Soon after we had returned I received a deputation from the Inner Circle asking if we could have a meeting that weekend. They would like to meet in the cellar and they had two requests. They had three members who were challenging each other as to the number of strokes of the cane they could take and they challenged me to fuck at least five of them that evening. I agreed and we called the meeting for Saturday night.

When Saturday arrived it was a very excited bunch of girls who repaired to the cellar dressed only in their gowns. I decided that we would make a party of it so took some bottles of wine and snacks for the 'interval'. When we arrived Marion was the spokeswoman and she said that Jane, Joanna and Margaret had been arguing as to who could take the hardest caning without flinching. They had therefore decided on a challenge match with all three being caned at the same time. I told them that I was happy to do this BUT if they reached three dozen strokes of my Headteacher cane then it would be a draw. Anything more would be too brutal. They happily agreed to this and I then asked about the fucking. They said that they did not know which girls it would be as they were going to draw lots after the caning so that everybody had a fair chance.

I told the three girls to get ready and they would be expected to bend over the flogging table without being fastened. I would give each girl six cuts and then move on to the next. This would be repeated and at any point any girl could drop out without shame. The three girls dropped their cloaks and moved to the table. I had one take up position at each end and one in the middle so that I had plenty of room and could strike cleanly. They took up their position gripping the table and I took up the cane. I knew that I would hurt them - that was part of the challenge - but I did not want to cause any damage so it was important that I remained focused on the target area.

The first dozen strokes for each girl were sighters and standard and, although their bums were red and lined, there was no reaction. I stepped up the power for the next two rounds and by the end of two dozen I could see that bruises were forming and they were all holding on to the table tightly with white knuckles. Still nobody had flinched so I decided to use the Thai cane for the final dozen. I announced this to the girls and took it out of its cupboard. Jane was first and as I approached I could see the weals and ridges crisscrossing her bum were now turning purple. This would be the testing time. I raised the cane and "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" the cane lashed home crossing the already scarred bum. Jane grunted and flexed her bum but made no further movement. "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" she gave a cry but nothing else "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!""WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" the next two strokes landed quickly one after the other and she again cried under her breath but, except for a wriggle, there was no further movement."WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" this drew an audible scream from her and "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" when the final stroke of the six landed she stood up and said "No more!" Thirty strokes received before she cried enough. The rest of the girls hugged and kissed her and tended to her bum while I moved on to Joanna.

"WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" the cane lashed home on the already sore bum "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!""WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" she was weeping softly after the three strokes received and I was sure that she would also conceed after the next three. "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" By now her bum was red raw and she was obviously in pain but clearly determined to last as long as Jane. "WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!""WHIPP!!" "CRACKK!!" the twenty ninth and thirtieth ended her involvement as she started crying properly and said that she had reached her limit. Again the rest helped her and led her off to be soothed. Margaret prepared herself and received the full six strokes before she in her turn conceeded. All three girls had received two dozen with the Headteacher cane and six with the Thai cane and I congratulated them all and declared the contest a draw. I then invited them into the bedroom where drinks and snacks were waiting. They all crowded through and by now everybody except me was naked. It was not long before I was stripped by the girls and the sight of my cock standing after the caning was enough to cause excitement and anticipation among them and they all wanted to touch, or more! The girls eagerly gathered round the pot to draw lots for my favours and as each name was drawn out there was a cheer and the particular girl was hugged and kissed. Once the list was complete I was led to the bed by Joanna and Elizabeth who were the first two selected.

Joanna pulled me towards her and started to suck my cock, although I needed no help to get fully primed. She then lay back and spread her legs wide holding her cunt lips apart inviting me in. I thrust home and found the whole interior wet where she had obviously had at least one orgasm watching the caning. I needed to conserve myself to fulfil their expectations so moved in an out steadily while the girls urged Joanna on to help me. She thrust up and before long we had built up a steady rhythm. At the same time I felt one of the girls at my side handling my balls to keep me in check until with a great shudder and groan Joanna had a massive orgasm which I joined with my final heave and ejaculation into her. I rested for several minutes while the girls ministered to me and I found that Marion had developed a very good line in cocksucking. She obviously enjoyed 'fellato' and the work she put in getting me to stand for a second time was heroic. I was ready for Margaret now and I lay back and suggested that she might like to do the work so she squatted on top of me and eased herself onto my cock. She sat there for a minute or two without moving before she started the up and down movement. As she rose and fell the girls set up a rhythmic clapping and cheered her on. I was holding better this time and I watched as she began to perspire with her efforts until with a final push she gave a 'caw' of delight and I felt the juices running on to me as I also thrust to completion. As she lifted off finally I could see that our spends were mingling. At least one of the girls was between her legs licking and gulping it down.

I told the girls I must rest for several minutes and this did not seem to upset them as by now several of them were engaged with active partners. As I lay back I could see that Marion was kneeling with a dildo up her bum while she was in turn down between the legs of Bridget with two fingers in her cunt. Marianne was being spanked by Jennifer while other girls were incognito because of the positions they had adopted - although I though I could put names to some of the bums. Soon the girls were looking to me again and Marion acted as spokeswoman when she said that the girls wanted to see if being spanked myself had the same affect as spanking others. Would I let them each give me five with the strap to see what happened. Johnny was still quiet and I knew that a spanking was a good way to get him to stand again so agreed and bent over the end of the bed. It was strange being spanked by the girls and I soon worked out the experts who knew how to hit and laid the strokes on hard. The more timid or inexperienced I hardly noticed. By now though it was clear that I was ready for my next companion and Joanna was standing in front of me smiling so I guessed who it was. She asked me if she could have it up her bum and I agreed as long as it was well lubricated. Very soon she was bent over and the cold cream applied to her anus and my cock ready for her. Marion presented it and within a few seconds I was lodged. It was a superb long bum fuck which had everybody excited before we both came at the same moment. I withdrew and Marion cleaned me up before I suggested that we had a rest and refreshment.

