That was a good question. “It’s not for me. I have a young lady with a stalker issue.”
The line was silent for a moment. Was he thinking, or had the line dropped? “Gabe?”
“I’m here. Just wondering what you’ve gotten yourself into, brother. We don’t have another Raia situation on our hands, do we?”
That was preposterous, and I was about to blurt out the obvious. But it was a good question, and there were similarities between Erik’s issue with his woman Raia when she first met him and her ex caused some problems that Thor, with the help of us, made go away.
“I guess you could say there are similarities. I have a YouTube gaming girl who is currently staying with me because her home is unsafe. She has an internet stalker who has scared her, and I believe this is not something that will go away on its own. Can you talk later, and I can go over the specifics?”
“Absolutely, say around three, and I will expect to meet this new Little of yours.”
“Middle.”
“I’m sorry, did you say Middle?”
“I did.” More dark chuckles and again I smiled, picturing my friend’s face, despite me being the brunt of his amusement.
“Well, well, aren’t you full of surprises? Later.” The line went dead, and I shook my head in amusement. Typical Gabe. I opened my email next and went through a swarm of accounts.
I logged off for my pre-lunch workout and to check on Shelby to see if she wanted to join me. Opening my office door, the sounds of gunfire assaulted me. My natural reaction was to duck and then realized it wasn’t real. Shelby must have activated the surround sound, which was pumping through the penthouse. What on earth was she doing? War couldn’t be appropriate for her. I covered my ears and marched to the games room.
I found Shelby busy blowing up dwellings and shooting people at rapid-fire. She was playing the newest Stealth Hunt game which wasn’t releasing until sometime next week. How had she gotten a pirate copy? Was what she was doing even legal?
I grabbed the master remote and shut everything down. Shelby, buried beneath her goggles, stood stupefied at the screen before attempting to restart it.
“Ahem, looking for something?”
Shelby whipped the goggles off. “Did you do that?”
“Yes, I did. What is the meaning of this, young lady? This is completely inappropriate for you.”
Shelby’s mouth dropped in shock. “Are you fucking kidding me?” She screeched like she was being murdered.
“Shelby, watch your tone. This is your only warning.”
“I will not!” She stamped her foot for emphasis.
“That’s it, you’ve been warned. To the bedroom and in the corner, naked. Go now!”
Shelby took off at a run down the hall and raced for the guest rooms, where no doubt she planned on locking herself in. I caught up with her and threw her over my shoulder. “You’re only making this harder on yourself, Shelby. The more you fight, the longer your punishment will go on.”
“Put me down,” she screamed. “You can’t spank me for doing my job.”
“Yes, I can, and I will.” I arrived at my room but kept her on my shoulder until I had my hairbrush firmly in hand. In one fell swoop, I sat down on the chair in the bedroom and slid her over my lap at the same time. Shelby fought like a little lion, but her strength was no match for me.
I swung a leg over hers and brought the brush down. It made a loud crack as it landed on her ass. Shelby howled and attempted to squirm out of my hold, trying to escape the blows. “You will be a good girl and take your punishment, Shelby.”
“No. I will not. You have no right to tell me what to play.”
“Yes.” I punctuated my words with a hard smack to her thighs. “I can.”
I was wholly unprepared for what she howled out next and when she said her safeword, “Red,” I immediately stopped. What just happened?
