After she catches the eye of William Verner at a dance on the colony world of Prosperia, 19-year-old Priscilla Auden's assigned guardian oversees her courtship with him. Though Priscilla is clearly taken with her rich, handsome suitor, when she is caught pleasuring herself after her first kiss her behavior must be addressed.

During a thorough, intimate, premarital examination, it is explained to Priscilla that after her wedding it will be the right of her husband to govern her pleasure as he sees fit. To ensure her complete submission in such matters, from now on she will wear a device which will give William the ability to control her body's response to sexual stimulation.

Though he fell in love with Priscilla the moment he saw her, William is well aware that teaching his little wife obedience will be no easy task. It will require not only firm discipline, but also skillful mastery of her body. If she behaves well, he will show her pleasure beyond anything she has ever imagined, but when she has been naughty she will ache for the slightest bit of arousal as her bare bottom is soundly and painfully spanked.

Yet despite the best efforts of the colony's leadership, rebellion is brewing on Prosperia, and after Priscilla witnesses an erotic display by ungoverned renegades she is emboldened to defy her husband. Will the stern punishment which results be sufficient to tame her, or will William decide to cast aside propriety and let his bride run wild?
