Rating: Normal Sexual Content Featuring: Kane, Undertaker

I threw my keys on the table and popped the cork from the bottle of chilled champagne that I had picked up on my way to the hotel. My boyfriend, Brad had come to stay with me in the lavish suite the company had provided. It was oceanfront, so he had plenty to do while I tended to business for the Simon & Schuster, a book publishing company. I started untucking my shirt from my skirt, I even unbuttoned the top three buttons to add a little sex appeal, then I pulled the pins out of my hair allowing it to cascade down my back, I was hoping that we could spend some long overdue time together. I tousled my hair to one side, picked up the champagne glasses, and headed to the bedroom, excited to give Brad my news. The company had given me a promotion. It was a quarter till midnight, and I found it odd for him to be in bed so early. "Hmmm, he usually stays up and watches the late show." I thought, "Well maybe he was tired." I put my hand on the door and slowly proceeded to enter and surprise him with my news. As the glass shards ricocheted off the wooden floors, I felt them nick my legs a bit, and then I couldn't feel anything, I was numb. I managed a gasp as I covered my mouth with my hand. I turned to leave with tears streaming down my face, blinded by my blonde curls. I had to get out of there, oh God why? I grabbed the keys and cell phone, without even thinking, I dialed the last number in the phone, and it was Glenn. "Hehello." A sleeping giant answered. "Oh god, Mr. Jacobs, I am so sorry I dialed the last number in the speed dial, please forgive me for waking you up. I hope I haven't interrupted your night." I said making apologies for the intrusion. Mr. Jacobs was my client that I had traveled here to oversee the creation of his biography. He was in the entertainment industry, more importantly sports entertainment, the World Wrestling Federation. He was the superstar known as Kane, half brother to the Undertaker, a legend in his own time. Hell, even I knew who the Undertaker was, a very striking but complicated man. Mr. Jacobs the man, however, was so much deeper than his character, he had a college degree and a family. He had it all "Shayna tell me whats wrong, do you need some help?" He asked. I thought fast because my disturbance could cost me this whole account and my job. "Oh, don't worry Mr. Jacobs, everything is alright, I'll see you at our meeting tomorrow." "Shayna I told you to call me Glenn, I can tell you have been crying, please come to my hotel, we can talk, and I can't sleep anyhow." "I better not but I appreciate your offer. I am going to take a walk on the ocean." I said cutting it short and disconnecting the line between us. "Shay..." Glenn said as he heard a dial tone. He pulled himself up out of the bed and straightened his boxers as he pulled on his black jeans and t-shirt. He grabbed his keys and a windbreaker, and then headed off to search for her. Shayna walked the oceanfront and found a small grouping of rocks and she huddled down next to them, still in her black skirt and silky pale blue blouse, she looked out upon the ocean. It was so destructive, but so beautiful. She drew her knees to her chin as the night air blew cooler, and her tears ran hotter. Her mind repeated the scene over and over, the woman cried out, as she saw Brad rise and fall above her. He never stopped; he turned and smirked at her, as he continued to fulfill his lust with the one beneath him. Shayna cried and cried until she had given herself one hell of a headache. Glenn had walked the oceanfront up and down and no sight of her, then he spotted the cluster of rocks,

as his strides grew larger, there he found her laying against the rocks as her tears glistened in the moonlight. She had ultimately cried herself to sleep. He bent down, then scooped her up in his arms, and carried her back to his hotel. When the warm air of the hotel lobby hit her face, she started to stir in his arms; she practically jumped out of his hold as she realized where she was and who was holding her. "Oh Mr. Jacobs, I told you I would be okay, you shouldn't have come to get me, I will be fine." Shayna tried to put up a brave front. "Shayna, I asked you to please call me Glenn," he said as he smiled showing her the cute little gap between his teeth, she thought he was so irresistible. She shook those thoughts from her head. "Ok Glenn but I really shouldn't be here, you are my client. What happened tonight was personal, I can't mix the two." Glenn looked into her eyes so blue and deep with longing. "Shayna, please let's just talk, nothing personal, just two acquaintances, talking." Glenn said as he thought back to when he saw Shayna's boyfriend out several times with different women but he never had the heart to tell her, but tonight, he figured that she had finally caught him, and the reality hurt worse than the lie. It hurt to see her this way but they were both two lonely hearts, trapped in the sands of time. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* He unlocked his room door, and she followed him in. His scent hit her and she was almost delirious taking him in. She felt secure there, but she was very capable of losing it all with this man, and that was not a possibility at the time. She walked over to the desk/living room area of the suite and she saw papers in different stacks, but on top she noted a very surprising, but upsetting document. It was legal size, and drawn up by somebody, somebody, & partner, but the main thing that burnt into her retinas were the words, DIVORCE CONTRACT. She gasped and then her mind was taken back to the reason she was in his hotel room in the first place. She then thought how glad she was to have found out now, not after they were married, that Brad was in it for Brad. Are you going to be okay? Glenn asked as he approached her and handed her a drink. Yes, its just hard to face, and now I have to go back and get my things. I cant look at him againit just makes me sick. Shayna said telling him more than she knew she should have. Glenn already knew though, hed watched Brad take girl after girl to the room as he waited in the lounge at nights. He also knew Shayna made Brad her world, she always talked about him, and how her new promotion would bring great things for them. Little did she know or had saw what Glenn had. Glenn became infuriated at the thoughts of her spending the late hours at the office while that scumbag had a free vacation and was free to have his hands on anything walking. Shayna stood there as she drank down the water, he had given her, it was refreshing, however she saw his face flash with emotions, he went from happy to sad, and to angryshe wondered what was provoking it. Shayna walked over to the king size bed and had a seat. Glenn stood in place a moment, staring off, lost in thoughts of how much pain that bastard had caused her. He then walked up beside the bed and stood over her looking down. He couldnt stand to see the pain running across her face, her eyes were red and puffy from all the crying and her brow was tight from the headache shed inflicted. I know its hard to face Shayna, but you are a lot better off knowing now. Who knows how long its been going on? Shayna you are beautiful person, you're bright, funny, and very captivating. You dont need him. Glenn was standing in front of her now, as she looked up at him from where she was seated, her eyes fell right into his sex, a shiver went up her spine, and she smiled up at him.

Glenn was looking down at her intently focused on the blonde curls and blue eyes that were so close to where he had thought of them being, many times. The loneliness of his life was starting to get to him, he hadnt been with anyone in months, other than an occasional blow job, his mind was always preoccupied with his divorce, so his body never got the attention it needed. Yes Glenn, I knowI just never imagined Brad would do this with that reply all notice of sexuality between them was gone and replaced by her fresh cries of pain. Glenn hurried to her side and took her into his arms, as they fell back on the bed, she once again cried herself to sleep, only this time, she had a shoulder to rest her head on. Glenn reached out with the arm that she wasn't laying on and pulled back the covers. As he slid his arm out from under her, he went to slide her under them, and then he realized that she would be terribly uncomfortable sleeping in her work clothes. His large awkward hands went to unzip her skirt, he tried hard to shimmy it down past her ankles, without waking her, and eventually he succeeded. He then started with the blue pearl like buttons on her blouse, one by one, until he had let out a deep breath, because there before him she lay covered in black lace, nothing more. He casually rubbed his hand down to his erection to smooth what he could down. There was no such luck, he was rock hard, and only a little self satisfaction could ease this torture. Before he tended to the pressing matters, he found a large T-shirt that he managed to get over her head and pull her arms through. He took one last look at his accomplishment and turned to leave the room. He left the small bedside lamp on as he slid the door shut behind him. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Glenn stood up to go to the bathroom, when he heard her whimpering in her sleep. He wanted to run to her but what if she woke up and he scared her, or worse what if she thought he was trying to take advantage of her. His compassion won out in the end as he cracked the door open, he called to her in the instance she may have awakened. He heard no response only her pain filled whimpers. Glenn walked to the opposite side of the bed and softly laid down on it; he reached out one of his muscular arms and laid it across her to comfort her. She stirred in her sleep and the whimpering stopped, he lay there watching her sleep. The moonlight flooded in the windows and highlighted her face and her blonde curls; she rolled over and was now face to chest with him. He looked down at the top of her head as it snuggled into his chest, she lay there sleeping peacefully, and shortly after he too drifted off. Morning came all too soon, he awoke with tiny rays of light in his eyes, he hated mornings, night time certainly suited him best. He was going to try to get out of there before she woke up but he tried to lift up and couldnt move, and then he opened his eyes, still heavy with sleep, and realized why he then could not move. She was still snuggled into his chest but she had somehow parted his legs and entwined hers there. Shit Glenn thought, this was not good, it was bad enough to wake up with him in her face than to wake up with him and his hardened cock in the place it was longing for. He squirmed a bit and no luck, he was completely trapped by her legs, and then he heard her slight moaning sigh. Shayna felt warm and was dreaming a wonderful dream when she started to wake up. She started rubbing her hands up and down Brads back, only it felt different, Brad was not this muscular, as Shaynas eyelids flickered open the reality hit. It wasnt Bradthen she was shocked to find Glenn staring back at her, also his hands had started to caress her, from her hips up to her back. Shayna pulled away in an instant reaction to the shock of what did or did not happen between them. Glenn, is all she could manage to say before his forcive lips crashed down on her delicate unsuspecting ones. They kissed as two souls longed to be with the other, that kiss bonded them together, and neither of them would ever be the same. Shayna tried to tap on his chest with her small hands and she kept beating on it in order to pull away, but then his continued exploration of her mouth, made her weak and she surrendered to him. After a couple of minutes, the kiss was severed by the need for air, and that left a moment of awkwardness between them. Shayna looked at him, as his arms still encircled her, and her eyes

pleaded with him for an explanation. Glenn had to think fast, for months hed let the faade of a wonderful life, but now he either had to come clean or push away the woman he longed for. Shayna, Im sorry, I didnt mean for that to happen. Glenn said covering his true feelings but only until she had a clear head, he knew that they couldnt build a relationship based on a rebound situation. Shaynas eyes were still wide from the kiss, shed just received, she always knew he tasted warm, and that he would put his heart into a kiss, his scent was intoxicating, and she was rendered speechless. Shayna, are you okay? I am sorry please believe that. Glenn said kicking himself as he thought of how he could now lose her. GlennI am f-f-ineI jus..just wasnt expecting that. It seems as if a restful night here with you made me forget the reality of my chaotic life. Shayna replied as she went to stand up and then looked down at herself and the oversized T-shirt she wore. Glenn had to beat her to the punch on this one, Shayna, I just took off your clothes so you would be more comfortable, nothing happened, I promise. His eyes pleaded with her. Shayna knew he was an honest man, so she took him for his word on that. Its okay, I appreciate you letting me stay here last night, and I hope that we can still maintain a business relationship together. I have to call my boss and get my things from the hotel, maybe I can oversee the person theyll bring in to work with you, and Ill see what the company says. Shayna, NO!!! Glenn exclaimed, I dont want to work with someone else, why would you do that? Shayna was shocked at his blatant tone of not working with someone. I just dont think I can stay here with all thats happened, God knows I cant sleep in that room again, I dont know how Ill even manage getting my things from there. Shayna, we can find you another room, I am sure if you explain it to your employer they will book you somewhere else, hell I will pay for another hotel if they dont understand. As for your things, why dont you let me go get them, or at least go with you? Glenn replied searching her storm filled eyes for the answer he so desperately needed to hear. Thoughts ran through her head so fast she could barely make a decision on what to do, let alone make it audible. Finally after a few minutes she looked at him and said, Okay, I must call Harry my boss, then we can go get my things, and Glennthank you. Shayna said as she bent over to pick her clothes up off of his suitcase where Glenn had placed them last night. Before she realized it, she had flashed him a shot of the black lace underwear that had driven him to torture the night before. Glenn took a deep breath and then pulled himself up to go order them breakfast. He heard the shower turn on and all sorts of naughty things entered his mind. He first thought of surprising her by entering the shower from behind and bending her over as the water caressed them both, then he thought of jerking the shower curtain aside as he grabbed her moistened body and sucked it dry. Easy big guy Glenn said to himself as he fought the impulse to act on his urges. He dialed room service and ordered them both a breakfast entre. Moments later she emerged from the bathroom her hair in a towel and the same clothes from the night before. Glenn had taken a shower in the extra bathroom of the suite, he feared that she would try to run out if he waited until after she got out. He stood in the living room with his wet mass of chestnut curls hanging down his back, as the tiny water droplets dripped from them, he had put on a crisp pair of black jeans, and still remained shirtless before her. Shaynas heart rate elevated quickly, she felt a lack of air, and the room temperature rise dramatically. She walked up behind him and he turned in time to see her standing there, a small part of him knew that she felt something for him, the kiss was shared not a singular act, and he was determined to have her. Hey do you mind drying my back off for me? Glenn said as he tossed her the towel before he could react. She swore he had that cocky little air about him sometimes, but she wouldnt deny the big man, not this simple pleasure. She dried his back off just as he turned to make his move, the doorbell rang and room service had arrived. Shayna laughed, it was funny of all the time she had worked with him, and shed never seen him like this. He was never the Casanova type, of course the whole time she had

