Chapter 6 : Possessive

The area was quite dusty it was still few times left before the journey will begin.

The boys and the doctor went to the sides when Timothy spoke.

"Go find a cabin for us to spend the night . It's going be crowdy soon ." He said looking at the entrance

" Tim , It's a cargo ship , there is no way we will find a cabin but I'll talk to the staff member ." Theodore said fixing his backpack.

" Call Vernon and tell him to sought this out" he nodded at Timothy's words . He turned back his heels and disappeared at the crowd .

Different kinds of smell were emitting on the area , Layla couldn't help but scrunched her nose . She is really sensitive to these smell . She can't even stand when Timothy smokes cigar .

Her eyes got widen , both in horror and from the touch . She felt a strong hand brush on her butt . In her trance she looked at her Right . She almost thought she made a wrong assumption when a strong bulky man looked back at her , with a disgusting smirk . Licking his own lips he looked at her eyes and winked.

She didn't like the clothes that Georgia gave her at all . The jacket was not even touching her waist , showing her curves through the thin pale pink t-shirt . And the tight fitted jeans weren't doing any justice to show off her back and thighs.

She licked her own lips and decided to look again . The man was wearing black cut off sleeve jacket , black pants and a weird colourful hairstyles . His hairs were bright neon green , undercut from one side and was laying on another side . His face was full of modifications consisting see through piercing under lips, horns , nose piercing on 2 sides and on the bottom of nose . Both of his arms were filled with tattoos and dirty smirk was playing on his lips . He was rubbing his chin , eyes lingering on her back while his lips where licking his bottom ones.

"Eyes on me"

she heard as well as felt a hand on her waist . She didn't dare to look at the owner of the voice . She looked down but that didn't last for long . Timothy grabbed her face with his finger and thumb , pressing hard on her cheeks he made her looked at her . Her terrified eyes looked at his dark ones .

"Eyes on me , Wifey" his eyes titled his side and he looked satisfied when she submitted herself into his command . Looking straight at his eyes .

"Tim, the ship will be transferring some of the passengers after few hours of journey . Maybe after that we can have some space and get a cabin ."

"It's a 2 days of journey , there shouldn't be any 'maybe' . We have to get a cabin ." Her body stiffed as Tim roared in anger .

"Calm down , your majesty . We will figured out something . Let's just moved from here , the crowd is getting bigger"

They all started move to the edge of the ship but Layla was hesitating . She doesn't like heights , it gives her anxiety . She can't say this to the boys , she is already feeling like a burden . She doesn't want to be more troublesome for them .

"Follow my lead , Layla" Timothy's voice was gentle at this time . She looked at him as he was looking at her feet . She took steps like a baby and then went to the edge .

Her eyes landed on the sea and she couldn't help but the fear started getting on her nerves and skin , crawling like a demon and making her more and more afraid .

People were making ways ways to the side , making more space for the rest which are still waiting outside in the que.

"Everyone move inside , move , move. " the staffs were screaming and pushing some the passengers like animals of cattle.

A staff pushed Layla hard , making her lose balance but Timothy did managed to held her. Before they could react, the guard already walked off.

People came Forward so they all went to the edge of the ship . They went to the very corner and Timothy stood near the railing . The crowd was getting bigger and people were standing with brushing their bodies with each other . Layla got uncomfortable . She couldn't help but cling more to Timothy. The Mafia circled his arms around her pulling her more but still she felt touch of men behind her .

Some were unintentionally but the majority was intentionally .

Brian saw that and got behind layla , he tried to make a safe distance but the crowd was way too much to succeed him . He eyed Timothy something .

Timothy got the hint and grabbed her elbow to switch their positions . Layla was freaking out to walked extremely close to the railing but Timothy made it worst by pushed her waist completely to the edge .

He got closer to her while brian went to their right and Theodore was on left . The boys were protecting the girl while facing their back on her and Timothy looked at the girl who is closer to her anxiety attack by looking back at the edge .

"Don't look back , look at me ." He said while leaning closer but she didn't heard him properly cause of the loud chaos , crowd noise and yelling of staffs .

Timothy couldn't help but leaned closer to her ear .

"Dare to look back one more time and I'll throw you down" he whispered making her eyes big .

"Did I made myself clear?" He asked leaning back and she hesitatingly nodded .

[Flashback ends]

Layla was way to close to her husband . The crowd was jam-packed and everyone was sticking with each other like glue . It was good that the boys walked to the edge , at least she can breath a little .

"Theo, how much more time we have to stay like this?" Timothy asked impatiently. There is no way he can stand like this .

"Maybe an hour or two Tim. " Theodore replied while crooking his head on the left .

Timothy's hands were holding the railing, making space for the doctor . He huffed but nodded anyway .

On the other hand , Layla looked at her front through Timothy's shoulder. The same man from earlier noticed her in the crowds . He heart stopped beating as the man gave her the most disgusting dirty glance . He singled something really very inappropriate , fingers making hole and the index finger going inside .

