The Beast's Queen

Chapter 33

"I'm not going Nicole!" Dean shouted as I chased him into the guest house.
"Why the fuck not?!" I exclaimed.
"She's gonna be there." Dean said in fake disgust.
"You're so fucking over dramatic. You're starting to sound like Rollins." I said annoyed.
"Hey." Dean said as his eyes turned to slits, "don't compare me to that piece of shit again."
"You worked with him for years!" I yelled.
"So?" He questioned as I just shook my head.
"You're going Ambrose." I said sternly.
"Not happening McMahon." He shot back.
"Yes it is."
"No it isn't."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes!" I yelled as I picked up a plate and threw it at him as he ducked.
"Hey!" He yelled. "You could've killed me!"
"It was a fucking plate! Not a bomb!"
"I don't care." He said sternly.
"We have to discuss our nephew as a family."
"What family?"
"Dean." I groaned.
"What? We don't even know if he's actually our nephew! He could be a kid that just looks like him for all we know!" Dean exclaimed. "So why should I have to meet with the rest of our stupid family to talk about something we don't even know is true yet?!"
"Well we should just in case it is true."
"I don't want too!"
"I don't either!" I shouted back. "But we have too!"
"Fine." He sighed as I looked at him with a smile.
"Really?"
"Yes but if I kill someone it's on you." He said with a glare.
"I think I can live with that."
"When are they gonna be here." He asked.
"Their plane lands in the next 15 minutes." I said.
"Great." He said as he rolled his eyes.
"Are you two done yet?" Seth shouted as he walked down the stairs.
"Oh I'm sorry did we bother you sleeping beauty?" I said sarcastically.
"Dude," Seth said as he turned to Dean, "your sisters a bitch."
"I'm right here!" I exclaimed.
"Oh I know." He said as he offered me a smile.
"I hope you choke." I muttered out as I walked into the main house.
"Heard that!" Seth shouted as I chuckled to myself.
"Everything okay?" Brock asked as I walked through the door.
"Yeah everything's fine. Seths just being Seth." I said as I rolled my eyes.
"So who's coming to this meeting?" He asked.
"Vince, Linda, Stephanie, Hunter, Shane, Marissa, Dean, you, and me." I said as Brock raised an eyebrow.
"Why me?" He asked.
"Well not only did you say you'd help me yesterday," I said with a smile, "but unfortunately half this house is mine and somehow someway Ms. Rodriguez could sue us and even though my lawyers are the best this country has to offer she could still weasel her way into a check that my ass can't cash. We just need to play our cards right so that's what this meeting is about."
"Ambrose is actually showing up to this thing?" Brock asked as he laughed.
"Yes why?"
"What did you threaten him with?" He asked with a smirk.
"I didn't threaten him at all!" I defended.
"You didn't?"
"No sir I did not." I said as he chuckled.
"I'll make sure to ask him myself."
"You don't believe me!" I exclaimed.
"Nicole." He said sternly and I sighed.
"Okay I see your point."
"What did you do to the poor guy?" He asked.
"She threw a plate at me!" Dean shouted from across the yard.
"Shut up!" I said back.
"And don't forget we have a meeting with the lawyer after everyone leaves."
"Stupid lawyers." Brock mumbled as I shook my head.
"I hate all of you." I said as Brock shot his head up.
"What?!"
"All you boys are so bitchy."
"No I'm not! That's Rollins!" He protested.
"Actually it's all of you." I said as I heard the doorbell ring.
"Dean!" I shouted. "They're here!"
"Great." He muttered as he walked through the back door.
"You ready for this?" Brock asked him.
"Nope."
"Me either."
"Welcome to hell." Dean said with a sigh.
"Mommy!" I exclaimed as she walked through the door with everyone else trailing behind.
"Hey baby." She said as she hugged me.
"Make this quick we leave in an hour." Vince said abruptly.
"Grandpa always a pleasure." I said as he chuckled.
"Well you did make us fly all the way here from LA. So what gives?"
"Yeah Nicole why are we here?" Shane asked.
"Everyone please take a seat in the dining room and I'll explain everything." I said as I leaded them out of the entry way.
"That's not creepy at all." Hunter mumbled.
"I feel like we're gonna die!" He shouted as everyone turned around and laughed.
"I wasn't kidding." He muttered.
"Dean." Stephanie said shocked as she walked into the room and saw Brock and him already seated.
I shot Dean a warning glare as he turned his head to face her.
"Hi." He said mutely.
"Okay." I said as I tried to take the attention off of him. "Everyone take a seat."
"I'm assuming management already told you all that there was a problem with a woman backstage last night?" I asked as everyone nodded.
"The security guard told us she wanted to talk to you and after she did Ambrose had him drag her away." Vince said as he watched Dean with a careful eye.
