The accident of Oliver's parents was not convincing for me. A foul play is definitely involved considering the enormous inheritance Ollie will be left with. This also means that as long as I don't exterminate the root of the problems, Oliver's safety will remain at stake. However, I will not let them succeed. I will exhaust my resources to keep my baby safe.
"-ddy. Daddy! Are you alright?" Oliver snapped me out of my thoughts and cupped my cheeks, his eyes filled with worry.
I smiled and nodded, then pinched his adorable cheek softly. "I'm fine, Ollie."
"What are you thinking about?" He asked and wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my chest, his eyes gazing up at me.
"You." My immediate response made got him to blush furiously and buried his face on my chest with a soft groan.
"You're so embarrassing," he mumbled softly and tightened his grin on me, while I laughed a little at his adorableness. I slid my arms around his waist and rested my chin on his head while sporting a wide grin.
When Oliver murmured an I love you, I bit my lower lip to contain the giddy smile from slipping. "I love you more, baby," I whispered back, our hearts pounding so loud.
Ollie giggled and pressed his cheek on my chest and glanced at me. "Daddy, your heart is so loud. Just like mine," he commented shyly and plastered his ear right where my heart is located. When my fingers dug on his soft hair, he closed his eyes and sighed contentedly.
I find joy in every single thing Oliver does which is a first for me. My baby is content whenever I shower him attention and just my presence gets him all giddy and happy. He doesn't know how he makes me just as happy when he leans into my touch and melts into my kisses.
Usually, I needed to arrange an expensive dinner or anything luxurious to impress my past littles and exes, but with Oliver, he makes it easy for me to enjoy his company. Being with him is never tiring. He's a breath of fresh air.
A simple kiss, a tight hug, and cuddles with Oliver would make his day and I would be rewarded by his cheerful giggles and wide smiles.
With a gentle kiss on the top of his head, we went downstairs and activated the security alarm before leaving the house. A black sedan was waiting for us, with Trevor and Devon on the side of the car.
Oliver escaped from my grasp and cheerfully waved at my security details who are also my best of friends. Through thick and thin, Trevor, Devon, and I will have each other's backs. We have surpassed difficult problems that just strengthened our bonds.
However, I was surprised when Oliver approached Devon and Trevor with a thrilled grin.
"Trev! Dev! You are both coming with us? That's so cool. The more, the merrier!" Oliver cheered and beamed at the two. Trevor's lip lifted into a small smile and nodded, while Devon gave Oliver a thumbs up.
With an amused smile and a curious expression, I stepped forward and wrapped my arms around Oliver's shoulders. Oliver glanced at me and chuckled softly.
"Now this is curious. Care to tell me how you met my friends?" I asked my baby and caressed his cheeks. Oliver nodded eagerly and slid in between Trevor and Devon, holding each of their hands, surprising the two bodyguards. Trevor lifted his brow while Devon glanced at me for permission. I smiled in approval to let them know that it was alright.
The three of us are possessive when it comes to the person we adore. More than the feeling of possessiveness, we tend to get overprotective and we do not let something pass when our lovers get distressed.
Seeing Oliver get comfortable with Trevor and Devon is a nice change. It means that Oliver is comfortable with their presence and I'm so happy for my baby. It's nice to see Oliver gain some friends.
"You see, Stef, I saw Trev and Dev in the kitchen when I woke up last night. I was thirsty and I didn't want to wake you up so I went downstairs alone." I opened my mouth to argue but Oliver shook his head. "No, daddy. Listen to me, " Oliver reprimanded me in a stern voice but the way he delivered the words was just plain adorable. His cheeks were blown, his brows furrowed, and his arms crossed over his chest.
Trevor and Devon almost guffawed but when I narrowed his eyes at them, they hid their amusement in cough and stood straight, masking their expression, but their eyes are twinkling in pure enjoyment of the situation. I just shook my head and focused my attention back on my baby when he called me again.
"Daddy! Listen, please. You should listen to Ollie first. Okay?" Damn. Hearing Oliver talk in the third person makes me want to coo and hug him so tight, and just cage him in my arms without any intention of letting go.
I had no choice but to nod, extremely amused. From my periphery, I caught Trevor and Devon snickering, having the time of their lives while Oliver, as cute as he is, tried to scold me for not paying attention.
Damn friends. I'll get back to you later. I turned to Oliver and gave him my undivided attention. "Go on, love. I'm listening." A faint blush crept on his cheeks but he regained his composure. Yup. My baby is the most adorable of all.
"Okay. When I went downstairs, I saw Trev and Dev watching tv in the den and I asked for their help. I can only walk so much after what you did to me, but I love it, so don't worry," Oliver reassured me and grinned at me like the darling he was. After that, he went to tell how kind my friends are and how they told him stories about their families.
