The Little Princess Cruise Read online

  Jace responded for both of them. “I’m sure we will. Thank you, Captain. We’ll look for our table and I’m sure we’ll see you later.”

  They made their way to the tables and again Gabby was amazed at the beauty of the dining room. There were ten chairs around each of the round tables, which were covered with first a white tablecloth and then a burgundy one, with a backdrop of white and blue coming from the lights above. The napkins were folded into intricate shapes and the white china had gold edging. The flatware was gold and the name tags for the table were on crisp white paper with gold calligraphy writing. The dining room was absolutely gorgeous.

  The place settings were boy-girl, girl-boy, boy-girl. This way there two men, two girls, two men, two girls, etc. Gabby was sitting next to Molly, which she was glad of; she liked Molly and wanted to know her better. To Gabby’s right, was a wall of testosterone—Daddy Jace and Daddy Michael. Both were very tall, large men and she wasn’t sure she liked having all that dominance next to her. Gabby noticed that Becca was sitting sandwiched between Brad and Daddy Bob. She felt kind of bad for Becca having to sit between two daddies, but after what happened in the mani/pedi room today, they probably decided she needed two daddies.

  When Becca caught her looking at her, she crossed her eyes at Gabby and did a quick flit of her tongue letting her know that she caught her pitying stare. Gabby did not want to get in anymore trouble tonight, and averted her eyes before her mouth got her into trouble.

  Daddy put his hand on her knee, “Why did Becca just stick her tongue out at you?”

  “I’m not sure, Daddy. I was just thinking how I felt bad that she had to sit between two daddies and she saw me looking at her.” Gabby’s fingers fiddled with her napkin and the pretty napkin ring shaped into a gold leaf. “I think it made her feel bad, and she got mad at me.”

  “Mmmm, I’m not sure I like her doing that to you—”

  “Daddy, don’t! Don’t you goof this up for me—”

  “Hey, hey. You keep your tone right and remember who’s in charge. You don’t give orders to me, do you?” Daddy had wrapped his hand gently around her throat, stroking her jaw line lightly with his forefinger as he spoke. His hand felt like a collar and it gave her comfort. It reminded her that he was in control.

  “No. I don’t give orders, Daddy. You do. I just don’t want her to get in trouble. She got spanked by Momma G and by her daddy. Well… at least that’s what she thought was going to happen… and I don’t want her to get in trouble again because of me.” She was stroking his inner thigh as she spoke. She liked the feel of his dress pants under her fingers, her hand stroking the hard muscles of his thigh, the toned curves exciting her.

  “First, she wouldn’t get in trouble because of you. She’d get in trouble for sticking her tongue out and instigating trouble with her rude behavior. Her attitude and actions would be the cause of her discipline, not yours.” He picked up her hand and rested it on the growing bulge under his dress pants, guiding her hand to lightly stroke his cock. His breath hitched when she took her fingernail and scraped it over his length, easing the nail back and forth over the head. He briefly closed his eyes and his nostrils flared as his arousal climbed. The muscles of his thighs jerked, and he quickly took her hand and put it back on her lap.

  He cleared his throat. “Where was I? Oh, yes. I don’t want her antagonizing you tonight. I’ll be watching, but if she continues with this behavior, you’re to let me know. I don’t want you letting this get out of control, understood?”

  “Yes, sir.

  “And for the record. Unless you want to leave early tonight, please keep your hands over there, or I may lose control and need new pants.” He winked at her and stroked the top of her hand and she felt herself relax.

  Molly was wearing a deep purple gown, the color of concord grapes in the fall. It was absolutely stunning with her auburn hair. She was happy and bubbly and Gabby found herself liking her positive energy right off. “Gabby you look so pretty in your blue dress and your nails match! Look, mine do too. Remember I told you that it would be purple. I see that you have Meggie on the other side over there. We’ll have to get together tomorrow at breakfast or by the pool and talk. We’ve been planning some fun stuff. Meggie and I like doing fun stuff. You know stuff that makes people laugh. We’ll talk about it later.

  “What was that about fun stuff that makes people laugh?” Daddy Brad had an eyebrow raised looking at Molly.

