I'm home first so I clean the kitchen and empty the dishwasher and start preparing dinner.
I have everything ready for her favourite Thai dish so I take a shower.
Her car pulls up just after 7.
I kiss her and hold her as she tells me of the drama of her work shift.
Today wasn't as bad as yesterday.
She only saw the obnoxious surgeon once today and he had been respectful.
We will wait a bit longer before we decide to take any action.
I take her coat and bag and hang them up.
She goes upstairs for a shower.
I flick the switch that allows me to slide the bookcase to reveal the basement door.
The basement is warm and comfortable and everything is ready.
I spend a minute choosing her outfit for the night.
I'm waiting for her with a towel as she comes out of the shower.
She studies me as I dry her.
Her eyes tell me everything I need to know.
She puts lotion on her skin.
Her flawless body glistens.
I kiss her whilst locking the metal collar carefully around her neck.
Then she holds me for support whilst she steps into her soft leather body harness.
I have to position the straps around her breasts.
As I pull upwards to close the adjustable straps on her shoulders, the thong is pulled tighter between her cheeks.
She stands on her tiptoes and tries to hide a grin.
It's a tight fit. But it won't rub or chafe.
I connect the leash and lead her all the way downstairs into the basement.
Once inside she instinctively gets on her hands and knees and looks up at me.
I point to the open cage.
She crawls over to it and I follow her still holding the leash.
She crawls in.
I gently position her feet to allow me to fully close the cage door.
There isn't room for her to turn around and release herself.
I go to leave but she whines very quietly.
I've forgotten something.
I find it in the third drawer.
I reach through the cage and carefully place the red ball gag in her mouth and strap it around her head.
She bites it and tries to move it with her tongue but can't.
She takes deep satisfied breaths through her nose as I stroke her hair.
I stand in the doorway looking at her.
She tries adjusting her position but it achieves nothing.
I turn the light off and close the bookcase.
And I put my feet up and see what's on television.
