Chapter 70: Getting Caught Part 3

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I ruined everything. I was terrible at lying. I- I- I didn't know what to do... I- I'm so sorry. Here. Take it. I don't deserve it." Ariana took off her ring and collar and slammed them against his chest, causing him to groan.

"No, no. Stop." Carter took the items from her and slipped the ring back onto her finger. He took her collar and fastened it back around her neck. "We're not ending this because of me being a dumbass. This is not your fault." He touched her chin and brought her gaze up to his. Her makeup was running down her face in streaks and her lips were swollen. "My poor sweet girl..."

"I- I'm sor- sorry." Ariana burst into tears again and he yanked her against himself, holding her head against his chest as he shushed her. "I made you look bad. I failed as a sub. I failed as a fianc饮 I failed as an administrator. I failed!" She burst out into tears and Carter began to gently rock her.
