Chapter 25
"I have to go see Lili. I want to make sure she's alright." Liliya was insistent and stubborn, but Seth knew Roman wouldn't let it happen.
"You can see her in the morning, baby doll. You know she's perfectly safe with Roman. He'd never hurt her and we got the text message." Seth had to find some kind of distraction to keep Liliya from trying to go bother Roman and Lilianna. "How about we go out tonight, Lyla? I know a club that's not far from the hotel, so it's in walking distance. It'll burn off some of the energy we both have."
Liliya frowned, looking up into his deep chocolate eyes pleading with her to leave with him and sighed. It wasn't that she didn't want to go to a club with Seth, but she felt guilty for leaving Lilianna alone. Granted, Roman was with her, but after what happened with Randy Orton earlier at the arena, Liliya highly doubted her friend wanted to be anywhere near a man. She didn't fully trust Roman Reigns with Lilianna and, until he proved himself, Liliya never would.
"If Roman hurts her…"
Seth cupped her face in his strong hands, pulling her closer and kept his eyes locked on citrine. "He won't." He sounded confident, no hesitation in his tone of voice and Seth felt Liliya's resolve start weakening. "He could never hurt her. You have no idea how long he's wanted to be with Lilianna, do you?"
Liliya rose a brow, confusion entering her eyes. "How long exactly?"
"As long as I've wanted to be with you, but was too chicken shit to tell you how I felt." Seth replied truthfully, stroking her cheek lovingly with his long finger and wrapped his free arm around her waist. "Now come out with me. Let me get your mind off everything. Lili is in good hands, I promise."
Over the past month, Seth thoroughly enjoyed his time with Liliya and lost count at how many different places they managed to have sex. Just one look from those smoldering chocolate eyes and Liliya dropped her panties, begging Seth to take her in whatever location they were in. Hell, there was one unforgettable moment up on the roof of an arena, which a definite first for Liliya. Seth heard no complaints and didn't regret a single second he spent with Liliya, loving how the woman had as much of an insatiable appetite for sex as he did. He was a hyper man and she matched him with energy, so they had to burn it off somehow in order to get a few hours of sleep a night for work. It seemed as though everything was perfect between Seth and Liliya and they were.
For the most part.
Liliya's earlier meltdown at the arena wasn't the first time it happened. The first time had been when Seth's ex-girlfriend texted and wished him a belated Happy Birthday message through a text message. They were still friends, Liliya didn't know and had lost her temper, exploding on Seth screaming and crying. He didn't understand half the accusations she spewed at him and didn't know how to handle it, so Seth started screaming back at her. Angry sex ensued and Seth lay awake in bed that night staring up at the ceiling, wondering what the hell got into Liliya. The sex was rough, hard and fast, both of them just needing a release. That's not what bothered Seth though – it was Liliya's dangerous temper spiking over a simple text message from his ex.
"I have a horrible jealousy issue and I'm sorry." Liliya had admitted after they both came down from their intense sexual high and all Seth could do was nod, kissing the top of her head.
The second time was while they had a few days off in Tampa, Florida, where Seth currently resided. He took Liliya home for the 2 days off on Wednesday and Thursday, wanting to relax one-on-one with her for a change. It'd been 2 weeks into their relationship and things had progressed without another outburst. That was until they ran into Seth's ex-girlfriend, the same one who sent the Happy Birthday text, at the grocery store on their last day off. Seth didn't think about the consequences of his actions and gave his ex a hug, thanking her for the text message, which set Liliya off. She ended up shoving the woman on her backside and screamed at her to stay away from Seth, that he didn't belong to her anymore. Seth had to wrap his arms tightly around Liliya's struggling body and carted her out of the grocery store with everyone staring at them wide-eyed. It was embarrassing to say the least and Liliya ended up leaving Seth's a day early, saying she needed time alone. Seth tried stopping her, pleading to know what was going on, but all Liliya shut him out and he could only watch her leave his condo.
