I'm back again. I really wanna thank you all for reading this story and loving it. I know it's hard to deal with a subject that's still taboo, but you embraced it and gave me the kind words to keep me going. I love you all for that.

BTW, I'm watching SmackDown and I found out who's gonna face Batista at the Great American Bash. Wait for it...Mr. Kennedy...Kennedy! It doesn't matter, anyway; my baby will still kick his ass!

Enjoy and happy reading!

Lots of love, hugs and kisses from your resident writer and friend, Nina!

Author's note: as I mentioned in the last chapter, things will get hot and steamy between Hunter and Lita. And, on a side note, the attack and the pregnancy happened back in 2005. Lita gave birth to Melissa in January of this year. BTW, I'm pushing Edge and Torrie's wedding towards the next chapter.

On another side note: no DX reunion at this time. And, no, Shawn Michaels and Vince McMahon was not in a feud. That never happened.

Three months later...March 14, 2006

"Hey, everyone," Amy said as she walked in the locker room, pushing Melissa in her stroller.

"Hey," the gang responded with warm hugs and genuine smiles. They all gathered around her; some that were hugging her and the others were making cute faces with Melissa, who was giggling. Hunter, in particular, was making goofy faces which made her laugh. Amy was glad her friends loved her little girl.

"How you've been doing?" Torrie asked. She and Stacy was on the couch painting their toenails.

"Absolutely great. Being at home with Melissa was a joy but I'm glad to be on the road again with my friends. Plus, my daughter kept asking about you all," Amy beamed.

"Aww," they all said.

"Where's Lillian?" Amy asked.

"She's with Rocky, probably starting a family already. That girl just can't keep her hands off of him," Trish laughed out loud. She was sitting on Cena's lap.

She grinned foolishly. "Well, I have to go and meet Vince; see if he can put me back on the schedule. Will one of you watch Melissa for me?"

"Torrie, Trish and I will. Randy, John and Adam are going over their six man tag team match tonight," Stacy jumped in. She went over to the stroller and picked Melissa up.

"Great. I'll be right back," she said before she kissed Melissa on her cheek and walked out the door. She barely took two steps when she felt two strong arms being wrapped around her waist, yanking her back against him. She giggled with delight when he started placing feathery kisses on her neck and shoulders, making her moan. When she managed to turn around, she stood face to face with none other than Hunter Hearst Helmsley.

"Boy, you could've given me a heart attack or something," Amy said. She still was giggling.

He leaned over and planted a searing kiss on her lips, then pulled back and looked deeply in her brown eyes. Damn, she was so beautiful.

"I'm so sorry, baby. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to get you alone," he said, pouting his lips.

She could help but smile. "It's okay. I was on my way to see Vince, by the way."

"You're just in luck; so am I. He wants to put me in a new storyline," he said with a wink. Then he offered his hand for her to hold in, for which she did and intertwined her fingers with his.

"Let's go," she said with a smile on her face. As they were leaving, a male figure appeared from around the corner and he was seething. He looked at them with disgust, but a evil smile crept up on his face when he saw her. It's been a long time since he saw her and, he must admit, she was even more beautiful than ever.

So she thinks she can get away from me and just move on with our child, huh? Well, I'm planning on changing that. I'll let her go for now, but, soon, very soon, I'm gonna make her my wife. She won't know what's gonna hit her, he thought as he laughed menacingly. Then, before anyone could see him, he disappeared.

(A/N: I think you know who that is! Don't worry, we're getting closer and closer to revealing the identity of the attacker. And, how did he find out about Melissa, anyway? Don't worry, you'll find out in due time.)

Two hours later...Showtimeཀ

"Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome back to RAW, Lita!" Lillian Garcia-Johnson announced with a huge smile on her face.

The crowd was on their feet and cheered for the sexy redhead, who came out pushing Melissa in her stroller. She waved to her adoring fans as she walked down the ramp, smiling. It felt so good to be back again after being away for so long. By the time she got to the ring, one of the security people picked the stroller with Melissa up and placed it in the ring. Lita smiled at him before she made her way up on the apron. When she got inside the ring, some of boys in the audience whistled in approval, mainly because she was wearing a black buttoned down shirt, a black halter top underneath it and matching black shorts and knee high boots. The same security man handed her a microphone before he stepped out and assumed his position at ringside.

"Damn, it feels so good be back where I belong!" Lita said into the microphone.

The crowd cheered.

She smiled brightly as she continued, "Now, as you all know, I was away for a while because I had some...personal issues to take care of. But, I had never forgotten about you all. And, I'm out here tonight to thank you for being there for me when I needed you the most. Your thoughts, prayers, letters, phone calls and gifts have giving me a new lease on life. Because of the love you guys had shown me, I decided to show my love for you by introducing you to my little bundle of joy."

Lita reached down and picked Melissa up in her arms. The little girl clung to her mother and laid her head against her mother's shoulder. The crowd yelled "Aww" to them being so content with each other. Lita just smiled sweetly at her fans.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, I would like to introduce to you my daughter, Melissa Christine Marie Anne Dumas," she introduced, smiling again. Melissa waved at the fans and giggled.

Just then, Triple H's 'Time To Play The Game' blasted through the speakers. Lita looked confused when he came out through the curtains, wearing an Italian leather jacket and matching leather pants. She literally drooled when he made his way to the ring. When he climbed inside, he winked at her for a second before he grabbed the mike away from her.

"Wonder why I'm out here, little mama? Well...I was in the back watching the monitors and I couldn't help but hear your sweet voice as you were speaking. So, I decided to come out here because I have a confession to make," Hunter said.

