CHAPTER 5

Emily has kept her word. Matthew has seen her taxi leave for the airport early in the morning and as he stands by the door ready to know, he wonders idly if she has somehow managed to let something slip before she left. When Amanda opens the door, he can see several walls go up before his very eyes. Emily was right- Amanda is heavily guarded, and it pains him to think that he has somehow added to that.

“Can I help you?” she asks brusquely and he has the urge to take her across the knee right there on her doorstep.

“May I come inside?” he asks coolly, ignoring her tone. She looks him up and down and notes the subtle scent of his aftershave and how much her stupid body is reacting to just seeing him here. He completely ghosted on her last night and then Emily had disappeared by morning. It felt almost as though they were tag-teaming each other and that is not a visual she wants in her head.

“Well?” he asks again when she doesn’t answer and she steps to the side reluctantly letting him in. She closes the door and stands there leaning against it, watching him as his massive frame crosses the room and stops by the kitchen counter. He turns around as though realizing for the first time that she hasn’t been following him. He stands there, quietly observing her as her back desperately clings to the door, as though her soul is using her body to block the fact that it is tunneling a hole into the door, in an attempt to escape.

Her shoulders are far too rigid and his jaw flexes as he watches her trying to decide whether to not to run away from him. It pisses him off about as much as it hurt him.

“Do you have to work today?” He asks, removing his jacket slowly, and resting it on the counter. He notes that there is no air condition on in the room but there a single oscillating fan struggling to keep the room cool. She doesn’t respond. Her eyes remain fixed on him as he rolls up his cuffs before walking back into the living room and taking a seat on the couch, close to the fan. Every nerve in his body wants to make her sit. To make her relax and trust him the way she had when they were kids, but he knows he has lost the trust, years ago and if Demarco has taught him nothing, he has certainly made it abundantly clear that the most important thing in a D/s relationship is the element of trust. His lack of response is slowly starting to grate on his patience, as he pulls the top button on his shirt open. She walks into the living room but instead of walking towards him, she walks over to the windows and opens them to let fresh air in.

“Thank you.” He says, his eyes never leaving her as she settles into the seat across from him.
