Page 13 of Daddy's Little Cowgirl

“What does that mean?” Ellie asked.

“He poked her in the ass,” Aleena told them.

“Poked?” Ellie asked.

Brylee put her clothes to rights and sat down, grimaced when her butt hit the carpet, and picked up a doll. “It means he stuck his cock into my ass.”

Ridge watched Gage close his eyes, pinch the bridge of his nose, and grin. “She’s a handful, huh?” Ridge asked.

“You have no idea. I was going to let her do the slumber party with the other girls, but now I’m afraid to. She’s in one of her feisty moods.”

Ridge felt an emotion very close to envy at that moment, and it was something he’d never felt before.

“How about we get them settled for the night in the playroom, and then when we go up later, you can grab your little?” Darian said to Gage.

“Works for me.”

“Why don’t you help, Ridge?”

He nodded, set his glass down, and followed the other men up the stairs. He grabbed a stack of pillows and blankets Darian handed to him and followed Kaleb into the playroom.

“Girls, let’s get the beds made on the floor, and then you can get in your PJs and brush your teeth.”

“I’ve got nightgowns for you guys,” Larkin yelled.

It was total chaos for about an hour, but Ridge enjoyed every bit of it. He looked over to see Kaleb squashing Aleena, nibbling on her neck, and her shrieking and giggling.

Finally, the beds were all laid out, and the girls tucked into them. He tried to keep his eyes away from Ellie, but she looked so damn sexy in Larkin’s short nightgown.

Darian turned off the light. Ridge followed him back into the office. He had no idea how long they’d been talking when Gage snorted.

Ridge looked toward the door to see Brylee come through, half asleep, dragging a blanket behind her.

“I can’t sleep,” she said as she stood in front of Gage. He pulled her onto his lap, arranged the blanket, and gave his attention back to the men. It was done so quickly. Ridge knew it had happened many times before.

“It won’t be long now,” Darian said.

Ridge didn’t know what he meant until Larkin walked in and dropped into Darian’s lap.

“I can’t sleep without you, Daddy.”

Darian pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I know, Baby.”

Aleena came through the door not five minutes later.

“What happens with the other three?” Ridge asked as he watched them on the monitor, sitting up and talking.

“They will come down and cuddle on the sofa. And Jenna and Kyla will whine because they want their daddies, but they couldn’t come tonight.”

Ridge looked at the space beside him. Yeah, there was plenty of room for the three.

The three others walked through the doorway.

“Go ahead and get on the sofa with Ridge. It will be better when we all go upstairs.”

“What happens if they can’t settle?” Ridge asked.

“The girls will crash in one of our bedrooms. Tonight, it looks like Gage is it.”