known him she thought him to be happily married. Breakfast was eaten in silence, Shayna didnt have much of an appetite, knowing the impending events that were about to take place. She had spoken with her employer and the actually ordered her to stay with the account, they promised her another room by the next morning but that left her with no place to stay that night. She didnt mention it to Glenn but she would later, she didnt think she could control herself another night in bed with him. They were off to her old room and Glenn looked down at her and told her it would be okay. Shayna smiled but she knew deep in her heart, that it wouldnt be okay. Brad would expect her to just get over it and come back to him, she had no idea if she was strong enough to deny him, he had been her safe zone, her comfort zone for four years, and now her life was changing. She took the first step into the hotel room, where she saw the red wine still puddled on the floor, the glass scattered everywhere, and the door still wide open where she had run out. She gave Glenn a look and he stayed back at the door as she had asked him to. He gave her a reassuring smile as she slowly entered where she found Brad lying sprawled out in the bed with the sheet wrapped around him. Her stomach churned in disgust as he roused up upon her entry. So you decided to come back, youre too late, but we could have used you, I know I sure would have enjoyed two pieces of ass over one, and hell Hon you may have even made yourself a friend. I know she sure was friendly to me. Brad smirked knowing Shayna was a very private person and the thought of being with him another woman disgusted her. Shut up Brad, I am getting my things, and I am out of here. You have until eleven oclock in the morning to check out, do as you wish, oh wait you already have. Shayna smirked. Brad leapt off the bed and came crashing into her as her back hit the wall. He looked at her with onyx eyes and placed a hand around her throat. You cant leave me, you wont leave me. He threatened. Glenn heard the crash as he stepped over the mess of red wine and glass fragments. He entered the room as he saw Brads hand tightening around Shaynas throat and her face had turned begun turning blue but Glenn only saw red. He grabbed the coward by his neck much in the same fashion of his signature move the choke slam, and he held him there. Brad tried with all his might to kick or squirm out of it but Glenns force and strength were relentless. Shayna, get your things, and lets be gone. Glenn said as he carried the man high over his head to the living room. He made it to the entrance of the bedroom where Shayna had dropped the wine the night before and he threw the man in it hearing the loud sound Shayna jumped but she knew Glenn had things under control. She grabbed all her things and threw them in her suitcases, she had about five, considering she was staying so long. Glenn bent his tall frame and long legs down over the man that now lay in pain from glass shards and the impact of the wooden floor, Listen and listen closely. YOU will leave and you will NEVER contact Shayna again. The man almost dared to challenge the towering mass of muscle but he retracted even his breathing as he looked like a deer caught in headlights, surprised that Shayna had someone to defend her. This was not going the way he had planned for it to go. Glenn stared at the man for a minute, I didnt give you an option to consider, I said and you will go. NOW! Brad scooted his back across the wooden floor and felt the glass sticking in his back but he got up and ran out of the hotel. Glenn smirked. He was pleased with his results, usually so easy going but he had learned from the best on how to be a badass, his friend Mark Calaway. Shayna came out of the room dragging three suitcases as Glenn turned to look at her. She didnt know what happened but as long as he was okay, she didnt care. She even delighted in the fact that Brad had been the one to be intimidated not her. Glenn took her suitcases as she went for the other two. So where should I take you? Did your boss tell you were the new room would be? Oh not yet, I was hoping if you didnt mind too much I could leave my bags with you, and the rental is in Brads name so I assume he will take that. If you dont mind keeping them just for tonight, Ill

come over and get them in the morning. Shayna replied Wait but where will YOU sleep? Glenn asked giving her a stern look of concern. Shayna bit her lip, looking up at him through eyes as blue as the ocean, and she lowered her head as he looked at her intently. Thats it, you are staying with me, no ifs ands of buts. Glenn commanded. Shayna didnt like to impose, but she liked the strong protective side of this man. Another night, alone, alone with him, and the sounds of the ocean waves at their veranda door, the sand a footstep away, the night sky, stars glistening like diamondsand him. The rest of the evening was spent talking and they became a lot closer than either had expected. They discovered a lot of similarities between them, Shayna bit her lip as she wanted so badly to know the details of what he was going through. She had always thought he had it all, but the papers in the other room proved otherwise. He had picked them a pizza up on their way to the hotel. They were both so hungry, they stacked their plates full, and then sat with their legs stretched out on the living room floor. "Glenn," Shayna said as she sat her drink down. "Hmm..." He said as he stuffed his mouth full of pizza. "Glenn you know what happened with me, well with Brad and me, but what's going on with you? I don't want to pry but you seem like you had it all." Shayna asked searching his captivating blue eyes for an answer. "Shayna I don't know if it's possible to ever have it all...but I loved her, my wife that is, I never thought it would lead to this but it has. She couldn't stand the life, being alone, taking care of everything without me, we tried a hundred different things to make it work, and it just didn't. I am not perfect by any means and I have made my share of mistakes. I just wish I had someone to listen to my thoughts, feelings, and problems. Just someone to listen that cared, you know what I mean?" Glenn hung his head as he had so many times before, he just didnt understand the way his life was turning out. Shayna could tell that talking about this upset him, she placed her hand on his leg to comfort him, as he continued to talk. "After things weren't working, I distanced myself from everyone, my wife, my friends, I threw myself into work, I burned off all the pain through workouts and extra house shows. Anything to keep my mind from my misery." "I'm sorry, I had no idea, I didn't want to rehash any bad memories for you." Shayna said as she looked into his eyes, through her stray curls that hung in her face. She smiled at him, hoping to lighten the moment and take away the painful memories she inadvertently caused to resurface. Glenn sat his plate down and reached for her hand as he pulled her into his lap with the other arm. Shayna's chest was rising and falling rapidly, her heart rate sped up considerably, before she could think or consider what came next, he had covered her lips with his. He held the back of her head, as he slowly laid her back on the floor, and he came down on top of her. Shayna thought she was going to explode, 'Man did he put himself into a kiss,' She was longing for him, warm with desire to feel what else he gave his all to, she caught herself returning the kiss as someone long denied, and she wanted him with every part of her body. Glenn's hand ran up her side and under her shirt as he explored every inch of her. Shaynas hands explored his back and arms, their kiss deepening with each touch, their inner fires raging, as Shayna brought her legs up and wrapped them around him, and in that instant he was on his feet with her clinging to him. He destructively rambled through the suite as he knocked over the end table on his way to the bedroom. They never broke the kiss, as his shirt went over his head, hers hit the floor, he laid her on the bed as he slid her pants down, and scooted them off the edge with his leg. She was

fumbling with his zipper, her hands shakily trying to get his pants off. It had been some time since she had been with anyone other than Brad and she couldn't believe how nervous she was. Glenn stopped and stared straight into her eyes, he knew as much as he wanted her that he had to make sure that she was ready. He cursed his good nature in his mind, as he looked down at her. "Shayna, I would never hurt you but please if you don't want this, stop me now." Glenn said searching her face for an answer. Shayna's breathing was ragged and her body tingled for his touch, she was almost too delirious to even hear what he said. "Glenn, I want this, I want...you!" Glenn exhaled deeply at her confession and in an instant continued his torturous kisses to her neck and ears. He nuzzled her hair and then made his way to her chest He left hot trails all over her flesh wherever his lips touched her skin. She reached down and grabbed a hand full of his curly hair and entwined her fingers through it as he went down to the ache between her legs, he used his tongue to take her to the edge time after time. Glenn saw her agony as writhed and twisted but he refused to rush it, hed wanted her for a long time, and now he was going to make it last forever. He took her to the edge one more time as he rose up to meet his lips with hers. As he captured his breath with his, he entered her, she gasped within his mouth as he began moving his hips back and forth. Shayna placed her hands on his sides as she held to him, Glenn stared into her eyes the whole time he pleasured her, and as his movements grew faster and faster they both called out the other's name. As she shuddered from the orgasmic sensations, she felt him swell within her, in an instant he filled her with his warmness, and she arched to thrust him deeper within her as her fingernails grated down his muscular back. He rolled over on his side pulling her with him as he held her tightly in his arms. Together their breathing went from pants to slow satisfied purrs. Glenn leaned forward and kissed her ever so lightly on the forehead then he went for her lips as he nipped at them with his teeth. Shayna giggled as she floated her fingers across his face to land one on his lips, then she replaced her finger with her lips to his once more, in a kiss that sealed their fate. The rest of the night was spent in small conversations consisting of curious questions and little cutesy statements. Glenn had wrapped one arm around her and never moved it, Shayna clasped her hands together as she lay her cheek on them and faced him, he lay his head on the pillow facing her, and together they welcomed their dreams. The next morning came quickly as he was awakened by the phone ringing, he hurried to find it so it wouldn't wake her, and answered quickly. "Hello?" Glenn answered "Hello this is Harry Morgan, may I speak with Shayna Williams?" "She's unavailable at this time, can I take a message?" Glenn asked "Yes I am her boss, if you could have her give me a call in regards to her housing. The summer time is making it hard to find her a place, we may have to cut her assignment short, could you please make sure she gets the message, this is urgent." Mr. Morgan said as he disconnected the call. 'Not if I can help it Glenn thought' He took his cell phone and gathered the phone book, and went into the living room. He placed a couple of calls with no positive results, then finally the third time being a charm he got the results he wanted. He scribbled a note on a piece of paper, kissed her forehead, and

left the note on the pillow beside her. Shayna's eyelids fluttered as she rubbed the sleep away. She reached out to him as she came up empty but then her gaze found the piece of paper. She felt a sudden fear of what the words scribbled on it may say but she picked it up and focused her eyes on it. She read: *Shayna, I have gone out for my morning workout and I will bring some breakfast back. Thank you for last night, I promise to be back soon. Glenn* Shayna got up and rubbed her eyes sleepily, she found her suitcase and took out some of her clothes trying to determine what to wear. Glenn was on his way up in the elevator, smiling like a Cheshire cat, and hoping that this would work. He entered the suite and went to the bedroom, and heard the shower running. He had some wickedly delightful thoughts at that moment, but instead he opted to setup breakfast outside. The water ran down her almost cleansing her of all the bad things that she had been through. Her mind reflected on the thoughts of their time together, he was so gentle but so hungry, he had feasted on her, and he left her craving more of him. Then she thought about all that they needed to do with the biography and with her living situation, she knew she needed to talk to Harry. She cut the water off, she towel dried her hair, then put some gel in her curls, and slipped into the sleeveless dress, she had picked out. She had to get back to business, and looking the part would be half the objective to getting there, it was going to be hard but if he cared for her he would wait until they finished her part in the production of his book. Stepping out of the bathroom and walking into the living room she heard him call to her. "Glenn, where are you?" Shayna asked looking around as she heard his voice but didn't see him. As she peered around the corner into the other room, she suddenly felt two large arms encircle her and she fell back into them. "Good Morning" She said. "Yes it is, did you sleep well?" Glenn asked "Yes and you?" Shayna asked "Oh very well, I brought some breakfast back if you want to eat, and then we should talk. You look beautiful, back to work is it?" Glenn said Shayna gave him a puzzled look as he read her mind, "You know I was going to say that we needed to talk, you must have read my mind, and yes it's back to work." "Oh did I forget to tell you that I can read minds and that I can tell what you are thinking now? I would be glad to oblige your thoughts." Glenn said chuckling at her as she pinched his arm. "You big lug, you better watch it, you know what they say, the bigger they are the harder they fall." Shayna said as she looked up into those beautiful blue eyes. She faltered on her heels as he reached back to catch her. Before they were aware she was in his arms and they were engrossed in a passionate kiss. She was the one to finally break it. "We better eat." Glenn was puzzled at her reaction, "Sure it is getting cold." His brow tightened as he tried so hard to study her. They ate breakfast rather silently as he drew some giggles out of her. He loved the way she looked in her baby blue dress, sitting with her legs crossed, and her hair curls down around her

shoulders. They both finished around the same time, he looked at her and she looked at him, they both started to speak but he bowed his head to signal her to go first. Shayna looked deep into those eyes and she could see his loving heart shining through. "Glenn, I dont know how to say this so I will just be honest. I can't stay here with you and work on the book too. I have to have my own room to put my stuff in and a desk to work off of, the suite I had was perfect. Please don't take this personal, it's just that we have a work relationship and now...well now we've gotten involved." Glenn looked like he was going to cry as she got up out of her chair and bent down beside him. "Glenn" Shayna said. He didn't even want to look at her, his heart was breaking. "Glenn, I think you are taking me wrong here, all I am trying to say is that we have to get the book finished and I am asking if you will wait for me that am all. So, Glenn Jacobs will you wait for me?" Glenn cracked a smile, he was one to think the worst when these talks happened but this time, things were going to work. "Glenn, I just can't sleep with you and then get up to work. I don't have anywhere to work around here and it's hard to be in the same room with the one you have made love with and try to get work accomplished." Shayna added in as he still hadn't answered her. "Shayna I realize that, I wanted to talk to you because your boss called and it was very uncomfortable, it made me realize you do need some place of your own, but with compromise." Glenn replied "Oh Harry called, what did he say about my arrangements?" Shayna asked "Well I didn't like what he said, he mentioned there wasn't anywhere available for you, and that we would have to cut our time on the book short, and he could send someone else out at a later date." Glenn replied Shayna's heart was in her throat, she hadn't expected this. "Shayna, I don't want our time together to be short, even if it is purely a working relationship, I want every second of it to be eventful." Glenn said as he looked at her, "Shayna, I need to take you somewhere, can you get your things and be ready in about 15 minutes?" Shayna's mind was whirling with the news that their time together was being cut short. "Sure, I'll see you then." She replied zombie like as she went back into the bedroom to gather her things. They were driving down a section of the coast as they passed the ocean and he turned down into a driveway. Shayna had obligingly worn a blindfold. Glenn was proud of this and wanted her to be surprised as well. He guided her in to the house as he reached down to remove her blindfold. Her eyes took a minute to focus but then they revealed a beautiful interior of a house, oceanfront. She gasped noticeably as she looked at him. "Glenn?" is all she could manage to say. "Shayna Williams, this is for you, well for now. Its a place for you to work and sleep. There is even a desk and office upstairs in the loft Glenn rambled. Shayna looked at him as he rambled on, apparently nervous as she tilted her head to look upward, never had anyone cared this much about her. Glenn, thank you. Were the only words Shayna could

