“There is always club stuff.We’re going on another run in three days.”

“Do you know why?”Daisy asked.

Anthony looked at her.There was rarely a secret between them.They both knew what the club did now, the dangers they took in trying to protect everyone.

“There’s a shipment of ten girls.We’ve got the location.Billionaires have everything covered.Dad’s taking care of the rest.”

Daisy nodded and turned back to look at the lake.“I hate they have to go through that.”

“Me too.”

“Are you sure you care?”

“I care.”

Daisy chuckled.“This, coming from a guy who doesn’t claim to care about anyone or anything.”She let out a tut.“You surprise me.”

He moved close and she surprised him by letting out a sigh, and then slowly she started to pull her summer dress up and over her head.

Anthony paused and admired the curve of her back.She wore a bra and a pair of panties, and he felt his cock start to harden.

Daisy glanced over her shoulder at him, and there was that sweet innocent smile that drove him wild.“Do you see something you like?”

“You know I do.”

Again, another giggle.

She reached behind her, releasing the catch of her bra.No one was around, and it was warm out.The last rays of sunlight shone over them, and it was getting impossibly tight around his cock.

He wanted her.That was never going to change.

She wriggled out of her panties and then stepped into the water.She continued to make her way into the lake, and then once she was covered by the water, she turned toward him.

“It’s quite warm,” she said.

He moved closer to the edge of the lake.“You’re a temptation, you know that, right?”

“I didn’t say you couldn’t come in and join me, but it does mean you’ll have to get naked while you do it.”

There was a soft head tilt to the side.

There was no way he could deny her anything.Sharing the lake with her, naked, he loved when they were like this.They rarely got this opportunity.Everyone around expected them to be serious, to keep their shit together, and he fucking hated it.

At least while everyone was distracted and believed he and Daisy were always doing the right thing, they were left alone, which was exactly what he wanted.He didn’t want people meddling in his business and the truth was, he liked that he and Daisy could justbe.At least Simon and Tabitha had allowed that.

He removed his leather cut, followed by his shirt.Within seconds he removed his pants, boxers, and was able to step into the warm water.They loved to come to the lake, and the weather didn’t stop them.There were a few times they stepped into the lake, and they had both screamed as it was so cold.Daisy didn’t like the cold, she’d often wrap her body around him, and it was up to him to protect her.

She didn’t move away, and he advanced toward her.He loved when she was playful.

The moment he was within touching distance, she pulled away with a giggle.Daisy made him chase her, but she was no match for him.Not when he knew what he wanted.

Eventually, he caught her, pulling her into his arms and taking possession of her lips.He was addicted to her mouth, to her kisses, to her lips, to everything.

There was a time growing up, where his father had said his feelings would change for this woman, and he’d want to go out, sow his wild oats.He would see there were a lot of other fish in the sea.Anthony hadn’t believed it.And it never happened.There were no other fish for him.Daisy was his catch of the day, of the week, of the year, of his life.They worked.People didn’t get it, and he didn’t give a fuck.

His feelings for her had only gotten deeper, more intense, and he didn’t want to be without her for a second.

“You caught me,” Daisy said.