The crowd and her husband were making her appreance hidden but the man still managed to notice the milkey skinned neck with pooped out collarbone. It was ready to get bitten , bruised and destroyed . She was an open invention for him.

Timothy looked at her from the corner of his eyes but before he could react , she clenched her eyes shut and buried her face deep on his neck . The hot breath of hers were making him hard to process anything . He couldn't think anything straight.

Just few hours ago , he decided to get married to a girl he never met before and now she is hugging him , so close to him that Timothy is also so close to lose his sanity .

His one hand loses the grip from the railing and went to her waist . Without his knowledge , he hugged her back . Only finding the girl in ponytail hugged tighter like her life depends on that.

.

"Nice and comfortable right, Layla"

"Yes , thank you Brian ." Layla replied with a warm smile while sitting on the worn out mattress.

Brian found the girl cute and Layla found this golden brown eye guy adorable. He even reminds her of Cody.

The ship was almost half empty as the staffs moved some of the passengers to a different ship in the middle of the sea . Now remaining passengers are making their ways to get some sleep which is almost impossible in -3° . But Brian and Theodore manged to get a mattress and 2 thick blankets .

"Share your blankets fellas . Consider it's a honeymoon of your small marriage life . Y'all get separated anyways after getting back to Seattle." Theodore said while laughing . But neither Timothy or Layla find it funny.

Layla was still red as tomato about what happened few moments ago . She hugged him but didn't expected Timothy to hug back . And for the Mafia prince it was an act which happens cause of heat of the moment.

He didn't had any intention to hug the pathetic stupid girl who is afraid of every other thing . Timothy Vincenzo Salvatore deserves a strong personality beside him , a women who can stand beside him like a shield , who can protect herself , defend herself . He wants a tigress , not a coward deer . He wants a power , not a weakness.

He can't wait to just go back and cut ties with her . He can't stand such a weak soul , he is praying for the time to pass quickly.

"I don't need that , I'm okay with a drink" Timothy said while opening up a bottle of Koniak. Theodore put small cups and started pouring the drink .

Are they really going to drink that in front of me ?

Layla gulped but decided to not open her mouth . Let them do whatever they want . She pulled the blanket closer to her more and more , until she was looking like a wrapped up human burrito.

"Aww , look how cute she looks ." Brian cooed at her while taking a small sip. She looked at him with her chattering teeth.

"Here , if you don't wanna get frozen and die then have this , it will help to warm up ." Theo said while pushing a cup in the middle. She shook her head while sinking her head and ears more into the blanket .

"I-I d-dont , drink" she managed to say 3 words and then again clenched on the blanket hard .

"Suit yourself then , but I offered cause I don't want to carry a corpse ." said with a mocking smile while she didn't say anything .

"In that case , do you wanna spare some to your fellow passengers buddy??"

The bulky man sat beside Layla, where the little space was left on her side . He hovered over her , hand stretching to Theo who was 2-3 meters away from Layla .

Layla shifted herself more to Timothy's side and the gap between both of them were close now . She didn't dare to look at the man but the guy hovered again and asked for the liquor . It was impossible for her to even breathe. The man was so close that his breath was fanning her cheeks .

Timothy shifted his cup from left hand to his right one . He stretched his hand upwards and throw it on his wife's shoulder . Pulling her closer he eyed the man , who was looking at her few seconds back but quickly shifted his gaze to Young Salvatore

"I don't share" he said while rubbing his thumb on her shoulder which was covered in blanket . Even in the thick layers she find the gesture very calming and soothing , totally opposite what the words came from his mouth .

"It's not wrong to share yeah , we need to survive tin this weather . A little kick would definitely help , don't you think?" The man still has the audacity to ask this .

Timothy felt a small tug on his Right hand . The girl was looking at his shirt , lips wobbling , she was ready to break out in sob at any moment when he noticed a the guy's hand (upto wrist) was inside the blanket , it was moving .

A gasp left from her mouth when suddenly the mafia pulled her from the mattress and made her sit on his lap. She looked at him on disbelief, trying to process what just happened .

His blood started boiling inside when he saw the girl was fixing her tshirt , which was misplaced and showing her bare waist . It didn't went unnoticed by Brian and Theo either.

"Why don't you get yours ? We are finishing this one ." Theo said and this was que for the guy to leave . So the guy scoffed and sat up . But not before glaring at Layla .

After he left Timothy felt something wet on his hand . He looked at the girl who was silently crying, tears were kissing her cheeks and falling from eyes to cheeks , to her chin. He moved his hand upwards and touched her chin with his fingertips . Making her look at his eyes.

Only he knows how much he controlling his inner beast to not burst and ripped the head off from the body of that guy . But he doesn't want to make a mess in here cause it will cause more problem . Or worst , they could get deported back to Mexico with a red stamp on their passport.

"Keep your eyes on that pest ." Eyes didn't left from her's and Timothy said to his friends .

"Okay" they replied in unison .
