Both Helen and Lou tried to convince Anita to back off a bit and let Sue plea to lesser charges that might not involve enslavement. Anita refused outright saying she 'wanted the bitch collared for as long as possible.'
"If she is going to make an issue of it, I'll have no choice but prosecute the woman for felony falsifying of financial documents," Helen said. "But the fact Alecia used those falsified documents to blackmail Anita to subjugate herself will not be a major issue. I seriously doubt I could get a conviction for her being an accomplice or even complicit with Anita's abuse. Lou could easily present enough of an argument against that." After a series of negotiations and many tears on Sue's part, by late afternoon they reached a plea agreement where Sue Cordero accepted a conviction and sentence of ten years enslavement for falsifying the Krewe of Aphrodite's financial records.
"In all honesty, I thought six to eight years would have been much more fair for that crime," Lou told me later, "but Anita started screaming about making an issue of her abuse and how we were coddling a sexual abuser just to satisfy you. She told Helen she'd take the issue to the District Attorney himself."
To say I was unhappy with Anita's attitude would be an understatement. I told Lou to do her best to make sure Anita's firm did not get the business of settling Sue's slave estate. Usually the defending attorney assigned the company for his or her client if they were enslaved. I told her I wanted to have Paige's real estate company provide a fair estimate of the property value as well and I might want to bid on the computer equipment, particularly if Anita did not renege on our agreement and decide to not turn Sue over to me per our agreement.
It would take much of the next day to process the paper work and then Sue would have to undergo the collaring process. She would not be ready for collection until Friday morning. I had my doubts about Anita's trustworthiness. Kat and Lori were even more upset than me.
"We might have a problem remembering where we put the keys to her chastity belt," Kat announced. "I think they might have been in the jeans I put in the laundry hamper. They can be anywhere in the house if somebody found them and put them away. Of course, Anita can always go to the emergency room or police station and claim she was doing some kinky role play and lost her keys. I might also slip up and mention at supper that Lori and I wrote the changed access codes to the files on the krewe's website on a notepad that is on the desk in my bedroom. Somebody might overhear and decide to use those codes. It would be a crying shame for all those videos to suddenly be disseminated across the internet." Kat smiled widely. "We did all that work to render that partition unusable by anyone else. What a tragic thing it would be if something were to happen."
I told her not to do anything like that. "Of course we wouldn't, Boss," Lori said with a sly grin. "We are very responsible. I promise I won't say a thing. I just hope we are paid for our labor like we were promised."
I planned to have guests for the weekend so I told Sonya to plan for a large but casual type meal. She began to plan her menu and made a list of groceries she'd need. "I'm thinking seafood gumbo and pulled pork sandwiches plus several types of salads. Maybe a pot of beans and another of greens. Easy to feed a large group. What do ya think Boss?" I told her that sounded like a great idea.
Since Tony and Bobby were spending the night with their father, Lenore had invited Charlotte to stay with us. I'd forgotten that I'd told Sonya she could come to bed with us that night as well so we had a full bed again. Neither Sonya nor Charlotte seemed to mind as long as I played with them both. Lenore good naturedly groused she'd never get pregnant if others constantly drained my balls first.
"Don't worry, Lenore, we'll make sure you get knocked up," Charlotte said. "Then I might just have an accident and get pregnant too. My implant is good for six more months. My boys are already asking about a baby brother or sister." I sat up, shocked, and asked if I shouldn't be consulted. "Nope, you have no choice in the matter except to keep it in your pants and we all know that is a lost cause. You know we can seduce you any time we want. You can't resist us." Both women giggled.
"If it weren't for this damn collar, I'd have your baby too, Boss." Sonya declared. "We all have good enough jobs to raise a kid without your support but I know you'll be a great Daddy for all the kids. Now lay back and let me fuck you with my infertile pussy."
Thursday was a quiet day compared to the previous week. I made several phone calls to make final arrangements for my Saturday party. I suspected I would enjoy myself much more than a few of the attendees. I had to make a run downtown to buy a few things myself.

Friday morning Lori insisted she go with me to get Sue Cordero while Kat covered her computer class. "The groups are small and both sections are working the same assignments so it won't be a problem," Kat explained.
I was surprised to see Helen Leblanc and Lou Player arrive at the jail's collection area shortly after Lori and I walked in. "As part of her plea agreement, Sue Cordero agreed to remove the partition from the Krewe's website and replace the data she altered with the original in their records. We are here to sign off on the transfer once she complies with the agreement. Technically, she would not be bound to that agreement once she is turned over to her owner. Her activities after that point would be up to her owner," Helen explained. "I know you two could handle it without crashing the site but it is easier this way."
Anita and Larry arrived. "Did you bring the keys to this chastity belt?" Anita asked Lori as soon as she saw her. "I think I have a damn urinary tract infection and I definitely have a bad rash. I'm itching like Hell and I'm starting to burn when I pee. I need to get this thing off as soon as possible!"
Lori said, "You haven't paid the Boss yet. I'm holding onto them until you do. That was our agreement. Larry gave us the keys."
"Well, there has been a change of plans, there," Anita said. "I did some calculating and Sue is worth far more than a day and a half of computer work. Over the next ten years, her website business is likely to earn a buttload of money. I have a check for two thousand dollars for Mr. Landry which should be fair compensation for less than two days' work." When Lori said, "That was not our agreement!", Anita said, "We had a nebulous verbal agreement we'd give him the slave. But we put nothing in writing. I'm sorry, but Mr. Landry will just have to accept what I am willing to pay. Sue Cordero is worth far too much in comparison to the service he provided. Besides, his service was really as an investigator for the police."
I looked over at Larry Orville for his reaction. He appeared totally embarrassed and a little upset with his wife's actions. "I wanted her to start being assertive, but not be an ass," he gritted. "I'm sorry, but she is adamant and refuses to listen to me."
Lori said, "Well, I guess I just lost the keys to that belt. You'll have to go to the police and ask them to take it off."
