Salvation (The Protectors 2)

I heard Seth hang up the phone and I glanced over my shoulder to see him hanging his head and running his fingers through his hair. I was about to ask him how he was doing when the office door flew open so hard that it slammed into the wall. A red faced, portly guy surged through it, a folder in his hand.
“I’ve left you three messages, Nichols!” the man bellowed. He threw the folder at Seth. “If you even think of trying to pull a fast one on us, we’ll hit you with everything we’ve got. Our lawyers will have your ass wrapped up so tight, you won’t be able to shit for weeks!”
“Mr. Abernathy-”
The man, who I now realized was the union president for some of the men and women who worked for Seth, slapped his hands on the desk and got in Seth’s face as he grabbed him by the shirt. “Listen here, you little shit-”
I didn’t even listen to the rest of what the fucker had to say as I got up and strode across the office. I grabbed him by the back of his collar and yanked him upright. “I think you’re the one who needs to listen, you fat little fuck,” I bit out as I used my free hand to propel the guy backwards until he hit the wall next to the office door. I ignored the startled look Seth’s assistant gave me from her desk just outside the office.
“Ronan-” I heard Seth call, but I ignored him.
“If you ever speak to him that way again or lay even one fucking finger on him, I will kick your fat ass until you’re the one who can’t take a shit without crying. Get the fuck out!” I snarled before shoving the guy so hard that he stumbled to his knees outside the office door. I grabbed the door and slammed it shut, then flipped the lock. I turned to find Seth just feet behind me, his face drawn up tight with anger.
“Damn it, Ronan, I was handling it.”
“That fucker-”
“Is an important part of this company,” Seth interrupted. “Like it or not, I need to be able to work with him! You can’t just-”
“I can and I will,” I nearly yelled. My anger was still simmering as I closed the distance between us. “No one touches you like that. No one!”
The rage at seeing the man put his hands on Seth was still pouring through me and I knew I needed to get control of myself, but my whole body was aching to go back and find the guy and beat on him just because I could. I was seriously thinking of doing just that when Seth suddenly reached up and grabbed me by the back of the neck. His hold was firm and strong. I expected him to argue with me some more but instead, he yanked me forward and then his mouth was closing over mine.
He used my shock against me and stole into my mouth in one swift move. But my recovery was quick and I dragged him forward as my hands searched out his ass and my tongue dove into his mouth. I showed him no mercy as I consumed his mouth, but I couldn’t stop him from jerking backwards when someone knocked loudly on the office door.
“Seth!” I heard Stan call. “Are you all right in there?”
Seth was breathing hard and we were staring hungrily at each other. “I’m fine, Stan,” Seth called but he didn’t move otherwise. I could see the indecision in his gaze as he looked me up and down and then his eyes settled on my dick and I nearly groaned out loud.
“Seth, open this door, please! Mr. Abernathy said he was assaulted.”
I didn’t give a shit about that but Seth straightened and then moved past me. He ran his fingers through his hair and then straightened his tie before unlocking and opening the door.
“Tell Mr. Abernathy that I will call him later once he calms down,” Seth said firmly. “Also tell him that if he ever lays a hand on me again, his pride won’t be the only thing that’ll be hurting.”
I saw Stan’s stunned expression at Seth’s words but the man kept sucking in air without actually saying anything.
“Nancy, I don’t want to be disturbed for the rest of the afternoon,” Seth ordered and then he was slamming the door and locking it. My cock twitched hungrily as he turned to face me. I had no idea where the hell we stood, but I was painfully aroused and I wanted nothing more than to finish what we started, friendship be damned.
Seth reached his fingers up to loosen his tie. But he did more than just loosen it. He took it off all together and then he was striding towards me with singular determination. I held my breath as he stopped in front of me and handed me the tie. Then he was grabbing my hand and leading me to the bathroom at the far end of the office. As soon as he closed the door behind us, he was on me, his mouth searching mine out. My lust exploded as my brain finally caught up and I wrapped my hands around Seth’s neck to hold him in place as I kissed him. If I expected any shyness on Seth’s part, I was completely mistaken because as I was desperately sucking on his tongue, his hand was snaking into my pants and closing around my dick. I groaned against his lips as he stroked up and down my length. His hold wasn’t tight enough so I quickly reached down to undo my pants. I closed my hand around his and showed him how much pressure to exert. The friction of his palm against my flesh was exquisite, but my need was so intense that I couldn’t just stand there and enjoy it, so I ripped my shirt off before working on the buttons of his.