  “Uhm. Nothing. We’re just talking about fun stuff girls do, like playing games and toys and laughing. That’s all.”

  “Keep it that way. I want no trouble out of you girls on this trip. You better not be keeping anything from me.”

  “No, silly Daddy. We’re just talking.” She shook her head and the red in her hair shimmered under the miniature white lights and chandelier. She was very cute and had a button nose with freckles. She grabbed her daddy’s hand and bounced in her chair with excitement. She certainly was a fun person to be around.

  Meggie and Lilly were whispering and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Meggie’s daddy had his arm around the back of her chair, his fingers playing over the slope of her shoulder. Meggie had a beautiful scarlet gown and her daddy—a huge man about the size of Daddy Jace—had a black suit with a scarlet handkerchief in the pocket. They really were dazzling together.

  Lilly had a pretty pink gown on that looked amazing with her dark hair. Lilly was listening intently to Meggie talking, but was situated in such a way that her back rested on her daddy’s chest and the back of her head was resting on his shoulder. Daddy Tim had his arm wrapped around her shoulders and he had her successfully cocooned to him. He and Michael were talking about sports and seemed totally engrossed, but both of them appeared to be constantly stroking their spouses while they talked. Gabby noticed that Lilly was much smaller than her daddy, the bright blond of his hair a striking contrast to the jet black of her luxurious locks.

  Becca’s gown was black with a wide sash in fuchsia with a kick pleat in the skirt that was hot pink and showed when she walked. The fuchsia matched the streak in her dark hair perfectly. When her Daddy Bob wasn’t talking with his little girl, he was talking to Daddy Brad. Becca and her daddy seemed to get along very well. She saw Becca blush a couple times while she talked to Daddy Bob. Becca’s blush made her seem sweet, kind, and… happy. Yes, that was it. She seemed happy when she was talking with her daddy. It was nice to see that side of Becca; it wasn’t a side that the girls had seen from her before.

  As she was thinking this, Becca turned and glared her way as if to say “What’re you looking at?” Thankfully, Becca’s daddy, Bob, saw it and grabbed her chin pulling her to look at him. He didn’t look happy at all. Gabby saw his other hand go into the front of Becca’s gown pinching her nipple, hard. Becca jumped at the pinch. He kept his hand down the front of her dress in warning. Becca blushed with embarrassment trying to turn her head to see who’d witnessed this. She didn’t succeed, her daddy tightened his hold on her chin and didn’t let go. Gabby couldn’t hear everything that was said, but heard bits and pieces.

  “…know better… isn’t how we planned this… wasn’t the belt enough… do you need to wear a butt plug to remind you… spank you in front of your new friends… behave or else.” When he was done talking, he withdrew his hand. Becca nodded her head and curled her head under his chin with her eyes closed.

  “And that, little girl is what happens when you’re mean to other little girls on the ship. You’re humiliated and punished in front of them.” Daddy Jace’s voice startled her, and she looked into his piercing green eyes which had suddenly grown very serious.

  “I hope you’ve taken her punishment into account. We’re on a ship of daddies and little girls, public punishment will be common place on this vacation. It would be embarrassing, wouldn’t it?

  “Jace! You wouldn’t do that to me, would you?”

  “First off, unless we’re having sex, you’re not to call me Jace on this vacation.
I’m Daddy. Second, absolutely. If you misbehave publicly and do something to hurt another little girl—physically or verbally—you’ll be punished in front of that little girl and anyone else who’s in the room. It’s something to keep in mind, isn’t it?”

  She looked into his eyes. Was he freaking serious? He would actually spank her in front of other women and men. Jace never, ever, spanked unless she was bare. The thought of being spanked publicly sent her into panic, and yet, had her completely aroused. When she was bent over his lap or a chair, they’d see everything. Her pink pussy lips and puckered hole would be open for everyone to see and she wouldn’t be able to hide the way she reacted to spankings either—they’d see her juices on her sex and thighs. Jace loved to add humiliation and embarrassment to her punishments, this would be right up his alley. And hers too, maybe. She could feel her panties getting damp thinking about it and squeezed her thighs together, shifting to give her clit a little rub.

