Chapter Eleven

Kenzie

Papi led her by the hand, showing her his quaint, two-story home. It was situated in one of the nicer and quieter suburbs. The outside was reminiscent of a cottage in the woods, complete with window boxes brimming with gorgeous flourishing flowers of all types and colors. The front lawn was perfectly groomed and landscaped to add to the cottage appeal despite being in the city.

Inside was a shock to Kenzie. She’d expected a bit of a bachelor pad look, but instead it was warm and inviting. The living room had a fireplace as the center attraction with a soft, furry rug in front of it, colored different shades of pink and gray. A gray couch and loveseat surrounded the rug and were scattered with pink pillows of different shades. A television was mounted above the fireplace, with gaming consoles and controllers set up on the mantel, ready to use. The outer edges of the room were obviously play areas with toy boxes and a slate coffee table set up with coloring supplies, pink and gray bean bags in three corners and even a pink doll house.

The look called to her, as pink and gray were her favorite colors. It was almost as if the room was hugging her, welcoming her, and letting her know this is where she belonged. The warmth in her chest bloomed more as she was led from room to room, each one reflecting everything she ever thought a home should be.

Part of her wondered if it could really be a coincidence that their home reflected so much of what she’s always hoped to have. But how crazy would it be to think they’d changed their entire home to suit her? That would be delusional. Right?

Sebastian didn’t talk much during the tour and Kenzie wondered if he was okay, until a text pinged on his phone and his face broke into a smile. “One last room to show you, princess.”

Sebastian squeezed her hand a bit tighter before leading her to a door they’d skipped in the tour earlier. Placing her directly in front of it, Sebastian asked, “Can you keep your eyes closed, or do I need to blindfold you?”

Kenzie’s breath caught and her panties suddenly became damp at the thought of being blindfolded by Sebastian, but she replied, “I can keep them closed, Papi.”

“Mmmm, we’ll come back to the idea of a blindfold. The way your thighs are rubbing together says you like the idea.” Papi’s voice was so close to her ear that she could feel his breath tickling the canal, sending shivers down her spine. “For now, close your eyes, princess, and keep them closed until I say to open.”

Kenzie dutifully squeezed her eyes tightly-shut and held her breath.

Sebastian

S ebastian was unwilling to give up his intimate position with Kenzie, so he reached around her waist and silently pushed the door open. His groin tightened even more at the sight of Beau, his boy, sitting among the game-controller pillows scattered across the dark gray couch in his side of the room.

Sebastian nudged Kenzie forward, stepping in sync with her, keeping himself at her back, “Okay, princess. Open your eyes.”

He deliberately whispered the words directly into her ear eliciting another full body shiver. He had plans to build on that reaction, but for now, he placed a hand on her waist and felt her sharp intake of breath.

“It’s beautiful!” The excitement and awe were evident in her reverent whisper.

Stepping forward, Kenzie reached out and touched a tower attached to the pink, castle-shaped bed set. She ran her hands along the gray and white bedding and made sure to feel every koala-themed decorative pillow. One hand was over her mouth, blocking his view of those tempting lips as she felt everything she could reach and turned to pay the same attention to the tree in the corner.

Obviously just noticing the sturdy nature of the tree built into the wall, Kenzie gasped and spun around, “Is that…” Kenzie trailed off for a minute and Beau stepped in, breaking his silence.

“A climbable tree? Yes, baby bear. How would you be a koala if you didn’t have some trees to climb? We also figured KoKo would enjoy having a fun place to hang out.”

Before Sebastian could even form another thought, Kenzie had placed a Mary-Jane-clad foot on the first branch and was scrambling up the limbs before he could even tell her to take off her shoes. His heart skipped when she reached the top in record time, visions of her bloody shoes slipping and her cracking her skull open playing in his head. It might not have been as high as a live, outdoor tree, but his Daddy heart didn’t seem to know any better. Maybe the tree wasn’t the best of ideas after all. One look at the joy on Kenzie’s face, though, and he knew he wasn’t about to change it. She’d sure be getting a bollocking about wearing shoes when climbing, though.

New rule. No shoes in the playroom from now on. They don’t really need them. It needs to be kept clean anyway, if my babies are going to be sitting on the floor while playing. In fact, maybe we should all start taking off our shoes when we come into the house.

“Look, Papi! I’m a koala!” Kenzie giggled wildly as Sebastian watched her swing from a branch until her feet found purchase on a lower one.

Reaching up, he gripped her waist and lowered her down, wrapping her legs around his waist and settling her on his hip, “Okay, koala baby, let’s get you settled in a koala nest, while your Daddy and I get your bags.”

“Silly Papi!” Her higher-pitched voice was pulling at his heart and Sebastian found himself reluctant to let her go. “Koalas don’t have nests !”

“No, but my princess has a nest that looks like a koala.” He ended his words by tossing her onto the beanbag shaped like a koala head, adding to her squeals and giggles by tickling her in any spot he could reach.

Beau joined in the fun, capturing her wrists and holding them above her head as Sebastian’s wriggling fingers found her armpits. Kenzie’s squeals mixed with Beau’s laughter, filling the room to the brim with joy, until the atmosphere changed. Thickened. Charged .

Kenzie’s laughter died and gave way to heavy breathing, Beau’s hands lost their grip on her wrists and traveled over her soft skin, Sebastian’s gaze locked with Kenzie’s as he leaned closer and whispered, “If anything becomes too much, little girl, I expect to hear your safeword, understand?”

Kenzie nodded her head, but Sebastian shook his own in response. “Words, princess. I need your words.”

“If it becomes too much, I’ll say my safeword.”

The words were barely out of her mouth before Sebastian had claimed her lips. He didn’t ease in; he was too hungry for her. Sebastian devoured, demanding entry and taking full advantage of her acquiescence. Her natural spicy taste played a perfect undertone to the traces of strawberry on her tongue as his stroked inside.

Kenzie moaned loudly and Sebastian opened his eyes to find Beau with a fist full of her hair, holding her in place for Sebastian’s kiss. Kenzie’s legs wrapped back around Sebastian’s hips, nestling her heat on his erection, and straining Sebastian’s control.
