His face is a twisted mess of scars and pain but his eyes… Oh, God, they are my Daddy’s eyes, there’s no denying that.
“We need to be quiet.” I nod toward the front of the house where the stairs lead to the bedroom. “The baby is sleeping with Brigid.”
“I guess I missed a lot while I was away.”
“I concur.” I leave it at that as the tingle in my nipples tells me I’m still in love with this man.
“Where’s your father?” he asks, looking around at the boxes in various stages of packing.
“Doing two to five. I don’t want to talk about that.”
Dietrich slides his hand behind my neck, resting his forehead on mine and releases an uneven breath, but I’m still hurting.
“I needed you and you weren’t here.”
“That will never happen again.” He raises his head, his eyes full of sorrow. “I didn’t wake up for three months. Then it was another eight before I remembered anything. I left to keep you safe. To secure a future for us. For you. I had to go and I was going to come right back.”
“Things are different now.”
“Nothing’s fucking different. Not with us.” His lips are on my neck and my resolve is weakening. “Daddy would never leave you. Not by choice.”
“You mean that?”
“You’re my special girl.” His blue eyes rove over me as I run my palm upward, trying to cover the black and blue mark before he sees.
Those words send a jolt of heat over my skin as my throat tightens and Dietrich pulls something out of his front pocket, turning up his hand to reveal the most incredible ruby ring I’ve ever seen. My mouth hangs open as my legs start to shake.
“You have to believe me. You are everything. You make me smile. I can’t live without you. I’ve never felt whole before you. I want to spend every day waking up with you. Washing dishes and doing all the things I’ve missed my whole life. I’ve never thought of forever with anyone before, but without you in my life, I don’t want another day. Please, baby, marry me. Just say you’ll marry me.”
I should say no. There are a million reasons why this is a bad idea. The timing is bad, it doesn’t make sense right now but I’m not listening to reason because I crumple into the chair, nodding as my heart celebrates.
The ring is on my finger before I can tell Dietrich about the baby. The words lodge in my throat as he pulls me onto him, my legs wrap around his back and I feel the hard muscles as I grab on.
“Where’s a bed? Closest one.”
I point down the hall where Brigid and I have turned my father’s old bedroom into a reading room with a daybed and an old chair we repurposed from a dumpster.
I’m shaking with need as goosebumps form over my skin and his tongue lashes with mine. All the hoping and wishing I’ve done over the last year comes true in that moment.
His fingers tangle in my hair as I cling to him and he presses his body on top of mine on the daybed.
“It’s small.” He grunts as he stands, stripping off his t-shirt and I see the tangle of scars covering his thick torso. “But we’ll make do.”
Buttons pop and ricochet around the room as he rips my shirt open, my pink nursing bra exposed but he’s hell bent on my southern hemisphere.
“Daddy’s missed your taste.” He flips my skirt up, yanking my panties down my legs and driving his tongue deep into my opening as I bite back a scream and release a long overdue orgasm on his new face. “That’s my fucking girl.”
He’s up again, jerking own his zipper and plowing into me without a word. He’s pumping in and out before I have time to steady myself but his thrusts are savage. My breath is driven from my lungs with each beastly drive going deep, deeper, deeper.
He covers my screams with his palm, his hot breath against my ear.
“Daddy’s missed his little girl’s cunt. You’ve kept it safe for me, haven’t you? You’ve not let anyone else touch what’s mine.” He bares his teeth against my jugular as I shake my head wildly back and forth.
“No one. No one ever.”
“Good fucking girl. Your whole life is with me now. Get used to that. You’ll not breathe without me next to you. I’ll feed you and pay for you and give you everything that sweet little heart desires, but you’ll take care of me too, won’t you?”
I nod, his pace wild, the bed knocking off the wall with his manic drives in and out. “Yes, yes…” I manage between being pummeled. “Your cock doesn’t seem to be any worse for wear.”
He releases a low chuckle against my throat. “That’s right. You’ll be sucking and fucking your husband every day from now on.”
