Family Discipline

Chapter 38

Grayson POV

I released Tanner and started to pace the room. I'm getting myself worked up over nothing. He did fine and dad held back so much. For the rest of us this is a slap on the wrist but Tanner got what he wanted and dad went extremely easy on him.

So why is my anxiety though the roof and this bothering me more than it is him.

Tanner adjust his clothes and dad pulls him into a hug and tries to calm himself I think more than Tanner. After he sends Tanner off to wash up we just look at each other.

"He took it pretty well. He's going to have a harder time not being able to talk to Eden throughout the day and at night before bed then the physical part."

"Yeah well whose fault is that. You don't get to talk to Hailey either. Only difference is you see Hailey at school. Tanner won't get that luxury."

"You have to let them talk at some point. He needs the support and she don't need to be kept in the dark or she's going to loose it. "

"Go help your mom with dinner i have to get going with Tanner."

"Are you sure you don't want me to come with you?"

"No stay here help your mom."

I really didn't want Tanner going alone but what choice do I have.

Aiden POV

I was in Masons room checking up on him when I heard a second spanking start up. 

Damn Gray what did you do to get two in one night. But then the cries happened and realized that wasn't Gray. No it can't be can it.

Holy shit dad was spanking Tanner. Since when did that become a thing?

I casually went downstairs to scan it for Gray but ran into my mom instead.

"Oh hey mom. What's uh what's for dinner?"

She dropped the plate that was in her hand and stared at me. I didn't think I scared her then it registered what she was looking at. I didn't have a shirt on out of habit and she was staring at my tattoo.

Fuck.

"Aiden Matthew what the hell is that? It better be fake."

She started walking towards me and I backed away out of her reach.

"Mom stop there's glass everywhere. I'll go get the broom and clean it up just stay put."

Maybe just maybe I can get lucky and mom deal with this instead of telling dad I know it's a long shot but I'm still hopeful.

I go and get the broom and on way back to the kitchen I pass Tanner who gives me a look as if to remind me I don't have a shirt. Little does he know I've been busted already.

I start cleaning up the shattered plate when mom leaves to go talk to dad.

I just finished when dad comes into the kitchen.

"Come here and let me see it. I dont have time to punish you right now but want you in your room in the corner until I get back."

I slowly walk over to my dad but stop just short of arms length.

"Aiden I said to come here, do not make me come to you."

Fear took over and I didn't move. Next thing I know dad has grip on my upper arm and started landing warning swats to my behind causing me to jump.

"When I tell you to do something I expect you to do it.  Now move your hands and let me see it. Aiden son you are pushing your limits. Move your damn hands NOW."