manage to speak. Glenn stopped his incoherent rambling and looked at her. She froze where she was standing, as he approached her, then lifted her up into his arms. They locked in a kiss that lasted for what seemed an eternity. Shayna was upstairs, unpacking and pressing her clothes, they had all been wadded up the night she left Brad, and she hadnt anywhere to put them until now. She smiled each time she thought of Glenn, there night together, each day they worked on his book, and she learned a new little piece to his life, her mystery man. The doorbell rang as Shayna jumped, Who can that be? Glenn has a key Shayna thought almost scared to move, she hadnt heard from Brad, since her boss called to tell her what hed done. Brad burnt all her stuff at their house, he took it out on the lawn, and had a bonfire. Bastardbut she was freeand things were replaceableher life however was not. She peeked through the peephole as the man stated he had a delivery for her. She slowly opened the door and took the small box, and the vase of roses. Opening the card, it was signed by Glenn, and this brought another smile to her face. They were going to meet later for dinner, of course she should be scared but of all the people to try and have a relationship with this guy was one for the keeping. Shayna sat the vase on the table and commenced to opening the box, where it revealed a two glass dolphins joined in a heart shape with an hourglass in the middle. It was so mesmerizing, the way the sands flowed through the glass, how so many thousands of pieces of sand, could flow together into one. Breathtaking she thought. Shayna noticed another smaller card and it stated, I have all the time in the world, for you. She was blown away. The rest of the day seemed to drag slowly by as she got settled into the house. It was evening time and she had fixed dinner and was waiting for Glenn to arrive. Evening soon turned to night, Shayna was worried so she walked out to the water and seated herself just barely above where the tide rested. Yes I know what the stipulations are, and I am prepared to meet them all, just do what is necessary to save my business. Glenns irritated voice came across the line, his lawyer had kept him on the phone for two hours, too long for he knew Shayna was waiting on him. His business was a supplement franchise, he had bought it while married and his wife Karen, helped to run it, and now claimed it was hers. Glenn, its all that she wants, minus sole custody of the girls where you had adopted them. Glenns lawyer stated. Oh no, not the girls. That woman Glenn was so tired of fighting, if he had to lose it all, he just wanted to move on with his life. Have the signed papers in overnighted here and you will be a free man. Glenns lawyer commented Glenn signed the papers and took one last look back at his life then threw the clasped envelope in the overnight tray at the concierges desk. He flipped through his keys, while he made his way to his vehicle, and more importantly to her. Shayna lay on the sand in her sheer dress, she hadnt planned on it getting very cool but being that close to the water certainly made a difference. She closed her eyes as she whispered in hopes Glenn was okay. Shayna knew where he was and what a hard time he must be having. She had his schedule from working so closely with him, she knew he had the phone conference with his lawyers earlier, and

she only hoped that he was doing okay. Moments later she was startled by a hand on her shoulder. Shayna jumped as Glenn landed in the sand beside her. He looked so gorgeous, black pants, the fitting grey V-neck shirt, and his hair was pulled back loosely in a ponytail. Her eyes shone up at him, even sitting he was so much taller, as he looked down at her, in an instant she had straddled him, and was looking into the deepest blue eyes you had ever seen. Are you okay? I was so worried. She hastily stated as his lips pressed up to hers, crashing into hers with such force she could feel their closeness, and how it aroused them both. He broke the kiss but only to place a hand on her cheek, I am fine, I had to close a chapter of my life, and now I want to open another one. Nothing mattered now to either of them but the fact that he was here, and they were together. Shayna reached down to pull at the corners of his shirt, peeling it off of him as her chest was pressed against his, and he felt her arousal for him. Glenn reached up to caress her swollen breasts, as she arched back, he brushed aside her dress, and then took one of her nipples in his mouth. She moaned out of longing for him, it felt damn good to have him touch her, and the more he sucked against her flesh the more she could feel him harden against the softness between her legs. They had stayed apart since their first night together a week ago, but now, now their passion could not be contained. Her sheer dress did nothing to keep them apart, she reached down sliding the zipper of his pants down, and worked her way through the button. He was caressing her hair with one hand and pulling at the dress with the other. Finally unclothed she straddled him, she had tightened since their last encounter, and her inner walls were clenching to his hardened cock. She was taking his breath away with every thrust downward until finally he could take it no longer. He flipped her over on her back into the moist sand as she felt it cool the fire that had replaced her flesh. The cooling effects mixed with his hip movements were intoxicating, she was delirious as she could only feel her cum trickling down her legs, and he was continually pounding into her. They rolled back and forth alone the sand, seemingly forever, they even wound up in the tide as it splashed up on them. Her hair was now soaked as his was damp, that never stopped them, until finally his pace quickened, and she began to contract against him. She cried out for him as she grabbed tightly to his shoulders, and with one final thrust he exploded within her. Glenn moaned deep from within his throat as he spoke her name. In their final spasms and chills of ecstasy they lay in one anothers arms, coated in thin layer of sand, wet from ocean water, and their love. They stare into one anothers eyes as the stars and moon shone down on the lovers in the sand. In one sudden, startling movement, he separated them as he held her in his arms, and carried her to the house. He reached into the shower and started the warm water with one hand, in the other arm he held her tightly against him, and her feet dangled to the floor. He pulled her into the shower as they rinsed the sands from their body, she lathered him with her favorite shower gel, the scent was arousing to him, and he returned the lather with his own to every part of her body. They were slippery against one another as they rinsed the soapy film and suds off of them. She went to step out as he reached out to touch her arm. He looked down at her and shook his head in disapproval, then took a towel wrapping it around his waist, then he wrapped one around her to get the excess water off of her, and carried her to the bedroom. The night seemed to last forever. Shayna got up after that bout of lovemaking and brought a small tray of food into the bedroom as they had an undercover picnic. She had lit candles that were conveniently placed earlier in her bedroom. He lay on his back, propped on his shoulders, as she lay

on her stomach with her head turned to him. Staring into each others eyes they were heavily sated. Shayna flashed a smile as he looked over at her and she stole a kiss to his parted lips. He began torturing her with kisses to her body, around her midriff which drove her crazy; he had her begging for mercy. Please Glenn, between giggles she pleaded with him, Glenn please, I cant take it, it tickles. He continued the torture as her face collapsed into the pillow from surrender. He rubbed her sides gently with his large textured hands as he placed a leg on either side of each of hers. He was straddle behind her as she felt him, she wondered if she could handle anymore, she was soon to find out as Glenn entered her from behind, placing his hands on her hips as he thrust her back into him. This was even more torturous than the kisses for the head of his cock now rubbed against her clit, in their position he was much deeper in her than ever before. This didnt last very long as she began to yelp and plead with him to please cum within her. She cried out as she grasped to the pillow now wadded up beneath her chin, his hands were clasping her breasts as she felt a warm sensation enter her, and he pulled her closer to him as he rolled over on his back. As morning dawned, she awoke with him cuddled up behind her. Shayna smiled basking in the events of the last night and closed her eyes as she huddled closer into him. Glenn stirred in his sleep as he threw a large arm over her, his hand conveniently fell on her breast and instinctively he started caressing it. She was in a half sleep state as she felt him circle the base of her nipple with his long finger. Shayna's lower body twinged as he started to arouse her more and more, he peeked at her through a squinted eye. Her body twitching, the chills running up her arms, and the curve of her round little ass. He finally decided to show that he was awake and by then very noticeably hard as he pressed against her from behind, then she finally turned to look into his beautiful eyes and mass of brown curls hanging down in his eyes. "Glenn Jacobs you are a bad man, do you know that? I see why they call you a machine." Shayna sarcastically teased him. "Mmm..." Glenn growled from his throat as he rolled her flat of her back and began to show her just how bad he could be. Three hours later covered in sweat and passion, they lay there side by side as his stomach growled and hers soon followed. "Time for lunch eh?" Glenn said as he leaned in to give her a kiss. After a short, cool shower, they managed to get dressed quickly, as they tried to keep their hands off one another, and head out for some lunch before the shoot. They were driving into the city today for a photo shoot for the biography's cover and insert. Lunch was hurried and then it was off to the photographer's studio. Glenn stood by as Shayna explained exactly what they needed for the cover and other shots she would like to see for the book. He watched her fervor and passion for her job, he couldn't help but get aroused, she turned him on all the time. Especially as he sat back and watched her work she made the Big Red Machine perk up. He squeeze his legs together then pivoted on his foot to wander off. He was after all only the model, and waiting to get ready to pose. "Glenn, oh no you don't! You are not going to wander off on me, you need to get your costume from the car, and meet me back at the studio." Shayna said winking as she slapped him on the ass, while she checked to make sure no one was looking. She drug her tongue across her bottom lip, "Now, I want to see this Kane that's supposed to scare me, because you Mr. Jacobs do not scare me." "Kane's pretty tough, I think he can take you." Glenn teased her back

"Only if he can resist my charm and seduction." Shayna said winking back at him. Glenn made his way to the dressing room as he transformed to Kane. He chuckled as he thought of her and their time together. Shayna was directing the photographer on a few things when suddenly she lost his attention; he turned pale and looked past her. Shayna laughed nervously as she turned around, "What's wrong? You look like you have seen a ghost." He didn't even bother to answer he just pointed to the big man behind her. Shayna turned to see a very intimidating Glenn behind her. She hadn't been a fan of wrestling so she really didn't know who he was before she met him. She had checked a couple of shows out because she knew she was going to work with him, she had hoped she wouldn't seem totally clueless on his profession. "You are very intimidating but you don't scare me." Shayna said with an air of confidence. Kane stood before her looking back, his freshly showered smell, the barely there outfit with flames and lots of mesh, those arms, and then that white contact, she was a little intimidated by Kane but she knew that those arms where the ones that held her tight at night, had taken care of her in her time of need. She just smiled and said over there big guy, as she directed, he made it of great importance to stay in character. He gave her a head tilt then went to sit under the lights. The session seemed to last hours, but in all actuality only and hour and a half. He was headed to change as Shayna followed him. He pulled her into the room with one of his muscular arms curled around her waist. He carried her over to a chair placed in the room for dressing. Glenn pressed her into the seat and lunged forward into her face as she cowered back a little. Shayna sat there staring at him, he looked her deep into her eyes before he spoke, "You've been with Glenn, now honey it's time to be Kaned." He lifted up the mask enough to take his tongue and leave hot trails down her neck and chest. Button by button he hurried his way through, he needed her, hell he wanted her...now! He pulled his straps down as he pulled her out of the chair and into his arms. He laid her on the floor as he pressed his lips forcively to hers; she was absolutely lost in him. He pushed her skirt up to her waist as his massive hands tightly slid against her thighs. Shayna was on fire, and her body writhed at every little touch he contributed. He began torturous strokes back and forth between her legs until she was begging him to take her. She kissed him hungrily as he denied what she wanted and continued to torture her. Just as he took her to the edge he stopped, and then repeated his actions. Faster and faster his fingers jolted back and forth. She couldn't take it any longer; she threw her head back, and moved it side to side hastily begging for his loving. He kept refusing to enter her until he saw her back arch, then placing his hands underneath her back, he thrust himself in her. "Oh KANE!" Shayna screamed out as he began to buck his hips back and forth, he felt her release as her body spasmed beneath his, he kept his hands on her hips not allowing her to move. Her shouts continued as his pace quickened. Deeper. Harder. Faster. "Shayna" he growled as his warm release came and she brought her hips up to meet his. They embraced and as they dressed quietly Shayna watched him and admired his body. She then walked over to him and took a towel and cleaned the black makeup from under his eye. She stroked back and forth until she revealed the man she was without a doubt head over heels in love with. She wanted to say it but after all they had been through? They walked quietly out of the studio, a few giggles from some of the assistants and they were off. Time was flying by for them, they spent most of their nights together but some were apart, deadlines

for the book was approaching. Shayna was sitting on the beach in her favorite reclining chair when he pulled up. He went straight into the house not even seeing her in plain view. Then he made his way out to her. He looked horrible, he was so stressed, when he was like that it always showed on his face, his brow line tightened and he seemed preoccupied, that much she had noticed in their time together. "Glenn, honey, what's wrong?" Shayna asked getting up and walking over to him, she hugged him and received a slight hug back. She pulled away and looked into his eyes, "Glenn are you alright, tell me what's going on." "I have to go home for a week or so. I have to go and close up the business and get rid of the inventory, the divorce has been finalized but I can't leave you. I don't want you to stay by yourself." He said as he looked off into the sand, she could see the wheels turning in his head, and was wondering what exactly he was planning. "Glenn I'll be fine, don't let me be the cause of the stress you are going through right now, it's been weeks, Brad is gone for good, he won't come back." Shayna reassured him "I guess you are right but I would feel better with someone staying with you." Glenn replied "Well I can call Sonya, I haven't seen her since before I left, she's probably wondering why I haven't come back if Brad has ran into her." "Well that's better than you being alone but I wished you had someone to protect you. Damn Shayna, I wish I could take you with me but it's just not possible. I don't want to subject you to my ex-wife or anything she may do either. This is killing me; I just want it all to be over." Glenn replied "I know honey, I know. Everything will be okay. Come on, let's go inside and I'll give you a rubdown, then I'll call Sonya to see if she can fly in." Together they walked hand in hand to the house as he lay on the couch. Shayna straddled his back as she began to put her magic fingers to work kneading and massaging those taut muscles beneath her. As she continually massaged his back and neck his moans grew louder and louder. He grew harder and harder for her as her warmness was pressed against the small of his back. Every now and again as she moved to get one side massaged he could feel her rub against him. This was agony, his problems had been forgotten for the time being but he now had a new one. Just how could he flip over without dumping her off of him? Shayna stood up to stretch her legs that had fallen into the crack of the couch as she massaged him. Shayna moved overtop of him to reclaim her place on his back, as she did Glenn flipped over very stealthily, but carefully grabbing her hips as she landed rather stiffly on the hardness of his crotch. Her eyes grew wide as she stared down at him, she felt his desire, but she was going to have her fun with this, she slowly stuck her tongue out where it was barely visible and drug it across her lips in a circular motion. Glenn rocked his hips beneath her, as she pressed inward, so she would not be thrown off top of him, and she gave him a sly smile. Shayna started running her fingers over his bare chest, Glenn reached to pull them lower but she smacked his hands. "No, no, no! I am in charge here, just relax and enjoy." Glenn tilted his head back and closed his eyes. Shayna proceeded to rub him all over stopping above his pants and picking up at his thighs. "Oh your calves are tense, they need massaging, let me get those pants off of you." Shayna teased as Glenn shivered with desire to take all of her. "Those pants are the only thing protecting you little lady, be careful what you ask for." Glenn replied

