21. Maddie

Resting her face on his chest, she could hear his heartbeat, and it soothed her. When she'd seen Ian coming towards her in the club, she'd felt a mixture of relief, excitement, and trepidation. Not that Sean hadn't been friendly and completely respectful, but it didn't feel right being around a Daddy in that way that wasn't Ian.

Now, they were both pouring their hearts out and finally being totally honest with each other, and she felt more at ease than she had felt in years. Maddie knew she was completely safe with Ian.

"I don't think caring for me would be betraying Cam. The only way you could ever betray Cam is if you did something to hurt me."

His hand ran up and down her spine in smooth motions.

"I would never hurt you, Maddie. You are much too special to me."

"You're special to me too."

Ian rolled onto his back, pulling her with him, so she was lying on top of him. Her dress pulled down to her waist, so her bare breasts were pressed against his chest. Despite the warmth of his body against hers, her nipples were hard beads against him. He continued to rub her back until she felt like a puddle of liquid on top of him.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you where I was going tonight," she whispered.

His hand stilled, and he began to sit up, pulling her up into his lap with him.

"I'm going to punish you for lying to me, Maddie. That isn't something I will ever allow. There will be absolutely no secrets or hiding between us."

His words sank into the pit of her stomach, and she couldn't suppress the shiver that worked its way up her spine.

"I really don't think you should punish me since it was your fault I went there."

Ian raised his eyebrows, and she realized she should have probably kept her mouth shut.

"It was my fault, was it?"

Uh-oh. Treading on thin ice.

She shrugged, "I didn't think you wanted me, and I've only ever been able to be Little by myself. I wanted to experience it with other Littles and maybe even a Daddy."

Maddie couldn't help but lower her gaze from his as she finished the sentence because even though she hadn't done anything with Sean, she still felt guilty for interacting with another Daddy like that. She was also feeling self-conscious about her breasts being exposed, so she tried pulling her dress up, but Ian stopped her.

"First of all, I am more than happy to take you to the club so you can interact and play with other Littles. However, you are never, ever allowed to go there by yourself, and you will not be playing with any other Daddies ever again, understood?"

"I didn't play with Sean. He was just reading to me," she said softly.

Ian reached out and lifted her chin with his finger, "It doesn't matter. I don't want you getting any type of attention from another Daddy. The only Daddy that is going to read to you, kiss you, snuggle you, discipline you or fuck you is going to be me. Am I clear on that?"

She nodded, "Yes, Sir."

"Yes, Daddy," he corrected.

"Yes, Daddy."

Maddie could feel the blood pooling in her clit as she said those words, and she knew she would never be the same again after that.

"Good. Now, let's get you changed, and then we are going to talk."

Maddie looked at him with confusion, "I thought that's what we've been doing this whole time?"

Ian chuckled, "We have. But we need to have a Daddy and baby girl discussion, and then Daddy is going to spank his little girl for lying."

Oh, Lord.

"Oh."

Lifting her off his lap, Ian looked through her dresser drawers until he found a pair of footie pajamas with a drop seat.

"Stand up, baby girl."

Nervously, Maddie stood in front of him, utterly aware of how erect her nipples were, and could feel the dampness between her legs saturating her panties. He tugged her dress down and let it drop to the floor around her feet, leaving her in just her cotton underwear. Ian knelt in front of her, so his face was level with her lower tummy. She squeezed her thighs together, hoping to hide the embarrassing wetness.

When Ian hooked his hands inside the waistband of her panties, she panicked and slammed her hands on top of his, trying to stop him from pulling them down.

"Put your hands down at your sides right now, little girl."

She let out a whimper of protest but obeyed his steel command, dropping her hands to her sides. He slid the material down her legs.

"Put your hands on my shoulders, so you don't lose balance."

Lifting her hands to his thick shoulders, Maddie held on and stepped out of her underwear. When he lifted them to his nose and inhaled deeply, she thought she was going to die of embarrassment. She had read about women getting wet, but she had never imagined there could be this much wetness.

"Fuck, baby girl, you smell like heaven. I can't wait to get my mouth and teeth on that pretty little pussy of yours."

She let out a squeak and lifted her hands to her face to cover her warm cheeks. Not only was she standing in front of him completely naked and exposed, but he was smelling her most intimate scents.

Why is this so dang arousing?

"This is so embarrassing," she whimpered.

Ian looked up at her with a smirk.

"Baby, you haven't seen anything yet. I told you, there will be no secrets between you and me. I will know how your pussy smells each day of the month, I will know your bathroom habits, period schedule, and medical history. Anything and everything about you, I will know."

His words registered in her brain, and she knew she should have probably been completely put off by his admission but instead, she felt heat all through her body and was pretty sure her juices were now dripping down her leg. Ian confirmed that thought as he leaned forward and pushed her legs a bit further apart and began to lick from her inner mid-thigh up to where her inner leg met her pelvis and then pulled back.

"Mmm, damn, baby girl. Fucking paradise."

Her entire body began to tremble at the heat left from his tongue, and her clit felt so swollen she was sure with just one little touch, she would explode.

"Can we… um… have sex?"

Ian gave her a wicked grin, his blazing eyes staring up at her.

