Seeing her cheeks blush an adorable pink, he offered her another bite as he continued, “When I met you, I wanted to wrap you in cotton and whisk you away from any threat. As I spend time with you, kiss you, and hold you, I get the impression that maybe you’re attracted to me too.”
Brooklyn looked down at her plate and then back up at him. She nodded.
“You’re being so brave, little girl. I’m proud of you.”
Caden took a bite himself, giving her a chance to think. When she finished chewing, he held her sippy cup up to her lips. Obediently, she took a drink. “Good girl.”
The doorbell rang, and Brooklyn jumped to her feet. Caden wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her close. “You’re okay, sweetheart. That’s the delivery guy telling me everything is here. Come sit on Daddy’s lap and we’ll grab the bags in a few minutes.”
She eagerly climbed onto his thighs and leaned back against his chest. A warm sensation of rightness grew inside Caden’s chest. He loved holding her. He pressed a kiss to her temple and stilled as Brooklyn turned her face to offer him her lips. Caden gave her several butterfly-light kisses until she leaned into the exchange, silently requesting more. He was happy to indulge her.
Deepening his kisses, Caden’s desire for the precious woman escaped his ironclad control. His tongue swept into her mouth, tasting the deliciousness that lingered from their dinner as well as her own tantalizing flavor. He groaned into her mouth when Brooklyn threaded her fingers through his military-short hair. Returning the favor, he tangled one hand in her silky brown tresses and tugged her head back slightly.
Her answering moan signaled to him she enjoyed his domination and perhaps a hint of pain. His cock hardened at the image of spanking Brooklyn’s bare bottom as she wiggled over his thighs. His fingers tightened in her hair, and to his delight she whispered, “Daddy, please.”
Lifting his head to make sure she wanted more, Caden loved the hungry expression on her face. “Are you okay, Brookie?”
“More kisses, please.”
Caden lowered his mouth to hers and allowed himself to kiss her with all the emotions and desire inside him. To his delight, she matched his longing, revealing her need for him. Before he lost total control, Caden forced himself to end the exchange.
“Daddy!” she protested.
“I know, sweetheart. Daddy plans to make love to you very soon. I feel our connection deeply too, but I don’t want to rush you. Once I make you mine, I’ll never let you go.”
She stared into his eyes for several long seconds before nodding. “I come with a lot of complications.”
“I can’t wait to discover everything about you. And sharing all I am,” he assured her.
“I’d love that, too.” Brooklyn hugged him tight. Caden rubbed her back, loving how well they fit together. He couldn’t imagine a more perfect little girl. She was his.
When she leaned back, he glanced at his empty plate. “Someone stole my dinner. How about if we work on this plate now?”
He alternated feeding the adorable Little in his arms and himself until they couldn’t eat another bite. “I think you like your daddy’s cooking.”
“Even if he sneaks vegetables in under the cheese,” she said with an impish wink.
“Sounds like a perfectly Daddy thing to do.” Caden swept her up in his arms and stood. He nibbled at that sensitive curve where her neck and shoulder met before setting Brooklyn on her feet. “Alright, my temptress, want to help me bring in the delivery?”
“Yes!”
When she rushed to the door, Caden called, “Let me open the door, little girl.” He checked the area outside before waving and picking up a couple of light bags for her to carry. “Put these on the island and we’ll unpack everything.”
“What are these, Daddy? They rattle!” She set them in the kitchen and pulled the first thing out. Looking at it skeptically, she said, “I think you got someone else’s order.”
“What is it?” Caden asked, following her with the other ten bags after locking the door behind him.
“There’s several baby bottles and wipes—you know, like for baby bottoms,” she reported, waving one bottle toward him to show him.
“Nope. This is my order. Do you like the cute animals on them?”
After checking out the pattern, Brooklyn whipped her head back up to stare at him. Her surprised expression enchanted him. “Did you get these for me?”
“I did. You enjoyed the sippy cups. I thought a bottle would be good for you before bed.”
Her gaze dropped back to the bottle and then over to the wipes in her other hand. “And these?” she whispered.
Caden set down the other packages on the island and tugged her into the circle of his arms. “How much do you understand about your little side?”
