Page 31 of Daddy's Sinful Baby Girl

“I actually forgot about them. They don’t itch anymore, and I try not to look at myself in the mirror.”

He didn’t seem to like that response.

“Baby, they’re not ugly. I know it’s different with girls, but I don’t see them. I see you.”

She squeezed his hand the rest of the way there. Theydidn’t say anything in the elevator on the way to Kaleb’s office. He stopped her outside the door.

“I’ll be here to pick you up at three-thirty,” he said. “Have fun with your friends.” He kissed her forehead and then nudged her into the office. “Here’s my girl, Kaleb.”

Kaleb looked up from his desk and grinned. “We’re glad you’re here, young lady. Aleena and a few others are already making a schedule for the day.”

“Thank you,” Casey said. She turned and waved at Simon. She tried not to think about the fact that it would be the last time she would see him. Before she got tears in her eyes, she walked into the other room that was attached to Kaleb’s.

“Oh, no,” Brylee said, coming and hugging her tightly. The other two came in for a group hug. “I wish you would talk to him.”

The four separated, and Aleena handed her some tissues.

“He called my daddy last night and asked me if I knew what was going on,” Brylee said.

“We pinky-promised,” Riley reminded her.

“I know. I didn’t say a thing.”

“When is Nia going to be here?” Casey asked.

“In an hour. We said we were going to Kinley’s daddy’s to eat brunch,” Aleena whispered.

Casey’s tension grew as the minutes ticked by. She was surprised Aleena’s daddy let the group leave without a chaperone.

They made it to the basement and found Nia and Sienna waiting in a small SUV.

The girls crawled in.

“Where did you get the car, Nia?”

Nia snorted and looked at Sienna. “I didn’t have to. Sienna seems to know how to get anything we need.”

Sienna rolled her eyes. “Bite me.”

“What’s the address?” Nia asked.

They punched it in, and the map came right up. Nia was careful driving through the city.

“You drive really well,” Casey said. “I’m always scared.”

“You drove here by yourself, didn’t you?” Riley asked.

Casey nodded. “Yes. But I didn’t enjoy it.”

“At least you can drive,” Aleena said. “Nia tried to teach Hanna how to drive, and we ended up in a field.”

Casey smiled. She could absolutely see herself doing something like that if she didn’t concentrate. That’s why she usually ended up with a headache because her body was tense the whole time, especially her shoulders.

The closer they got to her aunt’s and the farther away she got from Simon, her stomach tightened painfully. As they drove down her aunt’s street, she started to get nauseous.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Brylee asked. “I know that man loves you.”

Casey stared at her as they pulled up to the house. It was an old Victorian in need of a paint job. The porch and front door resemble a large mouth, with the door being the tongue. God, what was she doing?
