Song: Meg Meyers-Desire

Mekhi POV:

Scarlett and Meagan are spending the day together, so I go to 'Fire and Ice' to get some work done before heading to 'Club Temptation'. I try to make my rounds on all the clubs mainly to check to make sure everything is running smoothly.

It's a little after three when I hear my phone vibrating. I figured Scarlett would text earlier in the day but maybe Meagan is keeping her really busy. But the message is from Meagan not Scarlett.

Meagan: Mekhi some bitch is her with a gun, threaten Scarlett.

Meagan: She told me to stay...what do I do???

Mekhi: WTF where are you and yes stay put

Meagan: Still at mall by the Smoothie Shoppe

Mekhi: Be right there

Thankfully I was already in my car heading to the next club. The mall is only a few seconds away; well with the way I drive it's only a few seconds. I know she can handle herself, but who would be holding a gun to her and why? I pull up to the sidewalk and Meagan comes running over. "She went around back. I'm scared Mekhi."

I drive around back and jump out. I see her holding someone by her hair. Shit it's Amber one of my submissive, I should have known. Dammit.

Amber is drenched in blood and I know she is still alive, even though she is barely moving. I yell at Scarlett but she doesn't turn around as if she is in a trance. So I yell again.

"Scarlett stop!"

She looks over at me and releases Amber's hair. She is pissed off I see it in her eyes, I hear it in her voice, "You're little sub came looking for you."

"She is not my sub." I say flatly.

"Well she says otherwise; you take care of this or I will."

Amber is barely holding on. "I don't think she will cause any more trouble."

Which if she does, she is just plain stupid. Hell she signed the contract I gave her up; I gave her freedom back to her. I stare at Scarlett and I see the evil behind her dark eyes. "You're right she won't." Suddenly she reaches down and pulls her up by her neck and within second's snaps it. I can hear it crack from where I am standing. When she lets go of her she slides lifeless to the ground.

Shit, she can't kill them all. I take out my phone and call Zane for a clean up before anyone notices anything. "Hey need clean up at the mall behind the Smoothie Shoppe ASAP."

I turn to go after her but she is gone. Dammit. I go back to the car and grab a blanket to put over Amber so if anyone goes by they won't see her.

Amber was a beautiful girl with a very tortured past. Her father would beat the shit out of her for stupid shit. She actually hired me to kill him and I did. In return she needed me to hurt her. All those years with him in her head she got hooked on meth and other shit. When I got a hold of her she was addicted bad. I helped clean her out and focus on sex, submitting to me. She was clean all these years until I made her sign the contract releasing her from me. That broke her, not being with me caused her to start using again back on the crap. I saw the lines along her arm when I covered her up. And now, now she lays lifeless.

Atticus and Zane come to get her and I take off to find Scarlett. I saw the look in her eyes when she left and believe me no one wants to mess with her right now. I called and text but she won't reply. I call Meagan.

"Hey have you seen Scarlett?"

"She dropped me off at home. I figured she was going home."

"Thanks."

"Hey is everything alright?"

"It will be." I hang up the phone and drive home. However the car is not there. So I leave and drive all over town looking for the car she is in. Then I think of the one place, the apartment complex. I drive there and sure enough her car is there sitting in the garage.

When I get to the top, I don't see her. I'm looking everywhere when I hear a crash coming from the room. I walk in on her destroying the place.

"What the hell?" I yell.

She turns to look at me still fire in her eyes. "Did you use this shit on her?"

"Scarlett stop."

"Did you!" her voice is louder and irate. "You used this shit on her. It's gone all of it, gone." She starts yanking shit off the wall. Throwing stuff into a pile.

I go over and grab her from behind, holding her still but she fights back. "Let me go Mekhi; I'm warning you."

"Will you stop please?"

"Please!" she mocks me. "I won't ask again."

So I let her go. "Don't destroy this. It's all new I swear. I bought all new stuff just for you."

She takes something out of her pocket and pushes it into my chest. I hold it up, a leather choker with a letter 'M' with red rubies. "She was wearing that."

"It's not mine; she must have bought one."

"Either way."

I throw it in the fireplace for it to melt. The charm doesn't take long since it's not real.

She looks at me with still a glare in her eyes.

"Scarlett what can I do; what do you want me to do?"

"Kneel." She orders me.

"What?" I look at her like she has got to be kidding.

"I said kneel dammit; don't make me say it again. While you are at it take your clothes off then kneel."

I have never taken orders from anyone but I will do anything for her, so I obey her.

I watch her as she walks away and I slowly take off all my clothes to stand there naked before her.

"Do you have a safe word?" she asks.

"What?"

"I won't ask you again. Do you have a safe word?"

"Purple." I can't think of anything.

"Purple it is, now bend over on your hands and knees."

"You're kidding right?" I question her. But she is not joking; she is flat out serious. So I do it.

She walks over to me. She is wearing only her black lace bra with matching thongs and her black heels. I hear her walking over closer to me. Within seconds I feel pain radiate against my back. I hold still for my punishment. I know what this is. She walks around me and brings the cane down again, hard enough to redden the skin, but not to break through the flesh. She swings it three more times then grabs me by my hair. I try to reach for her but she stops me.

"Don't." She jerks me over to the bed. "Lie down and face up."

I do and no sooner than I do she is cuffing me. Then she gags me so I can't talk. I watch as she grabs a flogger and brings it back over. She wants me to feel the pain. I don't count how many times she uses it before dropping it and straddling me.

She rides me hard and she knows that I'm fixing to go so she tortures me by getting off. She waits what seems like forever before coming back over. I know this game I have done it a million times. It's torture to be right on the edge and then being forced not to go. She has ice in her hand and rubs it along my hot skin from the beating. Then gets another piece and rubs in along my nipple before bending down and sucking so hard that I swear she seeks blood.

I'm still hard and she flashes a wicked smile before getting back on top of me, this time she finishes me off. She rises up and stares down at me, seeing inside my soul.

"I own you." She holds up her hand showing me the ring for me to see as if I had forgotten. "And you own me. I won't let anyone fuck up what we have. Don't be mad at me for killing her or that other bitch. I will do it again and if you ever look at me again the way you did earlier, I will be harsher on your ass do you understand me?"

I nod yes.

She reaches down and takes off the gage. "Tell me."

"Yes ma'am."

"Good don't ever tell me to stop, because if I stop that means I no longer care." She reaches over and uncuffs me, and falls into my arms.

"I'm sorry."

She doesn't say anything.

"Babe tell me what you need."

"I need you to punish me."
