Punishment or reward with the cane

It is always difficult to find a real lover of pain and welts through the cane but I have found one.... I love to color a slave's ass with welts and also the hissing and clapping on the butt is music to my ears. My object may suffer beautifully or ? Maybe it is also a reward. What do you think ? Would you have endured this punishment ? Would you also have lost count to start all over again?
