Forced

Marriage

By

E.L Beth

Chapter 1

Kendall was furious. No way in hell was this happening. "Kendall honey
your twenty-five years old, it's time you settled down anyway." Was her
mother serious?

"Cathy I will not marry him, father would turn in his grave, he hated him,
why would you think this would be the solution to end the feud?" Her
mother hated it when she called her by her name.

"It's the only way... We will lose everything your father worked for if you
don't marry him, everything Kendall, the entire thing will be handed over
to the Wyatt’s, is that what you want?"

Her mother always could play the guilty card, Kendall hated her for it.

"What if he doesn't agree?"

"He will agree otherwise everything comes to us, your godfather, god rest
his soul was a strange man, he was specific in his will, both Kendall and
Blake will marry and have a child putting everything in the child's name
as to cease the feud. He was Blake's godfather too, he cared deeply for
our family as well as there's. You poor father thought it best to do
business with him, not knowing he was in business with them. Anyway
Michael as you know owned the majority of the lands. In his will he was
very precise to state whichever family refuses this truce the other family
receives his share. So Kendall can you understand why this is so
important?"

No she didn't understand! She was an only child, and all she knew about
this Blake was that he had a brother and a sister. How the hell could she
marry somebody she'd never met and more importantly have a child with
this person? Oh man if her father were alive he'd never allow Cathy to do
this to her!

"What about lawyers? Is there a loophole we can use to get out of it?"

"Do you think Michael was a stupid man? He was very precise Kendall,
he knew he was dying, he thought of everything! Now please stop being
difficult we don't have time, wedding will be in two days so please let's go
get you a dress." At this point Kendall hated her mother so much, her no
good, Botox face, money hungry mother! Oh how she missed her father.

***

Blake was pissed, Michael you fucker how could you do this? "I'm paying
you a fucking large amount of money to get me out of this Max, and you
come up with fuck all!"

"Mr Wyatt please understand the first thing that Michael Lucius stated
was there would be no intervening in his will. If I dig further you can risk
losing it all. I'm sorry this is one I can't win for you." Fucking lawyers!
"Get out!" Blake was losing his cool. He would be married in two days to
a fucking pompous princess who he'd never set eyes on! What's worse
he would have to impregnate her! Poor Jade, how could she handle this?
They were set to wed in a year. And what's worse was there would be no
divorce, whoever filed for divorce the other party gets his share!
Motherfucker!

A knock on the door woke him from his thoughts. "Yes?" He wasn't in the
mood for anymore shit, he needed to sort himself out.

Jade made her way in looking like the most beautiful woman in the world.
Her light brown hair falling loosely around her face. Her blue eyes were
blotched, she had been crying. "Come her honey," he swirled his chair
around so she could sit in his lap. As soon as she was in his arms she
broke down in sobs. "Hey don't cry baby. We'll work it out, I swear I'll
figure it out. I’ll figure something out."

"Blake you will be married in two days, what are you going to figure out?"

"Married or not you stay with me, I'll never let you go. She will have to
accept it baby. We will always be together, it's just a formality. It's you I
love, nobody can ever compare to that." Jade nodded her head. He lifted
her chin up and kissed her gently on her lips. Boy this was going to get
messy.

***

Already the day of the wedding was upon them, Kendall stared at her
reflection in the mirror, oh fuck she was a bride! Her dark brown hair in a
high neat full bun atop her head. She had a very expensive pearl tiara
that looked more like a hair peace rather than a tiara, it had a vintage
look that Kendall loved. She wore simple drop pearl earrings and a
simple pearl necklace. The bodice of her dress was a very intricate
design of a very expensive lace. It squeezed her already thin waist, laced
at the back, the bottom of her dress was princess like gown that was full
and Crystal organza that was delicately cut to perfection, layers and
layers or material.

Looked like a fairy tale dress, meant for a fairy tale wedding, not this shot
gun wedding.

Admittedly Kendall knew she looked amazing, her big brown eyes were
all dolled up with dark smoky makeup, almost charcoal look. She was
often asked if she was a model, and looking at herself now she
understood why.

"Oh my darling you look amazing," her mother said forcing her tears out.

"Cathy please stop with your crap! I'm here aren't I?"

"Please call me mother. People will think something's wrong with

us." Like no shit Sherlock! They were anything but in a loving
relationship.

"Oh heaven forbid we show our true colours! Do you even car about what
will happen to me? My god I don't even know him!" Kendall felt herself
starting to hyperventilate.

"Calm down, he will look after you, they are very well off..."

"Always about the money with you mother!"

"I'll pretend I didn't hear that! It's time let's go."

"Wait who's will be walking me down the aisle?"

"Oh dear we didn't think of that..."

"Seriously?" Since this whole ordeal, this was the moment Kendall felt
like crying, if only her father were here.
"Don't work yourself up, Uncle Brett will walk you down." Cathy hurried off
to find her uncle. This day just went from bad to worse.

***

Blake was waiting impatiently at the altar. He was not happy at all, he
could see Jade crying and her mother trying to comfort her. She was a
mess. Now for his ever late bride to show her face so this fucking ordeal
would end. What was worse was another one of Michael's condition
being they were to honeymoon in a fucking cabin in an undisclosed
location, Michael had it arranged to the end. The location would be given
to him when they were on the way.... Alone!

That's all he fucking needed. He would however be able to explain the

rules of the game to her, informing her that Jade would move in with them
and share his bedroom. She might as well get used to it from the
beginning.

The music began and everybody stood, he didn't want to see her, he
wanted to close his eyes and pretend this was not real. He turned and
watched his bride walk down with all the grace of a fucking princess. He
was spot on, she was an overly spoilt brat who always got what she
wanted. His brother was beside him as best man, he looked at Blake
sympathetically and Blake wanted to punch him.

Uncle Brett handed her over to her husband to be, she hadn't even
wanted to look up at him. She stood rigid when he took the veil off her
face and pulled it back. Kendall decided she better look at the man she
was marrying. Looking up she actually drew in a breath. He was very
attractive, not her type but still very good looking. He had dark hair, even
darker eyes, straight nose, full lips and a very neat goatee. He wasn't a
short man, and from what Kendall could make out his body was in great
shape.

Blake looked at his bride and was taken aback, she was a stunner, her
eyes were exotic, like some sort of Arabian princess. She dressed her
eyes with too much makeup but it only added to their beauty. Her lips
were luscious, painted in red. He shook his head to discard any attraction
to this bombshell, she was seductively sexy but his type was Jade. He
liked her simple look, she was always particular about her appearance,
not needing too much make up to add to her beauty, she was perfect.

The ceremony took forever and when they repeated their vows Kendall
choked back her tears. She was marrying a complete stranger. Her father
hated this man till his dying day and here she was marrying him. I'm so
sorry dad, she cried to herself.

"You may kiss the bride." Kendall swallowed, she didn't want to do this, it
was completely awkward, Blake bent his head and brushed his lips over
hers in a cold and unfeeling kiss. Cheers and applause from the guests
and it was finally over. Blake linked his arms with hers as they made their
way out as husband and wife. Photos and champagne and it was time to
leave. The reception was another daunting ordeal she needed to get
through. Blake opened the limousine door and helped her in before
following her inside. Once the doors were closed and the driver slowly
took off, Kendall was suddenly very nervous.

Blake looked at his bride and hated the situation. Here she was, the
daughter of the man who had an affair with his mother causing her to
leave the family, before discarding her like she was nothing. Damn right
she was nothing, she came crawling back to his father who never let her
forget her betrayal and her disloyalty. Here his bride sat looking like he
was beneath her. She was definitely beautiful, but so was his mother, you
can't trust beauty like that, he learnt that the hard way.

Kendall kept her head held high, she wouldn't stoop to talking to him first.
Her father must be disgraced with her for this. But she couldn't allow
them to take her father’s sweat and blood. Her mother was right, she
needed to sacrifice for the greater good, didn't mean she had to play nice
with her husband, best he learn where he stands with her, and that was
beneath her. She was way out of his league and all the money in the
world wouldn't change that.
"How old are you?" His voice jolted her from her thoughts.

"I'm twenty five." She wasn't going to ask him the same, she didn't care.

"How many guys have you been with?" She looked up at him with
disbelief.

"That's none of your god damn business," she was shocked by his
boldness, like really shocked. The fuck was he on about? How dare he
ask her something so personal?

"Actually it is, answer the question."

"I did answer it, none of your god damn business." Blake didn't like being
spoken to like this. He wanted to smack her mouth. He was so used to
having people hide in fear from him. He was really caught off guard when
this kid spoke to him like that. Yeah that would not stick, this bitch was
going to learn to respect her husband.

She dismissed him from her thoughts and turned to looked out the
window, before she could even register what was happening her had her
flat on her back with his hands roaming her lacy underwear. He looked
murderous

"I can find out myself, you can tell a lot about these things by inserting
your fingers in..."

"None! I haven't been with anybody!" She pushed him off her and
readjusted herself quickly. She stared at him in utter shock and disbelief.

"I don't know if I believe you, maybe I should check just to make sure."
Her eyes went wild. He could tell she wasn't expecting his behaviour.

"I'll scream, I swear to god if you touch me again I'll scratch your eyes
out!" He laughed, he was actually turned on, she fucking got his dick
hard. That was a first, only Jade had been to ignite any fire within him.
"Really you'll scream and what if I did this, he placed a hand over her
mouth silencing her. Kendall's arms were wildly trying to hit him. He
grabbed them easily and held them in an unrelenting grip. "What else
have you got kitten? Don't try and best me bride, you'll never come out
the victor." The limo pulled over and he let her go, he actually fixed her
dress and placed her hands gently onto her lap.

The chauffeur opened the door, Blake exited the car, before offering her
his arm to help her out. He stared her down daring her to refuse his help.

Chapter 2

Walking in as husband and wife, everybody at the reception were on their

feet applauding as they entered the hall. Kendall was not taken by the
decor, candles and flowers of burnt orange that decorated the tables and
fairy lights which illuminated the tables.

Kendall just wanted this night to end, she hated the pretence, although
everybody was aware of the terms of this marriage she still had to play
the part of the bride. Her life was officially over.

Still shaken by Blake's behaviour in the limo, Kendall wanted that sleaze
away from her. How dare he treat her like that? He would be a fool to
think he was going to touch her intimately. Her bloodline meant that she
was way above him. His entire family sickened Kendall, his mother was a
whore, his father a thug and he seemed to take from both of them. Never
had Kendall detested anybody so much in her life.

Once seated the festivities began, dancing, drinking, eating. Nobody

cared that this was a forced marriage, Blake wanted it over. He nursed
his scotch as he contemplated what to do next. Fucking emcee
announced the bride and groom dance, great that's all he wanted. He
stood, playing the gentleman and escorted her to the dance floor. The
lights dimmed and they started their dance. Kendall kept her distance in
the dance and Blake felt ridiculous, he pulled her in so their bodies
touched and she glared at him. "Smile it's your wedding day," he
whispered deliberately mocking her.

Kendall kept her back straight, hating the way he thought to taunt her.
The song ended and she quickly moved away from. Hurrying back to the
table. "Kendall, can you act a little more excited?"

"Cathy I swear to god, I'll run away! You need to leave me alone."

"He's dancing with another woman you fool, look!" Kendall turned and
noticed Blake and a beautiful woman dance, they looked in love. The girl
was lost in his eyes and she seemed sad. Good, he can dance with
anybody his heart desired.

"May I have this dance?" Kendall turned and noticed a very good looking
man. "My name is Logan Whitford and I would love a dance." Kendall
smiled at Mr blond hair and blue eyes. She took his hand as they made
their way to the dance floor. He held her like they were lovers, she quite
enjoyed his arms being around her.

"Kendall, my father knew your father very well, when we found out about
this farce I was directed to see if you were okay. Your mother wasn't very
happy, but you’re our main priority." Kendall was shocked to say the
least.

"I don't understand?"

"Listen I don't have enough time to answer your questions now, I'll give
you my number and when you are free to talk give me a buzz. If you
need anything at all you let me know, it's the least we can do, we owed
your father a lot."

Blake watched as his bride danced, she seemed very intrigued with
everything her partner had to say. This guy looked like he genuinely
cared for her. When the music ended he grabbed Kendall and kissed her
on her cheek, a kiss that lingered a little too long Blake thought. "Blake,
something wrong?" Jades sweet voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Just sad that I won't be seeing you for a while, will you be okay?"

"I'll have to be okay."

***

Finally the party was over, and it was time to leave, Kendall was a little
apprehensive about leaving with him. She went to the bridal room and
changed out of her dress, thanking god she no longer needed to parade
looking like an oversized balloon. She put on a very short cream dress
that reached mid thighs, the dress was completely backless, and
scooped very low showing cleavage, she added heals, took off her tiara
and let her hair down, she messed her hair a little and studied her
reflection. She looked like a porn star, and that's the exact look she was
after. She could get any man she wanted, best her new husband learn
that!

Blake waited impatiently for over an hour for his bride to return. He was
losing his patience and didn't want everybody to notice. He thanked the
guest for their generosity and made his way to find his wife. He walked
into the bridal room without knocking and stood dumb struck. She had
her back to him looking almost naked and was talking on her phone,
laughing and carrying on. She didn't even acknowledge his presence,
which infuriated him! He grabbed her arm and turned her around roughly.
Her big brown eyes opened wide as if insulted by his touch.

"Jarred honey I'm going to have to call you back...." Blake took the phone
out of her hand and smashed it against the wall causing it shatter! "Who
the hell do you think you are?" Hey eyes ablaze.

"I'm your goddamn husband who has better things to do then wait for
you!" If looks could kill then Kendall would surely be dead. Blake looked
furious and his anger was aimed at her.
"Who asked you to wait, I sure didn’t." This was not how Kendall was
expecting the evening to turn out. She assumed he would be on his way
so she could be on hers.

"Let’s go Kendall, change your clothes and lets go" What was that?
Change her clothes... Oh no he didn’t.

"I am changed. And for your information I'll not be going with you
anywhere." Blake was honestly losing his patience, he wanted to get the
fuck out of there and she was delaying his departure.

"Kendall I don’t have time for this. In case you haven’t been informed, we
need to follow a schedule so go put something decent on and lets go."

"This is decent, and I haven't packed a thing for our trip. So unfortunately
we need to leave when I am better organised."

"Your mother has packed your belongings they are in the car that is
outside waiting for us to leave. You have two minutes to change, this is
your last chance."

"You are deluded if you think for a second you can tell me what to do or
how to dress. Please save yourself the embarrassment and go back to
whatever hole you came from" That’s it Blake was pissed, nobody ever
dared to question Blake Wyatt and never has anybody dared to insult
him. Blake was through with playing cool with this spoilt princess, heir to
her father’s fortune or not she needed to be put in her place.

Taking off his jacket and forcing her to wear it, he lifted her up and threw
her over his shoulder not caring if they put on a show for the ever curious
audience.

"Put me down, I swear you will regret it!" Kendall started pounding on his
back, she felt her dress ride up and was aware that her less than nothing
thong would soon come into view. To her horror and surprise Blake
landed his palm hard across her ass slapping her with force. She yelled
out, it hurt her and she was so shocked by his audacity that she stilled.

"Anymore from you and so help me god I will smack your arse for
everybody to witness, so let’s leave with a shred of dignity, unless of
course you’re into this sort of thing!"

"Okay! Okay I’ll do what you want just put me down, please..." Kendall
could not afford to be in a scandal. She would rather die than be
humiliated by the Wyatt family at her wedding no less.

"Understand this, if you continue to disobey me I will not hesitate to

publicly humiliate you. Are we clear?"

"Yes now put me down." He let her go harshly, she staggered backward
and almost fell. Giving him a look of pure hatred.

"Wrap my jacket around you, you look like a fucking whore." Kendall
stared at Blake speechless. He just insulted her, not to mention he
slapped her arse. This was so not acceptable, how on earth would she
survive this brute. Kendall's life consisted of people jumping at her every
demand, at pleasing her at all cost. She had never in all her years been
spoken to or treated as this. She thought better than to say anything, it
was neither the time nor the place for such a conversation. He will
eventually do things her way, everybody always did.

Blake grabbed her arm and pulled her behind him. He was always a
reasonable man, always calm and fair. He loathed the Hastings for as
long as he could remember. He especially hated Kendall's father
Augustus. Which in turn made him hate his only daughter the spoilt, over
indulged little brat. She was her father’s reflection. She acted like him,
always looking down at everybody else, never giving in to demands and
always ruthless in order to get their way. He had studied her father, Blake
was actually intrigued by Augustus Hasting, everybody called him the
king, because of his hard all or nothing nature, and sure enough his
daughter was named the princess.

Deep down Blake thought to give her the benefit of the doubt, maybe she
wasn't what he imagined her to be, that maybe, just maybe the rumours
were wrong, boy was he sadly mistaken, she was more than the rumours
he'd heard about, she was everything he feared and more. Blake didn't
want to be harsh with her, but it seems it’s the only way to tame this
insolent being. By god he was going to have a hard time trying to keep
his cool demeanour that he was so famous for.

Chapter 3

"What’s this car?" Kendall was appalled to see a four wheel drive, "I will
not get in that."

"Kendall get in the goddamn car before I throw you in." He was serious?
Did he honestly expect her to drive around in that monstrosity? She was
beside herself.

"Where is the limo?" How could her Neanderthal of a husband expect her
travel in that?

"Kendall, for heaven’s sake, it’s a brand new Prado, get in the car, top of
the range... See?" He opened the door for her to inspect, she eyed it out
clearly not happy.

"No." For the third time today this little hothead was making him lose his
cool. He lifted her ass and all but threw her in. He did warn her. He
slammed the door hard and went to say his goodbyes to Jade. Poor Jade
looking so broken hearted. He grabbed her around her waist and kissed
her deeply. Not caring if the entire world watched. He loved her and
everybody would just have to accept that fact. He could be doomed to be
married to this princess but in no way would that mean that he would live
without Jade. Not going to happen, even if he lost everything. His plan
was to make his bride as miserable as he could and maybe she would
file for divorce granting him everything.
Kendall had witnessed the kiss and felt humiliated, he was deliberately
playing with her. She knew his type. He wanted her to know that he made
the rules and that she would abide by them. Yeah right, he would have to
wait for hell to freeze over first. It took Kendall everything she had not to
go down and kiss some random guy just to give him a taste of his own
medicine.

When he entered the car and took off not even waving to anybody
Kendall shrugged his jacket off. He looked pissed again, poor baby was
going to cry for miss sweetheart. That almost made Kendall laugh...
Almost. He looked a little too pissed to get started with him now.

"So where are we off to?"

"No idea"

"Sounds nice." He was an idiot. "Is this no idea far from here?"

"I need to head down this way, in about an hour I will receive the address
of the location. It was stated that we are to follow exact orders to keep
this truce going. Michael was very specific in his demands"

"What are his other demands, I really thought the marriage thing was it...
Please don't tell me there is more?'' Blake looked over at her squinting
his eyes.

"Your mother didn't feel the need to enlighten you with the details?"

"Actually no, she might have thought I wouldn't have gone through with it.
She would have been correct."

"Demands so far are we are to be wed, we are to consummate the

marriage and sire a child. We are to go to this specific location where we
will sleep in the same bed for two weeks. No interference with any
members of either family and no friends. When the honeymoon is over
we will return to my house where you will live in order to keep the truce
going."
Kendall was having a very hard time taking this in. Her mother was an
absolute lying witch. She never mentioned any of the above, except of
course the wedding and the baby. Kendall wanted to pull out and end this
whole farce. No way would she be able to handle all of these demands.
What was Michael playing at? Why did he want this to happen?

"And you’re willing to play by the rules? Wow you must be desperate to
agree to this, and what about your poor girlfriend? Kind of feel sorry for
her."

"That’s none of your business Kendall, you'd do well to remember that."

"Oh I'm sorry did I strike a nerve? She must love you a lot to allow you to
marry another. Does she know the terms of this deal? Have you
discussed in detail how it is going to be? She really must be a little slow
to accept this. Slow or desperate... Who knows right?"

Kendall noticed the way his jaw was clenched. This was payback bitch,
she would teach him to ever ill-treat her again. He pulled the car over to
the side of the road and put it in park. He was looking straight ahead as if
trying to calm himself down. Kendall felt a moment of fear, just a moment
then she recalled the way he had manhandled her earlier on and she was
once again ready to rub salt in the wound.

Blake counted to twenty, hoping he could regain some control, he was so

close to losing his shit and belting her. She was fucking exhausting, he
could handle a lot of things, but he didn't take to kindly to Jade being
insulted. Jade was his true love and his bride here needed to learn some
fucking respect. Blake turned and looked at the brunette bombshell sitting
in the passenger’s seat, with not a care in the world.

"Listen carefully Kendall, I'm doing my best to remain calm with you. Jade
is not your concern, please refrain from talking about her or insulting her.
That is one thing I will not tolerate. I don't want to cause anymore
animosity between us, we should try and be civil with each other at least
that will make this entire ordeal a little easier on the both of us."
"Civil? You’re kidding right? Do I need to remind you that you had your
hands up my fucking dress earlier today feeling me up? Or how you
threw my phone, or how you smacked my ass? Civil? How civil were you
when you kissed your precious Jade? Fuck you! I will never be civil with
you."

Opting to not reply, Blake started the car and continued on their journey.
This was not going to be an easy thing to control, he was a control freak
and this situation was fast spiralling out of control.

After what seemed like forever on the road, Kendall wanted a break.
They hadn't said a word since their last battle of the words. "I need to use
the toilet. Find a cafe or something and pull over."

"Ask me nicely, I don't take orders." Blake was going to fight fire with fire.

"Please pull over."

"Good girl... Maybe there is hope for you yet." He smiled when he saw
her eyes widen at his comment.

"Whatever. You have serious issues." She was too tired to deal with his
shit. Hating traveling in this sorry excuse for a car and wanting to stretch
herself she refused to give him any more of her time.

Finally pulling over at a disgusting diner, Kendall almost barfed. "This is

the best you could come up with?"

"Sorry princess, beggars can't be choosers. It’s here or the woods,

choice is yours." Kendall huffed and exited the car. She hated the dirt on
the ground, her shoes were very expensive and she didn't want to ruin
them. She was walking on her toes to avoid marring her heels.

"What is it now?" Blake watched her walk like she was stepping on
burning coal.
"The ground is dirty."

"No shit Sherlock, it’s called the earth, now hurry up we don't have all
night"

"My shoes will be ruined." He looked at her like she was an alien, for
fucks sake she was high maintenance. He moved to her and picked her
up for the second time today throwing her over his shoulder. In only five
strides he was at the entrance to the diner. He put her down and didn't
even look at her. Blake entered the diner and regretted the stop as soon
as he walked in. Bikers all shapes and sizes were having a drink or
something to eat, and in walks his little bride looking like a fucking porn
star. Kendall didn't even look anybody's way. She walked straight in and
searched for the ladies room. Blake could hear the men whistle and
comment.

"Keep it in your pants boys." Kendall said to his absolute horror. She
entered the ladies room and Blake was trying to figure out how to take all
these fuckers on. He felt behind his back and sighed, relieved that his
pistol was tucked in the back of his pants. He purchased two sodas and
waited patiently for Kendall to return.

"How much for the beauty." A big bold biker asked him.

"She's not for sale." Blake didn't look at him when he replied.

"Hundred dollars for an hour."

"You know what, ask her yourself." Blake was aware how fragile this
situation was, yet it was a great way to teach her a lesson in appropriate
attire. He was more than ready for trouble, let's see how Miss Princess
here would handle herself.

With all the grace of a model she walked out of the ladies room. Her held
high as she walked passed the men who were clearly enjoying the view.
"Hey sweet cheeks how much for an hour? Or even ten minutes I don't
think it will take me long, if you know what I mean?"

"Honey you couldn't afford me," she walked up to Blake and seemed
ready to leave. "When you’re ready" She was still ordering him like he
was nothing. And acting like the men didn't bother her. Blake sensed
trouble, the big bold biker dude came toward them, as did four other big
ugly boys. Blake smiled, it was go time, he grabbed Kendall and handed
her the keys

"Go! Lock yourself in the car, if you need to drive then you drive fast"
Kendall wasn't sure why he was telling her this and whispering it in her
ear. She looked back and was quick to understand. Not needing to be
told twice Kendall followed his orders. She ran to the car and started the
ignition, that’s all she knew how to do... Fuck it shouldn't be too hard to
drive. She heard gunshots go off and froze. Oh boy she was in shit. She
assumed D was for drive and moved the stick to D, looking for the brakes
she worked that out too. When she saw Blake run out she tried to drive to
him, every time she accelerated she would quickly break, she continued
this motion until he caught up with her.

Blake tried to get in the passenger seat, but the door was locked. He
banged on the window for her to unlock the door. She searched
frantically to find an unlock button. Blake kept looking back they were
coming for blood and his bride couldn't find how to unlock a fucking door.
He moved indicated where the button was and to his relief the door
unlocked. "Drive!" He couldn't understand her hesitation. “Kendall drive
the fucking car they are coming!"

"I don't know how to!" Of course the princess didn't know how to drive a
fucking car. Moving his seat back as far as it could go he ordered her to
sit in his lap so he could move to the driver’s seat. It was awkward to say
the least, her ass was in his face at one point and if this situation weren’t
so dangerous he would have found it hilarious. The bikers were out and
they were fucking angry. Blake took off yelling at Kendall to buckle up. He
was speeding, but they were not far behind, having bikes made it easier
for them to catch up. He sped and kept changing lanes to confuse them.
He counted five all up. They reached Kendall's window and banged on
the glass, Kendall let out a scream. Blake braked suddenly and the car
halted in its place. The bikers kept going for a while before realizing he
had stopped.

This gave Blake enough time to get the car ready and take off again, this
entire situation was on dangerous ground, the road was winding and he
didn't want to kill anybody, but their lives were literally in danger and he
wouldn't risk it. They turned back and sped toward him, as they came
forward, he flew straight at them, by the time they almost collided the
bikers flew off their bikes hitting the ground hard as their bikes continued
to drive on their own until they crashed form the force of the speed. Blake
continued at a fast pace to get as much distance as he could. After an
hour he was sure they were safe and he slowed down to the designated
speed limit.

Chapter 4

Kendall was sure to keep her mouth shut. That had been too real, her
body finally stopped shaking, but she was far from over the whole
incident. Blake looked really pissed. He received the phone call directing
him to their location. She noticed how he refused to acknowledge her and
just kept driving. She thought it better that nothing was said. It was dark
out and Kendall wondered if they were ever going to reach their
destination. She was holding her tongue because she really did want to
complain. To her utter relief he seemed to have found the place. He
drove down a long driveway that went on forever.

Kendall was trying to focus where they were headed. She smelt the sea,
but could not see further then where the headlights glowed. When Blake
turned on the high beams Kendall almost choked. A cottage, on a cliff
with the sea under them. She noticed a light house in the distance. Her
mouth dropped, was he fucking kidding her?
Blake was glad to finally stop driving. He was tired, they'd been on the
road for over five hours all up and was glad that it was over. Following the
instructions on his phone he retrieved the key from the pot plant and
opened the door to this little cottage in the middle of nowhere. Turning on
the lights he was surprised at how cosy and romantic it truly was. Set up
in a Balinese style decor, it was very beautiful. He noticed there was
champagne and chocolates and red rose petals thrown loosely on the
tables around the house. He heard Kendall walk in behind him and gasp.
She must approve.

