The Ties That Bind Us: (The Ties Duet Part One) by Danda K. (best books to read for knowledge txt) 📗

discouraged since the witch flew out on her broomstick, I decide to take a shower. I grab a towel out of Jaxon’s room and head for the bathroom, almost tripping over Magnet, who’s stopped to rub his face against my legs. I peek out into the hallway and hear Jaxon still busy having a tea party.

I put all of my stuff down and walk towards the bed instead. Climbing on, I tap the soft surface to get the feline raccoon’s attention, and he jumps up immediately. Grabbing my book off the nightstand, I get comfortable as he climbs on my lap, purring, and lays between my legs as I start to read.

I must have fallen asleep with Magnet because the next thing I know, I wake up to Jaxon removing my glasses and placing them on the nightstand.

“What time is it?” My voice is scratchy as I rub my tired eyes.

“It’s almost ten, Nyx.” My eyes open in surprise.

“I’ve been asleep for almost five hours?” I check for my cuddle buddy and notice he’s long gone.

I hear soft breathing filling the quiet of the room we’re in and look around for where the sound is coming from.

“I installed one of those video monitors in Emersyn’s room.” Jaxon points towards the little white box he set up on the nightstand. I nod and stretch my arms, feeling more awake and refreshed.

I get up and head to the dresser for actual pajamas to put on instead of my work clothes.

Once I have my fleece bottoms and white tee out, I pull my black work shirt over my head and slide my black jeans down my legs. Just as I reach behind me to unclasp my bra, I feel Jaxon’s cool fingers brush against the skin on my back as he removes the clasp for me.

His warm breath tickles my neck when his seductive voice whispers, “Hey, baby.”

He kisses me softly on the area, and I feel my body relaxing even more. He hugs me from behind as he looks at me through the standing mirror I’m in front of.

“I’ve missed you.” He takes my straightened hair and moves it all to one side of my neck.

I feel the heat creep up my neck when I look over my shoulder at him, responding softly, “I was barely gone an hour today.”

“I know, I just feel like I’ve been so distracted with Emersyn. Things are a bit different now.” He kisses my lips, my back still to him, and I feel his finger circle my belly button.

Jaxon grabs the straps of my opened bra and slides them over my shoulders, letting it fall to the floor, my bare breasts now exposed in the mirror. He kisses the crook of my neck again, and a slight whimper escapes my lips as his fingers travel lower down my abdomen.

I catch his eyes in the mirror staring at me as he continues to guide his hand lower and lower. I instinctively press my backside into him, trying to escape the sensation but also begging for more. I look away from the mirror, a bit uncomfortable with watching what’s happening.

“Look at us, baby.” He turns my head to the mirror. “Look how perfectly your body responds to me.”

I want to close my eyes, but I’m suddenly intrigued, so I watch what he’s doing. My arousal is already soaking my panties, and once the tip of his finger reaches the elastic rim of my underwear, I take a deep, shaky breath.

He pulls the material away from my body with his finger, then lets it go, watching as I jump from the slap of the fabric against my skin. Breathing heavier, I watch as his whole hand is hidden underneath the lace, his finger circling the tiny bud there. My knees give out slightly, and Jaxon holds me up with his other hand around my waist.

“Charming...” I breathe out as a warning, and he moves faster before sliding two fingers inside me, pumping in and out as his thumb works my outside. “Ahhhh...” I’m louder now, unable to contain my desire for him.

He grabs my neck, lifting my chin with his finger as he whispers into my mouth, “Shhh baby, you gotta be quiet.” He curls his fingers inside, and I arch my back into him, feeling his hardness through his sweatpants. My climax is just on the horizon, and I’m desperate for it to consume me.

The sound of a quiet knocking on his bedroom door pierces the moment, bringing me to my senses. I separate myself from Jaxon, literally, and throw some clothes over my body.

“Daddy...?” Knock-knock. “Daddy...?”

Jaxon adjusts himself inside his pants and wipes his hands off with an old t-shirt on the floor.

And that’s one way to kill the mood.

He runs over to the door and opens it to find little Emersyn standing there in her pajamas, blanket in hand, and the bottoms of her pants drenched.

“Did she sweat in there?” I ask as I point to her bottoms.

Jaxon looks and shakes his head. “She must have peed through her diaper.”

He picks her up and brings her into the bathroom. Magnet follows behind him, curious as to where Jaxon is taking the baby.

It seems the feline child has a thing for the human child.

Magnet follows Emersyn around everywhere when she’s here and even kicks her toys around as she plays. For a serpent, he’s surprisingly gentle with her. Even the one time she accidentally stepped on him. He didn’t scratch her, just let out a loud meow and ran off.

I hear the bathwater turn on, and little giggles echo into the room. I peek in and notice Jaxon hasn’t grabbed her any clothes or a towel yet, so I head off to get some, so he doesn’t have to leave her unattended.

“Here,” I hand Jaxon her things, and he smiles at me, a look of surprise on his face. Okay? Does he think so little of me he’s shocked I’d help make things easier for him?

I look at