"Oh, I am not afraid of the almighty Kane. You are forgetting, I know all your secrets, as a matter of fact, I wrote the book on it." Shayna sarcastically replied. Glenn grinned and laid his head back on the couch. Shayna began sliding his pants off as she brushed them down over his ankles, pulling his underwear with them, she then took a glance upward, she felt her nipples tighten with desire for the beautiful body before her. She dropped the pants in the floor, as she ran her body up the length of his, she began kissing his neck. Kiss after kiss until she reached his stiffened member. She avoided it with her kisses but dipped forward ever so lightly to lick the juice of his desire, only to torture him more. He grabbed at her and she lid down lower out of his grasp as she began her kisses to his thighs, and finishing off with his calves. Suddenly she thrust herself onto him, before either could gasp at the intensity of the pleasure they felt when their bodies connected, their lips were pressed tightly together capturing their breath. Shayna rocked back and forth quickly against him, they need to forget everything that haunted them, his divorce, Brad, the book deadlines, just everything. Two bodies one primal instinct, their bodies hungered for the other, the sweet feelings of release. Glenn placed his hands on her hips and pressed her onto him harder and harder as they kept with the rhythm of the motions. Glenn had begun thrusting her harder as she arched her back and tossed her head back, he felt the flood of her release against him, and the pressure was too much to bear. With one final stroke he exploded within her as she spasmed against him, still feeling the orgasmic release from his thrusts. They lay there coupled as their hearts raced and she slowly turned her head up to face his eyes. Glenn had been with a few women but never had he felt the desire that he felt with Shayna, he constantly longed to repeatedly claim their body as his own. Shayna looked at him and watched his blue eyes darken as she felt him stiffen inside the walls of her inner being. She smirked as he read her mind; he grabbed hold of her and carried her to the bedroom, never breaking the connection. They gave in to one another time and time again, each time reaching new heights of orgasm. For the first time they felt freed and the problems of the world no longer weighed them down. They spent the whole night sharing their passion. Shayna rolled over as the morning sunshine greeted her, and she saw the giant of a man sleeping next to her. Smiling she walked to the living room to call her dear friend Sonya. Sonya of all people knew what it was like to be with her share of losers, one bad relationship after another, seemed to be all she could find. Shayna held the line as she checked the clock. "Perfect" Shayna thought "Hello..." A groggy voice answered. "Sonya? It's Shayna." Shayna paused waiting for the reality to strike Sonya. "Shaaaaaaaynnnnnaaaa!" Sonya screamed bolting upright in her bed. "I couldn't find you, your work refused to give me any details, Brad just gave me a bunch of lies, and I was so worried I would never see you again. I have been completely lost without you." "Nah, Sonya, I'm alright, super actually. Listen, I was wondering if you could come spend some time with me?" Shayna asked biting her bottom lip in hopes that Sonya would oblige. "Sure when?" Sonya replied. Sonya didn't have a job to worry about, so taking off at the drop of a hat was easy for her. Things hadn't always been easy, it was just recently since she had received an inheritance that came from a rich Uncle that had passed away, could she be so carefree.

"Of course I can and Shay, I have soooo much to tell you." Sonya replied as they both giggled in excitement of the impending reunion. They made plans for Sonya's arrival. The day had come for Shayna to see Glenn off and pick Sonya up at the airport. She lingered in Glenn's arms as long as they could until the final passenger call. Through tear stained cheeks, her mouth formed the words "I love you" as he took one last look back at her, and then turned to go. Glenn boarded the flight with a heavy heart and thoughts abound in his head. He had always thought of Shayna and wanted to see what it would be like to be with her. They had a relationship but he wondered how long term it was. He closed his eyes underneath the dark shades and tilted his head back for the flight to where he used to call home. A loud squeal came from one of the gates opposite the one Glenn had departed from. Shayna would recognize that squeal anywhere. Before either lady could look around the where in one another's arms, jumping up and down in sheer delight. Best Friends reunited. Brad stepped into the lounge, it had only been a few weeks since they had parted but he knew that Shayna would be his again. All he had to do was eliminate the big guy. Now with him on his trip, was the perfect time to make Shayna his but first, he needed to satisfy his wants of a warm body entwined with his. He approached a long legged brunette as he whispered sweet nothings in her ear, she was on his arm in a minute, and off to his hotel. Glenn arrived at the airport where he paid for his rental and slowly began to reenergize himself from the flight. He thought he would rest up, and then go see his ex-wife, and package up the inventory from his business. He had contacted the man he bought it from and had already made a deal to resume with new products after the divorce settlement. He settled into his hotel and as soon as his large, awkward body hit the bed, he slipped off to sleep quickly. Sonya and Shayna were giggling the whole trip home as they blasted the new Creed song, "One Last Breath" they laughed as they drove down the coast. They settled into the beach house moments later with a pizza, a 12 pack, and some movies. Five beers later they were far from aware that morning was approaching. As they danced around finally hitting the floor they passed out where they landed. Glenn was dreaming happily as he thought of Shayna and rolled over to pull her close into him as he always did in the morning. He reached out for her, when his arms came up empty; he bolted upright in the bed, looking around for her. His heart was racing at when he found her not laying next to him, then the realization came to him where he was he was. The look in Brad's eyes from the night he took Shayna out of there still haunted him, he knew that Brad would be back, that's the reason he didn't want her alone. He had let protecting her become his objective, he'd even forgotten his friend, "That's it. Mark...he can protect her." Glenn hastily grabbed for the phone, knowing that the big man on the other end wouldn't refuse, and knowing that it would put his mind at ease. "Yeah." A gruff annoyed voice said to Glenn as he answered the phone. "Well I see you are in your usual demeanor, annoyed my friend?" Glenn remarked as Mark Calaway picked up the phone. "Well damn, if I didn't know any better I would think that was my colleague that has been MIA for months, so tell me what do you need from the Deadman?" Mark replied Glenn just smirked knowing that Mark Calaway the man better known to the wrestling world as the

Undertaker, even Taker nowadays could always be counted on. "Ah is that anyway to treat your own flesh and blood?" Glenn joked as in their storyline they were brothers, even though they were no blood relation, life had thrown them some curves they worked through together. Since then they were as close as you could get without the DNA. Mark listened as his friend explained the situation and the new lady in his life. Mark only hoped for his friend's sake that she was the real deal, that wife of his gave him every last one of those spriggy little gray hairs he had in his head. "Okay, so Shayna is this chick's name...the address...oh and you said I had to play nice right?" Mark sarcastically teased his friend. "Yeah or you'll have hell to pay." Glenn threatened as he let out a deep sigh, thanking heavens that now she would be protected. There was no one he trusted more with his life or hers than Mark Calaway. They disconnected the call as Glenn told him he would see him in a few days. He picked up the phone and dialed Shayna's number to inform her of another guest. "What the hell is that annoying noise?" Sonya shouted over to Shayna as she fumbled around looking for the phone. "The phone Sonya lay back down." Shayna shouted as her head pounded, it had been awhile since she had drank and now she felt ill at the thought of the alcohol she had consumed. "Hello" Shayna whispered. "Shayna, my god what's wrong, are you okay?" Glenn went into a panic, he knew she never slept that late. "Yeah hi baby, I'm okay. I just stayed up a little past my bedtime is all, and I drank too much." Shayna replied as she hoped to avoid a lecture from him by asking, "Did you make it okay, how are things going?" "Yes the trip was fine and so am I. Shayna, what's going?" Glenn asked her as he was getting upset with her for letting her guard down. Then he thought, well I can't blame her, she thinks Brad is gone and she has nothing to fear, how could he be the one to put fear in her? "Sonya and I were just catching up on old times and things, we're okay honey. I promise." Shayna replied. "Okay Shay, I didn't mean anything I just wanted to make sure you were okay. I have something to tell you." Glenn continued on as he heard her voice get higher and higher as she kept telling him no, no, no. "I refuse to argue with you, the plans have been made, there is no breaking them now. I love you Shay, I will call you back later." "Glenn...don't you dare." With that statement he had disconnected the call and Shayna was fuming. "Okay so what is it Shay? Since I am so obviously not going to get to sleep in, what's up with your boy toy?" Sonya sat down next to her on the couch where Shayna was fuming mad, she scrunched her eyes together, thinking of what Glenn had done. "I know he's protecting me but he's arranged for one of his friends to come here and stay with us. Where am I going to put him? He said they call him Taker or something, great all I need is some Casanova wrestler thinking he's doing his pal a favor and I deserve to repay him. Glenn talks very highly of him and he is all through the biography but I still don't like it." Shayna spat, she was mad enough to spit nails.

"Hey Glenn seems like a great guy, maybe he's right, you never know Brad could be around." Sonya calmed Shay as she had begun tapping her foot in disgust. With a tilt of her head and a small grin she realized that Sonya was right, Glenn was only looking out for her, and if it gave him piece of mind she was thankful for that too. Brad watched as the two ladies moved around the small beach house and thought of the perfect plan that would take affect at night, that night as a matter of fact. Sonya and Shayna both showered up and where headed out for shopping, when they heard a loud roaring noise coming down the driveway. They walked out to the front to see one of the most amazing sites they had ever feasted their eyes on. "I bet he's seven foot tall...and you know what that means." Sonya whispered to her friend as the man was starting to stand up. Shayna stood there in her red t-shirt and jeans, with Sonya by her side, and this man before her. He was so tall, he had his hair long hair in a braid along his back, very dark sunglasses, a black t-shirt, and some very fitting blue jeans. Mark looked at both the ladies and smirked inward, thinking this would be fun. He knew right away which one she was, he always had the eye for Glenn's type, the blonde, with legs that extended up to her neck, the innocent blue eyes, and her curves were made for the hands to follow. Then there was her dark haired friend, with the dark chestnut eyes, and the ample chest that tight little white shirt did everything for, and the black leather pants drove him wild. "Damn, saluting already, it has been too long for this Deadman." Mark cursed himself, he reached up to take off his shades as he walked up to the ladies, and looked down at them. Sonya was silent, as was Shayna as they looked up into the deepest green eyes they both had ever seen. The ladies were in awe of the man before them. Shayna collected her wits as he stared down at her. "Hi there, you must be Mark." Shayna said extending her hand to him. "Glenn said I should be expecting you." "Yes I'm Mark. Did I catch you at a bad time?" Mark replied "Nope we were going out for some shopping and lunch, care to join us?" Shayna replied "Damn," Mark thought, "Shopping" "Well I don't care to go shopping but I am hungry, the ride in was a long one." He said with the slight drawl to his tone. "Well Mark, let me open the door for you and show you to your room, then you can join us...or if you would rather rest, you can. I think if Brad is here he wouldn't do anything in public, he would hit me where it would hurt the hardest, and that's here, my home." Shayna felt that Brad was out of her life for good and there was no threat. Glenn on the other hand had some investigating done on his background and he knew that Brad wasn't the type to give up so easily. "Listen, I don't know your ex-old man but never put anything past a man when his pride has been wounded, he may decide that public is the best place to put you in your place." Mark replied I know Glenn said you would hate having someone here but just let me stick to the shadows and you do your own thing, that way I am here if something should happen and if it doesn't then everything will be fine."

