A big man with deceitfully kind eyes stood just off to Bridgit's right and when Tessa left, he moved in.  He had a beautiful blonde on each arm who eyed her with that hostility reserved for women who felt threatened by other women.  'Moved In' was a good term for it because he had a way of occupying everyone's space with his commanding presence.  Obviously most didn't trifle with him; It was clear by the expectant air about him that he was quite use to all obeying his wants, regardless of what they are.<br/><br/>"You'll have to forgive me little one but I couldn't help overhearing your..  frustration.. shall we call it?   How badly do you want to know? .. bad enough to risk coming with me?"<br/><br/>As he spoke he topped up her drink and then turned to each of the girls and dismissed them.  Without a word, they slunk away as all good pets do when given a command.
