“Next time, you yell,” the waitress replied. Everyone agreed with nods and murmurs of agreement.
Rita looked at her friends and suddenly knew for certain she didn’t belong at the bar anymore. When the next question came about when she’d be coming back, Rita looked over at Bart and smiled. Holding his beautiful blue eyes, she answered, feeling her heart moved up into her throat with apprehension, “I’m sorry. I’ll miss you all so much, but I don’t think I’ll be coming back.” Would he want her to stay in SANCTUM with him?
“Prince Charming is stealing you away, huh?” Marie, a fellow bartender, asked with just a hint of jealousy in her voice.
“I certainly am,” Bart answered with a smile as he wrapped his arm around Rita to squeeze her tight.
The Little girl and her Daddy had many serious conversations in the next coming months. Bart knew in his heart, she was his. He wanted her to be as sure as he was that she was his Little girl. In the back of his mind, Bart worried that she would choose to stay with him because she felt obligated or was afraid to live her life on her own.
“Daddy, stop asking me if I’m sure that I want to stay with you. If I hear that one more time, I will scream,” Rita shouted at the breakfast table. They were discussing selling her furniture and giving notice on her apartment. Bart had been covering the cost of her rent as she recovered.
“Don’t raise your voice to me, Little girl,” Bart warned.
“AAAHHH!” she defied him with an ear-piercing screech.
Before her mouth even snapped shut, Bart unlocked the tray on her high chair. Plucking her from the seat, he draped her over his lap and began stripping off her pants.
“No, Daddy. I didn’t mean to yell,” Rita said, backpedaling to avoid a spanking.
Bart did not answer. His heavy hand came down on her pale skin, leaving a red handprint. As her voice rose again to a yell at him to stop, Bart smacked her bottom again and again until his Little girl laid sobbing over his lap. His hand gentled, rubbing over the fiery skin to soothe her.
He knew it would be easier for her to talk honestly without looking at him. Caressing her punished bottom, he waited to hear the truth that he had been waiting for. Her arms wrapped around his calf, hugging him close to her body as her sobs diminished. Bart stifled a laugh as he felt her use his pant leg to wipe her tears away.
“Daddy? I’m sorry that I haven’t told you the whole truth. I’m afraid that you only want me because you’re guilty that I lost my memory jumping into your truck, and you feel that you need to take care of me,” she admitted in the shuddering breaths still lingering from her sobs.
“I am very sorry that you got hurt in my truck,” he said, lifting her curvy body to sit up now on his lap so he could look at her. “That is not the reason that I want you with me. I love you, honey. I love your Little side, and I love the strong woman that you are inside. I don’t want to care for you because of guilt or feeling of obligation. I want to keep you with me forever because my life is happier with you in it. I’ve been looking for my Little girl forever. You are the one who I’ve been searching for. You complete my life.”
He watched the impact of his heartfelt words register on Rita’s face. A brilliant smile spread across her face chasing the red, blotchiness of her tears away.
“You love me?” she asked.
“I love you with all my heart, Ritagirl,” he answered before leaning in to kiss her tenderly.
“I really want to stay with you. Can we get rid of all my stuff? I don’t need it,” she asked, holding his gaze steadily.
Bart knew that he’d erased her previously unspoken reservations. She was ready and able to make the decision that he’d been waiting to hear. “We’ll go today to pick up anything that you’d like to keep, and then, I’ll arrange for everything left to be sold. We’ll put the money in an account for you to use however you wish.”
Rita nodded happily. “Thanks, Daddy.” She lifted her lips to offer them to him.
Kissing her deeply, Bart felt the final link click firmly into place. Now, they could enjoy the rest of their lives together. Lifting his head, Bart stood and tossed his precious Little over his shoulder before jogging down the hallway to their bedroom. She deserved a reward for finally telling him the whole truth. Listening to her giggles as he carried her through the house, Bart couldn’t resist giving that enticing bottom a playful swat.
“Daddy!” his Little protested, giggling even more.
Chapter 27
Bart had finally declared that Rita could learn to ride Gumdrop. Her headaches had dwindled down to occur very infrequently. The motion didn’t make her sick. He’d already warned her he’d pull her off Gumdrop immediately if she started to feel bad.
Rita had promised that she’d tell him the truth. The Little knew the consequences of lying to her Daddy. She’d earned two red bottoms already since Bart had decided she had recovered from worst of her concussion. The newest Little didn’t know which she disliked most, a spanking or the anal plug. She sure didn’t want to earn a punishment of both.
Dancing happily on the left side of Gumdrop, Rita chattered happily to her four-legged friend. “Hi, Gumdrop! I finally get to ride you. Isn’t that great? You’ll let me know if I’m too heavy, right? I don’t want to hurt you?”
Bart had already assured his Little that her weight would not burden the strong, young mare. He pulled her close to him to kiss her lips. “You will not hurt Gumdrop, Ritagirl. Are you ready to step up into the saddle?”
When she nodded, he gave her instructions as he held on to her waist. “Put your left foot into the stirrup and hold on to the horn of the saddle. That’s right. Good girl. Now step up on the stirrup.” Bart helped lift her into the air. “Put your right leg over and sit in the saddle.”
“Great job, Ritagirl!” he praised. “Can you put your other foot in the stirrup on the right side?”
He waited for her to smile and nod that she had her foot placed correctly. “Hold on to the reins,” he instructed, handing them to her. “Remember not too tight. You don’t want to hurt Gumdrop’s mouth.”
His Little had been determined to ride the beautiful horse throughout her recovery. Bart had taught her everything that he could in advance by setting a saddle on the top railing of the corral and letting her practice riding there. Leather strips attached to a post had served as reins to practice guiding the horse.
Holding onto the side of the bridle, Bart began to lead Gumdrop around the corral. Rita did an excellent job and looked at ease in the saddle. “You’re doing great, Ritagirl. I’m going to let go, and you ride Gumdrop around the corral.” Her smile widened as he stepped back from the bonded pair.
After a few minutes of circling, Rita asked on her next pass by Bart, “Can we go outside the corral? Just for a few minutes?” she begged.
“Go around a few more times while I get my horse saddled, and we’ll go down to the creek and swim,” Bart agreed with a smile.
“I don’t have a bathing suit here, Daddy.”
“We won’t need one, Little girl,” he answered before giving her a slow wink.
“Really?” she asked with pink tinged cheeks. When Bart nodded, she bounced in the saddle. “Let’s go, Daddy.” Her excited giggles filled the air as he jogged away to the barn.
As Bart saddled his horse, he remembered the day he had invested in the SANCTUM land. His dreams for the future had come true. Pulling his thoughts back to the present, he fit the bridle over his stallion’s head. No need to dwell on past hopes, he had a Little to spoil.
