"I can tell from that look in your eye, you are plotting something. As well as you're confused on a matter. So hurry up, spit it out."
Sighing, Elias took a seat next to Benjamin.
"When I laid eyes on her, Benji it felt like the whole world stopped. Something about her pulls me to her, I can't describe it. I just know I've never felt this feeling before and every time I hear her- Benjamin stop staring at me like that, its creepy."
Benjamin just started raising his eyebrows at Elias and kept up the knowing smile that covered his face.
"I won't say what it is your feeling. You are gonna figure it out for yourself my friend."
Patting his back, he got up and went to his pantry, emerging seconds later with a box of chocolate chip cookies.
Handing one to Elias, he sat back down and waved for him to continue."Why won't you tell me? Is it that obvious?"
"Yes Ellie, it really is. You're just really oblivious and dumb sometimes, especially when it comes to your own feelings."
Sighing, said man ran his hands over his face. He knew his best friend was right, he was never one to be very intuitive with feelings and emotions.
He took after his mother with that, she never could tell and it transferred to him."Also, Ellie don't go starting a war. That's the last thing anyone in Stockholm needs, especially Nova. You know that, the feds would have your ass quicker than you could say run. I don't have to lecture you on needing a proper reason for calling for war like that. Despite what you may feel for that asshole's daughter, you have to think about the club, the citizens, the consequences and yourself."
"I know, I know. It's frustrating as fuck, because Vinne Kröw is the literal definition of a human shit stain. He aggravates everyone in Sweden, except for the ones who need his help and even they can barely stand him."
Both men knew each other were correct, it was just hard to focus on the good, while the bad was sitting right next to it.
It would be a hard decision to ignore it for now, but Elias knew it was for the best."Alright man, you need to get some rest. It's already 11:26 and you have to be up by 7:30, latest 8. So head to your floor and take a nice, hot shower and sleep."
Getting up, both men made their way to the door, "Goodnight Benji, sleep well. I'll see you in the morning."
"Goodnight Ellie, you too."
Making his way back to the elevator, Elias' conscious weighed heavily on his mind, but this was his life and his duty.
He would always do what was right for his people, reminding himself of that, he stepped in and once again pressed the button, only this time for his floor at the top of the castle.
Entering his foyer, he grabbed the mail that his head maid, Freya placed down at some point during the day.
Carrying it up to his bedroom, he set it down on the bedside table and made his way to the bathroom that was connected to the room.Stripping down to nothing, Elias turned the knobs of his walk in shower to make the water come out hot. Stepping under the stream of water, he sighed with contentment, it was much needed after such a stressful day, with an added unexpected turn of events.
Grabbing his body wash that smelled like an expensive bottle of cologne, he lathered up his hands and ran his hands over his body.
Running his hands down his washboard abs, he grasped his throbbing cock and started stroking.
His mind flashed with multiple images of it being Nova being the one to do this to him. Speeding up, stars flashed across his vision, his breathing sped up, chest rising and falling rapidly.Finally, he let out a groan of completion and fell back, to lean on the bathroom wall.
Catching his breath, Elias washed off any remaining soap and reached for his towel, that sat on the warming rack.Drying off, he wrapped it around his waist and stepped out of the shower. Walking to his sink, he picked up his toothbrush and brushed his teeth, while staring at the wall through the mirror.
Finishing up in the bathroom, he treaded to his walk in closet and grabbed some grey sweatpants, slid them on and climbed into bed.
Sleep came quickly and he fell into a peaceful oblivion.