  “Mmmm, I see you’re excited about it too. I was hoping to give you a few swats on the deck—maybe in your bathing suit in front of everyone. And I’ll have to think on whether I’ll pull your bikini bottoms down or pull them up into the crevice of your bottom. I wonder which one would embarrass you more? I’ll have to think on this, since you seem just as aroused by the idea.”

  “Ja—Daddy!”

  “Good catch, girlie. I think you’re shocked by the idea, but I bet if I moved my hand under your gown right now and pushed your panties aside, I’d find that pussy just dripping for her daddy. Are you wet for me, Gabby Girl? Truth.”

  She looked at him—well glared was a better term—but didn’t answer.

  He took his right forefinger and tapped her cheek with it a few times and said “Nuh-uh, Gabby. With the topic at hand, I don’t think I’d be glaring and deciding to rebel. But, hey, that’s me. You rarely take the easy route when it comes to discipline. Are you wet for Daddy, sweetie?”

  She cleared her throat and looked around the table to see who might have been listening to their conversation, stalling for time. When she turned back to Jace, he was sitting with a crooked smirk waiting for her answer. “Yes, Daddy. I’m very wet.”

  “As expected. We’ll take care of that later, no worries.”

  * * *

  Lilly saw Amanda come in with Daddy Mark and they walked to their table. Amanda had a pretty white silk gown on that was in a mermaid style and showed off her curves, but Lilly wasn’t feeling kind toward her and scowled just looking at her. It was ridiculous how she reacted and Lilly was sitting on a tender bottom because of it. And, of course, that she was going to be humiliated at their table when she had to publicly apologize. Amanda needed to be told to suck it up and behave as far as she was concerned.

  Even though Lilly’s daddy kept his promise and got her another magic fairy wand while she was napping, the whole incident took the shine off her wand. It didn’t feel as pretty and magical as it had before she got spanked with it. It didn’t feel the same because it wasn’t the same. She had lost her first one and this was a replacement. Replacements were never as much fun. Ever.

  Lilly’s bottom still burned a little, but that was because her bottom didn’t get spanked very often. She didn’t like upsetting Daddy, and she really hated getting bad girl spankings. So getting a spanking on her first day of vacation still stuck in her craw. She narrowed her eyes, watching them sit down at their table. She just hated Amanda now; she’d never be friends with that girl.

  “Lilly, sweetie, you need to stop scowling,” Tim said. “I thought we discussed this enough today. Am I wrong? Do we need to have another discussion in the coat closet? Or do you think you can apologize and act like a perfect young lady tonight on your own?”

  “Tim, how do you expect me to act? She pissed me off. I got a spanking because of her! For something that a four year old wouldn’t have reacted to that dramatically. I have no tolerance for drama and that was total drama. She’s just ridiculous and now I’m paying for her stupidity.”

  She saw his eyes narrow and he turned his body to face her, leaning in close, his voice firm. “No. What you got spanked for was not respecting another’s space. If that’s unclear to you, even after your spanking, then maybe we need to revisit this issue. I thought I was clear that you were getting spanked for your actions and not her reaction. Was I unclear?”

  “No, you were clear. But if she had kept her mouth shut and just reacted like a normal person, you would have never known it happened. I got spanked because she screamed so loud.”

  “Again, we’re having a disconnect here. Invading her space is wrong whether she reacted or not. So am I to assume that you feel the problem is that you got caught?”

  Lilly could see where this was going and didn’t like it. If he felt he hadn’t made himself clear, her bottom would be sore again. She decided that she needed to back pedal and make this right before she ended up with another discussion.

  “No. I know that what I did was wrong and I’m sorry, Daddy. Really, I am. I promise. And my fanny still hurts and I’ll behave on this trip, I promise.”

  Her Daddy stared at her and she could see him thinking. She was hoping that he would relax and let her words slide this time. She really did hate bad girl spankings and one in a day was enough.

  “I think you’ve had enough today. We’ll know soon enough whether this lesson was learned and I think you know me well enough to know that I’m more than willing and able to reteach a lesson.”

  He then stood up and addressed the table. “If you’ll all excuse us. Lilly has to apologize to someone at another table. We’ll be back soon.”

