I lean over her, taking her chin in my hand until we are face to face. “I want you to leave these on and keep my cum inside you until daddy is done working. You understand?”

Her eyes twinkle with mischief and she squirms, “Yes Beck. I promise I will,” she promises sweetly.

“Good girl,” I say, moving to stand up. My eyes roam over her sated body one more time before I sadly decide I need to get back to work.

“I’m going to get dressed and go, angel. I’ll come get you when I wrap up. You’re staying with me, so pack enough to not leave for a while.”

She gives me a lazy salute, smiling brightly, “Yes sir!”

I smile back at her, giving her one last kiss before reluctantly going in search of my clothes.

Beckett

Two days later, Bobby and Natalie are on their way into town from New York, taking the same route we did with the company jet to Redland, before driving to Upwood.

Selah spent the entire time I was working fussing over what to wear, cleaning the rental cabin, and prepping for a special dinner she wanted to host for them in the evening. We invited Evy and Rockwell to join us for dinner as well tonight, so she really wants everything to be perfect for everyone.

I watch her hustling around the kitchen now as we wait for them to arrive, wearing an apron over her dress, her hair brushed up into a tight bun on top of her head.

I walk over to her and wrap my arms around her waist, resting my head on top of hers. “Angel,” I coo, kissing her head. “Stop stressing yourself out over this dinner. I already told you that Bobby and his wife will love you. How could they not?”

She sets down the plate in her hands, turning around and looking up at me before letting out a heavy breath. “I just want to make a great first impression. He’s your best friend,” she responds, the corner of her mouth lifting. “I know you don’treally care much about first impressions with people considering the dinner we had with my mom the other night, but I do.”

I laugh, pinching her on her butt, and she wiggles away from me. “Very funny. Just trust me, sweetheart, ok? Now, I’ve set the table, and we are done making all of the things you wanted,” I say, untying her apron and pulling it off of her. “Come and sit here at the island and have some water. You need to settle your mind a bit.”

She pouts her pretty lips, reluctantly sitting down while I go to get her some water. I bring it back over to her and Edison comes sliding into the kitchen on his socks.

“Ms. Selah! Do you like my outfit?” he calls out, pulling down the bottom of his shirt for her to see it.

He’s wearing a short-sleeved polo shirt that is his favorite color, “Ninja Turtle green”, with some khaki shorts. He looks very nice, but there are some obvious small hints that he dressed himself, like the fact that the collar of his shirt is rolled inward, and his socks are mismatched colors.

“I love this outfit, Edi!” Selah gushes, unfurling his collar for him. “You look very handsome.”

“Thank you!” Edison exclaims, beaming up at her. “I want to look good for our guests. I even drew everyone pictures! There’s one for Uncle Bobby and Aunt Natalie, and one for Uncle Rocky and Aunt Evy too!”

I smile and watch him run off into the living room. He quickly returns holding up two pieces of paper. On one piece of paper there’s a picture of an airplane, and then a car driving up a mountain. The other picture is of two people standing outside of a house with smiles on their faces.

I smile looking over them, pulling him in against my side. He really has a talent for drawing that I’ve seen develop increasingly since I’ve met him. I have been trying to take more time lately to teach him little techniques to help him progress and hopefully advance his talent. Maybe one day he will be helping me do designs for Kade Technology.

“This is awesome, Edi. They are so colorful, and detailed. I bet everyone will love them,” I tell him.

“Thank you!” he chirps, smiling proudly.

The doorbell rings and Selah stands up quickly, smoothing down her dress. I squeeze Edison’s shoulder, “Edi, how about you go get Gana from her room. Let her know our guests are here,” I say.

He nods and takes off, and I thread my fingers through Selah’s, pulling her with me to the front door. I look down at her and give her a reassuring smile, and a quick kiss.

I open the door and we are greeted with Natalie and Bobby’s cheerful smiles. Natalie is all decked out in her usual head to toe sleek black designer attire, while Bobby looks like he just came from the office in his dress shirt and slacks.

I usher them inside, and we all exchange greetings, shaking hands and hugging.

“My goodness, you are so pretty!” Natalie exclaims in her sing-song voice, clasping Selah’s hands in hers. “Isn’t shegorgeous, Bobby?”

Bobby rubs the back of his neck, glancing at me wearily like he’s afraid to answer. “Yes, Natalie.. I can see her. But I’m not looking too hard. I don’t need Beckett to gouge my eyeballs out,”he responds, taking Natalie by the waist and gently pulling her away. “Come here, you’re going to scare her away.”

Selah laughs, looking a little embarrassed, “Thank you Natalie. It’s so good to meet you both,” she says, as I come to wrap my arm around her shoulders.
