God. He’d make a beautiful dad one day, too.
There’s something about him. The way his family is so close. It’s obvious he adores his brothers and sister-in-law.
My heart aches at the thought of Xander having a family of his own.
Ofourown.
I close my eyes for a second, letting the thought comfort me before I push it away. Why wish for things that aren’t possible?
“Sip this.” He hands me a small bottle of water with the cap already removed. When I go to take it, he doesn’t let go and instead helps me guide it to my lips. My cheeks burn as he watches me gulp down the cold, refreshing water. After-cry headaches are the worst. At this point, I just need to start over with a shower to clean all the tears, smeared makeup, and everything else off and wash it down the drain.
“I probably look like a disaster,” I murmur, mostly to myself as I use my index finger to wipe under my eyes.
Out of the corner of my eye, I see Xander set down the bottle of water on the nightstand before he reaches out and grasps my chin, holding it in his big palm while staring right at me.
“You are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever laid eyes on. Makeup, no makeup. Sexy clothes, comfortable clothes. Hair up or down. It doesn’t matter. You look perfect, no matter what.” He licks his lips and swallows. “You look like my dream come true.”
We gaze at each other for a few seconds before he leans in and kisses me. It’s soft, but Xander is in full control the entire time as he holds my face exactly where he wants it while using his tongue to explore.
He takes it slow, moving his lips from mine to trail kisses down the side of my neck. And when he gets to the neckline of my tank top, he stops and pulls away, reaching for something on the nightstand.
“Close your eyes and open your mouth.”
My lips curl up into a smile, and I narrow my eyes at him, but he raises his brows, giving me a stern look.
“Listen to Daddy.” His words are soft and quiet, but still laced with steel.
Butterflies erupt low in my belly as I let my lids flutter shut. Slowly, I part my lips and wait. For a second, nothing happens, and I peek at him through my lashes, only to find him staring at me like he’s memorizing every part of me.
“Naughty girl,” he murmurs. “Close them.”
I fight a smile and snap them shut while he unwraps something from foil. A second later, he gently sets something on my tongue, and it instantly starts to melt.
“Mmm.” Chocolate and caramel. The good kind that’s made with premium chocolate and velvety caramel.
“Good girl.”
My core clenches as blood rushes straight to my clit.
This time, when I open my eyes, he’s looking at my mouth, but he flicks his gaze up to mine, his expression distant and sad.
“I’m sorry you had to go through all of that,” he says roughly. “Nothing I say will change what happened to you, but I promise you from this day forward, you don’t ever have to worry about another thing.”
“I’m a big girl, Xander. I can take care of myself.”
Slowly, he brings his index finger up to my lips and gently presses until I open for him. My pussy soaks my panties, and I try not to squirm.
“Suck,” he whispers.
Unable to ignore his command, I draw his finger into my mouth, my eyes locked with his as we stare at each other in dim silence. Heat spreads over my cheeks as a twinge of humiliation hits me and goes straight to my clit, setting my whole body on fire.
“Daddy’s good girl. That’s what you are. So strong, yet still so sweet.”
I continue sucking, finding it weirdly comforting while also turning me on even more than I was already.
He doesn’t pull away for several seconds. When he does, he slides the same finger that was in my mouth into his, licking my saliva from his skin while watching me intently.
“Your knuckles are freshly wrapped.” I glance down at his other hand resting on the bed.