  Lilly felt her face flush.

  Oh. My. God. He didn’t just do that.

  She wanted the floor to open up and swallow her. When she reluctantly looked up, everyone at the table was staring. She could feel stinging behind her nose and her eyes welled with tears at the embarrassment.

  As she stood, she felt Meggie grab her hand and squeeze it. She looked down and Meggie whispered up to her, “Daddies can be mean sometimes. Don’t worry, all of us have been there. We’ll have fun when you get back. Do what you have to do.”

  Lilly put her hand into her daddy’s hand outstretched before her. When they were holding hands, it always amazed her how much bigger his hand was than hers. It felt like her whole hand fit in the palm of his. He squeezed her hand lightly and smiled at her. He walked confidently toward the table with her tagging along behind him.

  When Daddy Tim got to the table Daddy Mark stood and they shook hands. Lilly felt like her heart was going to beat its way out of her chest and fall onto the table. Was it Lilly’s imagination or did Amanda have a smug smirk on her face? She saw Amanda sit up straighter and smile, looking at the other girls at the table with that look that said “Watch this, you’re in for a treat.” Lilly just wanted to slap her.

  “I believe my Lilly has something to say to Amanda, don’t you Lilly?”

  “Yes, Daddy.” She cleared her throat and felt eyes on her. How could he do this to her? How?

  “I’m sorry I invaded your space, Amanda. And I’m sorry that I smacked your bottom with my fairy princess wand.”

  She heard a couple of the girls snickering behind their hands. Amanda apparently left that part of the story out.

  “I was spanked for the invasion, and my daddy spanked me with my own fairy princess wand so I’d know how it felt. I hope you’ll accept my apology.”

  Before Lilly’s daddy could say anything, Daddy Mark said, “Oh, Lilly, what a beautiful apology. Amanda, what do you say to Lilly?”

  Amanda smiled and looked at Lilly. “Thank you, Lilly. I accept your apology.”

  “I’m sure you both can be good friends now that this has been handled. I’m sure we’ll see you again tonight and tomorrow at the pool.” Both the men shook hands, but as they did, Amanda stuck her tongue out and crossed her eyes at Lilly.

  Lilly ignored her and curled into her daddy as they walked back to the table. Her he
ad only came to the middle of his chest and she loved how she fit perfectly under his arm.

  He kissed the top of her head. “That was beautiful, Lilly Love. Such a good girl. You made me proud. And I want you to know that I saw what Amanda did and I appreciate that you didn’t react to her attitude. We’ll see about rewarding you later for that. I’m hoping that her daddy saw it too, so that he can give Amanda the appropriate… consequences.”

  “Thank you, Daddy.” By the time she finished saying that they were back at the table. Daddy Michael, in his deep, rumbly, stern voice said, “Well, how did the bad girl do? Did she apologize politely?”

  Before she could filter herself, she scowled at him and her lip stuck out. Daddy Tim, swatted her bottom hard.

  “Ow! Uhm… Sorry, Daddy Michael.” She turned and put her nose in the middle of Tim’s chest. God, would the embarrassment never ever end?

  “Sorry, little lady,” Michael said. “I was teasing and got you into trouble. It’s my turn to apologize. I promise I’ll make it up to you. I was only playing.”

  “She knows better than to make faces at people, especially a daddy,” Tim said, his voice a deep rumble in his chest. “And, yes, the ‘bad girl’ redeemed herself and apologized with perfection. Now, let’s relax and eat.”

  Tim sat down, but instead of letting Lilly sit in her own chair, he placed her on his lap and held her close. As he comfortably talked with everyone, he stroked her back and helped her relax again. It was only when they started bringing the soup out for everyone that Tim patted her bottom, and helped her move over to her chair to eat.

  Chapter Eight

  The French onion soup was amazing and everyone was totally engrossed in their food. Tim was talking over Becca to Bob about Human Resource issues, and business in general. Michael was talking to Gabby about her family business and the larger media graphics and advertising industries, so Meggie took this opportunity to ask Lilly about the whole situation with Amanda. Lilly told her what happened when they boarded the ship and the incident that was the cause of her sitting tenderly.
