I go back upstairs and I find Anastasia sleeping in a chair next to Hope . I scooped her up and take her back to our bed and sleep finds me quick.

Hope Pov

Flashback- Mommy No..No I'm sorry!

I wake up sweating, I can't sleep I normally will just sketch in my room but I walk out of my room and I find myself standing in front of Christian and Anastasia room.

I quitely open the door they are both wrapped up in each other's arms.

Flashback- Tell me the story again mommy. He never lets no one sleep with him but he lets her...they sleep wrap in each other's arms. I wished it was me ..what does she have I wonder ...

I sit quietly in the corner of their room and start to sketch them,instead of Anastasia wrap in his arms I sketch my mom it brings a smile to my face.

Later that morning...

Flynn Pov

How did you feel when you saw Hope kneeling?

I felt... a lot of rage against Lelia , Elena and myself I didn't protect her and at the same time I was disgusted with myself at one point I whipped women those women are someone's daughter - Christian

Yes but those women concented. I'm going bring in Hope and we have a group discussion see if we can get some questions answer. Let's have Hope join us - Flynn

Hope Pov

I didn't realize Anastasia was going be in here too...normally it's just me and Christian. " So what you want to know ?"

"Hope, when did you meet Elena?"- Christian

"I knew her all my life my mom told me that she ended her contract with you because she found out she was pregnant and well she knew you didn't want more . When I was a year or two she went back to talk to you she thought you changed she saw you in the papers with her ... but things I guess went south you didn't want my mom. So the great Doctor over here Baker Acted her and placed her on a 72 hrs hold. She had left me with a friend another submissive I don't remember her name well she called Elena and the cat was out of the bag. She use to come see us a few times a year and as I got older she visit more frequently.

"What did Elena did to you?"- Christian

"Mam I mean Elena use to give me lessons you know how to be a ... she will hit me if I messed up." I can see Christian face turning red.

Was that you Fire Rescue found ?" - Flynn

"I hesitated but I look at Christian eyes and I can't lie again I whisper Yes."

"Aggg" I start to pace the room until Flynn directs me to calm down and sit down.- Christian

" So you were sexually assaulted? - Flynn

" I look down at my hands and I can feel him and smell him again.. "Yes.. I had been with you know Sir"

I'm seeing red !! I find my self just grunting and running my hand thru my hair." -Christian

" Where was Lelia when all this was going on ?? Why didn't she..."-Anastasia

Flashback—"Hope you don't look at Sir! Have you not taught her anything Lelia !- Elena

"It's time she learns there's consequences for her actions, Hope go to my room" -Sir

"No please I failed in teaching her punish me!- Lelia

" She can watch and she will learn.. I can hear the smack of the canes on her back.. it's all my fault .. Mommy No!!"

-end of flashback

I quickly get up and start to yell at Anastasia

"Why didn't she what?? My mom did what she can! You you don't know!!! You don't have the right to say something about my mom! If you weren't .. she .. .." I blackout out ..

Hope I catch her before she hit the floor, Hope can you hear me! I lay her on the sofa." - Christian

"Here's a pillow for her head."- Anastasia

"She's fine! I think you done enough Anastasia" I realize as soon as it came out of my mouth that I shouldn't have said that.- Christian

"Wow ! Really Christian!" - Anastasia

"Anastasia I'm sorry I didn't mean to...I just been overwhelmed with all that happen the last 24 hrs.- Christian

Flynn Pov

Hope starting to come around. "Christian, Anastasia ..."

"Hope you fainted, your okay and safe nod you head if you understand. Good I'm going Sir you up slowly."

"Okay Hope we just want to talk for a few more minutes. You feel up to that?"

Hope Pov

No I'm done talking I have nothing else to say." I can't believe I fainted. I'm just so exhausted from the lack of sleep and I saw red when Anastasia try to blame my mom.

Christian POV

Hope just answer me this who is Sir please ?" I'm pleading with her I need to know I need to protect her and I know once I find out he's dead. My fist are clinch so tight my knuckles are white.

Hope Pov

I look in his grey eyes and I see he will kill him.. I can't let nothing happen to Christian. I only know what my mom told me about him . I only know he always will chose her and his kids over me .. that I'm nothing .. but I can't explain the love I feel for him and I can't risk anything happening to him. " I don't know his name and I never seen his face."

Christian Pov

"Hope you know ! Those marks on your back tell me other wise . Tell me!"

—Flashback

" It hurt so bad I can feel him inside me, I can smell the alcohol on his breath as he moans. My eyes shut so tight praying it be over soon. I open them and look up at him on top of me ."

" You know better than to look at me. Now you will be punish and your mom is not here to save you this time.- Sir

Hope Pov

He can't know .. "No I didn't see his face!" You weren't there when he rape and beat me . So don't tell me what I did or did not see! I can see the hurt in his eyes but I need to protect him from Sir better I hurt him then he does.

I get up and walk to my room when I hear him say

Christian Pov

Your right, I wasn't there. I'm sorry." She stops for a second and kept walking to her room.

" What do we do now Flynn ?

Flynn Pov

Be patient give her time. She needs to feel safe and loved. She needs to have a routine a normal teenager life. When Is she starting school?

Anastasia Pov

She starts school Monday it's a K-12 private school so small classes and she at least have Phoebe and Teddy there too. I signed her up for art as her elective I think that will be good. I'm concern she told us she was home schooled and hasn't really interacted with other kids her age."

Flynn Pov

Well it May take her time to adjust but interacting with her peers will be good for her, I will like to see her at the end of next week."
