William planned to stop by his father's house to discuss tightening security there. He loathed to go to his father for anything (again), but he needed to be made aware of the situation. At least, a version of it. He could still hear Slater's voice in his ear, spewing venom and poisonous promises. William hadn't 'burned it down' yet as per Slater's request so there was no telling when he was planning to strike next. William would have to be ready. He would have to...
"Son of a bitch-," he growled, fists balled as he looked through the glass door to see that smug bastard standing in the hallway. Slater grinned like a shark and William could have killed him right there and then. By the time he pushed open the door, storming forward, the back door had slammed shut. A slew of profanity passed William's lips as he stopped himself from running after Slater. Instead, he pivoted to the door he knew that Slater must have come out of. He was so relieved when he burst into Ruby's room that she was there, he almost forgot to be completely fucking furious. "What the hell are you doing, Ruby?" @riotous-ruby
The door to her bedroom flew open just as she was pulling Slater's sweater over her bodyâit hung like a dress on her, which was just as well since she was naked from the waist down. "Well hello to you too. Surely it won't take too much effort to rub your two braincells together and puzzle this out." She grabbed her jeans from their heap on the floor and pulled them on. Ruby was only vaguely aware of William's beef with Slater, but frankly, she didn't care. If she wanted to have mind-blowing sex with her step-brother's enemy, well, what loyalty did she owe him?
"Jealousy's not a good look on you, William." She patted him condescendingly on the side of the face and moved past him, intent on heading to the kitchen for a snackâshe was exhausted!
