W is for Withdrawing Consent

A to Z Spanking Challenge

Only four more days of this blog challenge! I’ve been scrounging in my backlist coming up with excerpts to fill many of the letters in alphabet. Today’s letter is W and wouldn’t you know I have book title that starts with W. Withdrawing Consent. I hope you enjoy the excerpt!

Blurb: Christine and Alex Morgan are a young couple in their late twenties. Both are busy professionals and Christine has several outside interests. Her book club has chosen a new title called “Save Your Marriage the Old Fashioned Way.” Christine thinks it’s nothing but a way to take women back to the Stone Age, but she reads it for the book club and discovers the old fashioned way to save your marriage is by utilizing something called Domestic Discipline. Alex finds the book interesting and when the members of Christine’s book club next meet, they all decide to try this plan in their own relationships for a thirty day trial. Things go awry when Alex and Christine put this dynamic to work in their marriage and the question now is; can they get back on track and have a happy relationship?

“I’m withdrawing consent,” Christine announced as she sat down at the table across from Alex.
“What? You can’t do that!” Alex blustered in his Head of Household voice that he had refined over the past eighteen months. “I won’t allow it!”
Christine looked down at the food on her plate that she didn’t want to eat and wondered if she’d be in trouble after she told him he didn’t have a say about this. Would he think it was disrespectful for her to remind him that she had the right to withdraw consent? Would he accuse her of being bratty? Of not following his leadership? Would he jump up, escort her to the bedroom, and deliver the usual punishment for those infractions?
She was afraid to look at him because she knew he would see the challenge in her eyes. She didn’t know any other way to avoid him seeing that challenge other than by not looking at him. Her dark blonde hair hid most of her face as it swung forward when her head was lowered. She was within the bounds they had discussed eighteen months ago when they first embarked on this new dynamic for their marriage.
“Christine, what are you talking about?” Alex demanded. “What has upset you now?”
She took a bite of food and slowly chewed it, then swallowed it. There was every chance she’d be punished for not eating if she didn’t eat at least half of what was on her plate.
“I’m waiting, Christine. Are you going to answer me? Or are you purposely trying to provoke me?”
“I’m sorry, Alex.” She spoke without looking at him. “I cannot continue this way any longer and I am withdrawing consent.”
“What the hell are you talking about?” He was almost shouting now as he repeated himself and she knew if she spoke to him in that tone with her voice raised, she would be given a spanking. In fact, the spanking would most likely not be the total of her punishment. There’d probably be something more such as writing pages of lines saying something like ‘I will not disrespect my husband’ or even some corner time.

Withdrawing Consent – Saturday Spankings

Posted on October 17, 2014 by Holladean

Welcome to another Saturday Spankings blog up. Just like last week, I almost blew it again. It’s Friday afternoon and I’m just starting to get my post together. Even after I promised myself I’d set up a few of these in advance. This time of year gets busy for me with the day job. Still, I should be spanked for being disorganized. Nah, forget I said that. Enjoy the snippet and be sure to check out all the other blog posts.

Withdrawing Consent

I’m cheating a little bit here and making this ten sentences instead of eight. Two of them are very short so I hope I will not be called out for this minor transgression. I believe the rules allow this. I don’t have a lead-in to the scene because it is the very beginning of this book.

“I’m withdrawing consent,” Christine announced as she sat down at the table across from Alex.

“What? You can’t do that!” Alex blustered in his Head of Household voice that he had refined over the past eighteen months. “I won’t allow it!”

Christine looked down at the food on her plate that she didn’t want to eat and wondered if she’d be in trouble after she told him he didn’t have a say about this. Would he think it was disrespectful for her to remind him that she had the right to withdraw consent? Would he accuse her of being bratty? Of not following his leadership? Would he jump up, escort her to the bedroom, and deliver the usual punishment for those infractions?

Withdrawing Consent – a snippet

Posted on August 15, 2014 by Holladean

Excerpt: At the next meeting, Christine was not really surprised when Lani announced that not only had she read the whole book again, but had decided to embark on beginning a domestic discipline based relationship with her husband.

“Are you serious?” Christine asked. “Are you going to actually allow your husband to hit you?”

Lani gave a huge, exaggerated sigh and answered, “Not hit me; spank me if he feels I need it. It’s not abuse, Christine. And it is consensual. We’ve agreed to have a thirty day trial and then evaluate the results.”

“Oh, that’s a great idea!” Erica exclaimed. “I’m going to bring it up to Jim and see if he’s willing to do a trial period.”

“You know what?” Suzanne asked excitedly. “Why don’t we all bring it up with our husbands and see what they think? It could be a group activity; trying out domestic discipline. What do you all think?”

Christine rolled her eyes when all the women agreed to give it a try. She couldn’t believe nine modern women were willing to give all control to their husbands and become submissive little Stepford wives.

“What’s the matter, Christine?” Suzanne asked. “Are you afraid to give up a little control? Are you afraid Alex would become abusive?”

“Of course not,” Christine was quick to defend her position on the issue. “It’s just that I see no reason to become submissive. I run a textile manufacturing plant, how can I be submissive and still do my job? It just doesn’t make any sense.”

“Erica is an attorney and she’s willing to try it. You don’t have to be submissive on the job. Just at home, with your husband. You and Alex can talk and decide on the level of submissiveness that you are willing to accept.”

And so it was that Christine was almost browbeaten into giving the domestic discipline dynamic a try. The women agreed that they would discuss things with their respective husbands and work out a plan that suited their lives and relationships. They would compare notes at the next meeting and move cautiously forward while they tried to put the various recommended steps in the book into practice.
