Daddy's strong arms encased me as we rushed to the janitorial closet, my heart pounding in terror at what we might find. The emptiness of the closet hit me like a physical blow, the absence of the masked man a chilling reminder of the nightmare that had become my reality.
Daddy's comfort was a soothing balm. He carried me to the living room. I looked up into his eyes, the trust and love in them a promise of safety, a vow to protect me.
"We'll go to the police first thing in the morning," he said, his voice gentle but firm. "We'll make sure Finn can't hurt you again."
I nodded, the reality of the situation still too raw, too painful. But I knew that with Daddy by my side, I could face it, I could overcome it.
"I won't let anything bad happen to you, sweetheart," Hank promised, his voice filled with conviction, his eyes shining with determination. "You're safe with me. Always."
"I believe you," I whispered, a smile breaking through the tears.
We shared a kiss, a seal of our promise to each other. It was passionate and healing, a reaffirmation of our love, our trust, our unbreakable bond.
"We should move in together right away," he said, his voice filled with love and concern. "We don't have to wait a week like we planned. I want you to be safe, to be with me."
I smiled, my heart swelling with love, my mind filled with dreams of our life together. "I would like nothing more, Daddy. I want to be with you too, always."
“I’ll stay with you, just to make sure he doesn’t return in the night. We’ll pack your things first thing in the morning.”
As we settled into bed, Hank's presence a constant reassurance, I felt the weight of the night's terror begin to lift. He handed me my favorite wolf stuffie, a comforting connection to simpler times, and covered me with my favorite blankie. The binky he placed in my mouth was a soothing reminder of safety, of innocence, and I began sucking on it instinctively.
Hank's voice, soft and tender, filled the room as he began to sing a made-up lullaby. The words were simple, the melody gentle, but the meaning was profound:
Hush now, Little one, Daddy's here,
In my arms, you've nothing to fear.
The nightmares will fade, the darkness will flee,
I'll keep you safe, forever with me.
Dream now of love, of joy and delight,
Under the stars, in the soft moonlight.
Together we'll face the storms and the strife,
Your Daddy's love will guide you through life…
I was half asleep, lulled by the melody, the promise of safety and protection wrapped around me like a warm embrace.
"I love you, Daddy," I whispered, the words a heartfelt pledge.
"I love you too, princess" Daddy replied, his voice filled with emotion.
With those words, I slipped into a deep and peaceful sleep, the terror of the night replaced by the warmth of love, the promise of a future filled with joy and happiness. The nightmare was over, at least for now, and in Daddy's arms, I had found my sanctuary, my home, my forever love.
