They had been each other’s firsts, and Daisy knew there would never be anyone else like Anthony.
“I want us to come together,” he said.
He took hold of her hands, locking their fingers tight. Their first time had been incredible and embarrassing, fast and yet slow. It was everything she could have wanted. There had been pain, but Anthony had held her throughout. He had always been there for her, loving her. And she loved him.
He kissed her again, and she felt him thrusting in and out of her, filling her.
This was real to her. This is what she wanted more than anything. Anthony made love to her, drawing her pleasure higher and higher, and when it came to the point where he wouldn’t be able to stop, he started teasing her clit.
He let her hand go, reached between their bodies, and started to tease her pussy, flicking her clit, bringing her closer to the peak.
“Please, Daisy, come back to me.”
There was that sound again, and then all too soon, Daisy was back at the beach. She remembered that day well. They spent the whole day making love, just being with each other, away from everyone and everything. They had made a mistake that day, though, because they hadn’t used condoms every time.
It took a month and a couple of tests to confirm that she was not pregnant.

“What the ever-loving fuck did you do?”
Anthony looked up as Tabitha, after two days, finally turned up. He was in the chair, once again beside Daisy’s bed, and there was still no change.
Tabitha looked angry as fuck, and hot on her heels was Simon, of course. This meant there was a chance Devil and Lexie were in town, or some of the Chaos crew were. He didn’t give a fuck.
Anthony ignored her and continued holding Daisy’s hand. He had been talking to her about one of his favorite memories, the time when everyone had been so focused on the shit going down. He and Daisy had stolen a day where they could be together. They had made love, and just had fun. For a short time, they had forgotten about their friend’s pain, or the shit the club was dealing with. They just had each other.
“Are you even fucking listening to me?” Tabitha asked.
He turned to look at her. “What do you want?” he asked.
She stormed over to him, looked at Daisy, and then slapped him hard across the face. Simon didn’t react, but as she went for a second go, Anthony had no choice but to stop her. He grabbed her hand, and then he stood. He had to let go of Daisy’s hand.
Tabitha let out a cry.
Simon stepped closer.
“I suggest you stay where you are right now,” Anthony said. “I will not hurt your woman, but she must keep herself calm.”
“Calm? Look at her. Look at Daisy. Look what you did.”
“First of all, this is none of your business,” Anthony said. “Second, I’ve been looking at her for the last two days, and you finally decide to turn up now.”
Tabitha glared at him. “I’m in Piston County—”
“I don’t give a fuck where you are. You and I both know if you were in this position, Daisy would be there. Shit, Daisy would be there for you if you needed a sounding board, and ice cream.” He glanced back at Daisy. “You don’t get to know why she is here.”
“You took on the Monster Dogs. How could you have been so fucking stupid?” Tabitha growled at him.
He glared at her. “I suggest you be careful.”
“Or what, you’re going to put me in the hospital? I thought you loved Daisy. I thought you would do anything—”
Anthony reacted and wrapped his fingers around Tabitha’s throat. Simon went to take a step toward him and held his hand up.
“Don’t you ever fucking question how I feel for that woman, do you understand me? Right now, you should be grateful for Daisy, because if you were not her best friend, you would be dead, and so would your husband. I wouldn’t give a fuck about leaving your kids without parents. Daisy is everything to me, and you are nothing. You left the club, Tabitha. You made your choices, and you do not get to come in here and throw accusations around. You left her, remember. You followed your heart, and you didn’t look back. Daisy was nothing more than an afterthought.”
“What is going on here?” Whizz asked, stepping into the room.
Anthony had the urge to tighten his hand around Tabitha’s throat. It would be easy to do, and then if Daisy was ... gone, someone would be there for her.
Stop it.
Daisy would not forgive you.
She is not dead.
She is going to kick your fucking ass.
Let her friend go.
Tabitha didn’t move, she didn’t even wriggle. Anthony let go of her throat, and without another word turned to his woman, his soul mate.
