He liked that.
“I want you to know that you can tell us anything, sweetheart,” Grady told her. “We won’t judge. Truth is, we’ve probably seen or done most things.”
“So you are Doms?”
“Tell us what you ate for breakfast first,” Steele said. “Then we’ll talk about this.”
She huffed out a breath. “I still think pleading the fifth should be a thing.”
“It is a thing,” Steele replied. “Just not for you, baby girl.”
“A cookie and some coffee.”
It was worse than he’d expected. She really did need someone watching after her. Steele could do that for her. Ensure that she ate properly, got enough rest, and took care of herself.
But she might need more . . . she might need that from you too.
Can you be there for her Little?
Before, he would have said no. He would have left that part to Steele.

“Right. That means you need a proper breakfast, young lady,” Steele said firmly.
“But it was a healthy cookie with nuts in it!” She dropped her lower lip out on a pout.
“That doesn’t make it any better,” Steele told her. “A cookie is not proper food. A cookie is a treat.”
“Hey! Don’t be mean to the cookies of the world! I’m pretty sure they think they are proper food. You might hurt their feelings.”
“Cookies don’t have feelings. And if they did, they’d know that they weren’t an acceptable breakfast food. Grady is going to make you breakfast and you’re going to eat it, even if I have to feed it to you.”
“But I’m not hungry.”
“You can’t be full from just a cookie,” Grady said.
“It was one of those protein cookies. So I really don’t need more food.”
A protein cookie?
Yeah. Still unacceptable.
“Grady,” Steele prompted.
“I’ll make some scrambled eggs. I’ve got some avocados too. And berries.”
“I really can’t eat.”
“Keep protesting, baby girl, and he’ll make you a Brussels sprout and spinach omelet,” Steele warned.
“Now that’s just plain cruel. I can’t believe you’d be so mean, Daddy.”
Steele’s entire body froze. She had already guessed they were Doms, even though they hadn’t answered her yet. But he hadn’t thought she’d realized he was a Daddy Dom.
Steele hadn’t even been certain that she knew she was a Little.
