A/N: I don't own anyone in WWE or TNA.

Esha Napoleon- Thanks for the review!

A/N: I am making Zoe to be a strong woman who is doing whatever it takes to stay alive, so don't think she is a complete whore.

Paul POV

The rest of the day went by quickly and I waited until the palace was sleeping to sneak out and meet at the school. I walked to the bottom and found Punk, Evan, and Kofi (one of his gladiators) with him.

"We are all here for the same reason?" I asked them and they nodded.

"We need a real emperor, not a tyrant." Punk said and we all agreed.

We spent an hour talking about different ways it could happen. We decided that we couldn't trust anyone, but it had to be done quickly before Dave killed or hurt more people.

I was leaving when a hooded figure came into the school. We all drew swords, except for Punk.

"Put them down." He said as the figure got closer to us and I saw the person take off the hood. I realized it was Zoe and I was surprised that she had snuck out of the palace.

"What are you doing here?" I asked her as she walked closer.

"I needed to see Punk." She said and they kissed. I realized they did have feelings for each other and I knew that Dave didn't want them seeing each other right now.

"I will wait for you." I told her.

We all waited until Zoe reappeared and I snuck both of us into the palace. I walked her to her room and we both went in.

"You know you are playing a dangerous game." I told her.

"Well, if the penalty is death; I welcome it." She said and I just hugged her. I knew that she was miserable and I would be too, if I was her.

Dave POV

The next day I was going to the school and Zoe was coming with me; I wasn't letting her out of my site because I didn't want her sneaking off. She wasn't talking to me and she wasn't going to make it easy for me to deal with her.

We arrived at the school and I had her sit with David and Kofi while I was going to take care of the opposition and practice my skills. I was practicing and I had Punk I the arena with me, so that he couldn't be up there with Zoe. I wanted them apart.

I was fighting and I got cut down my arm. I wasn't happy and I was done practicing. I had Zoe brought to me and we were going to the baths. She was going to take care of my arm and I wanted to relax.

We got there, I stripped, and got into the bath. I had Zoe brought to me and she was not happy at all.

"Fix my arm." I told her and pulled her down to sit on the floor beside the bath.

"You are an ass." She said and I slapped her.

"Fix my arm." I told her and she started to clean it and fix it. I realized that I had fun watching her hate me.

She cleaned it and stitched it as best she could. I looked at it and she was starting to get away from me. I grabbed her and pulled her into the water. She was so mad at me when she came up from under the water.

"I hate you." she growled at me and started to get away from me.

"I know." I said in her ear.

Zoe POV

I was so mad because I was soaking wet and he wasn't going to let me go. I realized that he enjoyed hurting and torturing me.

"Why do you enjoy watching me be unhappy?" I asked him and I tried to get of his grasp.

"Because you fight back; you don't just let it go." He said.

"You should hate that not like it." I said and I was almost out of his grasp.

"Give up." He said and I splashed him and he let me go.

I tried to get away and he grabbed me and pulled me on his lap. I was trying to get away when I felt something very hard against my leg and I realized that I could make him be as uncomfortable as I was. I had a free hand and I grabbed him. He groaned and looked at me.

"What are you doing?" he asked me.

"Making you as uncomfortable as I am." I whispered back and he smiled.

"You are going to have to fix it." He said and I smiled.

"No, I'm not and if you ever want me to stop hating you then you aren't going to make me." I whispered to him.

"What if I like it when you hate me?" he asked me.

"Then you are even more evil than I could have imagined." I told him and we were looking at each other when his lips crashed down onto mine. I was now struggling even more to get away from him.

He pulled away and pull me so close to him that I could feel his hard self somewhere else.

"I will make you a deal, you give me what I want and I will give you to Punk early." He said and started to lower me onto him. I was struggling not to give him what he wanted.

"How early?" I asked him.

"Next week." He said.

"You lie to me and I will kill you." I whispered to him and I sank onto him.

He stifled a groan as he bit down onto my shoulder.

Paul POV

I was walking through the palace when I passed Jeff carrying Zoe, who was wrapped in sheets and sleeping.

"What happened?" I asked him.

"They just got back and apparently Dave wanted her to take a bath." He said and I rolled my eyes.

"I need to talk to her when she wakes up." I told him and I saw her shift in his arms.

"I will just come with you." I told him and we all went to her room. She was awake by the time we got to her room.

"Zoe, I need to talk to you." I told her and she nodded.

She disappeared behind her screen and changed while I sat down.

"What?" she asked when she came out.

"We are working on a plan to kill Dave." I said and she looked at me.

"I just made a deal with him so let me do it." She said and I was shocked.

"What kind of deal?" I asked her.

"If I give him what he wants; I will be Punk's sooner." She said and I hugged her. I knew that she wanted away from him so bad.

"Are you sure?" I asked him.

"I am dead anyways." She replied and I knew that she was right.

I talked to her until dinner and she joined Maria and me in the garden. Dave was entertaining other guest and we didn't care.

Zoe POV

I finished eating with them and I went for a walk when Eric came up to me.

"Come on, Dave needs you." he said.

I walked into Dave's room and he was already lying on the bed. I stripped and joined him; he didn't take long. I didn't enjoy it and it was purely mechanical; not emotional. I was leaving when he stopped me.

"You know at one time I hoped that we could have been more." He said.

"And at one time I hoped that I could have been happy." I told him.

"Punk is waiting in your room." He said and I left.

I walked to my room and Punk was waiting on the balcony. I felt so dirty and I hated it. I started to cry and Punk just held me.

"I feel awful." I told him.

"It's ok, Zoe, you are doing what you have to in order to be happy and stay alive. I don't think any less of you and I still want you." he said and I just looked at him.

I kissed him and I felt so much from him when I kissed him. I realized that I was going to be ok as long as I had Punk with me.
