CREATED BY JUTOH - PLEASE REGISTER TO REMOVE THIS LINE Chapter 14 When Ron came back to the room he brought a battered tray with a pot of coffee, mismatched cups, cream, sugar and some pastries. He put it down on the small table, saw that Bess was already awake, and went over to rouse Shannon. She seemed to be awfully tired, and let out a startled little yelp when she came awake enough to realize that she was naked. “Get over it, female,” Ron growled at her as she frantically tried to cover herself with her hands. “Stand up.” He held a length of heavy chain up so that she could see it, along with a padlock. Shannon looked up at him almost fearfully for a moment, seemed to remember where she was and what she'd done last night, and then calmly stood up, facing Ron, her arms at her sides.
