Battle of wills

Even before I started at Glentilt Academy I had heard the reputation that it was one of the strictest but also one of the best private schools in the country. I would be starting there at the beginning of my penultimate year of schooling following my parents transfer to the local area. As soon as I arrived at the school I found out that my reputation as a ‘handful’ had preceded me. I had been known at all my schools for not taking a backward step to anyone and for being quite lippy at times. I found out that they knew about my reputation because on my first day I was introduced to the teacher who was going to be my ‘mentor’ during the first term to ensure that I settled in to the school without any major problems. Miss Grant was one of the younger teachers on the staff but I soon found out that she had a reputation amongst the pupils as one of the strictest of the teachers and from that very first meeting she made me aware that a lot of the behaviour that had been tolerated in my previous schools just wouldn’t be tolerated within Glentilt Academy.

‘Should you continue to demonstrate the same aggression and impertinence then you will be punished very severely’ she said and to highlight the point she showed me a formidable looking tawse and told me that it could be used on either the hands or the bare bottom depending upon the actual offence.

All of the prefects in the school were female as it was felt that they were more suited to controlling the dormitories which was their major role in the school. Each of the dormitories had a maximum of 8 people from the same school year and to discourage any sexual relationships all of the male dormitories were in one building and the female were in another building and it was a very serious disciplinary offence to be in the wrong building at any time. Naturally this did not extend to those prefects that were in control of the male dormitories as all prefects lived within the dormitory itself but had a separate room at one end of it. My dormitory was under the control of Wendy Cormack who was a new prefect that year and also in her penultimate year of schooling. Most of the lads in the dormitory were new to the school this year and they all seemed pretty timid especially when Wendy was outlining how she was going to run her dormitory.

I was the only one to ask any questions and some of them probably did demonstrate my impertinence and having just told us that she was authorised to give as many spankings as she wished and that she intended to make full use of this sanction it was almost inevitable that she would give a practical demonstration. Because of my questions, and having probably been briefed on my personality by Miss Grant I was always likely to be the recipient of this practical demonstration.

‘Ken you will be my subject for this demonstration. You will lower your trousers and underpants before bending over my lap’ she said confidently.

I didn’t put up any complaint and if I was being honest this was because I was quite looking forward to the experience as Wendy was an attractive young lady who I would have loved to get to know much better. Wendy started her spanking with some very crisp smacks that felt surprisingly sharp but then she started to spank me hard and fast for about 5 minutes demonstrating not inconsiderable skill in the process. By the time she finished the spanking there was quite a lot of heat and sting in my bottom but I didn’t give any physical or vocal reaction to the spanking but as I stood up from Wendy’s lap and rearranged my clothing I gave her a subtle little nod telling her that she had been good. As I turned round I noticed the sneering look on the faces of two of the lads in the dormitory and over the next few days they tried to take control of the dorm but I wasn’t going to be letting them control me in the slightest and as I was bigger and stronger physically and mentally than them they had no chance of making me submit individually. Wendy was well aware of what was going on but she wanted to let it resolve itself naturally if she could because she could then assert her authority over the leader in the dormitory thus ensuring that she had complete control over the whole dormitory.

At the end of the first week of term trials took place for all of the sports teams at Glentilt academy and I was taking part in the rugby trial. Having played for each of my schools to date I was pretty sure that I would get on the team but I was looking forward to the trial anyway because the pressure was something that always pushed me to a higher level of performance. Mike and Hugh, the two lads who were trying to take the role of dormitory leader, had also decided to take part in the trial and it was obvious that, having been placed on the opposite team to me, they were going to target me at every opportunity. Wendy had already done the trial for the hockey team and had got her place so she was amongst the crowd watching the trial on the Saturday afternoon. From the very start of the trial match Mike and Hugh teamed up against me because they knew that if they tried anything singly then I would decimate them. None of the teachers saw they sly little punches, kicks and rakes that they put into me but what they did see was the absolutely perfect tackle that I made on Hugh that flattened him. They then saw Mike deliberately trample all over my chest when I was nowhere near the ball and I was absolutely livid when I got to my feet. I took Mike out off the ball as soon as the game restarted and then a teacher stepped between us and told us both to cool it but it was probably just as well that the trial match was almost over because I was still looking to get my revenge on Mike and I would have done it with a savage tackle but I didn’t get the chance and it looked like I never would because neither Hugh nor Mike made the team whereas I did.

There was a very tense atmosphere in the changing rooms as everyone had seen what had gone on between the three of us and they expected some afters to take place. Before that could happen Wendy strode into the middle of the changing room completely ignoring the fact that there were 30 naked lads in it.

‘My room in twenty minutes’ was all she said before striding off again and everyone in the changing rooms knew exactly what was going to happen.

