“I hadn’t thought about it like that.” Her arms wrap around my neck, squeezing with all of her tiny might. “Thank you. I can’t wait to move in.”

“Then let’s skip the fight and go home.”

I’m not joking but she thinks I am, laughing and kissing my face the way she does when she shows her gratitude.

“I promised Melchior, so I have to go. But…”

Her meticulous inspection of my suit confuses me despite her seeming approval.

“…I don’t know what to wear.”

I never paid much attention in the past because I was only there to see my son. But if memory serves me correctly, most of the women had on dresses, like going to a club. Which is totally unacceptable for my innocent girl. “Jeans and a sweater is fine.”

Her head tilts while she frowns. I don’t think she buys what I’m selling her so that her perfect body can be completely covered, but arguing isn’t in her nature. Damn it. If she gets there and feels out of place, I’ll feel like an ass. “Or if you have a dress—amodestdress—that should be good.”

Now she’s convinced with my revised suggestion and with a too brief peck on my cheek, she hops off my lap and hurries to her closet.

“I have one from Bree’s cousin’s wedding last winter.”

She carefully glides a garment bag from between pants and shirts crowded into the tight space and yanks down the zipper, revealing a red dress with a high neckline, sheer sleeves, and a billowy skirt. “As long as it’s not too short.”

With an expression full of earnestness, she shakes her head. “It comes to my knee, I promise.”

“Good. Go ahead and put it on.”

She clutches the material to her chest and starts walking as if she’s going to the bathroom. What the fuck? “Here. I want to watch.”

The rasping of my voice surprises me. All I do is think about her changing clothes, and I’m instantly hard and greedy for her.

“Okay, Daddy.”

With a wild blush, she grasps the hem, and slides my tee shirt up her body. Hard, pink nipples point in my direction tempting me to reach out and thumb the hard nubs.

Instead, I make myself to wait for her to kick off her shoes and drag down her leggings. Once she’s finally bare for me, I motion for her to spin around so I can enjoy her luscious body.

She twirls slowly, glancing over her shoulder as her ass, gorgeous with the faint outline of my handprint on her pale skin, comes into view. Without even trying, she’s a temptress.

“I have matching panties too.”

“Put them on.”

It takes every shred of willpower to not climb off this mattress and pounce on her as she darts to the dresser. She slips out a small bundle from the drawer and steps into a red thong. The lingerie has to be her friend’s idea. Seraphina would never pick out something so sexy. “Has anyone ever seen you in those?”

Because if they have, I’ll send Melchior to carve out their eyeballs.

Terrified from my hoarse tone, she instantly covers her small breasts with her arm in protective mode and shakes her head furiously. “No. No one.”

“Very good.”

Her body softens, and she hurries to pull on the dress. Dazzling brown eyes flick to my face and then the floor, where her toes curl into the carpet. I know she craves my approval, which I am more than happy to give her. “You look incredible. Absolutely breathtaking.”

She fluffs the skirt and whirls around. “I’m so glad you like it.”

I did. Until I saw the cut out in the back. What the fuck? “Come here.”

Obedient as ever, she rushes to me. I stand her between my legs and rotate her to face the mirror. Worry etches her expression as she watches me.

“Am I in trouble again?”