Kendall wasn't expecting to see the cottages interior so beautiful, she

loved the artwork on the walls she loved the lounges made of wicker and
cushioning, comfortable enough to sit on yet wide enough for two people
to lay on together. And the roses added a nice touch. It was actually nice
to be here after that gruesome drive. Kendall went into the very stylish
kitchen and opened the fridge, Yes! Food, somebody had organized a
meal for them and all they needed to do was reheat it. She was hungry,
but above all she felt dirty and was in desperate need of a shower.

"I need my luggage." She kicked off her shoes

"Ask me nicely," infuriating man.

"Can you please bring down my luggage…"

"Good girl, yes I can... See how much easier that was?" Shut up already!
All Kendall wanted to do was shower, eat and sleep. She would deal with
everything else tomorrow.

Finally in the shower, Kendall wasn't disappointed with the bathroom. It

was immaculate, a huge free standing tub in the centre of the room and a
huge shower divided by a tiled wall. Big shower head that dropped from
the ceiling.

When finished drying herself Kendall wrapped a towel around her body
and one around her hair and walked to the bedroom. For Fuck sake she
had to unpack herself! Great.

Opening her suitcase on the floor she rummaged to see what nightwear
her mother packed for her. Of course it with all lingerie and skimpy
underwear. Fuck! Quickly deciding on lacy underpants, Kendall opened
his luggage, she pulled out one of his tee shirts and put in on, sure it
came to her knees but at least it was better than wearing her skimpy
lingerie. About to close his suitcase Kendall saw something that caught
her eye, it was a picture of that Jade girl he had kissed in view for all to
see. Interesting...

***

Blake took his shoes off and his shirt. He heard her in the room, he
decided to take a shower, and maybe the hot water would relax his
muscles a little. He showered and tried hard to relax. His bride nearly
killed the both of them. He needed to set her straight. If they were to
remain together even just for appearances then she was definitely in
need of a few lessons. When he was finished his shower, he quickly dried
himself and wrapped a towel around his waist.

Blake went to heat up some food, He realized she was in the room still
with the door closed and decided to get the food ready for her royal
highness, he would serve her today only because he was starving and
exhausted. He needed to choose his battles with her, he knew there
would be many battles ahead of them.

When Kendall decided to join him, Blake almost choked on his food.
Damn women was wearing his black tee shirt looking sexy as hell with
her hair wet and no makeup on. It actually shocked him that she wore
makeup at all, her face was flawless. She didn't need a thing. Why she
would think to need makeup was beyond him. He looked at his bride and
knew he was in trouble, her fucking body would tempt a saint.

Kendall was aware of how affected Blake was. She actually drew in a
breath as well, he was completely without any top on and only a towel
wrapped around his waist. He was so tanned and extremely well built.
His chest looked very hard as did his abs. His arms were muscly and his
entire look was sexy as hell. Still she acted like he didn't affect her one
little bit. Sitting on the small dining table Kendall filled her plate with rice
and a beef curry. It smelt glorious and she was just happy to be eating.

Blake was having a hard time trying to concentrate, his dick was reacting
to his wife and he had no control over it. Again always losing control
when it came to Kendall. Blake hated himself for reacting to her body. He
was betraying Jade just by thinking about Kendall sexually. He needed to
get his shit together, it wasn't right! It wasn’t his fault, she paraded like
that and expected him to remain unaffected... He wasn't made out of
stone. This issue needed to be addressed.

"Kendall, I see you are comfortable enough to go through my luggage,

I'm sure you have your own clothes."

"Yes and yes." Kendall wasn't concentrating on what he was saying, his
body was really affecting her and she didn't want to look at him.

"Kendall! I don't like to be ignored." She shook herself out of her trance.

"Sorry what? Did you say something?"

"Yes damn it I did, listen Kendall, I'm going to get straight to the point,
your clothing is a no go. I'm sure you have never been told what is
considered as appropriate attire. Now as you have pretty much lived as
you pleased for the last twenty five years of your life I get that perhaps
you don’t get that parading yourself is not on. But this is where it ends.
We are married and I'll not have you walking around like something that
came out of a wet dream."

"Listen Blake, I will dress as I please, do not think for a second that you
can tell me how I should and should not dress. I'm a big girl and do not
need your approval or your consent to do as I please. It's quite insulting
how you would assume I care that you worry about how I make you look.
Trust me honey, I'm doing you a favour, I'm making you and your entire
family not seem so pathetic. So please refrain telling me what to do."

Blake's eyes turned the colour of the night, black, he was obviously not
happy with her reply.

Little bitch was hitting every nerve, she was openly insulting his family,
how was he to deal with her, if another person had dared to whisper her
last remark they wouldn't live to see another day. And here she sits with
the a smug look on her face, like his whole presence actually annoyed
her. Like her conversing with him was actually a chore for her. "You dress
like a whore! you nearly killed us back at the fucking diner or have you
forgotten about that? I will not accept you walking around having every
man lust over you."

"Too bad... Suck it up! You'll have to do a lot better than that to get me to
abide by your rules. Let me put it to you in a way you can understand, I
don't really care what you want, I answer to nobody, especially not an
oversized baboon. So I hope your feeble mind can understand that."
Kendall stood up and left, she didn't want to be anywhere near Blake
fucking Wyatt.

"Don't fucking walk away from me!" He barked out.

"Goodnight." She waved to him not bothering to look back. He was on

her in seconds, he pushed her hard against the wall.

"I told you I don't like being ignored" He had her pressed against the wall
holding both her hands on either side of her head. She gasped clearly not
expecting that.

"And I've told you before I don't care what you want." Blake moved his
head closer to her, he whispered in her ear.

"You really are playing with fire." He ran his nose over her neck. "Do you
want to see what happens when you play with fire?" Blake moved his
mouth till he was just inches from her mouth. Kendall couldn't think, he
was confusing her, his mouth was almost on hers and Kendall slightly
opened her mouth anticipating his kiss. Coming to her senses she turned
her head away from him. "Princess afraid of a little heat?"

"Let me go, it's not your style to force a lady big boy, I'm sure Jade
wouldn't be amused." He abruptly let her go. She graced him with a
victorious smile. "It's okay Blake, I'll keep your secret, I'll not say a word
to Jade about how your wife turns you on." Kendall turned and walked
back into the room, leaving him feeling like a fucking fool. This bitch was
getting under his skin. He needed to focus, she was going to ruin
everything if he didn't get her under control. Fuck me, he thought, two
weeks of this...

Blake poured himself another scotch, and skulled it down. This pompous
princess was fucking going to screw up his life… He had a feeling that
she was not going down without a fucking fight.

***

Kendall was finding it hard to sleep, she was too worked up, his
behaviour had affected her, she was in a state of shock. When she had
felt his arousal, that actually had sent her body in a wave of lust. Keep it
together Kendall, he is the fucking enemy, you cannot allow him to affect
you!

Feigning sleep when she heard him walk into the room, she could smell
the alcohol on his breath. He moved into the bed beside her and turned
his back to her. Kendall opened her eyes and looked at his back, he was
fucking hot, and on his back he had a massive tattoo that covered most
of his back. It was of a cross and looked fucking sexy as hell. Forget him
Kendall, he was your father’s sworn enemy...

Chapter 5

Kendall felt like her whole body was being crushed. She tried to move
and heard a moan, holy shit, Blake had his leg and arm totally over her
body. She pushed him off her but the big baboon didn't budge. "Get offa
me!" Again trying to shove him off.

"Ask me nicely," the smug asshole was awake.

"I'm being crushed... Move already."

"Ask me nicely." For fucks sake!

"Please get off me."

"Good girl, see that wasn't so bad?" He moved away from her and sat up.
"Now that you’re up, I would like some breakfast please. Eggs on toast
will be nice." Kendall stared at Blake like he was totally insane.

"Yes I would love some too, sunny side up for me," she walked into the
bathroom. Finishing off her needs, washing her face and brushing her
teeth, Kendall was thinking if Blake was serious about her making
breakfast. He couldn't be serious, she didn't know the first thing about
cooking or heating or anything along those lines.

Blake waited for her to come out before throwing a tea towel at her and
walking into the bathroom. She will make breakfast else she starve. If she
thought he was going to wait on her hand and foot boy did she have
another thing coming. She would pull her weight around here if it’s the
last thing he made her do.

When Blake walked in the kitchen he actually smiled, his bride look
concerned. She had crushed four eggs and threw them out. "Whoa there,
I think we are limited on food supplies." He took the egg out of her hand
and showed her how it’s done. "How many do you need?"

"Enough for us..."

"Four, three for me and one for you." He cracked another egg and
showing her how it’s done. "Have a go." Kendall grabbed and egg and
was giving it a go, "don't bang so hard." She did it. Her smile actually
reached her eyes, Blake was in awe by her beauty. Kendall cracked
another one and clapped when it cracked open perfectly. "See you’re a
natural."

"So with what do I fry it with?" She really didn't have a clue what she was
doing but she was giving it a go. Blake took the butter out and added it to
the pan, he put four pieces of bread in the toaster and directed her to add
the eggs. He was there guiding her and she pulled through.

"Breakfast is served." She sounded so proud of herself. Blake poured

them both a cup of coffee and placed a cup in front of her. Blake was
impressed at her cooperation, he didn't think for a moment she would
attempt to make breakfast. They ate in silence.

Kendall left him to wash up after breakfast. She decided to put some
clothes on and have a look around outside. She opted to wear a short
summer dress and strappy sandals. The dress was a blue baby doll
dress and she loved it. She tied her hair in a high pony tail and applied
some gloss, not wanting to apply makeup, there was nobody she wanted
to impress here anyway.

Walking outside Kendall felt the crisp breeze, it was glorious. The sun
was shining the sky was blue. She walked to the edge of the cliff and
looked down at the ocean, wow it was such a peaceful sight. Kendall was
taken by the motion of the ocean, it was very relaxing to just hang about
and watch.

***

Blake finished washing up, he changed into a pair of denim jeans and a
black singlet that hugged his chest. He wasn't sure where Kendall was,
she couldn’t go far, probably just looking around.

Blake inspected their food supply and was almost certain that it would
last them a week. He would have to go down and catch them some fish.
Michael you son of a bitch what game are you playing at?

Kendall finished her walk and decided to head back, she had walked into
bush land and didn't think it wise to continue, now if she could only
remember what direction back was. Shit Kendall what if you can't get
back? And what if he doesn't find you? Or what if he deliberately leaves
you here to die? Oh hell now you’re in for it now.

Starting to panic and finding it very hard to breathe Kendall was almost in
tears. "What in god’s name are you doing here?" Kendall turned so fast
and spotted Blake. Oh thank The Lord.

"I was just looking around and I think I wondered too far and I couldn't
remember the way back."
"Good it will teach you to wonder on your own again. You wouldn't
survive a night here alone I assure you." Blake turned around and
headed back. Kendall followed his every step.

When they finally reached the house Kendall ran to the fridge and
opened up a soda. She gulped in down, boy she was thirsty. Blake
watched her drink her beverage, fuck everything this kid did was sexy.
And what the fuck was she wearing? For heaven’s sake did she not know
that she couldn’t walk around like that, it shouldn't be fucking legal. Blake
dropped onto the sofa and leaned back, just observing his pain in the ass
wife.

"Well this is going to get old fast."

"What is?" Blake was intrigued to hear this one.

"Us in here, What are we meant to do for two weeks, I'll lose my mind.
Can't we go somewhere else and like pretend we stayed here? Nobody
will know."

"They'll know. Do you honestly think for a second that we are not being
monitored? Come on bride I'm sure there’s something in that pretty head
of yours." Kendall threw off her sandals and sat beside him.

"Seriously, do you think we can stay this long and not kill each other?
Hey maybe that was Michaels plan. Kill each other out."

"You are ridiculous." Kendall rolled her eyes.

"I need to know how many partners you've been with."

"Why could you possibly need to know that? It's not your concern. Gees,
mind your own."

"Okay this is getting tiresome, it is my concern, firstly because your my

fucking wife and secondly because if we are going to consummate our
marriage I want to know if you’re safe."
"We are not consummating anything. I don't care what the requirements
of the pact is. You my dear can go consummate yourself. For your
information I'm safer than any girl you've been with. I wouldn’t allow just
any fucker to touch this." Kendall pointed to her body up and down. Blake
was getting pissed at her high and mighty attitude. Keep it together
Blake, you’re the reasonable one remember.

"Kendall you’re trying my patience. Answer the goddamn question, give

me a number."

"Ask me nicely." She was playing him and Blake was not impressed at
all.

"You know what I’ll check myself, as I told you yesterday, you can tell a
lot by fingering a woman's. ..."

"Stop it your vulgar! I've already told you if you that I haven't been with
anybody before. Father wanted me to be pure for my marriage. Of course
that was a complete waste of time considering I ended up with you. I
guess I'll have to make up for the lack of sex now. Suppose I can have
my fun while being married."

"You honestly think I'll allow my wife to fuck around? And again I don't
think I believe you about your partners." Kendall was fed up with Blake.

"I don't see how you can stop me! Anyway again I couldn't care less
whether or not you believe me." Blake was getting riled up. Kendall
wanted to laugh, he was such an easy target. Pretending that he was
always so calm and collected. Whatever dude! Kendall liked to piss him
off. "Hey, don't be sad, you still have Jade."

That's it Blake had enough of her smart mouth, he grabbed her nape and
moved her in closer. "Kendall stop talking about Jade or my family, or so
help me god I'll fucking have you bound and gagged for the remainder of
our stay. Is that understood?"
"Such a delicate topic, don't cry big boy, she'll still have you. I'm sure
she's crying for you every night thinking about you are fucking your brand
new wife, because it’s a requirement not because your dick gets hard
every time you are around me." That's it Blake's patience just ended. He
grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled her up to stand. She winced, he
was obviously hurting her.

"Get your fucking hands off me! How the hell dare you?" He was hurting
her, and he looked furious.

"How the hell dare I? You are just itching for a punishment aren't you?
Let's get this over and done with, you need to learn your place." Blake
dragged Kendall into the bedroom and her heart dropped, he wouldn't
dare touch her intimately... Would he? Kendall started kicking and
punching at him widely, it was laughable, he was way too strong and he
wasn't even trying very hard. Blake grabbed her wrists in a tight grip
while he tossed her onto the bed. He was atop her straddling her, he still
had her wrists captured and now he had her legs secured between his.

"Get off me! This is rape!" Blake's black eyes bore into hers.

"Who said anything about rape?" Blake could feel his dick harden, he
was actually very turned on by the struggle.

"Let me go Blake... Please" He smiled at her feeble attempt to get him to

let her go.

"Please? A little too late to play nice now Princess." Blake was looking
around for something to restrain this little hot head with, He found the
dress she wore yesterday on the floor by the bed and picked it up.
Putting her hands under his knees to keep her still he tore her dress in
half.

"What the hell? That dress cost me a fortune."

"Yes I’m sure it did, guess what? I don't give a crap."

Kendall wasn't sure what he was planning to do. Blake roughly turned her
onto her stomach and grabbed both her harms tying them together
behind her back. She tried to struggle but felt his dick hard against her
butt and stopped immediately. Turning her back around he secured her
ankles together. "Blake, you son of a bitch, untie me now. You have not
right to do this!"

"Wrong again princess, I'm your fucking husband and you will learn to
respect and fucking obey me."

"Obey you? Doesn't Jade play the obedient lover with you? Is that why
you feel the need to force me into that role?"

"You don't fucking learn. Fine let's play this your way." He moved off the
bed and searched the room for something to shut her fucking mouth with.
He opened her suitcase and pulled out her underpants and stuffed them
in her mouth, and then securing them to stay in with another piece of
material from her ruined dress. "You will learn to fucking respect me."
With that he left her in the room helpless and closed the door behind him.
By god he was losing his sanity. Tying up a women was the last thing he
ever thought he was capable of. It was never something he thought he'd
have to do one day.

Chapter 6

Blake left her restrained until dinner. He left her without water or lunch,
wanting to teach her to talk to him like that. He had defrosted some soup
and garlic bread for dinner and filled himself a plate. He grabbed a bottle
of water and a straw, and put them on a tray, was time to check up on his
little vixen. When he opened the door she looked up at him with wild
eyes. She had been crying and was looking like she wanted to kill him.

"Hungry?" Blake placed the tray on the bed side table and undid her gag.
He placed the straw in her mouth and let her sip some water. Poor kid
was thirsty. "Before you lash insults are you going to behave?" He was
taking his time stirring the soup. "I'm more than willing to leave you here
for another day or two until you learn your lesson."

"I need to use the toilet." Shit Blake hadn't thought of that.

"Answer the question first." He couldn’t act as though he regretted his

actions. It would come across as a weakness.

"Yes I'll behave, now please I’m about to erupt." He untied her legs and
her arms, Kendall stretched, her body was aching, without so much as
looking at him she hurried into the ladies room to do her business.
Mother Fucker was going to pay for this. When she had finished Kendall
didn't return to the room she made her way to the front door and stepped
outside. The cool air hit her face and she invited the coolness. Her tears
were falling down her face and she did not want to him to see her
succumb to tears because of him.

Never in all her life had she been treated so badly. She felt like killing
him, did he know who she was? Did he know who her father was? He
would pay dearly for this. She was going to fuck up his entire world. She
was going to make him file for divorce if it was the last thing she did, then
she would fuck up all his opportunities and screw him over leaving him
with fuck all!

Blake did not feel bad at all her. He was actually thinking that maybe she
will have learnt a lesson in all this. He would teach her to respect him.
Not that Blake ever had to worry about lack of respect by anybody he'd
ever met. The only other person that had openly disrespected Blake was
Augustus Hasting. Blake loathed that prick and swore vengeance for the
way he humiliated his father.


Augustus had taken Blake's mother and made her the whore she was,
when she returned from her affair Blake's father did the unimaginable to
her. In fact come to think of it, a little of how he treated Kendall was how
Thomas Wyatt had treated his wife many years ago. It never disgusted
Blake to know his mother was being abused and tortured, he was well
aware she deserved every last bit of her treatment. How his mother died
was still a speculation. Apparently she chose to end her life. Rumours
were spread that Thomas had gone too far and killed his cheating wife.
Whatever the truth was Augustus Hasting was to blame for his father’s
early death. He died of a broken heart, suffering a heart attack not long
after his mother had died. Thomas never thought it necessary to explain
specifics to Blake.

Thomas had directed Blake into ruling their empire and building more and
more complexes to increase their wealth. Blake took on the role with
such ferocity that Augustus didn't know what hit him. Being partnered
with that prick made things very hard for Blake, Michael who was main
owner of the three was the mediator and the one doing all the negotiating
between the two families. Michael Lucius was his god father and his
mentor. Only recently he found out that he was also Kendall's godfather
as well. Fucking conniving Augustus didn't want a bias partner.

Kendall really didn't want to return inside, she was way too worked up at
how he had left her tied up and alone for so long. But she was hungry
and Kendall didn't do hungry well at all. Deciding to go back inside,
Kendall made her way the kitchen and filled a bowl of the soup. She
grabbed two slices of garlic bread and sat on the table to eat her dinner.
Blake was having a shower and that was fine with her, she didn't want to
see his stupid face anyway. He was a strong one, she had to admit that,
and she was aware he was more than capable of hurting her.

When Blake came into the kitchen wearing nothing but his pyjama
bottoms Kendall turned her face away, she clearly found him attractive
but didn't want him to know that face. "When you finish your dinner we
need to discuss a few things." Kendall chose not to reply, she continued
eating and acting like her didn't exist.

Blake really didn't like to be ignored and he had mentioned that to her a
few times. This kid really had a stubborn streak. "Kendall, I've already
warned you that I don't like to be ignored. Did you hear what I said."

"Loud and clear." He shook his head exasperated at the little witch.

Kendall took her sweet time eating her soup, she wouldn't rush for that
big ox. When she finished her meal she slowly took her plates to the
kitchen, opened up a can of soda then made her way leisurely to the
living area. Kendall could see the tension in Blake's neck. Crossing her
legs like she was in school, Kendall looked at Blake waiting for whatever
it was he had to say.

"Kendall, do you really think it's in your best interest to rile me up? If
you’re a sucker for punishment trust me kid I know a lot of ways to make
your life miserable."

"Is this what you want to discuss? How to punish me?"

"It is now! Listen carefully Kendall, I am now demanding respect from

you. I am not going to put up with your shit for much longer. I have tried
to be as patient as I can with you, but you continue to push me. It’s bad
enough I have to be married to the thing I detest most in this world. I feel
physically sick every time I remember I'm married to a fucking Hasting.
And you remind me every opportunity what you are. You are a whore, its
karma, your father raised a fucking whore, and now his whore is married
to his enemy. Sometimes revenge is best when you do nothing at all! I
fucking hope your father is turning in his grave, because my dear I have
now decided to punish his little princess for all the fucking shit he's
caused my family. If you decide to try me further trust me you will be in
for a fucking surprise." Any control Blake ever had went flying out the
door. The more he spoke the angrier her felt, what was scary was he
meant every single word.

Kendall couldn't believe the words that were coming out of his mouth. He
was speaking about the only person in the world that meant something to
her. Her father was her hero, and this filth had no right to speak ill of him.
"You and your father wish you were half the man my father was." She
snapped. Blake looked murderous "You are not worthy to speak of my
father, step down Blake the Wyatt's are nothing in our field, never were
and never will be."

"Worthy! Kendall you are now a Wyatt, our child will be a Wyatt, and you
will grovel at my feet by the time I'm through with you." He promised.

"Our child? Oh you are so deluded, do you think I will ever mother a child
from you? I would happily without any regret abort, and what’s more, I will
never sleep with you, I don't need your blood to taint mine." Blake saw
red. Everything his father ever said about this family was true. They are
evil, manipulative, cunning back stabbing snobs. Blake wanted to hurt her
severely, for some reason all his calmness and patience he had acquired
through the years left him.

He was always able to resolve any situation no matter how heated it was
with playing the passive aggressive, Blake couldn't remember the last
time he lost his cool. Kendall was actually taking away the very man he
trained himself to be. All Blake was thinking was how his father became
when his mother pushed his limits. This was like replaying a movie, his
mother once made the mistake of telling Thomas that he wasn't half the
man Augustus was and that ended pretty bad for his mother.

Blake decided to let nature take its course, he was his father’s son after
all, he would do as his father done and demand total obedience. His wife
here was going to pay for every last thing her father ever did to them. "To
taint your blood line princess?" Blake grabbed her roughly forcing her up.
"Take that pathetic piece of material off." She looked at him with wide
eyes. “Your dress, take it off!"

"Fuck you!" She tried to pull away from him starting to panic. He was just
too strong for her, in an instant he had her dress over her head and
discarded on the floor. She was left only in lace underpants and a
matching pink bra. Kendall never been shy of her body, felt a little
exposed.

"You want to play princess, let's play." He grabbed her arm and pulled her
toward him. Kendall slapped him with all of her strength. Without warning
Blake slapped her with the back of his hand landing her onto the sofa.
"Get up!" He barked at her. Kendall felt her face was on fire. Her eye felt
like it too had received that smack. "Get the fuck up!" Kendall stood on
shaky legs. Not believing he had actually struck her. She placed her hand
on her face as if in total shock. "Let's try this again, strip for your
husband." No this was not happening, he was really scaring her now. Still
if she learnt anything in her father’s care was never back down.

"Go to hell!" Blake smiled before striking her again, this time harder and
on the same cheek. She fell onto the sofa again. Blake didn't know what
got into him, he was loving her look of disbelief, he actually enjoyed
inflicting her pain. Yes Blake, you are your father’s son, now there be no
doubt in that. He was just getting started, his dick was bulging through his
pants, her body was the fucking sexiest thing he'd ever laid eyes on, and
what’s more, him striking her was just adding to his arousal. She was his
wife to do as he pleased with. She would rue the day she met Blake
Wyatt.

"Get up!" Once again she stood. Kendall's cheek was blood red, he
gloated to himself. "Strip, this is your last warning Kendall." He watched
as she contemplated whether or not to listen to his order. She drew in a
breath.

"No." Lifting her head with all the pride of a princess. Kendall would let
him do his worst. She wouldn't back down from him. She loathed and
detested him. He smiled again and grabbed her arm before turning her
around and slamming her head onto the sofa. He roughly pulled her
pants down and she heard him hiss in a breath. Kendall was not sure
he'd go through with it, she hoped that he would see the reason that he
was famous for, before he did something unforgiveable.
Kendall screamed as he forced his dick into her womanhood. Never had
she felt pain as this before in her entire life. He slammed into her again,
trying to break the barrier of resistance. This animal was taking away her
purity that she promised her father for his sick reasons. Kendall couldn't
hold back her cries, she knew the moment her found his way inside her
essence because she felt the last bit of resistance give way. It was
torturous, he was hurting her beyond belief, she could do nothing but let it
happen. Her tears flowed freely.

Blake was euphoric, he fucked her tight cunt and loved every minute of it.
She hadn't been lying, she really had been a virgin... That just made his
lust roar to new heights. He fucked her like he's never fucked anybody in
his life, he let out all of his frustrations on her, thrusting with force and not
allowing her time to adjust to his size. The more he heard her whimper
and cry the harder he fucked her. Where was the old Blake who would
never hurt a woman let alone take one by force? It seemed like he was
long gone.

Kendall felt like she was being torn apart, to add further humiliation he
grabbed a fistful of hair and pulled her head back while fucking her. Her
scalp felt like it was being ripped form her head. "What's your name?" His
voice sounded foreign to her, strained and deeper. He continued to fuck
her mercilessly "What's your fucking name?" She didn't understand why
he would ask such a thing especially while fucking her senseless

"Kendall, my name is Kendall!" She cried out. He pulled on her hair

harder as if about to pull it out of her skull.

"Kendall what?" He was really hurting her, she was crying out in pain and
he wouldn't relent.

"Kendall Hasting!" Was that what he was after?

"Wrong fucking answer!" He pulled her up by her hair until her head was
near his all the while his cock still inside her. "Kendall Wyatt... Say it...
Kendall Wyatt" And he continued to fuck her vigorously, she was in
excruciating pain. "Say It!"
"Kendall Wyatt... My name is Kendall Wyatt!" He pressed her head down
onto the sofa again while her fucked her into his orgasm spilling his seed
deep within her. He waiting for every last drop to enter her and he pulled
out. Never in all his thirty four years had he experienced sex like this. He
needed a minute to recover from that explosion.

He watched her lift up her underpants and run into the shower. What the
fuck had he just done? He just took what was his, he will not feel guilty, it
was all part of the pact anyway, and the sex was going to happen sooner
or later.

Chapter 7

Kendall scrubbed herself, wanting his smell off her, his cum was oozing
down her legs mixed with blood and she wanted to throw up. He just
raped her. He was rough and abusive and he took away the one thing
she had been holding onto. Her father always wanted her husband to be
gifted with her virginity, but her poor father never thought she would be
forced to marry none other than Blake Wyatt.

