Page 84 of Her Daddies' Everything

“There you are. Your nest is all ready for you.”

Snowy was already in the nest, waiting for her.

“Thank you.”

“Get into bed. I’ll tuck you in.”

She closed her eyes for a moment as he disappeared into the bathroom. Jenner always took such good care of her. She opened her eyes and got into bed, patting at the pillows and setting them in the right place so she felt secure.

Then Jenner appeared and drew the covers up over her.

And that feeling of being safe increased.

There was nothing Immy loved more than being taken care of. Or being able to take care of the people she loved.

“Are you sure you’ll be all right on the couch? I really don’t mind sleeping on it.”

“Twinkles, there’s no way in hell you’re sleeping on the couch. Not only is it a couch but it’s close to the door. You’re going to be in here, safe, with me between you and the door.”

It was old-fashioned.

It was also incredibly sweet.

So she decided to give up arguing about who slept where.

“I don’t know if I can sleep, though,” she told him.

He brushed her hair off her face. It was a wild mess once more. She should have braided it before she went to bed.

“Sit up for a moment and face away from me. I’ll be back.”

But she’d just gotten comfortable! However, she did as she was told. To her surprise, he returned with her hairbrush and a hair tie. Sitting behind her, he started brushing her hair.

Oh, that felt so nice.

She closed her eyes and felt herself starting to relax. Then he quickly braided her hair.

“That’s it, Twinkles. Just relax. Lie down now.”

She snuggled into her nest and he tucked her back in. Then she felt him kiss her forehead.

Immy didn’t want him to leave, but she didn’t have any reason to ask him to stay. But he didn’t leave, instead he quietly started singing.

That was the last thing she remembered before she fell asleep.

Immy stepped into the house, glad to be home.

The charity concert had been a huge success. At least for the charity.

For her, the whole thing had felt odd.

Maybe it was because Abe and Isaiah hadn’t been there. Or because she hadn’t seen much of Sampson and Jenner.

The only constant person in her life at the moment was . . . Tobias. Which was a bit odd given she didn’t know him that well.

But you’d like to.
