Claimed By My Best Friend’s Daddy
“You sure you’re okay, babe? Are you having a misunderstanding with your babe? If it’s Chris, or school stress, or… whatever, you can talk to me. You know that, right?”
I forced the brightest smile I could manage and reached over to squeeze her hand. “I know. I’m fine. Just not in the mood.”
She squeezed back, warm and trusting. “Okay my love, just tell me when you need anything.”
Later, Mirabel’s breathing had evened into sleep, I lay awake staring at the ceiling. My phone glowed under the blanket with one final message from Rhys.
Rhys: Dream of me tonight, sunshine. Because I’ll be dreaming of you. Naked, wet and moaning my name while I claim every inch of what’s mine.
