"Take her," the dangerous man orders casually, like I'm the most boring little human he's ever encountered in his life.

"I said stay the fuck away!" I yell at him this time, causing him to tilt his head in amusement.

"A little girl like you shouldn't be swearing at your elders. It's bad habit. Your daddy should have taught you better."

Hold on. My daddy. And if I heard correctly the first time, the other man had mentioned something about 'daughter' and 'grown woman'. Shit! What's going on? This must be Darius Hunter! And how do they know about my existence!? Oh no! My father! Have they taken him? Have they hurt him?

"Darius... Hunter?" I stutter in sheer terror, the dangerous man tensing as I mention his name.

"You know my name. I don't know if I should be impressed or disappointed," Darius chuckles, amusement seeping into his tone.

"Errrm... I... Where's my father...?" My demand sounds more like a plea, my voice shuddering in painful anticipation.

"Waiting for you at my place. He said we should come get you. I didn't expect you to be old enough to beat up my man. I am definitely impressed, and your value, my dear, has just gone up."

Her Master's desire

<p>Today is my baby girl's first day of school, and I've decided to make it all about her. You can judge me all you want for lurking in the back of the classroom, probably making every other kid uncomfortable, but let me be clear: my daughter is here, and her well-being trumps anyone else's comfort right now.</p>

<p>The teacher has shot me the "get out" glare at least a dozen times, her face practically twitching with frustration. I get it—she's trying to keep the class on track, but I couldn't care less. My focus is on Dora, who's seated up front, completely unphased by my presence or anyone else's. She's locked in on whatever's projected on the screen, her tiny frame sitting straight with her full attention on the lesson.</p>
