Once the investors had departed it left Paul and the Usos alone with all three police detectives and a slightly irritated Randy who just stood back giving both Becky and the blonde with her a dirty look.

"They can't stay in there forever." Randy grumbled stepping around the table.

The twins quickly stepping in front to block his path.

Becky huffs folding her arms across her chest as Paul excused himself to make a quick phone call leaving the group alone.

Randy glaring at the two.

"Move......Or I'll have you both arrested for interfering with a police investigation."

Jimmy raises an eyebrow at him and his brother not moving from where they were standing.

"Technically Uce....you barged into OUR meeting, no warrent or nothing and you're trying to tell US what to do. First of all you are lucky we kept Big Uce from introducing your face to the top of the table."

Jey reminded him watching Randy get angry.

Jimmy adding his two cents

"Second of all you're lucky that your partner as well as Sierra stepped between you both and at least calm him down before he did something he would regret."

Becky stood beside her partner fidgeting a bit as her partner looks over at her keeping her voice low.

"What exactly was that?"

The blonde asks snapping Becky out of her thoughts.

"What was what?"

"That whole talking to himself."

Becky laughs a bit nervously giving the Usos a discreet look.

"Stress...it's builds up after a while especially with Roman. He's such a perfectionist. The slightest thing can throw him off balance."

Her partner giving Becky a disbelieving look but shrugs it off as Paul comes back placing his phone in his pocket giving Randy a smug smirk that Becky and the twins knew very well.

"So I just got off the phone with your police chief and we'll Mr. Orton I regret to inform you that you no longer have jurisdiction on this particular investigation and that it has been left in the capable hands of your two lovely co workers."

He motions to Becky and the blonde beside her.

The twins grinning widely and the two women exchange looks watching Randy start to get pissed off. Pacing back and forth.

"THIS IS MY CASE!"

Randy growls now in the face of the burly assistant who just stands back looking even more smug than normal.

"Not anymore detective."

Paul answers back watching Randy step into the twins faces Jimmy and Jey with their hands clenched at their sides ready to react.

The room falling into a deadly silence. Randy in a stand off with the twins as Becky and her partner stood near the door behind him.

After a few minutes Randy backs away slowly not breaking his stare on the twins.

"Fine..... But just remember that I'm....not....done."

Randy turns and storms out slamming the door behind him leaving everyone in a silence so heavy it felt suffocating allowing the twins to slightly relax and unclench their fists.

Becky sighs relieved as Paul clears his throat adjusting his tie smirking triumphantly.

"Well now that takes care of that."

Becky looks over at Paul as he smirks dusting invisible lint from his suit.

"What exactly did you say or do?"

"Oh nothing just that I do believe Pensacola finest wouldn't want a nasty lawsuit filed against them for harassment. Nothing major."

Paul shrugs as Sierra and Roman enter the conference room.

After leaving Reigns Corporation Randy made it back to the precinct storming into the building in a fit of rage causing his fellow officers to look up seeing him enter and head straight for their police chief's office.

He bursts through the door of the office slamming his hands down on the desk causing the chief to look up.

"Can I help you detective?"

"What the fuck Shane? You pull me off the case?!"

Shane McMahon calmly sits back in his office chair looking up at a raging Randy folding his hands in front of him on top of his paper riddled desk leaning forward slightly.

"We have a process to follow Randy, we need proof before we can make any kind of arrests and right now there is nothing that points towards Reigns Corporation."

Shane gets to his feet stepping around the desk his badge clipped to his belt standing face to face with Randy who's hands ball into fists at his sides.

Shane sensing his rage but stays calm.

"I think Melissa and Becky are more than capable of handling this investigation on their own. They don't need a babysitter Randy."

Randy growls and slams his hands down on the desk and storms out of the office loudy slamming the door behind him bypassing Riddle who follows behind him like a little puppy dog following his owner.

The two of them stopping to see a blonde haired woman with dark makeup sitting at his desk, her feet up on his desk talking to a doll.

"Can I help you?" He snaps.

She looks up at him giggling.

"Well aren't you Mr Meanie Face. Seems like someone woke up on the crabby side of the bed this morning."

Randy rubs his face with his hands trying to hide his irritation. Matt standing beside him watching.

"Calm down bro, maybe she is just here to talk."

The woman giggles more, hopping to her feet and skipping over to Randy and Riddle. She pats Riddle on the cheek roughly but still giggling.

