"W..Woah the penthouse?" I can't hide the shocked tone in my voice. "Uh huh.." he answers, then opens the door, climbing out of the car. He bends down and reaches his hand out, "Come." He says in his dominant tone. Nervously, I take his hand and get out of the car, trying not to trip as I do.
We walk in the front doors of the beautiful apartment complex, and all I can do is look around, following Austin as I do. "Wow...this place is gorgeous.." he looks down at me and smirks, "Oh trust me, you haven't seen anything yet." He walks over to the elevator, and I walk closely behind him. We step in, then he presses the top button. "Wait..what about your body guard...well driver..." I ask curiously. "He'll come later, he went to fetch some clothing for you." - This...this is too much...way too much - I think to myself, but I dare not say it out loud, not wanting to offend Austin's unnecessary kindness.
A few moments later, the elevator dinged, and its doors opened. Right when they opened, they lead right into his penthouse. I look around, the floors are made out of black and white marbled tile, the counters are all black marble, and almost all the future I see in the living room is white. It was any modern bachelors dream, very chic yet masculine at the same time. "Woah...." I mummer. Austin laughs, "I'm going to take that as a complement." He jokes. "There is an extra room connected to mine by a door" he leads me into a huge hallway, walking me into his bedroom opening the door inside, showing me the connecting room.
"Why can't I just stay in the one across the hall?" I ask curiously. Immediately, his body seems to tense, and stutters "N..No, I'm sorry... no one can go in there, except me.." you can tell in his voice that he is hiding something. Being as curious I am, I decide that somehow I'll find out what he's hiding in there - What if its like his sick wife or girlfriend or something? Or what if its ... - my thoughts are interrupted. "Jade." He says sternly. "Did you just hear me?" I turn red, feeling quite embarrassed, "No...um I'm so sorry, may you please repeat that?" Rolling his eyes, he reluctantly repeats himself. "You need to get some rest. I'm going to go out in 30 minutes, so I expect you to be showered and asleep before I am gone."
I nod, smile then enter my room, closing the door behind me - Gosh he's controlling - I shake my head, listening for his footsteps to make sure hes gone. As soon as I hear him leave, "Damn him. Damn him for acting as if he's hiding something! Damn me for being so freaking curious!" I mumble to myself. "I need to find out what's in that room, it will literally kill me if I dont find out..." I smile and come up with the perfect plan. - I'll just pretend to be asleep and once he's gone, I will go and just...take a peak - I smile, once more, at what I thought was a clever plan, then walk over to the restroom to begin showering. As I'm showering, I hear someone enter the room, "Hey Jade, here are some pajamas and a robe." He shouts "Thanks." I say in the sweetest voice possible, then I hear his footsteps leave the room, closing the door after.
Austin comes in to check on me once I was in bed. "Alright, I'll be going now, but I'll be back in about 10 or 15 minutes." He smirks "If you need anything at all just call me...I already put my number in your phone" he winks at me then leaves. - What!? He went into my phone? When the hell did he do this? - my mind races, but I quickly snap back and remember my plan. I hear the front door slam shut. "Ok, Jade, you only have 10 minutes to take...a quick peak, then you have to come back to bed as quick as possible." I mutter to myself. I get out of bed, and wrap myself in the silky mint colored robe he left me, that matched my pajamas. Tippy toeing out of my room, into his, then out into the hall, I look around to make sure there was no one around. Of course there wasnt, but I just wanted to make sure. I walk across the hallway, standing in front of the door. I twist the knob and give it a small push, but it doesnt open, so I try it one more time, again it won't open. Then, I see why, its locked. "Of freaking course" I rub my forehead with my hand, I look around for places he could be hiding the key - HIS ROOM! - I walk back to his room, moving stuff trying to find the key, but placing them back where they were.
Finally, after 2 minutes of searching, I find the key underneath the side of his mattress. I rush back to the mysterious room, and put the the key in the lock, then twisting it. Taking a deep breath, I turn the knob, pushing it open. I didnt find a sick wife or girlfriend...I didnt find anything I thought I would. The room was a dark blackish red color, with dim lights on the walls creating an eerie, nerve wreaking atmosphere. My eyes adjust to the dimness, and I enter the room, looking around I see one wall that has whips, floggers, belts, and ropes hanging from it on hooks. On another, I see chains with handcuffs attached to the ends. I walk further into the room, intrigued by everything I see, I walk over to the large bed covered with dark blackish red sheets. "Woah..." I say astonished. I sit on the bed and notice it has cuffs on each corner attached to long chains, and the nightstand beside it has an eye mask, a blindfold, a gag, and some speakers.
I guess I stayed in there a little longer than I planned because, then I heard the front door open then close. "Fuck..." I stand and try to run out of the door, but then Austin appears in the doorway, looking down at me intimidatingly.
