Seth followed Liam out into the hall, leaving Dean and Corey to protect Lynn and Stephanie.

"Babe", he called.

Liam stopped and faced his husband.

"After what he tried to do to you, you continue to pursue him. What if he tried to hurt you again and no one is there to stop him, huh", Liam said.

"I know it was stupid, but I only was around him once, but I did notice he would go in and out of that office. It was obvious", Seth said.

Liam cupped his husband's face.

"I just don't want you to put yourself in danger like that.", he replied.

"I know hun, I won't. I will still away from Aleister. You handle that, and I will stay with Lynn and help JoJo where I can", Seth replied.

He knew that right now, with Roman being arrested, Liam had to pull double duty, along with Dean. Seth staying back and watching the pregnant women would be better.

Liam nodded and kissed him gently. They didn't care who saw and who didn't like it.


They walked out of court, guards around Stephanie and Lynn were on extra watch. Stephanie chuckled when she noticed Ronda and the others around Bayley and Sasha.

"Figures he would bring them back into the fold.", she said.

"I would kill to have seen the expression on her face when you walked in", Lynn whispered.

Stephanie giggled.

"Me too", she replied.

"Queen Reigns, you are more than welcome to come to Sapphire and hold out while Roman proves he's innocent.", AJ said.

Lynn smiled.

"Thank you for the offer, but I think I should stay with my region. They need me right now", Lynn said.

"Spoken like a true Queen", AJ nodded.

"But if you and Leslie would like to come over, I wouldn't mind. I think there are a few things she and I have to talk out", Lynn said.

"I think she would like that too", he replied.

"Don't tell me we missed the party", they all turned at the sound of that familiar voice.

Baron walked in with that swagger he always had, Lacey right behind him while holding a baby. Liam chuckled and walked over to him, shaking his hand and hugging Lacey while taking a peek at the baby.

"Hey B, you remember Seth and Dean", Liam said.

"Yeah, of course", Baron said, shaking their hands.

They walked over to Lacey and said hello to her too.

"Actually, Seth is my husband now", Liam pointed out.

Seth smiled at him.

"I had a feeling, see Lacey I told you", Baron said.

"Yeah right, I told you.", Lacey smirked.

Baron looked at Lynn and even though he still had a smile, it wasn't genuine.

"Lynn", he sent a nod.

She sent one back. Corey raised a brow and stood close to her. Liam didn't miss it.

"Oh, this is Leslie's husband, King AJ Styles of Sapphire", Liam introduced.

"Heard a lot of wonderful things about you. She talks none stop about you. Keep her happy", Baron said, shaking AJ's hand.

"I've recently heard good things about you too. It's nice to finally put a face to the name", AJ replied.

Baron nodded.

"So look, I know you came for my sister, but we really need to talk first. Mind coming with me to Ruby region?", Liam asked.

"Yeah, of course", Baron said.

"Leslie and I will be there in a few. She wasn't feeling well this morning and I didn't want to take the chance and bring her, making it worse", AJ said.

They all nodded.


Liam stopped his sister before she walked into the castle.

"Going to yell at me some more?", she mumbled.

"No. I actually wanted to apologize for that. I shouldn't have yelled, but it just irked me that they are still trying to separate us.", Liam sighed.

She nodded and sat beside him.

"This is what they wanted, for us to hold grudges and be angry with each other. We can't let them win, Lynn. You and Leslie need to work this out and forgive, because if you don't, they still win. That was the point I was trying to make", Liam explained.

"I know", she replied.

"We will always be stronger together than apart", he said.

"I just, I saw the way dad treated her and it was so different from the way he treated us", she said.

He nodded.

"But you forget that we had two parents. You saw one side, but not the other. Trust me, at times it pissed me off too, but then after what I saw…", he stopped.

"What?", she asked.

He looked at her.

"I would rather let Leslie tell you, it's her story. Then you can tell her yours. Trust me, we are all more alike than we thought", Liam shrugged before standing.

Lynn nodded.


Bayley was allowed to see Hunter, which she didn't understand how. The first night they were not allowed visitors and they weren't married. He wrapped his arms around her.

"What's going on?", she asked.

He looked at Sasha and nodded.

"Good, you brought her. We'll need her as a witness", he sighed.

"Yeah, but what's going on?", she asked again.

"We are getting married, here. If we don't you won't be allowed in to see me. Also, you will be protected by Emerald region.", Hunter said.

Bayley nodded.

"I don't know what kind of trip Stephanie is on. First she thinks I had something to do with her death, next thing we know she's going to say I raped her to get her pregnant for an heir.", Hunter said, shaking his head.

"So, you didn't try to have her killed? Everyone else seems so sure, and…", he gripped her arms.

"I want you to listen to me Bay, I would never do that to her or my girls. She's a filthy liar", he growled.

She nodded.

"I believe you", she whispered.

He smiled.

"Good, I love you.", he replied.

"I love you too, and don't worry about Lynn. We will get her and Stephanie back for this. This is their fault", she replied.

