Lemuel wasn’t too surprised about what the Lawyer had just told him. Thanks to being up to speed about what was happening.“I appreciate your consideration Mr. Sam. I’m sorry to hear that. I believe we can work something out. I will need to speak with my Lawyer first. You will hear from him as soon as possible. Hopefully, we can all come to an understanding.”“Noted. Have a good day Mr. Lemuel.”“You too. Thank you for your time.”***Having retreated to the bedroom in anger, Inara stood with her back against the wall, her arms folded together across her chest.

Lemuel shut the door behind him and headed for his home office even though, in all honesty, what he really wanted to do was go back into the bedroom and comfort her by retracting the punishment.The agony with which she had thrown herself onto the bed had touched him but he had to force himself not to change his mind. He needed her to have ample time alone and think. He himself had some thinking to do.This whole thing had started with revenge where all he wanted after her accusation, was to make her life a living hell. But along the line somewhere, he had been searching for that vengeful feeling and it seemed to be fading.He shouldn’t care. He should just continue with making her life miserable and thank God that she even had a bratty attitude which would further allow him his goal. But it seemed like things had changed fast.Maybe it was because she wasn’t what he had thought she was. He had thought that she was this wild girl living in pretense under her parent’s roof with no consc

Inara had no idea that she had dozed off on the bed after tidying up the bedroom. She had put on the television, switched the channels to an action movie station just to keep her boredom off and mitigate the discomfort of her lock down. Then she had curled herself onto the bed where she watched the TV for a while and didn’t know when sleep overtook her.When the bedroom door swung open, the sound promptly stirred her to consciousness and she found Lemuel stepping inside. She turned onto her left side and hastily crawled off the bed, moving herself over to the wall with her back against it and watching nervously as he gave the room a once over, inspecting her work.“Spick and span. Nice job Nara. You can relax. Good nap?”“Yes sir.”“I hope you won’t throw that kind of fit again.”“No.”“That’s good to know, sweetheart. You can expect your lunch in about an hour or a little bit more. I’ll be outside at the pool with my lawyer. Have a fit again at your own risk.”With that parting shot,

Feedwell opened the door, allowing Nana to enter with a tray containing Inara’s lunch.Lemuel arranged one of the bedside table at the foot of the bed to allow her place the tray on it. Then they both thanked Feedwell and Nana who acknowledged their appreciation and left, giving them privacy.Lemuel leaned into Inara and deeply inhaled her scent deliberately, making her catch her breath. It always made her entire body hot with sexual excitement when he inhaled her like that and her cheeks flushed crimson.Her meal consisted of One hard-boiled egg, a cup of cottage cheese, five saltine crackers and a cup of coffee.“I’ll leave you to eat while I go get mine downstairs. I let Feedwell add the optional cup of coffee because you have been quite good.”Inara wished he would eat there with her. She had gotten used to eating around him. But at the same time, she thought it was better he left, since she’ll be having her meal standing up. She hated that she could not sit down. She always did.“

Having reached home, Inara was back to being grounded in the bedroom. For the rest of the day, all she did was sleep, wake up and watch movies. Then later, her dinner was brought up to her by Feedwell.She wondered if the other people in the house knew why she was spending all her time in the bedroom. It was so humiliating. Seated at the dressing table, she looked at the dinner Feedwell was placing before her and thoughtwell, it couldhave been worse.Her dinner consisted of two hot dogs, with no bun. The

In the morning, Inara woke up to Lemuel’s absence. She was used to waking up and not finding him. Her mind went back to last night and she recalled with pleasure how he had taken care of her. She was aware that he had left the music playing on her phone. But now, the room was silent.She sat up and saw her phone by the bedside table beside the bed lamp. She was sure that he had stopped the music and placed it there.Inara took a moment to appreciate the fact that she was feeling better and that he had found her when he did or she would have come down with cold. Another thing that lifted her spirits was that her punishment would be over by the end of the day.Inara got off the bed and heartily performed her morning ablutions on time to receive her breakfast, consisting of a one-ounce slice of cheddar cheese, five saltine crackers, a small apple and a cup of coffee. Feedwell had informed her that Lemuel had approved the optional coffee and she was happy to h

Lemuel was seated beside Inara, holding her close as she leaned into him at the deck of his Princess 72 Motor Yacht. They were both staring out into the large expanse of the lake with nothing but a meandering forest on each side of the water for miles.As the driver from the control room far at the front of the yacht, cruised the engine skillfully through the waters, they sat there on the seats at the tail of the yacht, enjoying the cool breeze and the sight of nature.Inara was feeling genuinely happy at the heightened sense of freedom especially after going through the grounding. This was serious relief and she planned not to get herself into any bad situation like that again.To her, Lemuel would have been a perfect guy without his temper. He had told her that day in the Di

Lemuel led her through the yacht’s living room, which was fitted with two long sets of white settees. The settees had several cushions in white and different shades of grey strewn across them and there was a matching white center table with a medium length wooden strip wrapped over the middle of it like a ribbon.They moved passed the dining table decorated with a bow of beautiful green and white flower neatly arranged atop the center. The dining table stood surrounded with four white chairs forming an L shape around one end while a white settee formed an L shape, surrounding the other end with about three embroidered grey cushions strewn over the settee.They ventured around inside and finally, he led her into the Master Cabin which stood bigger in comparison with the other cabins. It was a Master stater
