There was a knock on the Master's door. "You!" Cherry hears Master growls.
It's the same boy who caught her eye at Thanksgiving and for once wasn't concerned about what Master was doing. He would have to let her go at some point, right?
He couldn't keep her here. Whatever happened, she would still try to be on his good side.
Thanksgiving. Her heart was starting to pound now.
Maybe he was here to rescue? Get a hold of yourself, Cherry scolds herself. This isn't a fairytale.
"Get out of here!" Master tries to push him out.
"Where is she?"
"Where is who?"
"Don't play dumb with me, Dayton. Where is the girl? You're keeping her here against her will, aren't you?"
"You need to leave now, Jack!" Master pushes him out and locks the door.
"I'll call the cops!"
"If you do, you'll regret it. Remember I know your secrets, too," Master hisses, and Jack runs off.
He finds Cherry and pulls her up. "Don't ever do that again," Master warns.
"But- I didn't do anything."
"You don't think I don't know what you were hoping. You're never leaving, Cherry! You're mine!" Master growls and yanks Cherry's arm.
Cherry lets out a yelp. "I- I'm sorry, Master. Or should I say, Dayton?"
"Never address me as that. I told you you would address me as Master. Don't screw this up, Cherry."
"I- I won't. I'm sorry."
Master sighs. "I'm sorry, did I hurt you? I'll go get you some ice.
While he's looking for ice, Cherry looks around and finds a few interesting books.
"You like to read, huh?"
"I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have touched-"
Master puts his finger to his lips and gently takes Cherry's wrist and puts ice on it. "Shh. It's okay. I'll have to get you some more books. You'll need to have a hobby while you're here. You're not going anywhere, Cherry. I mean it, you're mine forever."
Tears run down Cherry's cheeks, and Master reaches up and wipes them.
