Dear readers,

Okay people I'm so sorry for not updating, exams have been stressing me out, and I had no time, plus there was a fire near my house and the phone lines were damaged meaning that I couldn't log on to the internet and post this chapter, sorry again, a new character is introduced in this chapter and I must say he's pretty okay or so I think, please review me and tell me with whom would you like Serena to end up with, Kenneth or Darien, now wait, before you jump to conclusions, read this chapter and consider, after all both guys are pretty hot and there will be more insight on Kenneth in the next chapters and the rest of the story, anyways this is a warning if you are going to send me reviews saying DARIEN/SERENA only, then I will simply ignore them, because I really need to know whether you like this story or not, and when I asked this question in my other story the reviews only said DARIEN/SERENA it was a real disappointment 'cause if you guys really like my story a few sentences of compliments would not hurt. If anyone wishes leave your e-mail address and I will put you on my mailing list and every time a new chapter is out I will e-mail you so you will know. Please don't be very hard on me this is my second fic and if I get no reviews then no more story, since no reviews means nobody reads it or wants to read it.

Okay enough chatter now to the next chapter.

By the way LEMON ALERT (P.S. not between Darien and Serena, though that WILL come later.)



THANX YA'LL

Chapter 4: Forbidden Desire

Darien watched Serena cautiously, then in a flash he was in front of her, he grabbed her shoulders and asked painfully "Why didn't you tell me, damn it, I had every right to know. Why Serena?" she only stared at him and whispered "Because I would only tie you down to me and we both would live unhappy lives Darien. It wasn't fair for you, me or the twins." Darien loosened his grip on her and said, "Yeah but they are my children also, and I'm their father. Jesus, can't you see what you did to them? To me?"

Serena started shaking but Darien paid no mind, he was the one who should be angry and pained, not her, she had pulled him away from even leading a family life, from knowing his sons, but this would be no more, he wanted a part of it, he wanted to at least get to know Alan and Michael.

"Serena I want to spend time with my sons" he said firmly, that clearly got her attention, "No you won't, I raised them and they're staying with me alone" she said frostily, Darien smiled dryly and said "Yes well, I wonder what the authorities have to say about it huh?" He felt her stiffen at this comment, Darien was hinting a court battle, and that wasn't good, not at all, the boys weren't ready for this and it would send the Castleground name to all the newspapers and magazines, not to mention Darien's name.

Serena gathered all the courage she had left and asked "Then what will we do if I allow you to spend time with them" Darien smiled victoriously and said "You WILL allow me to spend time with them, and when I want to I will give you a call. Until then dearest, goodbye" he spun on his heel and walked out of the room.

Serena was furious, the arrogant bastard, he always got what he wanted, how dare he. She sank into the plush sofa and closed her eyes as a headache made its way to her brain.

Unknown to her a figure had been hidden in the shadows watching the curious exchange between her daughter and the handsome raven haired man, her golden eyes flashed maliciously and she stepped out of the darkness Eva Castleground smiled cruelly, this was indeed fascinating.

Darien Shields flung the keys onto the glass coffee table of his penthouse apartment and ran a hand through his disheveled raven hair he didn't even bother to turn on the lights, Serena was even more beautiful every time he saw her, he wanted her and he also wanted his sons, damn what the hell was happening to him recently, Serena was always finding a way to his mind, he remembered the night they had spent together and sighed he missed her so much, yet there was another feeling deep inside him he was afraid to even touch it would only bring problems to him and Serena, still he wanted Serena so much, he wanted her next to him on a bed and moaning his name.

Just when he was about to go to his bedroom the phone rang, Darien cursed under his breath and took up the receiver. "Hello?—father?—fine and you—no—oh yes how could I forget the Spring Party at the California ranch--- Yes of course I'll be there—in about two or three days---yes no problem--- I'll bring some unexpected visitors my friend and my new found sons---we'll just wait and find out---yeah you too take care bye." Darien put the receiver back into it's cradle as a devilish smile found it's way to his lips, he wondered how Serena would react if he told her he wanted to take the twins to a party at his father's ranch in California, yes she would blow up, she would also want to come to protect the twins, he would have both Serena and his sons in one package, and they would be together for two weeks, but he would also need to take his personal secretary what was her name? Oh yes Saori, that wouldn't be a problem, the only thing needed was to put the plan into action tomorrow. He began unbuttoning his Armani jacket as he headed for his room.

Saori blew perfect rings of smoke from her sensuous red mouth; she surveyed the misty bar, so what? This was a shameful place it wasn't like she had the kind of money that bitch Serena Castleground had, she took a swig of the cheap scotch and put out the cigarette, her green eyes scanned the room, she wondered which of these good for nothing men she would fuck tonight. It really didn't matter all she wanted was a man in her bed, she really wanted Darien, but with him she had to take it slow, she had to make him fall for her, hard and then she would marry him and she would lead the life of the rich and famous and live in the land of silk and money. She would be envied by every woman and she would have Darien's strong body and the pleasure it could bring every night, the thought of her and Darien in bed together naked and fucking was too much, her breathing quickened and she felt a familiar tingling between her legs, she had to find a man, any man, fast.

