Chapter Twenty-Eight
Three days later…
Eloise
I smile as I slowly turn in Daddy’s arms. The sun is just coming up, and I’m hoping I’ve finally woken up before him. But no such luck. He’s spooning me, but when I face him, he’s grinning.
I giggle. “Do you ever sleep? You’re always awake when I open my eyes.”
He kisses my nose. “I’m trained to detect any movement, angel. The second your breathing changes, I’m wide awake. If you whimper, I’m awake. If you moan, I’m awake.”
“If I moan, then I’m surely also wide awake,” I tease.
He flattens me onto my back and hovers over me. “Did you sleep well?”
“You tell me since you’re all-knowing.” The truth is I slept hard for the third night in a row. I haven’t had a single nightmare since I started sleeping in Daddy’s bed with his arms around me.
I was leery at first. I didn’t think I would be able to sleep with him. There were a number of factors that concerned me. One was that his bed is very high off the floor. He fixed that problem by putting me in the middle, piling pillows up on the far side of his huge bed, and holding me all night.
The second concern was that I’ve been staying up until nearly dawn and sleeping until noon for two weeks. But I was so emotionally drained by the time Daddy got home three nights ago that I conked out as soon as my head hit the pillow.
My next concern was that I would keep him awake with my restlessness, but again. Poof. I’m completely calm when I’m in his arms.
Concern number four was that I’ve never slept with anyone in my life. I didn’t think I would be able to relax with someone touching me. But I love it when Daddy touches me, and I like it even more when he’s wrapped around me.
“Sassy girl. Did you want to start the day off with my palm on your bottom?”
I blush, because I always blush when Daddy mentions spanking me. Apparently, it’s our thing. He makes a kinky suggestion, and I turn red.
I rest my palm on his bare chest. “Yes, please.”
Cannon has spanked me every day since he introduced me to impact play.
The day after he disposed of Larkin, he spanked me hard.
I asked him to. I was still upset with myself for disobeying him, and even though he wasn’t mad at me, he suggested that I could purge my system if he spanked me hard enough for it to actually hurt.
He was right. I felt much better after he swatted my bottom until I was close to tears. I felt even better after he fucked me just as hard afterward.
“You’re insatiable,” he murmurs before bringing his lips to mine. He kisses me senseless. By the time he lets me catch my breath, I’ve forgotten my name. All I know is that my panties are soaked and my nightie seems like way too much clothing.
“Please,” I beg.
“Please, what?” he asks, his brows furrowed in fake confusion.
“Please fuck me and then spank me.”
“In that order, naughty girl?”
I blush again. “I mean, will you please spank me and make love to me today, Daddy? In whatever order you want and on your timeframe, of course.”
He laughs. “Ah, good save. So I’m in charge?”
“Always, Sir.”
He slides a hand between us and strokes my pussy over my panties. “So wet for me already…”
I writhe against him.
He plants a knee between mine, pinning me open.
I whimper, fairly confident he’s going to torment me before he strips me naked.
When I buck against him, trying to get more contact, he shakes his head and removes his hand from my pussy. “Stay still, naughty girl.”
My breath hitches. “Daddy…”
“Are you going to be a good girl for Daddy?”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Are you sure you can? I’m not convinced. All this wiggling won’t get you what you want.”
I moan. “Please, Daddy…” I’m not above begging, and I know he likes it when I do.
“Bottom on the bed.”
I lower my hips. It’s so hard to obey him when he commands me to keep still.
“Good girl. Do you want me to stroke your pussy over these soaked panties?”
No. I want you to take them off and fuck me, but I don’t say that. “Yes, please.”
Daddy presses his thigh against my wet crotch.
When my eyes roll back, he tsks me. “No moving, Little one. Let Daddy pleasure you. I decide when you get to come.”
I moan deeper. It’s so hard to stop my body from squirming. I want to come so badly. I’m insatiable.
When he eases his knee back, he reaches between my legs again and gently strokes one finger over my pussy and clit.
