direction.
    “I don’t know. Isn’t the kneeling enough?”
Jake looked unsure, and Jonathan had to convince him one way or
another.
    “Jake, I don’t tell you what to do with your
sub. Don’t tell me what to do with mine. She’s starting to cry
again, not because she has been kneeling all this time, but because
she has wronged me and is upset with herself. She won’t be content
again until I discipline her. That might be TMI for you, but she wants this, and she needs this. That’s all I am going
to say about it.”
    Jake stood and extended his hand. Jonathan
followed accepting it, and then he was beyond surprised when Jake
pulled him into a big bear hug. “Thank you for taking such good
care of my sister, and thank you for standing up for me at my
wedding. I love you like a brother. Always have and always
will.”
    Jake pulled away and chuckled as Jonathan
stood there, dumbfounded by his best friend’s honesty and outpour
of emotion. That wasn’t like him at all. At least not until his new
wife got her hooks into his heart. He was a better man for it, and
since Jake had said it, Jonathan felt okay responding through his
choked emotions. “I feel the same way man, I love you too.”
    “I’m going home to make love to my beautiful
wife. Playroom’s all yours. I trust you. See you tomorrow.” He
paused and looked toward Roxi. “May I say goodnight to my
sister?”
    Jonathan nodded and motioned toward the
women on the floor. “Quickly.”
    He watched as Jake knelt at her level and
kissed her on top of the head. “I love you, sis. We’ll talk
tomorrow.”

 
     
     
Chapter Eight
     
    Roxi’s back and legs hurt and her knees were
sore from the hours of enduring her punishment on the hardwood
flooring, but halfway through, she realized it wasn’t enough. She
should never have done what she did by using his phone without
permission, and she definitely shouldn’t have invited Linda over.
It wasn’t her decision to make whether he went out for the evening
or not. Her heart ached for disappointing him. The one man she’d
loved all of her life. Regardless of whom she was with or where she
lived, Jonathan would always be a huge part of her, and she’d love
him until the day she died.
    Her chest hurt so much with the pain that
she’d failed her Dom, it overwhelmed her. She needed him soon. She
hadn’t realized she was wailing away like she had been until Jake
and Kristy pounded on the door. They must have gone across the hall
to Jake’s apartment to get the spare key, because minutes later
they came barreling in the door.
    Once inside, Kristy dropped to her knees and
tried to console her and it just made things worse. Jake probably
knew better because she was kneeling in submission. He stood back
while Kristy made every attempt to calm her. After a short while he
ordered his wife to come sit by his side. Roxi heard someone get up
and go to the bedroom at one point, and then heard Jake yelling,
but she couldn’t hear the conversation.
    Kristy’s voice filled the room. “I’m not
sure what’s going on Roxi, but if anything’s wrong, please tell me.
I’ll take your silence to mean you’re all right though.” Jake was
most likely on the phone since Kristy remained on the couch. Roxi
made sure to stay still and not move an inch. “Last chance, if
there’s something wrong, tell me before Jake returns.” Again she
remained still.
    What seemed like hours passed, and Jonathan
finally showed up. Her anxiety peaked at the thought that he might
blow past her and pay her no mind, but that worry was over nothing.
He stopped in front of her and calmed her just enough to try and
hold on until she got what she needed.
    It took every ounce of strength to hold it
together, but she had to for Him . Her heart hurt, her knees
and back were in such pain almost to the point of numbness, and her
mind was racing all over the place. She wanted to scream until her
throat bled, but she needed to be still and quiet. Pain
