"I could care less about Tim. Frankly, killing him off would be a favor to me. But I'll be waiting for you and I won't let you anywhere near Dominique," Nathaniel said as he let her wrist go.
"Your pet will die at my hands before this is over," Roxy said as she walked out the door.
Dominique looked at Nathaniel quizzically. He just shrugged. He couldn't let her know that she was the pet Roxy had referred to killing. He walked over to the bar where Tim was. Tim nodded at him. Nathaniel knew he had heard Roxy.
"So, I know you heard. Do you stand with your people? Are you going to hurt Dominique?" Nathaniel asked Tim.
"I would never hurt Dominique. Not intentionally anyway. I know I've hurt her in the past because I kept secrets from her and I wasn't able to control my anger back then but I'm different now."
"I'm going to be watching over her. So, just as long as we understand each other, all should be well," Nathaniel said.
