Chapter Eighteen
“Sit up a bit, baby.” Thomas stepped into the bathtub, sat, and pulled her back against him. He closed his eyes for a moment because it was the first time he had relaxed since her running.
He heard her breathing deepen, telling him she was asleep. “Sweetheart. Let’s get you washed so I can get you fed and into bed.”
She started to move, reaching for the washcloth and soap, and handed it to him. His hand glided over her body, leaving suds and bubbles behind. He didn’t linger in any one place or try to arouse her, although by the look of her tight, hard nipples, she was already at a heightened level of need.
“Unplug the drain,” Thomas told her. “Come on, baby. Let’s get dried off and you into bed. We’ll eat a bit before we go to sleep,” he said as he stood and then helped her up.
He dried them both and wrapped a towel around his torso, and reached for a robe to put on her.
If he saw her naked, he’d have her under him and his cock as deep as he could inside of her.
The urge was almost more than he could handle.
He wanted to cement their bond in the deepest way, but first, he needed to take care of her.
He got them settled on the mattress and handed her a plate. “Do you want some fruit besides the sandwich?”
“Just part of an egg sandwich for now. Can we wait to eat the fruit and other things later?” she asked.
“Of course.” He loaded his plate and dug in. Neither of them talked. He could tell she was about at the end of her rope and needed rest.
“Are you finished?” he asked.
She nodded and handed over the plate.
He arranged everything on the tray and set it on the nightstand. “Let’s brush our teeth and then rest.”
Thomas helped her stand and stood beside her as they brushed their teeth.
“Go on and get into bed, baby,” he said.
Angel moved to the mattress and climbed on. He was about to tell her to remove the robe, but decided not to, for fear of any more temptation.
He pulled on a pair of shorts and closed the blinds before sliding into bed. He arranged her back against his chest and kissed the back of her head.
“Daddy?”
“What, baby?”
“Aren’t we going to ... you know?”
He smiled against the back of her head. She was still so innocent in so many ways, and he hoped she’d never lose that side of her. “You mean fuck?”
She gasped and turned her head. “Daddy! That’s a bad word.”
“I know, and I told you that you’d have to get used to it. But no, I want us to get a little rest. I’ll wake you up in a few hours,” he said.
She hummed, closed her eyes, and was out. Thomas fell asleep a minute later.
Sometime later, Angel moved, waking him.
He shushed her when he noticed she was having a nightmare.
He got angry at himself. She’d had nightmares for weeks when she came to live with him, but finally got to the point where she felt secure enough to sleep without fear.
That was until he brought Derek Sanchez into their lives.
He had planned to sit her down and talk to her before he came back, but hadn’t had the chance.
Now, he’d have to deal with his mistake and pray it wouldn’t take a lot to get her over this trauma.
He fell back asleep. A sound outside woke him again. He looked out the window at the sunlight and determined it was early afternoon. She needed more rest, but he couldn’t wait another moment without bonding with his girl.
Thomas reached behind himself for the drawer to the nightstand and pulled what he needed out, set the tube of lube to the side, pulled off his shorts, and rolled on his condom.
He gently slid the robe off her shoulders and bent, kissing her neck while one of his hands reached over and cupped her breast, using his thumb to tighten the nipple.
Angel made a mewing sound and moved against him. “Daddy?”
“Yes, baby.”
She tried to roll to her back, but he stopped her. “No. Stay on your side. I’m going to take you from behind this way. All I need you to do is relax for me.”
She nodded.
Thomas started caressing every part of her he could reach before centering on the wet, needy part of her.
She gasped when he thrust one of his blunt-tipped fingers into her cunt and pumped in and out several times.
He pulled out and started pushing two of his fingers in.
She lifted her leg to give him easier access.
When he had her begging for more, he slipped his hand down and thrust into her ass, making her squeal.
“Easy, baby. You’ve had my fingers in your ass several times. You know I won’t hurt you.”
She nodded and pushed her ass back against him.
He pulled out and reached for the tube he had set by his pillow. After pushing a large amount of slippery gel out, he moved back down and finger-fucked her ass, scissoring them in her, stretching her out.
When she was crying out for more, he lifted her leg back onto his, lined his cock up to her ass, and started pushing into her.
“Daddy, it burns,” she whined.
“I know. Remember how my fingers felt in you and how much you loved it.”
She nodded.
“You’ll get that same feeling with my cock, only more intense. But first, we have to get through these muscles, and it will be easier.”
He gently rocked his hips. He pressed one hand to her stomach, and with the other, he slid under her hips and around, so he was able to reach for her clit. The moment he pressed on the tight little button, she jerked back, pushing a few of his inches into her.
“That’s a good girl. We made it past the hard part.” As he caressed her clit, he pistoned into her an inch at a time until he was impaled on her. He exhaled and gritted his teeth. The urge to slam into her was overwhelming, and it took a moment for him to gain back some of his strength to fight it.
Thomas kissed the back of her head. “How are you doing, baby?”
She wiggled against him. “Can you move, Daddy? I need you.”
“Yes. Relax and enjoy.”
He started to thrust into her, going slowly at first and then building the force and speed when he felt her tighten on him.
“Come for me,” he murmured.
She shook her head and cried out. “It’s too much.”
“It’s not. I’ve got you.” He started to press on her clit again at the same time, ramping up his thrusts, giving her the most powerful orgasm she’d ever had.
She screamed and clamped down on his cock, making it nearly impossible to move. His whole body was on fire, and he gritted his teeth against the need to shout.
When her ass finally loosened, he pulled his hand away from her clit, used his chest to push her to her stomach, pressed her legs together, and took her in hard, driving thrusts until he exploded.
The orgasm seemed to go on forever. He was finally able to relax and braced his weight on his elbows. He took a moment to steady his heartbeat and noticed she was still shivering from the aftermath of the orgasm he’d given her.
“Are you okay, baby?” he asked.
She hummed, making him smile. He kissed the back of her head. “I’ll be right back to take care of you. Don’t move.”
She nodded.
He pulled out of her ass and slid off the bed, making his way into the bathroom to get rid of the condom and wash before taking a wet cloth into her and wiping the cum and lube from her bottom.
When he got back into bed, he rolled her to face him and tipped her head up, taking her mouth in a hard, dominant kiss.
Thomas smiled when he lifted his head. “I can tell you need a bit more sleep. Let’s rest for another hour or so, and then we’ll go down for dinner.”
She nodded and tucked her head against his shoulder. “I love you, Daddy.”
He tightened his hold on her. “I love you, too. More than I ever thought possible.”
Thomas lay, holding her against him, staring up at the ceiling. If it weren’t for the fact that it felt so right, the depth of his feelings for her would have frightened him. But he knew from the moment he met her that she was the other half of his soul.
