“Parker, you’re gutting me right now with your tears,” he murmurs but doesn’t let go of me or stop pressing kisses to the top of my head.
Is this what it’s like to be cared about?
I don’t know but if it is, I don’t want the feeling to go away.
Slowly my tears subside, and I lift my head enough to turn and meet Cane’s gaze. “I’m sorry,” I utter through hitches in my breath.
“Baby, you don’t need to be sorry for crying. It means you’re human and there’s nothing wrong with that.” His thoughtful expression is my undoing though I don’t know if I’m deserving of Cane. He’s breathtaking where I’m plain.
How is it that he’s so nice to me when it’s my brother who is messing with his club? His club’s enemy is my blood and yet this man is being so kind to me.
Before I can stop myself, I lean into him and press my lips to his. Cane’s arm around my waist tightens as his hand cupping the back of my head fists my hair holding me in place. His mouth taking control as he takes over the small kiss I was trying to give him and makes it something even more. Something that sends tingles throughout my entire body, shooting euphoric sensations down to my core.
As fast as the kiss started, Cane stopped it by ripping his mouth from mine.
“Fuck, lil mama,” he rasps gravelly as I try to regain my breath. “This isn’t how I wanted this shit to go.”
Ouch.
“I’m sorry,” I whisper, my heart already starting to crack into a million pieces.
“Parker, whatever it is your thinkin’ in that head of yours get it out now,” he orders. His eyes narrow on me with a dominating expression like I’ve read about in books that does even more to me than I thought it would as I immediately whip the thought from my head.
“Good girl, lil mama,” he states with satisfaction. I’m surprise, I’m pleased with myself for doing as he said. “Now what I meant was I’m not about to fuck you here in the shower after you had an emotional breakdown. I want your ass in my bed with your arms tied to the posts where I can take my time with you. Bring you to climax slowly then and only then will I be inside your pussy.”
Oh my God.
My thighs tighten of their own accord.
“You like that idea, lil mama?” I nod to his question. “Use your words,” he commands.
“Yes,” I whisper.
“Yes what?”
My core is tingling with need right now at the tone of voice he’s using with me. Doesn’t help his hand is still gripping my hair in his fist.
“Yes, I like your idea,” I murmur with a lick to my suddenly dry lips.
“You’re forgetting something at the end of your sentence, Parker,” he states.
I narrow my eyes in confusion, he doesn’t mean.
Oh, but he does.
“When you address me, at moments like this where we’re alone, naked or otherwise, you call me ‘Master’. From now on, I’ll be the master of your body. We’ll go over the rest of the rules later but for now we need to get you up and finished in here. We have a little girl who will be awake from her nap soon,” Cane declares.
Um, can I start crying again. I’ve never felt this much need for someone and all I want is for him to be inside me right now.
Cane’s a Dom, I’m realizing and though I’ve never thought about it, I’ve read books and it interested me. I already know I could submit to him. This is why he states he’ll take care of me. It’s who he is, in his nature.
“Now, do you understand what I’m saying?” he asks, still using the same tone of voice.
Clearing my throat, I nod. “Yes, Master,” I murmur.
“Good girl, Parker,” he rasps and rewards me with another sizzling kiss that leaves me wanting more. When Cane pulls away, I whimper in protest. “Don’t worry, lil mama, I’ll be having you soon enough, but not when Piper’s in the room with us. If you’re okay with it I’d like to see if she can spend the night with Corinne in the playroom we have here.”
Wow.
Oh my.
He thinks of everything, doesn’t he?
“She wouldn’t be out of the clubhouse?” I ask, wanting to make sure I understand him right.
“No, Piper would only be a few doors down from us. Prez made the room for the twins and it’s come in handy for all the kids that are now here at the clubhouse. All of them love to have sleepovers in there and Rachel puts movies on for them and sets them up with popcorn. She stays with them until they’re asleep then takes the monitor with her. There’s also a prospect on the door when the kids are alone.”
I’ve never had an entire night away from my little girl. Sure, she’s asleep when I get home from work but that’s for only a couple hours and I’m always there when she wakes up. Will she be okay with this? I don’t want to scare her, not after what she went through yesterday. Then again, when she woke up, she didn’t seem affected by the whole scenario.
We can always try, and Cane did say we’re only a few doors down the hallway from where she’ll be.
“Okay,” I agree, giving Cane a small smile.
I only hope me taking this leap doesn’t come back to bite me in the ass as everything else in life has.
Chapter Ten
Cane
Having Parker call me ‘Master’ for the first time in the shower was like music to my ears. My cock twitched in my boxers I kept on while hopping into the shower with my woman.
After she’d gotten into the shower, I’d gone back out to the main room to get Piper. I found her playing with Corinne but looking tired. I figured she could use a nap. I mean even Corinne and Luca still take naps and I think they’re like two years older than Piper.
It didn’t take me long to get her down, Piper had been more than ready. I decided to check on Parker since she’d been in the shower for a while. My chest still pains me at the sounds of her sobs. It’s why I removed my jeans and slipped into the shower behind her and pulled her into my arms.
Then my woman had to go and kiss me. I wasn’t expecting it to take all my restraint not to fuck her right then and there. But our first time isn’t gonna be right after her emotional break down or in the shower.
No, I have plans and she’s agreed to let Piper sleep in the playroom tonight with Corinne. This means I get to play with her body all fuckin’ night.
Fuck yeah.
Once Parker’s dry and in a pair of my sweatpants for the time being and a hoodie, I grab some clothes, step in the bathroom, and dress quickly. Stepping back into the room, my phone beeps. I unlock the screen to read the text message I received.
Church five minutes.
Damn.
Sighing, I shove the phone in my pocket and grab a pair of socks. I sit on the bed and slip them over my feet as I lift my head to meet Parker’s gaze as she stares at me.
“I gotta get to church,” I inform her. “I want you to stay within the clubhouse. Am I understood?” I’m not trying to sound like a demanding asshole talking to a child but fuck if I want anything to happen to her or Piper. Parker’s my woman making her daughter mine as well. Fuck if I want to leave them alone too long and have them possibly getting hurt in some way.