Kendall was aware of his attraction to her, his dick was hard every time
she was around, she wasn't dumb, she always knew when men were
attracted to her, they all lust the same way, in this case his bulge in
between his pants was a dead giveaway. She was going to kill him.
That's it her mind was made up and she wanted nothing more to do with
this caveman. She set her mind to it, and when Kendall set her mind to
something, she always went through with it.

Leaving the bathroom in the bathrobe that was hanging she made her
way into the room to avoid seeing him and went straight to bed. She
wanted this night to end, He fucking tied her up and then raped her, and if
she continued to think about she would lose her mind. Think of
something else Kendall, think happy thoughts. She kept replaying that in
her head until the bliss of slumber drifted her away.

Blake was really fucked up. He just fucking raped a lady, a virgin, was he
out of his mind? Why did she bring out the worst in him? He thought
about Jade and her sweet face, how she would feel if she knew how he
had just fucked his bride and loved every last second of it. How he had
restrained and gagged her and then abused her before he raped her and
enjoyed it like he'd never enjoyed anything in his life. Jade wouldn't
understand, their sex was always nice, she got off, he got off and they
snuggled. Nothing as intense and alarming as this. He couldn't even
imagine doing rough with Jade, he once got a little carried away and she
cried for a week.

Kendall felt herself being crushed again. She quickly pushed him away
and winced at the pain between her legs. Memories of his abuse flooded
back. Her face felt tender to touch. The great big baboon was still asleep.
Kendall tried to get up but he wrapped his arm around her waist and
dragged her into his arms spooning her. "I need more sleep. Stay put."
He mumbled.

He didn't trust her to be alone. She was sure to do something stupid like
maybe stab him in his sleep. He tightened his arm around her and was
actually a little surprised that she didn't complain. He put a leg over her
as well trapping her in his embrace. She smelt wonderful, like a rich
person would smell like, His body was reacting to her being so close. He
honestly didn't understand it, she was not his type at all, if anything she
was the complete opposite of his type. He preferred the conservative
type, not so out there, so why was his body reacting to hers like it’s never
had pussy before? His thoughts drifted to her hot tight cunt, he wanted to
taste it, wanted to eat it. Fuck me, Blake thought, his bride was really
getting under his skin. All he thought about was fucking her. With that
thought Blake returned to sleep.

Kendall had never slept with anybody before, this whole experience was
daunting, she felt her privacy being invaded. She didn't know how to
have somebody in her personal space.

Here she was beside herself at how things escalated so quickly between
Blake and herself. She was aware of his reputation as being the cool,
calm and collected man, the reasonable one, the one you went to when
all else failed. He sure shocked the shit out of her when she realized she
had somehow unleashed his darker side. Way to go Kendall, now to
survive the next week and a half.

Finally after an hour Blake woke up. Kendall was still trapped in his arms.
He moved away allowing her leave. Without so much as a word Kendall
left the bed and headed straight for the bathroom to finish off her
toiletries. She was very sore, her body ached from the abuse of the day
before. Keep it together Kendall, Keep it together.

Kendall decided on making herself two pieces of toast and a cup of

coffee. She sat on the sofa and had her breakfast. When Blake joined her
on the sofa he took her cup and drank from it, he also took the toast she
had started to eat and finished it off with a few bites. Kendall chose not to
say anything and waited for him to return her coffee. He took another
gulp and handed it back to her... Jack ass.

Blake loved the way she was trying to show him she was unaffected by
his actions. He would break her completely before they returned from this
god forsaken honeymoon. She was still in the bathrobe and his body
instantly reacted to the sight of her. Down boy, Blake urged his penis to
gather some decorum. He watched her finish her meal then she left and
went to the room. What the hell was he going to do? Things were
spiralling out of control.
Kendall put her denim shorts on and a black singlet that exposed her
stomach and showed her belly ring. She wore white flat lace up shoes.
Opting on doing her hair in a high bun atop her head she put on her
sunglasses and decided on walking down to the beach. She already
discovered a way down, winding stairs and were steep. Still she'd risk it
to get away from her good for nothing husband.

"Where do you think you are going?" Really wanting to ignore him she
chose not create a scene so early in the morning.

"I'm going for a walk on the beach."

"It’s too dangerous to go alone." She wanted to slap his face again.

"It’s the alone part that I want. If I should die, you get everything right? I
don't get your concern."

"I'll go with you, give me a minute to change." He left her looking dumbly
after him. He would just have to catch up. She left not bothering to wait
for him.

Kendell made her way to the stairs and slowly started descending down.
It was pretty scary, still she really did want to be alone. She took one step
at a time, when she was almost half way she heard him yell above her.
"Hold on you silly girl!" She held on quickly and continued to make her
way down. He was behind her in no time at all and this pissed her off.
She was slowly walking down trying not to fall to her death and here he
was running down the stairs like they weren’t positioned in a dangerous
way.

"You just couldn't wait could you?"

"I don't think I asked for your help, I don't need to be saved so run along
and do your own thing. I want to be alone and you’re kind of cramping my
style." She moved away from him when she reached the sand. She took
her shoes off and headed for the water. It felt wonderful to have the little
waves splashing her feet. Kendall threw her shoes down and walked the
shore. She didn't know or care where he was and what he was doing.

Blake watched his wife walk along the water. She had a body people only
dreamed off. She was curvaceous with a full behind that would make any
man drool. Her waist was thin and her boobs were full and high. Her
entire body was the same colour, she must tan in the nude. His dick
jolted in his shorts. Fuck how was this ever going to work. Jade would
know he was sexually attracted to Kendall.

He loved Jade more than anything in the world but he was fucking lusting
over his wife like a randy lad. Jade was sure to pick up on it.

Kendall decided to lay on the sand and forget her worries. She was sure
that Blake would want a repeat of yesterday, she would avoid conflict at
all cost to stop any more sexual encounters. Her pussy was still sore, and
the shorts were adding to her discomfort. She unbuttoned her shorts and
pulled them down a little. Kendall closed her eyes and enjoyed the
sunlight on her face.

What the hell was she up to now? Blake wanted to get up to the house.
He went to fetch her only to stop in his tracks. She had pulled her shorts
down and he could see her blue lacy underpants. He already knew she
wore the matching bra because he could see the strap. His mouth
watered. Holy Fuck this was seriously becoming an issue. He couldn't
contain his cock when she was near. "Let's go."

Kendall opened her eyes and noticed that Blake was pissed as usual "I'm
not done."

"Kendall Now!" She huffed as she stood up and wiped the sand off her
bum and back.

"If you recall I never asked you to join me," she was over him and his
stupid demands.

"If you recall I told you not to walk around dressed like a fucking porn
star." Kendall looked at herself and wondered how she looked like a porn
star in her casual clothes. She buttoned her shorts and slipped her feet
into her shoes. The walk back was gruesome. Blake was behind her and
every time she slowed down or nearly tripped her had his hands on her
ass to steady her. She noticed his hand lingered for a little too long.

Blake was going to cum in his pants, he couldn't seem to keep his hands
off her. Just like her father, she used her sexuality to get what she
wanted. His mother was the same, using her body to get the best from
anybody she could. Shaking the thoughts from his mind he decided it's
time to see if she had learnt anything these past few days. "I'm hungry,
make some lunch."

Kendall walked into the house wanting to slam the door in his face
"Really you want to treat me like a fucking slave?"

"Spot on kid." He left her to sort herself out. The word slave sounded
perfect for the little princess, she was his slave now do as he pleased
with her. Blake couldn't play nice anymore, even if he wanted to, she had
pushed too far and now she had to deal with his wrath.

Chapter 8

Kendall was fuming by Blake's audacity, how dare he treat her like she
was nothing? Fine she would play along, bide your time Kendall, bide
your time. They would return to civilization soon enough, when they did,
she would use every connection she had to ruin him. She would hire a hit
man to kill him. Kendall was furious with the way he had abused her body
and the way he demanded she obey him.

Deciding on making lunch and keeping the peace, Kendall was at a loss,
she opened up the fridge and took out some bread, mayonnaise, cold
chicken slices and tomatoes. She prepared them as best as she could
and was quite satisfied with herself at the outcome. Nothing gourmet still
it looked appetizing enough.

When Blake entered the kitchen he was actually a little shocked that she
had done as he ordered. What game was she playing at? Kendall had
her back to him as she was rinsing the cups that were in the sink from
earlier on. She looked so goddamn sexy and his dick just wouldn't relent.



He was in pain at how much his cock wanted in her. Not even paying
attention to what he was doing, Blake moved behind her, his chest was
on her back and his crotch was rubbing up on her backside. Kendall
stiffened, "What do you think you’re doing?"

"I'm touching what's mine..." He turned off the tap and turned her body
around to face him. Her big brown eyes looked up at him and his cock
jolted. He noticed she inhaled a breath. "I'm going to fuck what belongs to
me."

"Let me go, I don't want this." Kendall tried to push past him. Blake
wouldn't allow her the space. He bought his head down and kissed her
gently on the lips.

"I don't remembering asking if you do or don't want this," he whispered

while nuzzling her neck. Kendall felt her entire body shiver. He lifted her
and wrapped her legs around his waist walking with her, he placed her on
the dining table and pulled her shorts down off her body and discarded
them. Kendall was in a state like dream, she had no idea why she was
not fighting him, he gently pushed her to lay on the table while he opened
her legs and stroked her pussy.

Blake could feel the heat coming out of her pussy, he was desperate to
taste her, that's all he had thought about from the moment he laid his
eyes on her. He bent his head and licked her fiery pussy, he slowly
dragging his tongue up and down her delicious cunt, earning a moan
from her. He was in heaven, he loved the taste of her juices, she was
something else. He licked her clit and teased it until it was red and
swollen. She was moving her hips and moaning. Fuck yeah, he applied
more pressure onto her clit and she started undulating.

"Please... Oh fuck please!"

"Please what Kendall? Please let you cum? Do you deserve to cum
princess?" Fuck he was playing with her, her body was screaming for
release, she needed this, just a little more and she would be able to
fucking reach her climax.

"Blake, Please…" Blake lifted his head and looked at this sex goddess
spread on the table like she was a sacrifice. Her eyes were pure lust and
frustration. Blake smiled to himself when she bought her hand down to
finish herself...

"No, no princess, this here is mine to please... Or punish." He cupped her

pussy emphasizing he meant what he said.

"I need to cum... Why start it if you’re not going to finish it?" Blake nodded
his head.

"Oh baby I’m going to finish it." He pulled her up and slammed his cock
into her, Kendall threw her head back and moaned, Blake continued to
tease her clit as he thrust vigorously inside her hot tight wet cunt. He was
in heaven. Blake could feel her pussy contract around his cock and was
ready for her orgasm, she yelled as soon as it hit her, and he followed her
home. He couldn't get enough of her, he kept thrusting into her until he
released every last bit of his spunk deep inside her womb. She was a
fucking piece of work alright.

Kendall pushed him away from her she wore her shorts and hurried into
the bathroom to wash. She wanted to eliminate any trace of him. Going in
the room and changing into leggings Kendall returned to the kitchen to
have her lunch. She was hungry and she wasn't about to let him know he
affected her. It was sex nothing more. Blake was already eating when
she grabbed her plate and a cup of juice. She went outside and sat on
the outdoor setting and ate her food alone.

Kendall was still recovering from that mind blowing orgasm. She had
never gotten off like that before. Being used to satisfying herself with
vibrators she never once thought she would reach the orgasm she
reached with Blake. Her body loved every second of it, even though she
was still very sore, it only added to the pleasure.

Don't let him affect you Kendall, he is your sworn enemy and only wants
to hurt you.

Blake finished his lunch and looked outside the back window, he watched
his bride eat and daydream. She seemed so lost in her thoughts. For the
second time, Blake had fucked his wife and he didn't know where his
aggression came from. She had unleashed a ferocious part of him that
he never knew existed. The control he wanted over her was beyond him.
He never needed that control with Jade, he was happy to have her love
and her loyalty. Why was it so different with Kendall he didn't
understand? He felt guilty every time he thought of Jade, but what could
he do? They needed to consummate the marriage, he was just doing
what he needed to do... Even trying to convince himself Blake knew it
was a lie, he'd already fucked her, he didn't need to do it again until they
were ready to have a child.

Kendall stood up and shook the crumbs off her. She took a sip of her
juice and went to sit on the edge, the cliff was steep, but if she would fall
there were rock landings just a few metres down, it wasn't like it went
straight down to the water. She loved the sunlight, it reminded her of her
summer vacations with her father. Oh how she missed her father, none of
this would happen if her father were still alive. Happy to be left alone,
Kendall watched the waves, there was something therapeutic about
watching them from this height.

Blake left her alone, he had pushed her, he pushed her physically and
emotionally today. He didn't want to continue this unhealthy relationship
with her, it disgusted him that he wasn't repulsed touching her. It
disgusted him how much his body craved her. She was everything he
loathed, she was for one thing a Hasting, and if that wasn't enough, then
everything else she represented, superficial, manipulative, conniving,
stubborn and too god damn sexy for his liking... Blake needed the next
week to hurry up and end, he needed to get away from her.

Chapter 9


The next few days were pretty much the same, Kendall would walk down
to the water and Blake would accompany her, he started fishing and
catching lobsters. She was happy to lay on the beach the entire day. She
swam a few times while he was knee deep in the water trying to catch
anything that moved. He would forever be telling her to get out of the
water that it wasn't safe. Kendall did as she was told most of the time.
She actually started enjoy cooking, except when she needed to put the
lobsters in the boiling water, that's when Blake stepped in and took over
the meal. He was very handy, Blake could fish and catch huge fish for
their dinner. He also managed to catch crab, which he would also cook.

Cooking gave Kendall something to do, she was much happier spending
time in the kitchen then getting bored to death. Blake had not attempted
to touch her since the dining table hot sex. He seemed to keep his
distance. A few times Kendall walked into the room to see him look at the
picture of Jade. He would quickly pack it away when he heard her
approach. Kendall found herself looking at Blake a lot when he wasn't
looking, she found him extremely sexy. Usually her type was the beach
boy surfer look preferably blond, not this god looking Adonis. Every
morning she would wake up entwined in his arms and legs, they always
seemed to find their bodies touching.

Blake was at a loss as to what to do with his wife once they returned. She
was really always on his mind. He just wanted to fuck her every time he
looked at her. Blake knew it was pure lust that controlled his attraction to
her, but it was getting to the point where she wouldn't leave his thoughts.
Kendall would prepare most meals, and that in itself was a huge step for
her. She was a pro at cracking eggs now and would almost high five
herself every time she made something with eggs.

She also took to the task of their washing, she hand washed everything
as there was no a washing machine, but it was something she took pride
in doing it. Blake could see Kendall learning how to do things for herself
for the first time in her life. She seemed surprised that it was actually
rewarding. Her smiles were amazing when they reached her huge brown
eyes. He felt drawn to watch her unravel the mysteries of living like a
commoner.

Blake tried to keep his distance, He was drowning in a sea of lust and
constant arousal, he needed to keep himself under control because Jade
didn't deserve to be hurt. If Blake only kept remembering she was a
Hasting then his hatred for her would return full force. His princess was
learning to serve a Wyatt and that was enough to keep him at length with
the little she devil.

It was their last night at the cottage, Kendall was suddenly very
apprehensive about returning to face everybody. She wasn't sure how
her and Blake were going to get along with the families around them. And
what of Jade? Would he continue to see her? Would she come to the
house and act like a visitor? Both Blake and Kendall needed to address
these issues as it had been avoided for two weeks.

When Kendall finished packing she wore his tee shirt and headed to the
living area to talk to him. He of course looked sexy as hell. He was in a
fitting white singlet and his pyjama bottoms. Her heart sped up every time
she observed him, he sure was a looker. She sat on the sofa away from
him "Blake, we need to talk, I think we've avoided the topic long enough.
What is going to happen when we return? You haven't let me know
anything and quite frankly I'm sick of being left in the dark about things
that involve me."

"What is it that you would like to know? We leave here tomorrow morning
and head back. You will stay at my place... That's it." Kendall shook her
head

"And what about relationships? I know that you and Jade have a
relationship, how is that going to work with me living there?"
"Jade will be living with us... She will be sharing my room." Something
hurt in Kendall's heart.

"Okay so we have done what is required of us so now we can date? That

sounds fair I suppose."

Blake almost choked on his beer, date other people... In her fucking
dreams. "You’re right, we need to sort this out now, Kendall you are my
wife, you will never date anybody in your fucking life! Understand that
from now, you belong to me, if you recall your name is now Kendall
Wyatt, which means I fucking own you. If my dear you think for a second
that you will be fucking anybody else you are sadly mistaken." Blake
watched as Kendall's eyes widened.

"So you can happily fuck Jade and anybody else you want and I have to
stick around and play the fucking wife? Boy are you sadly mistaken!"

"Kendall let’s leave here on a truce, I'm already fucking pissed as it is, do
not make this into a fucking fight you will not win."

"Explain to me how this is fair? I'm sorry I don't quite understand it so

please dumb down your answer in order for me understand it."

"I will be fucking Jade and I will lock your ass up if you decide to rebel.
Your fucking father made my mother into a fucking whore, I will not suffer
the fate of my father. Know this Kendall, I will happily chain you up in
order to keep you under control. I will not have my wife dating or fucking
anybody else. You are the third party here not Jade, so you fucking suck
it up or your life will take a turn for the worse. I'm sorry but it has to be
this way." Was he fucking for real? He would be fucking another woman
and she would have to accept it. No fucking chance, Kendall has never
been anybody's number two, she wasn't about to start now.

"Okay fine, I’ll abide by your one sided rules. But tell me this, what
happens when you want to fuck your wife? Will Jade sit by and wait
patiently for you to fuck me baby? Would she mind if you had your cock
in my pussy? What happens then baby? I've seen how your body reacts
to mine, I've seen the way you are forever looking at me, your eyes don't
lie baby, look at them now, your eyes want to fuck me baby, your body
wants to fuck me, your cock is dying to fuck me... How will you explain
that to poor Jade. She must truly love you to accept that." Kendall noticed
Blake getting uncomfortable, she wanted to show him exactly how bad he
wanted her and make him think twice about allowing Jade to move in.

Standing up Kendall slowly took of his tee shirt, leaving her with nothing
but a thong. Her breast were bare for him to see, and she allowed him his
fill. Walking slowly over to him, Kendall sat on his lap and straddled hem.
He hissed in a breath. Bringing her lips close to his. "Your body doesn't
lie baby. Look how hard you are?" She touched his erection and rubbed
him lightly.

Blake was losing himself, this witch was playing with him, he was going
crazy, he could feel the heat radiate from her pussy. Her full breast were
in his face and without thinking he took one nipple and sucked it. He felt
her gasp at the contact. He licked and sucked her nipple until it was fully
erect. He moved onto the other one doing the exact same thing. Kendal
started moving on him, She took his hand and led him to her pussy,
Blake was about to explode, she was fucking up his mind. She was wet
and hot and slick, he kept stroking her up and down and she was
withering atop him. Fuck she was too fucking sexy.

He harshly threw her onto the sofa and bought his head down to her
pussy, loving her taste. He bought his tongue into her cunt as far as he
could while using his fingers to play with her now swollen clit. Kendall
was in a frenzy. Her head was moving side to side in anticipation of her
climax. Blake wouldn't relent he continued to lick, suck and fuck her with
his mouth until her heard her scream into her orgasm. Still he refused to
stop until she went limp.

When Blake finally lifted his head, Kendall looked up at him and saw the
lust in his eyes. She wanted to bewitch him. Sitting up and making her
way onto the floor on her knees, Kendall pulled down his pants and
unleashed his massive cock. He was fully erect and for a second she lost
her nerve. But when she heard him hiss in a breath she regained her
confidence and licked the length of his cock. Kendall licked him up and
down, all the while fisting him. Feeling a little bolder, she put him in her
mouth. Kendall sucked him as best as she could, he was massive and
she couldn't take him in too far.

So what she lacked in her sucking abilities she made up with fisting him
with two hands. She heard him groan, Kendall was elated, she had him
exactly where she wanted him and that was in the palm of her hands.
She wanted to experience it all she wanted him to spill his seed into her
mouth, and that’s exactly what he did. Kendall felt him release his spunk
and it hit right to the back of her throat, forcing her to swallow it in one hit.

Wiping her mouth and standing up Kendall put the top on again and
headed into the room to sleep, leaving a very confused and satisfied
Blake to ponder what had just happened.

Chapter 10

The drive back was gruesome, they drove for hours, Blake was pissed at
what had occurred the previous night. He hated that she was aware of
his body's reaction to her. Fuck she wasn't going down without a fight,
and now she had a weapon and that was his weakness. She would use
her body to play him like a puppet, Blake needed to put some distance
between them, maybe he was overly attracted to her because she was
the only one around. That was the reason, what other explanation could
he have?

They drove passed the diner where Kendall had caused a fight, neither
Blake nor Kendall commented. Kendall was starting to feel uneasy, she
really didn't want to stay at his place, he would be in control, and it was
after all his domain. She needed to figure out a way to return home. He
made that comment about her father making his mother into a whore, she
had heard rumours but never thought to believe them. Whatever, she
didn't care, if his mother was stupid enough to fuck around it wasn't her
father’s fault. She was not going to pay for something his mother had
done.

"How long before we're there?"

"Bout half an hour." Kendall nodded. Blake was fucking tired and very
apprehensive, he was praying that she behaved, he didn't want to cause
a commotion on their return. In his heart he also hoped that Jade
wouldn't be there tonight, he needed to sort himself out. He also needed
to make Kendall understand the way he run his house hold. This was
tricky, his sister absolutely loathed the Hasting's, she never forgave them
for killing her mother. She always believed that Augustus Hasting was the
devil himself and he bought the plague into her home infecting her
mother with bad judgement. Lilliana witnessed his mother being tortured
as well as his brother Ryan. Their father always explained why he was
punishing Bella, he explained to them exactly how she disgraced him and
them as a family. Lilliana worshipped Thomas, she held on to every word
he said, so naturally after Thomas died, Lilliana's hatred for the entire
Hasting family spiralled out of control.

Kendall was finding it hard to breathe suddenly, she wanted to unzip the
jeans he all but forced her to wear saying that he didn't want her walking
around like a whore in his home. She reluctantly put them on, she also
chose to wear a white shirt she tied revealing her belly ring and showing
some cleavage. At least she wore the jeans right? She also wore leather
knee high boots and messed her hair. She decided to apply makeup
today, as to feel like herself. She put on a lot of mascara and eyeliner
making her already big eyes even more exotic. She opted to put red
lipstick on, just for fun, he didn't want a whore, she was fine with that but
he didn't say anything about her looking sexy as hell. She knew she
rocked the look and left with her head held high.

When Blake pulled up into a stunning looking mansion, Kendall was

actually a little surprised, she had assumed they weren't as well off as her
family were... She had been clearly mistaken. She moved out of the car
and stretched her arms above her head. She swayed side to side to
wake up her aching body. Within a minute of their arrival the front door
burst open and people were running to Blake, hugging and kissing him,
one girl jumped on him and he turned her around spinning her with love.
Another man that looked somewhat like Blake hugged him quickly and
gave him a playful punch on his shoulder. Then of course there was
Jade, she looked beautiful, she ran straight into Blake's arms and cried.
He kissed her and whispered something in her ear. Kendall felt herself
look away.

"Hey you must be Kendall, I'm Ryan Blake's brother, the better looking
brother I might add." He held out a hand and she hesitantly shook it.

"Nice to meet you," she felt very awkward. Blake was totally ignoring her
and she suddenly felt like crying. She had never felt so alone in her entire
life and what was worse was that she didn't have a single person to call
for comfort. Her mother was the last person she wanted to hear from...
So Kendall waited patiently for Blake.

Blake comforted Jade, poor kid these two weeks had been hard on her.
He noticed that Kendall looked out of place and gently took Jades hand.
"Lilliana, this is Kendall, Jade this is Kendall, I assume you have already
met Ryan? Lilliana is my sister." Kendall force a smile not reaching her
eyes.

"Hi." Blake could sense the tension already.

"Hey I'm starved please tell me the food is ready?"

"Yes darling, everything is ready and waiting for you." Blake had his arms
entwined with Jade's he pushed Kendall by placing his hand on the small
of her back and led her inside. He watched as her eyes scanned his
home. She didn't reveal anything by her facial expressions.

"Ryan can you show Kendall to her room to freshen up?"

"Will be my pleasure... After you Milady."

When Ryan placed her luggage in her room and left, Kendall couldn't
fight the tears. She quickly locked the door and sobbed to her hearts
content. Her life was a great big mess, Blake was totally ignoring her...
What did she really expect? She was nothing to him, actually she was the
one thing he loathed, and she couldn't forget that now could she? Why
did she suddenly feel so alone? Jade was all over him, playing the I can't
live without you game. Whatever she would have to accept his crap until
she figured out how to return home. Home to her fake friends and her
phony mother. Boy Kendall you are drowning in self-pity.

Blake wanted to eat and sleep, he wasn't up to the million questions that
Lilliana and Jade were bombarding him with. "So is she as spoilt as we
heard. They say she should have been a princess that's how stuck up
she is." Lilliana acting childish. Although she was Kendall's age she still
sometimes thought she could act like the baby in the house.

"That's enough Lilly."

"She's only asking what we all want to know, did she want you to serve
her? Did you serve her?" Blake pinched the bridge of his nose.

"I'm tired, and hungry can you please let me breathe before coming down
my throat. Seriously that’s enough, I'll not discuss this now” That shut
them up, Jade kissed him on the cheek and apologized for being so
inconsiderate.

Dinner was all together another ordeal. Everybody was chatting away
until Kendall was called to join them. Blake noticed how they all stopped
talking and silence filled the air. Kendall kept her head up, looking like
she truly fit the role of a princess. She looked even more amazing with
makeup, she looked like an Arabian princess the way her eyes were
dolled up.

"Patrick is an amazing cook, it will be a relief not to cook." Kendall

nodded her head again faking a smile. She didn't want Blake making
small talk for her convenience, they could talk amongst themselves, she
did not particularly care what they spoke about. Fucking Jade kept her
hands on Blake every opportunity she got. Kendall was losing her
patience. She refused to live in a house where she was not comfortable
and where the occupants chose to ignore her. When the awkward dinner
was finally over, Kendall wanted to flee, instead she did the next best
thing.

"I'm tired, so I guess I'll leave you all to bitch to your heart’s content."
With that she moved to Blake kissing him on the lips for everybody to
witness. "Goodnight baby." She walked away feeling like the bitch she
knew she was and loving every minute of their shocked faces. She heard
Ryan clear his throat and she smiled all the way to her room.

Blake drew in a breath and waited for the onslaught. "You let that filth kiss
you?" Lilliana and her high pitch voice that he detested.

"Yes Blake, you two seem very cosy together, did I miss something?"
Jade looked at Blake accusingly, He didn't know how to answer, the little
bitch knew exactly what she was doing. She fucking deserved a belting
for this.

"I don't see what the fuss is about, it was a goodnight kiss. I mean she is
his wife after all." Fucking Ryan! He had never been a fan of Jade and
this was his way of rubbing salt in the wound.

