Sue put the box back on the counter and gave him the stink eye as he walked out the door smiling.
As soon as they were gone she poured herself a cup of coffee and got Kelsey a glass of milk. Moving the donuts to the table the girls sat down, glad to have some time alone.
“So,” Sue asked, picking out a chocolate glazed and setting it on a napkin. “How’s it going? You look good Kelsey,” she observed, picking a piece off and savoring it slowly, “rested and healthy. Are you getting along all right? Are you happy?”
“Things are good, kind of quiet during the day, but that’s something I’m getting used to. I’m sorry I haven’t called you but I know Marcus is home all the time and truthfully I didn’t want him to answer the phone.”
“Why not?” Sue asked curious
“Well, I wouldn’t want him to tell Ty that I’m calling and have him think I’m bored with my new life. He’s so good to me. Every night after dinner he holds me on his lap and we watch something on TV, although truthfully I can barely keep my mind on what I’m watching when his hands are on me.”
“Have you done the nasty yet?” Sue asked smiling.
“No, not yet, but I’m sure it’s coming soon. How long can a man control himself? I know he gets hard every time he touches me. I feel guilty making him wait so long.”
“Are you sleeping together in the same bed?”
“I have my own room. It’s real pretty, but he told me today on the way over that he wants me to think about sharing his bed. I asked him if that would make it harder on him and he laughed. He said it couldn’t get any harder and he just wants to hold me at night until I’m ready.”
“Wow, he’s one of a kind. Most men would have had you naked as soon as you were in the door.”
‘Ty’s not like that, he knows about my past and he doesn’t want to scare me, but I have to do something. He took me to see his practice and he just hired a new receptionist. Her name is Shelly and she’s very pretty. The looks she was giving me behind his back were a warning, plain and simple. If she gets the chance she’ll make a move on him for sure,” Kelsey sighed, propping her chin on her hands.
“Have you been watching your movie, Kels? “ Sue asked, pushing what was left of her treat aside
“I watch it all the time and I think I have it down pat. What about you and Marcus? How’s that working out?”
“The man’s phenomenal,” Sue replied blushing. “If Ty’s even half the lover Marcus is you won’t even need that movie. We weren’t in the house ten minutes before we ended up in bed and every day is amazing.”
“What about the other stuff, the spanking thing?” Kelsey asked her face on fire.
“Well, it’s not too bad. I mean he can’t walk by me without slapping my ass, but I kinda like it. The first day he gave me what he considered an erotic spanking and I gotta tell you Kels, it blew my mind. Part of it might have been because I was so damn hotfor him, but let me tell you, that man wasn’t bragging. He was just stating the truth. He knows his way around a woman’s body like nobody I’ve ever met. All he has to do is look at me in a certain way and I’m already wet. It’s a little scary and it gives him a power over me I’m not happy about. I try not to think about what will happen at the end of our contract, but…Kels I’m not sure I could walk away at this point, what will it be like after a year?”
“Maybe in a year you won’t like him so much,” Kelsey suggested hopefully, taking her hand.
“Yeah,” Sue agreed, struggling to push that worry aside. “Maybe by then he will have turned into a real dickhead and I’ll be happy to get away from him, who knows? Want to see the house?”
“Sure,” Kelsey replied, wondering where she would be in a year.
While awed at the size and beauty of the lodge Kelsey, was perfectly happy with Ty’s house. It was smaller but comfortable and much easier to clean, a job she didn’t envy in the least. Sue took two donuts out of the box once they were back in the kitchen and put them in a baggie, hiding them in the back of a cupboard. After rinsing out their cups and putting them in the dishwasher she and Kelsey went out on the deck and made themselves comfortable. They could see the guys out on the lake and continued to talk freely.
“So,” began Ty dropping his line in the water. “What’s so important and private that we had to come out to the middle of the lake to discuss it?”
“I had to fire Mrs. Trowel,” Marcus informed him calmly. “And while that’s not a big deal in and of itself, the reason is of some concern.”
“Go on,” Ty told him.
“Susan left her copy of our contract on her dresser and Mrs. Trowel read it when she came in to clean. She was incredibly condescending and rude to Sue. I had to let her go.”
“What did she actually say to Susan?”
“She basically accused her of being a paid slut and asked if she should call her ‘Sugar’?” Marcus stated dryly.
“I’ll bet that went over well,” Ty snorted.
“Yeah, it was great; Red came unglued and called her a helmet head.”
“That’s really funny bro, because I’ve often thought the same thing,” Ty laughed.
