Daddy's Little Assistant (Daddy 9)
Chapter Seventeen
Eli took Kinley back to the hotel room to pack his things.
She looked around. The room was spacious and very elegant. But there was no personality to it.
She sighed. “I’m so glad you’re getting out of here.”
“Hey, it wasn’t so bad.”
She scrunched up her nose.
He didn’t have a lot, just a few suitcases that one of the employees would take down to the car that was waiting for them.
At the condo, Manny helped them get the bags into their condo before leaving. Kinley looked around. She didn’t understand why the place looked so different. It was still light out, so that wasn’t it.
“I’m going to take these into the bedroom. I left some menus on the table. See what you’d like, and they’ll deliver it.”
“How will we know to get it? They can’t come up in the elevator, right?’
“You’re right. Only the owners and our women. You haven’t met him yet, but another smaller lobby deals with just the people who live in the condos. We have Sam, who is here the most and in charge, and a few other guys overnight and weekends. He’ll call up when it’s delivered, and I’ll go down and get it.”
She nodded and walked over to the table. There were several menus, so she picked the top one.
A pair of arms came around her waist. “What are we having for dinner?”
She showed him the paper. “Something Italian.”
“Sounds good. I don’t care, so you pick out a few things, and we’ll share them.”
She smiled and then sighed when one of his hands caressed her stomach while his mouth nibbled at her neck.
“Oh, that feels wonderful.”
“Good, I’m glad I’m doing it right.”
“You do everything right.”
He snorted. “Let’s order. I’m hungry.”
She was shocked that Eli was going down to pick it up in the lobby within thirty minutes. She grabbed a few plates and silverware and filled glasses with water.
Her mouth watered as the first aroma hit her senses. “Oh, wow. That smells so good.”
“I agree. This might be a five-star.”
“We’ll have to make up a different category for delivery.”
He grinned as he pulled containers out of the large sack.
“Oh, my, I didn’t order all that.”
“I’m glad you did. I’ll love eating this later as a snack.”
“From now on, I’ll be careful…”
“You won’t worry about it. Got it?”
She sighed and nodded. “Yes.”
They sat down to eat. If they weren’t chewing, they talked about everything, from politics to health food stores to favorite childhood cartoons. She loved how easy it was to talk to him.
“Do you want to help me put things away?”
“Of course,” she said.
Eli put the bags on the bed and emptied them out. She put things on hangers while he put things away in drawers. She realized that the time for going to bed was fast approaching, and she felt nerves start to grow.
Eli pulled her over to the bed and sat on the edge with her standing between his legs.
“I can see you’re starting to get anxious, and I really wish you wouldn’t. Nothing is going to happen tonight unless you say it is.”
“But I really want us to … you know, it’s just that I’ve never…”
He smiled in understanding. “Oh, baby. Are you telling me you’re a virgin?”
She nodded and hated the blush she knew covered her face.
“I suspected.”
“It’s going to hurt.”
