He restrains her

Frank left Megan alone while he got ready, thinking over whether to send her home or keep her. If he was going to keep her the rest of the day, the cage was insufficient restraint, and he certainly didn't want her wandering around the house exploring. She seemed broken and compliant, but he hadn't lived as long as he had by taking unnecessary chances.

There were advantages to having her at the house, at least until Marisol had paid a visit. Megan's friend looked like a tasty piece, and since the two of them had shared a man at least once, she'd probably be fun. He might not even have to drug her, he chuckled, although he certainly would.

Weighing the pros and cons, Frank decided to keep Megan restrained while he was gone. He readied a few things and went back to find her. She was still sitting on the floor and looked up happily when he entered the room.

"Marisol will be here! She's really excited about it! See what she sent!" she bubbled, handing Frank her phone.

"Tell him I can't wait!!!!!" was the message, accompanied by a picture.

Frank smiled and handed the phone back before gesturing to Megan to follow.

"You can stay until she gets here. But not in the cage," he told her as she crawled after him. He led her to a bathroom, where he had placed a blanket and pillows on the floor, along with a dish of food and another of water. He snapped a cuff on her leg, attaching the other end to some plumbing. There was enough slack to allow her to use the toilet, but not much more. She squatted, looking up at him with adoring gratitude.

"Thank you...thank you so much Signore...you are so good to me..." she whimpered happily as he closed the door and left.
