Hello, lovely readers!

Very sorry about the cliff-hanger at the end of the last chapter, but this story is about to reach its almighty crescendo. It's been a mad ride and Ellie is probably now in the worst trouble she's ever found herself in. Lets see what happens, shall we?

Also, this is my last update till after the holidays so I'd like to take the opportunity to wish all my lovely readers a very Merry Christmas. Enjoy whatever you're choosing to do over the holidays and have a wonderful time.

Lilygirl95 – They're one of my favourite couples I've ever written for. I love them both so much.

BeckyLynch'sTheme – Aww thank you! That is honestly so damn sweet of you to say. I appreciate all the love, and I'm so thankful for readers like you. I always worry that I leave it too long between updates but its so hard to keep a regular schedule as I'm writing another story as well as this one at the moment. But I'm happy you're enjoying it.

Debwood-1999 – Yep, it was a major cliff-hanger. We are about to see what happens. I think once upon a time that Ellie would have succumbed to anything Randy did or said, but being with Seth has made her braver and stronger. So we will have to see what happens…

Seth Rollins babe – Thank you

Takerschick – Gotta keep that suspense building lol

LatinaWWEFans – Love that reaction!

SUKY87 – We all know Randy isn't going to be kind here. We will have to see what he does and how Ellie will figure a way out of this.

AKSimons – She's almost like a fourth Shield member in a weird way. But yeah, a swift kick to the balls could be helpful for her

Tantoune – I'm such a meany hehe. I'm not saying anything, you will simply have to read on and find out.

Kina – We knew he was due back at some point. And he's not very happy. How will he react?

Paisley2 – Even if Triple H did something like that, Randy is conniving and very smart. He's dark and untrustworthy. He always manages to find a way to get what he wants.

MsConCon – Here is the much awaited update. What with celebrating Christmas and updating my other story, I managed to get this out. It was only a matter of time before Randy made his next move. He's a dangerous guy, so fingers crossed Ellie can find her way out of this.

Dutchangel1979 – Poor Ellie indeed! You'll have to read on to see what happens.

Elizabeth Chapman's Point Of View

A heavy and tense silence filled the room, not a single murmur being muttered or a single word being sounded. Neither of us moved, an intense stare off taking place between us. My eyes never left his and his never left mine, his blue orbs never blinking, afraid that if he did I'd find a way to move, to leave, and he wasn't taking that chance.

I felt the same, my eyes unblinking. If I did, he could be poised to attack. This was Randy, he only needed a nanosecond to make his move, and I wasn't that foolish to give him that time.

But whilst my exterior seemed calmed and composed, I felt anything but inside. There wasn't a single inch of calmness to be found within me, every nerve on edge, every thud of my heart making me worry it would pounce right out of my chest. I was surprised Randy couldn't see or hear it, the sound echoing in my ears. My stomach was in my feet, a sick and nauseous feeling filling me.

This was the thing I'd fought to avoid.

This was a situation I never wanted to be in.

This was the thing I dreaded the most after how things had ended between us.

Just him and I…

Totally alone.

I swallowed nervously as I looked at him, taking in his form. I'd seen him earlier in the night, but it had been on a TV screen when he gave Seth an RKO in the middle of his match, my worry for Seth too strong for me to really focus on how Randy looked. But now I was here, now he was in front of me and it was just him and I, I could really take him in.

His face was extortionately red and I figured this was due to the anger and rage he was doing a very good job of controlling right now. He stood tall and proud, an intimidating feel to his stature, like he wanted to tower over me and truly show me who was boss. His hands were flexed into fists at his side, ready to attack should he need too.

He gave off a complete air of power and authority and I could tell Randy wasn't here to talk.

He'd always preferred using actions over words anyway.

I tried my best to seem unfazed and strong, but I knew my composure was waning the longer we stood there in silence. I'd never been much of a strong person anyway, always relying on Seth, Roman, Dean, Renee and Charlotte at all times. It wasn't often I was brave by myself.

Even when I confronted Randy in his locker room and I was on my own I didn't feel brave. Its not hard to do something so dangerous when you know the guy you like and two of his friends are outside waiting to come to your aid when needs be.

But none of them were here, and I didn't know when anyone would be back. It was truly just Randy and I by ourselves now.