"Shut up Ryan, the fact that you even accept her eating with us is beyond
me. She is a fucking Hasting."

"Lilliana I said that's enough. She holds my name, I will not put up with
this talk every time she needs to be around us, can we please try and be
civil?"

"You’re a hundred precent right Ryan, she is his wife, maybe I should
remember that." Jade stood to leave and grabbed her arm and sat her on
his lap. He kissed her tenderly.

"Baby this is really hard. You know the conditions of the contract, I can't
break it. Yes she is my wife and yes she kissed me, honey she's only
trying to stir you guys up. It's not easy on her being an outsider coming
into the enemy’s lair. Let's please refrain from the dramas, it will only
make matters worse."

"Have you and her... You know made the marriage legit?" Fuck he really
was too tired to do this.

"Jade, please..." she broke down into sobs. Lilliana looked furious.

"Wow Blake and to think I thought your loyalty remained with your father.
Have you forgotten what our mother did, because of your princess's
fucking blood? I suppose I can understand the attraction, she reminds me
of mother in a way, so beautiful and sexy, making lesser men lust after
her. Is that what the princess is doing to you, making you lust after her?
She will do to you what Bella did to Father."

"Shut the fuck up Lilly, when did you become so fucking bitter? Kendall
had as much choice in the marriage as Blake did. Do not blame her for
mother’s mistake. Dad really did a number on you, He was a twisted fuck
for what he did to mom." Blake could see Ryan was about to lose his shit.
Ryan and Thomas always fought at the way he mistreated their mother.

"ENOUGH!" Blake moved Jade off his lap and banged the table hard.
"Not another fucking word from either of you, Understood? I will do
whatever the hell I want and I fucking dare anybody to question my
motives." He stormed off to give Kendall a piece of his mind. She was
after all the cause of this whole thing. The looks of the his siblings and
Jade were priceless, never was Blake one to lose his cool, and yell at
them, especially at Lilliana, he felt very protective towards her especially
since she took their father’s death the hardest.

Chapter 11

Kendall had just finished her shower, she wore a lingerie that her mother
had so boldly packed for her. It was a black chiffon piece. She wore lacy
underpants, not wanting to sleep in a thong. Her hair was atop her head
in a messy bun. She had wiped the makeup off her face and was ready
to leap into the oversized king bed. Moving the covers off the bed,
Kendall jumped when Blake stormed into her room. What the fuck? She
remembered locking the door.

Blake slammed the door hard behind him. "Um can I help you?" Kendall
noticed his eyes raging. Then he looked her up and turn and the rage she
saw turned to pure lust. "Hey my face is up her." She clicked her fingers
to her face. He seemed to shake himself out of his trance.

"What the fuck do you think you’re playing at?" Kendall hopped into her
bed and pulled the covers up to cover her legs. She was sitting like a
good little school girl and his fucking dick throbbed at the sight.

"What? Have I offended you? It was only a kiss big boy, you should feel
privileged." Blake ran a hand through his dark hair.
"Kendall don't fucking push me, I've got enough shit to deal with."

"What would you like me to do Blake? I'm being totally ignored! Not that I
really give a fuck, but I'd rather be anywhere but here. I really think I
should go back home and everybody will win."

"This is your fucking home, stop trying to stir trouble." He looked hard at
her, fuck she was a sight. Her lips were so full and luscious he wanted to
fucking kiss her till they bruised.

"This will never be my home, the sooner you understand that the better. I
would rather live off the fucking street then ever consider this my home.
Run back to Jade Blake, she is so much more in your league honey. Oh
and if you don't mind, don't barge into my room again, I don't like
unwanted nuisances coming in and out of my room as they please."
Blake looked at his bride dumbfounded. She was talking down to him
again and he didn't like that one little bit. He moved toward her
predatorily and grabbed her neck in a painful grip. Her big eyes looked up
at him and he could see fear.

"Kendall, if you need to be bound and gagged again I have many

resources here, instead of material I have chains and cuffs and even
whips and canes. So if you think to continue acting like your too good for
me I will have no problem reminding you exactly where your place is.
Push anymore and see if I don't carry my threat through." He squeezed
her neck and kissed her hard on her lips before letting her go.

Kendall could see the arousal in his eyes, he was lingering just looking at
her. "Take the covers off." She raised an eyebrow and being the ever
obedient person that she was she slowly kicked the covers off her. He
ran a hand across his mouth. Kendall could feel his struggle and she
loved every minute of it. She deliberately pouted her lips and licked them.

"Have you had enough ogling your wife? I'm tired and would like to
sleep." Blake cursed under his breath as he left the room. She heard him
lock it. What the hell was his problem? She was behaving better then she
gave herself credit for. Fuck him, if his Brady Bunch continued to treat her
like she was a ghost then she would continue to stir the fucking pot!

Blake had an erection the size of a fucking palm tree. He was in

excruciating pain. His little bride was fucking him up intentionally. How
the hell was he going to cope? He had Jade on one hand eager for his
affection, usually he would have been more than happy to accommodate
her, but in this case he wanted to fuck Kendall. It surprised him that Jade
wasn't his first choice. He loved Jade he loved her a lot, but he had a
sense of needing to be near his pain in the ass wife. What the fuck was
he going to do now?

After showering and trying to bring his arousal down a notch, he moved
into his bed. He needed to sleep, all day on the road tired him the fuck
out. Just as he was about to fall asleep, Jade entered his room quietly
and moved in beside him. Blake feigned sleep, he couldn't deal with her
now, he just wanted to rest and pretend the world was normal and that
little vixen across the hall hadn't turned his life upside down.

Kendall was up bright and early. That sleep had done wonders for her.
She was dressed and ready to leave this house for a while. Shopping
always made everything better. Opting to don black leather pants and
white halter neck top that was completely backless, and black studded
heels to complete her look, she felt like a million dollars. She left her hair
down and applied a little makeup, she was ready to take on the world.

Luckily she found her door unlocked as she headed down the stairs.
Ryan walked passed and did a double take. "Fuck me... Sorry, but your
fucking hot." Kendall laughed. That was the nicest thing anybody had
said to her in over two weeks. "Blake asked me to get you for breakfast."

"Thank you Ryan... So I guess you were the one who got the charms in
the family also?" It was Ryan's turn to laugh.

"Now you are talking, I've been trying to tell them that forever." He took
her hand and led her to the dining room. Blake's eyes almost jumped out
of his head.
"Good morning." She gracefully sat down. "So how are we all today?"

"I'm fucking great Kendall how bout yourself?" Ryan was a hoot.

"You know what Ryan I'm fucking great too." They shared a laugh and
everybody else sat stunned. Loving the reaction of their faces Kendall
decided to tell Blake of her plans for the day.

"I wish to go shopping after breakfast. I need to be taken to the shops

and back then I wish to return home and just get a few more of my
things." Blake's mouth went dry. She was dressed like a porn star again
and again she was demanding things from him. She was openly flirting
with Ryan and that pissed him off beyond belief. Jade was waiting for a
reaction from him and Lilliana looked like she was having heart failure.

"No problem Kendall, as soon as you change your clothes, I'll be happy
to organize a ride for you." He continued to eat his breakfast like it didn't
bother him at all that she was dressed like a fucking sex toy.

"I beg your pardon? What's wrong with the way I'm dressed? I think I look
nice."

"I think she looks down right hot... Just saying." Ryan you prick shut the
fuck up, Blake wanted to punch his mouth out.

"We've already been through this, you’re my goddamn wife and I will not
allow you to parade yourself like a fucking porn star. It's too early for this
shit Kendall."

"Honey, I don't think there's anything wrong with her outfit." Kendall
couldn't believe what Jade had just said. What the hell was she playing
at?

"Jade please... She's my..."

"I know Blake, she's your wife, I just don't understand why it's an issue at
all. She is obviously comfortable in her skin, that's not a bad thing.
Anyway babe, I think everybody already knows that this marriage is a
farce and nobody will even tie you two together. Let's not fool ourselves,
for appearances sake, we all know it’s a sham marriage so let's not
pretend otherwise."

Jade wasn't as innocent as she made herself appear, Kendall was onto
her, she was manipulating the situation to suit her. Whatever as long as
Blake let Kendall out it was all good. Little bitch was playing the fucking
game.

"See it’s no big deal." Kendall smiled at Blake, he scowled at her.

"You’re not leaving this house dressed like that, that's it, either you
change or you can spend the day here. Choice is yours." He was over
this shit, he had warned her.

"Fine I’ll change, Gees you have some serious issues dude, we have
passed the caveman era, you need to evolve with the times."

"Don't be cute Kendall I'm really not in the mood." Kendall shrugged her
shoulders and continued to eat her breakfast. Lilliana was giving her
death stares.

"Okay what the hell is your problem? I don't appreciate being stared at."

"Problem? You’re my problem. You sit there and think you are above us.
Who do you think you are? You are in my home and you are acting like
you are too good for us."

"Lilliana for heaven’s sake" Blake was losing his cool again. Too early in
the fucking morning…

"Why do I have to pretend to like her? She is nothing to me, I feel sick to
my stomach whenever she sits with us for a meal. I want to throw up my
food."

"Lilliana shut your fucking mouth" Kendall was staring at Ryan who
jumped to her defence. That was sweet. At least somebody had her
back… Her husband was a total spineless wonder.

"Ryan don't worry about it. The feeling is mutual. If you'll excuse me, I'm
going to change so I can get the fuck out of this house." Kendall stood up
and threw her napkin down. She hurried up the stairs to her room. She
really needed to get out.

Lilliana was a little bitch that needed to be taught a lesson. Kendall would
bide her time patiently waiting for the perfect opportunity to make her pay.
She was Kendall's age yet she acted like a fucking child. It was all good,
every dog has its day, Kendall would wait for karma to rear its head.

Chapter 12

"What the hell is wrong with you Lilliana? Can you not be civil for one
second? What would you have me do? Ha? Do you want me to lock her
up? Will you be happy with that?" Blake was losing his patience. He did
not want to side with Kendall because that will put the whole house out of
whack.

"Yes, actually that would be great. At least then you wouldn't be insulting
the memory of dad." Blake stood up and left. He didn't want to say
anything he would regret. This was not how he played this out. Lilliana
was taking it harder than he thought she would. Maybe this wasn't such a
good idea. Blake needed to sort this out fast.

Kendall changed into a blue flowing singlet she took off the heels and put
on ankle boots. Okay so now she looked ordinary Blake shouldn't have a
problem with her appearance. "Kendall may I come in?" It was Ryan, he
was knocking on her door. Kendall opened the door. "Hey, let me give
you a lift. Don't take anything Lilliana says to heart, she's a brat."

"Thanks Ryan, don't worry I'm made of stronger things. Let's go." Ryan
led her out to his Mercedes... Now that’s better.

"Where you heading?"

"Wherever is your local Mall." He smiled and took off. She was so happy
that he was taking her away. She was actually very hurt by Lilliana's
comment earlier. Little bitch had another thing coming. At least today she
would be able to forget this entire situation. She wanted to go home and
just feel like she belonged again. "So is there a reason Blake chose you
to take me?"

"He didn't, that was my decision, he doesn't know, he'll figure it out soon
enough." Kendall didn't know why she was a little worried over that. Blake
would be furious if he knew.

"Aren't you afraid that he'll lose his shit!"

"Blake the calm and collected, yeah not likely."

"Blake the calm and collected? Are we talking about the same person? I
have been with Blake for two weeks and trust me Blake is anything but
calm and collected."

"Interesting..."

***

By the time Kendall had finished shopping she was ready to call it a day.
Ryan picked her up where they had agreed on and she was finally
heading home. His phone kept ringing and he refused to answer. When
he dropped her off at home he asked her what time he wanted to pick her
up and she gave herself a two hour time limit. "Thanks again Ryan."

"Hey you’re my sister in law right?" She smiled and hurried out, eager to
get inside. She had opted to leave all her purchases in the car. When
Kendall walked inside her house the first thing she noticed was her
mother in a bikini by the pool and a Spanish looking boy toy rubbing oil
on her. Kendall drew in a breath and walked out.

"Wow Cathy, you sure can pick em." Her mother looked up at her and
actually had the nerve to scowl.

"Hello honey, you’re back, I see." Please don't be too enthusiastic…

Bitch.

"Whatever mother." Kendall went into her room and slumped onto her
bed. She didn't want to be here, she didn't want to be at Blake's it was all
too much for her. Not even wanting to pack any of her belongings,
Kendall decided to nap. It beat doing things and stuff.

"Kendall there is a very good looking man outside for you. Honey it's too
early into your marriage to be having an affair." Kendall opened her eyes,
she looked at the time and sprang up. Shit.

"Tell him to come in, I'll be down in a minute." Kendall hurried to the toilet
and fixed herself up. She looked like a damn mess and it really didn't
bother her. When she went down to meet up with Ryan she noticed her
mother flirting with him. "Stand down mother, Ryan's so out of your
league." Ryan looked up and laughed.

"You my daughter are rude."

"And you my mother are ridiculous. Let's go Ryan," he said goodbye to

Cathy and they headed back to her doom.

***

Blake was fucking furious with Ryan, how dare he go against his orders.
This whole situation was fast getting out of control. "Blake, please you
need to calm down. What is the big deal baby?"

"Jade the big deal is that Ryan has no right to take my business into his
own hands."

"I think you are taking this marriage thing to heart Blake, is there a
reason that she is worrying you?"

"Honey, it's just too early into this to allow her to do as she pleases. She
needs to understand that things are done my way here, not hers. I'm in
charge, she cannot walk around thinking that she the upper hand. It's a
crucial time to establish this. Jade I need you on my side with this. Please
don't make this any more difficult." He heard Ryan's car pull up and drew
in a breath. Ryan walked in holding the princess's shopping bags.

"Hello there people." Blake was on him in seconds.

"What the fuck do you think you’re doing?" he grabbed Ryan by the
collar.

"Whoa chill bro." Blake lost his head. He threw a punch and it connected
with Ryan's jaw.

"What the fuck Blake?" Finally his wife graced him with her presence.
She had the nerve to physically push Blake away from Ryan. Blake
grabbed her by her neck and pulled her toward him.

"What the hell are you up to? Ha? You want to play?" Kendall was trying
to ease his grip.

"Blake stop it..."

"I told her that you asked me to give her a lift." Ryan was still trying to
protect her. "It's my fault, I’m sorry bro, take it easy." Blake turned to
Ryan and noticed his face in shock, as was everybody else's face. It
dawned on him that his family had never seen him lose control like this
and he had never in all his thirty four years struck his brother. He abruptly
let Kendall go like she was diseased.

"Go to your fucking room." He ordered her so confused with his own
behaviour.

"What? You are a total jack ass Blake. You think I'm going to put up with
your abusive? I don't need your fucking permission to do as I want. I've
managed on my own for twenty five years, so sorry to disappoint you
babe, but I don't need a father, not that you could ever compare to mine."
Blake's eyes were the colour of the night. He looked like he wanted to
throttle her, fuck him, how dare he treat her like this.
"Kendall shut the fuck up and go to your room."

"I'm going to my room, but not because your ordering me it’s because I'm
sick of your fucking faces. Ryan I'm very sorry your brothers an ass."
With that Kendall headed to her room.

Chapter 13

Kendall could not believe his audacity, what the hell gave him the right to
treat her like a child? She needed to show him that he held nothing on
her, even if she left and never returned. That Lilliana bitch was really
getting under her skin, something needed to be done, especially that
Jade, she didn't trust her as far as she could throw her. Think Kendall,
you need to be smart, make Blake realize that it's better off for you to live
somewhere else.

Deciding on having a shower and wearing sweat pants and a singlet,

Kendall was ready for somebody to call her for some dinner, she was
hungry. She wished somebody would just bring food for her to eat alone.

Not having to wait long Blake walked into her room without even
knocking... So much for privacy. He walked in looking sexy as hell, he sat
on the edge of her bed. "Kendall, are you deliberately trying to start
trouble?" His voice was too calm for her liking.

"Yes Blake, I'm deliberately trying to make a bad situation worse. Listen,
this is obviously not working out for us, seriously, your sister is the rudest
bitch I’ve ever come across, and for Jade, well let's just say she has a
hidden agenda. Whatever I don't care, but it's not fair for you to force me
to stay here when you know I'm at a disadvantage. You wouldn't want
your sister to be in my situation." Kendall was desperately trying to make
him see it would be in everybody's interest for her to move out.

"I'll work something out..."

"What are you going to work out, let me return home, it's the only solution
for everybody. I don’t get why you are so hung up on my staying. I
obviously don’t belong here."

"This is your fucking home, you will not be going anywhere!” Jesus Christ
this dude was stubborn.

"It's not my home, it never will be my home, we have done the

requirements of the contract, it did not say anything about my residing
with you."

Blake didn't like where this conversation was going. "Kendall my wife will
not live away from me, I'm sorry, stop with that because it will never
happen." He caressed her cheek, and he saw her eyes soften, fuck she
was beautiful. He leaned in and kissed her softly. Her lips so full and
inviting, she opened her mouth a little and he swept his tongue in her
mouth earning a moan from her, before too long the kiss became heated,
he grabbed the nape of her neck and pressed hard into the kiss, she was
giving as much as him, lick for lick, he was lost to her. When he moved
his hands to touch her breasts she pulled away from his kiss. She
pushed him hard to move him away from her. His dick wasn't happy with
that all.

"Kendall... I need to fucking touch you," he tried kissing her again and
she stopped him short.

"Not a chance as long as you’re sharing a bed with Jade. I have my pride
Blake and to think I'll share my husband with any women you have got
another thing coming. Run along to Jade, I'm sure she's wondering
where you are." Blake ran a hand through his hair, he didn't even know
why he wasn't fucking Jade, he didn't know why he was in Kendall's room
and not with Jade. This was seriously disturbing.
Kendall watched his eyes darken, she could tell he wasn't happy with the
outcome of his visit. There was no way she would allow him access to
her body while that witch was living under the same room. He stood up
clearly not happy.

"Dinner is ready... Please refrain from causing a scene."

"Sure thing captain, I hope you told the rest the same thing, I will not sit
there and allow Lilliana to be rude to me. So make sure your sister plays
nice."

"Fuck sake Kendall, just behave," he left her room. She felt a like she had
just won a small battle with him and was victorious for once.

***

Next few weeks were very long and boring for Kendall, she was just so
over doing nothing. Lilliana kept up her bitchiness and she just ignored
her most of the times. Jade tried to talk to her a few times and Kendall
sensed she was just trying to get some information about her life to use
against Kendall. So Kendall kept her distance from everybody, especially
from Blake. He was always working and she just thought it was in her
best interest to entertain herself.

When sorting out her close Kendall found the card that Logan Whitford
had given her the day of the wedding. She thought to herself that maybe
she should give him a call after all and see what he had to say. It beat
sitting around doing nothing. Dialling the number on the card Kendall
waited for him to reply.

"Logan here…"

"Uh hi Logan this is Kendall Hasting."

"Kendall, I was wondering if you were going to call. Hey how are you?"
She smiled to herself, he remembered her.
"I was thinking maybe we could meet up for a coffee and maybe you can
answer a few of my questions."

"Name the time and the place."

"I'm free now, I can meet you at the mall, there’s a nice little cafe there...
If you can."

"I'll be there in an hour... See you soon." Kendall's heart was racing a
mile a minute. She hoped this was a good idea. Now to tell Blake she
was going out.

***

Blake was in his office getting frustrated with work. He was over dealing
with idiots. He was concentrating on his computer when Kendall waltzed
into his office without bothering to knock. "Yes Kendall, how can I help
you?"

"Actually, I’m here to let you know that I’ll be going out for a while,
soooooo I need a lift."

"And where do you think you’re off to?" She hesitated a little and Blake
wasn't sure why.

"Shopping, and I might meet up with a friend. So about the ride, can
somebody give me a lift?" She was nervous about something. What was
she up to?

"Sure thing, I'll finish off here and give you a lift..."

"On second thoughts I’ll just call a cab, I don't want to bother you, looks
like you’re busy." Blake was certain something was going on.

"No trouble at all. I'll drop you off and you can call whenever you’re ready.
I might even get Ryan to pick you up." Kendall nodded and smiled.
"Okay thankyou I’ll just grab my bag." Oh Kendall, you better not do
anything stupid...

***

After Blake dropped her off at the mall, Kendall was relieved that he left,
for a second Kendall felt like Blake was suspicious of her behaviour. But
he had agreed to do as she wanted and that was lucky for Kendall. When
she saw Logan waiting for her she made her way to him and he stood to
greet her. He kissed her on the cheek and embraced her, Kendall felt a
little strange, because he held her for a while and it felt odd.

"I'm so glad you made it." Logan was very good looking.

"Yes, um I'm not really sure why I'm here to be honest." Kendall was
starting to feel like this was a really bad idea.

"Relax Kendall, I just want to make sure you’re okay, I couldn't believe
what they made you do. I mean why your mother agreed I will never
know."

"It was the only way, we had no choice," he grabbed her hand from
across the table and held her hands between his.

"Kendall if you ever need anything, or to talk or to get away, I'm always
just a phone call away. Your father was a great man, we owe him
everything, so we are in your debt."

Kendall had a quick lunch and really wanted to leave, something about
Logan didn't sit right with her. He was touching her at every opportunity
and he even moved her hair and put it behind her ears. She started to
feel like she was in over her head.

"Thank you for lunch, it was nice seeing you again." Kendall held out her
hand to shake his and he took her hand and pulled her into his arms
hugging her again and kissing her on her cheeks. Kendall pulled away
and quickly turned around walking to get away from him. She retrieved
her phone and dialled Blake she really wanted to get out of here.

Chapter 14

Blake watched the entire thing, she was calling him and he was watching
her. That prick wasn't far behind her. Kendall looked nervous, she was
hurrying away from him. Where had he seen this man before? At his
wedding, he was dancing with Kendall. Fuck the little bitch was having an
affair. Blake saw red, he was furious, his wife was fucking cheating on
him, and he fucking warned her what would happen if she ever did. She
was her father’s daughter through and through.

Blake wanted to tear his fucking head off his face. Blake watched as the
blond man grabbed Kendall again and turned her around kissing her.
Fucking little bitch allowed the kiss, Jade was right about her, she told
him today that she felt Kendall was up to something and that he should
follow her, for the sake of the contract. He should never have of trusted
the little harlot, he would teach her, like his father taught his mother.

Blake returned to the car and waited for her, she had called him and told
him she was ready to be picked up, before that son of a bitch fucking
kissed his wife. That's fine, Blake the calm and collected will do things in
a way where he wouldn't need to create a scene in public. Finally she
came to the car looking all flushed. "Hey Blake, thanks for coming so
quickly."
"Where's your shopping bags?" She looked nervous again.

"Oh I didn't buy anything..." Blake nodded his head. Keep calm Blake…

"That's not like you Kendall, you always buy something, whether or not
you need it."

"Blake I to spend a few nights at my mother’s" He raised an eyebrow.

"No." Kendall huffed and clipped her seat belt. Blake seemed on edge
"What's wrong?" He turned and placed his hand on her face rubbing his
thumb on her cheek.

"Kendall I want to fuck you." What the hell?

"Blake I will not allow you to fuck me as long as you’re sleeping with
Jade... Where is this coming from? You haven't really paid me any
attention in weeks, suddenly you want to fuck me?" Blake put his
forehead onto hers, something was not right, Kendall felt herself shiver.

"Kendall, are you fucking around?" He placed his lips gently on hers and
kissed her lightly, not and open mouth kiss, but a soft and loving kiss. "If I
find out that you have been fucking that blond haired fucker that you had
lunch with I will fucking slit your throat... I will kill him in front of you to
watch and then I will fucking kill you... Do you understand that?" He was
freaking her out. His hand tightened on her face before he pulled away
from her. He stared straight ahead not starting the car or moving.

"I'm not fucking around Blake... Why would you assume that? I called
Logan to meet up with him because at our wedding he said he had some
information I needed to know. I found his card in my luggage and decided
to call him." Blake banged on the steering wheel making Kendall jump
from fright.

"Why was he fucking touching you? Ha? Why did that prick have his
hands all over you? Why then did he fucking kiss you Kendall? Ha?"
Kendall was afraid, Blake looked wild.

"I don't know, I regretted coming as soon as I came. I swear Blake, I felt
like he was putting on a show of sorts. I just wanted to leave. He was
really spooky, every chance he got he was holding my hands and I felt
wrong." Kendall didn't know if he believed her or not. He still looked
furious, she had done nothing wrong except not telling Blake the truth.

"Kendall, if I find out there is something more between you two I will fuck
your life up baby... Mark my words I will fuck your life up... Just like dad
fucked up my mother’s life." Kendall didn't want to aggravate him further.

"I'm not lying Blake, I should have told you earlier I'm sorry." Blake turned
around eyeing her, he nodded his head and drove home. Kendall didn't
say a word until they reached the manor.

"Can I ask you for a favour please?" Blake was taken aback by her
question

"Ask."

"Would you be able to teach me to drive please? That day at the diner, I
nearly killed us both because I didn't know how to drive."

"I'll think about it."

***

Later that night while in his bed, Jade all dressed up for him in a sexy
little number, "Honey, you seem a million miles away... What's wrong
baby?" He caressed her hair

"I'm just tired, work is taking its toll on me. This whole situation is taking
its toll on me."

"Blake, you never touch me anymore, have I done something to upset

you. I'm really trying to get along with Kendall, I know it's not her fault that
she's in this position. I'm trying to make Lilliana see reason and I'm even
making an effort with Ryan."

"Jade it's not you baby, I just don't feel right having you in my bed, I'm
sorry but I'm a devout Catholic, my marriage vows are sacred." Jade
looked at Blake with disbelief, he saw her eyes water and he felt bad.
"Jade, I love you, you know I love you, I just don't know what I'm doing
anymore," he ran a hand through his hair in frustration.

"So suddenly you take your wedding vows seriously? Is that before or
after you had sex with her. If you recall Blake you are cheating on me
with her. Boy she sure got under your skin. Need I remind you she is a
Hasting, how many times have you declared that you wanted to wipe
them off the earth? And what if Lilliana knows your developing feelings
for the enemy?"

"Jade, I know you’re talking from hurt, I'm sorry, I don't know how else to
do this. I have to fulfil my end of the deal, how can I impregnate her if
you’re here, how will you handle that?"

"Answer me one thing Blake, how many times have you slept with her
since you got back from you so called honeymoon?"

"Not once." Jade stood up and changed her clothes.

"So this is it? It's over? Everything we've been through it's gone just like
that?" Her tears were flowing freely and his heart ached for her.

"I'm sorry Jade, I never anticipated for any of this to happen, I swear the
last thing I wanted to do was to hurt you."

"Do you love her Blake? Do you love the princess who thinks you’re
beneath her?" Blake didn't reply, he had no answer for her. "I'll send for
my things tomorrow." With that she took her keys and Blake heard her
car as it took off. What the fuck had he just done? Jade was the only
thing he had that was a certainty in his life. He always believed she was
his soul mate. He just discarded her because he wanted to fuck his wife
like he never wanted anything else. She was the fucking devil tempting
him into doing crazy things. Why was it he craved her so much?

