Daddy’s Little Pet

ROBERT

Sunday arrived sooner than I’d hoped, bringing a tense atmosphere that I didn’t enjoy.

Last night’s scuffle between Renee and me had escalated quickly, as I should’ve expected.

Even though I eventually calmed her down, the warm evening was filled with an awkward tension I didn’t know how to handle.

We’d watched movies, cuddled, and even had sex, but Renee remained distant. She wasn’t herself at all.

The bubbly, loving, and pestering woman I’d grown to adore had vanished, replaced by a quiet, moody, and withdrawn woman.

She wasn’t avoiding me per se, but she wasn’t saying much either, and it was driving me insane.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

I didn’t like this attitude, and I wasn’t too fond of her silence either.

‘But you were the one who started it. You brought this upon yourself.’

As I sat on the bed, watching her dress, I couldn’t stop thinking about how to make it up to her.

What could I do? What could fix this?

‘You know what you should do, Robert. Stop overthinking and start talking to her. You could begin by telling her about your shady past. Then tell her about Amanda and…’

“But I absolutely cannot!” I half-yelled through gritted teeth, my gaze fixed on the side of the dressing table, where she was currently applying makeup.

I couldn’t tell her a thing. At least not right now. Not when, despite her reservations, I wanted this to be a long-term, permanent relationship.

I was still trying to build a beautiful relationship with this woman, who had waltzed into my life and turned it upside down-but in the best way possible.

My gaze was still fixed on her and I murmured words of gratitude when I saw that she hadn’t notice me talking to the air or my unusually explosive outburst.

I examined her clothes, my gaze wandering over her banging body.

The black cut-out dress highlighted her beautiful curves and, as always, complimented her wavy hair cascading down her back.

The material hugged her hips beautifully, and the sun rays reflecting from the open balcony window did an excellent job of making the fabric shimmer. Even though she had her back to me, her gaze fixed on the large concave mirror, I knew this bodice held the contours of her supple breasts in place.

Darn it! But Renee was breathtaking. Sometimes I wondered how I’d gotten her so easily. As if she’d been served to me on a platter that I hadn’t even hesitated to devour immediately.

The thought made my groin lurch involuntarily, and I groaned, dragging my eyes away from the temptress in front of me.

“Robert…” I drew my gaze to where she stood as she called out, her soft pillowy voice filling the room.

“Yes, Renee.” I croaked out, and she didn’t reply at first.

Just when I wanted to say something again, I heard her, “Renee? Just Renee? Hmmm…”

‘Here we go again.’ I muttered to myself as I began to walk toward her, my feet springing up from the bed.

“I’m sorry, sweetheart. I didn’t mean it that way. I just-”

“It’s fine. I’m not upset.” She cut in. “Just help me fix this necklace. My nails are preventing me from doing anything.”

She wasn’t upset? Well, I’d be damned.

I noticed how moody she looked in the mirror, and she was probably eating herself up inside.

With my failing to answer her questions as promised last night, to the tense and awkward situation between the two of us all day, and now I just had to fuck everything up again by doing this.

My heart suddenly tightened, and a whiplash of painful emotions filled my entire body.

“Here, take it.” She interrupted my thoughts once more. As I collected the necklace, our fingers lightly brushed.

I wiped away a knowing smirk that crept up my lips when I heard her gasp a little.

My gaze was drawn to the simple but intricate diamond necklace in my hand, and that’s when I realized it was the jewelry I’d purchased for her.

The one with the initial R engraved on it-a letter that represented our matching names. After our first parting, I’d gotten her this sparkling customized accessory, and it’d cost me a fortune.

It was a fortune well spent though.

Taking another step forward until I stood close behind her, I wrapped the necklace around her neck.

“You look amazing, sweetheart.” I said as I kissed the crook of her neck. “Absolutely breathtaking. The most gorgeous creature I’ve ever seen.”

I quickly snaked my hand around her waist, pulling her toward me, and she giggled softly.

“Rob… Robert…”

That giggle-the sound of her laughter made my heart soar.

This was such a perfect moment. So perfect and-

“Robert…” She called out, more softly this time, almost as if she was afraid to say my name. It made my jaw clench.

“Yes, baby girl?” My hand on her waist tightened as I looked in the mirror, and our gazes locked.

Her lips parted, and she stared blankly at me with shiny brown orbs that had so many questions buried deep within them.

Her eyes widened, and whirling around, she stared me down and yelled, “Robert! You’re wearing jeans and a T-shirt!”

“Yes. You didn’t notice? Is there something wrong with it?”

“I didn’t notice at all. You look handsome, though. This is your second time wearing em’ jeans, and I like how you look. I’m used to seeing you in your thousand-dollar suit most of the time, but this looks damn good on you, I must admit.”

Her eyes sparkled as they looked into mine, and I gave her a wide grin.

However, there was something about her expression-something I couldn’t quite pin down.

It wasn’t easy at times to read her emotions, but I noticed her features appeared relaxed and happy now.

This was exactly what I wanted. Not the tense expression she’d had all night.

With a quick move, I pushed her back till she hit the wall and swiftly pressed my lips against hers.

She tensed briefly, and I thought she’d push me away. But then she melted into the kiss, tenderly closing her mouth around mine.

I let out a low growl as her arms snaked around my neck, wrapping tightly around it.

“If you don’t let go, baby girl, I won’t be held accountable for what I’ll do next.”

My voice became husky as I spoke the words, causing her lips to part and her breathing to quicken.

“What would happen? You’ll have no choice but to fuck me, right?” She asked, her cheeks blushing profusely as she bit her lips seductively.

Sex was not a deal breaker for Renee, and given how heavily she was flirting with me, I desperately wanted to comply with the request.

However, we’d both been planning to leave. Yet, here we were. If I put her up against this wall, I could-

“Renee…” I sighed and stepped back, her arms dropping from my neck. “You realize we have an important place to be, right?”

“Right.” She mumbled as she began to walk back to the dressing mirror. “Somewhere important that I still don’t have any idea about.”

“It’s a surprise, love.” I reassured her, grabbing her wrist. At the same time, she grabbed her small clutch purse, and we both made our way out of the suite.

“A surprise indeed.” She laughed lightly, looking at me briefly, “You never disappoint, so I know this’ll be worth it. I can’t wait to find out what it is.”

‘Of course. Prepare to be stunned.’ I thought to myself, a grin on my lips.

She returned her gaze forward and continued walking, with me keeping pace and enjoying the supple view of her bouncing ass.
