Glen frowned as he heard the banging on his door,what idiot would bang on someone’s door like that?.Glen walked to the door and opened it,gasping as he took in the sight before him.Darla was standing there,bloodied and bruised,she was obviously on the verge of collapsing as she threw him a pleading look.Glen caught her in his arms as she passed out and carried her into his room.

***

Taker swore as he realized what he had done,he had beaten her badly and then kicked her out.Now he had no idea where she was or who she was with.

"Damn bitch better not to be fooling around" Taker muttered as he got off the bed.

Suddenly it hit him,he knew who she had gone to.He stormed out of his hotelroom and into the hallway. He would go over to the lobby,find out what room the bastard was staying in and take back what was rightfully his.A smirk appeared on his face as he walked on.

***

Glen sighed sadly as he looked over at the small girl laying on his bed.She had woken up from her unconscious state and she was now trying to sleep.She had pleaded with him not to take her to the hospital and eventually Glen had agreed.He was worried though,she had some major contusions and she probably had a concussion as well.

Glen scowled as he thought of Taker,he had gone too far this time and Glen would do everything in his power to keep her from going back to him.Taker outweighed her by atleast 200 pounds and he was a good 16 inches taller than her,whatever possessed Taker to hit Darla was beyond Glen but he wouldn’t let him do it again.

Glen turned his attention back to the redhead on the bed when she stirred and groaned in what seemed to be pain.Glen leaned forward in the chair he was sitting in.

"Are you alright?" Glen asked,worriedly.

"Not really but thank you for asking" Darla said softly.

Glen once again noticed how polite Darla always was,even when she was in pain.A long silence followed until a sudden knock on the door disturbed the peace.Darla litterally jumped and she slowly and painfully crawled into the corner of the bed.

"Who is that?" Darla asked,fear evident in her voice.

"Darla,it’s okay.No one’s going to hurt you,I’ll answer the door" Glen said.

Darla nodded but didn’t move.Glen opened the door and before he could register who it was,Taker blew right by him.Taker looked around the room and growled when he saw Darla curled up on the bed. Darla gasped when she saw him.

"You,you’re coming with me,get off the damn bed" Taker ordered while walking towards Darla.

Taker suddenly found himself being thrown back,away from the bed and into the door.He yelled in pain as his shoulder connected with the door.He looked up and saw a furious Glen standing over him.

"She’s not going anywhere with you" Glen said in a low voice.

Taker got up only to be knocked down again.Taker was stuck between the wall and Glen and the look on Glen’s face told him he wasn’t getting up.Darla was stunned,she had never seen Taker subdued before.

"What’s it to you?" Taker asked "Is she paying you for your protection?"

Taker smirked when he saw the furious look on Glen’s face.

"That’s it,isn’t it?.She’s giving you some like the little whore she is" Taker growled.

Glen grabbed Taker by his shirt and pulled him off the ground.Taker just laughed as Glen pushed him into the wall.

"You’re not beating her anymore,she’s staying right here" Glen said.

"Is she now?.Unfortunately,that’s not for you to say" Taker said,pushing Glen away from him "Little Darla is a grown woman,it’s her call"

Glen and Taker looked at Darla and she cowered against the wall.There was doubt and fear in her eyes and Taker decided to use it against her.

"Remember what I told you about knowing your enemies?" Taker asked.

Darla looked confused so Taker went on.

"You know me,you know what I want from you.How much do you know about him?" Taker asked,referring to Glen.

Darla looked at Glen and blinked,could it be?.

"Think about it" Taker continued "You’re a pretty girl,you’re trusting,naive…for all you know he…"

"Don’t listen to him Darla,it’s not like that" Glen cut in.

"Isn’t it?" Taker asked "What’s it going to be,Darla?"

Darla looked at the two big men back and forth and not for the first time in her life she felt completely and utterly desperate.
