For a moment Veronica has no reaction, almost as if she didn't hear me. A slight feeling of worry begins to grow in the pit of my stomach but is relieved as she begins to speak. "Correct, except... I have been patient with you, but from now on there will be consequences when you don't address me properly. Is that clear?"
I wince. "Yes Ma'am. Sorry Ma'am."
"I know this is a very special moment for you, but I need you to pull yourself together." Her soothing tone instantly switches to being all business. She takes a step back but keeps her eyes locked onto mine. "Now, there's a few things I need to tell you before I go. I don't want to repeat myself so pay attention."
She's going to go? After all that just happened? Why does that bother me so much? "Yes Ma'am."
Veronica begins slowly pacing around me as she speaks. "I will be leaving town in the morning and will be returning in two weeks. Stand up." Veronica standing behind me, watches as I struggle to stand without the use of my hands. Once on my feet, she begins to unlock my handcuffs. She must not see me as a threat anymore, and rightfully so. My desire to harm her is surprisingly gone. "As you may recall, I wanted to take my time with you. While I am disappointed that couldn't happen, it's nice knowing I can break a man whenever I please." The handcuffs are removed and tossed onto the couch. "Floor." Veronica pats me on top of my head once it's clear to her I didn't Understand.
I feel embarrassed as I lower myself back onto my knees. "Sorry Ma'am."
"Still so much to teach you." She walks back around to the front of me. "As I was saying, I will be gone for a while, which I know will be hard for you. While you wait for my return, I can't have you forgetting about everything I've already done for you. For that reason, I have some new rules for you to follow. Coat." Once again I'm confused, but am quicker to figure out what she wants. I get up and briskly walk to her coat, grab it, and hand it to her. She takes it from me and starts searching for a pocket.
Veronica pauses and looks up at me. Her eyes flare, causing me to feel nervous. What does she want? What did I do wrong? She rolls her eyes then looks back at mine. "Floor."
"Shit. Sorry Ma'am." I start to kneel when she grabs and squeezes my ear, then painfully pulls my face to meet hers.
Sternly, she glares at me. "That kind of language from you is unacceptable. Do you understand me?"
My ear is throbbing, begging to be released. "I'm sorry Ma'am. I never meant to offend you. Please forgive me."
Veronica releases her grip and throws her hand up in frustration. "It's only been like 5 minutes since you admitted to belonging to me and you've already fucked up like three times." I drop to the floor as she goes back to searching the coat draped over her arm. "I promise you won't like what happens if you piss me off before my trip. As I was saying, I enjoy taking my time breaking a new sub, but having to rebreak them is a pain in the ass. Ah, here we go." She pulls a pen from her pocket and looks it over. "Because I don't want to have to rebreak you when I return, I have some simple rules for you to follow. Write this down." A pen drops in my lap. "First, no dating. I do not share my ... What are you doing?"
