Summary: Kathryn strikes back at those who have hurt her.
Chapter 15: Poetic Justice
"Have you realized your mistake and decided to come back to me?"
Kathryn looked over at Christian with disgust and loathing. Staring at his superior grin she couldn't for the life of her remember what attracted her to him in the first place. Smiling back at him coldly she said "no you dumb prick I came here to give you a warning."
His expression fell at the insult and he snickered "you're going to warn me? This should be amusing."
Kathryn only nodded then glanced over at the muscular bodyguard to her right. "Tony can you give us a moment to talk privately?"
Tony glanced at Christian who gave him a nod signaling it was ok. As soon as he closed the door Kathryn got up and sat next to Christian all the while wearing her sleek smile. She knew he was watching her intently but at the same time she also knew how aroused he got with her being so close to him. With her eyes firmly locked on his Kathryn let her hand glide up his pant leg and rest in his crotch. Slowly his smile widened as he whispered "so is this how you're going to teach me a lesson?"
Kathryn leaned up until their lips were almost touching "un huh." Christian was so distracted by her mouth that he didn't notice when her small hand snuck into his jacket and pulled out his gun. He did notice though when he felt her jab it into his dick. "That's exactly what I'm going to do" she told him with a smile.
"What the fuck?"
"I told you I have a warning for you and a couple requests and you're going to do everyone of them you know why?"
He looked down at the gun and by the look in his eyes she knew he was trying to remain calm. "I'm guessing if I don't you're going to blow my dick off?"
Kathryn let her finger gently caress the trigger "well yes that but I was referring to all the information I have on you."
"What? What are you talking about?"
"Oh come on Christian you're smarter than that. What do you think I'm talking about? All that time together you think I remained completely clueless about your business? Oh baby you know me better than that."
He was getting angry now "you god damn bitch what do you know?"
"Plenty" she said jabbing the gun at him harder. "And watch your language I'm a lady remember. Now while you were off playing with your boats or running off shooting people I kept myself busy going through your desk. I always knew you were a dangerous man so I thought it best that I have a little insurance on you in case you ever got out of line." She sighed almost sadly "I never really thought I would need it but then you went and shot Sebastian..." At the thought Kathryn pressed the gun to him even harder "you know he's the only person I've ever truly cared about. My parents were a joke and every boyfriend including you was a miserable mistake. No Sebastian was the only one I never had to pretend with...and you almost took him away from me. Lucky for you he survived because if he didn't I would of had to go talk to those nice FBI agents who called me this morning."
Kathryn smiled at the flicker of fear that passed through his eyes "the feds called you?"
She nodded "yep. They wanted to know if I had an info on you but I told them I would have to get back to them." Leaning up to his ear she whispered "076285632. Does that sound familiar? Just one of many numbers that I memorized not to mention wrote down."
Christian closed his eyes and shifted under the gun. "Ok what do you want?"
"Glad you asked. Well for starters you're going to stay the hell away from Sebastian. If I see you or any of your men anywhere near him I'll have your ass in jail so fast you won't know what hit you. You're going to leave him and me alone understand?"
"Fine" he grumbled "is that all?"
Kathryn laughed harshly "hardly." Opening her purse she pulled out another copy of the photo of Annette and Gwendolyn. Dropping the picture in his lap she said "you see that women? Her name is Gwendolyn Jefferies she's a private investigator. I want you to find her and drop her off at my suite."
"Why?"
She jabbed him with the gun "none of your damn business. I want it done by this afternoon."
Groaning he asked "anything else?"
Kathryn tilted her head back in thought "hmm...I want the boat."
"What? No way!"
She rolled her eyes at him "oh what me you'll part with in a second but the boat heaven forbid. I want it no questions. Do we have a deal?"
He glanced over at her almost admiringly and asked "sure you want to waste yourself on Valmont?"
"Positive."
"All right then we have a deal"
Kathryn smiled as she pulled the gun away "good boy."
Straightening his suit he smiled confidently "I knew you would never shoot be Kat. Face it a part of you still cares."
Gun still in hand Kathryn started for the car door. Before exiting she turned to look at his smug expression. Without a second thought she aimed the gun at his lap and pulled the trigger. Immediately Christian yelled out in pain as he clutched himself.
"Wrong" she called out as she got out of the car.

Sebastian was dreaming of Kathryn. They were lying in bed together while she gently caressed his face. Suddenly he realized that it wasn't a dream someone was touching his face. Smiling with his eyes still closed Sebastian reached out and touched her hand. "Kathryn" her murmured. However as his eyes fluttered open he realized it wasn't her. Immediately his eyes shot open and he hissed "what the fuck do you want?"
Annette recoiled slightly alarmed and stuttered "I-I just came by to see you. How are you feeling Sebastian?"
"I'm fine" he replied coldly "feel free to leave now."
She shook her head at him "what happened to you? Why are you being like this?"
"Why do you think? After everything you've put me through you just expect me to forgive and forget?"
