“Kadyn, get your cute little butt back here!” I call after our little raven haired hellion.

“No,” she calls back, still running away from me.

I groan. I’m really over our morning ritual of me trying to do her hair and her running away like the fires of hell themselves are on her heels.

“I’ll be gentle, I promise!” I call after her, poking my head into each room as I go.

“No!”

Following the sound, I find her in our bedroom, sitting on Daddy’s lap, snuggled into his arms. I glare at her., “What are you doing? It’s time to do your hair.”

“No!” she yells at me, then tucks her face into Zak’s chest again.

“What do you mean ‘no’? We have to do your hair, Kadyn, it’s got knots in it. If we leave them they will turn into a big, yucky rat’s nest.”

One eye peeks out at me, and I know it’s one half of the stink eye. “No! Mummy make Taydn cry,” she says.

I gape. “I do not. If you sat still it wouldn’t hurt,” I rebut. I can’t believe I’m having this argument with a three-year old. Welcome to my life. I scowl at her. “Fine, you know what, Daddy can do your hair today.” I’m feeling pretty smug right now. Zak has never done Kadyn’s hair, he’s sure to be worse at it than me.

He lowers his head until Kadyn meets his eyes. “Do you want Daddy to do your hair, princess?”

Kadyn beams. “Yes!”

My jaw drops. “Fine! You know what, that’s just fine.” I pass Zak her hairbrush and two hair bands. “Here you go, have at it.”

He smirks at me. “We got this, don’t we, Princess?” He gives her a wink.

I snort and take a seat in the corner to get a front row view of the action about to unfold. Zak takes the brush and gently runs it through Kadyn’s scraggly ends, slowly moving upwards. She isn’t cringing or pulling away—what the hell?

I watch in fascination as she sits perfectly still while Zak brushes all the knots out of her hair then ties it in a neat pony tail on top of her little head. “There you go Princess, all done,” he says, kissing her cheek and lowering her to the floor.

Kadyn skips out of our room with a bright smile on her gorgeous little face. What the actual fuc—

“See? Not so hard,” Zak announces before I can finish my thought.

This is madness. Absolute madness.

I’m about to grill him on his secret hair doing skills when Kadyn bounds back into the room with her favourite dress. “Pincess Taydn, Daddy,” she says, holding the dress up to Zak.

He helps her out of the tights and tunic I had already dressed her in, and slides her red Snow White dress over her head, tying the bow at the back for her. “There you go baby,” he coos, bopping her nose with the tip of his pointer finger.

When Kadyn scurries out again I stand, eyeing the man I’ve come to love more than anything other than our daughter. “I don’t know how you do it. She woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, I swear. But somehow Daddy fixes everything,” I accuse.

Zak gets to his feet, meeting me in the middle of our room. “Daddies are magic,” he tells me.

I roll my eyes. “Uh-huh, and so are unicorns, but they don’t exist,” I mutter as his arms curl around my body, tugging me into his big frame.

“Oh, I exist, babe, don’t you doubt it.” He winks, then lowers his mouth to mine, searing my lips in a deep, sensuous kiss. I melt against him, returning the kiss just as passionately. His hand moves to my lower back, pressing me forward until I can feel his erection pressing into my belly.

I moan. “Zak…”

“Yes, Red?” he murmurs against my parted lips. “Are you doubting my existence?” he utters into my mouth as his tongue slides against my own.

The next thing I know, his hands are looped under my thighs and he’s lifting me up, walking me backwards into our closet. “I need you, Red,” he groans. “I need inside that sweet pussy of yours.”

My head drops back. “Yes,” I whimper, and he closes our closet door behind him then lowers me to the island shelf in the middle of the area.

Our eyes meet. Heat, passion, need, and love radiate from him, making my need for him intensify. I yank his shirt over his head then unfasten his belt, siding down his zipper. When his cock springs free I wrap my hand around him, stroking his length up and down, loving the heavy weight of him in my palm.

Bang, bang, bang. “Daddy!” comes from the other side of the door. We freeze.

“Just a minute, Princess. Why don’t you go put on My Little Pony and I’ll be out to watch it with you soon?”

“Okee,” Kadyn sings back, and we both remain silent until the sound of her tiny footfalls can be heard running back to the lounge room.

“I just bought us a solid fifteen minutes before she comes looking for us again,” Zak says. “Better make the most of it.” He waggles his eyebrows and I chuckle.

“Yes, sir,” I reply, squeezing him in my palm.

His hips jerk forward. “Yes,” he hisses before tugging my shirt off and pushing my skirt up to my hips. He tugs me forward on the shelf. Nudging my underwear to the side, he slides inside me in one smooth stroke, making us both moan in ecstasy.

He stays still for only a moment. Then starts to pump, his hips moving faster and faster, pulling me into him with each deep trust. It’s so good, so fast, so much… “Uh,” I whimper. “Zak…” I claw at his ass for more.

“Fuck, Red, always so ready for me,” he groans. “So wet and hot for me,” he pants into my neck, biting and sucking my sensitive flesh. “Fuck yes.”

I’m so close I can feel my orgasm building deep inside me. With every dirty word he utters, my insides clench. “Fuck,” I whine. “Fuck, fuck, fuck,” I chant as his hips piston into me, his pelvis grinding against my clit.

“Yes, Red, come on my cock. come for me, babe, all over my hard dick,” he grunts into my ear.

My nails sink into his ass and my body convulses around him. He bites down on my nipple, sending me skyward. His hips slam into me over and over again, harder and harder.

I bite down on his shoulder to stave off my scream as I come hard.

Zak’s jaw locks. “Coming,” he rumbles then stiffens, his entire body going ridged as he comes. His cock jerks as his warm come shoots inside me. I grin, loving the slight twitch of his cock as he releases.

Life doesn’t get any better than this.

I have my man. I have my baby girl. I have everything I’ll ever need.
