The elevator slowed then, and I quickly forced my body to work just so I could continue my bold persona until I got to my office.
We exited the elevator and five men bowed in greeting before they swiftly inspected the elevator to ensure there were no bombs or other hurtful devices hidden in the mirrored walls that were outlined in gold.
I knew where to go because we’d gone through a tour before the fiasco, but now all the furniture, carpet, and paintings were up to make the second top floor a beauty to anyone’s eyes. The top floor would be the penthouse while a good chunk of the middle portion of the hundred-floor building would be an array of suites that would house the Omegas who needed a secure place to live while assisting us in the various areas of services.
When we reached the massive doors, I smirked at the newly painted door of pink with flakes of gold. I’d previously requested it to enhance the overall look that I wished would be a design similar to the hardware of Versace merchandise, but the materials weren’t all in. I had a strong hunch Dimitris had another talk with the designer in charge.
That made me super happy.
I turned my attention to the three men in tow, looking specifically at Milo.
“Milo? Do you mind going back down and checking if there are any contracts at the front desk? Our most serious competitors should be faxing their offers in writing. I’d like to secure our top five sponsored companies by 3 PM. Can you handle that?”
I really wasn’t sure if he could, but his confident grin gave me a bit of peace of mind as he declared, “Easy. I’ll get that gathered. It’ll most likely take five or ten minutes depending on how many contracts are being sent. I believe the blueprints of the building design said there would be six fax machines and four printers, so I’ll go confirm if that’s true.”
“Thank you,” I whispered. He leaned over to kiss me on the cheek again and headed back down the hall. That left me with the brothers, and one look at Onyx’s face made my eyes roll.
“I need you to make a hit on at least three of those men in the crowd,” I reasoned as my gaze grew serious. “Viktor and Neo may be on it, but they’ll have to do it discreetly which means they can’t take on multiple targets at once.”
I was purposely speaking a tad slower so he’d sense my urgency on this. We made a bold fucking move being public about everything, so I didn’t want an hour to pass without one causality.
Three would be delightful.
“I want them trembling, Onyx,” I stressed and reached out to stroke his chin.“Help me make them beg.”
His eyes dilated and his nose flared at my request before he huffed and slammed his lips against mine in a heated kiss.
“If he dares to fuck you in that office before I do, I’m murdering him,” Onyx growled against my lips before tugging my bottom lip.
“Alright,” I purred in reply. “I approve of that.”
“I feel like you’ve both forgotten I’m right here.” Loki sighed. “But please, carry on.”
That made me giggle while Onyx gave him a side glare. “Better protect her.”
“It was my job to do that, but I got kidnapped, so…” Loki shrugged as if the comment weren’t as heavy as it felt. “But fear not. I’ve been tortured enough to be the perfect shield in the line of fire.”
That actually made Onyx frown as he stared into his brother’s eyes.
He then rose and took a step to face Loki, who was back to his original height. Even the slight difference in stature didn’t dim Onyx’s bold stance.
“In this pack, you ain’t just some shield that’s tossed in the crossfire,” he declared with a firm voice, his eyes never leaving Loki’s. “I said to protect her, not get yourself killed. What justice would that deliver you?”
Loki didn’t say a thing in response.
“When she’s done speaking with you, get your head out of the negative gutter and make sure you get her coffee before she crashes.”
“I’m not going to crash,” I huffed but the mere thought of coffee was going to make me drool.
Onyx was already looking over his shoulder at me and catching my hopeful expression.
“Right,” he huffed and returned his attention to Loki. “Make sure it’s extra sweet. Just like my Sugar.”
Then he walked into a portal of darkness which was the first time in a long while that I’d seen him travel that way.
That left us alone in silence before I reached out to lightly wrap my hand around his. Tingles jolted through the both of us, causing us to stare into each other eyes for a heated moment before we somehow managed to smile.
“Let’s go inside?” I offered.