***

Kendall was fresh out of her shower with only her skimpy nighty on and
lacy underpants, she was more than ready to call it a night. Moving the
covers off the bed, she heard her door being opened, Blake with no shirt
on. Fuck he was hot, his eyes filled with lust. "Blake you need to leave,
I've already told you that this is not going to happen." He walked straight
to her and pulled her into his arms kissing her with such force, Kendall
tried pulling away afraid of this reaching the point of no return. "Blake
stop it please."

To her shock her wrapped a hand around her neck and pushed her away,
then he pulled her in for a kiss, he pushed her away again only to pull her
in again. He looked scary, his eyes black, he was so far gone, Kendall
didn't think she could reach him. "What's your name?" Kendall keep it
together, let him do as he wants otherwise he will hurt you. "What's your
fucking name?"

"Kendall... Wyatt." With that he pushed her onto the bed, ripping her
underpants off in a swift motion, he had his mouth on her pussy before
she could even breathe. She moaned at his tongues first contact on her
womanhood. She was freshly shaven so her pussy was ultra sensitive,
he groaned into her cunt, she felt the vibration, he nipped her clit and she
almost screamed. Kendall found herself touching her breast and pinching
her nipples, her arousal was at its peak, she wanted his whole face in her
cunt, not caring if he suffocated or not she forced his head deeper into
her essence, she heard him moan. Kendall was pulling his hair, and
pressing him into her pussy, she was so close to coming. Kendall began
undulating and was ready for the orgasm that rocked her fucking world.

He wouldn't relent until he licked every last bit of her juices. Only when
he seemed satisfied that he had licked her clean did he moved away
from her. Blake stood up, he pulled down his pants and pulled her legs
towards him where he thrust his massive cock inside her forcing a
whimper out of her.

Blake was in another world, if she had begged him to stop now there was
no way on earth he was able to stop. He didn't care if he tore her fucking
apart, he was fucking her for the three weeks he couldn't touch her. She
looked like a fucking porn star touching her breasts and squeezing them
as he was fucking her widely, she was biting her lower lip and his cock
went into a frenzy, he ejaculated so deep within her, his orgasm
prolonged when he felt her pussy contract around his cock milking him
for every last drop, as she climaxed for the second time.

When Blake pulled away and adjusted himself lifting his pants back up
and sat on the bed beside her. Kendall stood on shaky legs and as he
looked up into her eyes she slapped him with all her might. "I told you not
to touch me as long as you’re fucking Jade. You cannot have the best of
both worlds Blake." Kendall turned and went into the bathroom to clean
herself. When she returned he was still sitting in the same position.

She stood with her arms on her hips clearly waiting for an explanation
from him. Blake didn't know why he had needed to touch her so bad, he
leaned forward and pulled his arm around her waist and drew her to him.
He hugged her tightly. She seemed a little shocked by his action. He
looked up at her. "I asked Jade to leave." He saw a wave of uncertainty
wash over her face. It's like she never anticipated for him to actually let
Jade go.

"Why?" Her voice was barely a whisper.

"I don't know... I needed to touch you... I just needed to fucking touch
you." Kendall was in a state of shock. She never thought for a moment
he would let Jade go, they seemed so in love. This just became a whole
different playing field.
"Blake I don't know what to say." He abruptly pushed her away from him
almost causing her to fall.

"You always have something to fucking say! Now you’re fucking

speechless? You are fucking up my entire life and now you’re
speechless?"

"I never told you to leave Jade. Never, it was your choice, why are you
angry with me? I have done nothing."

"You’re the fucking devils daughter!"

"Get out Blake, you have some serious issues to work out."

"Know this, you will do your fucking wifely duties from here on end. All
your privileges are fucking gone. Your sole purpose in life now is to
fucking serve me. I will break you yet." He left her slamming the door with
such force that the windows shattered. What the fuck was that about?
Kendall sensed she was somehow being punished for Blake asking Jade
to leave. What the hell was she going to do now? This guy was so out of
control. So much for Blake the calm and collected… Not!

Chapter 15

The next morning Blake was very edgy. He hadn't slept much and he was
in a sour mood. Everything he thought was solid in his life was not,
everything he believed was real was turning out to be fake. Everything
his father warned him about he was doing the opposite of.


Lilliana was also in a foul mood. "Why isn't Jade joining us for breakfast?"
Blake noticed Kendall look at her plate and play with her food.

"Because Lilly I asked her to leave last night." Lilliana looked like she was
choking.

"You did what?" He saw her hazel eyes almost pop out of her head.
"Jade was your soul mate, she loved you unconditionally, how could you
break her heart? What's gotten into you Blake?"

"Lilliana, let it go." Ryan tried to stop Lilliana's ramblings.

"No Ryan, I will not let it go, ever since this harlot made her way into our
home she has corrupted him. Blake look at yourself, this is not you, why
would you allow a Hasting to ruin your life, she will be your downfall
brother, and you are just going to sit back and allow it to happen?"

Kendall wanted to cry, she didn't want any of this. He was blaming her,
Lilliana was blaming her, her mother blamed her for everything that was
wrong in their lives. All Kendall ever really wanted was somewhere to call
home, with somebody that loved her for her, not for her money or her
looks or what she was able to help them with. Kendall lived a miserable
life, party after party, getting drunk, getting high and doing it all again the
next week. She did not want to break up this family, despite everything,
she had developed feelings for Blake and she adored Ryan. Even that
bitch Lilliana deserved to keep her family, if they were happy before,
Kendall felt like she single handed caused all this chaos, but for once in
her life it wasn't intended.

"Lilly, I've already told you Kendall is a Wyatt now. She is my wife, I'm not
asking you to like her or be her friend but I demand a little respect, as my
wife you will treat her as such. This is getting repetitive, you need to
understand that things don't always turn out like you planned. As for
Jade, that is none of your business, I am an adult and I will make
whatever decisions necessary. So enough of this spoilt girl tantrum Lilly,
it's getting old."

Kendall heard Lilliana gasp, she obviously never had Blake talk to her
like that. Kendall looked up and saw Ryan's face filled with admiration for
his big brother. Kendall was keeping out of this one, she refused to get
involved. To be honest with herself, Kendall still could not believe he
asked Jade to leave. But she knew she was still on his naughty list, so
she would be well behaved until he cooled down.

"Blake why are you doing this?" Lilliana's changed her tactics, Kendall
could her the miss innocent act in her voice. "Blake, I miss dad so much,
and when you act like this I don't know you anymore." Oh brother, was
Blake really going to fall for this.

"Lilly dad's gone, I am not him, I am going to do things my way for a

change, so get used to it."

***

Kendall saw Ryan sit outside on the beautiful outdoor setting, Their entire
back yard was professionally designed and it looked like serene Chinese
garden. A beautiful centre water fall, with a modern twist that had water
fall down a mosaic wall. "Hey Ryan, can I join you?" Ryan looked up and
smiled.

"Of course you can... It is after all your home too." Kendall smiled and
took a seat beside him.

"I'm sorry for causing all of this, I honestly didn't intend for this to
happen." Ryan looked at her seriously.

"Kendall you have nothing to be sorry about, its about time Blake stops
taking shit from Lilly and Jade, he always felt like he couldn't upset either
of them. If anything you have done us a favour."

"I'm not so good with heart to hearts but I must tell you that nobody ever
accepted me like you have. Why is it that you don't hate me as much as
Blake and Lilliana?" It took Ryan a while before he answered.

"My mother really loved your dad, when nobody was home I would sit
with her and she would explain to me why she did what she did. My
father was always having affairs, always somebody, mum was lonely, she
met your father at a charity ball and he swept her off her feet. He listened
to her, they became friends and would meet up every so often. One day
dad was so drunk he beat mum up until she was black and blue, I stood
in his way and also received a beating. Mum ran away that night, after
dad passed out, she fled and Augustus took her in. Only problem was
Augustus was married and had a child he loved beyond reason.
Apparently your mother and father were not on great terms and he fell in
love with mum. Long story short, they lived they loved but mum wanted
her children and Augustus wanted his daughter. They decided to leave it
as that and mum returned home. Father never forgave her, so he
punished her mercilessly, we had to endure it all. She refused to say a
bad word about Augustus and this just infuriated my father. Dad tried to
poison our minds, Blake copped it the worst, dad would hammer it in his
head that our mother was a whore and she disgraced the Wyatt name.
Lilliana was the apple in dad’s eyes. As long as she was getting
everything she wanted she couldn't care less about our mother. I hated
dad for what he did to mum, I'm pretty sure he killed her, Blake just kept
to himself."

Kendall felt a lump in her throat. She had never heard this side of the
story. She felt so bad for Ryan, and for Blake. No wonder he hated her
family, his father was a fucking monster. "Thanks Ryan, I know you didn't
have to tell me that." He just smiled at her, but his eyes looked so sad. "If
it makes you feel any better my mother was always competing with me
for boys. I know it's ridiculous but it's true, you saw her the day you
picked me up from your place. She was all over you because she
assumed you were my lover." Ryan laughed.

"So why do you call her Cathy?"

"To piss her off, she was never a mother to me, always so preoccupied
with herself, I was a burden for my mother, she couldn't wait for me to
leave. It's all good. She's always been like that so I'm used to it. I don't let
her bother me anymore."

***

Blake walked outside to look for Ryan, he saw Kendall and Ryan having
a conversation. He missed his brother, he hadn't really been much of a
good brother to him, there was a four year gap between them but Ryan
always respected Blake. "Hey Bro, take a seat." Blake sat on a chair
beside Kendall. "Want a beer?" Ryan offered

"No, I'm good. Why are drinking beer anyway." Ryan took a gulp and
finished his bottle.

"Not drinking... See I'm done." Blake shook his head.

"Where's Lilly?" he asked Ryan

"Probably coming up with a plan to poison your bride.... Jokes relax bro."
Blake gave Ryan a enough of your shit stare. "She's going to see Jade,
wants to help her mend he heart, she also is taking Jade's things back to
her." Blake ran a hand over his goatee "You did the right think Blake, Lilly
needs to stop playing the missing dad card."

"I know Ryan it's just she was dad's little girl and he would give her the
world if he could."

"Yes, he made her into a monster like the monster he was. Blake let's not
get into this, I don't want you to deck me again." Although Ryan was
teasing Blake felt bad for hurting his brother

"Yeah about that..."

"Don't worry about it, anyway people if you'll excuse me I'm off to bed,
me thinks I've had one too many." Ryan left Blake alone with his bride.

"He looks up to you, it's like you can do no wrong in his eyes." Blake
looked into Kendall's "He has a heart of gold that one." Blake nodded.
Kendall felt a little awkward sitting alone with Blake, it felt a little like when
they were at the cottage.

"Kendall, let's go upstairs." All Blake wanted to do was fuck his wife. She
looked so beautiful wearing white shorts and a yellow singlet. Her hair in
a ponytail and no make-up at all. Her big brown eyes looked so much
more vulnerable when she had no make-up on. He watched her bite her
lip.

"Ask me nicely," he couldn't help it he smiled.

"Kendall can we please go upstairs?" Blake could see the cheekiness in

her eyes.

"See Blake that wasn't so hard now was it?" This time he laughed, he
grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder and headed up to her room.
Once inside he tossed her onto her bed and ordered her to strip. She
lifted her singlet and he almost came in his pants when he realized she
had no bra on, she unzipped her shorts and kicked them off, and her
thong followed. Blake took off his top and quickly discarded his pants
before laying atop her, he kept his weight off her not wanting to crush
her.

"Fuck you are beautiful," he was caressing her body with long lazy
strokes. He moved beside her and continued to feel her body, he loved
every bit of her body, it was flawless, all tanned and all woman. Kendall
stared into his eyes and Blake could her eyes soften, "Kiss me Kendall."
She angled her head and kissed him. He groaned into her mouth loving
the taste of her, she held nothing back, Kendall used her tongue to suck
his, she bit his lower lip, Blake didn't know how much more he could take,
he was going to cum in his pants.

Kendall was so lost in how erotic the kiss was, she loved the way his
body reacted to hers, wanting to take control Kendal turned and was on
top of Blake, he groaned aloud. She sat up and straddled him allowing
his massive cock to impale her. She moaned as he stretched her body to
its limit. After adjusting to his size Kendall started to work him into a
frenzy, she touched her breasts as she withered atop him. Blake was
losing control, she could sense it, he started dictating the pace and she
happily allowed him to, he lifted her up and slammed her back down onto
his cock, her body was about to explode. Blake started playing with her
clit all the while fucking her and Kendall could take no more, pleasure
surged through her body, she let go and her orgasm sent her into another
world.

Blake could hold off no longer, he ejaculated deep inside her and her
cunt milked his cock for every last drop. When he was sated he looked at
her, she was sex itself. Her face all flushed and her eyes with the sleepy
look, her lips pouted and sweat dripping down the middle of her luscious
breast. She rolled off him and hurried into the bathroom. After about five
minutes she returned wearing a bathrobe. She sat beside him, "This is
really awkward ay?" She asked him

"You could say that." He wrapped an arm around her waist and drew her
near him. "Or you could just pretend we are a happily married couple
who just enjoyed mind blowing sex."

"Or maybe you could take me out on a date tonight?" Blake looked down
at her and she was holding her breath waiting for an answer.

"Not worried if people see you with me? I am a Wyatt after all." Kendall
rolled her eyes.

"Yes you’re a Wyatt, how can I forget, you keep reminding me, as long as
you don't care being seen with a Hasting?"

"You’re not a Hasting Kendall, stop with that."

"Blake just because you say I'm not a Hasting doesn't mean it’s true, I am
a Hasting and always will be a Hasting, yes I carry your name now but it
does not mean I would denounce what I am by blood."

"For fucks sake Kendall, just accept it, you belong to me know, body ,
soul and name. I'll not continue this repetitive discussion anymore. Deal
with it!" Blake moved away from her and put his clothes back on. "No use
fucking denying it." He walked out leaving her wondering what the hell
just happened. Loser much? He always had to ruin everything.

Chapter 16

Blake didn't know why he was insulted when Kendall refused to

acknowledge herself as a Wyatt, he understood that there was bad blood
between them, but he also was almost certain that she had begun to care
for him. He obviously was taken by her, she fulfilled a sexual need within
him that nobody else had been able to achieve, not even Jade. Was he in
love with the idea that he had control of a Hasting? He didn't know what
the answer was and he was so confused by her attitude. Maybe she was
just playing him, if so this wouldn't end up pretty, of that he was sure.

Blake decided to play her game, he would take her out tonight, maybe he
should see where things would take them, who knows what was going to
happen, when it came to Kendall, he had no idea what the night would
bring. He would arrange a dinner and maybe a walk on the beach, why
not bring out the big guns, maybe even spend the night at a romantic
hotel. Let's see if she could keep up the pretence, give her enough rope
and she'll hang herself.

Kendall did not think for a second that he would still take her out on a
date. She hated to admit it but she was actually a little excited. Okay she
was a lot excited, she was looking through her clothes deciding what to
wear, she was acting like a school girl going out to her first date, it was
ridiculous. Kendall didn't want to piss him off so she wanted to dress
accordingly and not draw too much attention.

After trying on numerous outfits Kendall opted to wear a white dress

which looked like it came out of the seventy's era, it was a pretty little
number and was loose on the top until it reached her hips where it
tightened and looked like a tight mini skirt. The top covered each breast
individually showing cleavage, all the way down the centre of her dress it
was opened showing her tanned skin, it came together just above the
hip. Kendall thought it might be a little too much for Mr Caveman, but she
was determined to look her best, he shouldn't really have a problem with
it, it was only cleavage after all, and the fact that all her other outfits were
a lot more revealing.

Deciding on wearing her hair down, she applied make up going heavy on
the eyes and added some gloss. Putting on heels and grabbing her
clutch, Kendall made her way down to her husband. When she spied him
she almost drooled. He was a fucking stud and she couldn't get enough
of looking at him. The problem was when he saw her, for some reason
she felt very nervous about his reaction to her appearance. Blake's eyes
turned almost black, Kendall noticed him clenching his jaw and felt a little
worried. "You like?" she asked hating the silence

"A fucking blind man would like... Do you have to dress like a..."

"Like what? A whore? Listen Blake you’re always going on and on about
me accepting your name and what not, so why won't you lead by
example and accept me the way I am? This is me Blake and believe it or
not, I'm toning it down a lot for you, so cut me some slack and let me be
me, at least for tonight." Blake was looking at his bride, he would let her
be for tonight, tonight all bets were off and anything goes.

“Fair enough Kendall, we'll do things your way for tonight." She graced
him with the sexiest smile in the world, he pulled out his arm to her and
she walked to him looking every bit of the princess she was known to be.
"Don't say I don't do anything for you." Kendall rolled her eyes at his
remark, he saw her try and hide her smile. Here goes nothing.

***

Kendall was very impressed, he decided to take her to the casino, very
nice restaurant with French cuisine. She loved the high life, it was what
she was about, but for some strange reason, the high life was a bit of a
letdown tonight. She didn't care that everybody was treating her like
royalty, all she wanted to do was sit alone with Blake without the craze
that surrounded her every she went. Kendall was a celebrity of sorts, she
often appeared in magazines dating one star or the next. Her father was
very well known and had many connections. She was always with
celebrities, as fake as it was they were her only friends. They would party
together and her face and name became known and she suddenly
became important.

Any interviews her father ever did, he would talk about his daughter the
princess and thus the name stuck. Kendall Hasting the Princess daughter
of Augustus Hasting and sole heir to the Hasting fortune... All the articles
started out the same. She learnt to live with it and it seemed more than
normal to her. She actually got more media attention than some of her
celebrity friends. Money and connections always made people seem
important. Until recently Kendall believed that being known and famous
was important. Her father owning many hotels along with Thomas Wyatt
and of course Michael Lucius. They were a force to be reckoned with,
however, Thomas and Michael were silent partners where as Augustus
was loud and proud, as was his daughter. Kendall's mother Cathy loved
the spot light, she lived for the cameras and for interviews, she always
spoke of her relationship with her daughter like they were more like
sisters... Yeah right. Kendall avoided interviews, she hated them, and she
found that the less you told them about yourself the more they seemed
interested, so she smiled for the cameras, posing on numerous
occasions and was on her way.

Tonight seemed different, Kendall felt very fake, she felt like a fraud, and
she couldn't distinguish if it was from pretending to play nice with Blake
or because she didn't want anybody else to take notice of her. For some
reason, Kendall wanted to hide away from the world, she suddenly
regretted wearing her choice of clothing and she regretted asking Blake
to take her out.

"Something wrong Kendall? You have barely touched your food." Blake
looked a little concerned.
"I'm good, it's just... It's just I think people are photographing us." Blake
looked around and spied the culprits.

"Would you like me to have a word with management? If your

uncomfortable we could call it a night and head upstairs, I've booked us a
room." He watched as her eyes lit up.

"Really?" she seemed genuinely shocked

"Really."

"Bit sure of yourself." He laughed at her comment.

"Well my dear, your dressed like a fucking wet dream and you think I can
wait to take you home to devour you? No chance, the room is all your
fault." he winked at her.

"Well I should dress like this more often then." Blake didn't like that
comment, although it was just a joke her wasn't too keen on the idea.

"Like hell you are." She bit her lip and Blake sensed that she didn't like
the way the conversation was heading. "I'm sorry, let's please enjoy the
evening." Kendall nodded her head but he could see she wasn't too
happy.

"Blake why is it so important to you that I dress a certain way? Does it

really matter?" Kendall wanted to know his way of thinking, why was he
so obsessed with the way she portrayed herself?

"Because, because Kendall, you now represent me, everything you do is

a reflection of me. I don't want every fucker around wanting to fuck my
wife."

"Gee's most guys would love to have a trophy wife."

"Yeah well I'm not most guys. The last thing I wanted was a trophy wife, I
would rather have her intelligent and able to hold a conversation, not a
spoilt brat who is good for nothing but getting attention. I can't change the
way I am Kendall, you will have to deal with it. Again the only real option
you have is acceptance, and I assume the sooner you accept my
conditions the better for all of us."

"So your implying that I need to change everything about myself and you
stay as you are? What changes will you make?"

"I fucking gave up Jade for you so don't you fucking start about what I will
do." Blake was suddenly furious. His whole face changed and he looked
hard and angry. He called over the waiter and threw his credit card to
him, obviously it was go time.

***

Once in the huge penthouse above the casino, Blake unbuttoned his shirt
and grabbed filled himself a scotch. Kendall just walked behind him like a
lost fucking puppy. Never had Kendall ever followed anybody, she was
the one to determine where they would go and she would be the one
getting followed. Big shot stars followed her and here she was following
Blake Wyatt a no name like he was her god. When did things get so
messed up with her?

"You know what Blake? I am so over you and your I'm your god attitude.
Fuck you, I don't need this shit, I can fucking get any man I want, at any
time I want so don't think for a second I'm going to put up with your crap
for much longer." She moved to exit the room and he was suddenly on
her. He pressed her body hard onto the door hurting her.

"What was that Kendall? You can get any man you want?" He fisted her
hair and slammed her head hard onto the door. "You can fuck whoever
you want right? Is that what you’re implying?" Again he slammed her
head, she cried out, a little from the pain and a lot from fear.

"Blake... Please you’re hurting me," he roughly turned her around.

"You playing me Kendall? You fucking playing me?" She tried to shake
her head but he was grabbing her jaw really hard.

"No I'm not playing you... Stop... Please your scaring me." She watched
his jaw clench and she held her breath. He let her go and walked back to
his drink.

"You can't treat me like this Blake, I won't allow you to treat me like this. If
you want Jade, by all means return to her, I will not be a victim of abuse."
He looked at her and before she could register what he was going to do
he slammed his glass of scotch on the door right near her head. Kendall
froze, but only for a second, she turned and tried to leave the room, she
was going to run for her life, this guy was way too unstable. Again he
must have anticipated the move because he grabbed her arm and pulled
her with him. He all but threw her onto the lounge.

"Don't you fucking move or talk." Blake saw the fear in her eyes and his
dick throbbed. He wanted her pain, he wanted her to submit to his will,
she would be his wife and love and obey him if it was the last thing she
did. She sat up and lifted her head, still so fucking proud, not aware of
what he was doing he slapped her hard across her cheek with the back
of his hand. Her facing landing on the lounge. "I said don't fucking move."
Blake was lost, he wanted his release, he wanted to fuck her, and hurt
her, he wanted everything she was. He walked away, trying to calm
himself down. What the fuck had she done to him? Blake Wyatt was the
calm and collected, the peace maker, not the abusive sexually disturbed
monster that she had created. He never liked violence, in any shape or
form, yet why was his cock about to explode if he didn't fuck his victim
soon? "Get up Kendall." His voice dead calm.

Kendall was so afraid of him, she hesitated for only a second before she
did as he wanted. "Strip." Kendall felt like somebody had thrown ice cold
water on her, she felt her whole body shiver. "Strip Kendall, it's not like
you’re wearing anything anyway right?"

"Blake, I'm begging you to stop this. Please, I'm sorry I said what I did, I
didn't mean it. Please you’re really scaring me." She was crying openly
now, like really sobbing, she couldn't hide her fear. He was ferocious and
she didn't know how to handle him. He walked up to her and wiped her
tears. She flinched at his touch and this seemed to aggravate him anew.
He slapped her again on the same cheek, this time he stopped her fall.
He had his arm around her.

Blake closed his eyes he was trying desperately to regain some

composure. He took a few deep breathes. "Kendall get in the bed. Not a
word, strip and get in the bed." He must have really scared her because
she didn't hesitate at all. In no time at all she was stripped of all clothes
and in the bed, she covered herself looking so scared. Blake took off his
remaining clothes and moved in beside her. He wrapped and arm around
her waist and dragged her to him, holding her tightly. He kissed her head.
"I'm sorry baby... I fucked up I know…"

Kendall continued to cry, he was holding her like she meant something to
him, but clearly it was as fake as her whole life was. Nobody could
physically hurt you and care for you, she wasn't one of those women who
believed their abuser because they loved them. Kendall would not roll
over and play the victim. She would fight him, but not tonight, tonight she
was very afraid and confused and needed to sort out a plan. Tonight she
would play the victim and pretend he cared for her...

Chapter 17

When Kendall awoke she found herself alone in the bed. Where was
Blake? Hoping his mood was nothing like the night before Kendall moved
off the bed, she was absolutely naked, great, looking for something to put
on she found his shirt lying around and quickly put it on. Hearing the
water on in the bathroom, Kendall realized he was in the shower. His shirt
smelt like him and Kendall found herself hugging the shirt around her.
What the hell was wrong with her? He was a jackass and she was
savouring his smell.

When Blake walked out of the bathroom he saw Kendall dressed in his
black shirt from the night before and his dick demanded attention. She
was a fucking sight, her hair all dishevelled and her big brown morning
eyes made her look like she was begging to be fucked. "Good morning."

"Good morning, if you have finished with the shower I kinda need to use
the toilet." He smiled at her lack of class.

"All yours." He watched her saunter off to use the bathroom, fuck me, he
thought, this woman was the sexiest piece of work he had ever laid eyes
on. Just thinking about it made Blake a little edgy, if he thought that about
her, so must most men that pass her... Keep calm Blake, stop jumping
the gun.

Kendall washed here face and brushed her teeth, she didn't even bother
to tame her hair. When she left the bathroom she spied Blake sitting on
the lounge with just that towel wrapped around him. Kendall drew in a
breath, she loved the way his body was so ripped and all man. He was
cleanly shaven and his goatee freshly trimmed. Yes he was fucking hot,
she never deluded herself into thinking otherwise.

"Kendall come here." Kendall really hoped he wasn't going to try and to
touch her in anyway. She was still really upset with him from his
behaviour last night. She reluctantly approached him and sat beside him
on the couch.

"Are you going to strike me again?"

"I'm sorry... I don't know what came over me..."

"Yeah well that's not good enough, you hurt me, and all because you
can't handle what I say." Blake rubbed a hand over his mouth.

"Kendall, it's just that I'm finding it very hard to be with you, and I can't
seem to stay away."
"Hard to be with me? Are you serious? I'm not forcing you to stay with
me, I don't want anybody who obviously doesn't want me. I'm sorry I'm
such a burden to you. If you recall I was just as much forced into this as
you were. Go back to Jade, at least with her you never lost your shit. I'm
telling you this for the last time Blake, I will not put up with abuse. I get
you hate what I am and where I come from, but you mistreating me is
something I just won't put up with."

"Back to Jade? You ruined Jade for me Kendall, your all I can fucking
think about. I can't seem to shake you out of my mind. It's a fucked up
deal, I'm sorry Kendall, I know I'm all over the place and trust me I'm
more confused than ever. Give me a chance to fix everything. Please just
give me a chance to do things right." She stared at him, wanting more
than anything to be able to have a normal relationship with him. She had
never really lusted after another like she did with him.

"Blake, I will give this a go, but I'm telling you now that this is your last
and only chance. Don't think for one second I will put up with any more
abuse." He cupped her face and kissed her gently.

