Catherine sat staring at her blank screen for 20 minutes before she could bring herself to reply.

She wrote to Tania's email address and said simply �Punish me; not Lynne.�

It took a full two hours for the reply to come back, two hours during which time Catherine had sat motionless in front of the screen waiting for the �new message� sign to flash.

She had been waiting so long she actually jumped when it did. �Be on line at 9.00 tomorrow. Turn your answer phone on, draw the curtains and await my contact. Mistress XS.�

Catherine hardly slept that night as she waited for the sun to rise and her punishment, whatever that could be at this distance, to be meted out.

By 7.00 that Saturday morning she was sat in front of her screen waiting for something to happen. By 9.00 Catherine was on her third cup of coffee and her nerves were jangling.

Date Saturday 23rd October 09.01

At 9.01 her email �New Message� sign flashed and she opened it up. �Go to the front door, there's a package there for you, and click on this link when you have the package and are back behind your screen. Mistress XS� The message said. Catherine did as she was told and clicked on the icon on the email and went to the front door. Sure enough there was a large suitcase on her doorstep which she tried to lift to carry in. It was heavy! In the end she could only drag it behind her until she and the suitcase stood in front of the screen.

�Hello Catherine!� A voice said. The voice was booming from her computer's speakers and had the faintest trace of an East European accent!

�That's good. We can see you now.� The voice continued. �Aren't video links just the most wonderful things? Now I'd like you to turn on every light in the room and make sure they are pointed to where you are standing; we can't have your screen debut spoiled by poor lighting can we?�

By the time Catherine had complied with the instruction her computer screen too had sprung into life and was showing a picture of Mistress XS sitting on the same box in the same room as the night before. All that seemed to have changed was Mistress XS' outfit. She was now wearing another black catsuit, but unlike the one she had worn on the first video, this one had contrasting red frills between her legs where the crotch split open and around her breasts which spilled out of the front of the suit. She was already playing with her right hand between her legs while her left massaged her surprisingly firm and large breasts.

�I hope Lynne's got a thirst on her today because there sure is a lot of juice coming her way! God, the idea of this show is making me run like a tap!� She said deliberately rocking back and forth and effectively face-fucking Lynne!

�We thought about you using the stuff you stole from us � you know the stuff in the case under your bed � but decided we had some much better toys for you to play with. Will you please now take your clothes off and then open the case?� It was said so pleasantly Catherine almost forgot what she was here for � that is until she opened the case.

Leather clothing and bondage equipment spilled out of the large case and Catherine immediately saw its potential to cause pain. This was far more serious stuff than she and Lynne had played with, and she let out a little yelp as a belt spilled out and caught her hand with the sharp little spikes on its inside. She also could not help noticing the multi-stranded braided and knotted cat-o-nine-tails curled innocently inside! The other side of the case was very odd indeed. It looked to Catherine like it held a large block of ice!

Catherine's hand touched the surface of the shiny opaque block and discovered it was just that! A slab of ice perhaps 3� thick which virtually filled the smaller side of the case� very bizarre she thought.

�Now then Catherine, there's a champagne bottle in there and an envelope; will you please take them out and come and sit in front of the screen?� Catherine complied, but if she did have a moment's hesitation it was dispelled by Mistress XS saying �Don't forget � if you don't do as you are told Lynne gets marked up pretty badly!�

�Open the envelope.� She said.