And Randy knew it.

"W-What the fuck are you doing here?" I asked, being the first one to break the tense silence.

A small smirk graced his lips.

"Language, Elizabeth," he said. "That's no way to greet your boyfriend, is it?"

"Ex-boyfriend," I quickly reminded him.

"Ah, of course," he said. "We had the whole break up talk. It was sweet of you, it really was."

"How did you find me?" I asked, my mouth dry.

"It wasn't hard," he explained. "I always have access to Hunter's office, I can easily obtain any details I want. Plus you know I always have my eyes on you, Ellie. You know I never let you stay too far away."

"Y-You shouldn't be here," I said, trying to give off an air of confidence. "You need to leave now."

"And why would I do that?" he asked, his head tilted to the side. "The door is locked and we are finally by ourselves. No interruptions, no disturbances, no little Shield bastards to barge in. We finally have a chance to talk."

His voice was calm, eerie, creepy beyond hell. I wanted to be sick.

"Since when have you ever talked, Randy?" I asked.

"Since that little cunt stole my woman," he said, taking a step forward, my legs instantly taking a step back. "I want answers. I want you to do the talking."

I let out a deep and steady breath.

"I've said everything I need to," I told him, my head held high. "There's nothing else to say so I'd like you to leave now."

He chuckled to himself. "I suppose you've already given me my answers with everything you've done to hurt me, your actions speak louder than your words after all."

"You would know," I answered back, an eyebrow raised.

"Oh, she's finally got a back bone and is talking back," he said, his arms folded. "I wondered what it would take to toughen you up."

"Seth will be back any moment now," I warned him, my jaw tense.

"Sweetheart, as we saw earlier, I can more than take care of Seth fucking Rollins," he said. "Besides, the door is locked from the inside. He isn't getting in."

I swallowed nervously, hating that Randy had an answer for absolutely everything. This was what made him so conniving and scary.

"Just tell me what you want," I said, trying to delay him as best as I could. The longer I could keep him talking, the more chance there would be of Seth returning to the room and knowing I was in danger.

"I've already said, I want answers," he replied. "Tell me why you left. Tell me why you think that little prick is any better than me." He took another step towards me, my body again instinctively moving back. I gasped as my back touched the wall behind me. I had nowhere else to go. He had me trapped.

"He treats me how I should be treated," I explained. "Like an equal, like a girlfriend."

"And I didn't?" he asked as he came further towards me. "I treated you like a princess. I got you a job. I brought you gifts, showered you with love and affection."

He finally reached me, his hand lifting to tenderly stroke across my cheek.

"And what about the abuse?" I asked. "The beatings, the stranglings? How do you explain those?"

"You brought all those on yourself, sweetheart," he said as his fingers ran down my cheek, caressing the skin on its path until it went down to my neck. "You disobeyed me. And I told you so many times how much I hated you going against my words. I gave you simple instructions. Is it my fault you ignored them?"

His fingers ran along my collarbone until they returned to my neck. Only this time he brought his thumb with them, his hand wrapping around my neck and tightening.

Shit…

"Randy…"

"You know how upset it makes me when you go against my wishes. You know how much it kills when my girl doesn't listen to me." His hands got tighter. "And then she did the ultimate betrayal. She left me. She walked out on me…"

"Y-You're hurting…" I struggled to say.

"And it got me angry, Ellie," he continued, his voice now darker as he shoved his face in front of mine. "It got me mad. Nobody ignores me, nobody goes against my word. You betrayed me, sweetheart, you humiliated me and embarrassed me and I think you need to pay for that."

His hand tightened until I couldn't breath, my throat sore the tighter he squeezed. My eyes widened, my face going redder and redder as I realised I couldn't get air into my lungs.

Oh god…

He pulled me forward then roughly pushed me up against the wall behind me, my head hitting it and I began seeing stars.

Fuck, that hurt…

"Was he worth it, Ellie?" he seethed. "Was that little bastard worth all this? Was he worth leaving me?"

I clawed at his hands, desperate for a way to escape, for a way to make him let go. But I couldn't. His hands were far stronger than mine and I had no chance. My vision began to fade and I knew I was close to passing out. So I did all I could. I played dirty and I brought my knee up, kicking him in the nuts. He instantly let me go, the shock of the attack causing his body to reach for his groin as he bent over in pain.

