"the hell?" coleman scrunched up his nose. tom stared passed him. his brown eyes staring straight into hers. she looked more scared than coleman, it squeezed his heart. the moment they had their gazes locked ended when coleman swung his blade towards tom. sabrina hopped onto her feet and ran for another room. "get her," tom nodded to harrison. without hesitation harrison ran after her. "no you don't!" zach lunged for harrison but the boy swiftly dodged the drunk throw. "oi bastard." tom pointed the bat he held in zach's direction. "your fight is with me." tom said with bared teeth.

zach clicked his tongue and tried to regain his balance. his head was pounding from the forced sobriety. "do something!" mark shouted at him, only causing the pain in his head to throb more. with a low growl he turned his head upwards, "men! do your fucking jobs!" zach grunted and went to chase after sabrina. tom was faster though and had the bat pressed to his throat. zach's eyes flashed with panic. "don't bother." tom sneered just as his brothers entered the hotel room. both covered with splotches of red spots. "you really need to improve your families army brov." sam rolled his neck. "seriously, it was like taking on a bunch of toddlers." harry faked a yawn as he wiped his hands clean.

"you- what did you do!" zach tried to reach for the twins but the bat pressed deeper into his throat, choking him. "take yours eyes off me one more time." tom threatened. zach turned his shaky glare back to tom. he flinched when he saw how dark tom's eyes turned. he was livid. boiling up with rage just waiting for the split second zachory would look away. "grab that old fuck." tom ordered to his brothers. mark gasped and quickly hid the phone he was secretly using. "don't touch me! i'll kill you!" mark shouted. sam and harry mimicked his words before roughly pinning him to the floor together. "you touched my sister with those hoofs." harry whispered in a deadly tone into mark's ear. "be lucky we didn't slice your throat here and now pig." sam did the same in his other ear.

meanwhile in the room across from the four harrison was trying to smooth sabrina. she had connor pressed into her chest protectively and glared at harrison. "brina-" she stopped him by shouting over him. "don't call me that! how could you!" she screamed. the boy in her arms stared up at her confused and scared. being suddenly woken up in the middle of the night to shouting and loud bangs. "how else were we supposed to help you!" harrison shouted back. "not by bringing him here!" sabrina retorted. harrison ran a hand through his hair, frustration hitting it's peak. "he has the right to know. he's always had the right to know! he wants to help you brina! he wants to help connor!" haz pleaded. sabrina held connor tighter, her voice low and scared. "he'll just want connor to join the mafia. he'll want him to be his heir."

harrison stared at her. his heart wavering with what to do. shit, part of him even thought about running away right now with the two of them. but that was a selfish thought he had millions of times these past two years. with a frustrated sigh he stepped closer to her, getting upset on how she backed away from him. "tom's not going to do anything to ever upset you again. trust me on that." harrison's eyes smiled sweetly at her. sabrina trusted those eyes and that smile. but she couldn't get herself to trust in his words. tom's already disappointed her in the past, what's going to be different now? she opened her mouth to say something but the sound of smashing stopped her.

"tom," she breathed out. harrison smirked at the clear love she still had for his boss. "he'll kill zach if you don't stop him." harrison held out his arms. sabrina nodded gently and passed connor over to his uncle. the boy instantly clung to haz's body. "did all the loud noise bother your sleep?" harrison cooed. "why mommy yell?" connor's eyes watered. sabrina's words got caught in her throat, she never yelled at harrison like that in front of connor. of course he'd be upset. "mommy was just keeping your uncle in check yeah? i made mommy mad so i deserved it." harrison quickly covered it up with a smile. sabrina stared at him as he continued talking with connor in a soft voice. in the back of her mind she always did wonder what it would be like if connor's dad was harrison. but that would never happen, she loved tom, and deep down she knew she wanted this family with only tom.

a few minutes earlier..

tom stared down zach like an animal cornering it's prey. zach held his ground and didn't look away. that pissed tom off more. he shoved the bat into zach's throat to push him. zach gagged on the ground and rubbed his throat. "still obsessed with my wife?" zach taunted. "shut up." tom spoke before zach could finish. zach smiled lightly, slowly getting back up on his feet. "what? is your pour little heart still broken?" his words fueled toms anger. "she chose me mate, not you, me." zach snickered. "shut up!" tom shouted and slammed the tv with his bat. he threw the wooden weapon to the ground and tackeled zach to the floor.

his hands landed punch after punch to zach's face. "she's not your wife!" tom screamed. "she's not!" his words echoed through out the room. zach laughed as he caught tom's fist. he held up his other hand that had a ring on his finger. "i beg to differ." with that zach head butted tom and forced him off of him. tom's vision shook for a second and blood tricked down his nose. a wicked smiled played on his lips. "i cut that finger clean off." tom snatched the hand zach held up to proudly and broke his ring finger. zach grunted out a scream and tried to smack tom, but tom being the skilled man he was, he countered in a split second. zach was flung back by a hard kick to his stomach.

"i have one question for you." tom muttered wiping his nose. "i'm not telling you shit." zach spat out blood. tom knelt down and bored into zach's eyes. it was dead quiet for a few seconds before tom spoke again. zach's eyes flickered to the person who emerged from the bedroom then back to tom's hateful eyes. "did you touch sabrina." the words felt like acid coming off his lips, but he needed to know if he was going to kill zach now, or later. zach looked confused by the sudden question but only for a moment. he laughed aloud, blood lined his gums and teeth. "i'm her husband. what do you think?" zach mocked. he leaned forward, unafriad.

"i ravished her body entirety." tom lowered his head. the twins winced already knowing what was about to happen. zach just kept going though. "i'm sure you've seen that adorable freckled on her inner thigh right? the one right near her-" his words stopped by tom choke slamming him into the carpeted ground. the darkness in toms eyes only amplified with each filthy word spilling from zach's mouth. zach coughed up blood and smiled, "maybe that shitty little spawn is mine?" zach laughed as he spouted a lie. that was the last straw for tom. he rammed his forehead into zach's nose, breaking every bone instantly.

he twisted his hand that grasped his neck and dug his nails into his flesh. he slammed zach's unconscious body over his own and started to straddle him as he choked him. waiting for him to breathe his last breath. but that wouldn't happen. delicate arms wrapped around toms middle and made him freeze. his grip loosening on zach's throat, letting his unconcious body take back in needed oxygen.

"stop. stop." sabrina's mufflers cries were smothered into his back. his heart was pounding in his chest and his pupils dialated. the feeling of sabrina's body so close to his made him wonder if this was real. tom nervously and ever so lightly touched her fair skin, flinching when he actually felt her there. in a blink of an eye tom spun around and pulled sabrina into an embrace. his breathing was ragged and heavy. "s-sabrina?" he called out as he held her tighter. this wasn't a dream right? her arms wouldn't hold him back though. but the over whelming smell of tom made her almost lose her senses.

almost.
