Maddox was chasing after Dayson full speed while cursing Dayson who seemed to have fins attached to his feet.
Maddox really wanted to get his hands on Dayson and release his frustration, but the moment Dayson stopped, Maddox paused and eyed Dayson cautiously.
Dayson was never the one to give up on anything, and this looked like a trap and not surrender. How can Maddox allow himself to be outsmarted again?
Maddox was confident that Dayson stopping on his own, just like that, meant nothing good.
“Why did you stop?”, Maddox asked suspiciously.
“We need to talk.”, Dayson said.
Maddox increased his vigilance. Did he already step into a trap? “About?”
“You and Tanya.”
Maddox’s lips twitched. “Should I believe that you give a shit about me after you left me there to make an ass of myself in front of my mate?”
Dayson shrugged. “Think what you want, but the reality is that you need me if you want to get anywhere.”
Maddox couldn’t deny the obvious. He knew that Tatiana was not mellowing down, and Maddox had no idea how to woo a woman. No matter what he does, the likelihood was that he will make it worse, and worse than his current situation would be catastrophic.
“Say what’s on your mind.”, Maddox grumbled while eyeing the calm lake all around them. Are there warriors surrounding him underwater?
“You need privacy.”
Maddox snorted. “On this beach?” Everyone could see that Tanya would rather spend time with Kalina and girls than with Maddox.
“Not on this beach but” Dayson turned his head to the side and pointed in a certain direction. “You should go there.”
That was the spot where Keith took Talia during Summer Solstice.
Maddox was not sure if Dayson was setting him up again, but he was desperate for a solution to his situation with Tatiana. He could always start a brawl later.
“Where?”
Dayson swam closer to Maddox and explained, “There do you see those rocks?”
It took Maddox some time to pinpoint the location. “And how should I get Tanya there?”
“That’s up to you.”, Dayson said. “Don’t look at me like I just cursed your whole family. Tanya is obviously not rejecting you which means she is waiting for your move. I will ask Omegas to prepare some snacks and drinks for you to carry, and you invite Tanya for a walk.”
“Do you think she will accept?”
Dayson was not sure if Tatiana will accept, but he knew that “If you stay in the group, you will make zero progress. You need to talk to her openly, and the audience will prohibit you from doing that”
And just like that, Maddox forgot about his previous grudge against Dayson and was set on inviting Tatiana to join him for a walk.
…
By the time Maddox and Dayson decided to return to the beach, the canopy was set up.
Girls finished their game with the ball and guys joined them in the water.
Maya, Paul, Nate, Greg, Tyler, and Jaeden were competing who can hold their breath underwater longer, and Axel was watching them to make sure no one cheated. Axel wanted to compete also, but others said how his Alpha bloodline would give him an unfair advantage, so he accepted to be the referee.
Mindy and Tatiana went swimming at a relaxed pace, not straying too far from the shore. The two of them chatted about fashion and the latest happenings in the world of celebrities and the mood was good.
Tony was playing with Kalina. They were splashing each other, and Tony would occasionally jump on Kalina to pull her underwater where he would sneak a few kisses.
Talia was floating on her back with her arms and legs stretched to make a giant letter X. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the murmurs that drifted her way from all directions. Human voices, laughter, water splashing, birds chirping… Somehow, it was harmonious, and she was relishing the fact that all this was happening around her and she was part of it.
Talia came to the beach, played with a ball in the water, there was food and friends and good mood and of course, there was Dayson. It was perfect.
A splashing sound came close to her right and Talia was startled to see Dayson’s head emerging from the water.
“Did I scare you?”, Dayson asked with a boyish grin that made her heart skip a beat.
He wanted to grab her from below, but he changed his mind at the last minute.
“A little bit.”, Talia admitted and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Dayson loved that Talia approached him for this small intimacy on her own. His kitten was getting used to the closeness and she didn’t care that many eyes from the beach were on them.
“What was that with you and Max?”, Talia asked. She saw Dayson storming into the water and Maddox jumping after him energetically.
Dayson shrugged, indicating that it’s not a big deal. “We were just playing.”
He had no intention of admitting that he was messing with Maddox and got caught because he had a strong feeling Talia won’t approve of it.
Dayson observed Talia who was in the water with him, with her hands around his neck. She was beautiful.
He nudged Talia’s nose with his. “Did you miss me?”
“Yes.”, she admitted. She always missed him, whenever he was not in touching distance.
Dayson’s gaze fell on her lips that were slightly parted, obviously waiting for a kiss, and based on Talia’s emotions, he knew that she wanted more than a kiss.
The pressure in his groin area was maddening. Just the thought of Talia wanting him was enough to arouse him, and to make things worse, she was right there, in his t-shirt (and a red bikini under it), sticking to him closely.
If this was not a packed beach, he would remove the pesky swimwear and have his way with her right there in the water.
OK. Not exactly there because he would need some leverage for his feet to steady himself, but definitely somewhere nearby.
Dayson always had a high libido, but since he met Talia, things were several folds worse. He had two states, aroused and deep inside Talia. There was no third option.
He thought how it was adorable that Talia was completely oblivious to how much he wanted her.
“Kitten”, Dayson called in a strained voice. “I know a good spot not far from here. Do you want to see?”
How can Talia not know that he was talking about a spot where they can indulge in carnal pleasures?
Yes, yes, YES! “We have guests. Maybe some other time.”
Dayson frowned in disapproval. His hand landed low on her back, and he pulled her toward him until her crotch area pressed against his erection.
“Do you feel this, kitten?”
