Jeremy manoeuvred himself so that he was standing just a metre away from Steve and smirked at him 'Why don't you say whatever it is that you came to say so that I can kick you out of my office and get on with the rest of my day. We don't really roll the red carpet out for Captain America here'

Steve's nostrils flared as he stared at the low life in front of him. This man did nothing but cause pain and suffering but yet somehow always managed to land back on his feet and that infuriated him. With his teeth clenched he spoke 'We had a deal. You were never going to go near Willow or have contact with her as long as we didn't contest her fathers will. You're breaking that contract asshole'

'Wow. What a mouth you have on you there Cap. But you're right. We did have a deal and you guys didn't contest the Will which meant that I got to keep all of this. However, after Willow lost her memory and came here to seek me out, I had my lawyers look over a few things'

Jeremy started to pace slowly around Steve, maintaining eye intact with him the whole time. Steve could feel his frustrations bubbling up, this guy was starting to get under his skin and he knew it, circling around like a bird would circle around it's prey 'Well spit it out Jeremy..... I don't have all day. What exactly did your lawyers tell you?'

'They looked over the contract and although it was quite clear that I couldn't initiate contact with Willow, there was nothing written into the contract in regards to her seeking me out'

Steve started to feel his heart hammering in his chest  as the penny was starting to drop 'You're going to continue seeing her aren't you?'

Stopping right in front of Steve he smirked 'I have no intention of stopping her from coming to me. You guys never banked on her wanting to see me again so you never had it written in the contract. And now look where we are. It looks like I might be able to have all my possessions back with me'

'She is not a possession for gods sake. She is a human being with feelings and I'll be damned if I let you mess with her again'

'Here's the thing Captain.... it's not down to you. Unfortunately for you, if you speak about what happened, you and the rest of your friends would be in breach of your section of the contract and that would mean I could throw all your asses in jail.'

'You really are a piece of work aren't you' Steve sneered at him 'You deserve to burn in hell for what you've put that poor girl through. The best thing she ever did was to leave your sorry ass and marry my best friend'

Jeremy never liked to show his emotions but these Avengers had a way of getting under his skin. Breathing deeply, whilst clenching his hands behind his back was all he could do to try and hide it but when he saw Steve smirk, he knew his game was up and he'd been rumbled. I guess a super soldier really could detect just about anything.

Knowing he was starting to get the upper hand in this situation, Steve continued 'How much?'

Confused with the question, Jeremy looked quizzically at Steve 'How much what?'

'How much money will it take for you to bugger off complete this time. And I mean clear out of this city, moving far away from Willow and actually allowing her to get her life back. It's always about money with you so I'll ask you again.. how much?'

Laughing comically at what he felt to be an absurd question, he squared up to Steve 'You really think that I need money. Look around Captain, I have money seeping out of every corner of this building. I have no need for money'

'Then what do you want?'

'I want Willow by my side. The only negative from our previous arrangement was having to give her up. She would be the perfect trophy wife. With her by my side, I'll be the talk of the town' Jeremy paused to pour himself a tumbler of whiskey, turning to offer Steve a drink which just resulted in an intense glare 'I want her to divorce that asshole who stole what was mine and marry me and you are going to help make that happen'

Getting agitated with the situation, Steve grabbed Jeremy but the collar and slammed him up against the wall 'I will never help vermin like you and I will make sure she doesn't even look in your direction'

Not perturbed at all by having a super soldier in his face, he pushed his luck further 'Tell me.... does Bucky know that you're in love with his wife'

Steve pulled back slightly 'You have no idea what you're talking about and your pathetic little games won't work with me'

'I'm the pathetic one. Because from where I'm stood, you're the one who glances at Willow when you think no one is looking, how you follow her around like a lovesick puppy under the guise of being one of her best friends but deep down you would love nothing more than to bury yourself in her. Isn't that right Cap'

Pulling Jeremy's collar tighter he spat out 'You have no idea what you're fucking talking about'

'Shame because she really has a sinful mouth. Great at being a submissive too, even if I did have to break her in with a few punches now and again. Get her to marry me and I'll let you fuck her whenever you want for a price'

Steve punched him so hard, Jeremy flew back into the wall 'What goes around comes around asshole and I will be there waiting for your downfall. Stay away from her if you know what's good for you'

Jeremy wiped the blood from his lip, watching Steve retreat back out to the elevators. It looks like taking these Avengers out was going to be easier than he thought
