Unscentable

Chapter 42 - Unscentable

Bradley POV

He had still been up in the hotel suite last night when Eddie had strolled out his room, headed for the door to leave the room. It was nearly 2300 “Where are you going?” Brad asked the man, though by the look on his face, smiling at himself, Bradley was certain the man was off to see Izzy.

“I’m going to sleep in Izzy’s bed.” He’d comment casually as he’d headed for the door.

“Eddie...no sex, my son is down there.”

Heard Eddie snort “Yes Bradley.”

Didn’t like the tone, it implied he wasn’t going to abide. “I mean it Edward, this hotel is not sound proofed like your room back at the Pack would be.”

“We’ll be quiet.” He opened the door to leave.

“Edward.” Bradley snapped at him, “I bloody mean it. If Piper tells me you did, and she will hear regardless of how quiet you think you are. I will order you to stay in this room for the rest of the trip and then…” was silent to make his point for 15 seconds “I will refuse to let Izzy come here at all.”

That got the man's undivided attention, he was now frowning right at Bradley from that doorway, clearly unhappy with his words. Bradley stared right at him, he did mean it. He would damned well Alpha Order him if he had to. “Is Piper aware and okay with you sleeping in her hotel room?”

“I don’t know, but it is Izzy’s room too.”

“If she is unhappy about it. You will leave, do you understand me?”

“Yes Bradley.” Eddie nodded, looked very unhappy about it but acknowledged it.

Bradley didn’t much like it himself. He couldn’t even mind-link to Piper to warn her or see if she was okay with it. Couldn’t even call her. For that matter, didn’t have her private number either. She could well be asleep for all he knew, and know nothing about Eddie going down there to sleep in Izzy’s bed.

Gave it a full 15 minutes, nil complaint and the man did not return, either must be alright with Piper or she was asleep. He mind-linked to Cooper who was in the hotel lobby. Pulled him off of guard duty. If Eddie was going to be sleeping in that room, he’d pick up if Piper tried to leave, or if there was any sort of trouble. Eddie would be right there to sort it out or hold down the fort until Bradley could get there himself. Which allowed for the rest of them to get some sleep during the night.

Mind-link to the man ‘Eddie, if you’re sleeping there, I expect you to be diligent in your duties as a Gamma, where my Mate and son are concerned.’ ‘Of course Bradley.’ came his reply ‘Piper is currently in the shower, Brandon is sleeping.’ he was informed and then the link was cut.

Bradley sighed and shook his head, he did not need to know she was in the shower, that was just Eddie’s way of trying to distract him from being annoyed with him. It was highly likely that Piper had no idea he was even there, this was not going to go down so well. He was going to beat that man if he screwed things up even worse than they already were.

But on the other hand, they would all be safe with Eddie in that room, and a part of him was actually glad his man was there. Wondered if he could get Piper to agree to Eddie staying in the room the whole time they were there, that would certainly ease his mind, and he and his men wouldn’t have to
rotate shifts either.

Guess he would have to ask her.

His men in Portland had finally been granted bail and been released from police custody. Though his father had not been able to get the moving van due to the fact that it did actually have some of Piper’s belongings inside it. So it had been impounded and it was not going back to them until Piper cleared all this up with the police herself.