Brad returned to the motel room he rented, just in time to miss the large man's arrival. He had the gun he'd bought, the tape, the rope, the kerosene, matches, and a black sack to carry them in. He had to be precise, very precise to make her pay. "Pay Shayna and pay you will. You can't quit me." Brad laughed evilly. He had laid out the plan to take Shayna and Sonya out, "Interfering witch, you should have not come here." He snarled Mark was less than thrilled to go shopping but he was a good sport, staying incognito from fans as much as possible. They were tearing through the stores, "They walk too damn fast." Mark thought. Finally they stopped for lunch as they were talking Sonya brought up the tattoo of the woman's name on Mark's throat. "Just another bad memory." Mark replied as his eyes darted back and forth between the two ladies. He slipped his sunglasses on as he stood up, "I'll be right back." He commented Shayna had heard of a Mark and Sara and how things went downhill pretty much their whole relationship, but she never said a word to Sonya. She finished her meal and paid the check as they waited on Mark to return. Mark returned to the table, he was ready to leave, it was getting dark, and he didn't want to enter the house after hours, especially since he didn't know what was waiting on them. They were on their way home as Shayna brought up the new man in Sonya's life, Sonya, you have yet to tell me all about Eric." Sonya could talk about Eric for days, he had been there when her life fell apart, and he never walked out when things got tough. Sonya began talking about Eric, talking about how wonderful he was, and Shayna smiled. "Sonya you deserve someone to be good to you, after all the other jerks you had. They never knew what a great person they were missing." Shayna commented, "Isn't it great to be so happy?" She said as a wide smile took over her face. "So tell me about Glenn, I have never seen you so happy as when you talk about him." Sonya didnt even think about Mark riding in the car with them before she asked Shayna about Glenn. Shayna's face drained as she checked out the rearview for Mark's expression. She smiled slightly and he just tilted his head back in acknowledgement of her, and then gave her a slight nod to go ahead, he knew what she was thinking. He knew that she feared he would tell Glenn, this would be interesting to hear, at the least. "Sonya, Glenn isn't like any other man, I don't even think if you cloned him that it would turn out exactly the same he's perfect." Shayna started out then went on to tell about the night that Brad had cheated on her. They lost themselves in talk while Mark sat in the back of the Yukon, just mentally giving Glenn hell for being such a Romeo but seeing why he cared for her. Shayna was very loving and caring about others. "I'll tell you more later, ok?" Shayna said to Sonya, not really wanting to go into the details of their passion in front of Mark.

They arrived at the house, laughing, and enjoying themselves fully. "Oh I am so tired, I think I will drop these bags and go to bed. Neither lady was thinking anything was out of the normal until Mark caught their attention and shot them both a look that hushed them quickly. He had seen a suspicious car parked on the side of the road before the driveway, that was his first suspicion but now he noticed the gate to the path was swinging back and forth, and he knew he had shut it when they left. He whispered instructions to them as they walked up the pathway taking note of their surroundings, he snuck around to the back. The ladies entered and Sonya went to her room and laid her bags down and checked out its hiding places, nothing. Shayna shakily went to her room, she felt cold, her arms had goose bumps, but slowly she entered her room. She was part of the way in when something struck her in the head and knocked her out. As her world faded she thought of Glenn. "Hah you silly bitch, I told you I wouldn't let you go, now it's payback time." Brad sneered. "Where's your boyfriend now?" Sonya heard a thud as what she assumed to be Mark knocking out whoever was there as she began to walk upstairs, but then a hand clamped over her mouth. She was going to kick her leg back in attempt to take out whoever her captor was, but he whirled her around to face him just in time. "Don't say a word, he's here. I found tracks out back and some pretty deadly things, kerosene, some handcuffs, and more. Walk up the steps and call for Shayna then turn to go to the office beside her bedroom, he's more than likely occupied with her in the bedroom." Mark instructed. Sonya nodded her head as she did as she was told, when she stepped over to the direction of the office, Mark positioned himself behind the door, as he turned the knob so it would appear that Sonya was coming in Shayna's bedroom. Brad cursed under his breath as he dropped Shayna's legs to the ground where he was dragging her to the bed. He approached the door as it swung open he swung the pipe in his hand forward, and then was caught off guard by no one there. Just what Mark had planned, as the man tilted forward he grabbed the pipe from his hands and began beating him. After several hits to the back of his head, he blacked out, and fell unconsciously to the floor. Sonya ran in to check on Shayna who had blood running down the side of her head, but she seemed to be semi-conscious. "Shay can you hear me?" Sonya asked Shayna didn't respond, she only moaned for Glenn. "Damn, Mark she needs help badly." Sonya called out. "Dammit!" Mark cursed as he held Shayna in his arms. Sonya had reached to call 911 and Mark yelled for her not to. "Don't? Why the hell not?" Sonya exclaimed. Mark was thinking fast, he'd seen this situation too many times. She could go to the hospital and they would arrest Brad but he'd get out and be back for more. He knew it had to end, but how without

them all being brought up on murder charges. He thought as he looked at Shayna moaning in pain. "Sonya, get some things to take with you, grab some of Shayna's clothes and her briefcase, and get her to the hospital. Take my cell phone, and even if they discharge Shayna tonight, do not come back here until you hear from me." Mark commanded as Sonya ran around the room reaching for a duffel bag and some clothes for her and Shay. "Mark why? What are you going to do?" Sonya questioned. "I am going to resolve this situation for good, so my friend can be happy with the woman he loves." Mark replied as Sonya stared at him in questioning. He carried Shayna out to the car and made sure that she was in safely and then they threw the bags in the back. Sonya took Mark's phone as she flew out of the driveway. Mark walked back into the house where they had bound Brad with some rope that he so graciously provided. He had stopped at his bike and took out some black leather gloves he had for riding in colder climates, then he busted some windows, then he started turning furniture over, and breaking pictures and dishes. He went upstairs where Brad was still knocked out and breathing very shallow. Mark then walked downstairs and checked out the inventory Brad had brought with him. Seems like Brad would taste the wrath he intended for her. Sonya pulled up at the hospital, as an orderly helped her get Shayna out of the car, and rush her inside. They took her back immediately and began checking her for massive head injuries, internal bleeding, and possible concussion. The staff had begun to question her about what happen and she started a crying fit, adding a hyperventilation scene into it, until Mark called her with details. She had no idea how long she could keep them from wanting a story. Mark put Brad in the bedroom upstairs then checked to make sure there was no chance he would wake up. He doused the bedroom, down the stairs, and the border of the house with the kerosene provided by Brad, then struck the match as he hopped on his bike and drove off a distance. He pulled it over down the road a ways and entered the dark recesses of the brush to watch the end of all the chaos. He watched as the beach house was completely engulfed in minutes. He heard the sirens after about 20 minutes at which time the house was nothing but ruins. He started his bike and drove down to the busier area of town and prepared to call Sonya. "Hello," Sonya said at a long pause. "Are you crying?" Mark's deep commanding voice came across the line. "Yes it's been a rough night. Is everything okay honey?" Sonya said as eyes had turned to her direction when the cell phone rang. "Oh the cops are there? Listen, everything happened just as it did before you left but as you fought to keep Brad off of Shayna, you hit him with a pipe, then by the time you escaped with Shayna, the fire had made it's way up the steps, got it?" Mark instructed. "Yeah I got it. I'll call you back later okay?" Sonya said instructing Mark to call her with the encrypted message. "Yeah, I'll call soon. Stick with everything I said, don't change it at all. Take care of yourself, you,

Shayna, or Glenn have nothing to worry about." Mark replied as he hung up the phone and proceeded his way to the bar. Sonya covered for the call and falsely calmed her breathing and tears to start with their alibi. She told of how Brad had hit Shayna and then she came behind him with the pipe and grabbed Shayna and hurried out of the house that had been taken with flames. The officer had called the fire department and they indeed confirmed the blaze had taken the house, but there weren't any survivors. The police spoke some more with Sonya and asked her to stick close in case there were any further questions. The doctor finally gave Sonya clearance to see Shayna as she entered the room, Shay had actually sat up but was still on a lot of pain medicine and had her head heavily wrapped up. Sonya stayed with her in the room because they wanted to observe her overnight. Sonya stretched out on a recliner as she slept thinking of how the night had gone to hell. She wasn't sure just what Mark had done but could she live with it if she knew? Mark rented a room at Hampton Inn and made a call to Glenn to let him know Shayna had been hurt. "She's fine now. Don't worry Sonya is with her." Mark reassured him. Then he instructed Glenn that he didn't know where Mark had been the past few days, and that was that. Glenn agreed without knowing what had happened and made plans to fly in the next night. Glenn hung up his phone but he couldn't help but worry about her and just what was up with Mark. As soon as Mark disconnected the phone, he laid back and entered a dead sleep. He slept most of that day in hopes to get in contact with Sonya later that evening. Shayna woke with one hell of a headache as she slowly opened her eyes to see Sonya sleeping next to her. "Sonya" she whispered, her throat was dry, and she could barely speak. Sonya had been restless all night and even though she hadn't heard Shayna say her name, she woke up. "Shay thank god, you are alright, do you know where you are?" Sonya asked "Yeah hospital, Brad?" Shayna said Sonya went to the sink and got her a cup of ice water. Slowly she sipped as Sonya told her what happened. Shayna had no recollection of anything after Brad hit her. Sonya following through with Mark's plan, knowing this would make it much easier, now that Shayna had no clue as to what was or wasn't reality, and now it was all gone up in flames. She smiled her own little wicked smile as thought of Brad getting what he deserved after all he'd done to them and her best friend. "Brad is dead honey." Sonya said waiting for her friend's reaction. Shayna didn't say a word but looked puzzled at Sonya. "Yes he attacked you and was going to kill you, or so he said, then I hit him with the same pipe he whacked you with, then I grabbed you as I ran down the stairs, to find the house was on fire, I put you in the car, and I never looked back." Sonya told her as it all sunk in. Sonya hugged Shayna tightly as Shayna shed a few tears over what had happened, and to think she

would have died had Sonya not been there. Maybe she should have listened to Glenn and let his friend Mark come and stay with them. Later that night, after a day's rest, Mark packed his bike up as he proceeded to call Sonya. He gave her instructions on where to meet him after they checked in. He knew by checking in that morning it would only further his alibi that he had not arrived in town until that morning. Sonya took Shayna newly discharged from the hospital and checked into the Holiday Inn as instructed. She saw Shayna to bed then went out to meet Mark. She carefully made her way to the back of the bar as she snuck out its back door. Mark was there waiting on his bike as she handed him his phone he instructed her to get on. "Mark I can't ride that thing." Sonya protested. "Get on, I promise I'll take care of you." Mark commanded as Sonya slid in behind him then placed her hands around his waist. He drove until they were far enough out of town to the outskirts with the forest areas and heavily saturated brush. He slowed the bike as it came to a stop in a wooded area. "What are we doing here?" Sonya exclaimed. "I wanted to talk to you...about last night." Mark said looking into her deep brown eyes. "Listen, you don't know what happened and its best you don't but I do want you to know that I..." Mark was interrupted by her cold glance. "That you aren't a murderer?" Sonya said. "Jesus Mark, I know you didn't kill Brad but what you decided to do may have, but it doesn't matter. It was kill or be killed, he came there with intentions of hurting or killing Shayna. You don't have to make me think any differently of you, that you took care of your friends, and I respect that. Now I am not saying that I approve of handling every situation like that but this particular one was necessary." Sonya burst out. Mark couldn't believe what he was hearing. He hadn't wanted her to think badly of him but it was like she read his mind. He watched as she supported her argument and he started looking at her, really studying her, and letting his eyes feast on her. She was wearing a black T-shirt with tight fitting jeans, and she had beautiful sparkling eyes. Her natural curls fell to her shoulders and as she spoke he just became adamant to taste her lips. As soon as she finished her sentence he pulled her back onto the bike between his legs as her elbows rested on the handlebars. She felt his desire, he was a man long denied, and she was the object of his passion. Mark curled his long fingers through her belt loops and slid her crotch into his pelvic area as he felt the heat between them. His lips came crashing down on her as their hands roamed one another freely. He began unfastening her pants as he pulled her closer to him, her hands found his zipper, and released his hardened manhood. She looked down at him as he throbbed with desire and she saw the beads forming at the tip. She surprised him as she grabbed at him and thrust the length of him in her mouth. He held her head as his eyes rolled back in his head and his chest heaved with intense satisfaction. Sonya continued her torture until he could no longer take, as he pulled her lips to his, then he took her exposed waist and thrust it to his, as he entered her, he leaned back on the bike to enjoy. He dominated most of the action, as his hands clamped onto her hips, and he grinded her against him then up and down.

