Ch 30
Glen and John rushed backstage to help Mark look for Lisa. They were running through the halls when they ran into Adam.
"What just happened out there? The damn show was over Paul wasn't suppose to return to the ring after the match," Adam asked joining them.
"When does Paul ever follow directions," Glen said as they pushed the door open to Mark's locker room. "Did you see his face at the beginning of the match? He was pissed off beyond belief."
"I don't give a damn how pissed off he is we have to find my sis before he takes it all out on her," John was getting worried as they left Mark's locker room not finding him there.
"Mark is probably with …" Glen started to say stopping when he saw Mark slumped against some boxes. "Mark!"
They all ran to his side as he slowly stirred opening his eyes. He reached behind his head feeling a lump forming.
"Mark, are you ok?" Adam asked helping Glen pick him up.
"Yeah, where is Lisa?" Mark looked around feeling dread not seeing her.
"I think we better head to the hotel and see if Paul took her there," Adam said as Mark tried to steady himself.
"I'm going to kill that son of bitch if he hurts her," Mark groaned ignoring the pain from his head.
"You'll have to wait in line," John blurted out.
Lisa curled up in a ball in the corner of the limo while Paul ranted and raved about her being a slut. She didn't care about what he was saying all she could think about was Mark. She kept seeing Paul hitting him from behind with a bat over and over again in her mind.
"Are you listening to me you cheating lying bitch," Paul grabbed a handful of her hair pulling her towards him.
"Stop you're hurting me," Lisa tried to break his grip.
"Hurting you? Look what you have done to me tonight," Paul let her go staring at her with intense anger. "My future wife has embarrassed me with your almost pornographic entrance then to make it even worse you let them film it like you were Mark's girl. You're mine damn it, don't you understand that."
"Paul, you're being ridiculous. I don't write the storylines go take it out on the writers not me," Lisa stood up to him not willing to listen to his complaints.
"You don't exactly seem upset about it. You're enjoying getting all snuggly with Mark and using work as an excuse," Paul glared at her. "Damn it I was almost convinced you weren't sleeping with him when you proved you were staying with John instead of him but now I know Mark is banging you."
"He is not," Lisa quickly said as Paul stared into her eyes disappointed to see she was telling the truth. He was going to say something when the driver stopped at the hotel. Lisa quickly flung the door open hurrying into the hotel. Paul caught up to her jerking her arm back roughly.
"Don't pull anymore shit tonight. You're staying with me and we are going to make up all night," Paul glared at her whispering quickly not to draw attention to them. Lisa was going to argue but she felt defeated knowing it would just lead to more trouble. Paul held onto her arm as he checked them in canceling her room. "Come on now." Paul pulled her towards the elevator when she hesitated. She was trying to think of every way to get away from him as he opened the door to the suite.
"I can't stay here with you," Lisa gathered up her courage.
"I said no more shit," Paul went to the mini bar mixing a drink. "Just go change into one of those skimpy little outfits you obviously love so much and come to bed."
"No I won't. I'm not sleeping with you. I'm leaving now," Lisa went towards the door.
"Stop!" Paul yelled hurtling the glass in her direction shattering it on the door making slivers rain down on her. Lisa turned staring at him with fear she never felt before. "I guess you changed your mind and you're staying. I always knew you were a smart girl."
Oh God I pushed him too far this time, she thought her heart was beating out of her chest. Paul ignored her for a moment getting another drink huffing and puffing. I have to get away, she thought feeling for the handle of the door behind her. She found it fumbling to open it before he turned around. She pulled the door open as he turned.
"Oh no you don't," Paul rushed towards her as she hurried out into the hall. She didn't get far before he grabbed her roughly slamming her into a wall numerous times knocking the wind out of her. The pain surged as pushed her again into the wall. "Why do you have to make this so rough on yourself?" Paul tormented her grabbing her chin squeezing it hard.
"I'm leaving you Paul, its over!" she yelled ignoring the pain. "I will not let you treat me like this. We are through and if you ever touch me again it will be the last thing you do." Paul started to laugh slamming her into the wall again.
"You're mine and you're not going anywhere," Paul firmly said as she went to move away from him.
"Screw you Paul, rot in hell," Lisa pushed him away with all the strength she could. Paul's laughter continued as he slapped her across the face. Lisa almost lost her balance from the force of his blow. He hit her again knocking her almost to the floor.
"Don't you ever talk to me like that again. You cause all this with your slut behavior so deal with the consequences," Paul grabbed her roughly by the hair as she started to sink to her knees. Suddenly she heard a commotion as Paul was pulled off of her. She almost collapsed to her knees as John caught her. She looked up to see Mark pounding on Paul as Adam and Glen tried to restrain him.
"Mark stop he isn't worth going to jail over," she cried out stopping Mark immediately. Mark wanted to kill Paul at that moment and it took every ounce of his strength to stop.
Lisa stared at Mark making him silently realizing how much she needed him at the moment. He went to her wrapping his arms around her as she broke down crying against his chest.
"Its ok I'm here and that bastard is never going to touch you again," Mark kissed her forehead as Adam and Glen dragged Paul into his room.
"This isn't over angel. I'm going to make you come back to me like I have always done before. The pain you feel now is nothing compared to what you're going to feel," Paul called to her as they threw him into the room slamming the door. Lisa started to tremble violently in Mark's arms. He quickly picked her up carrying her to the safety of his room while Adam, John, and Glen made sure Paul stayed away.
