"Getting straight to the point. Kane, how do you plead?", Paul asked.
Kane stood, his hands cuffed in front of him.
"Not guilty", he smirked, before sitting.
"Not guilty? You and your brother had my daughter and granddaughters killed", Vince growled.
"Did we? Or was it your son in law?", Kane asked, shrugging.
Vince clenched his hands tight. His face red from anger.
"So then tell us your side of the story, because we would love to hear it. Everything seems to involve King Hunter", Kurt said.
"Gladly", Kane smirked.
Lynn could tell Hunter was getting agitated being brought up every time.
"We were having a few drinks in Limbo after hitting the strip club. He got his dick wet by a few of the women there. See, his wife wasn't giving it up", Kane chuckled.
Vince slammed his hand on the table.
"Don't talk about my daughter that way", he growled.
"Vince", Paul said.
Vince sat back down.
"Those aren't my words, they are Hunter's", Kane said.
Vince glared at Hunter, who shifted in his seat.
"Anyway, after a bit he started saying how his life would be better if Stephanie no longer existed. We offered him a hand and he took it", Kane said.
Hunter suddenly stood and pointed at Kane.
"You lying son of a bitch", he shouted.
"Settle down. King Hunter, you have no right to speak up that way", Paul shouted at him.
"Trying to bring me down to get your asses out of the fire, are you fucking kidding me", Hunter shouted, ignoring Paul.
"Sit down, Hunter. Now", Vince yelled.
Hunter kept his eyes on Kane, who in return smirked at him. Bayley stood and grabbed Hunter's arm. He harshly pulled it away.
"You're going to get yours", Hunter said to Kane.
"Like you had Bray and Bo killed", Kane shot back.
Everyone started whispering louder.
"Enough", Kurt yelled.
Everyone calmed down. Hunter finally sat, he set his hand on Bayley's leg.
"Kane, accusing someone of something they didn't do could add more years to your sentencing", Paul said.
"Didn't do? Of course he did it, he did it all. Look at all the whores he has living in his castle now.", Kane said.
Everyone's eyes flashed to Emerald region. Lynn slid down in her seat, that was the last thing she needed to be accused of. Roman sent her a sympathetic look.
"Try telling me he isn't the same person he was when I knew him. Vince, you know what I'm talking about", Kane said.
Vince glared at Hunter. If looks could kill.
"Do you have proof?", Kurt asked.
"Of course not. His daddy was always hiding his screw ups for him. Stephanie knew, its why he killed her", Kane said.
Hunter shook his head and looked at Shawn. His friend gestured for him to calm down.
"Looks like we might need a break, a very long break. We pick this up again tomorrow", Kurt said.
"If he doesn't order a hit on me and my brother tonight. If I'm dead in the morning, Hunter and Shawn did it", Kane said.
Hunter sighed and glared at Kane as they walked him away. Shawn sat beside him.
"You need to not react, you are giving him what he wants. Now you look guilty", Shawn whispered, while scanning the room.
"What did you expect me to do? Let him sit there and talk shit. That was my wife and kids, and now he is trying to ruin me", Hunter replied.
"If you think they won't look into us now, you have another thing coming. You better hope your dad got rid of our little trips, well.", Shawn said.
They stood and started to walk out. Hunter noticed as Lynn went over to Roman and hugged him.
"Son of a bitch", he growled.
He made his way over, Jimmy, Jey, Dean, and Seth stopping him.
"Lynn", Hunter growled.
Lynn faced him.
"What the hell are you doing?", he asked.
"Going home", she replied.
"We had a deal", Hunter said.
"We did, but you lied to me, about everything. You cheated on your wife. I wanted to help you so you could find closure from her death, but now I find out you might have had something to do with it", she said.
He shook his head no.
"I didn't. Don't you see, they are just trying to make me look bad. They don't want to get caught. Its what they do", Hunter said.
"It doesn't matter anymore, I am done and I'm going home", Lynn said.
Roman wrapped his arm around his wife. Hunter noticed the ring.
"Are you fucking kidding me", Hunter shouted.
Everyone in the hall stopped and watched them. Roman didn't let it faze him. He squeezed her hip and she relaxed.
"My wife, is coming home with me", Roman said.
Roman nodded and pulled Lynn gently to follow. Dean walked backwards, making sure Hunter didn't have any of his men attack Roman and Lynn.
Once in the car, Lynn kissed her husband.
"About time", Roman whispered.
She smiled.
"Now what?", Dean asked, as Seth drove.
"I tried to find Stephanie, I just hope Torrie gives her the message", Lynn said.
"How sure are you that she will?", Seth asked.
"Someone other than the people she trusted knows she's alive. She's going to want to find out who. I met her once, briefly, and her daughter.", Lynn said.
Marie got into Ruby and made her way towards the castle. The guards were coming in and out. She needed to figure out a way to get close enough to where she didn't have to reveal herself too much.
"Can I help you?", a guard asked.
She looked down.
"I need to speak to the Queen. Roselynn Reigns", she said softly.
"How did you know my sister is the Queen? They didn't tell anyone", he asked, gun pointed at her.
She looked around.
"I know, because she came looking for me.", she whispered.
She finally looked up at him and removed her hood a bit.
"Your highness", he whispered.
"Please, call me Marie, for now", she replied.
"Of course", he replied, looking around.
He gently took her arm and into the castle.
"My name is Liam. The King is on his way now. I'm sure we can find a way to get my sister here", Liam said.
She nodded. He took her to Roman's office. The safest place in the castle.
"You'll be safe here", Liam said.
"Thank you", she replied.
"Would you like something to drink or eat?", he asked.
"Oh no, I'm fine", she replied.
"Did you hear about the trials?", he asked.
She nodded.
"But that's not why I came out of hiding. I heard your sister was looking for me. Then I heard she was in danger and so was King Roman. The last thing I want is for anyone else to get hurt", she replied.
He nodded.
"She wanted to help him find your killer, turns out it was him the whole time", he chuckled.
"Tell me about it", she replied.
He stood.
"I'm going to go check if he is here, I'll be right back", he said.
She nodded. He made his way down and watched as Roman walked in with Lynn.
"What's going on?", he asked.
"I am officially home", Lynn smiled.
Liam hugged her.
"Good. Now I get my husband back", Liam said, moving over to Seth and kissing him.
"You're welcome", Lynn said.
"Oh and, you have a surprise in the office", Liam said.
"For Roman? I swear if its Sasha…", Lynn said.
Liam chuckled. Roman kissed the side of her head.
"Just go look", Liam replied.
Lynn and Roman did just that. Dean went with them. They were surprised to see Stephanie there.
"Hi, I hear you've been looking for me", she said.
Hunter had destroyed his office. Shawn watched from the side, unfazed.
"Are you done?", he finally asked.
"I should have never asked her for her help", he sighed.
"You liked her, wanted her close. How would you know she would find all this out", Shawn said.
"What do we do now?", Hunter asked.
"Nothing. Its our word against theirs. I mean, do you think anyone would really believe them with their track record. Just don't lose your cool anymore", Shawn replied.
Hunter nodded.
