Mindy takes the heat for peeping.

The door swung open and Mindy's heart felt like it was going to explode. She stood there, covering herself up with the towel self consciously and awaited the youngest member of the household. Things would be far worse if she got caught trying to hide or even worse yet if Amber's mom was caught with her. Besides, she would get a bonus if she took all the blame and Mrs. Devonshire got away. She wasn't thinking about the bonus at this moment, however. The delinquent maid was more worried about what sort of punishment she was about to suffer from the eighteen year old.

"What are you doing in my room?!" Amber shouted. Her nostrils were flared and her eyes shot daggers at the buxom blonde.

"I'm sorry Amber, I was watching you all and then you got alarmed and I panicked..." Mindy answered truthfully.

"Well, get out!" the young woman ordered, pointing to the door.

Cowed, Mindy made a sad march out the door followed by her boss.

"Everyone!" Amber called out downstairs, "It was just the maid! She was hiding in my room!"

"Naughty maid..." Jessi teased as she came up the stairs followed by the others.

"Maybe she just wanted to join in," Cheryl suggested, eying the maid's body. Mindy felt like she was about to be fed to the wolves. Her stomach churned anxiously as they lined up around her in the hallway, judging her.

"Well, I think she should be punished for spying on us," Kaitlyn added.

"I agree..." Amber said before snatching away Mindy's towel. Mindy covered herself as best as she could but the girls surround her and jostled her into Amber's room again.

"But... you just told me to get out...!" Mindy protested.

"I changed my mind," Amber replied calmly. She had something in mind. Mindy frowned, but let herself be taken in. She felt herself begin to panic again once inside. Alice was still in the closest, so anyone who bothered to check would find her. Mindy needed to keep the girls distracted with punishing her enough to prevent them from finding the elder Devonshire. The only worry Mindy had was what type of punishment she was about to get.

"On the bed," Amber ordered. Mindy climbed onto the queen sized bed. There was plenty of room for the others to surround her on all sides. "Tie her up!" Amber barked out to the squad. They stripped the sheets from the bed and used them to wrap around the bed posts and then around Mindy's wrists and feet until the maid lay splayed out with her arms up and her legs spread. She tested the bindings and found her limbs could barely move under the restraint. Mindy waited silently for her punishment to begin. "Not going to say anything?" Amber asked, acting disappointed by the silence.

"Please, I don't know what you're up to, but I won't tell anyone what I saw, just let me go..." Mindy begged.

Amber smirked, reveling in her dominance. "I know you're not going to tell, because you're on the clock, bitch!" she gloated, "You do what I say and you act like you're enjoying it! Got it?"

Mindy felt a quiver of excitement after hearing Amber's orders. She nodded back in acknowledgement.

"Geez, Amber, you could be like a dominatrix or something," Cheryl muttered approvingly.

Amber grinned back before turning her attention to the tied up maid. "So... your punishment for peeping where you shouldn't be peeping is..." she paced around, thinking, then suddenly stopped. "Blindness..."

Mindy squirmed in the bed, frantically trying to get loose, "No! You can't!"

"Hold her down!" Amber ordered.

"You sure are demanding tonight!" Jessi complained.

"It's still my birthday for another hour, just do as I say until then, ok?" Amber replied. The girls held Mindy down while the naked and bound girl trembled at the idea of being blinded. Amber crawled up on top of her and Mindy tried to sink into the mattress, tearing up with fear. Amber pulled off her top and sat over the maid. Mindy looked up curiously at the topless teen and flinched as the teen leaned forward. Amber giggled. She took her top and wrapped it around Mindy's eyes, blinding her.
