Shaw snarled as he watched Theon take Sadler with ease. Sadler was a pretty good fighter, he wasn't a Zac but still he made a decent income for him. This fight gave Shaw what he wanted. He was looking for Theon's style and way of fighting. 

He knew all of his fighters as a owner should pairing them off in a manner that worked in his favor. This fight allowed him to get a base for Theon, something to work from. 

"Not bad." Commented Shaw, stroking Asher dark locks, "You did well." 

Asher leaned hard into Shaw's touch, "Thank you." He commented lightly, happy with the praise he was receiving.

"Maybe, keeping you on the lower level isn't so bad of a place for you." Shaw states thinking out loud. "I'm sure Zac would love to see you more often." 

Shaw smiling as he got up, he liked the idea of dangling Asher over Zac, maybe that would get an even better fight out of him. 

Asher's heart sank at the thought of working full time with the fighters. He was honestly afraid of them. The only thing that kept them in line was that Shaw had marked him, but even then he could still see the temptation in their eyes. There were the ones that hated Shaw so they hated him and the ones that wanted a taste of something forbidden. 

"Then again, I would miss seeing you on the floor." Shaw sighs as if it was a hard choice for him to make.

"Maybe I'll just assign you to Theon again till his next fight and go from there, not wanting to overwhelm you."

Shaw could easily make Asher do anything he wanted, he just needed to weigh his options out. Keep him on the bottom level and attend to the fighters as needed. Assign him to just Theon, maybe getting a bigger fire started in Zac since he's asked for Asher in the past only to be denied. 

Theon was new and at the bottom of the ranks, so having Asher assigned just to him would easily piss Zac off in Shaw's mind. Could really work it to his favor and have their match be some huge blow out for him. 

"Stay with Theon for now." Stated Shaw cupping Asher's chin in his hand, squeezing tighter, "Make me happy." 

Shaw wanted wins and nothing else. 

"I will." 

Asher wanted to please Shaw, if that meant over seeing Theon's injuries then he would do it. So far Theon has been on the tamer side of fighters that have come through here. Still being down on the lower level with Theon meant he would also be around the other fighters at times.

Shaw had a tight schedule made up that kept the fighters away from one another. He didn't need anything to break out among them outside of the ring itself. 

The only people that really tended to cross paths were the caretakers and other staff with the individual fighter. This made him feel uncomfortable, at least on the club floor he didn't find himself so alone like he did here most of the time. 

"I want a word with him." Shaw spoke looking down at Theon in the ring below as he motioned for his goons to move. 

Letting out a quick chuckle as he turned, giving Asher a glance, "You know what I want done." And left the room. 

After the match was called, Theon stood back letting out a heavy growl towards the crowd. The fight worked him up more than he liked for it to have done. Taking longer to fully reel himself in and find that level grounding. 

His blood was pumping and his breathing heavy as he walked back into the locker room. Shaw was already in there waiting for him. 

"Impressive. A little short for my liking but you pleased the crowd."

"Could care less what you or they think." Theon snarled, he was only doing this for his sister's freedom. "I held my part of the deal now let Chloe go." 

Theon proved that he could hold his own, that he would be the cash cow for Shaw till he made what Chloe dug herself into back. 

"So worried." Shaw looked at Theon, "She's in good hands just as you are."

"The deal was me for her." Barked Theon, stepping to Shaw.

Shaw, not swaying in his stance, holding his ground, "She'll be let go as promised." 

"I want to see her before she leaves." 

Theon didn't trust Shaw one bit, he wanted to see his sister, to make sure she was okay. 

"I guess I could make that happen. You did win after all." 

Shaw smiling, "First get cleaned up and rest for the night, I'll let you see her tomorrow, it's a bit late already."

 Shaw spoke looking at his watch then back at Theon, with a smirk.

 * * * * *

Asher grabs his first aid kit before returning to Theon's room. 

"Is it okay to come in." He asked, peeping his head in the door with no answer in reply.

Asher cautious not sure what mood Theon might be in after the fight and talking with Shaw. The sound of water running from the shower could be heard as he walked in. The room Theon was assigned had all the basic needs: a bed, couch, folding card table with chairs, small kitchenette area, and a bathroom. 

"Still with me." Commented Theon as he walked out of the bathroom nothing on but a towel draped over his shoulders, steam escaping the doorway behind him.

"Shaw would like for me to stay with you, yes." 

Asher spoke looking over his shoulder in Theon's direction, quickly averted his eyes pulling his attention to his kit fumbling with his hands and dropping gauze on the ground.

"You're an interesting one. " Commented Theon, moving closer to Asher, "Act as if you've never seen a male naked before."

Theon joked but the beet red look on his face was telling him it wasn't a joke.

 "Wait, you mean to tell me you're a virgin. . . " Theon's blood started to boil again.

Taking the towel and wrapping it around his waist. 

"He marks you . . . claims you . . . I can't believe it. Fucking bastard." 

Theon growling he couldn't wrap his mind around the idea of evening beginning to think about marking an omega and not love them or at least care for them in some manner.

Sure he already knew that Shaw was twisted in the head. That he was a cruel man overall but to fuck with the mind of someone so innocent in that way as just fucked up on so many levels.

The arrangement between the two of them still had its holes for him, so he didn't know everything but the more he was learning the less he was liking it. 

Shaw really did use everyone around him to his advantage. Asher could smell the anger coming off of Theon, causing him to pull in tight towards himself, embarrassment and shame washing over him. 

"He cares about me. Just in his own way." Asher spoke, wanting to fully believe his own words. 

Shaw did everything in his power to deprive Asher's omega side of anything and everything it needed. Theon wondering briefly if maybe it was better this way. Asher was clearly bitten against his will, forcing him to have sex would just add to the torment, but he knew that meant he was suffering either way. To not be loved or forced against his will. The treatment a huge double edge sword. 

Theon opened his mouth to say something but held back. He could see the pain in Asher's eyes they both knew the truth just neither one of them had the guts to say it.