Serena awoke and sat up groggily, rubbing her sore neck from the uncomfortable night on the sofa, she stood up and groped the arm chair for support she had a feeling that today something was going to happen, what more could happen, she wondered, all her fears had been made reality now she would have to let Darien spent time with the twins, she hated the idea, but it was a hundred times better than a goddamn court battle, so she had to bear it, and there was more torture, Darien looked better than ever, he was too handsome, no gorgeous for his own good, no woman could say no when she looked into those midnight eyes of his, and no woman wouldn't tremble at the sight of his lean masculine body, Serena was going to need some serious self control and she would have to keep her hormones in check Darien was simply irresistible, damn.

Darien Shields looked out of his office window into the busy streets, he felt wonderful and full of energy, the intercom buzzed and Saori stepped into the office wearing a cream two piece Prada business suit, her chestnut hair loose and her green eyes bright and alert, Saori was indeed beautiful. Darien motioned for Saori to sit in one of the leather armchairs, she did so gracefully and stared at him, "Sir you called?" she asked sweetly, Darien nodded and said "Saori I will be leaving for two weeks to my father's ranch in California for the annual Spring party that is held there, I want you to come with me for I will also have to do some paper work there also, since you are my personal secretary. Three more people will come along but I just wanted to inform you. Thank you, you are now dismissed." Darien waved his hand and resumed to his paperwork not even giving Saori a second glance, he took up the phone and asked to be contacted with the Castleground mansion. Saori stood up with a tight- lipped smile on her lips and strode out of the expensively furnished office, her hand balled into fists, her green eyes flashing at Darien's indifference of her presence, but soon he would be eating out of the palm of her hands, two weeks alone with him should be more than enough, she would have him wrapped around her little finger, she smiled slowly, as her stride gained a new purpose, besides the guy from the bar had satisfied her greatly last night, she should be in high spirits, though Darien would be even more than satisfying, she shivered at the erotic fantasy, though tonight she would go to a bar for rich people and would get a different guy one with money and looks.

Serena slammed the receiver down forcefully, how dare he? She had just finished speaking to Darien, wanted to meet her at Le Terrell on Melrose Avenue, she was fuming, she had agreed for Darien to spend time with the twins but not with HER.

She marched up to her bedroom to change; Darien was going to get a piece of her mind.

Darien stared a the entrance of Le Terrell, Serena should be coming in at any minute, he took a sip of the Dom Perignon champagne and smiled as he saw all heads turn toward the door, so? He mused she had finally arrived. Serena was walking gracefully towards his table, she had on a light yellow Carolina Herrera sundress that clung to her luscious curves and slim waist, her hips swished from side to side as she moved, and her long shapely legs made a man think of heaven, she wore a single strand on pearls contrasting with her alabaster flawless skin and white Gucci shoes to match the pearls, her silvery-blonde hair reaching her waist, all the men in the room were in a trance and the women shot her glares, though she brushed them all off elegantly.

Serena reached his reserved table Darien stood and pulled out a chair for her, she nodded and sat down and flipped her long blonde hair, only Darien could see the fury in her clear blue orbs, though he only smiled and lifted the glass "Cheers" he murmured. Serena glared at him and took up her own glass and stared at it intently as if wondering if she should drink or throw the liquid in his face, eventually she chose the safer option and drank slowly, surveying him from the rim of the glass. Darien grinned and said "You must be wondering why I wanted you here, well I received a phone call from my father and he is inviting me to go to his ranch in California, I want to bring the twins there with me of course, so I just wanted to let you know I'm taking them with me." Serena stared at him in utter astonishment, but soon her expression was changed to one of rage, "Just like that?" she hissed "You didn't even speak to me about it Darien, don't I have a say in this matter. Damn you bastard, I'm their mother where they go, I go is that understood?"

Darien nodded a small smile on his lips and growing, he said calmly "Why yes of course, so may I take it as you would like to come along also?" Serena clutched the champagne glass tightly, "Yes I will" she responded hotly, Darien flashed her his heartbreaking smile and lifted his glass once again, it took Serena a minute to realize Darien's trap, he had gotten her angry and when she was angry she didn't think and said things she regretted, this was the case, she had been angry enough to accept Darien's invitation, and Darien knew she would never go back on her word, he had tricked her and cleverly.

Darien watched in amusement as different emotions were displaced on her beautiful face, so, she understood what he had just done, now she would have to come with him and the twins to the California ranch. Serena's mouth opened and then closed, Darien grinned at her frustration, Serena took a deep breath and looked him straight in the eye, Darien's amusement disappeared and his eyes darkened with desire, though Serena was too irritated to even notice, "You won this time Darien," she said placidly "Yes, the twins and I will go with you, just call me later and we will get ready for the journey, you say it is a party or feast, Darien you may have won the battle but not the war."

Serena stood up rigidly, turned and strode out of the restaurant her head high and with the same elegance she had entered with she left. Darien stared after her retreating form and chuckled softly, she was one hell of a woman, and beautiful to add, he would spend two weeks with his sons and with her, it was going to be interesting to have a fiery woman contradicting your every move or idea, his eyes twinkled in merriment at the thought.

