"Hey sweetie how are the boys today?" Randy questioned Jaysin a week later as she stepped into the lab with their blood and tissue samples for them.
"Same old same old. They all have gained weight and the sores on their bodies have healed completely. They seem to be enjoying their freedom." She told him handing over the case and stepping back from him, crossing her arms over her chest.
"Good good. I'm glad we found you Jayse. I can't believe we let that shit go on right under our noses for so long." Hunter sighed before stepping up to the small woman and wrapping his arms around her, turning her in a circle.
"I'm kind of glad I found you guys too although I thought I saw the oddest thing this morning when I was making them breakfast. I could swear that I turned and saw Roman's throat was glowing and he was blowing smoke rings from his nose. I only saw it once but was there some kind of experiment done while I went home the other day?" She asked once Hunter had set her back on her feet.
"No. Were you late or early giving him the repressor injection?" Randy asked grinning at her.
"I let them eat first today. So I guess it was a little later then normal." Jayse laughed as Randy shook his head.
"We need him fully restrained today. We have someone coming to take a look at him in about fifteen minutes, and they are probably going to take one of his scales. They have been trying to replicate it for a while now, to make a new bullet proof armor type. He'll grow it back but we want you to monitor him until he does. Do you need any more stuff to stay over?" Randy said smiling at her.
"No, honestly most of my stuff is here now. Which would really suck if I got fired." She laughed.
"I don't think that is going to be an issue." Hunter chuckled pulling the samples out from the case, and sticking one of them under his scope as Jayse headed back down the stairs.
"Its higher today then it was yesterday." Hunter said looking toward Randy and nodding to the sample in front of him.
"Roman's? He wants her bad doesn't he." Randy chuckled taking Dean's blood sample out and setting it up in his machine. "The tiger wants her too but his levels are lower then Roman's."
"Yeah but that isn't surprising considering what Roman is. She got lucky he wasn't able to get anything more then smoke rings this morning. The wolf's levels are up too by the way." Hunter said chuckling.
"I need to get you guys back into bed come on please." Jayse said as she entered the boy's room from the lab upstairs, waiting near the button by the door until the three men had settled in their beds waiting to activate their restraints.
"I need to strap you down." She said as she went over to Roman's bed, sighing when he growled at her again. She wasn't sure what his problem was but he had been growling at her every time she got near him since the first night she had stayed in the apartment. He never tried to lunge at her the way Seth did the first day but he was always growling and it was a little unnerving. She tightened the chains over his chest and hips and lowered his head restraint and put the gag in, rubbing his thigh before throwing a blanket over his legs. She went over to Seth and Dean and put blankets over their legs also before a knock sounded on the door and Mark stuck his head inside.
"You ready for them?" He asked and then held the door open for two men to pass through at her nod.
"Well you're a vast improvement over Jack. I'm Chris Jericho, and this is my partner Antonio Cesaro." The blond said taking her hand and kissing her knuckles while his eyes swept her body.
"Jayse." She said and pulled her hand back frowning slightly when all three of the boys started fussing.
"I see you already have him ready for us." Chris said with a smile that Jayse couldn't describe as anything other then sadistic.
"Um. What are you going to do exactly?" She asked following the two men over to Roman's bedside biting her lip at the way he was snarling at the two men and his body was tense.
"He's always so feisty." Chris laughed pinching Roman's cheek and making his snarl even more. "We're going to take one of the large scales from his chest. I just need you to lay the bed back for us and we'll set the machine up."
"How are you going to do that? Do I need to sedate him?" Jayse asked lowering the bed and running her fingers over Roman's arm gently once the bed was reclined.
"Jack never sedated him." Chris shrugged as the other man set a machine up on the rails of the bed. It looked almost like a small forklift with pliers and she squeezed Roman's arm again.
"How does it get the scale off him?" Jayse asked her unease growing when Antonio attached the pliers to one of the large scales on Roman's chest and stepped back nodding to Chris, who pushed a button on the machine.
"It's going to pry it out of him. The scales are layered and imbedded into the bones on his rib cage. This machine is going to pry the scale up until the connective bones break and the scale comes out." Chris chuckled crossing his arms over his chest as the machine raised the pliers, a sickening crunching sound echoing in the room. Roman's shaking body arched off the bed as much as the restrains would allow, groaning in pain as the machine drew the pliers upward, straining to rip the bones.
"What the fuck!" Jayse yelled running over to the bench and getting the sedative out, drawing up a ten minute dose of it before running back to Roman's side, injecting him with it, rubbing his cheek gently as his body relaxed and his eyes closed.
"What the fuck is wrong with you!" She screamed, throwing the syringe at Chris's head as the machine finally pried the scale loose and Roman's body fell heavily back onto the bed, blood pouring down his chest from the wound. She grabbed a towel out of the cabinet and pressed it over the wound trying not to look at the jagged pieces of bone protruding from the edge of the scale as the door slammed open and Show and Mark appeared, arms crossed over their chests looking from Jayse to Chris and Antonio.
"There a problem in here." Mark asked crossing his arms over his chest.
