“Yes, I do.” Reaching out, he took one of her hands in his. The warmth of his skin sent a shiver of pure longing through Addison as he entwined their fingers. “I want to talk about your needs,” he said in a low voice.
“My…my needs?” Her throat was suddenly dry and Addison found she could barely get the words out. “Er…what about them?”
“I want to try and meet them for you…at least,someof them.” Courick looked at her earnestly. “I’ll tell you up front, I can’t meet your sexual needs. I went much farther than I should have the other night—I came much too close to breaking my vow. But I can try to meet your other need—your need for a, er, ‘Daddy.’”
“You can?” Addison asked uncertainly. “But…why would you want to do that?”
“It’s wrong that you had to grow up without a father—without a male to love you and shelter you and care for you.” He pulled her a little closer and reached out with his other hand to cup her cheek. “I want to give you that, Addison. I want to give you a safe space to belittle,just like you said. Will you let me do that for you?”
Addison’s heart was thundering in her chest.
He cares!a little voice was singing inside her.He cares! He cares so much he wants to give me exactly what I need!
Well, except for the sex. That was kind of a bummer because sex was definitely a big part of her submission. But she was so thrilled that her stern boss wanted to meet her needs, she was willing to go along with anything he said.
“Yes,” she breathed, nuzzling her cheek into his big palm. “Yes, I wouldlovethat, er…” She wasn’t quite sure what to call him now.
“Daddy,” he finished for her. “You can call me ‘Daddy’ if you want. Or ‘Sir’ is fine too. But not at the office,” he added, giving her a stern look. “We’ll need to keep our relationship strictly professional while we’re here. Understood?”
“Okay.” Addison nodded eagerly. “So then…when do we play?”
“After we get off work, of course,” Courick said. “At my domicile.”
“At your place?” Addison raised her eyebrows. “Are we going to go there every night after work?”
“Of course.” He nodded. “Because you’re going to move in with me.”
Addison stared at him.
“Iam?”She didn’t know what to say.
“Yes, you are. Of course, this is a strictly temporary arrangement,” he added. “Just to help meet your needs and keep you safe until you…until you find a human male who’s willing to be your, er, Daddy.” He seemed to have trouble getting the words out. “But until then, I’ll fill that role for you.”
“Well…thank you, Sir.” Addison looked at him uncertainly. “But are you sure you want me to move in with you?”
“Of course I’m sure.” He frowned. “How else can I take care of you properly? Today after work, you’ll go to your own domicile and pack up your things. Then you’ll come to stay with me. Understood?”
Addison bit her lip. This all felt like it was moving extremely fast. Would the big Kindred get tired of letting her belittleall the time? Did he really understand what kind of relationship he was proposing to her? And then there was the fact that he seemed to think all this was temporary—as though she would ever want to find anyone else to be her Daddy Dom if he was already filling that role!
It was a big risk, and she knew it.
But nothing ventured, nothing gained,she told herself. She would have to take a chance on the big Kindred and hope that things went well. And maybe…justmaybehe’d change his mind about that vow he had taken and decide he wanted to make things permanent between them. There was only one way to find out.
“Understood,” she said at last. “I’ll pack my things and bring them to your place…Daddy.”
An expression of tenderness passed over his stern features and he pulled her towards him. For a breathless moment, Addison thought he was going to kiss her. And he did…but on the forehead, not the lips as she had been hoping. Still, it was very sweet and feeling his affection for her sent a shiver of pure joy through her body.
When he pulled back, he looked into her eyes.
“Little one,” he murmured, “I’m going to take suchgoodcare of you. You’ll see—I’ll meet your needs and you’ll never have to go to that dangerous club again.”
“I don’t want to go,” Addison told him. “Not as long as you’ll be my Daddy Dom. I won’tneedto go.”
“Good. That’s what I want to hear.” Courick released her and straightened up in his chair. “Now go back to your desk—it’s time we got the workday started.”
“Yes, Sir.” Addison nodded and straightened up as well, putting on her most professional face. But inside her heart was singing. Her stern Kindred boss wanted her! He wanted to meet her needs—she was even going to move in with him!
She couldn’t have been happier but she had no idea what trouble their new relationship would cause…
