Tommy

“It's ok.” I paused as Briella hesitated in my doorway. Our arms were outstretched between us. If she thought I was going to let go of her hand, she had another thing coming. Glancing at her, I was greeted with a look of terror on her face.

“Briella, trust me, no one out there is going to hurt you.” They wouldn't have dared before knowing that Leviathan had some plan for her, and they doubly wouldn't now.

Briella was mine. And they would be able to smell me on her. I had made sure of that when I had massaged my cum into her skin. The moment we stepped into any room they would be able to scent me on her.

Hell, they might already know.

I could smell me, even after her shower. So they would be able to as well.

And I couldn't bring myself to feel bad about that. Of course, it meant that it would get back to Leviathan quicker than I had planned, but he needed to know I was claiming her.

Consequences be damned. Briella was mine.

I hadn't been lying when I had told her that one night was not going to be enough, that if I fucked her then she would belong to me. I had touched her, felt her body tremble around me.

There was no going back for either of us.

“I should just stay here and...” She faltered, tugging on my hand. I didn't give an inch. I understood her reluctance, but I wasn't going to let her hide away either.

“It's just breakfast, Briella, and then we can come back to my room.” I stepped into her space, pulling her flush against my body. “Just breakfast.”

“I look ridiculous,” she countered, yanking the shirt down over her legs. I hated the fact that we were about to go out there where everyone got to see her shapely legs, but it wasn't because she looked ridiculous. Ridiculously hot maybe.

I was going to have a hard time not beating in the face of anyone who dared to look at her.

“You look beautiful.” After pressing my lips to hers, I took a step backwards, taking her with me, leading her further from the room before she could even realise. “No one is going to pay you attention,” I said, finally pulling away but keeping my arms tight around her waist.

That was a lie, she would get plenty of attention, but I was going to keep it to a minimum.

“Just breakfast?”

“Yes.” Entwining our fingers, I pulled her after me through the wide corridor and into the main common room before she could stop me. I tried to be casual about it, but the moment she stepped into the room, it was like all eyes turned towards us.

The silence stretched about us so thick, you could have cut it with a knife.

“Tommy,” she whispered, half hiding behind my wide back.

“If you assholes have stared enough, can you get back to your breakfast?” The voice was a growl as Raze came up to us. His smile widened as he turned to the room. “She’s just a girl, it’s nothing you’ve not seen before.”

“Never seen a woman wearing the Prez’s clothes and holding his hand before though,” someone muttered, and someone else laughed. I turned my eyes in their direction and silence fell.

“Briella is my guest and you will show her some respect whilst she is here.” My voice was icy. I had expected them to have questions. But I had thought, well maybe hoped, that they would have been more subtle about it.

I should have known better.

Raze stepped closer, his nostrils flaring and the smile he wore slipped. His eyes darted towards my face.

“What the fuck?” he muttered before he could catch himself.

I knew what he had been about to ask and I shook my head.

He had every right to be pissed off with me after last night's conversation, but it wasn't the time to get into a screaming match about it.

Briella shrank back at his tone and I pulled her into my side.

“Now is not the time, Raze.”
