I chuckled as I eased his head onto my shoulder. Grabbing the blanket from the back of the couch, I wrapped him up.
“Rest, mon chou. I’ll watch over you while you rest. Then we’ll eat something since I’m sure you’ll be starved by then.”
He nodded against me as he slipped into a restful state. I took the chance to pull out my phone and go through work tasks. There was always something to be done, even in my downtime.
A text from Pip took priority the minute I saw it.
Pip:Found him.
I dialed him immediately. “Where?”I growled when the line connected.
His laugh was dark and menacing. “Might have gotten the party started a bit early. He’s waiting for you. I only bruised him up a tiny bit. He had a cyanide tooth too. Ripped that bad boy out, then stuffed his mouth to help the bleeding.”
“Good. I’ll be there once Ricardo finishes his nap.”
There was silence on the other end. I pulled back to look at the phone to make sure I hadn’t lost the call.
“Pip?”
His voice was quiet when he replied, “You’re a good caregiver to him, Pharrell. He’s lucky to have you.”
I was thankful he hung up because I was utterly speechless. Was Pip kinky? Well, the obvious answer to this was yes. I could easily see him as a sadist or someone into some heavy degradation.
But caregiving and Daddy kink? It was a harder reach.
Didn’t mean it wasn’t possible though.
I stuffed the thought aside as I went back to my emails. The rest wound up being easy enough to handle while I let my boy rest. It was probably the most productive I’d been in months.Holding him this close settled the restlessness I always seemed to have when he wasn’t around.
This wasn’t a viable option for me to always have. For one thing, I wouldn’t be able to hold a meeting with my men on the darker side of my business if I had a bundle of boy in my lap. And for another, I had to be mobile for most of the business.
A vision of him strapped to me had a smirk forming. I was sure I could convince him to do it, but again, it wasn’t ideal. Maybe we could role play it one day to see if he enjoyed me carrying him around.
It took two hours before I felt the first stirrings of Ricardo waking from his nap. I brushed my hands along his crown as he wiggled a bit.
“Good rest, mon chou?”
He nodded softly. “Yes, Daddy. I feel much better.”
“That’s good. I handled some work while you slept, however, there is something I need to handle in person.” I paused as I thought over how he’d feel about this. He might be fine not knowing the true reason I needed to leave. Then again, he might be angry once he found out.
Because rest assured, he’d find out.
“Actually, if you’re up for a trip, I’d like you to come with me. Pip found him.”
The calm, restful state he was in disappeared. His head whipped back enough for him to look me in the eye.
“You found him?”
“Pip did, yes. He’s been holding him until I could get down to them.”
He bit his lip. “I want to come. Is that ok?”
“Of course it is.” I kissed him gently. “You’re welcome to come; however, you have to sit back and watch only. I don’t care if you feel the need to get revenge, you’re not to lift a hand his way.”
“Can I kick him, Daddy?”
I laughed at his cheeky behavior. “No, mon chou. You can shit talk him and threaten him all you want, but no movement. You’re to rest until I say so. Understand?”
