He muttered, “Sick bastard.”

I hung up the phone and smiled to myself.

KARA

It was late when I woke up to go to the restroom. I realized Damon wasn’t next to me. Listening carefully, I could hear Damon yelling from the direction of his office. I knew I shouldn’t go near there. It was an off-limits room I was not allowed in. But I couldn’t help myself.

I heard Damon mention my father’s name. I also heard him say I was no longer a virgin and what he continued on to say, including what tonight’s plan were. I was shocked hearing him talk about me in such a way. To him, I was nothing but a whore.

I thought we were growing to becoming a couple. Even as I turned to head back to my room, my gaze caught Susie at the landing of the stairs, watching me. It looked like she wanted to say something but I ran to my room.

Furious, I started throwing things around in my bedroom. I was pulling clothes off the hangers, just trying to release my anger and frustration. I seriously thought Damon cared about me. He was just using me because I could hear the pleasure in his voice when he told my father I wasn’t a virgin. The thought of knowing this disgusted me.

There was knock on my door. “Go to hell.”

Damon busted through my door and saw the damage I had done to the room. Remaining silent, he stalked toward me and hauled me over his shoulder. He had the nerve to slap my ass. We exited my room. I knew Damon was headed to the basement, and Susie was there to open the door. He popped my ass a second time, only harder.

“You’re a fucking asshole.”

He sat me down and he let me fall on my ass. I looked up at him in shock, watching Damon pull his belt off. I swallowed hard.

“Strip.”

I didn’t move and sat there continuing to look at him.

“Dove. Do not test my patience right fucking now. I suggest you follow my order.”

I picked myself up and crossed my arms over my chest. I dared him to do anything. Grabbing my arm, he led me to the bed. He tied my wrists together to the end of the bed. “I hate you, you fucking bastard.”

He moved over to the dresser and pulled out a ball gag and put it across my mouth so I couldn’t speak. He then took a knife and sliced my pajama pants. Then my thin top was in shreds. I was naked and bare. Damon swatted my ass hard ten times. I stayed silent as tears flowed down my cheeks.

“If you behave and be quiet, I will ungag you. If I hear one peep from you, I will gag you until morning.” I nodded, communicating I would obey. He took it out and sat on the bed next to me.

I was surprised to see him so calm when he sat down. “Dove, you don’t understand nor did you hear the entire conversation I had with your father.” I continued to listen to him before I spoke. “It’s my belief that your father is in debt to Jose for millions of dollars.”

I gasped.

“He specifically told me that since you were a virgin, he found a buyer for three million dollars. I became furious with Arturo and, yes, I told your father you were no longer a virgin. And I did say I was going to fuck your mouth.” He looked right into my eyes as he continued talking. “I was angry, Dove. And I just blurted that out in rage. You gave me your virginity so that makes you mine. I own you and you will learn to be obedient to me and my house. Sneaking around and eavesdropping will not be tolerated. Now you have to suffer the consequences of your actions. Do you understand?”

I nodded, then remembered I needed to vocalize that. “Yes, Master.”

“First, you will take another spanking and you will clean your room back to the way it was. Then I want you standing in the corner of my office until I tell you otherwise.”

I gulped and stared at Damon.

“Now, Kara!”

I jumped and cleared my throat. “I’m sorry, Master. After what that man said to me, I thought the worst. I thought all I was…. was a toy to use and abuse.”

Damon reached out to lift my chin, then he kissed my cheek. “I have always been honest and forthright. I knew something was up with your Father and Jose and I couldn’t stand the fact that their plans involved you. So, that night I took you for myself. And just so we are clear, I do have feelings for you. But you, my Dove, are still my possession. I will always own you. You have to accept this or you will never be able to sit for weeks at a time. Do you understand me, Dove?”

I nodded because words failed me.

“No, Dove. Words are needed so there will be no misunderstanding between us.”

“Yes, Master. I will obey and I will do all I can to show you I am worthy of your ownership.”