I could hardly breath and the room was spinning, but I wasn't about to hang around. I ran and tried to move as fast as my weak legs could carry me.

Randy was quicker.

I did not have time to move. Sensing my impending action, Randy grabbed me and tossed me onto the bed beside us with ease, a scream leaving my mouth as his huge form hovered over me, trapping me. His hands grabbed my wrists, pinning me down hard so I had no hope of escape.

Oh lord, what is he doing?!

His hard body pressed down into mine and I could not move, the pressure stopping all my limbs from shifting. My breathing picked up as I began to panic.

"What are you doing? Let me go!" I shouted as I struggled underneath him, kicking my legs as hard as I could.

"I don't fucking think so, Ellie," he growled. "I am not letting you get away from me this time."

He ran his nose along my neckline, his hand instantly grabbing one of my breasts over my top, squeezing hard to the point of pain.

"Stop!" I cried out, my body still struggling.

"Does he touch you like this?" he asked. "Does he make you feel as good as I did?" He squeezed my nipple above the material, a moan leaving his lips. "You still react to me just like you always have."

I felt disgusted, I felt vile, I felt dirty and I had to wonder what his game was, I had to wonder what he was about to do.

What do you think he's going to do? Think about it!

No! Oh god, no. Not that, anything but that. He couldn't… he can't… I won't do that with him… No!

"Let me go!" I cried again before his hand clamped down on my mouth, effectively keeping me quiet.

"Shut the fuck up!" he exclaimed. I felt his leg go between mine as he grinded his hips into my own. I let out a panicked scream, only to have it muffled by his hand. Tears fell from my eyes as his face went to my neck, his vile wet kisses covering it, making me feel used, making me feel gross. I kicked some more, but it did not work.

"This will work a lot easier if you stop struggling, Ellie," he breathed against my neck. "In fact, it can be quite pleasurable if you do. I know how much you used to love me fucking you. Hard, rough, fast. You could be a dirty little bitch when you wanted to."

I wanted to be sick… I could feel the bile rising in my throat and I was dying to scream out for help. I gasped as I felt his tongue dart out and touch my skin, and my whole body shook like crazy in fear. His grip on me tightened as he pressed into me even more and moved his kisses higher. I could feel his erection against my thigh and I knew he was getting turned on by this. He kissed across my collar bone, one of his hands going to my hair.

"You smell… so delicious. I think I'm going to enjoy this," he grinned as one of his hands went to my shirt, ripping it open, the buttons flying everywhere. I let out a squeal, my eyes going wide in fear. He had me exactly where he wanted me. I was lying there for him to see, my bra being the only thing that was allowing me to keep my dignity. I was his for the taking and I could do nothing to stop him. If he wanted me, he was able to have me… and from the frightening look in his eyes, he was going to take me.

Only he never did.

A loud bang sounded from the door behind us. Suddenly, the pressure of his body was gone and Randy was nowhere in sight. I breathed quickly, getting as much oxygen into my lungs as possible. When I turned my head to see what had happened. I saw Randy lying on the floor over on the other side of the room, rubbing his head. I looked up and saw someone in front of me. Their back was to me, their body facing Randy. Their body was crouched in front of me protectively and a growl emitted from my savior's chest.

"Get your fucking hands off of her," shouted a velvety voice and I knew who my savior was immediately.

Seth had come to rescue me.

"Don't come between me and my woman, Rollins," Randy warned as he got back to his feet.

"SHE IS MINE!" Seth growled, getting angrier by the minute, his possessiveness making my heart skip a beat. Oh, I like overprotective Seth! "She is mine and you do not EVER touch her!" And with this, his leapt at Randy, his fists poised to attack.

I screamed as Seth's fist connected with Randy's face, The Viper crashing to the floor, Seth jumping on him immediately, continuing his attack. "Run, Ellie!" he yelled.

Fearing for my life in front of two very angry wrestlers, I wrapped my shirt around me as best as I could and ran for the door, which appeared to have been kicked in, and ran straight out of the room, leaving the fight behind. I sped to the public bathroom on our floor of the hotel as fast as I could, knowing it would be a safe place to hide away from the madness. I finally reached my destination, running inside. Shaking like a leaf, I ran into one of the cubicles, shutting and locking the door behind me, hiding away from the world and away from fight.

