Jace released her from his embrace and wiped her tears again. “We’re sorry that you were worried. We didn’t mean to be so long. But next time, all you have to do is ask a monitor to radio one of us if you are feeling unsure and one of us will get here quickly. Understood?”
She nodded, suddenly feeling silly for causing such a scene when all she had to do was go to a room monitor. They had even told her to let a room monitor know if she needed them when they’d dropped her off in the playroom. But instead, her mind went crazy and she didn’t think it through.
“I’m sorry, Daddy. I’m sorry, Zaddy,” she said sadly.
“I know, baby girl. We aren’t upset with you. I think we’re both kind of glad you wanted us that badly, but you still need to be punished for your tantrum and for making Gemma feel bad. I think you also need the reminder that you belong to us and we aren’t ever leaving you,” Jace said.
She nodded, looking back toward Zane who leaned forward and pressed a kiss to her forehead.
“You’re our girl, Ruby Elizabeth. Don’t ever forget it,” Zane whispered, tugging on one of her buns.
Looking back toward Jace, she shifted from one foot to the other. “Are you sure you have to spank my butt, Daddy? I think I learned my lesson.”
Raising his eyebrow, Jace smirked at her. “Nice try, little girl. Come on. Over my lap. Good thing your romper buttons at the crotch, huh?”
Oh yeah, lucky her.
He carefully helped her over his lap and when his hand reached between her legs to unsnap the romper, she felt a zing of arousal as his fingers brushed against her pussy. Sheesh. She was about to be spanked and yet she was aroused. What was wrong with her?
Her cheeks heated as she remembered they were actually in a room with a bunch of people. Looking around, she noticed no one was really paying much attention to them, and all the Littles had gone back to playing.
When he started pulling at the waistband of her panties, Ruby let out a small whimper.
“Who do you belong to, little girl?” Jace asked.
She looked back at him and sighed happily. “You and Zaddy.”
He nodded and the first smack landed on her bottom, making her yelp in surprise.
“That’s right and I want you to remember that. You belong to us and we belong to you. You’re ours. I want you to think about that while I spank your bottom.”
Smack! Smack!
Okay, Daddy was not playing around. His hand stung her bottom and she instantly started kicking her feet and whimpering with each spank.
Smack! Smack!
“Owwie! Daddy, I’m sorry!”
Wrapping her hands around his pant leg, she sniffled more and more as the spanking continued. It didn’t take long before tears fell freely onto the carpet below her.
Luckily, she was so concerned about how her poor bottom felt that she forgot about all the other people who were seeing her get it roasted.
Smack! Smack!
She had no idea how she’d gotten so lucky but for some reason, these two men wanted her and she wanted them, too. She wanted them forever. It was too soon for the L word, but she felt it. In the short time she had known these two men, she’d felt more cared for than she’d ever felt in her entire life.
A sob broke free as her entire body shook with the realization that these two men had treated her better in the past week than her family had ever treated her, and they weren’t going to let her go. They hadn’t left her or pushed her to the side or forgotten her. They’d had an urgent situation that took their attention away from her and she’d panicked.
Another sob racked through her and as quickly as the spanking started, it stopped, and she was gently pulled up to sit in Jace’s lap. Zane had pulled a chair up next to them and reached out to hold one of her hands while Jace rocked her.
“That’s our girl. Let it all out, baby. We got you and we’re never letting you go. That’s our good girl.”
She had no idea how long she’d cried, but Zane kept cleaning up her face with tissues until the tears subsided and she felt empty yet lighter than she’d ever felt before.
“There she is,” Zane said with a soft smile.
There was no doubt in her mind that she looked a mess, but she couldn’t seem to find it in her to care because the two men in front of her were looking at her like she was the most beautiful thing they’d ever seen.
