Everyone was packing up to go. Lynn was dreading it. Going home meant having to tell Roman about her secret. The one she knew was going to break his heart.
"Baby, you ready?", Roman asked, walking back into the room for the final bag.
She nodded and let him take it.
"You okay?", he asked.
"Yeah, just sad this weekend is over. My brother is going to work for you and my sister is going with AJ.", she sighed, sitting on their bed.
He set the bag down by the door and sat beside her, taking her hand and locking it with his.
"Its not goodbye babe. You'll be staying with Hunter, helping him solve his wife and children's death. As soon as the divorce is final, you are moving in and we start our engagement. You get to plan the wedding you've always dreamt of", he said.
She smiled.
"Before I move in, I want that castle cleaned spotless. She was in there", Lynn said.
Roman smiled and kissed her.
"No traces of her", he whispered against her lips.
"Liam", he turned when JoJo called to him.
"Sorry. Yeah?", he said standing.
"Its time to go. I thought maybe you would want to say bye to your sister before she leaves with AJ.", she said.
"What? She's still going with him after I said no", Liam said angry.
JoJo had never seen this side of him. He stood and stepped past her. He stopped when he saw Lynn and Roman kissing by the front door.
"What the hell", he shouted.
AJ and Leslie walked in to hear Liam. He looked at them too.
"This isn't right. You both are acting like some sluts, like you weren't brought up with values", Liam shouted.
"Hey, that's enough Liam. I've let it slide for Lynn, but you are starting to push to far and its pissing me off", Roman shouted, Lynn holding onto his arm.
"Or what Roman?", Liam shouted back.
Seth stepped out of his room, hearing the shouting.
"What's going on?", Seth asked.
"None of your damn business", Liam shouted at him.
"Li", Seth said softly.
"Lynn, take Leslie and JoJo outside. I need to have a word with your brother", Roman said, not taking his eyes off Liam.
"Ro", he stopped her.
"Seth, take them", Roman ordered.
Seth nodded and stepped pasted an angry Liam. AJ stood beside Roman and crossed his arms over his chest. When the girls were out, Roman stepped closer to Liam.
"I don't know what the hell your problem is, but don't you dare disrespect your sisters in front of me.", Roman said.
Liam didn't move a muscle.
"What's going on with you man?", Roman asked.
"Nothing", Liam replied, stepping away from Roman.
"No, its something. This isn't like you, Liam. I know you.", Roman said calmly.
"Your sisters are worried about you, Liam.", AJ added.
Roman nodded. When Liam didn't respond, Roman sighed.
"I love your sister and you know that, you were there for it all. If I could have waited for her, I would have.", Roman said.
"I just met Leslie, and I will be honest, her beauty caught my eye, but her personality kept me. I'm not playing games here, I need a queen and I know she would be perfect for Sapphire region", AJ said.
Roman looked at Liam.
"I just accepted you as my second general. I trust you Liam, but if you can't trust me, this isn't going to work", Roman said.
Liam sighed, feeling completely exhausted from all the anger.
"Can you trust me?", Roman asked, holding his hand out.
Liam looked at it before taking it and shaking hands with Roman.
"Don't hurt my sisters", Liam warned.
"Wouldn't dream of it", Roman said.
"I second that", AJ said.
Seth went to stand with Lynn, who couldn't take her eyes off of the house. She was waiting to hear screams or glass breaking.
"If anyone can talk to Liam, its Roman", Seth said.
Lynn nodded. She turned to look at Seth.
"Something's wrong with him, Seth. I don't know what it is, but he just seems so angry. He got like this once before, my parents sent him to this camp when he was seventeen, and I don't know, he just seemed different", Lynn said.
"I don't know what to say, he broke it off with me. So I know for sure, he's going to be avoiding me at all costs", Seth said.
"At first I thought he was angry at you, but, now I'm starting to think this has nothing to do with you. It might have, at first, but now, I don't know", Lynn said.
"I'll try and speak to him. Maybe I can crack him", Seth said, nudging her gently.
Lynn laughed softly before nodding.
"Thanks", she replied.
When the three men came out unharmed, Lynn exhaled in relief. The last thing she wanted was her brother and her future husband hating each other.
"Everything go okay?", she asked Roman as he approached her.
"Fine. We talked it out", he said.
She nodded. They said goodbye to Leslie and AJ, for now. Her sister was going to spend a week at Sapphire before making her decision.
"Oh, hey Les", Lynn said.
