I don't generally like corporal-punishment BDSM stuff when I don't see "submissive" as a trait in the character. This one works, though, in part because you acknowledge that Neal's NOT normally submissive by nature.

One tiny quibble: in the story notes, you refer to it as "corporate" punishment, not "corporal"... which makes me think of some bad-boy Wall Street type being punished by losing his million-dollar bonus or his private jet, not Neal being stripped and spanked...
