"Where were you earlier, my queen?" Dominus's face was hard, he appears to be greatly displeased by her disappearance.

"Yes, I went out for a bit," she closed the door and removed the strap of her sandals, walking barefoot on the carpet before sitting beside him.
"Yes, I know honey. What I wanted to know is where did you go?" his jaw clenched as millions of imagery crossed his mind.
She opened her bag and handed him a box, "Happy anniversary, sweetheart," she blushed.
She didn't like lying to him but she felt the lie is justified. Plus it is not entirely a lie, she did get him a tie.
