Angel waved to Daisy as Thomas led her out of the kitchen and up the stairs.In the bathroom, he started the water in the deep tub before stripping her and tying her hair up in a bun.“Let’s get you in.I’ll be right back and take a bath with you.”
“Yes.”She clapped.
She settled into the hot water, rested back against the porcelain, and closed her eyes.She dozed until he walked back into the room and began undressing.
Angel felt at peace.It was a feeling she hadn’t felt to this degree before.The fact that her daddy came for her told her a lot and made her feel more secure than ever.
Chapter Eighteen
“Sit up a bit, baby.”Thomas stepped into the bathtub, sat, and pulled her back against him.He closed his eyes for a moment because it was the first time he had relaxed since her running.
He heard her breathing deepen, telling him she was asleep.“Sweetheart.Let’s get you washed so I can get you fed and into bed.”
She started to move, reaching for the washcloth and soap, and handed it to him.His hand glided over her body, leaving suds and bubbles behind.He didn’t linger in any one place or try to arouse her, although by the look of her tight, hard nipples, she was already at a heightened level of need.
“Unplug the drain,” Thomas told her.“Come on, baby.Let’s get dried off and you into bed.We’ll eat a bit before we go to sleep,” he said as he stood and then helped her up.
He dried them both and wrapped a towel around his torso, and reached for a robe to put on her.If he saw her naked, he’d have her under him and his cock as deep as he could inside of her.The urge was almost more than he could handle.He wanted to cement their bond in the deepest way, but first, he needed to take care of her.
He got them settled on the mattress and handed her a plate.“Do you want some fruit besides the sandwich?”
“Just part of an egg sandwich for now.Can we wait to eat the fruit and other things later?”she asked.
“Of course.”He loaded his plate and dug in.Neither of them talked.He could tell she was about at the end of her rope and needed rest.
“Are you finished?”he asked.
She nodded and handed over the plate.
He arranged everything on the tray and set it on the nightstand.“Let’s brush our teeth and then rest.”
Thomas helped her stand and stood beside her as they brushed their teeth.
“Go on and get into bed, baby,” he said.
Angel moved to the mattress and climbed on.He was about to tell her to remove the robe, but decided not to, for fear of any more temptation.
