"Beth," he said as he broke away from her.
His kitten growled at him and pounced on him in an almost feral attack. He lost all control then and began to ravish her in return. Daryl had waited a lot longer than four months for this. It had never been the right time for them. She had still been angry with him when she started her romance with Zach.
Glenn tried to talk to him when it became obvious to everyone that something was happening between Beth and Zach. "Dude, Beth is--"
"Don't," Daryl had warned him, and Glenn hadn't dared to say another word about it.
It hadn't been easy to see Beth with another man, but he knew that Zach was better for her than he was. They were both so young, and they were perfect for each other. Everyone thought so.
Maggie even let go of her grudge against Daryl when she saw that he wasn't going to interfere in Beth's new relationship. "You know it's for the best, right?"
The expression on Daryl's face made even gutsy, fearless Maggie shrink away from him.
He hadn't interfered, because Beth seemed happy with Zach. That was why he'd been shocked by her lack of emotion when he had to break the news to her that Zach was dead. She'd been so distant and unresponsive. He hadn't been able to read her the way he had in the past, and he had no idea what she was thinking.
Then she'd asked him if he was okay, and he'd told her that he was just tired of losing people. He'd wondered if he'd lost her in a different way. She had seemed completely unreachable to him at the time.
There was nothing distant about her now as she yanked his pants down and grasped his cock. "Do it now!"
Daryl was so far gone that he didn't even bother checking if she was wet. He ripped her panties off and thrust into her. They moved together in a hot mess of anger, frustration, and pent up passion as they fucked furiously. Beth dug her nails into his back with the intensity of her climax. Daryl had barely managed to hold back his own orgasm until she came.
Everything else was gone, and there was just the two of them. Things were far from okay, but Daryl knew one thing for sure. Now that he had Beth, he damn well wasn't going to lose her again.
