Turning, he glared down at her. “You brat. Are you teasing me?”

“Not me, Daddy. I would never.” More giggles.

Shoot. Betrayed by her giggling.

“Seems we might need to visit that punishment room sooner rather than later,” he murmured.

“Daddy!” she cried. He wouldn’t!

Then he winked at her and she relaxed.

“Good afternoon.”

She let out a small scream as a man stepped out from behind the teddy bear.

Holy heck balls.

Had he been there the whole time?

“Sorry to give you a fright, Little Miss,” he said kindly.

“My name is Reuben Jones. Glaze said she put my name in the register. I called a few hours ago to book in our visit.”

“Certainly, sir. And Little Miss.” The man winked down at her, and she smiled shyly up at him. “Welcome to A Little Bit of Fun. It’s a pleasure to meet you both. I’m Edward. Please come with me.” He opened the doors wide.

Honestly, it was like stepping into a whole new world. Above them, a toy eagle flew around, seemingly on its own. The floor was covered with yeti-sized footprints which pointed toward one side of the store. There were rows of toys ahead of them.

She gasped as she saw an actual princess castle at the back of the store.

Wow.

“As this is your first time here, I’ll go through a few things with you. Littles are required to be with their Bigs at all times. We have carts that can easily accommodate a Little. If the Little Miss wants to sit in the cart, she will need to be strapped in for her own safety. We have baby and toddler carts.”

What?

Edward led them over to several brightly-colored carts, similar to those you might find in a supermarket.

At the front of the cart, there were either capsule seats that reclined back for an adult-sized baby or upright seats like those for a toddler.

But she didn’t want to sit in either of them. She wanted to move around. To touch things.

And she really wanted to go look at their fairy castle at the back of the store.

“I don’t want to sit in a cart. Please, Daddy. I want to explore,” she whispered.

Edward seemed nice, but she was still a bit embarrassed to let her Little out in front of a stranger.

“Okay, baby. I’ll just push the cart, and if you get tired, you can get in.”

Ordinarily, she’d think that was crazy. But she was feeling tired.

“Very well,” Edward said. “We also have some restraints if you think that your Little is likely to wander off.”

Restraints? What kind of freaking restraints?

Edward pointed to some things hanging from the wall. There were pink and blue harnesses with a long lead attached.

Umm. She didn’t think so.
