I let what he’d just said sink in. All of these men were Daddies. Did that mean…
“So all of your friends are Daddies?”
“They are,” he said, looking at me waiting, giving me time to put it all together.
I hadn’t been joking. I knew very little about Daddies.
I mean, I knew they existed, but not much else.
My knowledge was basically what I’d picked up in porn and a couple of books I’d read, so I had no idea how realistic my ideas were.
I knew that Ryder fit the image of what I thought a hot Daddy would be like, but I didn’t know how that worked in the real world.
“So is that what you want as well? A boy, I mean.” I asked hesitantly. Again, I didn’t know exactly how that would work, but I didn’t think I’d be a good fit. At least not in the way I’d seen it portrayed.
“That’s a complicated question,” Ryder said.
He moved the food around on his plate. I figured he was gathering his thoughts, and I’d give him a chance to pull them together, the same as he did for me.
Although my mind was spinning. I’d gotten very comfortable here with Ryder, not just as his employee but also as something more.
I didn’t want to give that up, but if he was looking for a man who’d let him make all his decisions for him and who wanted to be told what to do all the time, this would never work.
I’d spent most of my life doing what everyone else said I should do, and I was finished with that.
I tried very hard not to let the panic that was brewing in my mind show on my face.
“I have been in Daddy/boy relationships before. That’s actually how the guys and I all became friends.
The kink community is kind of like a family.
We kind of all know each other. I’ve known Owen since we were kids, we grew up together, but I met Cooper at a club.
I met Max at the bar, he and Owen were friends, and he introduced us to Lucas. ”
“Okay?” I said hesitantly because that was good to know, but it still didn’t answer my question.
“There are things about being in a Daddy/boy relationship I like, things about it that come naturally to me.”
“Things like rescuing lost men in the home improvement store?”
“Yeah,” he said, chuckling. “Things like that. But you weren’t lost. You were just in over your head a little bit. What I’ve learned is there are also aspects of it that don’t fit quite as well for me as other Daddies I know.”
“Like what?” From what little I knew about it, I bet he’d be a perfect Daddy.
“That is a long story and not one we have to go into tonight. Just let me say that I like what we have together, and I’m not looking for you to be anyone you aren’t.
I think you’re perfect the way you are.” I thought about what he said and then nodded.
I believed him. But I was still going to think about this a lot over the next couple of days.
“How about this? You put the leftovers away, and while you do that, I’ll run you that bubble bath I mentioned earlier, and we can talk about this more later on? ”
“You got the bubble bath even though I didn’t go out to dinner with you?”
“Of course I did. It may not be the kind you would have picked out, but I’m pretty sure it’ll make bubbles.”
“Thank you,” I said, leaning over to give him a kiss. “That was sweet of you.”
“You worked hard today to get everything ready for my friends. You deserve something nice.” He stood and brushed a finger down my cheek. “Come upstairs when you’re done.”
I sat there at the table for a minute, just soaking in the way I was feeling at that moment. I’d never had anyone run me a bubble bath. No, more than that, I’d never been with anyone who made me feel like what I wanted or needed was as important as what they wanted.
It was as confusing as it was wonderful, but how I felt about what Ryder had just shared with me was a problem for future Brennan.
Present Brennan had a super-hot man, and a bubble bath waiting for him upstairs, and instead of worrying, I was going to take him at his word.
For the first time in my life, no one wanted me to be anyone but me, and I would take it.
I quickly put the food away and then headed upstairs. I wasn’t sure exactly what I would find up there, but what waited for me was like something out of a movie or a romance novel.
The lights in the bathroom were turned off, and the only illumination came from candles he’d placed around the room.
There were a couple of glasses of wine sitting on the side of the tub, which was exactly what I needed tonight.
But as sweet as all that was, the best part was what was in the massive tub.
It was filled with bubbles and one insanely hot man.
I stood there for a second taking it all in. The candles, the wine, and the bubbles. I didn’t even know what to say.
“Are you going to join me?”
I nodded and quickly stripped off my clothes. “I’ve never taken a bath with anyone before,” I said.
“Neither have I, but I think you need a little pampering tonight. Now, climb on in here and let me take care of you.”
I stepped into the hot water slowly, trying not to make a mess.
He reached up and put his hands around my hips and guided me down, positioning me between his legs.
I relaxed back against him and let out a contented sigh.
