Kink: Daddy kink, plush play, referenced off-screen age play

What a sweet and adorable novella!

Chara Croft's writing in this is amazing as usual. I didn't see any errors or issues, but beyond that, I loved how you could tell the difference between each POV, as Croft always has this unique way of tapping into the voices of her characters through language choices and the way their thoughts come onto page.

Ollie and Yves were so sweet together. I hated Grant and the way he treated Ollie, so I am very happy that Yves found him and helped him out. We get a kink awakening here with Ollie being new to being a little, while Yves is an experienced daddy. Unfortunately there is no on-page ageplay or exploration of the non-sexual little side, but we do get plenty of sweet heat with this. The bedroom scenes were hot, especially with the plushplay. I immediately need a bonus scene with the giant teddy bear mentioned.

If you want to read a touching story with hurt/comfort, a Daddy taking care of a fragile boy who deserves the world, I highly recommend this story within the anthology!
