It was an organisation that took instructions from the adult registered as responsible for the student with regard to discipline. It was a good system...because if a student was used to being spanked when at home it allowed the parent or Responsible Adult to organise a spanking given by a professional disciplinarian at the students digs when they lived away from home when at University.Megan had agreed to sign on to the scheme because, if not, her mum was going to insist she went to Uni in her. Sarah came back demanding from me that I equip her with everything she needed for horse riding, announcing that she wanted to come down with me every time I came to see Marilyn and would be riding as much as possible. Marilyn explained how this was possible."Bill Thaxton takes in the horses at Livery. They need exercising frequently and he does it when the owners can't. He is pushed to do that, so I go down from time to time and exercise a horse or two. Sarah took to riding like a duck to. I finished and went to the next line, and there she is again in front of me. She turned with a big smile and said, ‘Are you following me?’ I laughed and said something like I knew she was taking all the good courses. We chatted some more until we both finished that line.”Pat’s curiosity took her over. “Don’t tell me. Again?”“Yep—almost. I got in the next line and was minding my own business, and someone came up behind me and poked my ribs. There she was again. I told her we had to stop meeting. It wasn’t the first time she’d done such a stint. Most alphas, as well as some betas and omegas, would give it a go at least once as they came of age. But that would usually last a few days at most. Wolves grew up around a pack, the voices of their pack in their heads. Megan had thought this would be a breeze, but by day four, she’d begun to feel the immense weight of isolation. She’d begun to feel the pressure of being alone, of surviving by herself. She’d never really understood the point.
