Chapter 1: A New Plan
"Ok we have to talk"
"Talk later, I have more pressing issues now"
"I'm serious Sebastian!"
"So am I. How do you expect me to have a conversation with you when you're not wearing anything. Christ your beautiful." He leaned in and kissed his wife passionately on the lips.
Wife. God that was going to take some getting use to, but they had in fact done it. Nearly a month ago they had secretly gotten married in Barbados. It was just them and the preacher on the beach at midnight with none of their annoying family present or any of there so called friends. Just them, just as it has always been. They had stayed there ever since and hadn't even bothered to tell anyone what they had done or even where they where. The truth was neither of them where really looking forward to having to explain themselves and they had the means to do whatever they wanted including blowing off work and school. He knew they would have to go back eventually but he really wasn't looking forward to it.
Kathryn kissed him as she pushed him onto his back. She quickly straddled him and grabbed his wrists pissing them against the bed. Sebastian was so distracted by the kiss that he didn't see when she pulled out the handcuffs. She quickly cuffed him and he pulled away from her mouth. "Hey! What are you doing?"
"I told you we have to talk and this seems to be the only way to make you listen." Sebastian tried to budge his wrists but it was no use the handcuffs where too tight.
"Kathryn these hurt. Don't you remember that?"
"I remember but I also recall they can be a lot of fun." She began to massage her breast and play with her nipples.
Sebastian let out a groan of frustration "that's not fair."
"We have to go back."
He wasn't totally surprised by this revelation; he knew Kathryn would want to go back eventually he was just hoping it would be sooner rather than later. "Why? Aren't you having fun?"
She smiled down at him "of course I'm having fun, but we need to get back to our life eventually. I need to get back to New York."
"You need to? Oh I get it your planning something."
A slow smile crossed her lips "You could say that. Sebastian what do you see for the future?"
"I see you and me. I take it your on the same page as that, right?"
"Yes, It's just…I don't want to become my mother."
"Where did that come from?" Kathryn shrugged and looked off. "Hey look at me. You are nothing like your mother. You're not going to become her."
"I don't want to be like her. I don't want to rely on someone else to take care of me. I'm sick of this debutante shit. I want to rule New York."
Sebastian was curious as to where she was going with this. "What do you mean by that?"
"Well first I want what's mine. I want to take over my fathers company. He left it to me and always said I should run it after he's gone. Well I'm done waiting."
"But wasn't Court named CEO?"
Her smile returned "for now he is, but not for long."
Sebastian laughed at her "well you know I support you. Now can you uncuff me so we can play?"
Kathryn ignored him "that's not all. I want that bitch Mrs. Caldwell to know her place in society and it certainly isn't at the head of it. She's been walking around like she's Jackie fucking Kennedy and I'm sick of it. When I'm done with her she'll be kissing the hem of my skirt and begging for invites."
"Baby I hate to state the obvious but I have a feeling that might not be as easy as you think. I mean aren't you a little worried about how everyone will react when they find out you married your former step brother?"
"Since when do you worry about what other people think?"
"I don't but it might put a damper on your plans."
She smiled confidently as she reached for the key on the night side table "I can handle it. That whole society is a bunch of sheep. You get one moron to agree with you and the rest will follow suit. When I'm finished everyone will be kissing our ass."
"I love you" he replied as she uncuffed him.
"You better" she told him. She rarely told him she loved him back but he knew she did. She wouldn't be risking everything for him if she didn't. "So we'll leave then?"
Sebastian sighed and kissed her "I'll book us a flight for tomorrow morning. Now back to what we where doing…"
* * * * * *
The limo was waiting for them when their plane landed. "So are you going to tell me where were going?"
"No" Sebastian told her firmly. The whole way home Kathryn had been inquiring as to where they were going to stay. They had both agreed that they didn't want to stay at Tiffani's old place. Too many memories, so he told her he would find a place, but he refused to tell her about it. It was too much fun making her squirm. He didn't know what she was worried about. Did she really think he would make her live in a dump?
"Well just give me a hint" she asked as she climbed in the car.
"No. It's a surprise." He grabbed his journal from one of his bags and got in next to her.
"Please. I'll suck you off for an hour tonight if you tell me."
Tempting. "You'll do that anyway. Just wait and quit bugging me." He began writing enjoying the power he had over her.
Kathryn moved away from him "fine just sit there and write in that faggot journal. Why the hell do you write in there now? It's not like your screwing anyone but me."
"Oh aren't we bitchy when we don't get our way. And don't worry being with you gives me plenty to write about, more even."