"Not at all. We are finished we're just leaving. I need to speak with Hunter and Randy about their assistant though." Chris said with a smirk as Antonio took the machine down and put it away in its case following him out of the room with Show and Mark following him.
"Son of a bitch." Jayse grit out getting another towel out and pressing it onto Roman's wound after throwing the fist to the ground when it was soaked. She reached up and undid the gag, putting back in the cabinet and grabbed another two towels, laying them across Roman's lap so they would be in easy reach if she needed them. She moved the chain on his chest to hold the towel down while she went back over to the bench and found some anesthetic and a needle and thread along with some gauze pads, cream, and tape, taking them all back with her.
Jayse laid the supplies out on Roman's chest, and checked the wound under the towel, glad the bleeding had slowed to a trickle. She got a small cloth out of the cabinet and ran it under warm water, dabbing the wound gently with it, looking up when Roman groaned and then growled low again and saw his eyes focused on her. She cleaned most of the blood off and got the anesthetic, injecting it near his wound, ignoring his snarl. She dabbed the area again seeing the scales over lapped and there were strips of skin where they were connected to his body.
"I'm sorry." Jayse whispered looking down at the wound and frowning. She could see the bones in the wound and she grimaced thinking about how much pain he had to endure. She sighed picking up the needle and threading it, starting to stitch the wound slowly, carefully pulling the edges of his skin together. Once she tied off the end, she gently dabbed it with the wet cloth once more, spread some antibiotic cream onto a gauze pad and taped it against his wound.
"Try not to move too much." Jayse said to Roman, lowering the wrist restraint on his injured side so his upper arm was down but his elbow was bent and he wasn't stretching his wound, and rubbed his shoulder, frowning at how hot the skin under her hand was. She pressed her hand to his forehead feeling the same, and she crossed her arms over her chest looking down at him. She didn't know if he could get a fever or not or if it was just because her hands were warm. She leaned over him and pressed her lips to his forehead, feeling that he was still hot even like that and she sighed as he growled at her again, jumping back when she felt his fingers against the skin of her stomach under her lab coat and shirt.
"I'll be right back." She said slipping out the door and running up the stairs to the lab.
"Fuck Rome are you ok?" Seth whined, his sad brown eyes focused on the larger man.
"I can't feel it right now pup she numbed it. I don't think I've ever been glad to be sedated though." Roman sighed looking at his chest still not used to not being able to see the wound. Jack had never sedated him and always just left him writing in pain once Chris had snapped his scales off.
"If only she had throw that needle a little harder." Dean sighed, his lips twitching at remembering the way the feisty woman taking care of them throwing the needle at Chris's head for hurting Roman.
"Fuck man don't make me laugh I don't want to tear these." Roman said chuckling, and then his lips tightened at remembering the feeling of her small hand soothing him before he went out, and her lips pressing to his forehead. She didn't seem to understand his desire for her and kept telling him to stop letting her know that he wanted her, even though he knew she felt the same way since he could smell her arousal.
"Jayse? Did you really throw a syringe at Chris's head?" Randy asked frowning, crossing his arms over his chest
"You're damn right I did. Do you have any idea how they take the scales from Roman?" Jayse spit out putting her hands on her hips.
"Well no, Jack never said anything and…I guess it was bad wasn't it." Randy sighed. "Is he ok?"
"I stitched it. But he's hot now and I'm not sure if it's because he was wounded like that. Randy they snapped bones." She whispered.
"It could be a healing reaction. Just monitor him Jayse. I'm going to cancel that contract. Check on Seth too make sure he's better after the trial he just did please." Hunter said picking up his phone as Jayse disappeared down the steps.
Jayse opened the door and spotted one of the chocolate bars on the counter, deciding that the chocolate was just the thing she needed to calm herself down after what had happened. She grabbed the bar and broke off a small piece sticking it into her mouth and groaning softly. Yep chocolate fixes everything. She went over to Seth's bed and activated his head restraint so she could check him over, frowning when he kept sniffing at her.
"What? You want some of this?" She asked him breaking a piece of the chocolate bar off and holding it in front of him. She couldn't help the smile that came to her face when he sniffed at the chocolate and then looked at her, opening his mouth.
"You bite me and I'm going to be mad at you." She told him slipping the piece of chocolate between his lips, pulling her fingers back quickly. She felt his head noting his temperature seemed normal, and pressed around his neck to make sure there was no swelling left from the experiment that was conducted on him.
"Well you seem to have come through the experiment well." She told him and then laughed when he whined, looking down at her pocket.
"Only a little more I don't want you to get sick." She laughed looking down to break off another piece of chocolate from the bar missing the way his eyes flickered to Deans. She held the piece to his lips, but looked over at Dean when he hissed, her hand moving closer to Seth mouth and he closed his lips and teeth over her fingers that held the chocolate, biting down hard enough to keep her from pulling back but he wasn't hurting her. Jayse sat still, holding her breath as Seth's tongue worked over her fingers to get the chocolate off of them before he eased up with his teeth and let her pull her fingers out of from between his lips slowly.
