“Shit, bloody shoes,” Kieran swore, waking Carla with a start.

“Jesus, you scared the life out of me. How did you get in?”

“I took your door-key. You were in no fit state to worry about locking up, so I did it on the way out. Do you ever pick up after yourself? I nearly broke my neck on those ridiculous heels.”

“My house, I’ll leave my stuff where I want.”

“We’ll see about that. I wouldn’t be throwing out attitude if I were you. You have no idea how much trouble you’re in.”

Kieran climbed in beside her all the same, and wrapped himself around her. A sense of peace washed over Carla. She felt secure in his arms. Her earlier fear of rejection slipped away. She could take his punishment with pleasure, as long as he kept coming back to her.

When Carla woke, she was alone in the bed. For an awful moment, she was afraid she had dreamt he was there, but the sounds of dishes clattering in the kitchen soon reassured her. She groaned at the memory of the previous evening. What had come across her? She knew how hard life was for Cadence. She’d lost her career as a dancer, and her dreams, after her accident. At that moment Carla hated herself. It was a feeling she had once been so familiar with, but Kieran had helped her see past it all, and things had been going so well in the community. She had to go and dig another hole for herself. She picked up her phone and texted Cadence a heartfelt apology, asking if she could go and give it in person later. Carla wouldn’t blame Cadence if she told her to go to hell, but Carla felt she had to at least try.

Kieran seemed to be making much more noise in the kitchen than was strictly necessary. It was obvious he was mad as hell. She got up to face the music. Her mouth felt like she had eaten sandpaper and tasted of stale wine. After pulling on her dressing gown, she brushed her teeth. On her way out of the bedroom door Carla almost fell across her shoes. No wonder Kieran had walked on them, they were just inside the door. Oh well, it was just another crime to add to her already long list! Kieran hated how messy she was. He was forever telling her Jim’s kids were tidier than she was. She took a deep breath and joined him in the kitchen.

“Good morning,” Carla said, tentatively kissing his cheek.

“Not for long, sweetheart. You can go straight back to your bedroom, remove that robe and anything else you happen to be wearing, and kneel at the wall. I will deal with you when I finish cleaning your mess. Oh, place your paddle on the bed. No, better yet, place your hands above your head, and hold the paddle up. It will concentrate the mind on what’s coming.”

He left her waiting like that for twenty agonizing minutes. Her arms were exhausted and her knees were aching.
