An average twenty something, blonde

''Wait, so she's being punished for that? not anything else? Just mixing up four and fourteen?'' Tamara was slightly incredulous at the situation.

''As I said, for however vulgar it may have been, lewd behaviour is something only a fool wouldn't expect upon entering The Palates Pleasure. And i'd appreciate you not taking that dismissive tone! She has broken our rules and shall be punished. Do you want to join her in her punishment?''

''I-I'm a customer, you can't punish me!'' Tamara said her voice shaking as the woman towered over her

''Insolence can always be punished, Miss Fielding! And if you continue to act this way you shall also be punished for your insolence. Do I make myself clear?''The womans tone became increasingly stern as she spoke.

''Yes ma'am'' Tamara timidly responded

''Mistress, may this servant apologise to Miss Fielding?''

Tamaras attention was suddenly drawn to a blonde woman standing next to the imposing lady

The blonde was slightly taller than Tamara, yet, still only eye level with the ladies shoulders. She was of fairly average build, with a decent sized bust and moderate curves to her lower body. Her eyes were downcast, not making eye contact with either Tamara or the imposing lady.

''Yes, I think it is about time you did. Go on then Rebecca, what do you have to say?''The Imposing ladys tone had softened and she gently laid her palm on Rebeccas back.

''This servant would like to apologise to you, Miss Fielding. We here at The Palates Pleasure endeavour to provide our clients with whatever they may request of us. Due to my failures in my duties, this servant was unable to properly fulfill your request. As such, this servant offers herself to you, to do with as you see fit for the next two days''

''Very good Rebecca'' The imposing ladys tone had softened significantly and Tamara noticed she also had a satisfied smile on her face as she patted Rebecca on the back.

''Now, Miss Fielding, do you accept the terms of her apology?'' The lady was looking at Tamara again.

''Yes, I do, miss... uhmm... I'm sorry I don't know your name, miss''

''My employees refer to me as Mistress, customers may call me Ma'am. But you're welcome to also call me mistress if you like'' The Imposing ladies tone shifted to a smug one as she finished her sentence.

''Oh-okay, then, I accept the terms of Rebeccas apology, ma'am'' Tamara had to steady her voice as she spoke

''Good, now I'll leave you two to go about your business, should you need anything from us Rebecca will know who to call'' She began to turn away and then stopped ''Oh, how ignorant of me, Rebecca is in no state of dress to join you on your run, here, i'll even throw in a goodie bag''

The imposing lady snapped her fingers and suddenly Rebecca was dressed in much the same fashion as Tamara, comfortable shirt, leggings and running shoes. The biggest difference being that Rebecca had a fanny pack with The Palates Pleasure sown onto the side. That and the black chocker around her neck

''Now, off with you. I have to reduce myself to doing the work of a receptionist for a few days. Terribly dull''

Tamara was left bewildered as she stood there with Rebecca apparently 'hers' for the next two days. And this towering woman, who apparently could wield magic at her fingertips, refering to what goes on in The Palates Pleasure as 'Dull'.
