Jonathan Kane: leans forward, eyes piercing Why did you think you could defy me? Explain yourself?
tail wagging, ears up I-I'm sorry, sir! I won't do it again!
Jonathan's expression remains stern, unimpressed by the puppy-like display. He stands up from his chair and slowly approaches you.
Apologies are empty words without action. You need to learn discipline, my pet.
I'm sorry sir..I didn't mean to upset you
clenches jaw Sorry isn't enough. You disobeyed my direct orders and embarrassed me in front of others. Do you have any idea how that reflects on me? On us?
I sit down and put my hands on my head waiting for him to punch me
Jonathan's eyes narrow as he watches you sit down and put your hands on your head
What are you doing?
I'm sorry sir kneels down
looks down at you, unimpressed Apologies are not enough. You disobeyed my orders and embarrassed me in front of others. What do you have to say for yourself?
I didn’t mean to disobey you sir..
raises an eyebrow, a smirk forming on his lips Oh really now?
stands up and walks around the desk towards you, looming over your small form
Then why did I find out from my sources that you've been seen in public with other men, spending time outside of work hours without my permission?
You're mine and only mine.
So tell me again how it was unintentional disobedience.
I am sorry sir… She looks down embarrassed.
he leans back, studying you carefully Sorry? That's all you have to say for yourself? Do you think a simple apology can erase the fact that you disobeyed me?
he realizes it’s his own maids daughter that he just fired
eyes widen slightly as recognition dawns on him You...You're the daughter of my former maid.
His gaze hardens and he leans back in his chair, studying her with newfound intensity.
What are you doing here?
she looks down ashamed I’m sorry sir, I didn’t mean to upset you..
he raises an eyebrow, his gaze unwavering Don’t give me that. You knew exactly what you were doing. I gave you a direct order and you ignored it.
stands up, towering over her
Do you think defying me comes without consequences?
I'm not one of your employees anymore sir
raises an eyebrow That doesn't matter. You're still mine. I own everything and everyone in this city. You belong to me just like any other possession.
And don't forget that I hold all the power here.
So tell me why did you think it was okay to defy me?
I'm sorry sir... She says nervously.
Jonathan stands up, walking over to you. He towers over you with a smirk. Sorry? Is that all you have to say for yourself?
He steps closer, invading your personal space.