"You make me go crazy baby, I can't seem to stop thinking about you.
Everything I do your on my mind." He kissed her again a little more
urgently this time. Grabbing the nape of her neck he pressed her to him.
He kissed her unabashedly, he hurt her and he loved it. She moaned into
his mouth and his dick was crying for attention. He grabbed her and sat
her on his lap removing his towel. He impaled her onto his cock and
groaned with pleasure. He unbuttoned the shirt she wore. She was a
fucking beautiful. He loved her body and the way her breast stood so
proudly, he sucked one nipple and bit it causing it to erect, he did the
same to the other nipple. She lifted her head back as her hips undulating
atop him.

Kendall was lost to the pleasure, he started touching and rubbing her clit
and she was losing her battle to wait for him to orgasm. She let herself go
and came with such force she cried out. She felt his cock lengthen even
more inside her just before he lifted his head back and roared into his
climax.

They were breathing heavy and fast. Kendall moved off him and once
again left him to clean herself. When she returned he was dressed in his
pants. "So what now?" She asked him buttoning up.

"I have no idea baby, I guess we try taking it one day at a time. I mean
what else can we do?"

"Okay first things first, I need some clothes. I'm kinda only left with last
nights outfit."

"That's gonna have to do, We'll stop by a mall and grab you something
on the way home."

" I wore it last nigh…" She sounded appalled at the notion of wearing the
outfit twice.

"For like two hours... It'll be fine."

"Okay but don't say I didn't warn you.." He looked really confused by her
comment.

***

"I warned you Blake, The media is harsh, now they are going to make
comments about me being in the same outfit the morning after, they will
come up with a million different scenarios." She knew what the headlines
would read, and he would just have to deal with it.

"Why do they fucking care?" He asked while driving.

"Listen I'm going to let you know from now they will make story's up about
me having an affair, especially when they realize I'm married. So buckle
up and get ready for the ride."

"I don't like this Kendall. It's like we have to always be on our guard. I
suppose if you ever attempt to have an affair I will know."

"Hey you can't believe anything you read. I'm telling you Blake they are
brutal. Please trust me on this one."

"Relax they probably won't even care a week from now."

***

That night Blake decided to spend the night in Kendall's room, he asked
her to move into his room and she graciously declined saying she
wouldn't take somebody else's place, that if he wanted to spend the night
with her he would have to stay in her room. Always so proud, so instead
of making an issue out of it he gave in and spend the night in her room.
Lilliana was appalled. "You have lost your marbles Blake, what is she
doing to you?"

"Lilly let it go, this is the way it's going to be. Kendall is my wife, its fate
working… Its just fate working it's magic. Please stop with the dramas."

"Dramas are you serious? I'm leaving Blake, I will move out if she stays. "

"Lilly you are not moving out."

"Wanna make a bet? Listen Blake, its her or me, your choice?" Fucking
Lilly always making things so complicated. "I will move in with Jade, she
already agreed. So brother you let me know, you have until tomorrow
morning to tell me of your decision."

Now what the hell was he going to do?

Chapter 18

Kendall heard the whole conversation that Lilliana and her brother had. It
would be interesting what his decision would be. That little bitch giving
him ultimatums. Well Kendall would know in the morning if he was to
keep her or his sister. Laying in her bed dressed only in satin frilly shorts
and a singlet, Kendall was slowly drifting off to sleep, when she heard
Blake enter her room and turn on the lights, she winced hating the lights
."Turn em off." Of course he did no such thing. He moved to sit beside
her on the bed.

"Kendall, I have a situation..." Oh my god, Kendall thought, he was really

going to send her away because of Lilliana. "The thing is that Lilliana is
finding it very hard to cope with you and I being together. I honestly don't
know how much more I can take. She thinks I'm betraying my father by
wanting to be with you." Kendall sat up and looked at him wide eyed.

"Yeah well you can tell her that I'm also betraying my father by being with
you, tell her to get over it."

" I did, it's just that she has threatened to move out if you are to remain
here..."

"Is that a bad thing? Listen Blake, I will be more than happy to move out,
seriously I don't want to cause any more trouble for anybody, and to be
quite honest, I'm over the fighting, I'm over the hurt, and I'm over being
hated for something I had absolutely no control over. I will understand if
you want or need me to go." He ran a hand through his hair, Blake
between a fucking rock and a hard place.

"I'm going to send her away. I have spoken to Ryan and he believes it's in
everybody's best interest if she leaves. It's time for her to grow up. I'm
only asking you not to gloat, or make any comments if you should see
her when I've told her of my decision."

"You would think I’d stoop that low Blake?" Kendall didn't know what to
think of this whole circumstance, he chose her over Lilliana and that in
itself was a shock to her system, but would never would she hurt Lilliana
deliberately while she was down, no way, it wasn't in her nature to kick
people while they were down. She actually felt a little sad for Lilliana. This
was not how she wanted things to unravel. She never had any siblings
and always prayed for some, so the last thing she wanted to do was
break up this family.

"Kendall, you are sometimes irrational and childish, I don't fucking know
anymore, I feel like the biggest fucking traitor in the world."

"Blake try reasoning with Lilliana, tell her I'm more than happy to call a
truce, I swear, try and make her stay and she'll have no more trouble with
me. If you would like I would tell her myself." Blake looked deep into his
wife's eyes and was awed by how much she had changed while being
with him. She seemed to have a soft side deep down somewhere, it
wasn't all about her looks and material things after all, maybe that was
just a front.

"Tomorrow morning we'll discuss this with Lilly, for now I need to fucking
hold you baby because I feel like I’m fucking drowning and nothing is
making sense to me anymore." Kendall moved until she was close to him
and wrapped her arms around him tight. Blake buried his head onto her
chest. She held him close, it was almost like she was his life line at that
particular moment. She took his hand and led him into the bed where
they slept entwined in each other's arms for the entire night.

***

It was show time and Blake was not looking forward to the confrontation
at all. He was really nervous and had no idea how this was going to play
out. He had already spoken to Ryan and asked him not to interfere,
Kendall was ready to do her part, he didn't influence her one way or
another, if she was going to do this then it was her choice to make.
Lilliana was already on the breakfast table when they all arrived. "Good
morning." Kendall said aloud.

"Morning Kendall, How was your sleep?"

"It was okay," she answered Ryan. It was very awkward, Blake could feel
the tension.

"So big brother have you come to a decision?" Blake looked at his sister
and his heart hurt that he was going to hurt her.

"Lilly, its simple enough, Kendall is to remain here as my wife, I'm sorry
this upsets you. I do not want you to leave but I will not stop you. I'm
hoping you and Kendall will call a truce and try to live under the same
roof without too much problems." Lilliana's eyes went wild. Kendall
almost backed away from her.

"You chose that whore over me?" She was angry, almost reminded
Kendall of cartoons where steam would come out of the ears.

"For one thing Lilly, Kendall is not a whore, I was her first."

"You’re making a big mistake Blake, she is going to take everything from
you, mark my words she's formed a plan to strip you bare. If she takes
what's ours then god help me Blake I will never forgive you." Kendall
remained quiet, she didn't want to get involved at this point, it was way
too heated. But she did want to talk to Lilliana alone.

"Lilly calm down." Blake was trying hard to keep his cool.

"Are you happy Princess Kendall? Is this what you want to break us up?"

"Ryan, Blake would you mind leaving us for a minute?" Both boys looked
at Kendall suspiciously and left. When they were out of ear range,
Kendall started. "What's this really about Lilliana? You don't know me well
enough to hate me that much. What are you afraid of? Do you think I will
seriously try and sabotage your fortune? Honey I have enough money to
fucking buy an island if I wanted to. So do tell what is the problem if Blake
and I remain together?"

"You are a whore."

"Your brother has told you openly, to my humiliation that I was a fucking
virgin, so I am not a whore... What else have you got?"

"You sent Jade away so you can worm your way into our family.”

"No Blake sent Jade away, I told Blake that I wouldn't sleep with him as
long as he was sharing a bed with another woman, and I am in your
family whether or not Jade was around. You need to do better than that.
Lilliana, why for the sake of your brothers who love you very much can
we not try and work out our differences?"

"You’re trying to win me over, it's not going to work."

"Win you over for what? Lilliana I'm willing to make the effort here, I have
nothing to lose or gain if you leave. Again for the sake of your brothers
let's give this a chance."

"No, I will go and live with Jade, at least there I come first." Kendall felt a
little hurt at Lilliana's rejection.

"If it's what you want, a piece of advice, Jade had a hidden agenda
honey, don't be too surprised when your only part of some elaborate plan.
But be assured your brothers will never turn their backs on you."

"Don't try and play nice now princess, you haven't won yet." Kendall
watched her walk away. Won what? You idiot girl! For some reason her
moving in with Jade didn't sit well with Kendall, she was almost certain
Jade was up to something, there was something in her eyes that Kendall
didn't like.

***

Blake watched as his sister drove off, he wasn't sure how to feel. Ryan
also looked a little sad. "What have I done Ryan?"

"It needed to be done, she'll come back." Blake hoped that Ryan was
right. Lilly needed to know that throwing a tantrum wouldn't always result
in her getting her way, he had allowed her too many privileges in life,
always feeling bad for her. She forever reminded him that if their father
were still alive he would have given her the world. That might be true, but
for now the world needed to teach her a lesson.

Kendall felt lost, everybody was gloomy and she felt so out of place. Not
knowing what she should be doing she decided to go to her mother’s for
a visit. Not that her mother would be overly enthusiastic about seeing her,
at least she would give the boys some time alone.

After asking Blake if it was okay, and Ryan offering her a lift, Kendall
headed back to her home. Thanking Ryan she went inside and found her
mother with another man. "Hello mother." Getting off this guy’s lap, Cathy
quickly adjusted her mini dress.

"Kendall darling, you really do need to call, it's rude to show up

unannounced." Was she for fucking real?

"You seem to forget Cathy, this is my goddamn house. You’re lucky I

don't throw you out."

"Hey I'm Brett."

"I couldn't care less who you are, so if you don't mind can you kindly get
out of my house Brett?" He looked shocked. Fuck he couldn't be much
older than her.

"Kendall don't be rude," her mother’s voice went high pitched when she
was angry.

"I'm serious Cathy, get him the hell out of here. If you want to sleep
around then you can do it away from my house. This is where my father
lived. I will no longer idly sit by while you insult his memory. If you’re not
happy with this than you can leave too. I've had enough of you and your
shit." Cathy stared at Kendall with what Kendall assumed was absolute
detest. She didn't care, enough was enough and Cathy was a free
loading bitch.
"I'm sorry Brett, maybe you should leave, my daughter here seems to be
going through some things." Brett thankfully left without too much
trouble.

"How dare you!" Yelled Cathy. "How dare you talk to me like that!"

"Cathy, I am not going to put up with your crap any longer. Read dad's
will, everything is mine, all of it, he knew what you were like from the
beginning, so do not tempt me to do something you will regret." Kendall
had enough, she turned and walked upstairs to her room. Why did
everything have to be so complicated?

Chapter 19

Kendall missed her father terribly, walking in to his office she sat onto his
chair. He always looked so powerful in his office like he owned the entire
world. How many times had Kendall sat on his lap when she was
younger. She would always play with his pens and mess up his table and
he never yelled at her. No her father was everything to her, she loved him
so much and missed him even more.

Touching everything, trying to feel him, it was of no use, he was gone.

Kendall opened up his draw and rummaged through the papers. She
found envelopes that were addressed to her, and to Blake. This was
strange, Kendall got a sense that she was being watched, her goose
bumps on her arms stood out and Kendall shivered. She opened the
letter addressed to her

My dear Princess... My Kendall

I am writing this to you in hopes that you will understand why I have done
what I did. I love you baby girl and I'm sorry if my decision has hurt you in
any way. Knowing I was going to die, Michael and myself kept it a secret,
it must have come as a total shock to you, and for that again I'm sorry. I
needed you to be safe and the only way I could guarantee your safety, if
Michael were to die, was to have you wed to Blake Wyatt.

Despite what you might have heard about him, I know he will look out for
you. If you two are somehow connected then he could never hurt you. My
fortune and His fortune are at stake if anything should happen to the pact
that Michael and I drew up. Thomas Wyatt, was a sadist, I'm glad it's
Blake that we need to deal with and not his father.

Be assured baby, I know Blake is a good man, I met him many times,
although he blamed me for his mother’s misfortune he was always very
polite and professional with me. He reminded me a lot of his mother
Bella, she was my true love, what I felt for her I have never felt for
another woman. She had a hard life with Thomas, he hurt her
mercilessly, and always threatened to take her kids away from her. It was
never my intention to ruin her life, she should have stayed with me and
never returned to Thomas, alas her kids were far too important for her to
give up.

Bella loved her children, all of them, she adored Blake, she feared for
Blake, his father tried moulding him into becoming just like he was. Bella
thought he would succeed. As for Ryan, he was his mother’s hero, he
often got beaten up trying to protect his mother. She would often say that
he was her sanity. And of course there was Lilliana, who her mother tried
to reach out to, but Lilliana's loyalty remained with her father.

I'm telling you this so you can understand that it was not Bella's fault if
Blake turned out like his father. You can make it work Kendall, if he has
any part of Bella in him then he has a heart of gold. I wish I could turn
back time and fix everything. But I can't and when you read this I will be
dead.

Money is not everything Kendall, when you die you die alone, with no
pockets to take your money with. You need to learn to live without money,
so if ever your mother’s greedy hands end up on your inheritance you will
not be shocked at life. I believe that you and Blake are meant for each
other, it's the only way to end this ongoing feud.

I love you Kendall, and I pray you forgive me, I just needed to be sure
that you would be protected.

Love Always your Father

Augustus Hasting

Kendall stared at the note, she hadn't even realized she was crying. It
was true he loved Bella Wyatt. Wow, this was all too much. And what of
the note that was addressed to Blake, she wanted to open it but knew
she shouldn't. Her father had set the whole thing up with Michael, all of it,
even the cottage. Trying to protect her from her own mother, trying to
protect her from the Wyatt's by marrying her to a Wyatt. Augustus
Hasting was a lot of things, but he was a very smart business man at the
end of the day. This was like just another business deal for him, he
wanted to make sure that there would be no lose ends when it came to
his fortune, so ultimately he was just looking out for his fortune. Boy this
changes everything. Should she even show the note to Blake? Kendall
had no idea how he would react to this information at all.

***

Blake needed to sort things out with the hotels. They were in the middle
of building a new hotel and Michael was no longer around, it was up to
him and Kendall to sort out specifics now. That's what the pact was about
after all, so they could unite and make their empire grow. It would be
strange to talk to Kendall about plans and blueprints and what trades to
employ. He was hoping she would give him power of attorney to sign off
on what needed to be done.

He heard Ryan's car pull up, seems like he wouldn't have to wait for long
to find out. Leaving his office he noticed Kendall look a little distant.
Could she be feeling bad for Lilliana? "Your back... How was your visit?"
"Hey, yeah it was good. I'm a little tired Blake I need to lie down."

"You okay? Something bothering you?" Blake was concerned.

"I'm okay, my mother is just too much sometimes, I don't know why I even
bother with her." That was the first insight Kendall ever gave him
regarding her family. He didn't want to push for more information but he
didn't want to waste this opportunity.

"She's your mother Kendall, how bad could it be?" He put his arm around
her waist trying to coax her into talking. He moved her on the sofa where
he sat her on his lap.

"Don't get me started, I swear Blake she has no fucking heart. My dad
has only been dead for over a year and she brings a new guy every other
week. She had the nerve to tell me that I should have called to let her
know I was coming."

"Maybe she just needs privacy." Kendall started at Blake and shook her
head.

"It's my father’s house Blake, it's my house, she has no right to even be
there, but I thought better her stay there and look after the place, I
shouldn't even be surprised you know, she was always selfish."

"Didn't your father and her get along?" Blake could not believe she had
opened up to him.

"Dad tried to compensate, he was my mother and my father. He just kept

her around because he didn't want the media to make a big thing out of it
and follow me around for information. They slept apart for as long as I
could remember, I'm telling you Blake, I have a feeling she's trying to take
my entire inheritance."

"Can she do that?"

"I'm not sure, I don't know what to do, it's all I have."

"I'll get you a lawyer to make sure there are no loose ends. Now about
business, honey it seems that you and I need to get to work. Both
signatures are required to get the job happening. I think we need to look
over everything together so we're on the same page." Kendall was a little
humbled that he wanted her to work with him. She knew plenty about her
father’s work. He involved her in all the decisions that needed to be made
regarding constructions. When she made the wrong choices her father
would show her what would happen if they went with that choice. Soon
enough she was always making the right decisions. Her Father was so
proud of her. Kendall looked deep into her husband’s eyes, she kissed
him, on the lips, softly, just needing to be close to him. He seemed
shocked at her boldness, took him a few seconds before he reciprocated
the kiss. He grabbed her head and pressed her deeper into the kiss that
suddenly became urgent.

"Ahem..." Ryan interrupted the kiss.

"What the fuck Ryan?" Blake wasn't happy with the interruption.

"Hey, you have a room, this is not a half-way house, so get lost the pair of
you... Disgusting." He winked at Kendall who despite herself laughed.

"Every dog has its day Ryan, you just wait, your’s is coming." Blake was
also laughing.

***

Blake was impressed with Kendall's knowledge about the business. She
was very smart, and knew things he never thought her pretty head could
process. He was wondering why such an intelligent person didn't flaunt it.
She was happy enough to flaunt her good looks and impeccable body,
but her smarts she was willing to hide. Go Figure.

"So if we decide to go with the Watpac Constructions then we need to

allow them full access to all. I mean they get the trades and they deal
with all the defects. If however we go with Bicton Constructions then we
get to choose the trades and we are responsible for all defects. I think we
should stick to Watpac and let them deal with it." If Blake thought his wife
sexy before now she was even sexier if that was even possible.

"Okay so we'll sign off on Watpac Constructions." She smiled and kissed
him from across the table.

"So Boss if there is nothing else, I'm hungry, I mean it is my lunch break."
Kendall noticed his eyes become lustful.

"It's my lunch break, so if you will Mrs Wyatt please lift up your skirt,
because I'm starved." Oh no way not here.

"Blake no way in hell are we going to do this in your office. How cliché is
that?" Blake walked toward her, stalking his prey, he looked like he was
going to pounce on her. She laughed and backed away.

"Who's Blake, I'm your boss remember?" He grabbed her around her
waist and pulled her into his arms, kissing her passionately, she melted
under his assault. Wrapping her arms around him, he lifted her skirt and
tore off her thong, undoing his pants he pulled out his fully erect cock and
held her up before impaling her onto his cock. Kendall gasped, he was so
aroused, he moved and slammed her back on the door while fucking her
hard.

Blake couldn't contain himself, he fucked her with such force before he
pulled out of her and forced her to her knees where he thrust his cock
into her mouth and he spilled his seed. She took the whole last bit of his
cum. She continued to suck him until he was spent. She looked up at him
with her big brown eyes, the eyes that promised sex.

"You really need to stop tearing my underwear, otherwise I'm going to

start billing you." He loved her sense of humour. Blake was falling fast for
his wife and he didn't care who knew it.

"Stop wearing underpants, easy solution." He teased while adjusting his

clothing. Kendall laughed as he pulled down her dress. It was nice to be
with somebody for a change, maybe this marriage thing wasn't a bad
idea after all.

Chapter 20

Kendall was shopping alone when to her horror she bumped into Logan
fucking Whitford. What the hell was he doing here? "What a pleasure to
bump into you here," he hugged her lingering a little too long. She pulled
away.

"Yes, it's nice to see you again Logan, but I'm kinda in a rush, so maybe
we can catch up next time.” Really wanting to get away from him, but he
grabbed her arm and pulled her to him.

"Kendall, I get the sense that you don't want to talk to me, have I done
something to upset you?" She looked up at him and smiled.

"Of course you haven't, listen Logan my husband doesn't really like me
talking to men when he's not around so I'm sorry if I seem a little edgy,
but I would rather not be seen talking to you here." He nodded his head.

"Is he hurting you Kendall? I can fix this whole situation up for you, I can
get rid of him for good." Kendall's eye's opened wide.

"Get rid of him? That's my husband you’re talking about, how dare you
think I would want to hurt him. I don't think we should ever meet up again.
Where you’re getting your information from I have no idea. Do not ever
approach me again." Kendall snatched her arm away from him. He
grabbed her other arm and pulled her in tight to him, he kissed her hard,
grabbing her head so she couldn't move. What the fuck was he playing
at? She kicked him on his legs until he let her go. Kendall punched his
face, her fist connecting with his cheek bone. "Get the fuck away from
me!" She ran from him fast. Leaving the mall and hailing a cab, the only
place Kendall wanted to be was at home with Blake.

When Kendall arrived at the manor she was a little shocked not to find
Blake home. "Hey Ryan, is Blake around?"

"He's gone to see Lilly, is something wrong, you look a little shaken."

"I'm fine thanks, I think I'll just go lay down." He went to see Lilliana?
Which meant of course he would be seeing Jade. Should she be
worried? Kendall just couldn't think, her mind was all over the place.
What was with Logan Whitford? Why was he forever trying to touch her,
and was it just coincidence that he happened to be at the mall?
Something just didn't add up. What was worse was she didn't think she
should tell Blake. Maybe pretend it never happened. Kendall was more
afraid that he wouldn't believe her.

Blake was happy with the way his visit went with Lilly today, she
promised to join them for dinner tomorrow night that was progress. It felt
strange seeing Jade again. She hugged him and shyly moved away, he
was sad that he hurt her, the hurt showed in her eyes. Still it was a civil
visit, she left them alone to talk and Lilly seemed like she might be
coming around. She said that Jade explained to her that it was neither of
their faults and maybe she should give Kendall the benefit of the doubt.
Jade was a gem and he would forever treasure the times they had spent
together. When he was leaving he spoke to Jade alone and thanked her
for her help with Lilliana. "If there is anything at all you need Jade all you
need is to ask. I'm very sorry things ended the way they did." She smiled
up at him.''

"Blake honey I've come to terms with it. I know that it's for the best. I still
love you, I wish you all the happiness in the world." She kissed him on
his cheek. He had a lump in his throat and was really humbled by her
sincerity.

When Blake returned home he headed straight up to see Kendall, when

he walked into her room she quickly shut her draw, she smiled at him but
something about her actions were suspicious to him. "What you up to?"
He said indicating to the draw.

"Nothing, it's a letter I found from my dad."

"Can I see it?"

"No you cannot... It's private. Soooo do tell how was your visit with Jade
and Lilliana?" He was sure she was hiding something, he would let it
pass for now.

"It went well, Lilly is coming to dinner tomorrow night, seems Jade has
made her see the error in her ways."

"Jade did that? Was there a reason you didn't tell me you were going?"

"No reason, it was a last minute decision. Is my wife jealous?"

"No your wife is not jealous it's just that if the roles were reversed I am
sure you wouldn't handle the situation as calmly as I'm handling it."

"You would be right. Now do I get a kiss, I've been thinking about you all
fucking day." He grabbed her face and kissed her.

"Mmmmm you’re forgiven," he laughed as he pulled away.

"So what did my Mrs spend her money on today?" He looked around the
room, no shopping bags.

"Oh yeah, I didn't want anything... Nothing caught my eye." Blake was
certain she was hiding something. His mood changed fast. He didn't want
to start accusing her of anything until he had solid proof. Deep down, he
knew she was up to something, and he couldn't help feeling like his heart
was being ripped out.

***

Kendall was dreading Lilliana coming for dinner. She dressed in Jeans
and a tight fitting shirt. Kendall tied her hair up in a ponytail. Making her
way downstairs just in time as Lilliana arrived. Great, Blake embraced his
sister and gave her a kiss on her cheek. "I'm glad you made it." Then it
was Ryan's turn, he hugged his sister.

"Good to see you squirt!" Lilliana wiped an invisible tear. She looked up
and their eyes locked.

"Hey Lilliana, good to have you back." Lilliana lifted her head

"Hello Kendall," this was going to be fun... Not...

The whole evening Blake was trying to involve Lilliana in conversation. All
Lilliana spoke about was how Jade took her under her wing and cared for
her. Kendall was trying really hard not to roll her eyes. After dinner
Lilliana excused herself telling Blake that she needed to get some of her
belongings from her room. "Blake do I have to stick around.? I think I'm
going to call it a night."

"Kendall, you’re doing good, please just stick around." Fine whatever
thought Kendall, she would play candy crush on her phone until Lilliana
went home.

"Has anybody seen my phone? It was just with me?" Nobody had seen
her phone, she looked high and low for it and couldn't find it. Kendall was
almost certain she had bought it down with her. Maybe she left it
upstairs.

When Lilliana returned she sat for a coffee, small talk between the
siblings were made, Kendall kept to herself. When Lilliana finally left
Kendall gave a sigh of relief. Thank god that ordeal was over with.
Kendall grabbed Blake's hand and pulled him behind her to her room. As
soon as she closed the door she was on him. Kendall kissed him like she
was starving for him, she loved the taste of him. Kendall was very
confused for her feelings for him, especially after seeing Logan and how
he offered to kill Blake, she just realized how bad she needed Blake.

Blake was quick to take the lead, he pushed her onto the bed, and pulled
off her jeans. Blake bought his head down to taste her, he licked her
pussy, her opened up her folds and licked inside her hot tight cunt, fuck
he loved the taste of his wife. He ravished her he bit her sensitive clit and
inserted two fingers inside her cunt, he could feel her nearing her
orgasm, she was moving frantically, he sucked her nub and finger fucked
her until she was screaming. Blake refused to stop until he was sure she
was spent. She raised her arms above her head and looked up at him.
"Babe if you need release your going to do all the work, I can't move that
was way too intense" He smiled.

Kendall saw the pride in his face by her comment. He pulled her feet to
the edge of the bed and fucked thrust his cock deep inside her. She
moaned, His face was pure lust and arousal. She loved the way his eyes
darkened, it was sexy as hell. It didn't take him long to reach his climax.
He pulled his head back as he grunted with pleasure.

***

The next morning and Kendall still hadn't found her phone, she looked in
her room and still nothing. When she went downstairs to look for it again
she found it in between the lounges cushions. She was sure she looked
there yesterday. Oh well at least she found it. Putting it in her back
pocket, Kendall went to see what her husband was up to. She wanted
him to take her out for lunch. She entered his office and he was so
intrigued by what was on his monitor that it took him a while to look up at
her. When he finally looked at her his eyes stared at her accusingly.
"What's wrong?" she asked. Something was definitely up.

"Kendall, I'm a little confused, I actually thought that things were going
good between us." Kendall looked at Blake like he was an alien. What
the hell was this about now?

"They are Blake, they're going great, what is the matter?"

"Would you say you have come to care for me?"

"Blake?"

"ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION!" he yelled, Kendall jumped

"Yes of course I care for you, why are you acting like this?"

"Come here," he moved his chair around. Kendall reluctantly moved

toward him, he sat her on his lap. He turned his monitor she could see
what he was looking at. To her despair she saw photos of her and Logan
kissing and holding hands like they were in love. Somebody had sent the
images to his email and Kendall stared dumb at the pictures. "What's this
then Kendall?"

"Blake let me explain please, just hear me out…" Blake put a finger to her
lips.

"You don't get to talk anymore Kendall, I warned you what would happen
if you fucked around."

"Blake I didn't fuck around, why are you so quick to damn me?" Blake
grabbed a fistful of her hair and pulled tight.

