"I love you.....
I think the madness started the moment we met
and you shook my hand.
Did you have a disease or something?"

I felt his lips trail over my skin gently, while my fingertips held onto his muscled back. He might not have been in ring action but I knew he took pride in his physique, something that I admired about him.

I suppressed a moan as he gently sucked on my sensitive nipples as I had just come undone beneath him and he knew it. I knew he was done, we were both done but that didn't stop him from teasing me...

"I missed you" I whispered, wishing I hadn't but I couldn't stop myself, I had missed him terribly.

He had been taking off from work for a bit as he was running things from the Headquarters but surprised me last night by showing up at my hotel room door with a bottle of my favourite wine and a beautiful exclusive handbag by Louis Vuitton.

He liked to spoil me and I always loved everything he got me. He didn't need to do it nor had I asked him to, but in a way I felt like he was trying to buy my silence sometimes. Only he didn't have to because I loved him and saying anything would risk me losing him. So I believed the other part of me that let me know he simply bought these things for me because he felt guilty at being away so often.

I hadn't been with anyone after Nick and once I returned to the WWE I spent sometime trying to figure out my purpose in the industry but I saw none. I was just not myself, so he later took me under his wing and here we were, two years after being trained by the King of Kings and I was sharing a bed with him.

Knowing it was wrong as he had a family but I couldn't stop myself..

He gazed up at me, "I missed you too, Stephanie"

"Funny" I shook my head and sighed, knowing he was trying to mess with me.

Maybe if it were like old times, with him being constantly around, I would love it but he wasn't and the last thing I wanted in my short time with him was a reminder of how wrong what I was doing was..

"That is your name" he smiled as his lips left me and he moved beside me and propped himself on his elbow.

"Yes but not what everyone knows me by and if you start, for all I know its your wife's name you are calling out.." I whispered.

I glanced out of the window, knowing he would have to leave soon as the darkness was fading.

"I guess you have to have confidence that she can't make me feel the way you do" He shrugged with a small smile.

Stephanie had been in charge of the company for awhile now and with her being in charge? Let's just say her main priority was getting into the good books with her father.

So the more time she was at work, the more we would train and eventually led to us having a connection that I couldn't explain.

I swore I would never be the other woman as I was better than that. But when you're at your lowest point and someone is simply there all the time, you become attached.

Frankly I'm like a barnacle to a fucking whale, so yeah I was attached to my boss or my boss' son-in-law..

I sat up and pulled the covers over me as I sat on the edge of the bed.

"Just don't call me Stephanie again okay? I don't need a reminder of this..." I sighed and felt him scoot behind me.

"I thought you loved this" He whispered onto my shoulder before kissing it, making me smile a bit.

"I love you. I hate this sneaking around and not being able to tell my family that I am with this amazing man because he is my boss and has a family." I whispered as I always had the moments where I wished I hadn't fallen for Authority but I simply did.

I felt his lips on my back before feeling his fingers as he slowly massaged my shoulders and I leaned back against his chest and gazed up into his brown green eyes.

"Nicole, don't do this. We both don't want this to end. You do this every time I come back"

"Because you disappear from work and disappear from my life. I can't call you at the risk of someone checking your phone and then you pitch up here looking.." I wavered but he interrupted me.

"Looking?"

"Looking all handsome and melting my heart. You know I am head over heels for you Hunter and sometimes I think you take advantage of it because you do" I confessed.

He frowned and moved back and I did as well as he sat in front of me and held my hand.

"It was never my intention to make you feel that way. You know that I want you, being at work makes it difficult. I have Stephanie around and you come in and out for meetings and I find my eyes on you because you're so beautiful.."

"You're a charmer Hunter Levesque" I shook my head as I stood up and slipped on a silk robe and felt him behind me as he had slipped on his shorts.

"That you love" he kissed into my neck.

"Unfortunately sometimes"

"Next time I will remind you how good it is to love someone like me"

I shook my head as he moved in front of me.

"Okay Big Head! You have to go and I have to sleep a bit more "

I leaned up on my toes and kissed him deeply as he held me close.

"See you tonight?" I questioned, trying not to sound too desperate for more of his attention.

"Mmmm.." He mumbled, kissing me one more time before I went to the door and glanced out before letting him go.

Hating that he had to leave and knowing he wouldn't be back tonight...

I sunk onto my bed for a few minutes just loving the smell of his cologne on the sheets before ripping myself away. I figured I would head to Brie's hotel room down the hallway and distract myself but as I left my room I heard giggling instead.

I frowned as I turned but saw little Alanna running over to me as Randy chased after.

