My reputation precedes me, and no one at the futures market meeting I'm attending questions my tardy arrival, or dares to make any comment about my unusually casual attire - I'm normally immaculately dressed in my CEO uniform of a sharp bespoke suit, white shirt and silk tie, rather than my current jeans and T shirt.
No doubt when they see me concentrating on the screen of my MacBook, they assume I'm studying all the latest facts and figures.
I'm not.
I'm reading the long email that Ana sent me a few minutes ago. As usual, she is far more open and honest in print than in person.

'You wanted to know why I felt confused after you - which euphemism should we apply - spanked, punished, beat, assaulted me.'
'I felt demeaned, debased and abused.'
'You're right, I was aroused, and that was unexpected.'
'All things sexual are new to me - I only wish I was more experienced.'
'I was happy that you were happy.'
'It wasn't as painful as I thought it would be.'
'I feel uncomfortable, guilty even. It doesn't sit well with me and I'm confused.'
Ana
Well at least this gives me something to work with, some idea of what's going through her mind. I think I can work with this. This is far too important to leave until later, so I reply straight away. Fuck the meeting. I still have one ear on proceedings, and it's nothing that I'm particularly interested in anyway.

'I'll go with spanking - as that's what it was.'
'Do you really feel like this or do you think you ought to feel like this?'
'Do you think you could just try and embrace these feelings, deal with them for me?'
'I am grateful for your inexperience. I value it. Simply put it means that you are mine in every way.'
'Yes, you were aroused, which in turn was very arousing.'
'Happy does not even begin it cover how I felt. Ecstatic joy comes close.'
'Punishment spanking hurts far more than sensual spanking. My hand was very sore. But I like that.'
