daddy issues? more like daddy perks

i've always had this thing for being a daddy figure, you know, the whole alpha male vibe and taking care of someone. i work in retail, kinda bland job but it pays the bills. met my little last year, she's in her twenties and really into the dynamic. we've been doing it ever since, keeping it super secret and all online at first. then one day, after a few months, she asked if i could come over for her birthday weekend. ofc i said yes, excited as hell. but also nervous b/c i've never done anything with anyone in person before. we met up, had dinner, talked for hours. everything was great and it felt so real, us being together like this. then she asked me to spank her as a gift, to remind her of how much i take care of her and set boundaries. thought about saying no b/c i'm still getting used to all the in-person stuff but... couldn't resist. we went back to her place and everything kinda happened naturally from there. was so nervous about it at first though, worried about going too far or anything. but after a while, realized she trusts me completely with this and that's an amazing feeling. also makes things more exciting, knowing how much i mean to her in this role. still processing everything and not sure what the future holds but... i'm definitely glad we took that step together.
