Entangled With Temptation

"So much for keeping me company," Victor muttered over Mimi's inability to keep watch over him. On the bright side, he didn't feel lonely anymore - her presence was comforting enough. 

Standing up, Victor went over to her and then placing an arm beneath her legs and the other around her shoulder, he carried her off the couch. 

He could settle her in one of the guest rooms but Victor wanted her where his eyes would find her. Nor could he trust those horny lackeys around her - the ratio of men to women here was 10:1. He would protect her as her bestie! 

Getting to his room, Victor settled Mimi on the bed and made sure she laid down properly with no discomfort. He stood over her for a while, contemplating what to do now she's asleep and he's without company. In the end, he climbed onto the bed and lay beside her.