I arched my brow at Trevor and Devon. They just shrugged and shook their heads, throwing me a 'we can't resist him' look. I nodded in understanding. It is difficult to resist Oliver, especially when you're subjected to his sparkling gaze and bright smile. I melt every single time and I'm not ashamed to admit that
My past littles and exes didn't have a chance to meet Trevor and Devon because the two disapproved of my choices in lovers. However, my friends feel differently when it comes to Oliver. They seemed to adore my baby and I'm alright with that.
Trevor Hathaway is living the same lifestyle as me. His little and boyfriend is a university student and the two have been in a relationship for three years. I never expected that Trevor can fall this hard and I'm so happy for him. I'm just waiting for a wedding invite because I can already hear the wedding bells. Jesse, Trevor's boyfriend, deserves all the happiness after what he went through.
Jesse didn't have a pleasant and cozy home environment. Trevor already addressed Jesse's problems and the two are happier than ever. I don't even want to know what Trevor did, but I am certain that it is far from pretty.
Devon Slane, on the other hand, is a Master Dominant and a part-owner of a very prestigious and strict BDSM Club, Club Echaines. He is still apprehensive about taking a permanent submissive or even having a permanent relationship, seeing as how Devon was betrayed by his recent ex. The scar runs deep, causing Devon to retreat to his shell and avoid relationships and attachments in general. It's a welcome sight that he's enjoying Oliver's company.
However, I have a feeling that things will definitely change and Devon's life will turn a hundred and eighty because of a certain employee. Just last week, a smart, gorgeous, yet shy boy applied as a bartender in Bar Enchaines, the wholesome counterpart of Club Enchaines. Definitely Devon's type.
I had the chance to interview the innocent boy and I am certain that Devon will fall so hard for him. Since I am also a part-owner of the club, I immediately approved the boy's application and made sure to provide the boy with everything he needs. It's nice to play matchmaker once in a while.
Everything is all good. Elijah is a sweet and good boy. I can't wait to see the look on Devon's face when he finally sets his eyes on the brown-haired, blue-eyed boy.
I glanced at Oliver and an idea formed in my mind. It would be amazing to let Oliver meet Jesse and Elijah. Oliver can hang out with them whenever I get busy, but I will never get too busy for Oliver. He will always be my priority.
Oliver will always be my priority.

If Tie can speak, I will definitely get admonished by the way I almost squeezed my precious stuffie. Well, I am so happy to have Tie in my arms, and second, I am in high spirits. Stefan helped me retrieve Tie and Trevor and Devon also assisted me in packing my things and bringing them downstairs. Thankfully, I didn't unpack all the way. I just moved and some of my things are still in my boxes.
"Baby, I love your room. Did you paint all of this?" Stefan pointed to the paintings being covered by white fabric. He was examining each of my works with so much admiration that it made my heart swell.
With a shy smile, I nodded. "I love painting. It helps me reduce stress and explore my creativity at the same time." Stefan turned to me with a soft expression and when he opened his arms, I didn't hesitate to jump into his embrace.
Stefan cupped my cheeks and showered my face with butterfly kisses while telling me how talented and admirable I am. His words of praises caused butterflies to swarm in my belly and plastered a delighted grin on my lips.
Stefan rested his chin on top of my head while I wrapped my arms around his waist, my cheek on his firm chest, as we swayed our bodies to his gentle humming. It didn't take long before we started slow dancing while I giggled from too much giddiness.
Stefan always puts a smile on my face and I love it. I love the feeling of Stefan's gentle hands on me. I love the warmth of his soft hugs. I love the feel of his passionate kisses. I love the sound of his voice and laughter, and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to love a lot of things as we go further into our relationship.
A few days ago, I would not have expected to dance intimately with my lover in the privacy of my bedroom. I didn't imagine receiving gentle touches and kisses since I don't have the courage to forge a bond with others because of paranoia. There were a lot of things I never expected to happen, and I'm so glad it was Stefan who fulfilled them for me. I don't even want to imagine how heartbroken I would be if I realize that this is all a dream.
Just the thought of being anxious and having to deal with my panic attacks on my own again was starting to terrify me. My breathing started to pick up and small tremors made their way to my fingers. No. Not now, Ollie. Not now. Don't ruin the mood. Calm down.
I took a deep breath to calm my nerves and thought of happy things. Anything that would bring me to my happy place would suffice however, the opposite happened. My happy memories with my parents turned distorted and all I remember were the times they harassed and trespassed in my residence. The paranoia and horror started to reverberate through my whole being.
My body tensed up, my breathing turned heavy, and tears burned the rim of my eyes. Stefan went still and took a peek at me, then paled slightly when he saw my condition. "D-Daddy..."
Stefan cursed carried me bridal style, every step urgent, as he delivered soothing words to my ears. "Baby, Ollie, hang on. You'll be fine. I will never leave you, okay? Take deep breaths, my love," he whispered and kissed my forehead.
I nodded and practiced my breathing exercises and nuzzled on his throat, hoping that his scent will help me calm down. I want to tell him that I'll be alright but I don't think I will be for a few minutes. Still, it comforts me to know that Stefan cares for me.