The forceful grinding took Sonya to the edge as she felt her body shake and shiver as she released against him. He sat up as she released and encircled her body with his large biceps, holding her until she came down off of her sexual high, and then with a few more thrusts he began to feel the pressure building. Mark thrust deeply into her one last time as she felt the warmth of him inside her. Heavily sated, short of breath, and exhausted from their coupling they sat on the bike as she leaned back against the handle bars. Mark leaned forward as he placed a kiss on her stomach and then turned his head to lay it on her stomach. Sonya ran her fingers through his auburn hair as it dangled around her body, tickling her senses, as she closed her eyes and felt the breeze around them. "Sonya, go back home with me, let's start something, we could be great together." Mark asked Sonya's heart was breaking already, she really didn't have any feelings for Mark, after what had just happened, she knew that she needed to go home, and be with who she did love. "Mark, I can't. We could be...a lot of things but I am in love with Eric, I can't start a relationship with you." Mark knew before he had tried she couldn't be tied down but he had at least tried. They situated their clothing and he started the bike as they rode back to the bar, he dropped her off, and as he kissed her one last time, he smirked. "At least they had enjoyed themselves," He thought, with all that had happened in the past few moments, he had gotten some and she made him realize, "It's time for a brand new start." Sonya returned to the hotel to find Glenn in the room with Shayna, she straightened her clothes a bit and came in to meet him and talk about what had happened. Shayna, well I see you have your prince charming with you. Hi Im Sonya, its a pleasure to finally meet you. Hello I am Glenn, I am so thankful you were with her, I owe you my life because had anything happened to her, I wouldnt be able to live without her so I am indebted to you. He smiled softly and nodded as he confessed to her. Glenn, you dont owe me anything, all that youve done for Shayna and to see her finally happy, thats what I take delight in. Sonya replied smiling back at him. Ill leave you two alone, I think I am going to have a drink and then I am going to catch a flight home soon, so I will need to come back up and pack. Leaving so soon, I was hoping you would stick around while Shayna recovers, she could use a friend. Glenn urged her to stay on with them. I dont think so Glenn, I think now that you are home, Shayna has what she needs but perhaps Eric and I could come out and visit you two soon. Sonya replied. Hey you are talking like I am not even in the damn room. Hello injured girlfriend here Shayna spoke up, they could tell she was feeling better when she started giving them hell. Sorry Shay just got caught up, listen I am going to go get a drink, Ill see you in a little while. In the meantime, catch up on the time youve been separated, and please use the Dont Disturb sign, so I can take a hint. Sonya giggled knowing she made the pair of them blush a bit as she left the room. Mark parked his bike beside the shop and proceeded in as quite a few stares came his way. He usually didnt do this but he wanted to start new, see what life was left in this old dead man. He walked out of the shop a different man, he grabbed a bandana out of the side compartment on the

bike, and then tied it around his freshly cropped locks. He rode down the street a ways to a small bar, he wanted a drink before he went to see Glenn. Sonya seated herself at the bar and ordered her drink. Memories of her encounter with Mark made her dizzy as she knew that it was wrong but what was wrong was so delicious. She knew that even if she and Eric were only dating she had intense feelings for him, and somewhere deep down she thought he was it. No more, Eric thats it. Glenn stayed with Shayna until she fell asleep again and then he slowly closed the door on his way out. He entered the elevator headed for the bar, he wanted to talk to Sonya and find out just what the hell happened. He sent Mark to take care of them, then Mark calls saying he hasnt seen him, and Sonya is so edgy she cant even stay in the same room with him and Shayna. What the hell happened here? I know the sun, the sand, and the water of the beach make people crazy but damn, I am gone a couple of days and life goes all to hell. Sonya downed her third drink as the effects started to hit her, just as a large man came up and claimed the chair beside her. Hey Glenn, let me buy you a drink. Just one, and why dont you slow down on that one, we need to talk. Glenn commanded more than implied. Sure ruin my party why dont ya? Okay, okay Ill slow down cutie. Sonya replied not happy with the interruption to her private party. The bartender served the drinks as Glenn turned to Sonya, Okay just what the hell happened? Sonya drew a deep breath ready to let it all go, who knows maybe it would help her to deal with it if she told Glenn. After I arrived Shay and I had some girl time, then the day after our party your friend arrived Sonyas face turned a deep crimson. Oh no, Sonya he got to you too? The man is such a charmer. Please continue, tell me how the lady I love it laying up there beaten and bruised, and why my best friend needs me to forget where he is for a few days. Yes youre friend hes goodbut anyway once he showed up, he went out with us, then as we returned later that evening, closer to the night, something wasnt right, and lucky for Shay and I he knew it. Hes very observant, stealthy even, he stalks like a jungle cat, and strikes when necessary. Sonya took a sip of her drink, Well he laid out a plan for us to take out whoever was in the house, we assumed Brad but we didnt know for sure. We executed the plan only Brad had hit Shayna more times than we expected, we thought he would only corner her, try to intimidate her, not hurt her. Well after he knocked Brad out, with a pipe, we tended to Shayna, he gave me specific instructions on what to do what not to do, and I did it, cause I wanted Shayna to live and Brad to pay. So here we are Sonya sighed as she downed the quarter of a glass of schnapps she was drinking. Thats it? Why does Mark have to hide then? Glenn asked. WellBrad had some items with him that was meant to burn the house, you know Mark really should tell you this, not me because I wasnt there. Sonya shortened the convo, she really didnt know that Mark had done it and she never wanted anyone to hear her say that he did. What the hell? Glenn shouted then he waited for the others eyes to turn away as he whispered, Do you mean the house is gone? What about Shays things? This is killing her to keep having to start over.

No Shays stuff is in the trunk of the car, well her clothes and most of what mattered to her, things you gave her and all. I took care of that while Mark tended to her. Well thank you for that but this is all happening way too fast for me, I just have one last question. Apparently you saw Mark earlier, just where the hell is he now? Glenn was fuming, wait until he got a hold of Markhe would never be able to thank him enough or bitch about how reckless he was, one of the two. Right now he wasnt sure which one. Glenn hes around, he said hed find you later. I am going to go, I want to call the airport, I need to get home, and I really dont want to be here when Mark gets here, if you catch my drift. Sonya replied as she squeezed Glenns hand. Its all going to be okay, you just take care of her, she loves you more than life itself. Glenn pressed against her hand with his as he smiled thinking of Shayna. I know, I love her too. She knows. Funny isnt it? Sonya replied as she turned to go. Excuse me? Glenn retorted Its funny how fate works, for some it makes you realize who you love, others it makes you realize who you dont, and then for some they just wonder if fate will ever shine on them. Sonya replied as the sudden thought hit her, There is one more thing Glenn, Shayna has no memory of Mark, she doesnt remember him being there or anything. Somehow she thinks it was just us two, its best that she doesn't ever know he was here, shes smart, and shell figure it out if you tell her. Sonya walked off leaving Glenn wondering what to do, he didnt even know what happened he wasnt there, and now somehow he knew too much. Sonya retrieved her things from the trunk of the car. She had placed a call to the airlines and found a flight that left in an hour. She sat on the edge of her friends bed as they shared a tearful good bye and Shayna and Sonya held on tight to one another as Sonya promised to come and see her when they got settled. Wheres Glenn? Shayna asked, she felt so needy, like she couldnt be alone, she knew Sonya said Brad was dead but the thought of being alone still scared her. Hes downstairs hell be right up, he knows I am leaving soon. Sonya replied as they hugged over and over, neither wanted the other to leave. Well I have to go sweetie, Ill call you as soon as I get home. Sonya said with tears running down her cheeks. Okay and Sonya, thank you for everything. Shayna said looking up at Sonya through tear filled eyes. What are friends for? Sonya replied giving her a wink and flashing those big brown eyes. Shay smiled as she laid her head back on the pillow. Sonya walked out of the hotel room and cried the whole elevator ride and taxi ride to the airport. Glenn had made it to his third drink when he felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder, he was pissed at the thought of who would try such a stunt. He had been concentrating on what to do with Shayna and now someone was trying to mess with him. Usually when this happened, the hand that touched him belonged to the towns biggest drunk thinking that he could take on the world by beating up the

biggest man in the bar. Glenn turned to see what trouble he was about to get into when he nearly fell off of his stool. What the hell? I dont believe it. Damn. Nice to see you too my friend. Mark replied as his shades slid down to show his mischievous eyes. I dont believe it. I just refuse to believe it, Mark Calaway got a haircut, damn they scalped you didnt they? Glenn teased his friend. Yeah funny wise ass, I made you an appointment while I was there. Mark glared at him as he pulled his shades off and slid them on top of his head. You must be crazy, there is no way I am cutting my hair, I like the feel of Shaynas fingers running through it Glenn sarcastically remarked Too much information Glenn but how is she doing while we are on the subject of her. Mark asked. Shes actually pretty good, shes resting, Sonya was with heroh you know Sonya right? Glenn said pouring salt in a fresh wound. Yeah I know her, shes too good for me. Mark replied Too good for you? Hell half the women you find are too good for the likes of you Calaway but that never stops you. Mark shot Glenn a look as the bartender brought Mark his drink. Easy there, Red Devil. I meant that comment in the best possible way. Glenn replied Yeah and I meant what I said when I made you that appointment to get scalped, I believe you called it. Mark laughed as he placed the beer mug to his lips and took a swig. They had a couple more drinks and Mark decided to stay at that hotel for the night and Glenn went up to see Shayna. Glenn walked in the room quietly all the lights were out but a tiny lamp across the room. He began tugging at the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head, then unfastening his pants, and making his way to the lamp to turn it off for the night. He walked over to the bed and slid in behind her as he cuddled up next to her. Shayna was deep in sleep as she felt her back light up with warmth and she wiggled a little and pressed into his arms, it was great to have him home. Then the reality hit her, Sonya said there were flames, she didnt have a homeshe bolted upright in the bed and was sobbing loudly as Glenn who had drifted off came to her aid. He pulled her closely into his chest, her head rested against his bicep, as he stroked her hair, Baby whats wrong? Our house Glenn, our new start, its all gone. Shayna cried as she babbled on, Its all gone, everything, our new start. Shhh, shhh Shayna, its okay. See you are forgetting, yes the things we started over with are gone but we have one another, and thats all we need. Glenn comforted her as they lay back down together, her head landing on his arm as she huddled up against him. Just think of it this way Shay, when you feel better, well find a new place, and well get to christen

every room of it. Glenn laughed as Shayna poked him in the ribs, she was well on her way to feeling better, and thoughts of christening sure helped her to heal faster. In each other's arms they were on their way to a new start, and healing for her but Shayna couldn't help but think that not only could she use some emotional healing but that sexual healing as well. She scooted closer to Glenn as she closed her eyes tightly against his chest. As the sun poked its rays through their hotel room balcony, the phone started to ring, and Glenn was reaching around to find it without shaking Shayna from her sleep. "Hello." Glenn's gruff voice drifted across the line. "Hey Glenn its Sonya, I just wanted to let you know I made it in, Shay wanted me to call when I did. I hope I didn't wake you." Sonya stated "No you didn't I was on my way up anyhow. I am glad you made it but Shay is still sleeping, I'll have her give you a call when she gets up. Take care." Glenn replied as he went to hang up the phone. He fell back to sleep, tired from his flight, tired from the mental trauma he'd been through, and not to mention the drinks on top of that. Later in the afternoon, he woke up and Shayna was still asleep, he decided to let her rest, her body needed it. He walked around the tiny motel room as he found his laptop and connected it to the hotel ports. He was online instantly and he was trying to find a solution to their problems. He checked a few sites then as he was ready to pull his hair out, the last site had just what he was looking for. He disconnected the laptop and picked up his cell, he went to the bathroom and made a call. "Thank you for expediting this." Glenn remarked "Thank you Mr. Jacobs for your business, we'll call you by the end of the day, our office closes at seven." A mystery voice replied. Glenn smile as he thought of Shayna. "Perfect." He walked over to his bag and pulled out the velvet box as he flipped it open, and the sparkle reflected on the walls. He walked over to the bed and kissed Shayna on the one cheek revealed to him. Shayna was dreaming peacefully as she smiled and rolled over. Glenn couldn't help but laugh at her sleeping the day away. Later that evening, Glenn received his call, while Shayna was in the shower. He was going to take her out to dinner. "Glenn honey was that Sonya?" Shayna asked walking out of the bathroom. "No, oh damn Sonya did call and you were sleeping, I forgot to tell you, I am so sorry." Glenn apologized "It's okay, so she made it fine?" Shayna asked "Yeah I told her I would have you call her later." Glenn replied "I'll call her when I get back from dinner then." Shayna smiled as she went to get dressed. Glenn stifled his laugh as he hoped that maybe she would be too busy to call then. Halfway through dinner, Shayna lost her appetite and Glenn had already consumed his meal down.

They both were suddenly quiet as they stared into one another's eyes. Glenn scooted closer to her chair, "Shayna, I need to talk to you." Shayna's heart leapt, even though Glenn had come back to her he had still been with his ex-wife, what if he had decided that he wanted to reconcile with her? Shayna was making herself nervous and sick at the same time. "Glenn, what's wrong?" "Oh honey nothing's wrong, I just missed you. I was so scared when I heard you had been hurt, the first thing that entered my mind was how would I live without you?" Glenn stated as he felt tears forming in his eyes. "Shayna, I decided right then and there, I don't ever want to have to imagine this life without you, ever." "Glenn honey I am okay, I was scared but now that you are here, I am just as fine as I can be." Shayna replied "Shayna, that's not exactly what I am saying, I mean I don't want to face the rest of my life without you. Will you marry me?" Glenn said as he presented her with the small velvet box and he took the ring out and slipped it on her finger. Shayna's mouth dropped and she turned ashen. Between ragged breaths she looked at him, "Yes Glenn, yes I will." They were both nearly in tears as he tossed some money on the table and took her in his arms and carried her out to the vehicle. "Shayna baby, now I have something else for you." "Glenn, let's just go back to the hotel." Shayna replied as she looked at Glenn with desire in her eyes. "Shay, I promise we will but for now, let me take you somewhere first." Glenn said as he drove up the coast to the higher elevations, overlooking the water and the shops. "Shay welcome to our home." Glenn said as they pulled up to what Shayna thought was a resort or some other rental building. "Glenn you didn't. This is too much Glenn, way too much." Shayna said amazed at all he had done. This was the second house they had together, and hopefully with Brad out of the way, the last house they would ever have together. They surveyed the house, it was huge, and Shayna thought for sure she would get lost in it. As they went in room after room, they stopped at the bedroom, Shayna turned to him and questioned. "Glenn what will we do with all this room?" "Well I was thinking that first it would hold our guest for the wedding we would hold here and then, one day it would hold our children." Shayna felt the tears just freefall as she rested into his arms. They started preparation for moving, Mark who was still in town, was introduced to Shayna, and she still had no memory of him. Glenn and Mark both felt that it was best nothing ever be said of him even being around through Shayna's hard time. Mark had agreed to stay off tour long enough to help them get settled into the house, Vince was begging him to come back, actually demanding but when had he ever cared? Glenn had all of his things moved in from his old house and Shayna only had what Sonya had packed the night time stood still for her, so she had to buy a lot of new things. As big as the house was, a lot had to be bought, it was very overwhelming. Later as they were moving some things into the house, Shayna had returned from shopping with some things and as she was carrying some e bags upstairs, she suddenly felt lightheaded, and almost fell backwards. She grabbed the rail as she slid against the wall, using it for support, and she landed on

