BOUND BY OWNERSHIP

At first Emma thought maybe Robert had lost his mind or was going crazy but the sound and deep voice of his driver made her know he was serious about working for him and providing everything he needs. The driver dragged Emma outside without allowing her to utter a word.

Emma looked around and for a second, she imagined turning around and taking to her heels once again. “I could go to Sharon’s place, hide out there, get some money and leave the town. That should work, I just have to…….” she was lost in thought

“Don’t even think about it.” the driver said frowning his face at Emma. He glares at her like he reads her mind or something.

“Get in, directions to your house.” he said

Feeling disappointed, she got into the car. He banged the door getting into the driver’s seat. Just as she was about to open the door and make a run for it, he turned on the central lock.

“Like I said, don’t even think about it at all.” he said again. His voice was really cold enough to make anyone scared.

“You are lucky I wasn’t ordered to harm you, else I would make you behave yourself now. You belong to Mr Liam, you are his commodity now. You can’t escape unless he says, so get that to your head and don’t misbehave” he said with an intimidating voiced

Without saying one more word, he ignites the engine and drove off. Emma ignored the crazy voice in her head sounding to her ears to give him wrong directions or call for help. But the driver was right, Emma belongs to him now. She have to accept her fate.”

After one hour, she got back to Robert’s house with her belongings. Her phone was seized and she had no means of contacting anyone. Emma will be worried, she might actually think she is missing and start searching for her.

The guest room was very big and bigger than her former room. She placed her things down deciding to shower. The door knob clicked and she quickly buttoned her shirt back. She haven’t removed her work outfit yet.

“Don’t you know how to knock?” Emma yelled at him, Robert walked towards her obviously annoyed.

“This is my house, I can come in whenever I want.” he replied

“What do you want?” she asked angrily

“I just wanted to check if you needed anything.” he said calmly

“I don’t, but please tell me what you want me to do for you daily and for how long so I can leave here!” she said

“I told you already. Why do I need to have three people doing different jobs when I have you, you are going to be anything I want.” she took a deep breath

“Well, I need to go take a bath. Kindly excuse me now.” she said looking away

“Excuse you? Why?” he asked making me choke.

“Because I want to take my bath. Naked!” she emphasized so he will understand.

“Maybe you didn’t quite understand me, I own you until you have paid me off so with that being said, I command you to undress now in my presence without any hesitation” he said in a very harsh manner.

Emma face falls at his new demand. She held the hem of her shirt with trembling hands. The only time a man has ever since her nakedness was in college when she had sex and Robert, her one night stand but apart from that, no one else. Emma former employers all tried to have sex with her but none of them could ever succeed, one of the major reasons why she would always get fired.

“I- I can’t Mr Liam.” she said unable to speak those words properly.

“I didn’t ask you if you can or can’t, I said you should do it. I own you now or have you forgotten?” he asked boldly clearly enjoying this.

“Well, you own me to work for you so I can pay off my debt, not to be your personal stripper.”

“Like I said, you must do anything I want or need so Emma you can be anything I want.” he licked his lips seductively.

Then immediately, a plan came into Emma’s head. Feeling a bit more daring than usual, she removed her shirt and walk towards him. Robert’s eyes twinkled in confusion clearly surprised at her actions. He was a bit taller than Emma so she had to raise herself to reach his height. Emma pressed her lips against Robert’s lips softly, kissing him passionately, trying to get her clothes without letting him know. The moment she realized that he was lost in the feeling and can’t ignore the strong desire, Emma grabbed her clothes quickly, turned around, ran into the bathroom and locked the door from the inside.

“Emma!” he yelled clearly upset.

“Well, you aren’t going to stay in the bathroom forever, are you?” he said raising his voice, Emma secure the lock taking off her clothes and stepping into the shower.

Robert placed his fingertips over his lips where Emma’s lips touched just a few moments ago. He wasn’t angry that she didn’t want to strip for him, in fact he didn’t want her to. He just wanted to annoy her a little. Robert was furious at the fact that she outsmarted me. No one outsmarts Robert, he is always one step ahead so he must ensure that it never happens again.

Robert’s phone started ringing, he checked the ID and it is the reason for all his problems, the reason why he had sex with Emma in the first place. A one night stand to forget all his problems. He ignored the call and decided to call her back tomorrow, he didn’t want any of her troubles this night. He ordered the maids to prepare a three-course meal waiting for Emma to leave the bathroom.

“Half an hour later, I am sure she must be dressed by now.” he said to himself

“Rio….” he called out to his bodyguard. “Get Miss Byrant here, tell her we are having dinner.” he instructed. The bodyguard nodded his head respectfully and disappear.

“Excuse me sir, she refused to come downstairs, she said, she is not hungry.” Rio responded

“Why that? I guess I will have to go up there and make her come then.” Robert said as he was standing up

“No sir, she said if you come to her room you will regret it and she will jump through the window” he looked a bit shaken after saying it.

“What! I will regret it? I am going to show that girl exactly who the boss is, in this house.” he roared furiously.
