Patrick looked lovingly at the beautiful girl in his basement, her good looks not even blemished by the effective gag that covered the lower half of her face. In fact, the gag served to accentuate Ice's mesmerizing eyes.<br/><br/>"Whoa there," he said as the girl tried to stand up and do Lord knows what. "Don't fall."<br/><br/>Patrick steadied her then sat her back down. He crouched so they were eye-to-eye.<br/><br/>"It's OK. Don't cry. I know this is an unconventional first date but in time you will understand why it had to go this way."<br/><br/>Patrick reached over and brushed her hair away from her face. "You looked great tonight. You were extra pretty."<br/><br/>Patrick went to the box and started pulling out items as he continued to talk.<br/><br/>"You always rejected my advances but I'm not even mad about that anymore," Patrick said as he held a length of chain and padlocks.<br/><br/>"You're here now, so all is forgiven. You just didn't know what was good for you. And I can't really blame you for that."<br/><br/>Patrick looped chain around her taped ankles, connecting the ends to a ring that was pounded into the floor, about six feet from the chair. The chain was about 10 feet in length.<br/><br/>Patrick used padlocks to connect the chain ends to the ring.<br/><br/>"I know you want to talk, Ice. Right? But there will be plenty time for talk later."<br/><br/>With that, Patrick produced a leather collar, which he fixed around her neck. Another chain was attached to the collar. The chain was also about 10 feet long and Patrick connected those ends to another ring opposite the first.<br/><br/>When he was done, the girl was cuffed, taped and gagged, plus she was connected by chains to two separate rings in the floor.<br/><br/>"I'll bring the cot down soon so you can get some beauty rest. Not that you need it."<br/><br/>He smiled and kissed her forehead.
