She whimpered as she spread her thighs wider. Suzette and Jezebel were in front of Daddy, so they weren’t seeing her exposed sex directly, but she felt as if they might as well. She was wet.
Elias set his palm on the small of her back. “I’m going to spank you until I decide you’ve learned your lesson, and then you’re going to stand in the corner with your dress up and yourpanties down so everyone can see your naughty red bottom while you think about your choices.”
“Yes, Sir,” she mumbled.What have I gotten myself into?
The first swat was more of a warmup. So were the next several. But then her Daddy started spanking her in earnest, covering every inch of her bottom and the backs of her thighs all the way down to her knees.
Leah tried to focus on the burn instead of the need between her legs. She realized part of her punishment was going to be the arousal she was left with because he certainly wasn’t going to let her come. He’d made it clear that she would not be permitted an orgasm after a punishment. Besides, there was no way he would touch her pussy in front of other people. He might expose it, but he wouldn’t turn this into something sexual.
Leah went into her head. She was still aware that two people were watching her, and she felt kind of bad for putting them in this position. Maybe they didn’t want to watch someone get spanked.
Mostly she was absorbing the burn from every swat. Her Daddy was thorough. He didn’t miss a single millimeter of her skin. Plus his pressure was precisely what she needed.
It felt good. She’d had a very stressful few hours, and his palm was giving her some sort of release. In addition, every swat vibrated to her clit and caused her need to grow. It was madness feeling like this in front of people. She wondered if it would always be that way or if it was because their mating was so new.
When he finally stopped, she was panting and shaking. She wanted to squeeze her legs together. He set his hand on her inner thigh just above her knees to keep her from doing just that. He rubbed her skin without saying a word for long seconds before rolling her toward him, standing, and carrying her cradled body to the corner of the nursery.
He stood her on her unsteady feet, angled her toward the corner, and lifted her dress up. “Clasp your hands behind your back to keep your dress from falling. I want your bottom exposed. You’ll stand here until I tell you to move.”
“Yes, Sir.” Her bottom lip trembled as she absorbed this next phase of her punishment. This part was going to be no fun.
“Spread your legs. Keep your panties above your knees,” he commanded.
She sniffled as she obeyed him. She wasn’t happy about being left in timeout in front of her new friends, but as he walked away, leaving her in the corner, she realized she was also relieved.
It was an odd sensation. She was relieved to know that her Daddy would never go back on his word or hesitate to spank her after a warning. The lesson was learned, and she felt peaceful knowing it.
She stood there for a long time. An awkward silence filled the room because her friends were forced to remain while she endured this humiliation. She wasn’t at all sure she would be as amenable to being spanked and displayed in front of the other Daddies, but what mattered was now she knew if she pushed Elias in front of them, he would follow through and spank her without hesitation.
“Okay, Little one. Your punishment is over. You may pull your panties back up.”
She sniffled as she dropped the hem of her dress and reached down to pull up her panties. When she turned around to take in the room, she found her friends still sitting on the floor and her Daddy sitting on the rocking chair.
He held out his arms. She rushed over to him and threw herself into his embrace. When he hugged her tight, she said, “Thank you, Daddy.”
“You’re welcome, Little firecracker.” He kissed her temple. “Now, how about we all go to the kitchen and get some lunch?”
Chapter Twenty-Three
Hours past with no word from the Alpha Protectors who were out hunting the rogue bears. Leah got to know Suzette and Jezebel well. They played all kinds of games and laughed together.
She felt bad that Olivia was stuck outside alone, but either Daddy, Felix, or Gavin took turns sitting with her. They couldn’t communicate, but hopefully their presence made her feel less lonely.
It was mid-afternoon. Leah and her friends were sitting in her playpen reading when a low growl made Leah’s skin crawl. It was filled with menace and caused all three of the women to sit up and take notice.
The door flung open wide, slamming into the wall. Olivia stood in the entrance, ears up, teeth bared, nostrils flaring. She growled again before suddenly shifting.
Daddy rushed toward her from the kitchen. “What’s wrong?”
Olivia stood in the doorway, holding the sides to steady herself. She was panting, and frustration sluffed off her in waves, making the hairs on the back of Leah’s neck stand on end as she and the other two women stood to see her better. They weren’tpermitted to stand in the playpen, but these were extenuating circumstances.
“Bears,” she growled even in human form. “Two of them. I don’t recognize them. They are about a mile away and approaching.”
Elias pulled out his phone and shot off a message. “Come inside, Little one.”
Olivia shook her head. “I need to shift back. I can’t keep track of them in my human form.” She didn’t wait for a response before she shifted and spun back to step onto the porch again.
Daddy opened the gate to the playpen. “Come out here,” he ordered. “If I tell you to shift, you need to do so. If I tell you to run, you stick together and head toward Brock’s house. Understood?”
