well, so so well but I need you to finish this with me Blaine. C'mon my beautiful strong boy. Back in position please.” Blaine began to calm as he listened to Kurt's voice soothe him. He felt a constant sting all over him but most strongly over his asshole. The pain however, was not as strong as Kurt's voice and his desire to submit to Kurt, so eventually he listened uncurling and lying back down on the bed, chest raised slightly. Kurt continued to stroke his forehead as Blaine forced his hands between his raised legs and pulled apart his ass cheeks once again, crying gently and the strong pressure felt all over his ass. “My good perfect boy, following my orders. Such a good boy.”

Slowly Blaine settled again, accepting the pain and waiting for what would surely be a punishment for moving. “Pick up your cock Blaine.” Blaine lowered his legs and moved his hands from his ass cheeks to his cock, lifting it but not too far so that the cock ring would pull on his tight balls too badly. He was fully hard and had precum slowly dripping from the head, as it had been ever since Kurt fitted him into the cock ring but he ignored it, not feeling that he needed to orgasm but that he needed to please his Dom. Blaine shuddered but tried to keep his hands and his cock still for Kurt. “One here.” Kurt stroked the head of his cock with the leather crop. “For not holding position.” Blaine nodded, knowing he deserved punishment. He tried sucking on the gag further as a way to distract himself but failed. Instead he waited for Kurt and his punishment, loving the anticipation of when the hit would fall.

Kurt didn't make him wait long but swung quickly, perfectly aimed hitting Blaine right on the head of his cock. Blaine's whole body jumped and an explosion of pain ripped over his whole body, he gripped his cock tighter but remained in the position Kurt wanted him in so as to avoid any further punishment. He screamed around the gag, tears running down his face, and his breathing quickened as he struggled to stay under control and to submit to Kurt.

As he struggled, Kurt placed down the crop and climbed on top of Blaine. He took Blaine's hands from his cock, kissed the head that was now a dark purple and laid his body on top of Blaine's forcing it deeper into the mattress. He held both his hands as he whispered in Blaine's ear, “So beautiful Blaine, you did so well my love. Do you see how strong you are to submit to that babe? So strong. Just breathe though it, love, focus on me. Focus on me.”

When Blaine had finally calmed under the pressure of his Dom lying on top of him, Kurt undid the gag and pulled out the dildo. Kurt sat up slightly so that he could hand Blaine a drink and wipe away any drool before lowering himself back on top of Blaine kissing him strongly on the mouth. Blaine caught between the pain of the hits being forced down into the mattress and the euphoria at his Dom lying on top of him was overwhelmed.
“I love you sir, thank you” Blaine wanted to thank his Dom not only for his punishment but for the whole evening so far, he had been pushed through the pain towards his Dom and found strength in Kurt, every time he was tempted to turn away from his Dom's crop or cry out. It was only then, as Kurt watched Blaine slowly drift that Kurt knew he had broken down Blaine's barriers. He kissed him furiously forcing their held hands above Blaine's head, giving Blaine everything he needed in that moment.
