At least, she was remorseful. She kept wringing her fingers and pursing her pretty lips where she sat on their bed while he paced the room. He wanted her to stew for a few minutes before he took her over his knees.
“I shouldn’t have run toward danger when I heard Sammi screaming. I know. But, Daddy, it was instinctive. She was so scared. I couldn’t just turn away.”
“Juni, you had Kestrel and Phoenix with you. You should’ve let them handle it.”
She slouched. New tears ran down her cheeks. “Are you really angry with me, Daddy?”
“Nope. I’m not angry at all, Little one.” He came to her and cupped her face. “I was scared out of my mind. I was also glad that Kestrel had been wearing a comm unit. That’s how I knew what was happening. You wouldn’t believe how fast I flew down to that tunnel and caught up with you.”
She swallowed.
He leaned in closer. “You’re my life, Juni. My world. I love you so much that I want to roll you in bubble wrap and never let you leave my side. Do you understand that?”
“Yes, Daddy, because I love you, too.”
“You’ve shaved years off my life today alone, between climbing out a fifth-floor window and running after bad guys. Can you maybe not do anything dangerous tomorrow? I need a day to recuperate.”
She grinned. “Sure, but I can’t promise about the day after. Just tomorrow,” she teased.
He was glad she was no longer crying and frantic, but she still needed a good, firm reminder to help her stay out of trouble in the future. “Daddy is going to spank you now. Naughty Little girls who make poor choices need to be disciplined to help them make better choices next time.”
She sighed. “Okay, Daddy.”
“Naughty spankings that follow bad behavior are not followed up with orgasms.” He lifted a brow to make sure she understood.
“Okay, Daddy,” she repeated.
How the hell was he going to spank her bottom and withhold orgasm? Especially when, right about now, what he really needed was to be buried inside her so deep that he forgot everything that had happened over the past several days.
Magnus wanted to strip his Little girl naked, thrust into her, and stay there. He needed the life-affirming effects sex would give them both. However, he also needed to be a good, firm Daddy, and right now, that meant spanking her bottom until she cried. If he didn’t, she would think she could get away with anything.
Magnus slid his hands to the hem of her shirt and pulled it over her head.
“Do you think Sammi will be okay on the fourth floor? Should we check on her?”
Magnus chuckled. “Sammi is fine. She was so tired, I’m sure she passed out. You don’t need to bother her. You can spend some time with her in the morning before her flight home.”
“But…”
“Lie back, naughty girl. Let me get the rest of your clothes off.”
She sighed dramatically as he removed everything else, leaving her naked. He loved the way she wasn’t as shy about her body as she had been the first few times he’d disrobed her.
“Roll over, Juni. I want you on your tummy at the edge of the bed.” As she did as she was told, he grabbed a pillow. “Good girl. Now, lift your hips.” When she did, he slid the pillow under them to elevate her bottom.
Her breathing was ragged, and she bent her arms and brought them up close to her body along the sides of her breasts.
“Can you keep your thighs parted for Daddy? Or do you need me to put another pillow between your knees to remind you?”
Her breath hitched, and she hesitated before saying, “I’ll try, Daddy.”
He chuckled as he rubbed her bottom. “I told you before, Little girls who need a punishment spanking aren’t allowed to come, and that means no attempting to get friction against your clit, understood?”
Her shiver was delightful. “Yes, Daddy.”
“Why is Daddy spanking you, Juni?”
“Because I could’ve gotten hurt when I ran into a dangerous situation.”
“That’s right. I want you to think twice before you do anything like that again. Your Daddy is going to die of a heart attack if you keep testing your mortality.”
“Sorry, Daddy.”
Magnus set one palm on the small of her back and lifted the other to swat her pretty bottom.
Juniper’s breath hitched, and she stiffened. She needed a warmup to remember what it felt like to be spanked, and he would give her that. He swatted her several more times, peppering her skin while she slowly relaxed.
When he paused to rub her pink globes, he asked her, “How are you doing, Juni?”
“Okay, Daddy.” Her voice was firm. She didn’t sound distressed.
“May I continue, Little one?”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Good girl.” This time, he spanked her harder, watching her profile as she winced and then settled. She pursed her lips, and when she lifted her feet, flexing them, he knew she was aroused.
