Lash cleared his throat, and the women turned toward him.
“You look stunning,” he said.
Angel smiled. “So, you like?”
“Yeah, I do.”
Her cheeks went bright red.
“I wanted to make sure you’re all doing okay in here?” He stared at his woman and just couldn’t believe how fucking lucky he was.

Daisy was aware of Tabitha looking at her. She tried to ignore it, but as she washed the dishes from the night’s meal, it was getting tiresome.
“What?” Daisy asked.
“Wow, since when did I get that kind of attitude?”
She rolled her eyes and looked toward her friend. “I know you and you have no qualms about giving me the what for. So come on, out with it.”
“Anthony.”
“Anything but that.”
“Come on. I tell you everything.”
“Tabitha, you’ve been gone a long time already. You’ve got Nathan, Skye, and Jade. Also, Simon is back. Trust me, you don’t tell me everything.” She ran her cloth across the plate, wanting it to be the end of the conversation.
“I so do. Trust me, I tell you everything.”
Daisy turned to her friend. “Can we not do this, please?”
“Look, I get it. You and Anthony are complicated and shit, but this is me we’re talking about. I’m your best friend.”
Daisy sighed. “You are my best friend, which is why I can’t talk to you about this.”
“Wait, what?”
“Will you be staying all the way to New Year’s?” Daisy asked, trying to change the subject.
She didn’t want to talk about Anthony or everything that was going on, not that there was a whole lot going on.
“Don’t do that. You think after all of this time, I don’t see what you’re doing? We’ve got to talk about this because Anthony is thinking of joining the freaking Nomads, Daisy. You do know that.”
He’d told her today that all she had to do was say the word and he’d be gone.
“Yeah, I know.”
“And that doesn’t bother you? Come on, there is no way I believe that you don’t care. You have to care. This is Anthony we’re talking about, and I know you’re not blind to the fact he doesn’t need any help in not caring. The Nomads are fucking crazy.”
Daisy slammed her hands against the sink. “And maybe that’s where he needs to be.”
She was getting tired of having the finger pointed at her like this was her fault. It wasn’t.
Tabitha stopped.
“Yeah, Tabby, I know all about what he plans and that he— Trust me, if he needs to blow off steam, then the best place for everyone is him in the Nomads.”
