The Lyon's Cub Caitlin (Lyon The Next Generation 1)

She was supposed to be in bed asleep for the past hour or so but I’ve long known that she stays up with her laptop in bed under the covers most nights. She jumped when I walked in thinking it was daddy no doubt.

I put my finger to my lips and all but collapsed on the bed. The dog whined and moved out of the way as she sat up. The only light in the room came from the screen and the moonlight that shone through the window.

“Caitie? What is it, what’s wrong? Did you have a fight with Todd?” It took me three tries but I finally got it out. She grabbed my arm and I thought she was going to chastise me for being so stupid but she didn’t. “You did? You followed him? Where does he live? What’s the address? Did you see?”

Without thinking I stupidly told her and didn’t realize the danger until she started relaying the information to her friends. I sat there in silence until I heard Todd outside her door calling to me.

MOUTH

I passed by Lily’s room and saw the faint light from her computer coming from beneath the bedroom door. She’s been in the habit of having it closed since she and her little friends got together on that damn site.

We were supposed to take her to see her little friend the day before but at the last minute she said it was no longer necessary because her friend was back online and was fine. According to her the three of them have plans to meet this summer once school is out.

I tiptoed downstairs for the glass of water I needed before making a detour to my home office. After the story her daddy had told me about what she and her little friends had been up to I wasn’t taking any chances. My baby’s a lot like me but she also has a lot of her daddy in her. Stubborn and pigheaded. So I know just telling her not to do something isn’t going to cut it. Best I keep on top of this thing now.

I booted up my own computer and went into hers, going back the last hour or so to see what the three of them were up to. I started to relax when I noticed that they were discussing some scientific theory which made me smile at how brainy my little girl is.

I read down to the second to last entry and sat up in my chair. My heart started thundering in my chest and I opened another folder after following their conversation back hours earlier. There was a picture of the man they suspected had been driving the truck.

I put the pieces of the conversation together and realized that Lyon’s oldest daughter had done something stupid, something that could’ve gotten her killed. I studied the picture of the man taking in every detail and putting it away.

Then I stayed up for another few hours, long after my daughter and her friends had gone to bed, and using the address did a background check until I found his name. “Asshole!” I encrypted the information and shut down the computer. A look at my watch showed that it was barely past midnight.

Mob boy hadn’t come looking for me yet which meant he was tired from looking after our youngest all day. Poor baby has an ear infection and was miserable and only his daddy could get him to settle down. I bit into my lip as I calculated the time there and back. At this time of night I could be there and back without anyone noticing.

I didn’t feel any different when I walked across the room and slid back the secret door. I smiled as my eyes fell on my old friend. It had been a while since I had any uses for it. I hefted the bow in my hand and weighed my options before putting it back in its place.

I went back to the bedroom to check on Shane and he chose just then to roll over and reach for me. His head flew up off the pillow, “Arianna?” He sensed me in the room and turned. “What are you doing up?”

“I went to get some water, go back to sleep.”

Shit, I knew I wasn’t going to be able to leave anytime soon when he got out of bed, naked as the day he was born and came after me. He picked me up and was inside me before we made it to the bed. “I was dreaming about you.” He laid me back across the massive king size bed and came down over me, driving his cock even deeper inside me.

After all these years, after sharing this with him almost every day of our married life, I’m still amazed at how easily he gets my engine revving. I was moving with him, our lips trying to outdo each other as he fucked into me, when he whispered the words he knew would make me melt and send me into a panic all at once. “Arianna, have another child with me.” Shit! He always gets me this way.
