Daddy's Little Obsession (Daddy 6)

“Really?”

“Really. But you have to trust that I would never hurt you.”

“I know that, or Kaleb wouldn’t have asked you to come to get me.”

“You’re right about that.”

“But he doesn’t even know me,” she told him.

“He knows you enough, and the fact you’re Aleena’s best friend means something. You’re automatically a part of their family now.”

“Have you met her?”

He nodded. “Yes. She’s very special.”

They walked down the hallway in silence. He could feel her energy start to lag and wanted to get her settled.

After he got them into the room, he moved to the bed and made her sit. “Rest for a minute.” In the bathroom, he started the bath with the bubbles he bought at the shop. He set out a towel and then went to get her.

He found her pacing in front of the window. “Come here, baby.”

She glanced into the bathroom when she got to him. “What’s going on?”
