You didn't say anythingabout keeping the key. I lostit several weeks ago.” As much as we may all hate it, there are times when your partner is going to need some serious discipline, or even punishment, for something he has, or hasn't done. By the same token, there will be times when he deserves a reward and we don't want to overlook those times either. In the world of chastity, and especially tease and denial, the lines between reward and punishment often get blurred. The problem is that, quite often, what we might do to someone as a punishment might actually be perceived as a reward, and vice-versa. This makes it very important that we, as KeyHolders, make sure that everything we do in the realm of reward and punishment is perceived in the correct way. If you don't make it clear that the spanking you are about to give your partner is meant to be a punishment, he may actually enjoy being spanked. It might actually arouse him. The fact that you have taken the initiative to show him who is boss, might be enough of a turn on to get him excited to the point that the spanking itself becomes enjoyable.
