By the time I make my tea and retreat to my bedroom, I’ve nearly convinced myself I’m being foolish and stupid and paranoid.

The house is old and sprawling, Margaret is attentive and completely emotionless. I’m tired, overaware, still tender from a night that opened too many locked rooms inside me. Not every strange feeling is a warning. Sometimes a misplaced book is only a misplaced book; sometimes a woman who has run a household for years simply knows when someone needs a bath.

  • Wanting His Father; Daddy Dom/ LG Forbidden Romance   Chapter 42

    THOMASBy the time I turn into the drive, it’s fully dark.Rain glistens across the stone sweep before Ashcroft Manor, turning the grounds silver beneath the exterior lights, and for a moment I remain seated behind the wheel while the engine settles into silence around meThe day has been long in the way only expensive days can be long: meetings, negotiations, lawyers charging extraordinary amounts of money to explain things I already know. Ordinarily I’d spend the journey home preparing for tomorrow's problems. Instead, I spent it thinking about my sweet baby girl.At my age, I shouldn’t be counting the hours since I last saw a woman. I shouldn’t be wondering whether she remembered to eat lunch, whether she spent the afternoon reading, whether the rain kept her indoors. Yet somewhere between office and home, my thoughts have returned to her again and again with the stubborn persistence of a habit that I never intended to form.I miss her, and I place her above my day-to-day business

    By the time I make my tea and retreat to my bedroom, I’ve nearly convinced myself I’m being foolish and stupid and paranoid.The house is old and sprawling, Margaret is attentive and completely emotionless. I’m tired, overaware, still tender from a night that opened too many locked rooms inside me. Not every strange feeling is a warning. Sometimes a misplaced book is only a misplaced book; sometimes a woman who has run a household for years simply knows when someone needs a bath.I tell myself this while peeling off damp clothes and wrapping myself in a robe. I tell myself this again when I find a silver hairpin lying on the bedside table. The hairpin should be in the bathroom… in Daddy’s bathroom.I remember him placing it beside the tub last night, after he removed it from my curls with those slow, careful fingers that made the simplest gesture feel intimate enough to bruise. The memory brings heat to my face before confusion can fully settle.Perhaps I moved it. Perhaps he did. Per

  • Wanting His Father; Daddy Dom/ LG Forbidden Romance   Chapter 40

    IRISThe next morning arrives wrapped in more rain.I wake slowly and alone, surfacing through the heavy warmth of Daddy’s bed to the soft percussion of water against the windows. For several quiet moments I simply lie there beneath the blankets, staring at the pale grey ceiling while the memory of the previous night drifts through me like steam.The bath. His voice. His hands. The way he held me afterward, not as though I were fragile, but as though I were something precious enough to handle carefully. That distinction matters to me, I realize. Fragile things are pitied, but precious things are protected.A strange ache settles beneath my ribs, tender and frightening in equal measure, because trust has never arrived gently in my life. It’s always come with hidden teeth, with conditions tucked beneath affection, with the awful knowledge that tenderness could turn without warning if I breathed wrong or wanted too much.Daddy is different, and that’s the dangerous part. He’s never deman

  • Wanting His Father; Daddy Dom/ LG Forbidden Romance   Chapter 39

    MARGARETI should have left when Thomas dismissed me for the evening. Instead, I waited until the last of the downstairs lights dimmed, then slipped quietly back through the west corridor like something shameful.I tell myself that I don’t know why, but of course that’s a lie. The truth is far dirtier: I want to know if she’s in his room again. So now, I’m standing barefoot in the dark hallway outside my employer’s bedroom like a pathetic, starving thing.The manor is silent around me. Old wood. Rain whispering faintly against distant windows. The low hum of the storm still hanging over the cliffs beyond the estate.And through the slightly-open bedroom door –Her.I close my eyes for one terrible second as Iris makes another sound inside his room. Soft. Broken. Pleasured.I should leave. Every sensible instinct I possess tells me exactly that. This is humiliating. Dangerous. Insane.Then Thomas speaks:“Good girl.”The words drift through the crack in the door, low and velvet-smooth,

  • Wanting His Father; Daddy Dom/ LG Forbidden Romance   Chapter 38

    THOMASI know she's exhausted now. I can feel it in the way she's curled against me beneath the bubble-less bathwater, boneless and heavy in my arms, her breathing slow and uneven as she drifts somewhere between contentment and sleep.The storm beyond the windows has softened to a chilly, steady rain, and the bathroom feels suspended outside the rest of the world. The water laps quietly against porcelain. Iris remains tucked against my chest as though she's forgotten there’s anywhere else she could possibly be. I know that I’m going to have get things moving now, or we’ll both fall asleep, here in this cooling water.“Baby girl.”She makes a soft humming sound. Not quite a response, it’s more an acknowledgment that she’s heard me and has absolutely no intention of exerting any further effort.I glance down, and see that her beautiful eyes are closed. I’ve never seen anyone look more comfortable, and part of me hates to disturb her. But it has to be done."We need to get out now,” I sa

    IRISI want your hands on me, Daddy. Inside me. Touching me deep, and sweet, and hard.The confession trembles in the humid air between us, and for one dreadful heartbeat, I’m certain that I’ve gone too far. The words feel impossibly naked, more exposing somehow than the water lapping at my skin, more vulnerable than the way I’m tucked against him in the bath. I want to take them back almost as soon as they leave me.Instead, his arm tightens around my waist. Not abruptly, not possessively. Simply with a quiet certainty that makes my breath catch.He draws me more firmly against him beneath the water, and the hard warmth of his body settles along mine like something inevitable. Steam drifts through the room in pale silver ribbons, softening the edges of everything around us until the bathroom feels suspended outside time, but there’s nothing dreamlike about the awareness gathering between us.On the contrary, actually, it feels far too real.“Again,” he says quietly.I can barely thin