"Nope. We are going to take our time, Maddie-Rose, and Daddy isn't going to fuck that sweet pussy until I know without a doubt that this is what you truly want."

Well, that is just stupid reasoning…

Maddie slumped her shoulders and stuck her lower lip out, which made him laugh.

"Quit pouting before I add more spanks to the already lengthy spanking you have coming."

She straightened herself and watched as he brought her pajamas down by her feet and told her to hold onto his shoulders again and step in. She did as she was told, and as he pulled the clothing up her body, he gave her bare mound a gentle kiss before he stood and helped her finish dressing.

Ian held out his hand for her, and when she took it, he walked her out of her bedroom into his room then into his bathroom. He stopped when she was standing in front of the toilet and turned her around. He unsnapped the drop seat and gave her bottom a smack causing her to yelp.

"Hey!"

He raised his brow, "Don't hey me. Go potty. Then we are going to talk."

She had expected him to leave her alone then, but she should have known better. It was Ian. No concept for personal space.

"Can I have some privacy?"

He ran his hand over his slightly grown-out beard in a thinking gesture.

"Hmm… let me think about that… no. Sit, go, now."

Maddie huffed and sat on the toilet, crossing her arms in front of her.

"For a little girl who is owed a spanking for lying to her Daddy, you sure are being a sassy little thing, aren't ya?"

Okay, she knew Ian could be bossy and stern but gosh! She kept her eyes lowered because she was sure that if she looked up, she would find him watching her, and then she wouldn't be able to pee. After sitting for a moment without any luck, she heard the faucet turn on and she relaxed enough to empty her bladder. She grabbed some tissue and wiped herself quickly before he tried to step in and do it for her. How embarrassing!

Maddie stood and tried to close up the drop seat but couldn't reach very well or see if she was doing the right buttons.

"Turn around, baby. Let Daddy do it."

When she turned around, she was all too aware that her bare bottom was totally on display for him, and when she felt his finger run along the slit of her backside, she moaned softly. His touch warmed her, and she felt herself melt a little. Ian buttoned her pajamas and then turned her toward the sink to wash her hands.

He stood behind her and pumped foamy soap into her palms before using his own hands to help her scrub. She watched as his large hands covered hers as he rubbed the soap all over before rinsing. It was such an innocent task that he was doing, but it made her feel Little and cherished, and she had to blink back the tears of happiness forming in her eyes.

After shutting off the water, he used a towel to dry her hands thoroughly before he picked her up in his arms in a way that made her wrap her legs around his waist. He carried her to his bed, set her down gently, and then stripped off his shirt, shoes, and socks. Her mouth went dry as she stared at his tanned, chiseled chest and abs. He was gorgeous, and she wanted to lick every inch of him.

Ian sat in an oversized stuffed sitting chair in the corner of the room, crooked his finger toward her, and then pointed in between his legs.

"Come here, little girl."

Maddie slowly rose from the edge of the bed and walked toward him. She wasn't sure if she was walking to her doom or not, but he had said they were going to talk first, so maybe he would just forget about his threat to spank her. Right. Sure. Not that she really hated the idea of being spanked by him. She'd fantasized about it plenty of times.

When she stopped in between his legs, he moved his gaze up to her face and smiled. She moved from foot to foot, unsure of what to do or say.

"Nervous?"

She nodded, "A little. I don't know what I'm supposed to do."

Reaching out for her hands, Ian took them in his and guided her to sit on his lap.

"You're supposed to let Daddy lead. You don't have to know what you're supposed to do because I will tell you my expectations and guide you. I will take care of you."

She settled in his lap and relaxed against him. She liked the thought of that. It was easier for her to follow instructions, and it made her feel more secure to have something to follow.

"Okay."

Ian squeezed her hand and kissed the top of her head.

"We need to talk about what we both want out of this dynamic. I need to know about your Little side and your limits, and you need to know your rules and expectations. So why don't we start with you telling me what you like to do in Little space?"

Maddie felt her cheeks redden, and she suddenly felt very shy. She knew he was a Daddy, and he knew she was a Little, but what if he thought the things she liked to do were stupid? Or what if she was too Little for him? Maybe he preferred a Middle?

When she didn't say anything, he spoke.

"Are you feeling shy?"

She nodded and had to force her hand down into her lap to keep herself from sucking her thumb.

"Okay. I'll ask specific questions, and you can just say yes or no. Do you like to color?"

"Yes," she whispered.

He nodded, "I bet you like to watch animated movies and cartoons? Is that why you've made me watch Lilo and Stitch a million times?"

She giggled and nodded, "Yes. I like movies a lot. Especially Lilo and Stitch."

He chuckled, "I couldn't tell."

She gave him a look and just barely stopped herself from rolling her eyes at him.

"Okay, do you have any toys you like to play with? Dollies? Blocks? Crafts?"

"I like dollies. I have two dollies, but they are still at the house in Colorado. I also like stuffies, but I only have Stitch because I didn't want Cameron to think I was weird. I kept my dollies hidden."

His hand moved to cup her chin, tilting her head up until she was looking at him.

"I don't think Cam would have thought you were weird, baby girl. He would have loved and accepted you no matter what. He knew what I was and still loved me."

She nodded. Deep down, she knew Ian was right about that. Cam would have loved her no matter what.
