Really?My relationship with Chad was what he thoughtI’d hate giving up most? I was much more concerned about giving up my shoes andmy bodyguards.

“I promise I won’t put myself in danger like that. He’lleither have to find a way out too, or he can’t have me.” But chances were slimto none that I’d marry Chad. I needed a grade A cock. And I really preferred mydicks in twos.

Daddy smiled down at me. “I love you, princess.”

“I love you too, Daddy.”

He took a big bite of monkey bread and let out a sigh. “Godthat tastes good,” he said. “Or maybe I’m just able to enjoy everything morenow that I’m sure we aren’t going to get attacked by Crazy Isabella. I spokewith her father last night. He promised he’d make it very clear to her that shewould have no place in his organization if she went through with the Christmasmorning massacre. But I’m not sure I was completely convinced that would deterher. These though?” He held up the signed contracts. “She may be crazy, but she’snot stupid enough to attack three families at the same time.”

“My thoughts exactly.”

“In order for it to deter her, though, she has to know thealliance exists. Do you have a plan for that?”

“Already taken care of.” Before we’d gone to bed last night,Ghostie had sent an anonymous tip to one of Isabella’s guards.

Daddy nodded approvingly. “I’ve taught you well.”

One perfect present delivered, one to go.

I finished plating the monkey bread and brought some slicesout to the great room.

“Ready to open your present?” I asked Chad as I handed him a plate.

“Absolutely.” He leaned over and whispered in my ear: “Are yousure it’s okay to open in front of everyone?”

I laughed and whistled. The door opened and Ghostie andTeddybear wheeled in a huuuuuuuge present. Seriously. Huge. It was twelve feet longand seven feet tall. But only about two inches thick. It took some maneuveringto get it down the hall and into the great room. And we could have had aserious issue if the doors weren’t extra tall.

“What is it?” asked Chad.

“Open it and find out! Ah! I’m so nervous. I hope you loveit!”

“I’m sure I will.” He kissed my forehead and walked over tohis present.

I hoped he would go all caveman on it and rip the paper downthe middle for the grand reveal. But that wasn’t really Chad’s style.

“I can’t find any tape,” he said as he slid his hand acrossthe present looking for a seam.

“Just tear it,” I said. “Right down the middle.”

“But we should really save the paper…”

“Quit being so gay, son,” said Daddy.

Thank you!

Chad glared at him. “I really wish you wouldn’t keep sayingthat to me.”

Daddy glared back. “And I really wish I wouldn’t have to keepsaying that to you. But alas…”

“Fine,” sighed Chad. He reached up and tore the present open.

“Whoa!” he yelled when he saw his present – the most stunningnude portrait ever painted. He tried to put the wrapping paper back over it. “Ithought you said this was okay to open in front of everyone?!”

“It’s just a tasteful nude, babe. Don’t make it weird. Ghostie,Teddybear, can you help him?”

They grabbed the sides of paper and tore it off.

“What the fuck?!” yelled Chad.
