Chapter Fifteen

~ Noah ~

Poppy’s heat radiated through my boxers while her legs bracketed my hips. It was perfect. Until suddenly, she whined, wiggling under me.

“You okay, little lamb?”

“Daddy, I need you so much,” she said in that little breathy voice that tickled along my spine and made me harder than granite.

With one hand, I brushed her hair back from her face and gazed down at her. “Are you sure?”

My little head and my brain were at odds, still conflicted by the soul deep need wracking me. We were both adults, and I knew what I wanted, but I also needed to hear from her, one last time, that this was exactly what she wanted.

She stared up at me, her eyes filled with her passion, yet remarkably clear, as well. “If you stop, I might die. I know I’ll cry. I want you, Noah. I’ve wanted you since almost the first time I saw you—and that’s a long time ago now. That’s never wavered, never changed at all.”

In contrast to her words, she pushed on my chest. Brow furrowed, I levered away and Poppy slipped out from under me. Twisting, I sat up, knees bent, hands dangling between, while I watched her stand a few feet from me. Her hands went to the belt of her robe. A moment later, she started peeling it away, and my mouth went dry.

“Another present for you,” she said, letting that garment drop and revealing the alluring holiday outfit beneath it.

“Fuck me,” I whispered.

“I hope so,” she answered and cocked her hip to the side, propping her hand on it. I’m sure she intended to be sultry, and she was alluring, but damn she was adorable.

Adorable and mine. My little lamb.

Widening my legs, I held out my hands to her.

“Come here, sweet girl.”

“I can’t believe this is happening,” she said as she obeyed me and came to stand between my knees, her skirt swishing along the few inches of creamy skin revealed above those thigh-highs—which were definitely staying on while I made her mine.

“Only if you want it.”

Her fingers carded through my hair while she gazed down at me as I held onto her hips. Her eyes were filled with heat and no reservations, but the situation demanded I go against my baser instincts, the ones that demanded I let loose my inner caveman. This time around, I listened to reason over craving.

The hundreds of times in our future, I’d have no such reserve.

“I’m yours. As long as you want me.” Her voice trembled slightly at the end, revealing her inner turmoil.

“Never doubt that. I want you more than I’ve ever wanted anything.”

I pulled her even closer, and my thumbs edged up her tiny skirt, revealing her bare pussy.

“Naughty girl,” I growled. “You’ve been sitting here without panties this whole time.”

Her breaths shuddered. “I’m not sorry, Daddy.”

“Hmm,” I rumbled. “And what should I do about this? Punish you?”

The air from my words wafted across her smooth skin, and when I inhaled through my barely parted lips, her sweet flavor tantalized my senses. The next inspiration filled my lungs with her scent. She infiltrated every part of me, without even a taste. She remade me, forming me to be only hers. And she had no idea.

I kissed the top of her slit, the tip of my tongue snaking out to sample her delicate, creamy arousal.

Fuck me…My cock immediately jerked, leaking precum into my boxer-briefs. She’d undo me in three seconds if I didn’t clamp down on my control.

Reaching around, I found the simple fastener on her skirt and released it. The garment dropped to her feet, and she stepped free of it. Hands clamped on her hips, I pulled her closer again then slipped my grip forward to part her with my thumbs. My mouth was there immediately to seal over the aroused bud of her clit.

Poppy cried out, her knees buckling while she grasped at me. Never letting go of my prize, I turned her and settled her on the edge of the bed, spreading her thighs wide so I could dive in. Maybe, I should have felt bad about going down on one of the students from the trip, but as of two nights ago, I no longer gave a crap about it. And going down on her was the least of my decades worth of future plans, which included watching her smooth little belly swell with my baby.