"Is there something you need Vince?" Dean challenged.
"Dean!" I exclaimed as he sighed.
"Bickering is not what we're here for." I said sternly. "So nobody starts anything."
"Sorry." Vince muttered as Dean nodded slightly.
"The woman backstage told me that Aubrey is the father of her son." I said as everyone's faces went blank.
"What?" Vince choked out.
"I checked into it." Dean said as my head whipped towards him.
"What?" I asked.
"Well she told us her name. So I might have stalked her on social media." He said innocently as everyone quietly chuckled.
"Did you see what her son looks like?" I asked.
"Yeah. His names Caleb. Caleb Hunter Rodriguez." Dean said as Hunter smiled.
"Caleb Hunter?" He asked brightly.
"Yeah." Dean said as he nodded.
"Does he look like Aubrey?" Stephanie asked.
"Spitting image."
"Dean asked for a DNA test proving he was related to us. When she came up to us she demanded money for child support." I said as Vince snorted.
"Of course she did." He said as he rolled his eyes.
"Nobody gives her a dime until we see proof he's one of us." Linda said as everyone agreed.
"What's the plan Nicki?" Marissa asked.
"Well if he's Aubrey's son then I'm petitioning for full custody." I said.
"Why?" Linda asked.
"Because that woman uses her son as if he was a walking bank." I said sternly as everyone was left quiet.
"He'd be better off with me and I know that deep down." I said as I smiled.
"Well." Vince said as he looked down at his watch. "I hate to cut this meeting short but I don't know if I can handle any more surprises like this and we're all needed back in LA for Raw so I'll talk to you later honey."
"Of course." I said as I hugged him.
"We can show ourselves out." Hunter said as he offered me a wink.
"Good luck kiddo. Keep us posted." Shane said.
"Anything you need you got it." Stephanie said with a smile.
Soon enough they had all left right through the door they had walked through.
"Well that went went." I said innocently.
"Yeah totally." Brock snorted. "They ran out of here like their asses were on fire."
"I know." I said defeated.
"We still have that stupid lawyer coming." Brock mumbled.
"Actually." I said as the door bell rang.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Brock exclaimed as Dean just chuckled.
"Save yourself." Brock said to him as Dean nodded quickly and walked out.
"Come on." I said as Brock and I walked to the door.
"Hey Ms. McMahon." Mr. Jacks said as he shook my hand.
"Mr. Lesnar." He said as he nodded at Brock.
"Let's get right into it shall we?" He asked as everyone walked into the dining room and took a seat.
"So Mr. Lesnar."
"Call me Brock." Brock said as Mr. Jacks nodded slightly.
"Brock. If you don't mind me asking. You two aren't involved in a personal relationship correct?"
"No we aren't." He said.
"How'd you meet?"
"We met the day she came back to the WWE."
"Did you guys hit it off instantly?" Mr. Jacks asked.
"I wouldn't say instantly no." Brock said honestly.
"But she's met your kids so obviously you're close?"
"Yeah we're close." Brock said and I could tell he was beginning to get irritated.
"And you two live together with your two sons?" Mr. Jacks questioned.
"Yes we do." I interrupted.
"Interesting." Mr. Jacks said as he looked at us.
"Well as long as the custody hearing proceeds with the DNA results proving he is in fact your nephew I think the best course of action is to present a united front. If you two were in a committed relationship you both would be miles ahead of the birth mother."
"So what are you saying?" Brock asked as we looked at him.
"What I'm saying is you both stand a better chance of winning full custody if you were married. Caleb's mother is a single mom barley scraping together enough money to get it through the week. You two if you were married would not only offer an environment with 2 loving parents but you would be presented as two successful people with a stable home and 2 kids already under your roof who are happy. The judge will take one look at the both of you and know for a fact that Caleb is better off with you." Mr. Jacks explained as he looked at us intently.
I turned my head and looked at Brock with a blank expression on my face.
"And you're sure this is the only way to guarantee full custody?" Brock asked.
"I'm positive Mr. Lesnar. I wouldn't mislead you. I've been doing this for 15 years. I know what the judges want to see. I know this isn't an easy ask of you both, but it's the only way." Mr. Jacks said with a small smile.
"Then I guess we're getting married." Brock said as he looked at me.
"You're sure about this?" I asked him.
"He's your nephew Nicole. You took in my boys and treat them like their your family. It's the least I can do for you." Brock said as he stood up and grabbed my hand.
"Is that all?" He asked.
"That's all." Mr. Jacks said with a nod as he stood up.
"And Jasper?" I said as he turned around, "if the DNA results come back saying were related to him expect a wedding invitation soon." I said with a wink.
"Will do Ms. McMahon." He said with a smile as he walked out.
"We're getting married?" I asked as I turned my head to look at Brock.
"We're getting married." He said back with a nod.