"You are so darn cute. Isn't he Lily?" She says looking at her doll in her arms.

She giggles more then turns to Randy.

"Actually I think you could use some help."

"Oh? And what kind of help would that be?"

She giggles sitting on the edge of the desk shuffling through the files coming across the file for Reigns Corporation picking it up and looking through it.

"Well he heard you were having a bit of a....ooooh I don't know. A stray problem and well....HE wants to help."

She sets the file down looking at the two innocently Randy exchanging looks with Riddle then turns his attention to the blonde and pink ponytailed woman.

"Okay first of all who is "HE" and what exactly can HE offer...."

The woman giggles clutching the strange looking doll as two figures appear behind Randy quietly standing there.

"Oh silly now why would I tell you who he is now when you're going to meet him sooner than you think."

With that said a bag swiftly goes over Randy's head. Riddle feels pain in the back of his head and the world goes black around him. He falls unconscious of the ground.

Randy struggled against his would be attackers as a rope wraps around him tightening.

The woman smirks darkly watching and holding the doll as the figures dragged a struggling Randy out. The woman still giggling and follows skipping out the door to a waiting black car. The figures shoving a struggling Randy into the backseat. The door slamming shut and pulling off the bag from Randy's head.

He then is staring into the eyes of a man with dread locks wearing a dark red long sleeved sweater and pants a eerie smile crossing his face as the car starts to move.

"Detective Randy Orton so nice to finally meet you. I do apologize for my acclimated they tend to get a little....trigger happy."

"Yeah yeah...now what do you want with me?"

The creepy man just smiles more.

"Well it seems that we have a common enemy in The Reigns Corporation. You see my partner wants the territory however there is a minor obstacle in the way."

Randy raises an eyebrow watching the man lean back in his seat the blonde next to him playing with the doll while humming a tune.

"Let me guess Roman and his crew."

The man nods grinning to the point it was starting to give Randy the chills but as soon as the smile appeared it suddenly disappears into a dark glare which almost sent a now nervous Randy reeling.

The man stares darkly at Randy the smiles cheerily which unnerves Randy even more.

"I know all about you Randell Keith Orton...."

"I highly doubt that."

Randy finally challenges not taking his eyes off the woman sitting beside the man.

"Oh I know more about you than you think. I know there's a darkness within you. A dark viper so to speak just waiting to he set free. And I can help you accomplish this and much more."

Randy sits back still not taking his eyes off the man only to feel a sudden sharp pain in his head.

Randy yells in pain grabbing his head doubled over breathing hard panting as the man sits back and watches and grinning.

"Don't fight it Randy. Embrace your inner viper."

Randy panting still doubled over and holding his head as sweat was starting to form on his face now obvious to his surroundings and where he was.

"It's time to accept who you truly are and let him in."

Randy hands fall from his head slowly as he lifts his head looking the man in the eyes.

Then his eyes flash to a deadly yellow snake like for a moment then shift back to normal.

Randy shaking his head as if he was coming out of a trance.

Becky and Melissa took deep breathes and relaxing a bit more once Randy had left. The tension had finally lifted as they finished their conversation.

Roman sitting in his chair leaning back a bit hiding his annoyance from the interruption earlier while shooting Sierra a glare for their impromptu meeting and her hitting his chest.

Sierra stood beside her brother completely ignoring the glare but not taking her eyes off of Becky's partner.

Ryder, her wolf letting out a hyper yip in her head.

"Ryder is acting like an over excited pup and Leati needs to calm down."

Roman deadpans in Sierra head giving her a discreet side eye. Sierra ignoring him completely as Roman finally gets to his feet along with the twins.

"As always Becky it's good to see you."

Roman compliments as Sierra rolls her eyes.

Becky just nods while nudging her partner to get her attention.

Leati, Roman's wolf whines are heard in Roman's ears and head.

"Well uhm...it was a pleasure to meet you both and if you have any questions feel free to let me or Becky know."

Roman just nods as the two turn to leave.

Roman watches the blonde who stops feeling like she's being watched giving Roman a quick glance over her shoulder walking out slightly ahead of Becky.

Becky looks back at Sierra who holds up her phone to say 'I'll text you later.'

Becky just nods heading out the door leaving the group in a eerie silence.

Sierra looking over to see a predatory like smirk cross Roman's lips. Leati yipping in his ears.

Sierra elbows Roman snapping him out of his daze the smirk quickly disappearing.

"What was that?"

