Shannon was doing wonderful, but Eli knew that his body wouldn't be able to take as much as Shannon wanted. It was the problem with sub space and Eli went into this knowing that he'd have to watch out for that. He gave Shannon two more strikes, just as controlled and separated as all the others, before he ended it. Putting the whip down, Eli went over to Shannon and placed his hands on his back where he knew he had struck him, small amounts of electricity trickling out from his fingers into an already sensitized back.

"No more of that," he said calmly, his tone carrying the normal hint of command that he normally had when he was a Dom. His hands moved up his back, the electricity having stopped, and to his shoulders as Eli got close to him. "I've got a surprise in store for you next, my dear."
