What if she crosses the line one day? Will she end up with a black eye?

That’s such bullshit, it’s abuse not punishment. — I’m sorry, but are you the parent? curiouscat.me/MantleMelinda/…

Hm. You’ve changed Marty.

Maybe the spark which they once had back when they were high schoolers would return if he took that stick out from up his ass. “Stress? Maybe if you spent more time with your family than being at work maybe you’d be less tense.”

“You’re not the only one who works around here Marty! I’m not the one spending thousand on high end cars and tailored suits. You need to stop blaming everyone else for (your) problems.”

Pretty much, I’ve raised my sister after our mom dipped. And I did the same with a few other Serpents. — I’m sorry to hear that but every parent has their own way of dealing with their children. Reginald needs strict punishm… curiouscat.me/MantleMelinda/…

“I don’t know Marty — It certainly isn’t me!” A flood of confusion washes over her features at the sight of her husband. “Wait — What? Why?”

“Apology accepted.” Giving a nod of her head, she’s pretty taken back by him admitting his wrong doings. Squinting her eyes would read over the documents. “We gives those boys way too much freedom with money.”

Do you still love your husband? — Of course I still love him, we just have our differences. curiouscat.me/MantleMelinda/…

Cue an eye roll in annoyance, she knew this would end up in an argument. “Alright, but just know I’m not getting involved when the boys come enraged about you freezing them out.”

“Then I’m all for you changing the account.” A sincere smile tugged on her brims, it has been a while since she had actually felt happiness. “Thank you...”

Nuzzling her face into the crook of his neck, taking in his scent. This is most physical contact they’ve had in a while. “I love you too. And I’m gonna hold you to that.”

“That - That sounds perfect, we deserve a night out.” Her hands would slowly curve around to his back with slowly caressing movements.

“I’ll be sure to dig it out of my closet just for you.” He was never the best at subtle hinting.

All she seems to be doing at the moment is working

Somebody give her a foot rub, it’s needed.

Very tough day.

She doesn’t keep a tracking device on her husband, she has no idea where the man is half the time.
