Daddy’s Angel by K.A Knight

A Year Later…
It’s getting harder and harder to move around, and I need to pee constantly. My belly is so big, I look like I’m ready to pop, yet I have five more weeks until my due date. Sitting down, I sigh and rub my hand across it, smiling in happiness as I feel a kick from our little girl. My wedding ring sparkles in the light of the living room.
Our wedding was beautifully intimate and small, just like I wanted. Only the people we love attended. My girls performed and sang for us, and I even sang a song I wrote for Tyler as a surprise and made him cry. Our wedding picture hangs above the fire, and I can’t help but tear up as I see it.
Stupid hormones.
I wasn’t expecting to get pregnant so quickly, but honestly, it’s such an exciting time, and I can’t wait to meet my daughter. She will be spoiled, but I know Tyler is excited to be a father again, even if it sometimes hurts him to think of the son he lost.
I had to take a break from work. I couldn’t perform anymore when I got too big, but I plan on going back after the birth and when I’m ready to. I want to spend some time with my daughter before I do—this is my first child, after all. Tyler fully supports that decision and whatever else I want to do. The play I’m in and the club both assure me my jobs will be there when I get back. My girls are excited too, the whole lot of performers already spoiling this baby. She will never be alone like I was. She has such a big family she won’t know what to do. I even asked Allegra and Blair to be godparents.
Just then, the door opens, and I lift my head as I hear him strip off his coat and shoes and head my way. “Angel?” he calls.
“In here!” I reply.
He comes in and smiles when he sees me, his grin stretching across his handsome face. If possible, he only gets better looking the more he ages. He crouches before the sofa I’m on, kissing my belly. “Hello, daddy’s girl,” he whispers before standing up and kissing me. “Hello, daddy’s angel,” he teases, making me laugh as I smack his side.
He sits next to me, resting his hand on my belly, over our future.
Who knew such tragedy could lead to such happiness?
I went from a boring, unhappy relationship, to the best thing to ever happen to me. Love can be so unexpected, and if you’re not careful, you can miss it completely. You have to be open for it, ready to accept what you deserve, but when you get it, you hold on tight and never let go, because there is nothing else like it in the world. You spend your life searching for it, you spend nights finding hints of it in strangers’ bodies…but it never compares to the real thing.
To the forever kind.
The kind I found with my daddy, and now I’m going to be a mummy. My heart is so full, it hurts and overflows from my eyes. All my life, I never knew what true happiness was until now. And it’s all thanks to Tyler Phillips, my silver god.
“You had a good day?” he asks, interrupting my thoughts.
“Yeah, apart from the fact that my feet and back are killing me. Oh and I had to pee like a million times.” I pout.
“Oh, baby, want me to kiss it better?” he offers, his eyes darkening in lust.
“Uh, that’s what got us into this in the first place,” I tease, but he drops to his knees and begins to massage my feet, making me groan. His lips drag up my thighs and pull my dress higher as I settle back.
Since I became pregnant, he can’t seem to keep his hands off me. I usually wake up with his tongue or his fingers inside me—an incredible morning wake up, if I do say so myself.
“Well, if you insist, Daddy,” I moan, closing my eyes as he chuckles.
“I do, Angel. Let me make you feel good, let me love you.”
I sigh in happiness, letting him do whatever he wants to me…
After all, I’m just daddy’s angel.
