Driving away from Coastal Bakery, I called Richard to give him a heads up. I laughed when he answered, hell I needed a good laugh right now.
"Too late this time asshole," he chuckled, "hope your ass is in jail because I'm not coming to bail you out."
"Good morning Lee," I heard Lisa greet me in that sweet breathy voice of hers. Richard obviously had me on speaker phone.
"My apologies Lisa, for not calling sooner, but I've got some Blueberry muffins with me to make up for it."
"I'll start the coffee," she giggled.
Minutes later...
"Have a seat Lee, I'll pour you a cup. Richard should be down in a minute he's in the shower," she told me as she turned to get a cup from the cabinet. She was wearing a thin white robe cinched at the waist, looking beautiful as usual.
"Let me guess Ava problems again is the reason for this early morning visit," grumbled Richard entering the kitchen wearing just a towel.
"Yeah, how did you guess," I groaned, not really wanting to discuss it in front of Lisa.
Lisa just smiled at me sitting my coffee down in front of me, and turned and poured Richard a cup.
"Don't look surprised, I told you Lisa and I have no secrets, she's aware of the whole Ava problem," he grinned, "now talk I have meetings this morning."
By 7:15 a.m. I was out of there heading back home. I had told them both what had taken place the previous day, and my thoughts of saying the hell with it all and sending Ava back to Deer Creek. Richard told me if I sent her packing I would regret it until the day I died, and made suggestions about what I should do. At one point Lisa giggled, "Men, you over think everything. You want to fuck her, she wants you to fuck, just go ahead and fuck her, and make her your submissive."
AVA
Peeking through half-lidded eyes at my narrow windows, sunrise was just creeping up to start another day. My ass was sore and I wasn't about to roll over on my back.
I could see an envelope on the night stand leaning against the lamp that was turned on. My stomach was growling from hunger, so I eased up off the bed without letting my ass touch the mattress.
The note in the envelope read:
Ava,
As you can see the collar is back on, the sensors are set to where you can only go from your room to the bathroom. Food tray and water bottle on the dresser to hold you until I return. We will TALK later!
Stomach growling I stood at the dresser and gobbled down the banana he left along with the protein bar, which helped as I drank half the water. In the bathroom was another note laying next to a tube of salve, saying apply to ass after showering.
Standing under the warm water soaping up, I finally turned the hot water off, the cool water felt better, especially on my sore ass. Drying off with a soft fluffy towel and gently patting my ass dry, I applied a generous amount of the salve to my ass.
Returning to my room, I finished off the water and laid across the bed on my belly and thought about the evening before. Did I really want to escape and go to Chicago? Not really, I wasn't sure what the hell I really wanted! Closing my eyes I drifted off to sleep, my mind replaying the events of the evening before.

Entering the kitchen from the garage, I opened a bottle of water and sat down and checked my massages. None from Sandy sadly, but there were 2 other customers I needed to call back. Glancing at my watch I saw it was 8 o'clock. Time to check on Ava, but still not sure how I wanted to approach her, I decided first things first. Make sure she was okay and get her properly fed.
I chuckled to myself thinking how she could consume food, a banana and protein bar was not going to hold her long. Opening her door I saw she was laying across the bed, naked, her ass a rosy pink shade and her dark hair partially hiding her face.
Shaking the thoughts of last evening from my head, I gently shook her foot to awaken her. She groaned and slowly rolled over on her back, and yawned and stretched like a cat, her arms above her head, her chest arched up, her breasts slightly jiggling. Pointing her toes downward continuing to stretch out her legs, like she was doing with her arms, she moaned softly, "Wh...what....."
Taking several deep breathes, and letting them out slow to calm my racing heart, my eyes roamed over her sexy voluptuous body. My gym shorts suddenly got tighter, but I resisted the urge to jack off and coat her with cum from her twat to her tits.
"Get up Ava," I growled, "it's time for breakfast. Meet me in the kitchen in 15 minutes and don't be late."
AVA
A touch, then a shiver ran up my body making me turn over. Stretching I squeezed my eyes shut and yawned, feeling relaxed and rested. A rough voice forced me to open my eyes. "Wh..What..?"
It was Lee telling me to get downstairs for breakfast. From the look on his face, I was going to be his breakfast. Watching him walk out of my room, I realized I was naked, and best of all my ass didn't hurt. I guess the salve really worked.
Dreading the 'TALK' he mentioned in his note, I quickly ran a brush through my hair.
The sight of the collar around my neck angered me, but I knew it would do no good to protest. Since my ass felt better I slipped on a pair of pink bikini panties along with a pink silk robe and clinched it around my waist and headed downstairs.
Nervously approaching the kitchen, not sure what awaited me, I found Lee making pancakes, and smelled bacon and the aroma of coffee. My stomach growled loudly, making Lee turn and look at me.
"Have a seat and let's eat first, then talk," his voice sounded low and husky.
I was stuffing myself with my second stack of pancakes, when Lee finished eating and started cleaning up. We had not spoken a word to each other and I was nervous as a cat in a room full of rockers. He had his back to me as he cleaned up the kitchen, and I almost choked on a mouth full of pancakes when he calmly started talking.
"Ava, I've given it some thought and it's not working, if you wish to leave I'll give you enough money to go wherever you want to go."
Coughing and spitting up my food, that was the last thing I expected to come out of his mouth. Then he surprised me even more by saying as soon as he loaded the dishwasher he would remove my collar. My hand went to my collar, shock, fear, sadness, all conflicting thoughts raced through my head.
He never even turned around, when he had to have heard me cough and spit out my food. I'm free now, but why wasn't I jumping with joy? He's through with me, why the hell does that hurt so much? One part of my brain was saying 'grab your shit, take his money and go girl.' The other part of my brain was saying 'you dumb ass, go where, get on your damn knees and beg him to give you another chance.'
All the pancakes, bacon and orange juice sitting in my stomach, seemed to want to come back up! I was just about to jump up and run to the bathroom when he turned and walked to me as he dried his hands on a dish towel.
I just froze, my mouth hung open, as he finished drying his hands and quickly removed the collar. It felt like a part of myself was taken from me when the collar was laid on the table in front of me.

Maybe Richard and Lisa were right, especially Lisa. Ava was a natural submissive, if she felt safe and it was her decision she'll stay, if not maybe it's time to set her free and let the hard knocks of life teach her life's lessons.