The girls were excited and talking among themselves as well as exploring each other's bodies as we sat and enjoyed our wine. Listening to them I feel pleased that the school had developed in the way I hoped and that this group would be the 'standard bearers' for us. I was sure that they would not be short of partners when they left the school and I decided that as the next client for me was Marion I would give a demonstration of 'sensual spanking' which would teach the girls a lot about their bodies and how to proceed. I asked some of the girls to get the spanking instruments together and then called Marion over my lap. She came with alacrity and I started to spank her bum with regular steady strokes which continued for several minutes while between times massaging the bum cheeks. My fingers slipped into her cunt and I pushed up once or twice. I then continued spanking with a steady rhythm to relax her. More fingers higher up and she had her first orgasm. I continued spanking and finegering and Marion exploded with orgasm after orgasm as I changed from hand to paddle, paddle to strap and finally I bent her over the bed so that I could give her ten HARD strokes of the cane. She eagerly placed herself in position and as the strokes landed she was writhing and moaning with strong emotions and immediately the last stroke had cracked home my rampant cock was thrust into her and I was ramming away. By now she was crying out in her exquisite emotions until, as I gave a final thrust and spurted my cum high into her cunt, she reared up and cried out with the massive orgasm she was having. The rest of the girls looked in awe as we finished and rested completely spent. They whispered among themselves and Jennifer said "Sir John. Although we were trying for five today this last one with Marion has been so fantastic that you must be exhausted so we suggest that we finish for tonight. All we do ask is that sometime this term you do the same with all of the members of the Inner Circle."

I looked up and thanked them saying that if they liked to work out a rota at about two girls a week I would promise to serve them all the same, although I could not promise that the results would be the same as everbody was different! Upon which we all retired to our own beds.

The term had started well when I had one of girls who was caught smoking the previous term reported to me for smoking again. This time it was even more heinous as it was in one of the linen cupboards where the risk of fire was even greater. I decided that an example must be made of this girl and after discussion with the staff and the Head Girl it was decided that twenty four strokes of the birch was appropriate before all the school. Any further transgression would mean immediate expulsion. It was arranged that the punishement would be before lunch in the main hall so that everybody would attend and that lunchtime would allow plenty of discussion over the 'rightness' of my decision. I announced her punishment to the girl and she went on her knees and cried that she would not be able to stand it but Marion took her away and locked her in her bedroom until it was time. Meanwhile I arranged for two new birches with about twenty twigs in each to be cut from the copse at the back of the Hall They should be placed in a bucket near to the table on the stage while the vaulting horse was brought up from the gymnasium.

At twelve noon all the girls filed into the main hall while the teachers took up their positions on the stage. June, wearing only a dressing gown, was escorted in by two of the staff and led up to the stage. When she arrived I again gave everybody a short reminder about the dangers of fire, especially in an old building such as this, and pointed out that this was June's second offence. I considered it so serious that the birch was the only answer and she would receive twelve strokes today and the second dozen in one week's time. This second dozen was subject to her behaviour and would be remitted IF this improved. I then instructed Julie and Marie to fasten her in position. She was bent over and the height of the horse adjusted so that her feet just touched the ground. Her hands and feet were fastened fixed in position and a broad strap fastened across her back. She was now in perfect position for the birch with her legs stretched and her bum taut as it lay across the horse. I took one of the birches out of the bucket of salt water and shook it dry. It was about thirty inches long and consisted of twenty fresh twigs with their buds still in place. I rested it on her bum and then "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" it landed for the first stroke. Red marks sprung out from the bum and "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" the next two followed in quick succession beginning to create the niggling pain which would build up as the buds and twig ends marked. I waited a minute before "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" the next stroke. This one she cried out at and the rest could see that the bum was now covered by a myriad of lines. "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" two more and she was now crying out loudly as the pain of the birch built up in a different and more potent way to the cane. There was no 'dead' spot here the whole bum area was alive and crawling with the pain. Again I rested for a few minutes for the birch effects to show and then "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" two more landed in the same area as the first six covering the same bruises and bringing out blood blisters. She was now screaming out loud and crying to be released but I continued with two more strokes "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" which turned the screams to a higher pitched note. The bum was now alive with small blood blisters which popped with the strokes and Julie cleaned the bum with a rag. She nodded to me and I powered in the last two. "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" "SWISHH!!" "THWACKK!!" The effect appeared fairly innocuous to those standing around as the birch has not the impact of the cane but to the recipient it is even worse as there is no protection and already the whole area is alive as though stung by hundreds of ants so more strokes on the sensitive area drives the pain through the threshhold. By now June was beside herself trying to throw herself about and she was still screaming "No more!" when I told her that it was finished. She subsided still sobbing as she was unfastened and led to matron to have her lacerations dealt with. The rest of us went into lunch and it was clear as we listened to the lively exchanges that there was little sympathy for June.

I met up with Matron soon afterwards and she told me that there was no problem with June's bum but it would be sore for several days. She had also noticed that the lips of her vagina were puffy and that liquid was seeping out. This suggested that although she had been punished she had also been turned on by the experience.

When I was in my study the next morning I was talking to Julie and explaining what had happened the night before. We both agreed that some of our girls were ready to move on to further training and that we would arrange a party where there were several men and ladies who wanted to be spanked. We would have a planning that evening with the staff and then send out the invitations to selected people and the party would be held over the half term when we could have privacy.
