whined, and Theron laughed. “I’m serious. I know wehaveto talk, but that doesn’t mean I have to
like it.”
Theron lifted me off his lap before sliding up to the head of the bed. He spread his legs and patted
the mattress. I quickly settled, turning to the side so I could rest my head on his chest. I hummed my
delight when Theron wrapped his arms around my body. Times like this, I didn’t mind being smaller
than most guys. I felt safe in his embrace—tiny and treasured.
“I get the feeling we’re going to have to work on your patience,” Theron teased.
“Waiting sucks,” I grumbled.
“And wedefinitelyneed to work on your language. Good little boys don’t talk back or use bad

when you were in a relationship with the other person. But then, why had he referred to himself as my
Daddy? Was he testing the waters? Trying to see how I’d react?
There was only one way to find out…
“I know I have to be big when I’m at work or school, but outside of that, I’m not really sure.
Sometimes, being all little seems strange, but other times it’s like this fantasy world.” I probably
wasn’t making any sense. I closed my eyes, trying to push back the self-doubt. Theron rubbed my
back, and his steady breathing settled me enough to keep going. “I know I liked it when William made