"That's my Queen", he whispered, before kissing her.

"Are we ready?", the priest asked.

Hunter nodded.


Leslie and AJ arrived to Ruby region. He had said he had a surprise for her, and also that Lynn would like a word with her. Seth came out and helped her out of the car and inside.

"Thanks", she said.

Peyton greeted her along with Dean. Then they greeted AJ.

"Hey, there she is", she knew that voice and turned to see Baron.

They hugged and he rubbed her back.

"Where is Lacey?", she asked as they pulled away.

"Upstairs getting baby girl to sleep. Trust me if she doesn't have her nap, this whole castle will be filled with screams", Baron said.

She nodded.

"Where's my sister?", she asked.

"On her way, she's with JoJo I think", he said.

"And my brother?", she asked.

"Trying to find Aleister Black", he said.

She nodded.

"AJ filled me in. Roman wouldn't send someone to kill someone else. If anything, I'm sure Hunter has something to do with it. He hates Roman", Leslie said.

"That's what we all think too", Dean replied.

"I'll go get him", Baron said.

Leslie nodded and went to sit by Peyton.

"How are you feeling? I mean, you have two babies growing inside you", Peyton said.

"Better today thankfully", she replied.


Baron went into the meeting room and Liam lifted his head. He sent a nod to him, Corey rolled his eyes.

"Your sister is here", Baron said, rolling his eyes at Corey too.

Liam nodded.

"Corey, let Lynn know", Liam said.

Corey nodded and left the room. Both men bumping each other's shoulders on purpose. Liam raised a brow. Baron joined him.

"Still nothing?", he asked.

"Nope. It's like he vanished without a trace. We had Jimmy and Jey get into Emerald before everyone got back, no sign of him.", Liam said.

Baron sighed.

"What's up with you and Corey? I feel the tension so don't try to deny it", Liam said.

Baron chuckled and told him everything. Liam rubbed his eyes and couldn't believe what he was hearing. It was basically the same thing coming from Lynn's side.

He had trusted both of these men to keep his sisters together and grow their bond, he should have known not to trust that they would.

They took sides without a second thought.

"That's not why I asked you to take care of them", he growled.

"No, you asked me to take care of Leslie and I did.", Baron said.

Liam stood and knocked his chair back, leaning over the table.

"No, I asked you to take care of them. Meaning both, not just one. I counted on you and Corey to form their bond and make it stronger, not tear it apart", Liam yelled.

Baron held his head down.

"I trusted you both. Here I was thinking it was Corey, but it's also you. I should have never counted on either of you", Liam shouted and paced.

"Les needed someone to talk too, she vented to me", Baron said.

"And that's fine, B, just like it was fine for Lynn to vent to Corey, but what you should have done was also encourage her to talk to Lynn. Neither of you did that, and now my family is still a mess and my parents continue to win", Liam yelled.

Baron shrugged.

"What can I do now?", Baron asked.

"Nothing, just like Corey can't do anything. Now I have to fix this, you and Corey just better hope I can, because if I can't both of you will be out of all of our lives.", Liam said.

Baron nodded.

"We should have that talk in here. I hear the King's office is sound proof", Baron mumbled.

Liam nodded.

"Oh we are talking", Liam said, an angry look on his face.


A few minutes later, Leslie, Lynn, and Corey walked in. As soon as they did, they could feel the tension and anger. They slowly and carefully sat down. They all had a sense of why they were here.

"I want you both to tell each other what happened back then", Liam said.

They could see him rolling his shoulders back. Lynn recognized that as a sign of stress and anger. Roman did that a lot when he was angry.

"Can I go first?", Leslie asked softly.

"One of you start", Liam growled.

Leslie looked at Lynn.

"I know you think that dad treated me better and I guess, yeah he did…", Corey cut her off.

"See, she admits it", he said.

"Shut up and let her finish", Baron growled.

"Why don't you make me", Corey pushed back.

"Enough", Liam yelled, making them all jump.

Both women rubbed their bumps.

"No one interrupts either of my sisters, not till I allow you to speak. Listen, that's all I want from all four of you", Liam said, trying to stay calm and not raise his voice again.

He had to remember his sisters were pregnant, no stress needed to be added.

"Understood?", Liam asked.

Everyone nodded.

Leslie continued to explain how their dad treated her differently from them, but their mom was a whole different story.

"I didn't know that", Lynn said softly.

Leslie wiped her cheek and shrugged.

"And I didn't know what was completely going on with dad and you guys. I should have, but I was so scared that he would turn on me too, and then I would have both of them on me. Mom treated you guys way better than she did me, I was angry at you for that.", Leslie said.

"Me too, with your relationship with dad", Lynn added.

"All three of us should have done something, but we were all scared. I just don't want that anger and resentment to continue. Not for our kids", Liam said.

Lynn and Leslie nodded.

"I'm sorry", they both said at the same time.

Liam smiled and nodded.

"Good. I'm sorry too", he said.
