HER HUSBAND’S BOSS : EPISODE 21 – 30
EPISODE 25
By Mary Ann Adams
*CAMILLE’S POV*
I groaned and managed to get off the bed. My leg shook and I started feeling dizzy.
On taking another step, I fell on the floor and lapsed into unconsciousness.

==========
My eyes opened to see Asher down at me. I look around and realized I am still in the bedroom and on the floor.
“Awake now?” He asked, not showing any sign of care.
I said nothing and just stared at him.
“Since you are. Go prepare my food. If you like, pretend to faint again and trust me when I tell you are going to come back to the land of the living when i flog you with belt” he said but I still wasn’t surprised.
He is Asher and he is capable of doing anything.
“Get up and stop sitting there like a log of wood” he said and I stood feeling really weak and dizzy too.
Is this the best he can do? Punish me with sex. He gave me the key to the kitchen and I collected it with shaky hands.
I left the room limping and went to the kitchen. I opened the door and sat down for a minute.
The hunger was gone as I was feeling pains in between my legs. Am going to go through this torture for two weeks straight!
I might just die before then. Standing up, I made to prepare his food before my time exceeds 30 minutes and Asher find me another punishment.

==================
The next day, I woke up on the bed. After preparing Asher’s food yesterday, I had ate some of it as I wasn’t sure Asher is going to allow me eat anything.
I served him the food and went to bed immediately and thankfully, he didn’t disturb me.
Waking up, I opened my eyes to see Asher dressing up for work. Is he going to lock the house on me today too.
He finished dressing up and faced me.
“Morning” I said softly.
He ignored and said. “Leave the room. I want to lock it”
“But why?”
“Are you questioning me?”
“Am sorry” I said. “I just..am sorry for leaving. I just wanted a break and I should have told you in the first place but I didn’t. Am sorry” I said as I felt the urge to strangle him.
The hell, I wasn’t sorry. What should I be sorry for. I just have to apologize maybe he is going to forgive me and just forget about This grounding and punishment of a thing.
“Did you apologize to make me happy. Am not sure you are sorry”
“Honestly, I am” I said pleading with my eyes.
“It’s fine” he finally said and then added. “But that doesn’t stop your punishment. Am going to leave the bedroom and kitchen open…..”
“That all I can do..I am off”
He isn’t still going to lock me in by locking the front door but that is still better. I can cope with that for now.
“Am off” He said and exit the room.
Immediately, he left, I went to prepare breakfast and after eating, I cleaned the house and took my bath.
I wore a yellow gown and retired to the room.
I laid on the bed facing the ceiling and my mind went to Annie and I started feeling guilty
She didn’t do anything wrong to me. I just started hating on her simply because I had a dream.
Annie and I have been friends since forever and I am willing to let go of our friendship just like that.
Annie can’t betray me. She can’t do that. But anytime I think about the dream, I start doubting.
What is she up to right now? Is she angry at me? Of course she would be. I left without her.
I called her a mon$ter. I treated her like she was a plague. She won’t want to have anything to do with me too again.
Annie is the only friend I have. She would always tell me everything about her, apart from her encounters with different guys, whenever she is going through emotional stress or anything is bothering her, Annie would always come to me and pour out everything.
Now, it my turn and I couldn’t even tell her. I didn’t trust her enough to tell her. Am a bad friend and I won’t deny it.
I don’t deserve to have friends who love and care for me.
I don’t deserve to be happy. What I truly deserve is Asher punishing me and me enduring it and been stuck with him forever.
That how my life have been planned out and am accepting it that way, not like I have a choice anyways.

======================
THREE DAYS LATER
=============••••=
It been three days and honestly, it feels like three years. Am always stuck at home all day and in the night, Asher torture me with sex.
Am used to it now and I don’t complain again. Yesterday, Asher didn’t lock the front door after much pleading, I told him I won’t go anywhere and would only stay in the compound if I intend to go out and he finally agreed.
I have put my sim back in my phone but I don’t even need it again.
I just abandoned it. Today, Asher didn’t lock the door.
HER HUSBAND’S BOSS : EPISODE 21 – 30
After taking my bath and doing my necessary chores, I retired to the compound with a novel.
Born in death by Nora Roberts. I started reading it yesterday. I saw it in my things. I had bought it a long time ago but didn’t have them to read it.
Am intrigued with the story already and couldn’t wait to read as everything unfolds.
I was engrossed in the book I didn’t notice someone enter.
I raised my head when I heard the footsteps and my eyes widened on seeing Annie.
“What..what are you doing here?” I asked stuttering.
“I came to see you duh!” She rolled her eyes. She is actually like all is fine when in actual fact it not.
“So what are you reading?” She asked looking at the book in my hand.
I blame Asher for not adding gate to the house. I wouldn’t have opened it for Annie and why wasn’t I inside when she came over.
I didn’t answer but she looked like she isn’t going to give up.
“Wow, you are finally reading the death series. Remember I recommended it to you….how is it so far?”
Again, I ignored her. She sighed and silence sets in but it didn’t last for long as Annie broke it.
“I..came back yesterday and decided to come see you. I don’t know if we are still friends but I still take you as a friend…”
She continued. “I don’t know what is wrong with you but I want you to know it would be fine. It might take time but everything will definitely be back in place very soon.”
I said nothing and just listened to her as my heart softened.
“I was really angry and sad when I came into the room and saw empty Alcoholic drinks. I was confused at first because the Camille have known for many years would never drink. She have never drank. Then why now?, I decided to wake you up and inquire what is going on but your face when you saw me was scary… it was like you saw me as a different person..like I did something really bad to you…Then you called me a monster…”
Annie stopped and sniffled. She continued.”all my life, have never been called that before..but it is coming from someone I call and take as my best friend. I was thinking maybe you didn’t know what you were doing..but you confirmed my fears and told me to stay away from you. I don’t know but that hurts really badly…I left to give you space but I wasn’t at rest since then..I kept thinking about you. About what could have made you do that but i didn’t even know. The next day, I came back to the room only to realize you already left. Camille..you have no idea how I felt…”
I looked at her and her eyes were filled with tears already.
I sniffled. She is making me really emotional. I made to talk but she beat me to it.
“Camille, you are like a family to me..have taken you as my blood sister and I sat down and thought about everything. Why you suddenly seem distanced. Why you are always thinking. Why…you suddenly start seeing me as a bad friend…”
“Annie…I…”
She interrupted me. “I know you are going through a lot. Going through sht I don’t know about. Going through things you don’t know how to open up about but Camille, I have just one request from you”
“Wh…what?” I stuttered.
“Can you trust me..? Can you trust me to at least tell me the truth please…? Can you not see me as a stranger. Can you see as that best friend you have known for long and can share anything with. Can you?”
I said nothing and she sniffed.
“I guess not. If you can’t, can you at least not push me away. Am fine if you don’t want to talk about it but I don’t want to lose you as a friend, please”
My lips shook as I stared at her. My best friend.
“Annie, I am sorry.i am really sorry…I don’t know what was wrong with me and I just took it out on you..am so sorry” I said as the tears finally poured.
“No..no.,no, don’t you dare cry!” She said and hugged me.
I did need the hug because it made me feel better. We both cried in each other arms.
“Annie” I called softly.
“Hmm?”
“Can I tell you a secret?”