one of the steps. Glenn heard her as she pushed against the wall on her way down. He rushed to her side immediately. "Shayna are you alright?" "Yeah all these steps just make me extremely dizzy, that combined with the rushing." Shayna replied as she pulled herself back up. After situating things, she, Glenn, and Mark sat at the kitchen island as they ate lunch together. The wedding was in four days and they were still trying iron out some details. It was going to be a small affair but it was going to be at the house, and there would be a lot of people in and out of the house. "I just agreed to help move you two in here, I don't want to hear about this cutesy love stuff." Mark sarcastically commented. "Aww Mark, you never know, this may come in handy sometime soon." Glenn teased. "Yeah whatever bro." Mark glared at him as Shayna just laughed at them both. She really like Mark, he seemed so familiar to her, and with him and Glenn being so close in every way it was great having him around. Shayna retreated to her room to take a nap and quietly turned the lock on the door, so no one would walk in on her. She pulled the box out of her purse and entered the bathroom. Three minutes later she smiled in the mirror as all of her dreams came true. Shayna smiled from ear to ear, her enthusiasm couldn't be hid as she practically floated down the stairs. "Glenn," Shayna called out, trying to find out what room he was in. "Yeah hon, we are on the third floor." he called out from downstairs, "We are trying to set up the home gym, watch those stairs." "I will." Shayna replied as she went down to the basement. The two large men just stared at her as her face glowed and she looked at them with that grin. "Okay what's up Shay?" Glenn said as he broke the silence. "Well actually I wanted to see how what you thought about making the room just off of ours a nursery." Shayna said and paused a moment to let it sink in. Glenn felt himself waiver, he knew that one day they would but now? He never figured now, they would be raising a family. Mark slapped him on the back bringing him back to reality. "Congratulations, my friend." He remarked nudging Glenn in Shayna's direction. Glenn took her in his arms and hugged her tightly as he smiled. He couldn't wait, he was going to be a daddy. He immediately went to make a call, she had to have help, he wasn't going to let her go through the next few days or months without it. Shayna had stayed downstairs and talked to Mark, when Glenn returned he was smiling also. He grabbed Shayna in his arms and they went upstairs. Mark knowing what was going to happen made himself comfortable in the living room. He had just laid his legs across the couch when the doorbell rang. "Damn, not only do I become a mover, a wedding consultant, and now a butler." Mark spat, he was frustrated with his life and decided to just give up. He went to the door and swung it open to reveal a blonde, about 5'5", and a very well endowed chest staring him in the face. He just stood there looking at her, as she stared back with a look of "Okay can you talk."

Mark had never been that taken with a woman in his whole life. "Hi, my name is Roxanna, but you may call me Rox, I am from the agency you contacted, Mr. Jacobs." Mark licked his lips and slightly chuckled as he replied, "Sorry I am Mark, Mark Calaway, but I will get the Jacob's for you, come in." Rox smiled to herself as she was thrilled that he wasn't the husband, or she may have to consider an affair with a body and eyes like that. "What are you thinking?" Rox thought but suddenly spoke aloud. She clamped her mouth and eyes shut as she knew she was busted. "Well I was thinking would you like to go out later?" Mark replied to her as she knew she was caught. "Well let me get this job first, and then I'll give you an answer." Rox replied coyishly "Oh you're hired, and then some." Mark thought as he excused himself and went upstairs banging on Glenn and Shayna's door. Glenn rushed to the door as he told Mark, "Quiet down, Shay's sleeping, where's the fire?" Glenn wished he'd retracted that statement but Mark paid no mind to him. "You're nurse is here for the interview, Glenn you have to hire her, if you don't I will." Mark said almost dancing around like a little boy with ants in his pants. "Damn she must be a fine nurse if she's given you that much energy, and quickly." Glenn laughed as he grabbed his shirt off the back of the door. As he slid his arms through it and was buttoning it up, Mark was looking at him with pleading eyes. "I thought you were headed back on the road after the wedding." Glenn teased "Well maybe but I am welcome to come back and visit right?" Mark never believed in love at first sight and that probably wasn't what he felt exactly but Rox was it. Glenn met with her and Shayna woke from her nap to meet with her, they both liked her and after checking her references, they hired her. "Do you think you could be moved in by tomorrow? I really could use your help before the wedding too, not only with the baby." Shayna questioned "Yeah I don't have much, my assignments are usually so short term I am ready to move on the drop of a hat. I just have my furniture that will need to be moved." Rox announced "Well I think that we can arrange that." Shayna answered as she knew Mark was pacing back and forth outside the door. "Mark," Shayna called out as Glenn laughed and she jabbed him in the ribs. "Mark." Mark came walking in confident as Shayna explained to him what she needed. "Would you like Glenn to help or do you think you have it?" "I am sure I can handle it, Rox if you want to ride with me and show me where you live, we can go now." Mark stated. "Sure thing." Rox replied as she and Mark left to get her things. Glenn and Shayna were smiling and then burst into laughter as the two made it out of the driveway. "I bet they'll be smiling big when they return." Shayna teased as Glenn dipped her in his arms and covered his mouth with hers.

"Well they don't have to be the only ones." Glenn commented as she took off upstairs with him very close to her heels. Rox almost felt uncomfortable with Mark, had he not been so damn sexy she wouldn't have agreed to let him help her. She could just see his tight ass through those jeans now as he bent to pick up her things. She was staring out the window as he glanced over from the driver's side of the car. His eyes devoured her body and he was using all of his control to keep his hands on the steering wheel. They arrived at the house where her last assignment was and she let them in. The last person she worked for had been an elderly lady with no family and when she died, the state allowed Rox time to stay there until her next assignment. Rox entered the house, she had cleaned it thoroughly after the woman died and had almost begun thinking of it as home. She was ready to move on and when she got the call for the assignment to help with a life being brought into this world instead of one on its way out, she jumped at the chance. Rox walked to the stairs and before walking up she stopped abruptly not aware how close Mark was to her. As Mark was distracted by her physical appearance he ran right into her, when she stopped in front of him. "Damn!" Mark cursed. "Sorry." Rox said through clenched teeth. "I guess I should have told you I was stopping, are you ok?" "Yeah I am fine, you can tend to my wounds later Nurse Rox." Mark said giving her that look like he could just devour her right then and there. They entered her room where her things were packed in about three boxes and then her bed and dresser that was all she owned. "I thought wrestlers lived the bad life." Mark was only sympathizing with her but Rox being the spitfire she was took offense to it. "Listen asshole, I am quite happy with my life, I don't need luxuries and silicone to make me happy." Rox practically took his head off with the daggers her eyes shot at him. "Rox, I didn't mean it that way, and what makes you think I need silicone, I prefer the real deal anyway but I am sorry, please I didn't mean it in the context that I said it in." Mark was practically begging, never had a woman had this affect on him. "It's okay, it can be a sad life but I prefer the reward of helping people, than helping myself." Rox replied as Mark looked at her blue eyes as they twinkled at him. "You're beautiful Rox," Mark said leaning into her as he slipped a tattooed arm around her waist, pulling her intimately close to him, and his desire. They stared into one another's eyes as they both knew, from the moment he opened the door at Glenn's house, their lives would never be the same. Mark ran a long finger from her ear, down her cheek, to her neck, and then landed it on her right breast. His hands began to explore her body as she felt tingling. She knew this was wrong but for this man, it all felt right. He made her body warm, her chest hardened, and the wetness surface between her legs. He walked her forward to the bed tasting her lips as they moved in sync. Her ragged breath when the kiss was broken is all Mark needed to hear, that and the hardness in his pants. He wanted

this to be all right, he'd had one night stands before, he'd had fuck buddies, but this one was different. Mark's hand slowly moved down and undressed Rox as her eyes pleaded for him not to hurt her. Mark had no intentions of hurting her emotionally but she was in for the ride of her life, when they joined together. He undressed her and looked at her as she reached to remove his shirt, then he shrugged back off the bed, and hurriedly shed his pants. He took his tongue and traced a path from her inner ankle to her moist patch between her legs, he encircled it with his tongue, teasing taunting, then moved up to her stomach, and onto her breasts. He lathed them both, they were standing on edge for him, and every little touch, lick, and suck drove her insane. His index finger and middle finger moved rapidly at the center of her legs, as he slid up the length of her to her lips. After a few passionate kisses, his hands never leaving her, Rox could no longer control herself, she wanted to scream and fuck his brains out at the same time. Rox reached for his shaft to pleasure him, then she grasp his cock between her hands, as she began to thrust it back and forth a few times. "Oh damn, Rox! You drive me crazy!" Mark said just as he pried her hands from him. Rox gave him a pouty look as she wondered what she was doing wrong, she thought, "He was obviously enjoying it, why'd he stop me?" Mark looked at her and gave her one last kiss as he whispered in her ear, Let me pleasure you, they'll be time for you to return the favor later. Rox couldn't believe what she was hearing; she ached for him, her body on fire by his touch. He slid between her legs as he tossed them up in the air across his shoulders. She was taken back by this but it excited her at the same time. He looked down at her one last time as he continued his hand assault to her clit. Just as she felt feverish, thinking she would cry out in pleasure, he thrust in her with great force grasping her ankles, and bucking wildly against her. Rox felt her chest heaving, her body ready to explode, as she felt his shaft enter her, as it positioned itself perfectly to rub against her clit from the inside, and as it committed it's first few strokes and the hand action from earlier combined into a climatic orgasm for Rox. She bucked back and forth against him as it forced his erection deeper and deeper in her, Mark felt her lose control as she clamped onto him, he thrust harder, deeper, and faster. "Oh Mark, oh God!" Rox squeaked out as chills covered her body and she felt as if she was in heaven. Mark enjoying the feel of her wrapped around him, thrust faster and faster until he too called out for her. "Rox, oh baby, my Rox!" Mark said as he thrust his seed within her, and then collapsed into her chest. Shayna and Glenn lay on the bed after very intense love session and Shayna started to worry. Glenn honey couldnt we be jumping the gun with Rox, I mean what if the baby doesnt make it? Shayna buried her head in the curl of his bicep. Our baby will be strong, and like its mom it will be a survivor. I would like for you to go see a doctor as soon as possible, and try to stay calm, there is nothing with the wedding that is worth losing our child over. Glenn said looking down at her blue eyes Youre right as usual. Shayna replied as she reached and grabbed hold of his nipple twisting it to his dismay. Shayna soon to be Jacobs, you little witch. Now let me show you how it feels. Glenn said as he began to tickle her until she couldnt see straight, poking, prodding and acting as if he was going to

return her mischievousness. They played around a little when they realized Rox and Mark should be arriving shortly. Hmm for a few boxes, a bed, and a dresser it sure is taking awhile. Shayna said giggling. Yeah Mark likes to take his time on things, things he wants that is. Glenn sarcastically commented, I swear Shay I have never seen him like this in my whole life, well the whole entire time I have known him, that is. Hmm its funny what love does to somebody isnt it? Shayna asked Yes it is, it is, it is. He replied humming through the house. Mark and Rox returned really late and just barely carried her furniture in before they had their first seasons storm. They were so tired they werent able to get her bed set up, so Mark offered his to her, and of course not being able to resist the Red Devil she accepted. You better tell your friend, or I might get fired." Rox replied staring at him hungrily. Shed tasted what he had to offer and she wanted more, more, and more. Mark cleared things with Glenn only after some serious jabbing, She just got here, youve already gotten to her? Damn you are the slickest ladies man, I have ever seen. Yeah they just cant resist me. Mark commented as he walked away. Shayna was tired and she only had two full days until the intimate wedding and party, they had planned. As soon as her head hit the pillow she was out, Glenn came into the bedroom, and what he saw took his breath away. The woman he loved lying in a sheer night gown, spread out on the bed, and sleeping like an angel. Glenn took a deep breath, as he slid in beside her, and turned off the lamp. He kissed her head as he put his arm across her and rubbed his hand back and forth across her stomach. Shayna moved slightly and curled up next to him, sliding one leg in between his. Glenn growled for his desire was rising but he calmed down and drifted off to sleep. The next day, she was off to fittings, and picking up things for the wedding. Luckily all of it was catered so there wasnt any cooking. She had gone upstairs to rest, but she wanted to make sure she had received the delivery. Rox, didnt you mention that a package had arrived for me? Yes Mrs. Jacobs, its under the bed. I thought it was the one you were looking for. Rox replied as she was busy setting up her room. Now Rox, I told you not under any means are you to call me Mrs. Jacobs. Please call me Shayna or Shay, whichever you prefer. Shayna replied as she reached under the bed and found the package. Perfect. She thought Unwrapping it carefully, she checked the box, it was so crisp and detailed, and her lips formed a smile as she wrapped it back up and tucked it in the top of the closet. The day flew by as the four of them scurried around to finish the house details for tomorrow when the guests arrived. Cant we stop now, Shay the house looks perfect? Mark whimpered as Rox passed by him, she blushed, thinking of what had happened not only once but many times the night before.

