Chapter One

“Once upon a tiirl ent to sleep exactly when she was asked to The end” Meredith set the book down in her lap and looked pointedly at the little girl sitting up in her bed

“That’s not how the story goes,” Alice said pointedly

“How do you know?” Meredith blinked innocently at her charge “You’ve never read it”

“I’ve read enough,” Alice mumbled

“Either way, it’s time for bed” Meredith was firm She didn’t want to be Nobody wanted to be firh Alice’s father paid Meredith a lot of s went smoothly He ay a lot on business, and he was constantly working As a single dad, he just didn’t have the time to offer Alice that she needed That here Meredith came in

Sometimes her job was very difficult, but ood little girl, and despite the fact that she hated bedti to bed sucked

Period

Meredith in particular was quite bad about going to sleep on tih Daniel, Alice’s father, tried to institute a strict everyone-goes-to-sleep-by-ten policy, that just didn’t work for Meredith Like a naughty kitten, she was sneaky Only, she didn’t sneak food or string She sneaked books Long after Meredith told her e to bed, she’d lay in bed reading She’d browse book after book on her Kindle and just let herself becoinary worlds

And oh, she loved it

Meredith loved getting swept away in ical worlds where the Daddy Doms spanked their littles, where the service submissives were always rewarded, and where the Dommes always found true love in their subround BDSM clubs, and she loved touching herself to stories where good lovers were rewarded and naughty submissives were spanked