The following day, Liliya and Seth made up at the house show they both performed in with her apologizing for being a psychotic bitch and Seth showing her with actions he wanted only her. He forgave her, not wanting anything coming between them, but in the back of his mind something continuously nagged at him. Being an idiot and thinking with the wrong head, Seth convinced himself everything was fine with Liliya and she hadn't had another episode…until tonight with Lilianna's attack. She had every right to be worried for her friend, but the way she panicked and lashed out wasn't normal. Seth had learned quickly the only way to calm Liliya down was to hold her tightly and talk soothingly in her ear like he had. Roman knew something was up, texted Seth about it and Seth responded with he'd tell Roman everything tomorrow at the gym. Right now, he just wanted to keep Liliya as calm as possible, get her mind off of Lilianna's attack and hopefully spend the remainder of the night making love to her.
"Before we go, I need a shower, Ninja Rollins." Liliya murmured against his mouth before claiming his, kissing him passionately burying her fingers in his two-toned hair. "Unless of course you'd rather just stay in tonight?"
Seth groaned, gripping her hips and would've loved nothing more than to stay at the hotel naked in bed with Liliya for the rest of the night, but he couldn't. He had to keep her away from the hotel for a few hours until he knew for a fact she wouldn't try breaking Roman's hotel room door down. Shaking his head, Seth pulled back and took her hand, lacing their fingers together heading to the elevator to go up to the room they currently shared.
"Quick shower and then we're out the door, woman. I wanna get that body all sweaty and riled up – THEN we'll come back here and get naked." Seth winked with an evil gleam in his eyes and Liliya felt a warmth flood her body, wondering what he had in mind. "It'll mostly be sex with clothes on, baby doll. Fair warning."
He would be the death of her, Liliya thought, and the elevator dinged signaling their stop, both of them arriving at the hotel room moments later. Seth sent her to the shower instantly, already taking one at the arena and knew Liliya hadn't been able to because of Lilianna's attack. As soon as Seth heard the shower sprays kick on, he immediately went over to Liliya's bag and closed his eyes, momentarily having second thoughts about snooping through her things. Tonight had been the last straw for Seth. If he didn't figure out what was going on with Liliya soon, Seth was afraid her temper would skyrocket past a point of no return – to where she ended up incarcerated and he refused to let that happen. There had to be something he could do to help her through whatever was going on with her, he hoped anyway.
The fact of the matter was Seth had fallen in love with Liliya Young. Her horrible mood swings had to vanish though because he didn't know how much longer he'd be able to stand it. At first, he thought it was her period when her first episode happened, but then the grocery store with his ex had told him it was more than that. Something wasn't right with her and Seth was out of options, knowing he had to investigate and find the answer himself. Every time he asked Liliya about her mood swings, she would just blow it off or change the subject, thinking he hadn't noticed. Seth was a very observant man and noticed almost everything around him, especially when it came to her.
After sifting through her bag and not finding anything out of the ordinary, Seth zipped the bag back up feeling like a moron. He just violated Liliya's belongings for no reason. Maybe it was him that needed help, not her. Tossing an arm over his eyes, Seth took a few deep breaths and listened for the shower to cut off, wondering if going to a club with Liliya was the smart thing to do. Once Liliya was out of the shower and dressed, they both headed out to the club, wanting to enjoy their time together. Seth lead her inside, keeping an arm wrapped protectively around her waist and made it to the crowded bar, both of them requesting beers.
"This place is so packed!" Liliya yelled with a bright smile on her face, laughing when Seth nodded and let him guide her to a nearby vacant table. "Thanks for convincing me to come out tonight!"
"No problem!" They had to yell because of how loud the music blared throughout the club. "Wanna dance?"
Liliya nodded, setting her beer down along with Seth's and took his hand, both of them moving to the beat of the music before making it fully to the dance floor. Seth instantly pulled her against him, feeling the swell of her breasts pressed against his chest and their hips continued moving, her arms around his neck. Citrine mixed with chocolate brown, the eye contact never ceasing and Seth's hands slid down her back to grip her jean covered backside, the firmness of it making his cock tighten in the confines on his skinny jeans. She could feel it and whipped around, deciding to make his cock pulsate for her more as Liliya bent over, purposely pushing her backside against the bulge in his jeans and both groaned at the contact. Growling from low in his throat, Seth gripped her hips and knew what the vicious minx was doing, grinding his own against her to cause more friction. Her arm snaked up to wrap around his neck, pressing her back against his strong chest and felt Seth's mouth descend hungrily on her neck and ear, whispering all the dirty things he wanted to do to her once they got back to the hotel.
"Piss break, baby. Give me 5." Liliya said, pecking Seth's mouth quickly and scampered off to the bathroom, leaving him standing at the table drinking a beer.