"And what kind of confession do you have to make?" Lita asked.

"My confession is this...I love you, girl. I'd always had feelings for you and now that you're back with us, I figured it was now or never. So, how do you feel about that, baby?" he asked softly. He held the microphone steadily in his hand as he waited for her answer.

"I-I don't know what to say," Lita admitted. Sure, it was just a storyline, but she didn't think he would come right out and say it. And, to make this situation more interesting, he didn't appear to be nervous.

"You don't have to say anything. I just wanted to let you know how I feel about you," he said. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, she quickly (but carefully) put Melissa back in her stroller, grabbed his arm, yanked him against her and planted a searing kiss on his lips. The crowd went nuts as he wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her in the air. He twirled her around in his arms before he sat her down, then he reached down and picked Melissa up in his arms. The little girl wrapped her small arms around his neck.

"King, do we see a one, big happy family here?" Jim 'JR' Ross asked with a chuckle.

"I do see Lita's puppies! Woo hoo!" Jerry 'The King' Lawler raved, sweating profusely.

Little did they know, Lita's attacker was sitting right behind them. And, from the furious expression on his face, he was not a happy camper.

I have to stop this before it goes too far, he thought, anger boiling in his veins. I'm not gonna lose her to a washed up, steroid taking, trash talking asshole!

After the show...Amy's hotel room...

With Melissa sleeping in her arms, Amy rocked back and forth in her bed, singing her daughter a lullaby. A smile crept up on her face when she felt her daughter's breath on her skin. Sensing Melissa didn't wanna be disturb any longer, she quietly got up from the bed and placed her daughter down in the crib the hotel was so kindly able to provide.

She leaned down and planted a kiss on her daughter's forehead, then she tiptoed out of the room, careful not to wake her up again. She closed the door behind her quietly, then she leaned against it, sighing deeply. I love my daughter but I never thought motherhood could be this tough, she thought with a laugh. Just as she was about to climb in the bed and go to sleep herself, there was a faint knock on the door. Just for any safety precautions, she reached inside her purse for her handgun.

"Who is it?" Amy called out.

"It's me, Hunter," he called back.

Sighing in relief, she put her handgun back in her purse and climbed out of bed. After two quick steps, she opened the door.

"Are you okay? You sounded paranoid for a second," he said, laughing as he stepped inside.

"Ha, ha. Very funny. Just what are you doing here at this time of night anyway?" she asked as she closed the door and locked it tightly. You just never know who's gonna show up.

"I'm here to check up on you and Melissa. Is she asleep?"

"She fell asleep just a few minutes ago. You should've seen her. She looked so peaceful in my arms," she said, smiling brightly.

Hunter sat on the edge of the bed. He then motioned for her to sit on his lap, for which she did.

"Have you been having nightmare lately?" Hunter whispered in her ear.

Amy nodded her head. "But, they have become fewer and fewer. I have you and I have my friends to protect me now."

"I'm glad." he leaned over and planted a searing kiss on her lips. She wrapped her arms around his neck and responded. Before long, he parted her lips and slipped his tongue in her mouth. A soft moaned escaped her mouth when he tore his lips away from her and started nibbling on her neck gently, which sent shivers up and down her spine. His hands reached under the shirt she wore and caressed her back, sending her down to a delicious ecstasy she didn't wanna detox from.

"You know that I want you, right?" Hunter whispered as he nibbed on her earlobe gently.

"Yes, I do," Amy admitted. She wanted him just as well.

"You know, any other time, I would make love to you all night long." he was beginning to pull away from.

She was confused. "Well, what's stopping you, Hunt?"

"Don't get me wrong, Ames. I want you. I want you so damn bad. But, I don't want you to assume that I'm a monster or anything. If and when I make love to you, I want you to experience pure pleasure. I want you to be satisfied. Don't you see where I'm going with this?"

"You really care about my feelings, don't you?"

He pulled her back in his arms and planted a kiss on her forehead. She laid her head against his shoulder and felt his heartbeat.

"I want you to know one thing. I love you so much, girl. What I said back at the arena, I meant every word I said. You're my everything and Melissa's a joy to have in my life. Every time I see her, I get butterflies in my stomach. And, every time I see you, my heart beats madly. That's why I can't make love to you right now, Amy. I have way too much respect for you," Hunter explained. Then he kissed her forehead.

Amy sighed deeply. "I guess you're right. Now it's not the time for me to just rush into sex. I mean, I have my daughter and I'm still recovering from the rape. Not to mention, he still could be anywhere. I'm just taking it day after day."

He leaned over and kissed her again, then he pulled back and placed her on the bed.

"I'm so glad you agreed to take things slow. But, when you do go to sleep tonight, imagine me laying by your side with my arms around you."

Melissa's room...

He couldn't help but look at the child he created. She looked just like her mother. From her brown hair (since Amy's a natural brunette) to her big brown eyes, Melissa was a living, breathing replica of her mother. And it made him smile...for a while.

But, then, that asshole wrestler had to reveal he loved her. No one loves her but him. He made her scream out his name that night. He followed her around and made sure she didn't get romantically involved with someone else. He wanted her all to himself. And when he saw her being held in his arms, he just wanted to run up there and kill the bastard. But, he knew he was gonna get her. Soon.

Don't worry, Angel. Your mother and I will be together again real soon, as husband and wife, he thought with a smile on his face.

Important announcement: I may reveal the identity of the attacker in the next chapter. And, Amy will have to face him one way or another. That's gonna happen real soon! Stay tuned!