Glenn rolled his eyes, if he knew Shay she would just make Mark work that much harder. I dont know Rox, do you think that these boys deserve a break? Shayna asked as Glenn walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her. Well I guess they have done a lot, so they deserve some play time. Rox winked at the guys. They gave her definite head shakes as thank yous. Okay guys take a break, the only thing I can think that may be left is just to walk through and check things, so Rox and I can take care of that. Shayna replied The guys were gone before she even finished her sentence, Mark had heard about this great bike shop and he and Glenn wanted to go check it out. Some help they are. I have ten people arriving tomorrow just to stay here, not to mention the thirty more that will arrive to attend. Shayna commented. You are one busy woman, and now you are going to take on a child too? Rox replied Yes, glutton for love I guess. Shay laughed. The next morning they ate breakfast together as the doorbell started to ring, the guest were arriving for the ceremony. Even though Rox was hired for Shaynas pregnancy because of her nursing skills, she still helped out in other ways, and today she was greeting the guests. Hello, you must be Shayna. A young woman replied as she stepped in the house. No, I am Roxanna, I am Shaynas assistant. Rox replied using her full name, this girl, flaunted her wealth greatly. Rox began to shut the door as a guy proceeded in with a couple of suitcases; he was built like a tank, medium length hair, and quite a predominant nose. Hi, Rox said. I am sorry, I am Stephanie, and this is Paul. The young woman spoke as he dropped the bags on the floor. Yeah the princess, Paul mumbled as only Rox could hear. She softly giggled as he looked at her out from under the strings of dirty blonde hair falling in his face. Glenn was coming down the stairs accompanied by Shayna as Stephanie squealed, Big man, there you are. Its been so long, I have missed you backstage and on the show. Hi Stephanie, I should be back soon, hey Paul whats going on? Glenn replied leaving Shayna for chit chat with Stephanie. Rox looked up at her once and caught a sideways glance and she had to stifle her laughter at the sight of Shays expression. Soon enough the doorbell rang yet again, and in came someone later identified as the Princesss brother and his wife Marisa. Rox began to question what had she gotten herself into? She knew now why Mark was hiding or gone rather, she owed him for leaving her alone in the midst of all of this. These people were definitely not people that she would want to be alone with. More people were arriving, next was a shaggy haired man in sweatpants, then a towering woman, with raven hair. Hi Im Mick, this is Joanie.

Mick! Shayna squealed for once, she was so happy to see him, they had worked on his book together and she had heard that he was going to write another one soon. Damn Glenn you didnt tell me shutterbug was your fianc. Mick stated lifting her off the ground as they did some silly handshake. Hey Mick, I didnt know shutterbug was my fianc either, let me guess you worked on Micks first book? Glenn asked Shayna smiled, Yeah we did, and hes the greatest! Mick was twirling her around, Oh Mick no more twirls please, this baby might give back its breakfast. Baby, you are having a little red machine? Mick said rather boisterous. Shah, no one knows. We are waiting until we are farther along. Shayna whispered. Mick chuckled, Shutterbug, this is Joanie. She used to be known as Chyna in the business, you didnt work on her book but your company held the account. Hi Joanie, its nice to meet you. Shay replied Thank you its nice to meet you, I wondered if Glenn would ever find someone right for him. Congratulations. Joanie replied giving her a huge smile. Glenn, come here big guy, long time no see. Joanie said hugging him, they started talking and jabbering on instantly. Joanie had always been there for Glenn through everything. Joanie its so great to see you. Come here. Glenn replied. Hed forgotten Steph and Paul were staying too, then suddenly he remembered, Damn Joanie, Steph and Paul are here, will you be okay? Of course I will, I am a survivor, actually thats what I wanted to tell you, I have someone new in my life, hes on his way in, he had to get some of our stuff. Joanie replied New huh? They never could keep a good woman down. Glad to hear you have discovered better things, you are deserving of good things in your life. Glenn replied Thanks sweetie, his name is Brock. Joanie replied as the huge man walked through the doors, Glenn took notice, he almost envied his physique compared to the small belly hed developed while he was off. Glenn, Joanie, and Brock talked awhile as Mick, Shayna, and Rox talked. The others had gone to their rooms. After a couple of younger guys came in, some with girlfriends some not, the last people to enter were of course the most important of the crew. Mr. and Mrs. Vincent K. McMahon entered as Mrs. McMahon looked at the house, she loved Shaynas taste in decorating and Mr. McMahon headed straight for Glenn. Its great to see you big man, its been way too long. Vince hugged Glenn and patted him on the back. I see the time and obviously the sun and sand agrees with you. Its great to see you happy, big man, I sure cant wait until you return. Thank you Vince, its a great feeling to finally have all that you need and wanted out of life. I feel

kind of rusty though I need to work some of that off before returning. Glenn replied as they shared a mutual nod. Linda had begun talking to Shayna and wanted to see the house, she loved a put together house, well decorated and laid out. Linda reached over and laid a hand on Shaynas arm, You did all this in you condition? Shayna turned pale, You can tell? Is it that obvious? It's only noticeable to a mom and someone whos been there, before. Your secret is safe with me, dont worry. Linda replied as she walked over to Glenn and gave him a hug. I am so glad you wanted to share this day with us. Linda, I couldnt think of anyone I would rather have here since Mom and Dad passed away. Glenn replied kissing Lindas cheek. The guests were all upstairs getting settled as Glenn and Shayna had entered the huge dining room, Shayna still couldnt believe the size of this house. Rox stood at the door waiting, hoping, wondering when Mark was coming back when Shayna walked up behind her. Miss him that bad? She asked Yes I do, Shay I am sorry that I got involved with him, I was supposed to be professional, and that wasnt a very good thing for me to do, so I do understand if you feel the need to release me after the wedding and find someone more professional. Rox said hoping that Shayna wouldnt release her she was enjoying this place and she knew she could definitely get used to the visits from Mark. Rox, I do expect you to be professional but I dont see the harm in two people who obviously care about one another spending some down time together. As long as my life and my childs arent in Jeopardy, the relationship between you and Mark is acceptable. Shayna replied giving her a slight hug as they turned to go to the dining room, a loud roar bombarded their ears. Rox looked at Shay and Shay returned her look, with confidence. Rox thrilled that he had made it back went running out the front door to see him. She was disappointed when there was no bike, and no Mark. She turned her head to go as two arms grabbed her and lifted her off the ground. Hey darling, looking for someone? Mark replied as she inhaled him. His shirt smelled of the bike shop, his hair smelled crisp and clean, and his body was pure heaven. His scent of manhood was like no other, he could walk into a room packed full and she would know where he was. Rox punched him in the arm and wiggled loose. Yes I am, and damn mad he kept me waiting. She smiled as she pulled back; Mark just reached out with one arm and pulled her into him in a deep kiss. Shayna watched from the door until she saw that things were fine and then returned to Glenn who by know was talking to Joanie and Brock. Oh lord probably supplements or weight lifting am I right? Actually, Brock rides like Mark and I do. We were talking about cycles. Glenn replied Thank goodness, Shayna said as she went to sit next to Joanie. She knew all about her and her history with Paul, she suggested Steph and Paul stay elsewhere but Glenn said they were adults it would be okay, to have the four of them in the house. So Joanie, what are you doing now? Glenn

had mentioned you wanted to be a fitness trainer, with your own tapes and things, but then he said you were a Jill of all trades, too. Joanie replied telling Shayna all about her new and exciting life as Shayna listened on. Mark walked into the room as Joanie excused herself and jumped up, Hiya Taker, long time no see. Joanie hugged him in time for Rox to walk in on the scene. Joanie, looking as good as ever. I miss you in the business, you really should have thought things over more carefully. Mark replied Mark, you know how that goes, I left with my dignity and I can return if I want to. I just want to try something else. Joanie replied taking her leave from him, she liked Mark but he was too damn devoted to Vince. Rox stood back as Mark reached out for her, she pulled back and seated herself opposite Shayna. The rest of the guests were entering as the caterers were setting up the meal. The meal was long and many conversations were sparked as they all caught up on the others lives and as Rox and Shayna learned who these people were and tried to keep all the stories straight. All the guests retired to their rooms as did Glenn and Shayna. Mark and Rox were stuck in her room this night because of all the guests but neither of them minded at all. The next day went by in a blur, Rox was at Shaynas side as she got ready to marry Glenn. Never had anyone made her feel like this, of all they had been through, the good times, the bad, the happy, and sad, he was the one and only. She slipped into the sparkly white dress, it was a semiformal, with no sleeves but a cheer chiffon drape that attached at her shoulders and hung slightly past her waist. Joanie had come in and was helping place small white flowers in her pulled up curls with the back draping down. She slipped on her shoes and turned to the oval mirror to see herself, a tear slipped down her cheek as Rox and Joanie looked on. I have waited for this day for my whole life. Shayna spoke staring into the mirror. Thank you both for helping me. As the mood was serious but quiet they both nodded in a welcoming gesture. Silent as things were, she heard a loud noise outside her door, and went to investigate. I am telling you that shes expecting me and you are making me late. Sonya demanded to see Shayna and one of the extra securities provided by Vince had given her a hard time. Its okay, Dan let her in, shes the Maid of Honor. Shayna remarked See I told you so. Sonya said rolling her eyes at him. Shay, honey you look beautiful. Oh this is Eric, my fianc. Sonya replied introducing her friend to the man she loved. He stood around 62 and had naturally curly hair cut short, and was wearing a nice suit. Pleased to meet you Eric, I have heard wonderful things about you. I am glad this wild woman finally found someone to treat her and make her feel the way you do. Shay commented hugging him and Sonya both. Sonya that dress is perfect, thanks so much for finding it, I hated I couldnt fly in and help you or fly you out early and have found it here. Like I need an excuse to shop, Shay you know better than that. Sonya laughed, I am glad you like it though.

They embraced as they rambled on, about all that had been going on. Eric took his leave from all of the girl stuff and wandered down to the guest area. Rox was scurrying around trying to make sure Shayna made it on time. The wedding was to take place at the light house close to them, and they would return to their home for the reception. The lighthouse had been decorated, with garlands of natural flowers around the seating area and down the aisle. Two tall arrangements along with ornamental palms created an altar for the ceremony. The waves crashing in the background with the dusk time lighting of the sky was a perfect canvas for the couple to say their vows. Glenn and Mark were at the lighthouse with the preacher. The entire house full of guests and some of the people that worked with Shayna had arrived as they awaited the start of the ceremony. Time had come... Knock, knock. A voice very familiar to Shayna said as she ran to the door, it was her boss Harry Morgan, hed been the one to encourage her to leave Brad several times and the last time when Glenn helped her move, hed been the prince that took care of everything. Harry you made it! Shayna said as they hugged. Harry was going to give Shayna away since she had no living relatives. Harry, Shayna, Sonya and Rox made their way downstairs where Eric joined them and they rode in the back of Harrys convertible, while Eric and Rox rode together in his car. Sonya was on the right side, Shayna on the left, as they pulled up to the lighthouse. The music was cued as Sonya began her walk down the aisle, Harry approached Shaynas side of the car, and helped her out. She stood behind all the guests as they were asked to stand, she saw Glenn, he looked gorgeous in a suit with a collarless shirt, and he demanded no ties. She smiled as she felt the tears swell up. The walk seemed to last forever but she finally made it to Glenn, as Harry gave her to him, he bent and kissed her hand. Shaynas hand was trembling as they said their vows, and joined together what no man shall part. After an intimate reception at their house, with dancing, drinking, and a good time, they retired to their room. Shayna looked up and he was staring down at her, her smoky eyes told him the answer they both wanted. He brushed the back of his hand against her cheek down to her neck, and then he pulled her close to him as he kissed her with desire, he cupped his hands around her face, and they deepened the kiss. She began button by button undoing his shirt as she, let her hands roam all over his body, she loved the way his muscles felt through the silkiness of the pants, and the way the draped across his butt. She was hot just thinking of the things he did to her body. Standing in front of her unclothed she marveled his body, as he approached her a soft moan escaped her lips when his manhood brushed against her. This intrigued Glenn at her obvious excitement, he ran his hands up and down her back, and on the last trip down her back they took the zipper of her dress with them. A small moan escaped her lips as his soft hands brushed her back. He lifted her in his arms and laid her on the bed. As he covered her, he looked deep into her eyes, I love you. I love you too. She replied as he traced his tongue across her stomach, to her breasts, circling her nipple and then down to the nest of curls between her legs. He tasted her time and time again, taking her to the edge and stopping, she was running her hands through his curls, each time she reached her point and he stopped, she would whimper out, Nooo.

Struggling to breathe Shayna pulled his lips up to meet hers as she licked his ear, and then nipped it with her teeth, Please Glenn, I need to feel you inside me, NOW! Glenn heard her command and obeyed, he thrust himself in her, she was moist as he entered her, Glenn felt her inner walls clamp around him, as she took her legs and hooked them around his waist, and their bodies moved in rhythm with one another. Shayna was at her peak as she arched her hips to meet his pelvic area, and thrust him deep within the recess of their love within her. Her body shivered as Glenns thrusts picked up pace, the more her body contracted for her impending orgasm, the stiffer and bigger Glenn grew, he buried himself so deep within her, he was afraid she wouldnt be able to walk tomorrow. Suddenly Shayna moaned with a squeal as she let out a breath while her body shook beneath him. Glenn watched as her eyes cleared and she looked up at him sated, he too felt the rumble within, and began to spill within her. Shayna held him with her legs as he put one hand under her head and pulled her up to his chest. A growl erupted from Glenns throat as they collapsed in one anothers arms. As they came down from the sexual high they had shared, once their breathing had returned to normal, she reached down into the nightstand drawers and pulled out a present, neatly wrapped, with a small bow. Glenn gave her a puzzled look as if he didnt understand. Open it. Shayna commanded Glenn opened it as he carefully tore the paper he revealed, his book, about his life, and career. They lay in one anothers arms and looked through it, when Glenn noticed their was a bunch of blank pages in the back, he frowned a bit as Shayna looked up at him. He didnt want to ruin her present but he was upset that someone had done this to his book. Dont frown honey, I had those pages put there for the rest of your life, because as much as I love a happy ending, we are only beginning. Glenn smiled as their lips met in a kiss that sent them soaring into a path of bliss, forever after.
