“Come on. Let’s get you dressed. They are waiting for us.”
He pulled her into the bedroom and looked for the outfit he wanted. He opened a new package of panties and pulled out a pink one.
He bent forward. “Here, honey. Let’s get these on.”
She balanced herself with a hand on his shoulder and stepped into the panties. He pulled them up and stood.
Her stomach twisted with nerves when he started to unbutton the shirt of his he let her wear. She watched his expressions when he slipped it off her shoulders. She could feel the blush start on her face and slide down her chest. If he didn’t like the way she looked, she didn’t know what she would do.
“You’re beautiful, baby.”
She exhaled and smiled at him. “No one has seen me naked since my nanny still bathed me when I was eight or nine.”
“You had a nanny?”
“A few of them.”
“Did you get to see your parents?”
“My father made sure he spent time with me every day. My mother, I didn’t see as much, but I’m glad. She’s always been cold to me. I can tell she never liked me.”
“I’m sorry, sweetheart.”
She shrugged. It was all she knew.
He got her into a bra. She knew she’d have to get her own since the one she had on was tight, and her boobs were popping out the top. He buttoned her into a white blouse and then pulled on a long skirt.
“We’ll have to order some shoes today for you.”
She nodded as he pulled on the only shoes she had.
“I wish we could go to the house. I have a ton of shoes. Most of them I’ve never worn.”
“Not yet. But soon, maybe we’ll be able to go there. Let me get the file, and then we’ll leave.”
She leaned against him in the elevator.
“Honey, if you get tired or scared or just need me, come to me and sit on my lap so I can hold you.”
“What if you’re in a meeting or on the phone?”
“I don’t care. You’re my priority now.”
Her heart felt like it was about ready to burst out of her chest. To have a man like Cason wanting to take care of her was beyond anything she dreamed of because she thought she’d be stuck in that horrible house for the rest of her life.
Now, because of Cason, she possibly had a future to look forward to.
