Page 12 of Koa’s Little Girl (Soldier Daddies #8)

B y two the next afternoon, Giana had decided she was happier now than she’d ever been before. She’d curled up on Koa’s hard chest with his arm wrapped around her as they watched cartoons. Jelly and Tiger were so happy to be together again. They played on the couch next to her, sticking close.

Peeking over at her daddy, she checked to make sure he wasn’t getting bored. She suspected Koa hadn’t spent too many days vegging out on the couch, but he was an expert at helping her relax and entertaining her with how much he needed to learn about popular programs she loved.

“So, he’s a sponge, and he lives under the sea?” Koa double-checked.

“That’s right, Daddy. And we’re going to see a movie next about a strange dog that lives in Hawaii.”

“A blue dog?” Koa asked, obviously trying hard to remember all she’d taught him that morning.

“Yes. But not the blue dog that lives in Australia. That’s a different show,” she reminded him.

“Right,” he said, drawing out that word as if he was totally confused. “You’d better hang around for a while, so I get all of this straight.”

“Okay, Daddy. I can do that.” She stretched up to kiss the corner of his mouth, but Koa turned his head to meet her lips fully. “Mmm,” she hummed as the heat built between them.

She jerked away when his phone blared the national anthem. “Who’s that?”

“Jerico or Caden. Let’s see who’s inviting us to dinner.”

Koa answered the phone. “Hi, Caden. Barbecue at your house tonight? I’m supposed to pick up a dessert the girls would enjoy.” He looked at Giana to check whether she’d want to go. “Pippa and Aspen are going to be there?”

Giana nodded quickly. She’d love to see her friends and spend some time with their daddies as well as the other men on the team.

“Count us in. Are you sure you don’t want me to bring wings?” he joked.

Giana shook her head vigorously and then chuckled as she realized that had become a joke with the others. Her daddy was amazing and didn’t have any trouble making fun of himself or admitting he’d screwed up.

When he disconnected from the call, Koa asked, “What kind of dessert should we pick up?”

“Cookies and ice cream. We had a big debate over what flavor of each treat combines to make the best cookiewiches.”

“Sounds like the three of you enjoy each other’s company.”

“We do. We have a lot in common and enough differences that we don’t bore each other. Both Pippa and Aspen think you’re great. Not as handsome as their daddies, but what do they know?”

“Yeah, what do they know?” Koa repeated, grinning at her.

He had no idea how hot he was when he smiled like that. It did all sorts of things to her tummy inside each time. Squeezing her thighs together, she felt the simmering arousal that had lingered from simply being close to him flare higher. She whirled her fingertip in the silky strands on his chest.

“Maybe we should take a nap if we’re going to a party tonight?” she suggested.

“That’s a good idea,” he agreed immediately and scooped her onto his lap. Standing, he carried her back to his room and pulled her T-shirt over her head. Koa cupped her bare breasts, running his rough thumbs over her nipples.

Instantly, that growing heat combusted to need. She swayed closer, pressing her breasts fully into his hands. Koa’s fingers trailed down to her waistband and unfastened her shorts.

“I have to be naked to nap?” Giana asked, playfully batting her eyes at him.

“It’s the nap law. You can ask your friends tonight if you need to check.”

“I can’t ask them that!”

“Of course you can. You could ask their daddies if you prefer…” Koa’s voice faded away as he drew her shorts and panties to her ankles.

“I’ll ask Pippa and Aspen,” she rushed to assure him.

“Good idea.” He tapped her foot, signaling for her to lift it.

“Has everyone had a little girl before?” Giana asked, stepping out of her clothing.

“Yes. In various degrees of seriousness. Somehow everyone on the team is a committed daddy. I don’t know if our similar preferences make us work better together automatically, or if our daddy sides bond us closer so we synchronize on a higher level.

Either way, I’ve never seen a group operate as well as we do. ”

“I’m glad, Daddy. I want you to come home safely.

” Giana’s eyes filled with tears. She’d avoided thinking of the possibility of Koa not returning from a mission.

As a person with a high-risk job herself, Giana thought she was immune from worrying about what could happen tomorrow.

That invulnerability flew out the window when she thought about Koa.

“Hey, Flame. It’s okay, baby.” He stood and scooped her up in his arms. He sat on the side of the bed to cradle her, rocking her slowly. “Shh!”

“I-I’m sorry,” Giana choked out.

