The crackle of the leaves and twigs beneath his feet made him cringe. The more silent he tried to be the louder every sound seemed. Shaky hands fumbled through his pants pockets as he found his keys. Slipping inside he removed his shoes and took them in hand as he tip toed upstairs. Removing his clothes, he quickly climbed in bed, his breathing filled the room as he exhaled a breath of relief. He had made it back with no one the wiser.
One sleepy eye peeled itself open as he gazed at the clock, it was almost noon. Sudden panic struck him, he had forgotten to set his clock and was now several hours late in preparing his Masters breakfast. Jumping from bed he climbed into his clothes that were now a crumpled mess. Rushing downstairs he saw his Master sitting with coffee in hand and a book, sitting waiting impatiently.
"To me boy!" Dashing to Master Michael's side, Nathan knelt. His eyes down cast to hide his embarrassment. "I'm waiting boy. I do hope you have a good excuse for such behavior." said Master Michael with a tone of disappointment in his voice.
"I forgot to set my alarm Sir." replied Nathan.
"It would appear you have forgotten many things slave. One being your leaving without permission," snorted Master as he reached and took a handful of Nathan's sandy blonde hair in his hands and pulled back hard. Nathan swallowed hard as he lifted his head and stared into the dark brown eyes of his Master. "There is little you do that I am unaware slave. As always you will pay dearly for your transgression." Releasing Nathan's hair he shoved him aside. Tumbling to the floor, Nathan remained still as Master stood and walked away. Just as Nathan was about to sigh a breath of relief, Master stopped, turned to face him and with a deep and angry tone announced, "The dungeon one hour, you will have those balls and cock clean shaven! Is that clear boy?"
