emotion.
    “My favorite flower is a daisy.” I glance up at him, trying to see his reaction in the meager light the moon is offering through the window. “Have you seen a Brown Betty?” He doesn’t respond so I just go on, “The Black-Eyed Susan is the state flower of Maryland. It has thirteen petals. Thirteen is my lucky number.”
    My mind races, searching for something else I can tell him. “Do you like water?”
    “Yes,” he answers but this time the clipped tone is gone.
    “Me too,” I sigh thinking of the plantation. I can’t wait to go home. “I love how it brings life to the surrounding areas.”
    Silence engulfs us again but this time it’s not as tense. I close my eyes and keeping hold of Jack’s hand I drift between sleep and consciousness. I’ll never be able to get a good night’s rest in one of these places.

    In the early hours of the morning Jack gets up. I watch as he walks to the bathroom and seconds later he comes out dressed in his jeans.
    He walks to the door and he unlocks it, then he turns back to me. His eyes are filled with confusion when he asks, “Will that be all you require of me, Mistress Ryland?”
    “Yes, Jack,” I sigh heavily as I too get out of bed. I get dressed in the stupid outfit from the night before and then walk to Jack. I stand on my toes and press a soft kiss to his stubbled cheek. “I’ll see you soon, Jack.”
    I watch Jack walk away and then return to the room I share with Adam. When I walk in I find Adam sitting on the bed, his face in his hands.
    “Morning,” I say softly so I don’t give him a fright. He hates it when people sneak up on him. I did it once and I landed flat on my back with an angry Adam towering over me.
    He looks up, a world of exhaustion clouding his face.
    I crawl onto the bed behind him and pull at his arm until he stretches out next to me.
    I place my head on his shoulder. “Want to talk about it?”
    He shakes his head. Adam is not a talker. 
    We both just take comfort in the others presence until there is a knock at our door. Adam gets up and opens the door to a girl. She pushes in a trolley and the smell of coffee makes me get up.
    I have a cup of coffee while Adam enjoys the bacon and eggs. I usually have a healthy appetite but after a night like the one I just had, food is the farthest thing from my mind.
    After coffee I go to shower. When I’m done I go to stand in front of the window, looking out over the estate while Adam freshens up.
    The garden is really pretty. I wonder if it’s all Jack’s work. If he really loves gardening then I’ll make sure that he can continue his hobby back at the sanctuary.

    Chapter Five
     
    Jack~
    I’m still confused by Mistress Ryland as I make my way to the room where Mistress Claire is waiting in for me. She comes every Friday. Sometimes she’ll visit more than once a week but she’s a busy woman so that’s not often.
    I knock once and then I let myself in. I close the door behind me and before I can kneel Mistress Claire comes to me. “Ahh … there you are, my pet.” She kisses both my cheeks. She smiles up at me for a moment, as if I’m a precious possession.
    “I want to take you hard today. I’ve had an awful week.”
    I step out of my jeans before I start to undress Mistress Claire. I make sure to brush the back of my hands against her skin. She likes that. When we’re both naked I go to the bed and position my body over the length of it. I’m never on top. It’s one of the rules to always remind me that I’m a slave.
    Mistress Claire crawls on top of me. She takes hold of my cock, positions it at her opening and then slides over me.
    “Oh my, how I’ve missed your cock this week,” she murmurs as she starts to move up and down. She takes my hands and places them on her hips. “You know I love it when you touch me.”
    I hold her for a while and then she begs, “Dig your fingers in, my pet. I want to feel your strength on my body!”
    I do as she
