Free Her Doctor Daddy by Shelly Douglas

locked the front door and ran to my back window, which overlooks the parking lot. It was just getting dark out and he had to have known that someone was watching him drag that woman into the car. As his head rose to look up, he stared at me. I’ll never forget those evil eyes as long as I live. It was a stare that made me shiver. ”
    The camera quickly cut to the broadcaster sitting behind his desk. “ Laura Lytle told her friends she was going for a quick swim after work last night, but she never returned to her room in the Stardust Apartments. If anyone has seen her or has additional information, please call the police immediately at either of these numbers… ”
    As they flashed her picture on screen with the hotline numbers running underneath it, Raul stood up and turned the television off.
    “Just listening to that report made the skin on the back of my neck prickle,” Lexi said, her voice trembling.
    He crossed his arms and arched a dark eyebrow. “I’m not very happy about you living here alone, kiddo.”
    “Well, I don’t think I’d be welcome moving in with Ronnie and Katie. Come on, you’ve been driving me to work every night, whether it’s your shift or not. So, except for two days a week, I’m not here overnight by myself.”
    “It just doesn’t seem safe to me,” he said, returning to the couch. “Since we’re both off tonight, I can sleep right here,” he said, patting the large cushion. “This looks comfortable enough.”
    She snuggled back into his lap. “Don’t you think it would be cozier in my bed?”
    “Uh-huh,” he said, maneuvering her over his knee to apply a playful swat to her bottom.
    “Ouch!” she yelped, attempting to protect her backside with one hand. “Come on, it’ll be like a sleepover.”
    But he caught her wrist with quick agility and landed another resounding smack to the seat of her shorts with his large palm. “Go get ready for bed, young lady and I’ll tuck you in. Unless you’d care to argue with me some more,” he warned, reaching for his belt.
    Just being over his knee like that managed to cause a flurry of action inside her pussy, and she was a little sad that he was cutting their play short. “No, sir,” she said in a disappointed tone, rolling off his lap. “There are a couple of blankets in the hall closet. I’ll get you one.”

    Lexi’s eyes flew open as all the air had been forced from her lungs. A hideous yelping noise was coming from the outside and it was getting louder. Without a sound coming from her throat, she stumbled out of the bed and rushed into the living room. When she saw that Raul wasn’t on the couch, she panicked and ran into the kitchen, her heart pumping furiously as she stopped dead in her tracks to find him sitting on top of the kitchen counter, casually popping a grape into his mouth.
    “What’s the matter, sweet pea?” he asked, hopping down to take her by the shoulders.
    Confused, she peered up into his warm eyes. “Didn’t you hear that woman crying outside?”
    “The yowling out back? Lexi, that’s just a couple of cats in heat,” he said, gesturing toward the parking lot of the apartment complex. “They’re obviously looking for someone to love tonight,” he joked, hugging her close.
    She buried her head into his chest, her eyes filling with tears. “Oh, my God… I thought…”
    “Hey, hey, it’s okay. I should’ve turned the damn television off sooner. That gruesome report scared the crap out of you.”
    “At first I figured it was a nightmare. It sounded like someone was being kidnapped… or worse.” She realized her knees were wobbly, and he must have noticed it too, since he put his strong arms under her legs to swoop her up.
    “Do you think I’m being silly, Raul?”
    “No, there are terrifying things going on in this city, and that’s why it bothers me when you’re alone. Especially at night.”
    “Can I sleep on the couch with you? I promise not to be a bother,” she
