Cuffing The Law Book 2 in The Willowbrook Series

Chapter 22

Daisy

"He did what?" I watch as Lottie's cupid bow mouth makes a big O, her dark, curly hair is bouncing all over the place as if it has a life of her own as she springs up and down on the sofa in my lounge.

"I know, right? I can't believe it. I am still pinching myself."

"Who the fuck does that? Jeez-us, Girl that man has just stepped out of some romance book. And you and him are still just friends, are you sure about that?"

"That's the one." I say as I add some ice to our neat lemon Vodka's. Neither one of us like to spoil a good Vodka. It's nice and chilled, I'd sat it in the fridge for thirty minutes before Lottie came over.

As soon as I was back home, after I got dropped off I couldn't wait to message her. "I've got to go back to Deacon's at some point this evening to see the colt, feed him and give him some tender loving care. You can come with me."

"Let's reel back first Daisy. You're not getting out of the line of questioning that easily. He fucking bought you a colt for seven thousand dollars? That is insane, I mean INSANE."

She is very loud, I've never seen her quite so excitable. I am grinning from ear to ear. "Don't ask me what came over him. He said he wasn't interested in getting a colt that he needed more aged horses and then the colt got brought out and I swear I fell instantly in love with it."

"But who does that for just a friend? You know he likes you, likes you, right?"

"Sure, everyone likes me." I try to play it coy.

"Don't you try that on me. He seriously likes you, the kind of I want to fuck you, like you."

"Lottie." I screech as I hand her the glass shot glass with the one ice cube in it. She knocks it back and places it on the coaster on my sofa table. "Please don't say things like that. We're just friends."

"Just friends, horseshit. You get wet panties just thinking about that man. I bet he gets a boner looking at you. I bet, he jerks off in the shower with images of you in his mind." She starts to laugh. I knock my drink back and go back to the kitchen with her glass and refill them both.

"Just bring the bottle over, it's not like we're not going to get a bit tipsy tonight. We could have a few here then go to the Lazy Duke." She now stretches out of my small sofa with her legs hanging off the ends.

"No can do. I told you, I have to go over to Deacon's to see the colt."

"Has the colt got a name by any chance? Tell me everything about him. I bet he's so damn cute."

"The cutest. Here this is a picture." I hand her my mobile. "I took loads so scroll through them." She gasps and makes aww noises and generally is taken with the colt as I am. "I called him Dreamer."

"Yeah, that suits him. He looks so dreamy. Fuck, though Daisy. I cannot believe that Marshal Deacon went and bought you a damn colt just because you were fawning over it. So, is there some payback?" She chuckles. I smack her on her bare legs playfully.

"No, there is no payback."

"Ah, but I bet you'd love to pay him back with that mouth of yours."

"Lottie, behave. Honestly, so I like him. But that doesn't change a thing, We're good friends. He sees me as Logan's kid sister, the one with braces and pigtails who just hung around with them all the time. Besides, he has that lady friend over in Copper Town. What's her name?" I furrow my brow trying to think of her name. Lottie tops us up again, I'm on my third shot. I need to take it easy if I'm to get to Deacon's. Er, how am I going to get there. I won't be able to drive. Drat. I'll have to call Logan. No way I'm calling Deacon to come fetch me.

Being close to that man makes my panties wetter than standing in a rainstorm. Bonnie comes and jumps up on my lap. I fuss her ears. "Molly is her name." Lottie offers. "He's not serious about her, daresay she'd like him to be, but you know he only goes there when he you know, needs to express himself." She is now giggling. Someone has got to stay off the shots.

"Lottie, I do have to get to Deacon's later. You want a pizza or something before I go? Or, do you want to eat and then come with me? I'll buzz Logan see if he can pick us up. We've had three shots and can't drive."

"Pizza sounds good. And yes, I have to come and see Dreamer and Deacon. I mean that man is pure sex on legs."

"Honestly. You're not helping."

"I know I'd like to help myself to him. You're one lucky lady for him to have the hots for you like he has. So, when are you going to give into him and have wild sex with the man?"

I clench my thighs, just thinking about Deacon's hard cock between my thighs sends a shiver up and down my spine. "Have you got goosebumps? You have. Oh. My. God. Daisy."

"Lottie stop it now. Right, no more Vodka for you." I place Bonnie on my bestie's stomach so I can go fix us a pizza and put it in the oven. I make sure I take the Vodka bottle with me.

My phone vibrates. "Hey, Girl it's your boyfriend calling."

"I don't have a boyfriend."

"You know who I mean."

"Deacon?"

"The one and only."

I smooth my hair down, like he can see me through a mobile and feel ridiculous for doing so. Lottie hands me the phone and goes back to stroking Bonnie who is lapping up the attention.

"Hey, Deacon."

"Did you still want to come over this evening to see, Dreamer? Only, I can feed him, put a blanket on him. He's settled in well in his stable. Mitzi and Night have nosed with him. No issues. All good this end."

"I was thinking to come over, I've just got Lottie with me. Can I bring her?"

"Sure, no problem. It's okay if you don't want to. I can take care of him."

"No way, I want to spend time with him. I've just had a couple of shots so I'm going to ask Logan to come pick me up."

"I can come get you. No problems and Lottie. I'll drive you both back afterward."

"Hold on a second, Deacon whilst I check with Lottie."

I hold my mobile to my chest. "Lottie, Deacon can come get us. You still want to come?"

I watch as she cocks her head to one side, and has this weird look on her face. "You know what, I've got my nails to paint instead this evening. I tell you what. You let him come pick you up and you go over on your own."

"What? Why? I thought you wanted to see Dreamer."

"Er, no. I'll be gooseberry in the middle. Besides you never know what may come of it. You two, alone, near the horses, stables, hay." She giggles and wriggles her eyebrows. I launch one of my easy pillows at her from the chair next to me and stick my tongue out at her. But, she does have a point. I mean, something could happen, right?

"Hey Deacon. Sorry to keep you waiting like that. You can come get me." We hang up and I am not going to lie, I am already over heating thinking about being close to that man again with his broad shoulders, popping biceps and God only knows what's between his legs.
