Rainey opened her mouth, but when Daddy raised his eyebrow, she quickly closed it. She didn’t want to have another hot bottom.
“That’s what I thought.” He kissed her forehead.
She sighed.
“Let’s get you ready for your nap.”
CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT
RAINEY
Rainey had taken her nap and woke up feeling refreshed. Maybe Daddy was right that she needed a nap, but she wouldn’t tell him that. Then he would make her take a nap every day, and she really didn’t want that.
Daddy had left the coffee shop a coupleof hours ago, leaving her to her thoughts. She had tried working, but Echo texted her after Daddy left, saying the meeting was on for tonight.
What was she going to do?
She giggled. She knew what she was going to do, talk to him, but it was so nerve-wracking. Deccan could probably kill her in so many ways.
Would that happen? Would he knock her out first? Take her to a secure location and torture her for information?
Echo told her he didn’t hurt innocent women, but that was kind of hard to believe. With all his tattoos and menacinglook, she figured if someone pissed him off, they would be done for.
Rainey didn’t want to be the first pregnant woman he hurt.
Had he done it before?
She shook her head. Rainey didn’t need to be thinking about this before she met up with him. They weren’t even meeting in the dead of night. It was almost time to close her coffee shop, and then she was heading straight there, the sun just starting to set.
“Why don’t you go home?” Grace suggested. “We have a little more to clean up. You’ve gotten your part done.”
“I’m the boss.”
“So? You’re also pregnant and have been on your feet for several hours. Go home to your Daddy and have a good time.”
Rainey sighed. Her feet were killing her. It felt like a thousand sharp needles were sticking into the bottom of her feet with every step. Excruciating pain, but she had to push through it.
“If there are any problems, I’ll call you immediately. Pinky promise.” Grace held out her pinky.
Wrapping hers around, Rainey nodded. “Okay. Thank you.”
“Welcome, and I’m sorry about earlier. I didn’t mean to make you annoyed or angry.”
Rainey waved her hand. “You’re okay. I was tired. Daddy and I needed to work out some things.”
“Well, as much as I didn’t like it, I’m glad you guys could work things out.”
“Thank you again.”
“Maybe call your Daddy on your way home so when you get there, he can carry you in. I can see the pain flashing across your face every time you walk.”
“Don’t tell him. I will.”
She locked her lips with her fingers. “Your secret is safe with me as long as you tell him. If I find out you didn’t, I will say something. Sorry, but I don’t want you to close permanently because you aren’t taking care of yourself. Everyone loves this coffee shop.”
“I promise I’ll tell him.”
She would tell him after she met up with Deccan. If she did it before, there was no way he would allow her to go out again. He thought she was hanging out with Echo, and she needed that to stick.
