Punishments of a carnal nature

turned and did as instructed; hoping all the while that the quivering of his
knees would go unnoticed by the older man now standing directly behind him.

style='font-family:"Courier New"'> 

style='font-family:"Courier New"'>His hopes were dashed when a husky knowing
laugh tickled his earlobe.

style='font-family:"Courier New"'> 

Oh my gods please don’t let him
have seen that… he will never let me
live it down!

style='font-family:"Courier New"'> 

style='font-family:"Courier New"'>“What seems to be the problem potter? I have
yet to touch you and yet you tremble ever so sweetly in front of me”

style='font-family:"Courier New"'> 

style='font-family:"Courier New"'>“Don’t be so bloody smug Snape it is merely
you old eyes playing tricks on you.”

really should be careful whom you provoke with that talented mouth of yours
mister potter. It appears we must begin your lessons in etiquette sooner then
even I expected.

style='font-family:"Courier New";mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>Even as a question
began to form in his mind all thoughts were scattered as the stinging began.

style='font-family:"Courier New"'>The seekers voice began to hitch as his eyes
fill with tears. Never in his seventeen years had he been punished in this
manner. His uncle would beat him yes but only with fists and never below the

figure out that all it takes to pique your, errm
interest shall we say is a little pain?”