"Because of the fucking proof! Where's your phone Kendall?" She was so
scared at this point, she took the phone from her pocket and handed it to
him, she had nothing to hide. Who the hell was doing this to her?

Blake went into recent phone calls and what was there? Calls to Logan
Love. He saw black, He went into her messages and message after
message from her to Logan Love saying how they couldn't wait to see
each other again, that he would pick her up from the mall, how he was
going to help her get rid of her husband. Her replies were all about loving
him and feeling disgusted every time Blake tried touched her. Blake
thought he was going to have a heart attack. He was beyond angry.

"Is this proof enough for you?" He put the phone in her face, Kendall
went white, she shook her head trying to say something but nothing
came out. She moved off him, knowing he was about to become violent.
She ran to the door but he was on her before she could even turn the
knob.

Chapter 21

Kendall was pushed onto the door, she turned her face to the side and he
pressed her hard on the door. "Blake please just let me explain."

"You don't get to fucking talk remember? Now it's my turn, do I disgust
you princess? Are you fucking me to make me trust you? Ha so you and
your fucking lover can kill me?"

"I swear to you..."

"Shut the fuck up princess!" Blake pulled her away from the door and
turned her around. "I fucking loved you Kendall, I fucking trusted you, I
thought this was real. I fucking sent my family away. You’re good, I’ll
admit that, your played me for the fool, Kendall, you fucking played me
hard." Kendall watched him run a hand through his hair. He was sort of
crying looking frustrated and so hurt.

"Blake I'm begging you to hear me out, I'm being framed can't you see
that."

"Stop talking Kendall, it's enough." Kendall was sobbing, how could this
happen, now especially after she was willing to give Blake her heart. He
wouldn't see reason, he put his forehead onto hers and held her head
tight, "You fucked up Kendall, you fucked up bad."

Her saw her tears fall, and he wanted to scream, she needed to stop the
fucking act, she broke his heart, Blake was devastated, he pushed her
away from him and she staggered backward falling onto the chair. "I
FUCKING LOVED YOU, I LOVED YOU... I LOVE YOU STILL!" Blake
knew his behaviour was erratic, he wanted to choke her to death, how
dare she play with his emotions. Jade and Lilliana were right, he should
have listened to them. What a fucking fool he was to think for a second
that she cared for him. He walked towards her menacingly and grabbed
her by her neck lifted her up, her eyes were wild and full of tears. He
pressed hard, he abruptly let her go not trusting himself, he was on the
edge, and she had taken him there. Blake grabbed a vase and smashed
it onto wall, he saw Kendall jump and scream.

Ryan bursts through the door and instinctively moved in between Kendall
and Blake, "What the hell Blake?"

"Get the fuck out Ryan this is not your concern!" Blake put his hands out
to stop Ryan from moving forward.

"Blake tell me what's happened." Blake moved to his monitor and turned
it so Ryan could see the pictures. Kendall winced at the images.

"I swear on my father's grave, it was not like that." Kendall cried afraid
that Ryan was going to judge her.

"Your father's grave ay? What about your phone Kendall? You had
nothing to do with that also?" Blake thrwe the phone to Ryan and Ryan
scanned through the messages. Kendall noticed his back stiffen.

"Ryan I'm being framed, I'm being framed!" Ryan remained quiet for a
few seconds.

"Blake let's say she is having an affair, hypothetically, what is it that you
could do?"
"As father did to mother, she fucking deserves the same treatment."

"Over my dead body Blake, enough, you’re not father! He was disturbed,
he disgraced himself by his behaviour to our mum, this is enough, if you
are not going to hear her side, then you are judging her blindly. If she is
saying that she's being framed, why don't you give her the benefit of the
doubt?"

"Ryan there is no way she is fucking innocent, she played us all, look at
her, she fucked up my whole life, she fucked up our life. She will be
punished for her doings."

"Let her go Blake, that's what you’re going to do, you are going to let her
go, if you are too blinded by rage to see reason then you will send her
home. I will not sit by while another woman is tortured. No way brother,
not a chance."

"Ryan you really need to leave us alone. She is my wife and I will do as I
see fit."

"Understand Blake you will have to kill me first. Enough!" Ryan turned
and grabbed Kendall's arm pushing her behind him.

"Ryan don't you fucking touch her, she stays here!"

"I'm driving her home Blake, you can work it out tomorrow. Sleep on it
brother."

Blake wanted to kill his brother, why the fuck was he interfering with his
business? "Listen carefully Kendall, I want you to get the fuck out of my
house, I never want to see your face again, you are nothing to me, I was
right from the beginning, go home, it's where you fucking belong!" Ryan
urged her out and into the car where she openly sobbed again.

"Ryan I swear to you the pictures... I know him, his name is Logan
Whitford he said he knew my father, I met up with him once and he was
strange, then in those photo's I think he was following me because he
bumped into me and then he kissed me and kept holding my hands. He
even said he could get rid of Blake, I swear I told him never to talk to me
again. He was grabbing me as if waiting for somebody to take the photos.
The messages I swear to you I have no idea how they got on the phone. I
never once send him a message, Please believe me." She wept into her
hands. Even to her the story sounded unbelievable.

"Kendall, I believe you, this Logan Whitford was he the same guy you
danced with at the wedding?" Kendall nodded. "I'm going to do a check
on him. You stay out of sight for a few weeks, let me get to the bottom of
this. I'll find out who's behind this." Kendall was thankful that Ryan
believed her, at least he didn't judge her.

"What about Blake? Ryan I never wrote those things about him, he thinks
I deliberately set out to hurt him, I wanted to tell Blake about Logan but I
was so afraid he wouldn't believe me... Guess I was right." Kendall felt so
alone and lost, how the hell were people that cunning? She couldn't get
the image of Blake's face out of her head. He looked defeated, he looked
like his heart was broken. Kendall never meant for this to happen. Blake
please see this for what it is...

***

Blake trashed his entire office, he broke everything, hating her hating
himself for what she made him believe. She played her part well, he even
believed she cared for him, what an absolute fool he had been. He
believed her against all odds and really thought she was the one for him.
Idiot that he was to have fallen for her fucking act. Why Kendall? Why did
you have to ruin everything?

He shouldn't be surprised really, he was always waiting for her to fuck up.
He had a feeling she was up to no good, right from the start, yet he held
on to hope, and only because he wanted her so badly, so badly that he
made bad judgements when it came to her. Oh hell Blake now what?
Business needed to be done by the both of them, he didn't think he could
handle seeing her ever again. Karma was a bitch, and that was his
Karma because he hurt Jade, the one woman who loved him for him, the
one woman who would bend over backward for him, and do everything
and more to make him happy, he hurt her bad, and this was Karma
kicking him up the ass.

Blake drank until he could hold his head up no more, he just wanted to
forget the whole incident, he wanted to forget Kendall and ever meeting
her, he wanted to apologize to Jade and to Lilly for fucking everything up.
How could he be so blind? These thoughts kept repeating themselves in
Blake's mind driving him crazy, he picked up the phone and dialled Jade
"Blake?" Her voice so sweet…

"Jade, I fucked up, I fucked up," he was crying, crying from aggravation,
crying from anger and crying from hurt.

"Blake, are you okay? What's happened?"

"She fucking cheated on me Jade, I sent you away and she fucking
cheated on me, she played me for a fucking fool, I hurt you and I'm so
sorry, I'm so sorry baby!" He was slurring his words out.

"Where are you now?"

"Home, I fucked up, Jade, I fucked up my life."

"Do you want me to come over? Is Ryan with you?" Blake was shaking
his head. Ryan had just walked in and spotted Blake on the floor talking
on the phone.

"Blake, who are you talking to?" Asked Ryan clearly not liking this sight.
Ryan took the phone from Blake, although he tried to put up a fight, Ryan
had the control and took the phone easily enough from Blake.

"Hello, Blake what's going on, I'm coming over..."

"Ah Jade, this is Ryan, Blake has just passed out, it's all good he had too
much to drink is all." Ryan put her on speaker so he could help his
brother up.

"Ryan what did that whore do to him?"

"Jade this is not your concern. I'll get him to call you when he sobers up.
Do not attempt to come I'll have all gates locked. Goodnight Jade," with
that Ryan shut the phone.

"Ryan she fucked up my life brother..." Blake was too far gone to care
how pathetic he looked and sounded. He wanted to sleep forever and
never have to deal with the reality of what just occurred.

Chapter 22

One year later

Kendall was busy preparing for her meeting, she was sure that she would
be seeing Blake, hopefully he would send Ryan in his place, she was
nowhere near ready to see him. She cried months for him, she was so
distraught by his lack of trust, always his face that last time she saw him
would haunt her. He looked completely defeated, like a child who just lost
their mother. Kendall's heart ached every time she remembered that
look.

Not one month after she returned home she sent him divorce papers
granting him all of Michael’s shares, so Blake would be majority owner,
Kendall decided to sell her share and start her own empire. Divorce
papers were never signed by him and she waited every day for them to
be delivered declaring her single again. Kendall felt very ill the months
after that dreadful day with Blake, her nausea wouldn't relent, she
wouldn't be able to keep much food down, Kendall put it down to stress.

Cathy was never around, clearly not happy with Kendall returning home
and signing over the divorce papers to Blake. Kendall didn't care, in her
heart she was sure it was the right thing to do and that her father would
agree. Always sleepy and tired and very emotional, Kendall decided it
was time to start herself on anti-depressants, she couldn't continue to live
as she was, always sad always reminiscing about the time she spent with
Blake.

Going to the doctors and having a full check-up Kendall was informed
that she was five months pregnant. Five months that was more than half
way, doctor explained her lack of weight gain was from her nausea and
she would need to have a drip to rehydrate her body. So Kendall was in
hospital for a few days so that they were sure that baby and mum were
fine. To her relief the baby was perfect and the heartbeat sounded like
music to her ears. Kendall was so shocked to hear it she cried the entire
day. Miracles really do happen. Just when Kendall felt the loneliest in her
life, she was gifted with the one thing that would remedy that exact
condition.

The months before the baby passed quickly enough, Kendall tried to
restrict her outings to a minimum, not wanting any attention on her
current condition. Cathy didn't know how to react, she tried to play the
caring mother until Kendall told her stop. Online shopping and the baby's
room was all done and ready for the arrival of her child. She refused to
ask what the sex of the baby was, wanting it to be a surprise. Her father
would have been a wonderful granddad, it was such a shame he couldn't
be here to meet his grandchild.

When the baby finally arrived Kendall held that child in her arms crying
uncontrollably, she delivered the baby alone with nobody but her
specialists and the midwife. The child was a splitting image of his father,
his eyes were for her mother, but everything else was just like his father.
When asked what she would like to name her child, Kendall didn't
hesitate a second, she named her son Ryan Augustus Wyatt. If her son
took after Ryan, she would be the happiest person in the world. Kendall
would never forget what Ryan did for her and will forever be in his debt.

***

Blake was back to business as usual, he kept busy avoiding anything that
reminded him of Kendall. She was merely a ghost to him. When she had
the divorce papers signed and sent to him he went crazy. The bitch
wanted to sever all ties with him, then it dawned on him that she would
be losing out on all of Michael's share. She would hand over everything
to the Wyatt's. Why would she do something so stupid like that? What
would she have to gain from divorcing him, it was a lose lose situation for
Kendall. Ryan who seemed to step up and take on more of a roll in the
business advised Blake not to sign the divorce papers until they knew
exactly what was happening, a year later and the documents still sat in
his office drawers.

Blake was very apprehensive about the upcoming meeting, he was sure
to be seeing Kendall, and in his heart he did not think he would be able to
cope at all. The hotel was finally complete and they needed to have the
grand opening and to sign on specifics. He was not looking forward to it
at all, and more to the point he needed to have a date. Could he appear
with another woman when everybody knew they were married? He
assumed that it would just cause a scandal and that was the last thing he
wanted. So he opted on taking Ryan and Lilliana, that way he didn't go
alone. He wondered if Kendall would be taking anybody...

"Blake I know how hard this must be for you honey, I'm more than happy
to go with you to the opening." Blake looked at his phone and didn't know
how to answer Jade.

"Jade, honestly I don't think it would be a good idea. I'm trying to get
through this without any more complications, please understand."

"I understand Blake. Never mind, I hope it all goes well." Blake did not
resume his relationship with Jade, no matter how much she tried. He
wasn't feeling it anymore, Its like Kendall killed his feelings and
desensitized him for anybody else. A plague that was eating at his very
sole.

All suited up in his grey designer suit, Blake looked at his reflection, he
looked different somehow, hardly recognizing himself anymore, Blake just
prayed the evening went without too much dramas. He hadn't seen
Kendall since that over a year ago. It was now or never. He would be
professional, and not let his emotions take over. Here goes nothing...
***

"Well Kendall I must admit, you look amazing, only being six months
since you had Ryan you look really good. If anything your body looks
better than before, more mature like. You look like a very attractive
woman." Cathy was complimenting Kendall... That was a first.

"Thanks, do you think my clothes are okay for tonight?"

"I'm telling you now, you look fantastic. All your curves are showing yet
you look sophisticated, and sexy at the same time." Kendall smiled.

"You sure you’re going to be okay with Ryan? "

"Its fine Kendall, go and enjoy yourself, you haven't been out since Ryan
was born, you need to have a life."

Kendall looked at herself one last time before leaving, she wore a simple
black dress that reached just above her knees, accessorized with a thin
red belt, matching her red peep toe heels. She had her hair in a low bun
to the side of her head. Very professional, she dressed her eyes in smoky
charcoal and applied the reddest lipstick matching her shoes. Okay so
she looked good, all her curves were accentuated, no longer did she look
like a porn star, she looked like the sexy as hell part hotel owner. Kissing
Ryan and hugging him before she headed out the door. It was time to
face her fears once and for all.

***

When Blake arrived at the hotel everything was alive, the camera's the
media the celebrities each wanting to be a part of the show. Blake, Ryan
and Lilliana walked in with photographers yelling for them to stop and
pose, only waiting for the princess to arrive so they could cut the ribbon
and the party could really start. Standing at the front of the hotel, Blake
was very nervous about seeing Kendall again, she would probably come
dressed in a slutty outfit just to piss him off. Her limousine pulled up and
Blake held his breath. When the chauffeur opened her door and helped
her out, Blake swallowed hard. She looked breathtaking, very elegant yet
sexy as ever. Nothing like he was expecting. Ryan hurried to her and
grabbed her arm, she looked up at him with gratitude. It must be daunting
for her to do this alone. At least she was alone...

When Kendall reached Blake she turned around and held up her hands
and received applause. Cameras were going crazy, everybody calling out
for the princess, she smiled and posed for the photos. When it was time
to cut the ribbon. Both her and Blake had to hold the oversized novelty
scissors and cut the ribbon. Cheers and applause were going off in a
deafening sound. Kendall held herself as best as she could.

Finally, the party was happening and everybody was mingling and rooms
had been reserved for A list celebrities. Kendall was happy with the way it
turned out. She greeted her guests and made sure that the caterers
always had full tray of wine and champagne. All in all it went a lot better
than she thought. "Princess Kendall would you mind answering a few
questions?" Kendall smiled at the news reporter "Did you think you would
manage after your father died?"

"It's never easy to move on, I had a lot of help, and when I did need to
make decisions regarding specific details I always took into account how
my father showed me to handle situations."

"Do you think your father would approve of this hotel? I mean it's very
different from the way your father would decorate compared to his other
hotels"

"It is different, but my father always told me to follow my instincts and

they were telling me that it's time for a change. So yes I think my father
would approve. No more questions. Thank you" Kendall turned and
walked away. She didn't want to be talking about her father, she wanted
to hide and return home to Ryan. Always being the life of the party,
Kendall didn't feel like herself anymore.

Blake tried very hard to play the host to his guests, he wanted this night
to end. He was taken back by Kendall being so unaffected by seeing him
again. He watched as Ryan moved to her and embraced her. She smiled
at him and Blake's heart ached. He wanted to smell her to taste her to
feel her again. It was too late, her message was loud and clear. She was
disgusted by him, Blake had to learn to live with that knowledge.

"You look amazing Kendall, how are you holding up?'

"Okay, yourself?"

"Doing okay, I'm helping Blake out a lot with the business, his mind is a
little all over the place these days. Tell me why would you do something
as stupid as signing divorce papers? What's wrong with you Kendall? I
mean you will be practically left with nothing. Do you understand that,
Blake will own majority of everything and you will be left with nothing."

"Ryan I know what I'm doing, I don't want anything, he can have it all, if
he thinks I cheated on him and that I would want to hurt him then I do not
want to be associated with him. He hurt me Ryan, and anyway I have
other things to live for now."

"That's why you don't sign your life away. Jesus Christ Kendall, I thought
you were smarter than that."

"Why hasn't he signed yet? I sent them almost a year ago."

"I told him to hold off for a while. The point is I'm going to destroy those
papers, you are entitle to half of Michael's share. Do not be stupid and
send any more." Kendall looked at Ryan and almost fell apart, he was
one in a million.

"Ryan I just want to thank you for everything you have done for me, I
honestly appreciate it, don't think for a moment that I will forget what you
have done for me."

"Hey chin up kid, it will all work out. Turns out Logan Whitford was hired
by somebody to act like he knew your father, he was given enough
information to trick you into believing him. I haven't said anything to Blake
yet, I'm still digging, it seems somebody covered their track pretty well. I
need solid proof before I take it to Blake."
"Ryan, it's okay, I don't need him to know the truth anymore. I'm content
with my life, there is no need to complicate things anymore. Even If he
does find out the truth, I don't want anything else to do with him. Please
Ryan, just drop it."

"He never had Jade return, he hasn't had another woman in the house
since you left. Your room is untouched." Kendall had to swallow back her
tears.

"Stop Ryan please I cannot handle hearing anymore. Ryan it has taken
me long time to come to terms with everything, you have no idea what
I've been through." Kendall was about to have a meltdown she moved
away from Ryan and went outside for fresh air. The air was crisp and
Kendall welcomed the cool air on her face. The wind wiped away her
tears. Calm down Kendall, Calm down, it's almost over and you won't
need to see him again.

"You have the nerve to show yourself here?" Kendall turned already
knowing who that voice belonged to "Have you no pride? You’re a harlot
and everybody knows that now."

"Lilliana why don't you crawl back into that hole you came out of?" Lilliana
laughed and ugly spiteful laugh.

"Oh Kendall you still think you have the right to look down on me... Well
princess, I hate to inform you but I won, and in this game there is only
one victor and guess what? It's not you." Kendall eyed Lilliana
suspiciously

"What do you mean you won, won what?" Again that malicious laugh.

"I won the game, you are out and I'm back in. Don't try and cross me
again Kendall, maybe Logan Whitford needs another acting job. It pays
well you know?" Kendall's whole world starting spinning, it was Lilliana all
along.

"You must be completely brain dead not to have suspected me. How
foolish are you, to leave your phone lying around? It doesn't matter
anyway, you are exposed now, nothing more than a whore who thinks
she's a princess. It's sad really, I kind of pity you." Lilliana happy with
herself turned on her heels and headed back inside. Breathe Kendall, just
breathe...

Chapter 23

Blake wanted to leave, he didn't want to be around Kendall anymore, he

wasn't paying any attention at all to anybody, his eyes kept scanning the
room to see where she was. When Max his lawyer asked him to go into
the conference room to finish off paperwork, Blake was certain that
Kendall's lawyer asked her to do the same. He told Max he'd be there in
five. Blake needed to prepare himself to be near her after all this time.

When Blake entered the conference room he saw Kendall and her lawyer
sitting on the end of the long table. Max was also there. "Ah we can
begin?" Max the definition of a lawyer. Blake took a seat opposite
Kendall, she didn't look up at him at all. "Blake this is your wife's lawyer
Mr Ronald Brown."

"Nice to meet you, can we get on with this please?"

"Of course, let's get started." Talks between the two lawyers took place, a
lot of paperwork and a lot of signing. Blake couldn't care less about any
of it, he needed to be away from the she devil opposite to him. All
through the meeting she refused to look up at Blake. He was irritated and
wanted to shake her, he wanted to understand why she did what she did.
He needed to know if she ever had any feelings for him, but he couldn't
trust a word that came out of her mouth. He watched her whisper
something into her lawyer’s ear.

"Um Mrs Wyatt would like some of her private possessions that she left in
your house. She is asking if Ryan could deliver them to her?" Blake eyed
her suspiciously... Always about the fucking money.

"She can take it all." Again she whispered into her lawyers ears, Blake
was getting very irritated now.

"She only wants certain documents from her top drawer. Letters from her
father, but she is insisting that Ryan be the only person to see the letters
and to deliver them."

"Not a problem, anything else?" She shook her head when her lawyer
looked at her.

"That should be all then." The lawyers shook each other's hands and
then shook the other clients hands. They were talking amongst
themselves, Kendall and Blake stood quietly.

Kendall dared herself and lifted her eyes, she just wanted to take a look
at him, but to her horror he was staring right at her. They're eyes locked
for a moment... Just for a moment. "Are you ready Mrs Wyatt?" Kendall
nodded her head as she left the room with her lawyer.

"What the hell was that about Blake?" Blake looked at Max and shook his
head.

"Long story old friend." Stay strong Blake, the night was almost over.

As Blake was walking back to the main hall, he heard a reporter yell out
to Kendall. "Ms Hasting, is it true you have a six months old child, and if
so how have you kept it a secret for so long?" He noticed Kendall's face
turn white and she stopped in her tracks, she had no idea he was there
she moved close to the reporter

"Listen carefully, stay away from my family affairs, I have been more than
generous with you in answering your questions, lay off the personal
questions, otherwise I make sure you never work in this country again, is
that understood?" The reporter nodded her head and backed away.
When Kendall realized that he had heard every word she all but ran out
of the hotel into her waiting limousine.

***

Kendall prayed to god he didn't hear anything that was said. She was in a
state, what if he found out about the kid, oh fuck, she would be in some
serious trouble. She could deny it was his, he thought she cheated on
him, she could just use the excuse that it wasn't his. Only problem was if
he ever saw Ryan then all deals would be off, he looked like Blake, there
was no denying it was his child. Now what genius? You could skip the
country...

When she arrived home, she couldn't wait to go in and run to her baby,
he was sound asleep and Cathy was sleeping in the rocking chair in his
room. "Mum, mum wake up, I'm home.” Cathy opened up her eyes and
smiled.

"He was a gem, how was your night?"

"Don't ask. I'm going to have a shower and hit the sack, it was draining."

Kendall was so unsure how to proceed, laying in her bed she was trying
to figure out what to do if Blake found out about her baby. He would
definitely fight to keep him, if not that then he would want to spend time
with Ryan. Blake was very family oriented, and he would to have
complete access to Ryan whenever he wanted, Kendall didn't know if she
wanted him in their lives, he hurt her deeply, she had really fallen hard for
him, in fact she changed her entirely life to be with Blake, and the first
sign of trouble he judged her without giving so much as a chance to
explain herself and clear her name.

Just thinking back, Lilliana was there that night that Kendall had
misplaced her phone, if Kendall recalled correctly, she had her phone on
the dining table when Lilliana excused herself to grab some of her
belongings. She was almost certain that was the time that Lilliana
tampered with her phone. Little bitch, it didn't matter anyway anymore,
Blake had his chance to show that he trusted her and he totally screwed
that up. How conniving was Lilliana? Playing the innocent card, it was
amazing how her brothers didn't see through her.

Tomorrow was a new day and Kendall would need a new game plan and
it had to be full proof, if Blake wanted to know the truth about his baby
then this whole situation was going to get very messy. God give me the
strength to get through this...

***

Blake was beside himself, did Kendall have a baby? Her reaction when
she saw him was that of guilt, and the way she spoke to the reporter just
proved that it was true. Could it be his child? But if the baby was six
months old than that would mean she was pregnant while she was still
with him. But it didn't show that she was pregnant, and what if the baby
was that pricks that she had an affair with? This was all too much, he
would go see her and get to the bottom of it. He would force her if he had
to, he needed to know the truth, if she was even capable of telling the
truth.

Blake went upstairs to her old room and was determined to know what
was in the letters she so desperately wanted. Ryan wouldn't be the one
to deliver them, he would personally take them to her and threaten her
that he would discard them if she didn't tell him the truth. Opening the
drawer to her bed side table Blake noticed two letters in envelopes, one
opened that was addressed to Kendall and one unopened envelope
addressed to him... What the fuck? Who could it be from? He noticed that
the letter addressed to him was sealed so she hadn't even attempted to
opened, he wouldn't look at her letter just yet, but the letter addressed to
him that was a different story, it was for him after all.

Blake opened the letter.

Blake

If you are reading this then I'm and dead and buried, firstly I would like to
welcome you into my family, your mother would be proud to see the man
you have become. I know you think I have no right to speak of your
mother but believe me son, I think I am the only one other than Ryan that
is entitled to talk about her. She loved you dearly, she prayed for you
constantly, prayed that you would not become like your father.

This might sound harsh to you but your father was a very disturbed man,
he abused your mother long before I ever met her. When we became
friends she would often tell me stories of his abuse. One time she came
to my house in the dead of night all bloodied and bruised, she had no
shoes on and she could hardly stand. I took her to the hospital, dare I say
that was the day I fell in love with her. She broke my heart Blake, such a
sweet woman who didn't deserve that abuse. The thing was anything
ticked him off and was a reason to abuse her. That was the day she left
your father. I would have kept her forever and I never wanted her to
return to your father, but after a few months she missed you all too much,
and risked your father’s wrath just so she could continue to be a part of
your life.

Don't be consumed by hate Blake, she often told me that Thomas drilled
things into your head the most, that you would never stand a chance if
you didn't get away from him. I am writing this to you to explain why I had
organized with Michael about marrying you and Kendall off. I'm sorry I did
what I did but I made Michael promise me that he would do this before he
died, you see Kendall is my only daughter and her mother cares only for
herself, so without me I'm not sure Kendall would not be strong enough
to handle the world.

I am asking you to look after my daughter and protect her, I'm asking you
to take my treasure and shield her from harm. Blake, this feud between
the two families needs to end, you are your own man, your mother only
ever wanted peace, as I have. I could have easily had somebody do
away with your father, but for the sake of you and your family I never took
that step.
Make no mistake I loathed Thomas, but not for anything else except the
way he treated your mother and manipulated you. So I am leaving you
with my daughter, do not treat her as your father treated your mother,
treat her like the gentleman I know you are. I'm hoping I have been
reunited with your mother and we are looking down on you.

Please tell Ryan that both his mother and I are very proud of him, and
thank him for me for being there for Bella when she returned, she
survived that long because he gave he the strength to keep going.

I would like to think you come to love my Kendall as I love her. She can
be very stubborn and cheeky, but she is also very caring and the most
honest person I know, she will tell you as it is, never been able to lie very
well Kendall decided at an early age that the truth was always the best
option, only because she could never get away with lying...

Look after her Blake

Augustus Hasting...Your father in law.

Chapter 24

Blake looked at the letter and shook his head, what the hell was that
about? Augustus Hasting had planned the entire marriage, he and
Michael Lucius plotted this whole scheme. Why did Blake feel like he had
been duped? Not by Augustus or Michael but by his own father. Why
couldn't Blake see what everybody else seemed to see, or to know about
Thomas Wyatt? Ryan had always suffered at the hands of his father and
all because Blake was too much of a coward to stand up for his brother
and above all his mother.

