EPILOGUE TWO

TICK TOCK

The leather on my back didn’t feel so heavy these days. Not because the load was lighter, but because the home I came back to made it easier to carry.

"I'm home," I called out as I pushed open the door, my voice rough from all the whiskey shots they'd passed around during the meeting.

I was met with silence and then I heard a softer voice coming from down the hall. I smirked knowingly because it was familiarly laced with heat and mischief. "Bedroom."

I shrugged off my cut and draped it over the back of the chair. "Where's Gabe?"

"I let him stay with December and the kids tonight," Natalia said, voice purring now.

Something in me clicked. That tone was like velvet laced with sin. She knew exactly what it did to me. I walked into the bedroom, and the sight before me made me stop in my tracks.

She was on all fours, perched on the bed like a goddamn fantasy come to life. Her curves were dipped in soft moonlight, a sleek black set of velvet ears perched on her head, and around her throat was the silver collar I’d given her. The one with the tiny bell that chimed each time she moved.

It hadn't just been a symbol of ownership for us. It was a promise that she would forever be mine. That I wasn't letting her go. She had been so happy when I'd brought it home that I knew this had meant more than any ring that I could put on her finger. Not that I hadn't bought one of those too.

She turned her head slowly, her eyes catching the light. "Missed you, Daddy."

Jesus.

My cock always twitched at the sound of that word slipping from her lips. It didn't matter how old she got, she still looked so damn innocent.

I stepped closer, slowly peeling off my shirt, every muscle in my body drawn tight. The scent of her arousal hung in the air, sweet and heavy.

She crawled toward the edge of the bed, her hips swaying, every movement a deliberate tease. "I've been waiting all night. Thought I’d surprise you."

My eyes dragged down her spine, to the curve of her ass. Her body was sinful, a fucking masterpiece sculpted in temptation and wrapped in desire.

I sat in the armchair in the corner, naked now, my cock thick and pulsing in my hand as I leaned back. "Show me what you brought me, kitten."

Her cheeks flushed, but she obeyed. Slowly, deliberately, she reached beside her and pulled out a sleek black anal plug, a soft kitten's tail attached to it, dark and silky, matching her ears.

I groaned low in my throat. "That for me?"

She nodded, biting her lip as she turned around, presenting herself. "Good girl. Lube it up. I want to see you play with that pretty hole."

She reached for the lube, the bottle making a quiet click as she squeezed it into her hand. Her fingers worked over the plug first, then between her cheeks. She let out a breathy moan as she touched herself, fingers sliding deeper.

"Slower," I growled. "Take your time. I want to savor every goddamn second."

She moved just the way I liked, hips rocking in time with her breath, then finally positioned the plug and eased it in with a soft cry.

"Perfect," I rasped, stroking myself harder now. "Now bring that sweet ass over here."

She crawled to me, tail swaying, her collar jingling with every step. Her eyes locked on my cock keeping her lips parted.

I gripped the base and offered her the cum-dripped tip. "Lick it. Show me how much you missed me."

Her lips parted, tongue lapping at the bead of precum at my tip like it was her favorite treat, soft little moans slipping from her mouth as she tasted me. Her moan vibrated against me, and my head fell back with a curse.

"Fuck, my Kitten was hungry, wasn't she?"

Her response was to take me deeper, her mouth warm and wet, tongue swirling with every stroke, every pull. She was milking my damn cock with her throat. Her nails dug into my thighs as she bobbed her head, and I knew I wasn’t going to last long.

"Such a good girl," I murmured, watching her closely, the flicker of submission and lust in her gaze drove me mad. My cock jerked in response, thick and pulsing, the ache nearly unbearable.

I hissed, gripping the armrest to keep from losing control. She knew exactly what she was doing to me. How to work me until I was damn near undone. Her mouth slid deeper, her tongue wrapping around the base, her throat welcoming me like she’d been made for it.

"Fuck, kitten… Daddy’s gonna explode if you keep doing that."

She sucked harder, sloppier, her eyes locked on mine. That look was hungry and possessive, aimed at pushing me to the fucking edge.

I groaned deep in my chest and yanked her off me just as I hit the brink. She gasped, lips wet, chin slick, her breaths ragged and wanting.

