I flinch at the stern reminder. I haven’t touched my nipples since we arrived on Eleadia, but I will admit they are tingling from the little electric rod Chadka touched them with. I kind of want to touch them.
I’m so focused on the colorful toy that I don’t realize Papi didn’t take me straight home. When the stroller stops, I look up to find that we’re on the front porch of a house I don’t know.
Papi unbuckles me and takes my pacifier.
“Where are we, Papi?”
“Ekert and Sophie’s house. The jeweler and his Little girl.”
I panic.
Papi sets my stress toy to the side and lifts me into his arms. “We’re just going to look, Baby girl. I promise.” He knocks on the door.
The man who opens it is gigantic like every man I’ve seen on Eleadia. The woman at his side is about my size and age with blond pigtails and pale skin.
Ekert holds out a hand to shake Papi’s. “Tekfan, so good to see you.” He strokes my foot next. “And you must be Janelle.”
Papi gives me a squeeze. “Manners, Baby girl.”
“Yes, Sir,” I whisper.
Ekert steps back, keeping a hand on his Little girl’s shoulder. “Come on in.”
After we’re inside, Papi squats down again so I’m resting on his thigh at eye level with Sophie. “Janelle, this is Sophie.”
I have both arms around his neck, holding so tightly that my muscles hurt.
Sophie smiles at me. “I love your hair. It’s so pretty.”
I lick my lips. She seems nice. I can’t be mean to her. “Thank you. Yours is pretty, too.” It’s so blond, it’s almost white.
Sophie rocks on her feet, which draws attention to the hoops in her nipples as they sway and capture the light. “Do you want to come into the shop and see all the stones? I picked outsome pretty ones for you. I think your Papi was right. I bet the cinnabar will look perfect against your skin.”
I bite into my bottom lip. I’m so nervous. It’s probably best that Papi didn’t tell me we were stopping here beforehand. I would have fretted.
Papi pulls on one of my pigtails, causing me to tip my head back. “What do you think?”
“Okay.”
He stands me on my feet and takes my hand.
I wish he would pick me up, but I lean into him as we follow Ekert and Sophie through a door. Sophie skips. She seems to have a cheery disposition.
I’m surprised to find we’ve stepped into what looks exactly like a jewelry store on Earth. The only difference is there are far more stones than I’ve ever seen before.
One of the display counters is open, and Papi swoops me back up to settle me against his hip as we approach.
Ekert lifts Sophie off the floor and sits her on her diapered bottom on top of the counter. He keeps one hand tight on her thigh as though she might fall if he doesn’t secure her. He turns toward me. “I understand you haven’t really seen what nipple piercings look like yet.”
I shake my head. I’ve seen a few girls from a distance, but none up close. Even at the doctor’s office, no one was in the waiting room when we arrived or when we left.
Ekert turns toward Sophie. “Clasp your hands behind you and pull your shoulders back, Baby girl.”
Sophie instantly obeys her Papi, the movement causing her breasts to thrust forward.
As I watch Sophie submit so readily, my pussy pulses, and I clench my thighs around Papi’s waist when I lower my gaze to her nipples.
Ekert cups one of her breasts in his hand, gripping the tissue with his fingers a few inches from her nipple.