‘I watched the three of you throughout that game and saw everything that went on. What you two did was nothing short of assault and bullying. It was cowardly, despicable and something that I simply will not tolerate from anyone in my dormitory. And you Ken should not have retaliated when the teachers had seen the trampling and were going to take the appropriate action at the end of the trial. I am going to spank all three of you and you can be very thankful that I am not taking this matter to the Headmistress because she would tawse you so hard that you would not sit comfortably for a week’ was the lecture that Wendy delivered as soon as all three of us were in her room.

Wendy placed her high-backed chair in the centre of the floor and sat down on it before ordering Hugh to drop his trousers and underpants and get over her lap. He refused to do it so Wendy simply did it for him and dragged him down over her lap with no difficulty whatsoever. It was a very hard spanking and lasted for a full ten minutes and very quickly Hugh was kicking out and pleading with Wendy to stop but she didn’t. By the end of it tears were flowing freely down his cheeks and when she let him up from her lap Wendy commented.

‘You are not quite so tough now are you? Mike you will now drop your trousers and underpants and get over my lap’.

Mike obviously hadn’t a lot of sense because he too refused to obey Wendy but was just as easily stripped to the bare bottom and pulled down over her lap. His spanking was every bit as hard and he took it just as badly as Hugh which meant that there was no way they could lay claim to being the leader of the dormitory and any shred of respect that Wendy may have had for them had vanished completely.

‘Ken it is your turn now. You will bare your bottom and take up your position over my lap’ Wendy commanded and it was a genuine command.

I would have obeyed her command anyway but seeing how easily she had handled Hugh and Mike’s resistance convinced me of the futility of any resistance. From the very start of this spanking it was clear that the demonstration that Wendy had given me at the start of the week had been very gentle because each individual smack was much harder and the smacks seemed to rain down on my bottom even more frequently. Although this was much worse than before I kept most of my composure sealing my position as the alpha male within the dormitory.

‘Hugh and Mike you may go but if you try any form of bullying in the future then you will be reported to the Headmistress immediately. Ken you will remain here’ Wendy said.

‘Ken I want you to be in control of this dormitory but you must realise that I am in charge of the dormitory. In effect you are my lieutenant. To ensure that you are fully aware of this fact I am going to show you my full skill as a spanker and this will make you think twice before disregarding my authority’.

In reality we both knew that I would not be challenging her authority and that her control over me was already a given but this would only set it in concrete in my mind.

‘You will resume your position over my lap’ Wendy said having picked up her hairbrush from the desk. She uses this to lambast every part of my bottom. Every smack was heavy and felt like it was bruising deeply. It was leaving me very sore and I had completely lost count of the number of smacks that had landed but I was going to hang on for as long as I possibly could before making any plea as I really wanted to impress Wendy. Wendy seemed to realise this as well and carried on until eventually I had to make a plea for the onslaught to stop but just to make her point she gave me another six heavy smacks before telling me that I could get up off of her lap.

‘Look at me Ken’ Wendy says as soon as I have stood up. We look into each other’s eyes and I imagine that she can see a look of pure respect tinged with fear and lust in mine because that is exactly what I am feeling. No words are spoken between us because we both know exactly what has happened and nothing needs to be said.

Our relationship develops very well with Wendy allowing me to be myself up to a point and then she punishes me if I step over an invisible and moveable line in her mind. This keeps me on my toes as does the fact that her punishments vary from long written impositions that are sometimes ignored and sometimes checked with a fine toothed comb through to very hard spankings. Whatever Wendy decided to do to me it felt ‘right’ and I never had any resentment towards her even when the punishments kept mounting up. The lust that I had felt after the spanking also became deep seated within us but neither of us did anything about it because we would have been caught immediately and dealt with severely. At the weekends I also spent quite a bit of time skivvying for Wendy because I was completely hers at this time other than when I was playing for the rugby team. My duties included running back and forward to the library, cleaning muddy hockey boots, polishing shoes and making tea.

Very subtly Wendy was shaping my attitude and social personality generally and particularly in relation to women where I was becoming very deferential at all times. Miss Grant herself had been working on my academic progress and she was trying to harness my natural intelligence to a strong work ethic which had never happened before. More importantly though she was trying to turn my insolence and argumentative streak into a more measured debating style that would be a positive influence in all of my classes. It was incredibly hard work and led to lots of punishment from Miss Grant but it was beginning to work and I was really benefitting from it, if for no other reason than I was getting less punishments in my classes.

Things with Hugh and Mike had settled down but I knew that there was still a simmering resentment at the fact that I had control over the dormitory and the problems returned at the start of our final year at school and almost had very devastating consequences for me. I had been off of the school premises one Saturday morning playing in what turned out to be a very brutal rugby match. I came back to the school very battered and bruised with a long raking cut down my back and a left eye that was almost completely closed as a result of a black eye. Even in this state my first stop when I got back to school was Wendy’s room to pick up the task list that she’d left me. Unusually Wendy was in the room this time and when she saw the state I was in she took me straight to the Matron to have my injuries attended to. Wendy stayed with me to help the Matron watching as every inch of my body was examined and treated because this gave her the perfect excuse to ogle me and because of my rugby I had a good physique.