"Well can I at least look at it?"
He laughed "no way."
"Oh come where married now."
"Maybe when I'm dead"
"Now there's an idea."
He looked up at her and smiled at the cold look on her face. The car then stopped "perk up baby were here." She quickly climbed out of the car and he watched with delight as her expression changed. She smiled up at the large building and he came up behind her.
"Which floor?"
"The whole fucking building" he whispered in her ear.
Kathryn laughed and grabbed his hand pulling him inside. The house, if you could call it that was a lot like Tiffani's old one except newer and larger. Sebastian had spotted it before they left and made the owner an offer. It had been insanely expensive but it had been worth it to see the look on his wife's face. Kathryn walked into the spacious living room and twirled around. "It's so beautiful Sebastian."
"I thought you'd like it." Sebastian walked over and picked her up "now what do you say we go christen a few rooms?"
She nibbled at his ear and whispered, "Sounds like a plan."
Sebastian carried her into the next room looking for a smooth place to put her down. He almost put her down on the floor when he heard "where the hell have you been?"
His father got up form his spot on the couch and glared at the newlyweds. Sebastian was so surprised he almost dropped Kathryn. "Dad what are you doing here?"
"Looking for you. I haven't seen or heard from you in a month. I thought you left the country for good until the lawyer come over with the deed to this place. Mind telling me where you've been?" He suddenly looked away and seemed to notice Kathryn for the first time "oh hello Kathryn. I take it you were as angry at him as I was."
"Umm well…"
"Dad Kathryn was with me. We were in Barbados."
"What the hell were you doing there?"
Sebastian looked over at Kathryn who gave a small nod "we were getting married."
"You…" Edward trailed off. Sebastian just nodded at him. Truth be told he wasn't exactly sure how his father would react to the news but he doubted he would freak out that much. After all Kathryn was one of the most respected girls in New York. "Well…that's" he broke into a huge smile. "That's great, congratulations!"
"Thank you," they both replied in unison.
"Welcome to the family Kathryn…again"
Kathryn smiled at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek "thank you Edward. Now I'm going to go check out the upstairs I'll be right back."
The two men watched as she exited "well this comes as quite a shock son. I didn't even know you too where that serious."
"Yeah well what can I say I love her. I always have."
"You do understand that this is going to come as a surprise to some people. I mean she was your step sister."
Sebastian sighed and rolled his eyes "I know but Kathryn seems to think she can handle it. And you know her she probably can."
"That's right I can" Kathryn replied as she came back in. She wrapped her arms around Sebastian "I am a Merteuil after all."
Edward smiled and nodded then his expression fell "umm have you two been in contact with anyone since you left?"
"No. Why?"
"Well I think you should know that they released Annette."
"What!?" Kathryn screamed. "They released her? She tried to kill me for Christ's sake, what do you mean they released her?"
"Well it's only temporary" Edward explained. "Apparently her father has become ill and she got a judge to let her leace temporarily. She's in Kansas now but it's ok. She being heavily watched at all times and they're planning on putting her back in the hospital in another week."
"Are you sure?" Sebastian asked as he watched Kathryn with concern. She slowly sat down on the couch and he sat down next to her.
"Yes, I have the judges word on that."
"Alright" Kathryn replied softly.
There was an akward silence for a moment. After a moment Edward broke the silence "well I was thinking, how about I throw you two a party to announce your marriage. It can be at the Plaza and we'll invite everyone."
Sebastian really didn't want to go and he could tell by the expression on Kathryn's face that she felt the same way, but he wanted to get her mind off this Annette think. "That sounds great dad."
"Yeah great" Kathryn replied with false enthusiasm.
"Well good then I'll call you with the arrangements. I have to get back to the office I'll see you two later. And congratulations once again."
"Thanks" Sebastian said and then rolled his eyes after he left, happy to be rid of him. He turned his attention back to Kathryn who was staring off into space. "Hey are you ok?"
She looked at him and gave him one of her phony smiled "yeah I just really don't want to go to that party."
"I think your losing your edge. You use to be a better liar then this. Your freaked about Annette aren't you?"
She sighed and leaned back "It's just how do we know she won't escape? The last thing I need right now is to worry about the virgin psycho Mary running free. I don't want her ruing things."
"She won't" he assured her. "She's miles away and you heard my father she's going back in, in a week. Don't worry about it."
Kathryn looked over at him and smiled "I do love you, you know."
He smiled back at her surprised by her declaration "I know. Now which room do you want to go christen first?"
