Trouble in the King's Court

After Kristina went back down to the lobby, it was still just Aly and Henrik in the hotel room. She was terrified of what he may do to her, but she had to behave because he was paying for her grad school costs after all. She had no clue as to why he wanted her so bad, and just felt like he was being controlled by some kind of sick demon.

"Are you going to be good for me, now?" Henrik asked, standing in front of her.

Aly nodded, "Yes, I will. Just please do not hurt me."

Henrik removed the belt from her wrists and there were some strong marks on her. It was really sore. He took a mini bottle of body lotion from the bathroom and rubbed it on her arms to make the redness go away, "I'm sorry for doing this. I just need to have you."

"Then why not talk to me like...wait. What do you mean have me?" Aly pondered.

Henrik interlocked his fingers with hers, "I want to be yours. I love Therese, yes, but fifteen years and two daughters is enough. I need someone who can always travel with me. Someone who wants to embrace all the games I go to."

"Hank...I can't do that. You love your wife. I'm eleven years younger than you plus MLB Network promised me a full-time hosting gig once I finish grad school since Michelle was let go. You and your wife made so many beautiful memories. Don't throw them out," Aly said.

Henrik stood up, "I got to go. Me and some are the guys are going out in downtown Tampa tonight. Enjoy your vacation and see you when you come home." He soon left.

Aly finished unpacking when Kristina came back a few minutes later. She looked up and softly smiled at her friend, "Hey babe."

"Are you okay? What happened? You look flushed," Kristina asked, handing Aly her mango smoothie.

"Henrik just came by..." Aly mumbled.

Kristina looked up with wide eyes, "What? What happened!?"

"He bound my wrists for a few minutes then let me go. He told me he wants to be with me and leave his wife. He wants someone who understands his lifestyle and go to all his games. He wants me," Aly explained.

Kristina hugged her friend, "It'll be okay. But if it were me...I'd leave the nanny job. That is too toxic for you now with that confession. You have to tell his wife."

"She'll get so mad at me," Aly cried.

"Babe, you didn't do anything. He is being irrational, not you. You did nothing wrong. It'll be okay! I promise. I'll come with you back to the house before school starts up," Kristina added.

Aly sighed, "Alright. Thanks. Let's try to enjoy the rest of this vacation, okay? We always wanted to do Disney together and we are."

"Exactly. Let's relax and have some fun!" Kristina grinned, sipping her smoothie.

But would everything be fine? What would happen when one of Hank's teammates falls for Aly? The plot thickens...
