"Jaden, best check on Ruby," Jade suggested firmly.

Hurrying to the kitchen, Jaden found her clinging to the sink. Her face pale, her stomach emptied.

"I'm sorry, pet," Ruby said as he put his arms around her to keep her from falling. "There's too much power in the mansion. That old woman reeks of energy..." She shook her head. Wrong move, that didn't make anything feel better.

"What can I do, mistress?"

"If you can get me to my chambers, I'd like a bowl of chicken soup and some soda."

"And then?" Jaden asked concerned.

"And then, I'm sure we'll think of things to do. I must look a mess. My hair needs a good washing and I'd like a massage. Then there's one more thing."

"Yes, mistress?"

"Captian Chuck tells me that he thinks you'd make a great dom. I don't feel like being the mistress at the moment. I want to be the pet and have you care for me and play dom for awhile. Think you can handle that?"

She put her fingers over his lips, keeping him from speaking.

"Don't answer right away, love. Think about it on the way to my room."

* Tag Jaden, love, do what you want and have fun *
