chapter 5

Soon started to drift.

The next thing I knew, there was a deep chuckle beneath my ear,

followed by several more in the room. I gasped, jerking a little and sitting

up slightly.

“Seems my little Kitten wore herself out,” Daddy said. “And she has

the cutest little snore.” More chuckles all around. I gasped, looking up at

him in horror. Had I embarrassed Daddy? He gripped my chin with his

fingers and tilted my head up, placing a soft, lingering kiss on my lips. “My

adorable little Kitten,” he cooed. “Can you curl up on your pillow at my feet

and nap?”

I nodded, nervously glancing around the room.

“Words, Kitten.”

I swallowed, nodding again. “Yes, Daddy. I can sit at your feet

now.”

“Down you go then,” he said, helping me to my feet. My bottom

was hot and uncomfortable, and I rubbed it absently to more chuckles.

“Someone is feeling her punishment,” Victor said, amusement in his

voice. Automatically, my gaze shifted to him, but the man was just too

intimidating. I lowered my gaze and sank to my pillow bed beneath the

table and between Daddy’s legs.

“Do you need a blanket, Kitten?”

I looked up at Daddy and shivered, my nipples puckering beneath

my T-shirt. “Yes, please, Daddy.”

“Very good,” he praised. “Victor?”

The other man got me a soft, fuzzy blanket. Instead of handing it to

me like I expected, however, he leaned down and draped it over me

carefully. There was no expression on his face, but he gave me a shiver with

his intensity. I glanced up at Daddy, not sure what I should do.

Daddy nodded at me. “You may allow Victor to pet you, Kitten. It was his suggestion your behavior be corrected here. If he wishes to comfort

you, I’ll permit it.”

I shifted my gaze to Victor, who gave me a soft smile. Gently, he

petted my hot bottom through the blanket. “I’m sorry, little one. But it was

the right decision. You want to be with your Daddy, right? If he can’t trust

your behavior, he can’t allow you to be with him like this.”

I nodded my understanding. I hadn’t thought about his logic, but it

made sense. I certainly wanted to be with Daddy every chance I could.

Then Victor was gone, and Daddy moved his chair back into place.

As before, I leaned against his thigh as I rested. But I couldn’t doze back

off.

I lay as still as I could, listening to the voices of the men around me.

My Daddy’s was the sexiest. I didn’t pay much attention to what he said,

but I let the timbre wash over me. It was deep and gruff -- he wasn’t a

smooth-talking man -- but then I’d learned that over the week I’d been in

his company. He’d been unfailingly gentle with me, meeting my every need

as soon as it was presented to him. Today was the first time he’d ever been

harsh with me.

Voices continued around the room, sometimes rising in intensity. It

disturbed me when they did. I found I didn’t like the aggression from the

other men, even if it wasn’t directed at me.

I thought for a moment. My instructions were to lay my head in

Daddy’s lap if I needed him. I assumed that meant he’d stop and attend to

me. Did I need him enough for him to stop his meeting? To disturb him

twice in the same sitting? What if he wouldn’t bring me back again? No.

That was unacceptable. Instead of interrupting him, I scooted closer to his

calf and stuck two fingers in my mouth. I should have known Daddy would

notice.

He shifted slightly. When he did, I looked up to see him peering down at me with a hard gaze. Then his expression softened a little. The

meeting didn’t stop, for which I was glad. First, I wasn’t sure my poor

bottom could take any more. Secondly, I didn’t want to be a burden to

Daddy. Instead of interrupting the flow of the meeting, he unzipped his fly

and patted his thigh for me to come to him.