“Thank you for caring about me, Flame. I worry about you too. I’d wish we both had boring desk jobs, but I don’t think we’d be happy there.”

“No. That would be torture,” she admitted, wiping the tears from her cheeks.

“No one knows when it’s their time to go. We need to treasure every day we have together, little girl.”

He kissed her softly as he stroked her hair. “You are so precious to me. Is it too quick for me to tell you I love you, Giana?”

The breath caught in her chest as she studied his face. She couldn’t detect any sign of fakery or deceit. His expression was caring and open. “You love me?” she asked.

“With all my heart, Giana.”

She struggled with what to say. Huge feelings toward him filled her, but she wasn’t ready to tell him yet. “I…”

He kissed her, stopping her from talking. His lips moved softly on hers. Wooing and tempting her to focus only on the kiss. His hands moved on her skin, stroking and caressing her as if he had a million minutes and wanted to spend all of them with her.

Giana wrapped her arms around his neck and abandoned herself to the sensations he created. Pushing away her awkwardness and previous sadness, Koa forced her to focus on the now—to enjoy the sweet heat that he built inside her.

Koa leaned back, carrying her with him as he reclined on the bed. Giana squirmed on top of him, turning to stretch herself over him. She pressed her knees into the mattress, straddling his pelvis. A low moan burst from her lips as his thick cock slid against her intimately.

“You have too many clothes on,” she protested and scooted off Koa to tug at his shorts.

Helping her, Koa lifted his hips, allowing her to draw the cotton fabric over his impressive shaft. She’d never get used to seeing his body. Chiseled and toned, Koa was pure power filling in a handsome wrapper. His island ancestry gave him an exotic flair that set him apart from others.

She tossed away the material in her hands as Koa got rid of the T-shirt he’d removed for her. “You are so hot,” she whispered, running her hands over his muscles. She pressed a kiss to his chest and daringly whisked her tongue over his nipple.

His low moan pushed her arousal even higher. Nothing was off limits with Koa. He made her want to try everything.

She trailed her fingers down the center of his chest and hesitated just shy of his erection. “Um, can I kiss you here, Daddy?”

His cock jerked as she watched, and Giana flicked her short nails along his skin, getting dangerously close to touching him.

“I would love to feel your lips on my cock, Flame. Turn around and straddle my face.”

“What?” She looked at him in shock. He didn’t mean what she thought he did… Did he?

“Come here, Giana. I need a taste of your honey as you explore.”

Koa gripped her hips and moved Giana effortlessly to face down the length of his body.

Then he helped her scoot over his face into the position he desired with her calves tucked under his arms. Sexual heat had to radiate down to him as she hovered over him.

Giana started to close her eyes, imagining the view he must have, but noticed her own.

She lowered herself, licking the length of his shaft from base to tip.

When he cursed behind her, she knew he enjoyed her caresses.

Giana swirled her tongue around the velvety head and felt his fingers tighten on her hips.

The slight touch of pain added to the sensual experience.

She’d remember this moment each time she spotted a bruise.

“I’m not going to last long like this, Flame. Stop when I tell you. I want to come buried deep inside your heat.”

Giana wrapped her lips around his shaft and hummed her agreement. “Um-hmmm.”

His grip tightened, and he drew her pussy to his lips.

He nibbled and tasted her, making her eyes cross with the sensations.

Struggling to remember her goal to drive him crazy as he pushed every blooming thought from her mind, Giana gripped the base of his shaft firmly and slid her mouth over his cock.

Swallowing his entire erection would be impossible, but she was going to try her best.

Sensual sounds filled the surrounding space, adding to the eroticism of their lovemaking. Giana abandoned all embarrassment and inhibitions and focused only on the pleasure they created. Vivid tingles heralded her approaching climax, and Giana focused on driving him crazy.

His roar made Giana lift her head away from his shaft.

That was the only warning she got. Koa tossed her safely onto her back on the mattress and pounced.

Moving with tiger-like grace, he thrust fully into her, stretching and filling Giana.

Instantly, her approaching orgasm exploded, and her body tightened around him.

“Giana!” he shouted as his hot cum filled her. His thrusts never paused until her pleasure ignited into a second body-shaking sensation.

“Daddy!” she whispered, clinging tightly to him.

When his heart rate slowed, Koa shifted their bodies under the covers. Giana curled against him, closing her eyes. She didn’t understand how being with him could be so magical, but she hoped this would never end.