Blake always associated his father’s abuse to his mother as punishment

for sleeping around, but come to think of it, the only time anything about
her adultery was mentioned was about Augustus, so why then did his
father abuse her long before they even knew of Augustus Hasting? Blake
reread the letter, and if he thought he was confused before, now he was
just unsure of his life. Blake had nothing, he felt empty and completely let
down. Just thinking about his mother suffering at the hands of Thomas
made his heart hurt, how could he think it was normal? Why didn't he see
how wrong it was? And why did he think making Kendall suffer the same
fate was okay?

Ryan was always clear about how wrong the whole situation was, he was
black and blue and even suffered broken ribs at the hands of their father
while trying to defend their mother. What a complete joke of a life Blake
had lived, Lilliana was even more like Thomas then he ever was, at least
with Blake on some level he sensed the abuse was a bit over the top. But
Lilliana never cared, all she ever cared about was getting her way with
Thomas, and once he passed, she worked her innocent act onto Blake,
once again Ryan never fell for the act. This was bad, what if he had
judged Kendall too harshly? He had abused her and restrained her, he
did make her life hell for a while... Blake had no idea what to think
anymore. The most important thing now was to find out if she really did
have a child and if the child was his or not.

***

Kendall was no clearer in the morning then she was the night before,
what was she going to do? She didn't want to lie to Blake, it was his child
after all, but she never wanted to go back to how things were between
them, he hurt her as much as he was hurting, she acknowledged this but
it was still no excuse. Did she love Blake Wyatt? The answer was easy...
Yes she loved him, but could she forgive him? And the answer to that
was a little more complicated.

After tending to Ryan, and putting him down for his nap, Kendall sat out
by the pool and tried to think of the best way to solve the predicament
she was in. She came out short, not a thing, what was she going to do,
knowing the clock was ticking and really starting to get anxious. Oh
please Blake whatever path you are going to take with this let it be a
reasonable one.

"Kendall, um your husband is here to see you." Kendall looked at her

mother, wow she didn't need to wait long, this was going to be
interesting. "He refuses to leave and says if you don't see him he will
break down the door dear, should I call the police?"

"Let him in mum, its fine." Cathy eyed Kendall suspiciously but didn't say
anything. Kendall sat rigid on the outdoor lounge, she really hoped she
could be strong for her baby. Glad she opted to wear a simple long floral
summer dress, she waited for Blake trying to tame her breathing.

When Blake walked out onto the decking Kendall wanted to run into his
arms, he looked so hot dressed in his jeans and black fitted shirt. Kendall
took off her sunglasses. Blake seemed to own the space, he sat on the
single seater beside her, all confident and ready for business. "You
wanted something?" Kendall broke the silence not being able to handle it.

"Yes I want something, first here is the letter you asked for," he said
handing her the envelope, she looked for the other one, "before you ask
the other letter was addressed to me, so technically it is my property."
Kendall did not expect that.

"Did you read my letter?" Blake shook his head "Did you read your
letter?" This time he nodded his head. Kendall really wanted to ask if she
could read it but didn't want to seem desperate, he claimed he didn't read
her letter so she would show him the same courtesy.

"Now, the reason I'm here, is it my child?" Kendall's heart dropped.

"Would you believe me if I said it was?" Blake's eyes turned almost black

"Kendall, I need an answer, is the child mine?" Drawing in a deep breath.

"It changes nothing Blake, nothing at all." She sensed him trying to take it
all in.
"It changes everything Kendall, if it is my child then I have every right to
be a part of its life."

"You think you’re entitled to talk about rights? Why are you entitled to
anything and I wasn't even entitled to tell you my side of the story? You
think that's fair Blake?" Kendall's tears were looming, she didn't want to
give in to them, but all the hurt and sadness erupted, she tried so hard to
keep it together all these months, and now she was on the verge of going
hysterical.

"Kendall... I was hurt, I was shocked, I didn't know what to think." Kendall
shook her head.

"You could have asked me Blake, do you still think I had an affair? Please
answer me truthfully."

"I'm not sure of anything anymore, I can't think anymore, I can't function
anymore."

"Well, I wish I could lie and tell you otherwise, but he his your son, and
I'm one million precent he is your son, do you know why? Because I have
never ever slept with anybody other than you, and if you feel the need to
get further proof your more than welcome to conduct a D.N.A test. I am
not afraid of the results."

Blake couldn't believe his ears, he had a son, his son, he was trying to
take it all in. "What did you name him?"

"His name is Ryan Augustus Wyatt." Blake's heart squeezed in his chest.
Fitting name, Ryan deserved more than a name. "I wanted Ryan to know
how grateful I was for his help and support, when you have nothing left in
life and then somebody like Ryan comes along, it's a blessing. I am in his
debt for everything" He really did owe his brother, Ryan stood his ground,
knowing he was in the right. Blake would make it up to him. If it was the
last thing he did he would make it up to his brother.
"May I see him?" Kendall looked at Blake and felt his sadness and
maybe even his remorse. She nodded her head.

"He's asleep, if you want to hang around till he wakes I guess that would
be alright" She saw his eyes light up, just a little yet it was there.

"I don't know if I should be telling you this, but I think you need to watch
your back, Lilliana said some things to me yesterday, she is not as
innocent as she appears Blake, she set me up, she hired this Logan guy
and what’s more she took my phone the night she came to dinner,
remember how she excused herself? She had my phone and she planted
the messages. Whether or not you believe me is up to you, I'm just telling
you exactly what she said to me." Blake frowned, that little conniving
bitch, she had ruined his entire life, she couldn't handle somebody else
coming in and taking over, and if he wasn't mistaken he was almost
certain that Jade was in on it too. For the first time in ever, Blake was
going to listen to Ryan and heed his warnings about Lilliana and Jade.

"Kendall, please, this is all too much for me now, I'm on the verge of a
fucking breakdown, I can't take anymore. I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I
didn't listen to you and I'm sorry you had our baby alone. I would give my
arm to have been there with you, through it all. I know you think I'm just
saying these things to win you over for the sake of our child, but I'm not."
Blake wanted to break something he couldn't handle all this information
at once. He shook his head "I've got to go... I'm sorry I can't be here
now..." With that he walked away, inside and out the front door. He was
finding it hard to breathe, everything was getting the better of him, he
couldn't focus anymore, he tried to make it to the car, the last thing he
recalled was him hitting his head on his car as he went into total
darkness...

Kendall heard the thump, she was still shocked by his abrupt exit, still
she had never seen him like that before. He couldn't seem to hold it
together. She hurried to the front to see if he had left, the front door was
fully opened and he was on the floor, She screamed for her mother to call
the ambulance, she held his head crying, trying desperately to get him to
open his eyes. He still had a heartbeat, but he was unconscious.
Everything seemed to be going in a dream like state, it was happening in
slow motion.

When the paramedics arrived, Kendall was being dragged away from
him, she couldn't seem to hear what anybody was saying, she just saw
them check his eyes and his breathing. Cathy was shaking her. ”Kendall,
did he have anything to eat or drink? They need to know what
happened." Kendall shook her head coming back to reality.

"No he just got really agitated and hurried off. Is he going to be okay?"

"He is going to be fine, we'll take him inside, I think he has suffered an
extreme anxiety attack. He is better off here, when he is up to it he needs
to get a full medical done, he may need to go on some anti-anxiety
tablets for a while. The most important thing at the moment is that his
stress levels need to come down. You need to get him try and relax."
Kendall was nodding her head, just glad that he was okay. When they put
him in the guest room, they once again checked his blood pressure, his
temperature and his heart rate. They also assessed his head where he
apparently hit it.

Chapter 25

Blake awoke to a migraine, his head was throbbing, where the hell was
he? In a bed, but where? He sat up and regretted that move, his head
was pounding, it felt like he was going to throw up. Getting out of bed
slowly, he realized his shoes and socks were off. Where in god's name
was he? Opening the door to the room he walked out and immediately
recognized it as Kendall's home.

He walked around the hallway into the living room where Kendall sat on
the floor playing with his child. He stopped dead in his tracks, Kendall
had her back turned to him so she wasn't aware he was there. Looking at
the child he almost cried. The child was an exact replica of him, Blake
tried really hard to concentrate on his breathing. It was happening again,
he was hyperventilating.

Kendall heard something and turned around, she saw Blake having
trouble breathing, laying Ryan on the floor, she hurried to Blake, "Blake
you need to take deep breathes, slow deep breathes, we are going to
count them okay? Five counts you inhale and five counts you exhale...
One, two, three, four, five... That’s good, now exhale for five, four, three,
two, one... Good, now again." He needed to get his mind sorted, counting
was the only way she could think of to calm him down, it seemed to be
working. His breathing was a lot more steadied. "Good now come while I
introduce you to your son." She held his hands and led him to Ryan.

Ryan smiled when he saw his mother, he moved his arms up trying to get
her to pick him up. Kendall smiled and picked him up, he started hitting
her face playfully. "Blake this here is Ryan," Blake's face was so sad,
Kendall's heart was breaking for him. "Hey this is a good thing, your
meeting your son, don't be sad," she rubbed his arm, his meltdown had
scared the hell out of her. Blake had tears in his eyes and he seemed
overwhelmed. "Blake let's sit down," she was so afraid he would have
another anxiety attack. "Honey you need to calm down, take it all one
step at a time, I'm sorry if I caused you this stress, I shouldn't have said
anything about Lilliana. Forget I said anything seriously, it was just me
trying to find a way for you to believe me."

Ryan was demanding attention, he didn't like that his mother was talking
to Blake and despite himself, Blake smiled. He seemed to be as
possessive as Blake was. Ryan tried was clapping his hands and blowing
bubbles and laughing over his achievements. Blake grabbed his hands
and Ryan looked at him curiously, "Say hi to dadda" Kendall said to
Ryan. "Dadda is a little upset, let's see if we can make him smile."
Kendall started singing twinkle twinkle little star and Ryan automatically
started doing the hand gestures. Blake smiled, he couldn't believe he
was looking at his son. The eyes were for Kendall, but all his other
features were for Blake.

Kendall placed Ryan in Blake's lap. "I'm going to get you a drink, you can
handle him for a minute or so," she said to Blake when he looked
shocked as hell. When Kendall returned, her heart warmed at the sight of
Blake and Ryan together, Blake was playing peek-a-boo and it was
adorable. Kendall placed the drink on the table in front of Blake and sat
beside him. "See it's not so bad."

"This kid is brutal, he wants to keep playing," she laughed, "little chubby
thing too. What are you feeding him?"

"I know, he grows out of his clothes so fast, look at his little rolls on this
thighs, it's so cute."

"Say Dadda... Can you say Dadda?" Blake asked Ryan trying to make
him repeat the word

"Um Blake, he's only six months, I don't think he's going to be saying
anything anytime soon."

Cathy walked in and that moment they had just shared seemed to
disappear. "Oh Blake your awake, How are you feeling honey? You gave
Kendall quite a scare." Cathy moved and took her grandson kissing him.

"What happened exactly?" Blake wanted to know how he ended up in the

room.

"You left and seemed very disorientated, I heard a thump and saw you on
the floor, we called the paramedics, after checking you over they put it
down to extreme anxiety attack. You need to relax and take things easy
for a while. They recommend that you see your physician and get a full
medical done. You might need something to help you get through
whatever it is you’re going through."

Blake was trying to process the information. No wonder his breathing was
erratic and he felt like his airways were closing up. It made sense, he was
under an enormous amount of pressure. "Maybe you should call Ryan to
pick you up, I don't think it's a good idea for you to drive." Kendall was
still worried and she didn't want him behind the wheel until she was
certain he was okay.

"Ryan is at a conference, he'll be gone for a few days. It's all good, I'll
take some pain killers and I should be fine."

"Look this is stupid, just spend the night here and tomorrow if you’re
doing okay you can drive home. Really the guest room is all made up, it's
not a problem at all." Blake wasn't sure why she would want him to stay
the night.

"Kendall, maybe I should..."

"Blake I insist, I can use a baby sitter while I cook dinner," she smiled.
Blake raised an eyebrow at her.

"You’re cooking again?"

"Well it turns out I'm good at it, and being a mother I wanted to cook for
Ryan, that way when he's older he'll want his mumma to cook for him,
because nobody makes food as tasty as mums do... so I've been told."
Cathy eyed her daughter out.

"Enough sass from you." Cathy took Ryan and headed outside. Kendall
just laughed.

"Swear that woman has never cooked a meal in her life." Blake laughed.
"I'll get you some pain killers and make you a sandwich." Blake nodded
his head. This seemed all too surreal, how was it she was being so
hospitable after everything he had put her through. Keep it together
Blake, keep it together, breathe... One, two, three, four, five, and out two,
three, four, five. Blake kept repeating that technique, it seemed to calm
him down. He needed to be strong now that he had a son. He would be
strong for his boy.

Chapter 26

Kendall spent the next week waiting to hear from Blake, nothing. It was
like he didn't want to be around her or Ryan, what else could she think?
Confusion set in, he seemed so affected by Ryan and suddenly nothing,
maybe he thought about it and perhaps came to the conclusion that Ryan
might not be his child. Again the rejection of the lack of his trust hit home,
Kendall wanted to scream and hurt something. Why come back into her
life just to leave her again? Get it together Kendall, you did it without him
so long, don't allow him to return you to square one, you have come a
long way Kendall...

Kendall heard her phone ring, picking it up she saw Blake's name come
up... Thinking of the devil, she answered and her heart did a little flutter...
"Hello"

"Kendall, are you free to come round tonight alone?“ Kendall was taken
aback by his assertiveness. He meant business, she knew that tone too
well.

"Why?"

"I need you to come to dinner at my place, trust me Kendall, please just
do as I ask." His voice held no argument, he was is in his zone when he
was determined, she had seen this side of him many a time.

"I suppose so, did something happen?"

"No, nothing, one other thing, does Ryan know about the baby?"

"No, I didn't want to put him in the middle of our problems. Blake is it
going to be a dinner where I'm going to get lashed at?"

"Kendall, I need you to trust me, I know I don't deserve your trust and it's
more than I gave you, but if I ever meant anything to you, I'm begging
you be at my place say eightish." Kendall heard the desperation in his
voice.

"Okay, I’ll be there."

***

Blake was getting nervous, he called his brother into his office "What's
up?"
"Ryan, I have invited Jade to come for dinner tonight." Ryan's face
dropped.

"Blake, man you need to think about what you’re doing, do you really
want to get involved with her again?"

"I need you to trust me brother." Blake didn't want to give anything away,
he needed Ryan to just go along with him on this.

"I trust you Blake, but I just don't trust your judgement sometimes. There
is something about Jade that I just don't trust." Blake couldn't believe that
Ryan was spot on.

"Ryan, let it go for now," if Ryan was pissed he didn't show it.

"Whatever you want bro." Ryan turned on his heels and left. Obviously a
little pissed, or a lot pissed, same difference, today everything will come
to light.

***

Kendall didn't want to over dress for dinner, she wasn't sure which way to
go with what to wear, after a long and exhausting hour Kendall finally
chose a pair of beige pants and a simple cream shirt which frilled down
the centre. She looked classy, adding a thin black belt and matching
black heels, Kendall was happy with the outcome. Tying her hair up in a
high ponytail, and adding a minimum amount of makeup.

After putting Ryan down for the night Kendall explained to her mother she
didn't know what time she would be home, a little unsure of the entire
evening.

Standing at the door of Blake's house, Kendall was second guessing her
decision to come, it looked like both Jade and Lilliana were here, what
the hell was his game? Kendall really didn't want to be anywhere near
them, it seemed really odd that after all this time that he would want them
all together, well there is only one way to find out.

Knocking on the door and holding her breath, to her relief Ryan opened
the door, she flew into his arms, "Hey, what in God's name are you doing
here?"

"I have no idea, Blake insisted I come, I'm very confused, do you know
what's going on?" Hoping that Ryan would shed some light on what was
going on.

"I'm afraid I'm as lost as you, he called me in earlier today and informed
me that Jade would be joining us for dinner, and to trust, sorry Kendall, I
know he's up to something but no idea what." That made two of them.
"But please let me walk you in and announce you, it will make my day,
Jade has been all in Blake's face like they are back together, trust me it's
quite disturbing to watch, and Lilly couldn't be happier," here goes
nothing.

"Oh Blake I cannot believe how long it's been and it still feels like home to
me, I guess home is where the heart is."

"I would say so Jade." Blake was so over this shit, why didn't he see it
before, suddenly everything seemed so clear like it's been like that from
the beginning and only now the fog has lifted and he could see clearly.

"I was thinking maybe we can go away for a few days, I think it would be
nice if we got to catch up after all this time." Blake smiled.

"Sounds like a plan." Just then Ryan walked in with a stunning looking
Kendall.

"Oh Blake, Kendall has arrived for dinner, I guess we can start now, I'm
starving as Kendall is always fashionably late." Blake stood up and
Kendall gave him a what the fuck look. He smiled as he moved to her
and kissed her on her mouth, not an open mouth kiss, but a kiss that held
no argument that she was still his wife.
"Kendall, please take a seat, your favourite is on the menu tonight."
Kendall forced a smile.

"Great I'm starving."

"I'm sorry Blake is this some kind of joke? Why is she here?" Blake
turned and looked into Jade's eyes.

"Why? Let's see... For one she is my wife, why would you ask such a
question?"

"Blake, what is going on here?" Lilliana almost yelled out.

"Ah Lilly, you don't get to talk this time, as for Jade, If you are so close to
my sister then you get her to do your bidding, she can go back and live
with you, and if you think for a second that Lilly will be getting a dime
from our empire, you are sadly mistaken. This belongs now to my brother
Ryan, my wife Kendall, me and my son. If either of you feel the need to
sabotage my life, or Ryan's or Kendall's life in anyway so help me god I
will have you left homeless without a dime to your name. Listen carefully
Jade, no more thinking I'm fooled by your act, I would love to thank my
brother and my right hand man for making me see the truth." The look on
all their faces was priceless, Jade was opened mouth like she had no
idea what was going on.

"Blake what lies has she fed you, honey it was all Lilliana, I told her I
wanted no part of it." Lilliana stared dumbfounded.

"Jade, why are you saying that? Jade I never did anything."

"Stop with the lies Lilly, tell Blake the truth, tell him how you set it all up."
That was all Blake wanted to hear.

"Lilliana just stop, you are as worthless as this entire family." Jade could
no longer hold back, Blake could sense she was about to erupt.
“You are all pathetic, letting a harlot into your family, Lilly you are the
most pathetic of all, you never could do anything right!"

"Watch your tongue Jade, that's my sister you’re talking about." Ryan
stared Jade down. "I think you should leave." Ryan stood up to
accompany her out the door. She snatched her arm away from him.

"I know the way, and what about Lilly, who's going to take you in after
this? I'll ruin you."

"Not before I ruin you first Jade, don't tempt me, Blake's already given
you a way out, take it and leave, don't ever let us hear of you again, I will
be the one to bring you down, it's been a long time coming Jade, so I
dare you to try me." Blake was so proud of his brother. Jade grabbed her
bag and stormed out of the house.

Awkward silence filled the air, Lilliana was looking down at her plate,
Kendall was shocked speechless, Blake was counting and breathing,
Kendall hurried to him. "Blake deep breathes, one, two, three... Good,
deep breathes Blake, good and again."

"Blake what's wrong? Kendall what's wrong with him?"

"It's okay Ryan, Blake is getting anxiety attacks and needs to lessen his
stress levels, he needs to see his doctor, look he's all better."

"It's okay I'm fine please don't fuss." Kendall was still feeling a little
weirded out by the whole Jade thing. Blake showed her how much he
was willing to do to make amends, at least for his son, which was more
than enough for her.

"No Blake, you’re going to see the doctor tomorrow, you should have
seen the doctor from last week. He had an episode where he collapsed
and the medics needed to come."

"Kendall stop, I’m fine."

"Blake what the fuck man? Your health comes first. And um am I missing
something about you two?" Kendall nodded her head when Blake gave
her a can I tell him look.

"Let's just say, you are now known as Uncle Ryan to your six months old
nephew Ryan Junior." The look on Ryan's face melted her heart. "You
have a baby? and you named him after me?"

"I only found out last week, he is six months old and exactly like his
father, he has his mother’s eyes and the rest is for me!" Kendall smiled.

"He would love to meet his uncle, he has heard a lot about him and I'm
sure he would also like to meet his aunt, if she is willing to get to know
him?" Kendall looked at Lilliana, she looked up and Kendall tried to give
her a reassuring look "It's not hard Lilliana, you have two brothers who
care deeply about you, what I wouldn't give to have had that." Lilliana had
tears run down her face.

"I will pack my things and leave." she said as she stood up to leave.

"For heaven’s sake Lilly, enough, If you leave this time you’re not coming
back, I swear to you, this is it, you want to leave then go, but you will be
forbidden to ever step foot here again." Blake was trying to remain calm.

Kendall decided to keep out of it, they could deal with it on their own.
Wasn't her problem, Lilly deserved everything that was coming her way.
Karma is a bitch Lilly...

Chapter 27

Kendall went home with the strangest feeling, why would he do that? And
he did it in a way where he wanted Kendall and Ryan to witness the
whole thing. Kendall assumed it was Blake's way to right what he had
wronged. Kendall smiled all the way home, she couldn't believe that Jade
and Lilliana caught themselves out. It felt so good for Blake to realize she
had never cheated. The only thing she wanted now was to go home to
her baby.

For all the time that Kendall thought that life had wronged her, wronged
her by giving her a mother that cared only for herself, wronged her by
making her an only child, wronged her by taking her father at the most
important time in her life, and wronged her by forcing her to marry a man
she had never met. Tonight Kendall realized that life had not wronged her
in anyway, Life had shown her that her mother changed from being self-
absorbed selfish woman to a doting grandmother, life had shown her that
although not related by blood Kendall found Ryan who did more for then
any sibling could have done. Life had shown her that although her father
who she adored and depended on was her champion even after death,
he led her to a life where she would find herself. And above all life had
shown her that against all odds and despite bad blood between two
people love can be found and the proof can be given by a child.

Tonight proved to Kendall, that throughout her life, all the wealth and all
the material things she had, was nothing compared to having health, love
and happiness. Tonight Kendall was reborn, she trusted again, she
believed again... Tonight was the first time since her father died that
Kendall felt happy again. Kendall wanted to take on the world... She was
back, but this time she would eliminate all the fake people from her life,
she would eliminate anybody who wasn't prepared to accept her as she
is now, not as she had been. Tonight Kendall finally grew up and was
ready to be a woman.

Blake looked at his sister "Lilly, you have allowed Jade to come between
us as a family, you allowed her to pull your strings like a puppet. I though
more of you, I'm very disappointed with you, I am extremely unhappy with
your choices. From here on end, rules are my way or Ryan's way. If we
disapprove of your choices then you will do as you are told. If you ever
want to see some sort of inheritance I suggest that you take this
information on. There will be no contact with Jade whatsoever. Is that
understood?" Lilliana looked like she was having a hard time swallowing
these conditions.

"Blake I'm twenty six years of age, you can't tell me what to do." Blake
nodded his head.

"Then my dear sister you can leave when you’re ready. The deed to the
house and to dad's entire empire is all in my name, so I'm afraid you get
nothing."

"That means Ryan gets nothing as well..."

"Honey I have my lawyers draw up the contracts already, Ryan gets half
of everything I own. You only have yourself to blame. This will always be
your home Lilly, but you will only ever receive free boarding, if you ever
change your mind and will do things our way then maybe Ryan and I will
reconsider giving you something, until then I bid you farewell and hope
you come to your senses." With that Blake left Lilliana alone to ponder
her thoughts.

Blake meant what he had said, Ryan deserved even more than that,
Ryan was the strength of this family, and as long as Blake lived he would
try and be there for him as he had been for Blake. Now all that was left
was to try and win his wife back. He would beg for her if that's what it
took. Blake was not beneath begging, he deserved to beg for what he did
to her. Just thinking about how abusive he became around her made him
sick in his stomach, how close had been to imitating his father’s exact
actions?

Life was unpredictable and no matter how Blake had assumed his life
would turn out it always seems to shock him. There was no certainty in
life... Except death.

***
What the hell was taking Blake so long to ask her to return to him? In all
honesty, she thought he would at her door the following day asking her to
return, It had been almost three weeks and nothing of the sort. He comes
everyday sees his son, sits with her for an hour then leaves. He had
dinner with them a few times, but always so polite, and withdrawn. What
was wrong with him? Did he even still want her? Come on Blake give me
something she thought, maybe it was time to take things into her own
hands.

Forming a plan in her mind, Kendall was ready. She would do whatever it
took to get him to want her again, she was over being upset, life was too
short, all she wanted to do was be with him so they could be a family. Her
little family, please want me back Blake.

That afternoon when Blake arrived to see Ryan, Kendall was in her zone,
it was show time. He came in as usual and asked how she was, small
talk and he asked for Ryan. "Ryan is out, I'm sorry, mum wanted to take
him on a play date, I couldn't say no." He looked at her a little surprized.

"Oh, okay, I suppose I should go then." He sat staring at Kendall.

"Yes I suppose you should leave, I mean I was planning on calling

somebody over to help me... You know... I need release and it's so
unsatisfying when I do it alone..." She bit her bottom lip looking at him.

"What the fuck Kendall, who the fuck are you going to call?" She smiled
to herself, there he was the Blake she loved, the no pretence Blake who
took what he wanted without asking. She wanted to play some more.

"It's nobody I care about Blake, seriously don't get worked up, it's just I'm
still married so it would be disloyal to my marriage if I was in another
relationship, it's just a male escort thing you know just to help me out."
His eyes went black as the night sky, did he really think she was serious?
Dumb ass!

"Over my fucking dead body you’re going to get anybody else, what the
fuck is wrong with you?" He grabbed her cheeks squeezing hard. "Are
you serious because I'm about to fucking break something and I really
don't want it to be your fucking neck?" Kendall knew play time was over,
she pried his hands away.

"Well it took you long enough, talk about not getting the hint." He looked
very confused.

"One, two, three, four..." Kendall grabbed his hand and kissed his palm.

"Blake, I was trying to get your attention, I miss you, I thought after you
found out the truth you would want me back, I tried being subtle, I tried
giving you hints, you seem unlike yourself. I don't like the reserved side
of you. It's too creepy, you are who you are and if you get pissed then
you deal with it, not bottle it away until you can't take anymore and are
about to erupt. Honey I'm madly in love with you and I hope you still have
feelings for me." There it was, Kendall laid her heart out on the line, she
was vulnerable to him now, if he wanted to he could tear her heart apart
in less than seconds. She held her breath desperately wanting him to say
something she wanted to hear.

"Come here." She scooted over to him, he fisted her hair forcing her head
up. "If you ever joke like that again I will not be responsible for my
actions. Consider yourself warned," he kissed her, it was a forceful urgent
kiss that made her insides melt. This was more like it. She felt her lips
bruise and didn't care, she was elated to be in his arms, she wanted
nothing else in the world, at this point in her life... Life was perfect.