All I could do was sob, not caring in the slightest who heard me. Tears streamed from my eyes and I struggled to catch my breath through my cries. I brought my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around myself, hiding in a small ball, out of sight, out of danger. I sniffed my nose and continued to weep.

What had just happened?

He'd attacked me, he'd fought me, he'd almost fucking raped me! Was Randy that angry and that desperate over losing me that he'd resort to something like that? He was sick in the head, he was disgusting. He was the most vile creature I'd ever met if he was disturbed enough to do something as low as that.

If Seth had not come to my rescue, who knows how far Randy would have gotten. I felt so sick and scared that I just could not move. What had I done to deserve being treated like this? Why was he still so intent on making me suffer? Why couldn't I just be with Seth in peace and finally have some happiness in my life?

I heard commotion outside of the bathroom, but I paid no attention to it. I couldn't. I was too absorbed in staying quiet and staying safe that I didn't want to think about anything else but being here. I didn't want to give Randy the chance to find me again, I didn't want to give him the opportunity to finish what he'd started. I heard shouting, I heard yelling, but I ignored it, closing my eyes even tighter.

I sat there for ages, not wanting to see anyone or do anything, fearing for my life now more than ever.

That's when I heard the door to the bathroom open. I suddenly heard a knock on my closed cubicle door and I tensed up, panic flooding my entire body. I clasped my hand over my mouth to stop myself from screaming and my body began to shake even more than it already was. What if it was Randy? What if he was back to finish the job?

"Ellie?" came Seth's voice, the most amazing sound I could have heard at that moment, and I immediately relaxed. I could see his feet under the door and knew it was him. I cautiously stood up and unlocked it, opening it to see him standing there. His hair was messy, a few cuts and scrapes on his body. I could see a bruise forming around his left eye, but it was still him. He offered me a smile and held his hand out to me. Without a second's hesitation, I took his hand and leapt into his arms.

He sat us on the floor and gathered me into his lap, cradling me against his chest whilst he rocked me and allowed me to cry my heart out. I hid my face in his neck and wept. I was crying now not only out of fear, but out of pure and utter relief. I was not alone anymore and I had been saved. Seth had come to my rescue, being my hero and helping me when I really needed it. I owed him everything.

"Shhh…" he hushed me gently."I'm here, you don't have to be scared anymore."

I continued to cry as he continued to hold me, comforting me and soothing me, kissing my head and my cheek. Finally, my tears eventually died down enough so that I could speak.

"You… you s-saved me," I said with a broken voice. "You stopped him."

"Of course I did," he said as he stroked my cheek. "Did you doubt me? You know I'll always be there when there's danger."

"W-Where's Randy?"

His jaw tightened and his eyes darkened slightly at the mention of the other man's name. "He's in police custody."

Hang on… What did he say?

I looked up at him in astonishment. "W-What?"

"We made a lot of noise back there. Dean and Roman managed to hear from their rooms. Dean rushed in to help me whilst Roman went to get help. Hotel security followed him up and grabbed Randy and took him away."

Well that explains the loud commotion I heard…

"So… he's gone?" I asked.

"Yes," he nodded. "The police arrived a matter of minutes ago and they took Randy away. Dean and Roman are talking to them now, explaining what's been going on. You're safe now. He won't hurt you again, Love."

"I don't believe it," I replied, wrapping my arms around Seth's waist and holding him to me.

I couldn't believe it, I genuinely couldn't. This was crazy.

He continued rocking me. "It's all true, sweetheart. Randy's gone."

"He's stopped… He's actually stopped," I said, trying my hardest not to cry again.

"I'm just glad I stopped him in time. I don't know what I would have done if he'd have done anything to you," said Seth, his arms subconsciously holding me tighter.

I smiled at his concern and held him close. "Just saving me was enough."

"I love you too much no to save you, sweetheart. I would save you for a thousand lifetimes if I had to," he chuckled.

I cuddled against him, my head not truly comprehending all that I'd heard.

Randy had been stopped. He was in police custody. No more attacks, no more threats, no more worrying that he's out there ready to get me. He was gone.

He was gone…