All pupils had to attend a church service on the Sunday morning and after this there was a brief assembly and during this I was instructed to attend the Headmistress’ office with Anna Reid immediately afterwards. Anna was a girl in her sixth year as well and we were good friends but that was it so I had absolutely no idea what this was about but perhaps the look of evil satisfaction that I saw on Hugh’s face should have told me something but I didn’t think about it at that time. As Anna and I were waiting outside the Headmistress’ office neither of us were worried because we hadn’t done anything wrong. We both saw the angry look on the Headmistress’ face as she rounded the corner and were put on edge as we were led into the office.

‘I have received a report that you two were seen kissing yesterday morning and then a used condom was discovered in Ken’s bed yesterday afternoon’ was the allegation from the Headmistress. I looked at Anna at this statement and she had a look of pure horror on her face because it was a nasty slur on her reputation. We both strenuously denied the allegation but this only angered the Headmistress further and she repeated the allegation. It was as she repeated it that I realised she had said yesterday morning and afternoon which meant it was impossible for me to be involved and thus the whole thing was a fabrication.

‘Did you say that the offences were reported to have taken place yesterday morning and afternoon’ I asked with what I hoped was a suitably respectful tone.

‘Yes!’ was the answer that was snapped back at me.

‘In that case this is a complete fabrication. I was playing rugby for the school yesterday morning and then spent the majority of the afternoon with the Matron having my injuries treated before then undertaking tasks for my dormitory prefect Wendy Cormack. You will be able to confirm all of this with Mr Monroe, the Matron and Wendy Cormack’ I said calmly. The Headmistress did check with Mr Monroe and the Matron who both confirmed that what I had said was correct and thus the offences could not have happened.

‘Anna, Ken please accept my apologies for this slur on both of your names. You are free to go’ the Headmistress said.

As soon as we were out of the Headmistress’ office Anna was spitting feathers and wondering what the hell was going on. It was at that point that the look on Hugh’s face came back to me and I mentioned that I thought we’d been set up by Hugh and/or Mike which only made Anna angrier.

‘What pathetic little boys. Hugh tried to score with me last weekend and I told him where to go in no uncertain terms because he is an arrogant and ugly little sod. I know that he hates you but is scared of taking you on so he must have hatched this little scheme to get us both back. Mike was probably involved as well because Hugh is too thick to think up this on his own’ Anna said with an amazing amount of vitriol in her voice. We go back to our respective dormitories and I was plotting what I was going to do to Hugh and Mike all my way there knowing that it wouldn’t take place in the dormitory itself or indeed the next few weeks so that they thought they’d gotten away with it.

Hugh and Mike both looked absolutely horrified when I walked back into the dorm with no obvious signs of having been punished but I didn’t say a word to them. A few moments later Melissa, the Headgirl, walked into the dorm and led Hugh away without saying a word. Wendy came into the dormitory herself and immediately took me into her room.

‘What was that all about Ken’ she asked.

‘Anna and I were accused of kissing yesterday morning and then having sex because the allegation was that a used condom being found in my bed yesterday afternoon’ I answered and Wendy looked shocked.

‘That is horrible Ken. I guess in that case Hugh was responsible for the lie because he has now been taken to the Headmistress himself’.

‘Yes it is horrible and it was a total lie as you know because I was playing rugby yesterday morning and then we were with the Matron yesterday afternoon. It was also a lie because while I am friends with Anna the only girl in this school that I would be having sex with is you’ I said.

‘Thank you Ken if I thought we could get away with it I would be having you in my bed but we would be caught and we would suffer hugely for it. But it is not that long until we are out of school and can give free rein to our passions’ Wendy said before giving me a peck on the lips that became a brief but very passionate kiss.

‘What would happen to us if we were caught’ I asked.

‘Had you and Anna actually had sex then you would almost certainly have been caned with exceptional severity in front of each other and put on a final warning for expulsion. If we were caught the exact same thing would happen but it would probably be even worse because of the fact that I am your prefect. Hugh is likely to be getting an extremely severe caning for having made the Headmistress look like a fool by giving her such a malicious lie’.

To prove that point Hugh was soon brought back into the dormitory by Melissa and evidence of his distress was painfully obvious with very stiff movements and tears still coursing down his cheeks.

‘Get your stuff together and follow me’ Melissa barked at Hugh before going to talk briefly with Wendy. I found out that Hugh had been transferred to Melissa’s dormitory which apparently she ruled with a rod of iron so his days of bullying anyone are gone.

‘Melissa did also say that I should keep a very close eye on you which I intend to do and will certainly enjoy doing’ Wendy said giving me another kiss.
