Page 58 of Possessing Paisley
Ihaven’t experienced a lot of emotions in my life. Being brought up in the mafia, it was ingrained in me to be tough, ruthless, and stoic. Never let anyone see anything other than that. But this woman. This little, smart-mouthed demon of mine brings me to my fucking knees. She protected me from Olivia. She threatened the woman with bodily harm for me. Being possessive is in my nature, but having Paisley be possessive of me means everything. More than I could ever explain to her.
She turns to me, her eyes searching. “Are you okay, Daddy?”
Tipping my head down, I stare at her in a state of shock. “Am I okay?”
“Yes. Are you okay?”
I yank her into my arms, crushing her against my chest. “I love you, Paisley Mae. For the rest of my life, I’m going to make you the happiest woman in the world. You’re my everything, Little one.”
She squeezes me around the waist and sighs. “You make me feel more loved than I’ve ever felt before. I love you so much.”
We stand in silence for a few moments, holding each other. When she releases me and takes a step back, her eyes sparkle with mischief.
“If I ever catch you letting another woman touch you, though, I’ll put a piranha in your underwear. I don’t care what kind of scene you have to make. No one touches what’s mine. Got it?”
Chuckling, I nod. “Got it, baby.”
Cage strolls up to us. “Can I interrupt and borrow Kieran for a moment?”
I scowl at him. “What the fuck are you doing here?”
It’s weird seeing Cage in a suit. Normally, he’s in jeans and boots, yet he looks just as comfortable all dressed up. The guy is an enigma. But also, why the fuck is he at my girl’s party?
His gaze shifts to Paisley, and suddenly, I’m considering slitting a throat. His.
“The girls invited me. We’re friends,” he answers, smiling at Paisley.
I turn and glare at Paisley. “You’re not fucking friends with him.”
Her mouth drops open, and she narrows her eyes. “You don’t get to tell me who I’m friends with. Now, if you’ll excuse me, Chloe is waving me over.” She sticks her tongue out at me, then winks at Cage. “Good to see you, Cage. Thanks for coming.”
Her ass sways as she walks off, and my cock twitches. That brat just goaded me. Not only am I fucking her ass tonight, but I’m spanking it too until she agrees not to be friends with this asshole.
“Stay away from her,” I snap.
Cage grins and shrugs. “I was just as surprised as you that they invited me. What can I say? I’m charming.”
I grunt. “Be less fucking charming.”
“I’m not sure that’s possible. It just comes so naturally. Maybe I can teach you a thing or two.”
Jesus Christ. I’m sitting all four of those girls down tomorrow and making some rules for them. I’m sure Bash, Killian, and Declan would agree with me. Do they even know Cage is here?
“Anyway, here’s the information you asked me for. I think you’re going to be surprised by what you see.” He hands me a piece of paper with an address and phone number on it. An Olympia address. Not far away. Interesting.
“Thanks,” I murmur.
Cage slaps me on the shoulder. “You know, if you weren’t so fucking grumpy all the time, you might see that I’m actually a good guy with those girls’ best interest and safety at heart. Besides, as sweet as they are, I prefer my women to play a bit Littler. I like to be needed and to take care of their most basic needs. Maybe it’s the control freak in me.”
Interesting. I can’t really see Cage being soft enough for a younger Little, but the man does often surprise me. I guess he only shows us the side he wants us to see. Then again, I guess all of us do that.
“Thanks for getting this information. I owe you one.”
He nods. “Yeah. You do. Now, I’m going to go hug and congratulate the girls on their amazing achievement.”
“Don’t you dare hug Paisley,” I bark at him as he walks away.
The asshole just laughs.
