spanking her bottom, his stern voice chastising her over some misdemeanor and she would come to that image, the orgasms frenzied, leaving her sweaty and breathless.
    Things between her and Jeff were strained at best. He was spending more and more time with his brother and Shannon and the last time she had gone down there to see him, she’d smelled a strange smell and between that and the music, something had told her to just turn back and go home. She had made the decision then to break it off with him. Now that his brother was here, he could move in with him, considering he spent most of his time down there anyway. The only thing he needed her for was money and she realized when she received her last credit card statement that he had been shopping online again. She was maxed out and this time, it was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
    So maybe Sawyer’s spanking had done the trick after all . She banished that thought as soon as it materialized.
    At twenty minutes after seven, she parked the car and noticed that Andy’s truck was still there in the same parking spot it had been in all week. She climbed out and went inside, taking the stairs up to her apartment. When she slipped her key into the door, however, she found it already unlocked and when she pushed it open, she heard Jeff ’s voice. Sadly, he wasn’t alone.
    Rebecca walked inside and hung up her coat, pulling the chain on which Amelia’s ring hung out from beneath her sweater and closing her hand around it, mustering up all her courage. She then tucked it back behind her clothes and out of sight.
    “You’re home early,” Jeff said. He and Shannon had the refrigerator open and were apparently stealing bottles of beer.
    “It’s past seven, I’m late. What are you doing?” she asked, knowing full well.
    “We were out of beer downstairs.”
    “And the grocery store was too?”
    Jeff’s eyes narrowed. “Don’t be a bitch.”
    “We need to talk.”
    Shannon stood back and watched with a smirk on her face that turned Rebecca’s stomach.
    “About what?” Jeff asked. “Nothing to talk about the way I see it. If it’s the beer, fine,” he said. He held three bottles in each hand. As soon as he said it, he let them go and they crashed to the floor, glass bottles breaking, beer foaming everywhere. “I’ll leave them. Drop them, Shan.”
    “No way, I’m not wasting these,” Shannon said.
    “Jeff. We need to talk. Alone,” Rebecca said, knowing there wouldn’t be a good time.
    Shannon stepped over the spilled beer, barely holding back a laugh. “I’ll see you downstairs,” she said to Jeff. “Good luck.”
    With another dirty look in Rebecca’s direction, she left.
    “Why do you have to embarrass me like that, Bec?” he asked. “Now look what you made me do,” he said, stepping over the shattered glass.
    “What did you buy?” she asked. “My credit card is maxed out.”
    “Oh, that, I meant to mention it. We needed a few things.”
    “Who is ‘we’? Your brother and Shannon? Have they considered getting jobs? I’m not supporting them. It’s hard enough with you out of work and it’s going to stop now.”
    “Oh, it’s that again. I should have guessed it,” he said, taking an aggressive step toward her. “Money again. You think I haven’t tried to find work?”
    “When was the last time you went on an interview? Filled out a job application, even?”
    He narrowed his eyes and she folded her arms across her chest, her anger turning momentarily to fear. She thought of Sawyer, wishing he were there with her, but pushing that thought aside. She could do this alone. She was a big girl and just as she didn’t need a man spanking her, she didn’t need one to take care of her problems for her either. She just had to say it, get it over with. Jeff had never struck her before, but he had been acting so strange lately that a part of her worried he would do just that.
    Her mind went momentarily to that night with Sawyer again
