Page 10 of Layla's Daddy

My mouth seems to want to continue sucking, so I absentmindedly bring my thumb to my lips.

Theo stands and tucks the stuffed bear in my arms. I think he’s left the room for good, but a minute later, he’s back. I can hear his footsteps, but I’m too tired to open my eyes. I whimper when he gently tugs my thumb from my mouth. “This will be better for you, Little one.”

Something else slips into my mouth. A nipple. It startles me, so I open my eyes to see Theo holding a pacifier in my mouth. I try not to panic. It’s not like he doesn’t know I’m Little. Apparently he likes his Little girls to play at a younger age.

The truth is the nipple feels so good in my mouth, and I easily start suckling. It calms me. It feels good. Why have I never tried a bottle or a pacifier before? I’ve never considered experimenting with a younger age. It wouldn’t be practical since I live alone and don’t have a caregiver.

Managing bottles and pacifiers on my own would be tedious. I’ve hovered at a slightly older age in my apartment and at the Dungeon. But this feels…nice. I might like it.

I’m smiling behind the pacifier as I drift off.

Chapter Five

When I wake, my skull feels like it’s going to bust out of my head. I whimper at the pain and wonder how long I’ve been asleep. I clasp the sides of my head with both hands and turn toward the two bottles of medicine sitting on the nightstand.

I haven’t taken any yet, and part of the reason is because I didn’t want to tell Theo that I’m not good at swallowing pills. I never have been. But my head really hurts.

“Hey there…” Theo rushes toward me. “Oh, sweet girl. Your head must be pounding. You fell asleep so fast, I didn’t have a chance to get some painkillers in you.”

I whimper again, realizing my mouth is full of the pacifier, keeping me from speaking.

Theo has a sippy cup with him this time. It looks like it’s filled with water. I’m suddenly very thirsty.

Theo pops the pacifier from my mouth before he reaches for one of the bottles, twists off the top, and shakes a giant pill into his hands.

My eyes go wide and I gasp. Even though it hurts, I shake my head. “Can’t…”

“Can’t what, Little one?”

“I can’t swallow that,” I admit, my lip trembling. I really want to, but I’ll feel even worse if I gag and vomit.

I’m surprised by how easily Theo puts the pill back in the bottle and replaces the top without argument. I’m still staring at him as he grabs the other bottle. “Good thing Connor called in two forms of medicine then, huh?”

I narrow my gaze. I’m still holding my head. The bottle doesn’t have a dropper in it, nor does it look like a liquid. In fact, the pill Theo dumps onto his palm this time is even larger than the first one. It’s a clear capsule, but there’s no way in hell I could swallow it.

I purse my lips, whimper, and turn my head away.

Theo chuckles. “You have no idea how cute you are, Layla. This doesn’t go in your mouth, Little one. It’s a suppository.”

I frown and glance at him. I can’t remember what that word means.

Theo sets the monster pill on the nightstand and cups my face. “It goes in your bottom, Little one. It will dissolve faster there and make your head stop hurting quicker.”

I draw in a breath and clench my butt cheeks. No way. I shake my head defiantly even though it hurts to do so.

“Layla… One or the other. In the future, when you’re no longer stubborn and you know you’re my Little girl, I won’t give you options, but for today, I’ll let you choose. You can either swallow the medicine or let Daddy put it in your bottom.”

I shake my head again. Damn, that hurts. I need to stop that.

“I know you don’t want to swallow the oral pills, Layla, so I’m going to roll you to the side and put the medicine in your bottom. There’s no reason to be embarrassed. Daddies take care of their Little girls in every way.”

I may be hurting. In fact, my tailbone is on fire from lying on my back, my elbows are throbbing, and so are the scrapes onmy butt cheeks, but that doesn’t mean I’m bad enough to let this giant Daddy put medicine in my naughty hole.

Theo grabs the pacifier and holds it up to my lips, tapping them. “Open up, Little one. This will help soothe you.”

I pout, lips pursed. “Uh uh.” I know he’s right. I liked the way the pacifier feels in my mouth. I’ve never had one before. I’ve been missing out.

“Layla…” His voice is kind, but there’s a hint of warning in there that makes me clench my butt again. I wonder if he’s the sort of Daddy who spanks naughty girls. I love getting spanked. My friends, Amelia and Sophia, and I used to intentionally misbehave at the Dungeon in order to fulfill our spanking needs. Sophia and I haven’t pulled any shenanigans at the club since Amelia left. It’s been a while since someone spanked me.
