“I’m checking to see if you have a fever,” Blade told her as he pressed his finger inside the tight ring of muscles.
“No, Daddy. Stop!”
“Do you trust your Daddy, Little girl?” he asked, continuing to spread the lubricant inside.
There was a pause, and Sapphire nodded.
“Good girl.” Blade withdrew his finger and inserted the thermometer deep into her bottom.
“Cold,” she protested, trying to wiggle away.
“I know, sweetheart. It won’t take too long.”
She relaxed on the mattress as if struggling took more energy than she had. When ten minutes had passed, Blade removed the device and checked the temperature. 101. High but not at the panic state yet.
He wiped away the extra lubricant with a tissue and re-covered her bottom. After cleaning his hands and the thermometer, he returned. Referring to the instructions on the liquid pain medicine, he measured out the correct amount for her weight. He’d carried her enough to have an educated guess.
Wrapping an arm around his Little girl, Blade helped Sapphire sit up. “I need you to take some medicine for me.”
She sniffed the cup suspiciously. “That doesn’t smell good, Daddy.”
“Try holding your nose, Little girl. This will make you feel better,” he promised.
To his delight, she followed his directions and pinched her nose closed. He placed the cup at her lips, and she drank all of it.
“Yuck, Daddy.”
“Sorry, Blue Eyes.”
“Tired, Daddy. Going back to sleep.”
Blade kissed her temple. Quickly, he cleared the dresser. He washed the bottles and filled the hot-water bottle. Returning, he tucked that under the covers at her feet. Her sweet moan of enjoyment made him smile as he shucked off his jeans. Sliding in next to her, Blade wrapped himself around her, sharing his warmth.
“Daddy,” she whispered and fell back asleep.
Chapter
Fourteen
Waking a few hours later, Sapphire heard Blade making coffee in the kitchen. Lured by the thought of a hot drink, she stirred in the bed. Her toes touched something soft and fuzzy. She immediately searched for Silver and found him napping on her pillow above her head.
She ran her toes over the object under the covers. What was that? Curious, she sat up and threw back the covers. Smiling at the cute owl that looked up at her, she pulled it toward her and heard it slosh. A water bottle. How fun!
“You must be feeling better,” Blade observed from the doorway.
“Yes. I’ll get up if you’ll fix me some coffee.”
“I’m going to check your temperature first. I think that medicine helped,” he suggested.
A fit of coughing wracked her. Blade handed her cool water in a sippy cup when she stopped. “Try this.”
The water soothed her throat. “Thanks. I guess I’m not totally recovered.”
“Temperature. If it’s high, you’re staying in bed today,” Blade decreed.
“Not possible. I have to open the shop,” she said.
“Turn over.”
When Blade picked up the thermometer case and lubricant, the memory of him caring for her last night rebounded into her brain. Sapphire squeezed her thighs together. That shouldn’t turn her on. She’d never even considered anal play. It seemed so intimate. “You can take it in my mouth.”
“You just drank cold water.”
Crap. That would give a false report. She scrambled for another option. “You can use one of those forehead things.”
“Little girls have their temperatures taken in their bottoms. Turn over.”
From his expression, Sapphire knew arguing wouldn’t help her. Slowly she rolled over onto her stomach. She pulled Silver close to hide her face.
“That’s my good girl.”
That phrase resonated inside her. She realized she wanted to please him. Sapphire also had to admit that submitting in this way aroused her. Not that she ever planned to admit that.
Blade pulled up the oversized T-shirt she wore to bed to expose her rounded buns. She shivered at the cold air wafting over her skin. Squeezing her eyes shut as he parted her buttocks, Sapphire tried not to react as he applied the slippery mixture to her tight opening.
This doesn’t feel good!
Despite her attempt to keep him out, Blade slid a probing finger through that ring of muscle she clenched. Grabbing at anything to distract her from focusing on how much her body reacted to his touch, Sapphire recited multiplication tables in her head but totally screwed them up.
I should have listened closer in math.
“Daddy should pay more attention to your bottom. When you feel better, we’ll start getting you ready to accept me here,” Blade told her as he spread the mixture thoroughly.
“No, Daddy,” she whined.
“Am I hurting you?” he asked.
She debated lying. Somehow, now didn’t seem like a wise time. “No. I’ve just never….”
“Thank you for telling me, Sapphire. Daddy will take good care of your cute bottom.”
Finally, he withdrew his finger and replaced it with the thick thermometer. It was cold inside her, making her shiver. The thought popped into her mind that she preferred his warm finger, and she moved her head, trying to shake it away.