He handed me a glass of wine, then shifted a little so that he was in a comfortable position, then he settled one arm around my waist.
We lay there, not talking, just drinking our wine and soaking.
When I finished the glass of wine, he reached around me and took the empty glass, sitting it on the side of the tub next to his.
Then he grabbed the mesh bath sponge, squeezed some liquid bath soap on it, and then washed my body, starting with my chest then working his way down.
“I would love to wash your hair,” he whispered in my ear. “But maybe we better save that for a shower.”
I gasped as his hands dropped lower, and he cupped my balls in one hand while he washed my cock with the other.
If you’d asked me an hour ago, I’d have told you I was too tired to even think about sex, but now it was all I could think about.
It was like my whole body had become one giant erogenous zone.
I felt his hard length nestled between my ass cheeks, and his lips as they trailed light kisses up my neck.
“Ryder,” I moaned.
“What do you need, Angel?”
“You, I just need you.”
He stood up, taking me with him, and then stepped out of the tub. “Let’s take this to the bed.” He wrapped a towel around me, pulling me against him and kissing me. “Damn, Angel, I want you.”
I took a step back and dropped the towel. “Then take me.” His eyes flashed, and the next thing I knew, my feet weren’t touching the ground, and he was carrying me to the bed. He tossed me onto the mattress before crawling up beside me.
“We’re going to get the bed wet,” I said.
“Don’t care,” he said.
I pushed myself up into a sitting position and brushed my lips lightly against his, then tilted my head to the side slightly. He kissed the base of my neck in that spot where my neck and shoulder met. He moved up the arch of my neck, all the way to my ear, inhaling deeply.
“Unng.” he moaned softly. “You know what your scent does to me?”
“Mmhmm,” I grinned, loving that I could make him crazy.
He leaned down and bit one of my nipples, making me squirm.
He released the nipple from his teeth and then used his tongue to soothe the pain.
Grabbing the bottle of lube off the bedside table, he quickly slicked up his cock and moved into position between my legs.
I pulled my knees up, giving him better access as he lined himself up with my entrance.
He pressed forward slowly until he was balls deep inside me.
“Oh yes, so good,” I said, tilting my pelvis up to give him a better angle.
Ryder began to thrust in long, driving strokes, pumping into me with deep, punishing thrusts working my body for all it was worth. He scattered soft, gentle kisses along my temple even as he fucked deep into me. I loved it like this when he was rough and gentle at the same time.
He placed his hand on the wall above my head for leverage.
He pulled out till only the head of his cock remained inside, and then thrust, plunging in hard.
He fucked me with a smooth, hard rhythm as he thrust in and out.
I moaned and gasped for air as he set up a brutal rhythm, nailing my prostate with the head of his cock.
The heat built inside my stomach, and I knew I was about to come.
“I’m close,” I told him, reaching for my cock stroking it.
He threw his head back, making sounds that were primal and desperate and full of need. I loved seeing this big strong man so close to losing his mind all because of me. We both cried out as we came, riding out the waves of pleasure together.
Ryder
I wrapped my arms around him, holding him tight, and waited for the earth to stop spinning. That had been one of the most intense orgasms of my life.
“Wow,” he whispered.
“Yeah,” I agreed.
He chuckled and snuggled in close. “We have to do something about the bed, but not yet. Can we just lie here a minute first?”
“I’d love to, but I think we better take care of it all or else we’re going to fall asleep.”
We got cleaned up but decided just to strip the comforter off the bed. I could deal with that tomorrow. We crawled back in bed and collapsed in each other’s arms. I held him close and ran my fingers up his back slowly. It didn’t take long until his breathing slowed, and he was sleeping.
I thought back to our conversation earlier when I told him about Travis and Max, and he asked me if that was what I wanted. Here in the dark, with him in my arms, I gave that some serious thought.
Was it? It was kind of funny. Before Brennan came into my life, I wasn’t sure.
After the experience I’d had with Casey, I’d decided maybe it wasn’t for me.
But now? Now I knew two things. First off, I knew that I wanted him to be my boy, and second of all, I knew that if he decided calling me Daddy wasn’t for him, it wouldn’t matter to me.
It wouldn't change the fact that I was his Daddy and considered him my boy.That was just who I was.
I would however, consider it a gift if he ever called me Daddy.
A gift, but not a necessity. Brennan was a necessity, not the word.
