“I have made about a hundred-cupcakes, and a huge chocolate cake,” Mia tells me while we eat dinner that night, just her and me. After we ate each other out, of course. I wanted to f**k her too, because I was insatiable like that when it came to her, but the woman in front of me

was hungry.

“Are you planning your escape by putting my guards into a sugar coma?” I joked, being in an unusually good mood.

“No,” she sounded sheepish, forcing me to look up from my dinner. “I was thinking maybe I can take it to an orphanage or a hospital and

donate it?”

“No.” The word flies out of my mouth before I even fully process what she was asking.

She frowns. “Your punishment included you uprooting me from my life and bringing me to this fancy cage. It didn’t involve anything about never getting to see the outside world again.”

“No,” I repeat.

She huffs, “You’re being unfair. It’s been three weeks since I am here and I have been a good prisoner. I haven’t tried escaping, I have made you dessert and I have not caused any problems for you. Don’t you think that deserves a reward?”

“Sure, ask me for a diamond set or something.”

“What am I going to do if a diamond set if I have no where to wear it, Alex?”

Even though I knew she made perfect sense, my answer still remained the same. When I first abducted here, the plan was to just get to know what she was up to when she recorded me- the real reason why- and then decide a plan of course for what to do with her

Now, however, things were different. The fact that she had recorded me had taken a complete backseat in my head, and her presence had consumed me in the past few weeks.

Stepping out meant facing reality. It also meant facing the possibility that this was a ploy for her to be able to plan her escape, or worse, to contact her boyfriend- which a paranoid part of me still believed existed.