I grit my teeth. I’m going to come from the simplest contact.
Daddy’s gaze is on mine while he torments my clit over and over. “Such a good girl. When I tell you to come, you’ll do so.”
I nod. I’m beyond the ability to speak.
“Now, angel. Come for Daddy.”
My orgasm sweeps through me, sending my hips clear off the bed as my pussy pulses hard against Daddy’s fingers. It’s too much and not enough all at the same time.
I’m still writhing when he rises to strip off my nightgown and panties. His briefs are gone in the next beat, and I’m still panting as he rolls a condom on.
“Flip over, Eloise. I want your bottom in the air. I want to see your pretty skin while I fuck you from behind before I turn this bottom bright red with my palm.”
I scramble onto my tummy and pull my knees in so my bottom is where he wants it.
I’m not the least bit worried about any new position Daddy introduces me to because it feels like heaven every time.
I’ve been fantasizing about him taking me from behind for days.
I’m excited that he’s finally going to do it.
“Knees wider, angel,” he orders.
Seconds later, he’s between my thighs, holding my hips. He lines up with my entrance and thrusts all the way in to the hilt.
I cry out. God, he feels so good. Every time he makes love to me, it’s like the first time. I assume eventually it won’t be so earth-shattering, but I hope it always is. It’s the best feeling in the world.
Daddy reaches around to stroke my clit while he slides in and out of my tight channel.
I groan long and hard as another climax builds.
“Come with me, Eloise.”
“Yes, Sir.”
I can tell when he gets closer. His breathing increases at the same time. “Now, angel,” he orders.
I shatter around his cock as we both cry out our releases.
We hover like this for long seconds, both of us still pulsing where we’re connected.
Daddy eventually slides out of me and lowers us onto our sides on the bed. He hauls me into his arms and kisses all over my face. “I love you.”
“I love you, too.”
We lie there staring at each other for a long time, smiling.
Eventually, Daddy kisses me sweetly. “You sure you’ll be okay here while I go to the office today, Little one?”
“Yes, Daddy.” The first time he left me, I paced for a while, but I calmed down. No one can get to me here, and besides, who’d want to? No one is after me anymore.
Larkin is history. I don’t know the specifics of what happened after Rachell drove me away from the warehouse, but I know he can’t hurt me again.
I also know that Black Blade Protection is top-notch at what they do.
Somehow, they disposed of Larkin and both cars in a way that no one will ever know what happened to him.
The next day, Daddy let me sit in on a meeting with his team.
Blade explained that he had sent two guys to Virginia the moment they found out Larkin was tracking me in Seattle.
Shadow and Rogue broke into Larkin’s house and went through every drawer, under every mattress, and in his computer. Everything he owned, in fact.
Turns out Larkin had a lot of money in the bank from the sale of girls.
Blade didn’t specify how many he’d trafficked.
I’m sure it’s best I not know that detail.
Shadow staged the house so that it would be easy for the local authorities to find out what they needed to know when they received an anonymous tip.
They won’t have to search for Larkin’s body for long. It will turn up soon enough.
I’m free. No one is looking for me. No one knows what happened to me. With Larkin and Westin dead, I’m finally able to move on with my life.
“You’re sure, Little one?” Daddy is frowning.
I smile. “Yes, Daddy. I’ll keep my phone with me at all times. If I get scared, I’ll text you. But I won’t need you. I’ll be studying for my GED. Can I still take the test next week? Do you think I’m ready?”
“I’m positive you’re ready, and then you can register for college classes.”
I hold my breath at his suggestion. He’s mentioned it several times, but I’m still unable to believe it could really be possible.
College? Me?
I’m Eloise Manning. The girl no one ever wanted. I’m a nobody.
Except Cannon would spank my ass even harder than he’s about to if I said that out loud.
I’m learning. It will take time to adjust my thinking.
I’m somebody important. I matter. And I’m smart. I can do anything I set my mind to.
My luck has shifted. I have Cannon now. He will make all my dreams come true.