She demanded turning to Roman his expression going back to serious.

"What was what?"

"Don't play stupid Roman. What was with the dark predatory smirk?"

"What smirk?"

Sierra folds her arms across her chest raising a perfectly arched eyebrow.

"I don't want, need or have a mate." Sierra repeated Roman's exact words still with her arms crossed. The twins watching and listening closely.

"I dont.."

Roman answers back sharply.

Jimmy and jey exchanging looks then spoke up.

"Then explain the smirk."

"There was no smirk."

"Yeah okay Roman seriously who are you trying to convince us or yourself? Besides I thought you didn't want a mate."

Roman shoots Sierra a glare as Paul clears his throat to get their attention.

"It's been a long day and I already rescheduled the rest of the day so why not just head back home to relax?"

Paul suggested as the group gathers up their belongings while Paul calls and tells the driver to meet them in the lobby.

Sierra and the twins heading for the door Roman being the last.

"I'm thinking Naomi Sasha and I will grab a few drinks at The Boneyard tonight. It is the grand opening and Mark and Ember both will be there along with his pittie Onyx and Diesel."

Roman just huffs and rolls his eyes as the driver walks up to greet everyone the security guards making their rounds as everyone begins to leave for the day.

"You need a mate." Sierra tells Roman who gives her a dark glare not saying a word glancing down at his phone then back up as they walk out to a waiting blacked out Lexus GX.

The driver opening the door allowing everyone to climb in and get settled while Paul gets into the front passenger seat. The clicks of seat belts heard.

Roman turning his attention to the dark mirror tinted windows. Leati whining and yipping in Roman's ears causing him to sigh and lay his head back against the head rest and close his eyes for a few.

"I'm probably going to go for a run and try to calm the full grown puppy in my head down."

Sierra shrugs going quiet letting out a sigh.

The SUV pulling up to the opening gates of the house driving around and coming to a stop. The driver parking and climbs out making his way around to open the door allowing g the group to climb out getting greeted by Naomi and Sasha.

"About time."

Sasha grins seeing Roman brush past them heading into the house without a word.

Naomi and Sasha raising an eyebrow as Jimmy greets Naomi with a kiss to the top of her head while Jey does the same with Sasha.

Sierra just rolls her eyes.

"You all suck." She teases giggling.

"Hey its not our fault you're with a CIA/DEA agent."

Naomi teases back with a grin.

"Yeah yeah...after today I really need a drink."

"What happened? "

"You want the full story or cliff notes?"

Naomi and Sasha roll their eyes as Jimmy huffs and explains.

"Long story short. We are under the microscope for the unexplained deaths going on around town and five'O decided to pay us an unexpected visit at the office."

Sasha and Naomi's eyes go wide as Jey continues.

"Yeah, this cop shows up demanding answers and what not.."

"Basically we had to keep Roman from losing his shit and going to jail nevermind the fact that Leati found his mate in Becky's partner."

Naomi shrugs. "That explains the mood...."

"Well that and I've been up his ass like a cheap uncomfortable thong about finding a mate."

The girls giggle and the twins both groan and facepalm.

"Anyways ladies tonight's the grand opening of the Boneyard and we all know Mark and Ember would be mad if we didn't show up."

The girls all nod as they head into the house and up the stairs to Sierras room to change bypassing Roman's office.

Sierra stops and pokes her head in seeing Roman pacing back and forth still in his work slacks but now shirtless hair hanging over his shoulders.

"It's getting to you and you know Leati and I are right about her."

Sierra says leaning against the doorframe.

Roman doesn't hear her but is still pacing back and forth arguing with Leati in his head.

Sierra rolls her eyes grabbing a throw pillow off the couch and throws it, hitting Roman, getting his attention only to have Roman catch it in midair turning his attention to his sister who's leaning against the door.

"E mafai ona e tu'uina atu Ryder gobalready ... e leai se mea."

(Can you let it go already Ryder...it was nothing.)

"Oi, o le mea leaga e pei o le ataata e leai se mea... ioe lelei Roman. ou te le valea e pei o ou foliga."

(Oh, so the predatory like smirk was nothing...yeah okay Roman. I'm not as stupid as I look....)

Roman closes his eyes and takes a deep breath brushing past Sierra and making his way to his room.

Sierra following in his footsteps as he stops at the door.

"You know what forget it...."

Sierra shakes her head and walks away to get ready to head out with Sasha and Naomi leaving Roman to his thoughts.
