“Shoot and darn, indeed.”

Kenzie

Why’d Papi have to come home early? She totally could have gotten away with it if he’d arrived at his usual time. She’d have been long done and Cheetos looked enough like those stupid carrots, she’d have been fine; butnoooooo,he justhadto decide to take half a day off.

Now, her Daddy was involved too, and she just knew she was really in for it. If she talked fast, could she maybe charm them into forgetting all about it? Probably not, but it was worth a try, right?

“See, this isn’t what it looks like, Daddy.” She made sure to bat her lashes sweetly and clasp her hands in front of her, knowing that made her look sweet and innocent. She needed all the help she could get.

“Oh? I’d really love to knowwhatit is if itisn’tyou switching out your healthy snacks for junk food.” Her Daddy didn’t look at all like he believed her, but Kenzie was sure she could change that.

“Well, see, what had happened was…” His raised eyebrow made her pause, how the heck could that look be so dang sexy as to distract her when her bottom was on the line? “I was doing my pretty picture in the playroom and then I heard voices in the kitchen. I couldn’t ignore it, if someone was here, I needed to know. Safety is important, right?”

“It is. And how was checking out the voices on your own safe?”

Shoot, she hadn’t thought that part out very well, had she? Kenzie needed to get explaining before she made things worse, so she made sure to rush through the rest of her story. “Well, that’s not important right now. Whatisimportant is that when I got here, the voices were coming from the fridge and pantry. I listened for a minute and then realized the Cheetos and carrots were talking to each other trying to explain to the other the differences in their environments and I decided to help themout by switching them so they couldexperienceit. It’s the whole walking in someone else’s shoes thing. I was just trying to help!”

Well, those arms crossed over his chest and the strict look on his face didn’t bode well for Kenzie’s success but the twinkle of humor in his eyes was promising. Maybe it worked.

“Little girl…” The tone of Papi’s voice indicated to her that her plan wasn’t working well. “That story, while entertaining, isn’t working.”

Well, fudgesicles.

Sebastian

Goddamn, their little girl was cute as a button trying to get out of her predicament. It wasn’t working, but it was still adorable. Sebastian took Kenzie’s hand and led her to Beau.

“What are we going to do with her?” Beau asked, shaking his head, with an exaggerated frown plastered on his handsome face.

“Oh,” Sebastian replied, “I have several ideas.”

His ideas were boundless. Kenzie had a high pain tolerance, since she was quite fond of pain for pleasure. He’d have to make sure her spanking was sufficiently unpleasant to get the point across, but he needed to add something else. Taking her health seriously was one of his most important rules and her antics were in direct opposition. He’d make sure she never considered doing so again.

Sebastian was silent on the walk to their bedroom. It not only gave him time to think back to their conversations and what she said her most dreaded punishments were, it also gave her time to anticipate and wonder what was coming..

By the time they’d made it to the bedroom, Sebastian knew what he had planned. He didn’t know if Beau wanted to add anything to the plan, so he’d have to step away with him to discuss things.

“Your Daddies need to discuss some things so we’re stepping out of the room. We’ll be right outside the door.” He wanted her to be aware they weren’t abandoning her, “While we are away, I want you to strip and to kneel in the center of the bed with your hands on your knees.”

Kenzie stared at the floor as she mumbled, “Yes, Papi.”

Sebastian lifted her face to him with a finger under her chin, making sure she didn’t show too much distress. Worrying over what was going to happen was expected, but he wasn’t about to do anything that would mentally harm her.

“Good girl. We’ll be right back.”

With that, Sebastian took Beau’s hand, and they headed into the hall, leaving her to get ready for their return.

Beau

Beau was more grateful than he cared to admit that Daddy was the main authority when it came to discipline. Of course, Beau would participate but he was happy to hand over the biggest responsibility to Daddy.

Daddy quickly explained his plan before saying, “I wanted to see if there was anything you’d like to add before we begin.”

Thinking about the future and his strong desire for the two of them to make love to Kenzie as one, Beau was quick to say, “There is one thing.”