Eva Castleground sat in the terrace drinking coffee and eating English cream clotted cones, her golden eyes scrutinized the vast manicured lawns, it was getting late, she ought to go back in, her disease wouldn't allow her much time outside, and with the therapy, her hair was falling off like rain, the sun was setting now, she stood up and smoothed out the creases of the Jeanne Paul dress, her eyes caught a figure moving towards her, unmistakably Serena, and by the way Serena was walking she was very, very angry, Eva had every cause to believe that a certain raven haired man was the cause.

Serena came up to where Eva was, she looked flustered and her eyes held such rage that they seemed to spit fire, Serena said shaking with effort, "Mother the twins and I will be going to ranch in California, I assume you must come with us because of your health I must keep an eye on you, we'll leave tomorrow, I hope you join us." Eva stared at Serena and smiled coldly "Why yes, of course I'll go, though I won't be able to leave tomorrow but in five days because of my therapy darling, but I will certainly be there." Serena nodded and said "Very well, that's understood, goodnight mother," with those words she marched into the house to check on the twins. Eva sank back into the chair and smiled, things were indeed getting interesting.

Saori Kensington sat at the corner table of Polo Lounge, a bar off Finistere Avenue, the room was smoky and smelled of money and power, this place was different, rich men and women came here to chat and then to fuck afterwards in a hotel room, what she had learned of her experience was that rich men never took their 'dates' to their own house to have sex, they went to expensive and luxurious hotels instead. A man entered, Saori felt the air being knocked out of her, the man had thick black hair and beautiful silver eyes, he was tall and with broad shoulders dressed in an impeccable pin striped Armani suit, the suit only added elegance though when he moved one could see that well sculpted muscles were underneath it, this man was beautiful and perfect in every way, the only man she had had this wanting and yearning for was Darien, but this guy had everything to match Darien in both looks and money, she saw how the men in the bar looked at him in respect and how the women pressed their legs tightly together to keep them selves from begging him to take them to bed, this was the same effect that Darien had on women, though this time she couldn't tell which of the two men looked better, for they both were strikingly handsome. The man caught her staring at him and smiled, she smiled back at him, he nodded and walked towards her table, well maybe tonight she would have a taste of what kind of pleasure she could have with Darien if she slept with this hunk, she was going to enjoy this.

He hung up the phone with a soft click, so, the old man was going to have the Spring party this year after all, well, this time it was different it seemed that his dear brother would bring along Serena Castleground, she was a beautiful woman to match her character, he lit a cigar and looked around the dark room, his silver eyes hazy with lack of sleep, the nude woman beside him stirred in her sleep, snoring softly, she mumbled something and resumed sleeping quietly, he smiled, yes, he could have any woman he wished he had the looks and money to go with it too, women fell at his feet to worship him and he didn't blame them, but he would never settle down, he had and would love one woman only, and that woman hadn't even noticed and then when he decided to show her how much he loved her she ran away pregnant with his brother's twins. But this time it would be very different, this time he wanted Serena for himself, he was no longer the puny boy beside his handsome brother, now he had the looks and power to match his brother, Serena was the only woman he would ever love, and he'd be damned if he at least didn't try, so what if he was a womanizer, Darien was one too, but if Serena accepted him as her husband or lover he would be faithful to her and only her, he rested his head against the bed post and sighed "Serena" he whispered into the darkness, the name escaped his lips lovingly, he had said that name so many times before, these women didn't know that when he made love to them he would see Serena's face instead, and that every time before he fell asleep he would call her name, Darien had used Serena and gotten her pregnant but he could have done better if only Serena had taken her eyes off Darien and looked at him for a minute, he would give her endless love and at night passion she could only dream of, he felt himself harden as he thought of Serena's bare body molded to his on a bed.

The woman beside him moved again, but this time closer to him, he smiled again and pulled her to him and captured one of her full breasts greedily, he heard her gasp, turning him on even more, he sucked onto the other nipple and rammed his hand between her thighs, she was wet already, he inserted a finger, then another, the pressure and tempo increased, the woman was breathing raggedly already, her chest heaving, he kissed her lips bruising them but she didn't mind her arms went around him and she pumped her hips towards his fingers, juices flowing rapidly, he placed wet kisses on her neck and she moaned, he positioned himself between her thighs, she felt his strength, he entered her with a powerful thrust, she panted and arched her neck, he began slamming into her rapidly his breath ragged his muscles rippled, he crashed his mouth to hers, the speed increased and now she was screaming out his name, he grunted and they both climaxed in an explosion of ardor, he collapsed on top of her panting, he rolled off her and turned his back to her. What was the name of this woman again? Ah yes Kaori no Saori, she was good in bed, though he thought Serena would be even better, no matter how many women he had been with he wanted Serena, he always would. The Saori woman had fallen asleep again.

"Serena" the name escaped his lips once again as he fell into a lustful sleep, Kenneth Shields fell asleep dreaming of an untouchable woman, a woman he wanted so much that he ached, he needed Serena Castleground, for it had been too long. The Spring party was going to be interesting this year, for two brothers would be playing for the heart of one woman.