Leslie turned to look at her. Lynn handed her a piece of paper with a man's name written on it.
"He lives in Sapphire, the car that was used to kill queen Stephanie and her girls, the one the twins saw. It belonged to him.", Lynn whispered.
Leslie nodded.
"I'll try to find out as much as I can. I'll email you", Leslie said.
Lynn nodded and waved as her sister and AJ drove off.
Leslie pushed the piece of paper into her wallet. AJ took her hand and smiled.
"Leslie, this is my first and second, Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian. Ever need anything and I'm not around, one of them will be to help you", AJ said.
"AJ speaks about you none stop", Chris said.
"Yeah, I've never seen him so obsessed", Frankie added.
AJ blushed and Leslie giggled.
"Okay guys, I think she gets it", AJ said.
"Well, I can't wait to get to know you two better", Leslie said.
Roman drove to Emerald to drop off Lynn with Hunter. Bayley would be going back to Ruby for now. Liam and JoJo needed the rest of their things before heading to Ruby with Roman, Dean, and Seth.
"I'll see you soon", Roman whispered.
Lynn nodded. They kissed before he got back in his car and driving off. Liam and JoJo followed with Dean and Peyton.
"So, I say we eat and we go over this plan of yours. Tomorrow I'm going to be busy discussing war strategies with everyone in Limbo", Hunter said.
Lynn nodded.
"Sounds good", she replied.
Once they reached Ruby region, Jimmy and Jey helped bring the bags down.
"That vacation was good while it lasted", Dean said.
Roman nodded.
"Liam, JoJo, Aleister will show you to your rooms", Roman said.
Aleister, the man Liam recognized as Seth's boyfriend stepped over to them. He seemed to be glaring at Liam.
"Follow me", Aleister said.
Liam turned to see Seth watching them. Looking between the men. He was taken out of his thoughts when Sasha's car pulled in. She got out, followed by Billie and Zelina.
"Baby", Sasha said happily as she made her way to Roman.
She tried to kiss him, but he pulled away.
"What's this?", Roman asked, noticing the shopping bags from various stores.
"Well, we had time to kill, so we went shopping", Sasha said.
"With the allowance that's given to you, you bought all this?", he asked.
"Well, I might have dipped into a fund or two", she whispered.
"Sasha, I told you, those funds aren't yours or mine. They belong to our people, for emergencies only", Roman shouted.
A few of the guards stopped and tried not to look like they were listening in.
"To my office, now, and bring those damn bags because everything is going back", Roman said.
Dean and Seth took the bags from Zelina and Billie, following Roman and Sasha. She could barely keep up with him. Dean noticed a baby bag. He knew his brother wasn't sleeping with her, so why did she feel the need to buy baby clothes?
Getting to Roman's office, they walked in. Roman slammed the door, making the windows shake.
"I am so done with you. How dare you steal money from Ruby region. Then you show up and flaunt it like its no big deal. Do you have any idea how that makes me look? The people trust me with their lives and you pull this stunt. How long have you been taking money from the funds?", he said.
"I dip every now and then, its no big deal. I replace the money", Sasha said, crossing her arms over her chest and rolling her eyes.
"Pack your damn bags and get your ass to the guest house with your minions. As soon as the divorce is finalized you are out of here for good. You will also pay back whatever funds can't be returned if they don't take these items back", Roman said.
Sasha sat up.
"You can't do that. This is my home too", Sasha yelled.
"Not anymore. Get. Out", he said scarily calm.
She was going to open her mouth again to speak, but stopped when she saw he was getting more pissed. She stood and took a step towards him.
"You're going to regret this. I have my rights too and I will fight you at every turn, making this divorce long and painful. She will never be queen", Sasha said, before walking out and slamming the door behind her.
Roman looked at all the bags.
"Send Ricochet and Aleister to return all this, hopefully we can get all the money back", Roman said.
Dean and Seth nodded before leaving his office. Someone knocked and Liam stepped in.
"Hey", Roman sighed.
"No wonder my sister doesn't like her. Stealing money", Liam said, shaking his head before sitting down.
Roman nodded.
"So what can I do for you?", Roman asked.
"Just wanted to apologize. I seriously don't know what happened", Liam said.
"Liam, you know what happened, but whatever it is, you aren't ready to talk about and that's fine. Just promise that whenever you just need to vent, you'll come to me or Dean, or even Seth. We are here for you and we want to help", Roman said.
Liam nodded.
"Yeah, thanks", Liam said.
Roman nodded and watched him walk out of his office.
