I would always take her pain on my shoulders, wipe away her sadness, and rip away the shards of who she used to be. How we were together, power play and all, helped mold her into the free woman she was becoming.

Maddie nuzzled her lips against my neck. Her hot breath burned my skin, and her scent engulfed me, filling my nostrils.

She laid her hand flat against my chest and then moved her hips against my thigh, grinding her body against me. Fuck, my cock responded to her. My blood washed through my body, hot and heavy, and filled my length. I slid my hand down her body, reaching for the hem of her dress. Damn her for wearing it, but at the same time, I adored it. Her soft skin was pimpled in goose bumps from the air conditioning, and she leeched the heat from me.

“No,” I groaned, saying it more to myself than to her.

“Daddy?” she asked in a husky voice.

Fuck, she would be my undoing.

“We can’t,” I said.

She didn’t stop rotating her hips against my thigh. I wouldn’t have believed mynoeither with how weak my voice had been, or how strongly my cock pressed into her. I was basically trying to convince myself before I found the composure to tell her no.

“Tomorrow,” I said. No, I promised.

“Daddy?” she whimpered.

“Tomorrow, Maddie.” I made it more of a command now, rocking away from her.

She pouted like an insolent child.

I pushed her hair off her forehead. “You’ll earn a spanking for sticking that bottom lip out.” That, and how she seemed intent on giving me a fucking cockstand. The last thing I needed was Kimmers coming into my hospital room and yelling at us like we horny teenagers. In a way, we were.

“Tomorrow,” I repeated. “Get off the bed.”

She slid off the bed, head bowed. Her hair curled around her shoulders.

The pillow had slipped and my hard-on was obvious, so I pulled the blankets around my waist, needing more of a shield. I repeatedtomorrowto myself like a mantra. I would be deep inside her tomorrow.

“Tomorrow is too far away,” said Maddie with a small whine. “And I’m already so wet.”

I could smell her arousal, so she didn’t need to tell me. Still, I loved that she felt free enough to do so.

“Stay that wet for me until I get home tomorrow,” I ordered, and she bobbed her head.

Grabbing her chin, I brought her up to face me. “Eyes on me.”

Those maple pools lifted obediently. She would think of me and maybe even fuck herself.

“Your orgasms, though, are mine. No coming without me.”

“I can be here to pick you up tomorrow. Mel can drive us,” said Maddie quickly. “From the hospital, I mean.”

Tightening my grip on her chin, I chided, “Maddie...”

“I promise,” she said.

“Promise what?”

“I won’t come without you.”

Fuck! That made my balls draw up.

“You’re not picking me up.” I shook my head. “I want you athome. Working on that list. You better be wet and ready when I walk through that door.”

Lanie would drive me home, which was a shame. She would want to come inside the house and speak to Maddie, while all I needed was the most primal connection with my girl. I wouldn’t hide that from Lanie, either. If her sister wouldn’t leave us, I would fuck Maddie right in front of her.
