Daddy's Little Lamb

Chapter 4

“No… way…” Stanley uttered in disbelief after recognizing who the voice belongs to.

But why would she call him honey?

No, there’s got to be some misunderstanding here. However, the fact remains that she’s the only person beside him in this house! There’s no way a ghost coincidentally sounded like his daughter!

Then why would she even be there in his room!?

He immediately pulled up his pants and frantically got off the bed to open the lights. He even stumbled on his way, but he didn’t care! Right at that moment, his mind was only focusing on one thing.

‘Please no… please don’t let it be her…’

Stanley prayed as he searched for the switch. However, once he turned it on, the glaring light radiated, illuminating the room, and there he saw his daughter looking wasted while her face was smeared with the familiar sticky substance that he ejaculated.

“Rhian…?” he whispered badly, wanting to deny what was in front of him.

Nevertheless, no matter how much he pleaded the heavens, the truth was unveiled before his eyes. The girl lifted her head upon hearing her name. Stanley froze in his spot when he realized what he had done and to whom he did it with.

“It wasn’t a dream…” it dawned on him.

His body turned sluggish as he fell on the marbled floor seemingly like a gelatin. He felt all the strength in his body was drained in an instant, not knowing what to make out of this event himself.

‘You animal! What have you done?’

Stanley suddenly remembered how he lusted over the girl in his dreams and how his train of thoughts arrived at wanting to feel more of her.

‘Was it good, huh? You even wonder how it would feel inside her? Too bad it’s a dream? Damn it! Good for you, bastard! Now, it’s not a dream!’ his previous words replayed like a slap on his face, mocking every part of him. ‘Take a good look at who she is! It was your daughter you wanted to bang in your sleep, you piece of s**t!’

It didn’t matter if he was aware of it or not. He still made her an object of his desire! His stomach churned and wanted to turn, feeling nauseous and disgusted by the way he acted. He ran to the bathroom quickly and sounds of his gagging could be heard resonating throughout the area.

Not long after, a gentle hand started to stroke his back. Rubbing it softly to help him ease his vomiting a little. However, the gesture only made Stanley become more guilty and pathetic.

“Don’t touch me!” he deflected her touch and hit her hand away.

‘Don’t touch me, Rhian. I’m a disgusting person. I’m such a horrible dad! So, please…’

“Stay away from me!”

What makes him different to those people who tormented her? Protect her? Yeah right, Stanley! What a good and protective father you are! How can you not even recognize her?

“Seriously, Stan. I honestly think this will not work anymore. You’re a fine bachelor who’s only in your mid-20’s and yet you’re calling a young lady who has just reached adulthood your daughter? Who would believe in such a messy arrangement?”

I should’ve listened to my brother. He was right. This won’t work! This is such a messy arrangement. I’m a mess for taking advantage of you!

He was lost in his self-abhorrence when his ears picked up the girl’s sobbing.

“No… I don’t want to!” she cried. “Why are you… pushing me away?” Rhian slumped on the floor and hugged him from the back. “Why are you so relentless on kicking me out? Did I do something wrong to make you hate me?”

He spun around to face the girl who was crying a river of tears. If it was over something normal, he would’ve made fun of her ugly expression, but now, he can’t even think like he normally would.

Stanley wiped her tears off and hushed her to calm her down, but she just cried more. So, he held her closer to his chest while patting her back with his trembling hand.

“You did nothing wrong, Rhian. It was me who wronged you. And I just don’t know how to face you right now. I’m not pushing you away.”

“Is it because you treated me roughly?” her hands clutched his shirt as if she was holding on to her last rope in life. “I-It was very hard and big, that it couldn’t fit my mouth and you were moving so fast and deep that I almost couldn’t breathe...”

Rhian burrowed her head further into Stanley’s chest, feeling embarrassed about what she was narrating. The man’s face turned beet red while he was listening to her words.

He knew that he was carrying a rifle, but he thought that it was just relatively bigger than normal. Hearing her comment on his size made him feel a little hot and uncomfortable.

‘Snap out of it, Stan!’ he reprimanded himself.

Rhian looked up at him and met his eyes. Her flushed face and flattering gaze made him gulp unconsciously.

“…But as long as you like it. I will do my best to take every piece of you, honey.”

“…!!”

Without a warning, Stanley hit his face to get back to his senses. It’s one thing to have something wrong with him, but Rhian calling him honey instead of dad is a completely different matter!

With trembling hands, he grabbed her shoulders and made her look straight at him.

“Why…? Why are you calling me honey!? I’m your dad!”

Due to his outrage, the girl’s expression became terrified.

“You’re hurting me…”

Her eyes brimmed with tears, which instantly made Stanley regretful. So, he pulled the girl into his embrace until she quietened down.

‘What the hell are you doing, Stan? You’re taking out your rage at her!’

“I-I’m sorry. Dad is sorry, Rhian. I shouldn’t have treated you roughly… No, I shouldn’t have done anything to you in the first place. s**t! Please don’t think of it at all. Forget everything that happened tonight and go back to being daddy’s precious little lamb. Please…”

Alas, no matter whom he turns to and prays for, he can never erase the events that had transpired in her memory.

Rhian cupped his distressed face and caressed it tenderly. “Why would I forget the person I love?”

Stanley was stunned. As if her words just stirred something in his depths. He tightly balled his hand into a fist and gathered his remaining rationality.

‘No… This isn’t right. There’s definitely something wrong with her. That’s why she’s saying that nonsense. I shouldn’t be swayed.’ He took a deep breath and met her gaze.

“Dad loves you too. So, be good and just do as I say.”

Rhian frowned, “Why do you keep referring to yourself as my dad? We’re supposed to be lovers!”

“W-what?”

Stanley, recalls her words prior to the accident.

“Do you know how much my classmates pestered me after seeing you fetch me from the university?”

“They thought you’re my lover, da—d?! H-hey!”

He cast the frail girl in front of him a complicated look. Is this another prank? A glint of madness crossed his eyes but before he could do something unacceptable, his reason pulled him to the light.

‘No, she wouldn’t cross the line just for a prank. She wouldn’t, right?’

Stanley continued to convince himself and decided to take her to the doctor first thing in the morning. He should’ve taken her there instead of just calling his brother!

“You and I are father and daughter, just remember that.”

The bathroom fell in an awkward silence. Not long after, Stanley decided to take his leave. It makes him upset to see her appearance right now. As much as possible, he wanted to stay away from her and reflect on what happened, so he stood up and fixed himself.

However, before he could pass her, Rhian tugged the hem of his pants, making him stop in his tracks.

“You said that we’re not lovers…” she trailed off her words and spun around to look up to him. “Then, do father and daughter act like 'that' towards each other?”

“Tell me, do you take pleasure in doing 'it' with your daughter.... dad?”
