“I feel silly. Don’t bother coming over,” she said.
“Baby, it’s not silly. You miss me. It’s beautiful. I’m coming over.”
“I think it’s just silly hormones or something,” she said.
“Baby. Listen to me. You’re feeling sad. I’m coming over,” I said firmly.
When I got there, she had been crying. I held her close and hugged her, without speaking for several minutes.
Then I took her face in my hands and spoke to her.
“I love you, beautiful girl. I lust after you. I fuck your like an animal. But most of all I love you. Everything about you,” I whispered.
She looked into my eyes, silently, taking it in. I think she was about to cry again.
I leaned in and kissed her forehead.
“You’re my girl. I am here for you whenever you’re sad. I will always check on you afterwards. It’s never silly to feel sad or mad or anything. You need to tell me though. You need to let me do my job.”
“Yes, Daddy,” she sighed.
Always check on your sub after a rough session. More on how to deal with sub-drop here.
And *that’s* aftercare, right there. Not just 5 minutes of cuddling post-sex/ scene. But checking in hours or even days later. Not letting her dismiss her feelings as unimportant. Doing your *job* as a responsible Dominant.
And from the submissive side of things, nothing makes me feel happier, or safer, or more secure with him than knowing I’m not going to be left alone to cope with my own rioting thoughts. I’ll trust him a little more, next time, because I know he means what he says and he follows through.
Taking care of me is more than just rough sex and spankings. And that he does it without hesitation, with eagerness, even… is one of the best feelings in the world.
