Landon

Once the fire is going strong and I add enough logs to keep it that way for a long time, I take her hand, looking into her eyes so deeply my gut flutters.

“Let’s get you warmed up.” I lead her to the bed and open the sleeping bag. “Strip off. We’ll be warmer skin to skin.”

She nods, not questioning me at all. Her body, as she strips without reservation and modesty, makes my mouth dry.

I hold the top of the sleeping bag up so she can climb in.

“Do I take my socks off?”

“You can keep them on if you want,” I say with a chuckle, looking at the gorgeous woman wearing floppy gray wool socks with a red stripe around the top.

Suddenly conscious of her nakedness, she wraps her arms around herself. “What if those men come here?”

“They’re headed in the other direction. I think we’ll be okay for now.”

Nodding, she slides off her socks.

“Is that blood?”

She looks down. Her ankles and the sides of her big toes are raw and bloodied.

“I didn’t tie my boots properly earlier,” she answers sheepishly and then smirks. “You should probably spank me for that, Daddy.”

My brows rise. “Sounds to me like you’re eager to go across my knee.” I give her a predatory leer.

“No,” she says, elongating the word, her cheeks flushing.

“Baby, Daddy knows. Now what am I going to do with you?” I ask, patting her naked ass as she climbs into the bed.

“I have some ideas,” she answers, watching me with a heated, hungry expression as I unbuckle and shuck off my pants and boxers.

I gather a deep breath before blowing out slowly. Shaking my head, I say seriously, “You’re in trouble, young lady. Daddy’s gonna spank your ass hard. Do you know how many people die from tripping on their untied laces?” I chuckle and she giggles. She’s my girl through and through.
