A/N: Still don't own any of the WWE characters.

Lanay leaned back on her elbows waiting for him to explain himself. Please just say it so I won't be put through the agony of killing you again.

"I was meeting with the guys Hunter gave you to kill so I could get a feel on them to make sure what kind of danger you could possibly be in." Seth eyes still held her as she looked on.

"You were watching me?" Lanay pushed him off of her. "You think I'm that fragile I need the strong man to protect me?"

"It wasn't that I didn't think you could but I needed to make sure it wasn't a setup or anything."

"So you willingly put yourself and me in danger because you didn't trust I could handle it? When I have shown that I couldn't, other than that ONE night and with you? I can't believe this shit." Lanay pushed him off her as she paced the room looking at him. "I don't need you protecting me, I never did. Stop treating me like a fucking child. Damn. I can't believe you've been watching me this much all these years."

"Lanay shut up and think for once." Seth yelled out grabbing her arms. "Shut up! I fucking love your stubborn ass I didn't trust what Hunter and Stephanie were doing, neither of them, so yes! I took matters into my hands and eyed every fucking person they sent you after. I did the shit for you to make sure you weren't walking into a fucking setup." He lowered his voice but didn't let go of her hands. "Understand me, understand how much I love you."

"You can't throw around the word 'love' every time we disagree. You do that often and it needs to stop today. I just want you to know I don't need you protecting me and why are you just now telling me this?"

"I feel like it needs to be known now, this might be our last mission together taking down Hunter."

"Our last?" Lanay ignored the taking down Hunter part, she was going to fulfill her promise and end this back and forth between them.

"Anything can happen between now but I won't let it be to you." He whispered the last words.

Lanay shuddered as his head dipped and his mouth went to her neck again kissing her softly. "I will throw myself at a bullet for you. I will take any punishments that you or anyone else gives me as long as it'll keep you safe."

"Stop it. Stop making me feel this. We are killers, you're too good for this world. Leave town Seth, please." The pleas she gave were genuine, she didn't know was going to happen once she brought Stephanie back but she could feel the emotions in every word he said. He kissed her neck again pulling away slowly. She felt herself staring into his eyes again. "Just leave."

"He sent you on a mission, didn't he? I know Hunter I trained under him. He wants you to kill me again or possibly Stephanie." His eyes narrowed looking at her.

"No. Not yet at least." The lie came out too quickly but this time it broke her heart.

"We don't have much time. Roman and I are working on getting Stephanie away from all this and us running her portion. Roman and I are going to take Hunter down.

Stop telling me this Seth, please stop. Her mind was frantic at his words. "When do you plan on it?"

"Later tonight."

Her head nodded while filing the information away. "I want to say bye at least to her."

"I understand." Seth nodded. "I'll bring you to her."

"Good."

Seth looked at her body as his hand went to her breast cupping the fullness. "Can we get back to this?"

"I don't know. I'm still mad at you." She responded even while arching herself into him.

"Your body is saying otherwise." He pinched her nipple through the bra as she moaned out.

"Cheater."

"Call me the body manipulator but not a cheater. That hurts." Seth smiled picking her up and taking her back towards the bed. He looked down at her. "It's been so long since we've done this."

"Do you still remember where everything goes?"

"I remember how your body responds to everything I do, how you whimper my name, the way your mouth partially opens when I'm thrusting inside of you." Seth said it in between kissing her lips and neck. "The way your ass bounces." Seth smirked at her even harder.

"Okay, okay, you remember shit."

"I have an amazing memory now disrobe."

"Disrobe? You are not my—"The words ended as Seth silenced her again with the forceful kiss and biting her bottom lip. He pulled away smiling as she glared at him but started removing her clothes as he did the same. Once they were completely nude they just stared at each other. She knew how much she missed him, missed this but it was so simple to fall back into the swing of it as their hands trailed each other with him on top of her. Her hand gently scrolled over the scar she left him when she stabbed him as he looked into her eyes.

"It's healed."

"I know." She whispered.

He kissed her gentler this time as his hands trailed all over her body. "I love you." The words held so much meaning in them and took her breath away. "Don't be mad if we skip the pleasantries but it's been too long."

Seth found her core easy they didn't speak about the fact they weren't using protecting but Lanay was on birth control and has been for as long as you remember. The feeling of him breaking her had both of them moaning.

"Wow, you feel amazing." He groaned out once he hit home.

Lanay's hand instantly went to his back pulling him closer as he moved slowly inside of her. "Lanay…"

"Yes baby?"

"Don't leave me okay." Seth's words were vulnerable as she wrapped her legs around him trying to bring him in harder. "I couldn't deal if you left me."

Lanay didn't speak; the unknown between Hunter and Stephanie was lingering in the room but she could make him a promise in this moment. "Never."

The lovemaking between them was never this slow, this tender, her hands finally removed from his back as she moved towards his hair, stroking it softly. This was a first but it was needed between them. The love she had for Seth was deeper than anything she's ever felt for one person.

"Don't stop, don't stop." She moaned out as he thrusted deeper into her yet barely moving because neither of them wanting this to end.

"Your mouth is open." Seth smiled. "I feel you clenching against me, you're close."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah you know my body better than anyone are you happy now?"

"As long as you're with me I'm going to be happy."

Seth started thrusting deeper and going faster into her and she could tell he was close as well. Her hands went back to his back, eyes closing on instinct, gripping him, digging her nails into him.

"Sethhh… yes… please."

"I love you." He moaned out again.

"I love you too." She moaned out releasing herself around him as he did the same into her. She didn't ever want him to leave, needed him to stay with her.

Seth was still lazily thrusting into her as she opened her eyes to find him staring at her. "Marry me."
