Daddy made a thinking sound. “Your face is my sweet boy. Your thoughts are naughty.”

Oops.

Happy thoughts.

Sweet thoughts.

Mate thoughts.

“That’s more suspicious…just to let you know.” Daddy shrugged when I gave him a Daddy frown. “I had to be honest.”

No.

“That’s not how it works, Daddy.” He was so silly. “Lorne told the men at the diner. Daddies don’t be honest if it makes their littles sad.”

Daddy raised one eyebrow.

Daddy huffed.

“Show me which book you want me to read you.” Daddy was stubborn. “Why is it on your tablet? What kind of book is this? Is it too violent?”

Hmm.

Cheek kiss time.

Daddy groaned. “It’s that violent? At least tell me it’s not…naughty.”

“Daddies have to be honest…do littles?” I wasn’t sure I was going to agree to that.

“Dragons above.” Daddy frowned bigger and bigger. “How naughty is this? Violence and naughty time?”

Yes.

“They’re special, Daddy. They’re not human, so it’s okay.” Kenzie said so. “The librarian said so.”

Kind of.

Daddy’s head cocked. “You haven’t been out of my sight all day…wait…twice to go to the bathroom. How in the great sky above did you manage to get into a dirty book conversation with the librarian?”

So I could lie?

“He came to visit his Daddy.” Boyd liked the closet too. Everybody liked the closet. “He’s nice.”

And not too loud like Kenzie.

But Daddy wouldn’t want to know that, so I was good and gave him two cheek kisses. He groaned and rested his head back on the wall. “Really? It’s two cheek kisses worthy?”

Yep.

I giggled.

Daddy groaned again. “Fine. Book time. I’m going to pretend it’s not violent and naughty, though.”

How?

“They love each other lots and lots, Daddy.” That made it better. “And they have fights and adventures and they save the day. It’s just a little naughty. Oh, and thenot too violentman likes tables. I like tables too, Daddy.”

Daddy cocked his head. “Tables?”
