Gabby clapped her hands and bounced up and down on her knees excitedly.
“Yeah, please, can we? I’ve never had a sleepover!”
Ian looked over at Sean, who grinned. He would give Gabby whatever she wanted, although he did still owe her a spanking for talking badly about herself.
“Why don’t we take a break and get you girls home and down for naps, and then afterward, we can see about a sleepover?” Sean suggested.
Both girls let out an audible sigh, but they agreed and began cleaning up their toys as instructed by Ian.
“I really liked her, Daddy. She was funny and nice.”
Sean smiled, “I’m glad, baby. I think she liked you, too. It seems like you both hit it off.”
Sensing Gabby’s eyes on him, he peeked over to see her smiling adoringly toward him, and it made his heart swell. She was the sweetest thing he’d ever met.
“You know you’re still getting your cute little bottom spanked when we get home.”
Looking over at her again, he didn’t miss the flicker of arousal in her gaze, and he wondered if that was really what it was or if he was just seeing things. It didn’t matter either way because he wouldn’t act on it. Just knowing that he turned her on in some way made him hard, and he would picture that the next time he was in the shower stroking himself.
“I know, Daddy. I’m sorry I said bad things about myself. It’s hard to break that habit.”
“I know it is, Gabby, but I intend to do whatever it takes to get you to see yourself for the wonderful, amazing, sweet, strong, and loving woman that you are. When I look at you, I only see good. People can’t help where they come from, but coming from somewhere different doesn’t make you any less of a person than someone else. You are precious. Even Ian told me he thought you were an absolute doll.”
Gabby blushed and nibbled on her bottom lip, making Sean want to use his own teeth to pull that lip free and then kiss her long and deep. He felt blessed that she was able to kiss him at least, and she seemed to love doing it as much as he did. It was as though their lovemaking was through their mouths, and somehow, he found that just as sexy.
Once they were home and inside, Sean walked her upstairs to the nursery and sat down in the rocking chair while she shifted from foot to foot nervously.
“Come here.”
Walking over slowly, Gabby stopped when she was standing between his thighs, and even though he was sitting and she was standing, she was at eye level with him.
“What is your rule about talking badly about yourself?”
Closing his hands over hers, Sean held her in place to keep her from moving around. He wanted her to look him in the eye while she talked to him.
“That I’m not allowed to say bad things about myself, and I’m not allowed to think other people think badly of me. And if I’m thinking bad things about myself, I’m supposed to tell you right away so we can talk about it and you can reassure me.”
Nodding his head, he tugged her leggings and panties down, noticing that she was freshly shaved between her legs, something she must have done in the shower that morning while he was getting some work done. Dragging his eyes away from her pussy, which was glistening with her juices, Sean helped her over his lap, giving him a different view of her folds along with her backside.
It nearly killed him not to touch her everywhere, to show her how much he loved every inch of her beautiful body, but he would never do anything that she didn’t want. Especially when it came to something that still terrorized her from her past.
Trapping her legs with one of his, Sean began smacking her bottom, alternating cheeks each time his hand landed. He was only a few smacks in before she was wiggling and yelping, promising to be a good girl and not say bad things about herself anymore.
Despite her pleas and yelps, as Sean spanked her he could see the wetness between her legs growing to the point of it dripping down onto his thigh. He reminded himself to focus on what his task was, which was difficult considering his cock was pressing painfully against the zipper of his pants. He would definitely need a shower soon.
It only took a few minutes before she was sobbing over his lap, lying limply and accepting the spanking that she had earned. He quickly gave her a fast and hard finale, paying special attention to the tender flesh right below her bottom. She began to kick and scream in protest again until he stopped and flipped her up onto his lap.
He held her, letting her cry for as long as she needed until she was sniffling against his chest, running her fingers through his beard. It was good for his ego that something as simple as his facial hair calmed her as much as it did.
“No more saying bad things about my baby, okay?”
Gabby nodded and sniffled in agreement, clinging to him as he stood and made his way downstairs to make her a bottle. When he tried to sit her down on a stool at the kitchen island, she whimpered and tightened her grip around his neck.
Okay, Daddy gets to learn how to make a bottle one-handed.
Fumbling through it, he was able to prepare the shake while still carrying his little girl in his arms, although she already seemed to be falling asleep against him. By the time they were back upstairs, and he was cradling her with the bottle in her mouth, her eyes were already closed, and her breathing had gone shallow and relaxed.
Pulling the nipple from her lips, Sean carried her to the twin bed and tucked her in, picking up the already napping dog off the floor and setting him at her feet. As he was leaving the room, he grabbed the baby monitor and headed down the hall to take a shower.
