“If you want to be. I need access to your ass and shoulders.” He could do that with a bra and thong on.

“I’m fine with it, Sir.” She took off the short thin slip she wore and walked over to the St. Andrew’s Cross and leaned against it so her back was to him.

Colby followed her. “Do you want me to restrain you?”

“Yes, Sir. It helps me get into the scene.”

Colby fastened the restraints, making sure they weren’t too tight. “Safe word?” While they’d already negotiated the demo scene, he always asked.

“Cotton.”

His lips turned upward. “I’ll start off slow.”

“Yes, Sir.”

“We’re ready, Colby,” Max said.

Colby turned to the gathered group. “Good evening.” Colby spoke up so everyone could hear him. “Master Max asked me to do a flogging demo tonight. Regina graciously consented to be my sub.” He pointed to her. “Flogging is something you need to practice before you try it on your sub or partner. You can practice on pillows, dummies, or even the wall. I also suggest, as you get more proficient, you allow someone to flog you.” A murmur went up from the crowd. “It’s important you know how it feels so you know how your sub will feel. The power you put behind your strokes makes a difference.”

He walked over to the table and picked up a small flogger. “This is a good one to start with.” He flicked his wrist and snapped it against Regina’s ass. She giggled. “This is a rabbit flogger. Very soft and low impact. Remember, if the flogger is new to you, try it out on yourself by hitting your upper arm or your thigh with it. If it hurts, think about how it will feel to your sub.”

Movement caught his attention. Lara. She slipped onto the seat Sierra had saved for her. He froze for a second. She was wearing a pair of boy shorts and a gauzy looking shirt. Her nipples were hard against the fabric. His mouth went dry.

Colby set the rabbit flogger on the table and picked up the suede one. “Now this is a little heavier.” He snapped it out and hit Regina’s ass. She let out a sound, almost as if he surprised her. “This is good for a light to medium flogging. A lot depends on the power you put behind hit.” He snapped it again, and Regina giggled. “That was a light strike.” He did it again and she let out a moan. “That was harder.”

“Excuse me, Sir?” a man in the audience said his hand in the air.

“Yes?”

“It didn’t look like you changed anything.”

Colby grinned. “It didn’t look like it to you. Regina, can you explain to the Dom the difference in what you felt?”

“Yes, Sir. The first hit was more like a soft caress against my skin; the second one was like a hand slap against my ass.”

“Thank you, Regina.” Colby ran his hand over her back. “While you didn’t see anything, every time you use a flogger, you have to remember the power you put behind it. For example.” Colby walked back to the table and picked up a bullhide flogger.

With care, he flicked it, and Regina yelped.

“This is bullhide; it is very heavy and thuddy, but a sharp thuddy.” Colby motioned the Dom forward. Colby handed him the suede flogger. “Use it against your arm.” The man did, then Colby handed him the bullhide one. The Dom tried it and winced.

“I see, Sir.” The Dom handed the flogger back and retook his seat.

“After the demo is over, please come up and try the floggers out. One thing I should mention: These floggers are all balanced for my hands, by that, I mean they’ve been made for me. The grip fits my hand, and the handle is balanced.”

Colby put the bullhide flogger down and picked up a leather one. He continued until he’d gone through all his floggers. He walked up to Regina. “Are you okay to do the Florentine?”

“Oh yes, Sir.”

The excitement in her voice made him smile. Colby glanced at Lara; she was leaning forward, watching.

“What I’m about to do is called a Florentine. I am able to do this only after years and years of practice, and it’s not for everyone.” Colby twirled the floggers, getting his mind into the game, and approached Regina.

The crowd let out an “ohh” as he flogged Regina, moving up and down her body. Shoulders, ass, and upper thighs. Colby didn’t do it for long, just a few minutes, then he stopped.

There was silence for a few moments, then applause. Colby set his floggers down and grabbed the lotion. “I’m going to rub lotion into your skin, Regina.”

“Yes, Sir.” Her voice was soft, but she was still with him.