"Not yet," I growled, dragging her up onto my lap, the tip of my cock brushing between her thighs, teasing her soaked folds. "You know Daddy likes to edge. We’re just getting started."

"Not yet, kitten," I growled, grabbing a fistful of her hair and tilting her head so she looked up at me, eyes wide and shining. "Daddy's not done with you yet."

She whimpered, the sound vibrating straight through my bones, her pussy hot against my thigh as she began to grind herself on it.

"Needy, little kitten."

I lifted her in my arms, her legs wrapping around my waist as she peppered kisses along my throat. My cock pulsed against her pussy with every step as I carried her to the bed and bent her over the edge.

The tail, swaying with every breath she took, framed her ass perfectly. My cock twitched violently at the sight.

I trailed my fingers over her slick folds, her hips jerking up at the first contact.

"You like it when Daddy pets your little cunny?"

"Y...yes, Daddy," she whimpered.

"I bet you do. Such a dirty pet."

I spanked her pussy once, then again, watching the soft pink bloom across her wet folds. Her moans were choked and breathless, her knees spreading wider.

"Stay still," I ordered.

I knelt, gripping her thighs and burying my face between them. My tongue slid up her center, tasting her, claiming her. She cried out, grinding back onto my face as I licked and sucked her clit, slow and deep.

Her body trembled as I moved the plug, twisting it with each lash of my tongue.

"Daddy, please," she begged, her voice high and wrecked.

"Not until I say so."

But I couldn't wait much longer. Her taste, her scent, her body, everything about her called to the filthiest parts of me.

I pulled the plug free and replaced it with my cock in one hard thrust.

"Oh fuck!" she screamed.

"That's it, Kitten. Take Daddy's cock."

I pounded into her, one hand gripping her hip, the other tangled in her hair as I fucked her with deep, brutal strokes. Her body jolted with every thrust, that bell causing my cock to jerk inside her as her moans echoed off the walls.

"You feel that? That’s mine. All fucking mine."

She screamed when I reached around and rubbed her clit, her orgasm tearing through her.

"That’s my good girl," I groaned, my balls tightening.

"Fill me up, Daddy. Your kitten needs your cream."

"Fuuucck," her words her filthy and did the job perfectly. I let go inside her with a deep growl, thick ropes of cum spilling deep as she milked me with her pulsing cunt.

I collapsed over her, panting against her neck. My arms wrapped around her waist as I cradled her to me, both of us trembling in the aftermath.

She turned her head, her lips brushing my cheek. "I have something to tell you."

"Mmhmm," I murmured into her neck.

"Remember how I said I wanted another baby…"

I lifted my head slightly to look at her. "Yeah," I said, narrowing my eyes playfully. "Why?"

She bit down on her lip, a wicked little smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. "I took a test this morning. I’m pregnant."

I froze, my breath catching for a heartbeat before joy erupted in my chest like a goddamn supernova. My grin spread slowly, stretching wide as I pulled her closer, kissing her face, her lips, her nose.

"Marry me," I whispered between each kiss.

She laughed, tugging at my hair to look at me properly. "Are you being serious?"

"Baby, I’m a little late doing this. I should have asked you fifteen years ago."

"Yes!" she cried, her arms wrapping tight around my neck, legs locking around my hips.

Tears mixed with laughter as I kissed her again, this time softer. The raw heat of our last round mellowed into something sweeter, deeper. I slid inside her once more, slow and gentle.

"God, I love you," I whispered against her lips.

"I love you too, Tick Tock," she whimpered, her voice hitching as I rocked into her, our bodies tangled in the dark warmth of our bedroom.

I cupped her cheek with one hand, the other braced beside her head, her thighs caging my hips as I moved.

"You’re everything to me, Kitten. Every fucking piece."

"Don’t stop," she gasped.

"Never," I growled against her mouth. "I’ll spend the rest of my life worshipping this body, this heart, this soul."

Her nails dug into my back as her climax built again, and I let go right along with her, both of us crashing over the edge together. Her cry shattered the air and I buried my face in her neck, holding her as tightly as I could without breaking us both.

And when the heat of it passed and we lay there catching our breath, I kissed the corner of her mouth and murmured, "Forever, Kitten. You, me, and our little family."

She laughed softly, her hand covering mine where it rested protectively over her stomach. "Forever,“ she whispered dreamily as she drifted off to sleep.