"Seth?"
He turned around at the sound of that voice, frowning at the sight of a saddened Summer Rae. "Hey Summer." He greeted politely, not noticing the Fandango idiot with her and wondered if she dropped him finally. "What's up?"
"Nothing much, have you seen Fandango anywhere? I can't find him." Summer stepped closer to Seth, wearing a black shimmery dress that barely covered her vital parts and didn't leave much to the imagination. "We came here together and he disappeared…"
Seth was not a fan of Summer Rae, but even he had to admit ditching a woman in a place like this was low. "Did you check the bar?" He suggested, setting his beer down and could see the worry in her brown eyes. "Want me to help you look for him?"
Summer cracked a hesitant smile and started twirling her bleach blonde hair around her finger. "If you wouldn't mind." She took his hand and led him to the dance floor, her eyes searching through the sea of people for her boyfriend. "Do you see him?!"
"No!" Seth shouted back, also looking and grunted when someone pushed Summer against him, his hands instinctively catching her by the hips. "I don't see him anywhere! That's fucked up he left you here!"
Summer nodded, frowning again and turned to leave when she spotted her boyfriend talking to another woman. "Oh my god…" She said it loud enough to catch Seth's attention and felt his arm wrap around her waist from behind to keep her steady.
"Summer…" Seth's mouth was right by her ear so she could hear him without shouting over the music. "You should get out of here and-"
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?"
Seth instantly released Summer and whirled around to face a very irate Liliya, his chocolate eyes growing wide. He had to calm her down and fast, his mind beginning to race and blocked Summer the best he could. "Baby doll…" He began and roared out when Liliya's fist collided with his nose, making him stumble back against Summer.
"SHUT UP!" Liliya shrieked, turning deadly hard gold eyes on Summer and grabbed her by her hair before she could so much as make another step. "YOU STUPID CUNT! I'LL FUCK YOU UP FOR TOUCHING HIM!"
"No – no please! Y-You don't understand!" Summer tried pleading, but it was no use and grunted when Liliya kneed her in the stomach as hard as she could, making her crumble to the ground in a heap.
"YOU'RE GONNA LEARN TO KEEP YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF OF THINGS THAT DON'T BELONG TO YOU!"
Seth was too busy holding his bloody nose to stop Liliya from hurting Summer, trying to fight through the pain, but she had one lethal right hand on her. He watched almost in a trance as fist after fist slammed into Summer's face, the woman being systematically destroyed by his sweet Liliya. The amount of rage in her eyes terrified Seth and he was afraid to touch her, knowing she could take him down with one shot to the nuts if she wanted to. He had to do something though before she went too far and killed Summer Rae, glancing over at a stunned Fandango. Clearly the dancing the idiot wouldn't do anything to save his girlfriend, so Seth would have to be the one to do it. Shooting up to his feet, Seth grabbed both of Liliya's arms and yanked her away from a battered Summer Rae, her face nothing more than a crimson mask. Consumed by rage and seeing only red, Liliya whirled around swinging her fist, connecting with Seth's jaw. That was the second time she struck him and Seth was officially ticked off, shoving her away from him with blazing dark orbs, his upper lip curling in disgust.
"YOU PSYCHO BITCH!" He roared, pointing down at Summer Rae breathing heavily. "LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE! FIND YOUR OWN WAY BACK TO THE HOTEL! I'M DONE WITH YOU!"
All the anger drained from Liliya instantly as she watched Seth storm out of the club and wanted to go after him, but her feet were glued to the carpet. Sirens could be heard in the distance, the owner of the club having called the police along with the ambulance. The bleach blonde lay prone on the floor not moving an inch and all Liliya did was stare down at her, tears streaming down her cheeks. Her hands were full of Summer's blood and she had nobody to blame except herself, knowing she couldn't hide what was going on anymore. She needed help to deal with her problem because she could've committed murder tonight if it hadn't been for Seth.
The police arrived shortly after the ambulance, arresting Liliya for assault and battery, guiding her out of the club while Summer was transported to the local medical facility. The club owner filed a complaint and pressed charges against Liliya, giving his statement on what happened since he witnessed the whole exchange. It was a fit of jealousy and rage, the likes of which he'd never seen. Fandango had snapped out of his shock long enough to join Summer in the ambulance, not believing what happened and hoped his girlfriend survived.
