Chapter Eighty-Eight: I’m kidding… Mostly

Tillie came into the dining hall holding two plates. She sat down a plate in front of me that was loaded with two burgers and homemade french fries. It smelled amazing, I shifted in my seat, looking up at her. Her damp hair hung down her back and the soft scent of her shampoo and body wash mixed with her own unique scent.

It mixed with our scents in her and it comforted my beast in a way that I hadn’t expected it to. It filled me with a happiness that I could see practically mirrored on my mate’s lovely face. The soft light of the lamps that Travis was turning on in the room to chase away the darkness of the early evening seemed to make her glow.

She looked so good like this. Her face was scrubbed clean and there was a tiredness to her eyes but she was the most beautiful thing that I had ever seen

It was confirmed for me. I was crazy about Tillie.

“Come here, baby.” I said, pulling her closer.

Tillie let me pull her over to me. I brought my hand up to her cheek bringing her lips closer to mine. She moved her hand to my shoulder, bracing herself as I moved my fingertips over the side of her face. Tracing my fingers over her soft skin until her lips parted for me. I pulled back from kissing her and she looked down at me, her cheeks flushed with a pale blush.

“What was that for?”

“Just wanted a kiss from my baby girl is all.” I said, watching her lips tilt into a smile before she bit her lower lip.

“Daddy.”
