"Very good, Akiko. Now just keep that up..."<br/><br/>First, a long, thin, almost ribbon-like leather strap was produced. Given the velcro tabs, it looked designed to restrain Akiko, not beat her. There was also the actual implement of correction: a small flogger-whip, with many pink and black strands of soft leather, about a foot in length, designed not to leave thick, deep welts but instead to slowly heat the area up with many blows.<br/><br/>Stepping behind Akiko, Setsuya started to wrap the leather around the maid's arms. When they were sufficiently bound, not too tightly but tight enough that getting away was likely out of the question, she attached the velcro together to hold it all in place. Finally, she picked the flogger up, letting it slide over her left hand.<br/><br/>"Have you been a naughty girl in the past, Akiko? Do you need a punishment?"