"Coco!" She squealed as she reached me and I lift her into my arms and smiled.

"Hey Ally!" I squeezed her while narrowing my eyes at Randy.

"Go wake up Brie!" I smiled and opened the door with the key card I had gotten, just in case of emergencies.

I closed the door behind her. My sister's loving husband was not on this tour so there was no risk of little Alanna being scarred.

"Trying to get rid of my daughter so you can be alone with me?" He whispered into my ear as he leaned forward and I moved back.

"Using your daughter to get to me is more like it Orton?" I folded my arms as I had known Alanna ever since we returned in 2012, thanks to my sister.

"Don't flatter yourself Garcia.. We were going for a walk because I happen to need the gym." He shrugged as he folded his arms as well and I tried not to get distracted by his tattooed arms.

"So you wake her at 6am?" I raised my eyebrow as Randy always had a way of pitching up everywhere which I didn't think much of but it didn't mean it wasn't annoying..

"She's been up since five. She tends to get excited on tours, you know that?"

I sighed and smiled.

"Don't I get a hug?" He pouted as he unfolded his arms and opened them wide. I eyed him and briefly glanced away but moved into his arms and felt his arms wrap around me.

He smelled like he had just showered and used the hotel's scented body wash that I happened to like..

"No underwear Nicole?" I heard amusement and I jumped back and folded my arms against my gown, covering my chest.

"Go annoy someone else" I shook my head.

"Just say you want me Nicole and I'm yours" He smirked as his eyes trailed over my body.

"I had you remember?" I snapped and he glanced away, making me regret bringing up our drunken night.

It was why I liked to mess with him being obsessed with me, only I knew he wasn't. I had joked about him using Alanna but she had crept into my heart and due to his divorce a few years back he saw her even less so I knew he most likely really wanted her to head to the gym with him.

"Mmmm now you have no one" he rolled his eyes after recovering.

"Sure" I shrugged as I headed for the door of my sister's room but heard his confused voice.

"Am I wrong?"

"Randy.." I sighed as I couldn't exactly tell anyone and considering he was part of Evolution that couldn't end well.

"If you have a boyfriend then let me at him because I find it weird that I haven't heard about him" I turned to face him again and noticed him frowning.

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"You happen to get love sick after one day" He shrugged, the frown disappearing as he regained his composure.

"Not with you" I snapped hoping he would simply leave me alone.

"That was one night, a long night but not a day. Still waiting for my day Garcia" he whispered as he moved closer.

"You can go to the gym. We'll bring Alanna with us later" I pushed his hand that was reaching for my cheek away and glared at him.

"So you can have an excuse to come to my room later?" He smirked and I sighed.

"Goodbye Orton"

I turned away from him but felt his grip on my hand as he pulled me close against his bare chest, making me gasp.

"One night and your body still remembers me. " He smirked as my nipples betrayed me.

"Yet I can't seem to remember that night at all" I glared as I stared up at him as he held me in place.

"You sure?"

"It wasn't memorable" I lied as I wasn't sure what I was thinking that night.

"Oh Randy yes..yes..yesssss" he smiled as he closed his eyes as he mimicked me I guess while I rolled mine, trying to hide my smile.

Randy could always make me smile when I definitely didn't want to..

"I was drunk remember?" I bit my lip as I would not give him the satisfaction of having me smile.

"Mmmm the drunk mind speaks the truth Nicole" he shrugged.

His grip loosened around me as he leaned down and placed a soft kiss into my neck before making his way down the hallway.

I sighed as he was one confusing man but I had learnt it best to erase my encounters with him immediately after..

"Is my best friend still trying to get you?"

I smiled as I saw John as he opened the hotel room door.

"I thought you were on a different tour. Please tell me I didn't send Alanna into being scarred for life?" I asked, ignoring his question.

He laughed as he pulled me into a side hug.

He didn't understand Randy's game with me ever since that night, he would just be joking with me. I will admit he had never touched me like he just had but it was 6am so I blamed fatigue on those actions.

"No, I let Brie sleep in this morning so I'm making breakfast." He smiled brightly most likely thinking about how happy she would be with breakfast in bed.

"You have a freaking kitchen in your suite? I hate you guys" he moved out of the doorway to let me in.

I should have known John wouldn't let his wife stay in an average room despite it annoying her that he spent unnecessary money on her.

"He ain't going to leave you until you give him a shot" He stated as if it were obvious.

"His harmless" I rolled my eyes, glancing down the now empty hallway.

He laughed and smirked and I knew he was about to say something that would annoy me.

"He seems harmless but he is a Predator and it seems like you are his Prey..."