Not backing down she told him "that goes both ways Sebastian or have you forgotten how you slept with Kathryn behind my back then lied about it? I forgave you why can't you do the same for me?"
Part of Sebastian knew he was being unfair towards her but strangely he didn't care. He was the one lying in a hospital bed for crying out loud. He wasn't about to apologize for anything he had done. "Look Annette I'm sorry your feelings got hurt and you didn't get your dream wedding but I'm in love with someone else and you know that. You knew it when we were together but instead of releasing me from my guilt you just made it worse."
Her eyes welled up with tears "I thought it was just a fling. I thought you loved me."
"I did" he told her staring her in the eye "but I've always loved her."
Wiping her face she rolled her eyes at him and sighed "do you honestly think you'll be happy with her? Come on Sebastian look at everything she's done to you way before you ever met me. You told me yourself you were never happy until you met me."
"You're right but I never had what I do now with Kathryn."
She scoffed "you mean sex?"
Sebastian smiled faintly "well that and I understand her better now. We've both grown up Annette. I want to make a life with her and I don't want anyone fucking that up."
"Well said" a familiar voice purred.
Annette spun around and came face to face with Kathryn who was wearing a sleek black suit and a matching grin. She glared at her enemy once more before turning back to Sebastian. "Fine if that's what you want."
"That's what I want"
She nodded at him sadly "good bye Sebastian."
"Bye bye" Kathryn said mockingly as she passed by her. Once she was gone she sauntered into the room with a smile "well that was vile. How are you feeling?"
Sebastian eyed her curiously "fine. You know I'm amazed you could remain so calm around her after everything she's done to you."
Kathryn shrugged as she examined a greeting card resting on his bed side table. "It's nothing."
"Right, well Blaine also told me about her smacking you and blaming you for everything that happened. I half expected you to jump her but instead you barely acknowledge her presence. All of this has me wondering what exactly are you up to?"
She looked over at him with a wicked twinkle in her eye "my you're paranoid all of a sudden."
"Yeah well I know you remember? The girl I know isn't to good about letting things go so I'm going to ask you again and this time I want an answer. What are you up to?"
Her smile never faltering Kathryn took a seat on the bed beside him. She let her hand gently caress his chest as she explained "lets just say I'm taking care of things."
"Kathryn..."
"Look" her expression suddenly became serious "I am done with everyone screwing me over. Annette, Christian, you. Its time they pay for hurting me."
"Oh am I on your hit list too?"
Kathryn's smile returned as she leaned in and kissed him on the lips. "Maybe" she whispered.
Sebastian pulled away and told her sternly "I don't want you doing anything that's going to get you hurt."
She shrugged "it won't I know what I'm doing."
"Yeah well in case you've forgotten I'm in the hospital. These people you're fucking with are dangerous."
Kathryn smiled as she recalled her last meeting with Christian. "That's why you have to hit them where it hurts."
He rolled his eyes "no I don't want you doing anything."
"I think you don't want me hurting Dorothy." In a mocking voice she said "you still have feelings for her."
"I do not. I could care less what you do to Annette-"
"Good then it's settled."
"No it's not."
She smiled as she slowly began to unbutton her jacket to reveal that she wasn't wearing a bra underneath. "And you'll be stopping me how?"
Sebastian watched her intently "oh please do you really expect me to fall for this."
Kathryn let her hand come down and caress her breast. Tugging at her nipple she said "yes I do."
Watching her play with herself he could feel himself become hard. It had been far too long since he had been with her. However he wasn't about to give up without a fight. Where was the fun in that? Keeping a placid expression on his face he said "what you think touching yourself is going to make me change my mind? Think again sweetheart I'm a lot more...ohh god." Suddenly Kathryn's warm hand was wrapped around his hard cock.
"I just love hospital gowns. There so...open" she said giving him a gentle squeeze.
His jaw clenched as he muttered "this isn't fair. I'm an injured man I can't fight back."
"Oh boo hoo. Say Sebastian you look a little uncomfortable. Would you like me to help you out with that?"
"Some one might see"
Kathryn shrugged "then I guess they'll get one hell of a show. That is of course if you agree to let me handle Christian and Annette on my own."
He shook his head at her "I'm not going to let you...ahh!" he exclaimed when she bent down and flicked her tongue over his erection.
Turning her head to him she asked innocently "what was that?"
Sebastian laughed "you're evil you know that?"
"Yes and you love it. Now what's" lick "it" lick "going" lick "to" lick "be?"
At this point it was all he could do not to come in her face. He knew he would give into her he always did. Besides Kathryn would do what she wanted with or without his blessing. He should be happy she was even asking him in the first place. "Fine! Just be careful"
Her grin widened "oh I'll be gentle."
That wasn't what he meant but at the time he didn't care. His mind stopped to function properly as soon as he felt Kathryn's warm mouth encase his dick. Gently he caressed her hair as her head bobbed slightly and she purred. It had been far to long since he felt this good so he knew he was going to come any minute. "Oh baby I'm going to-"
"Ring...Ring...Ring..."
Kathryn immediately sat up and grabbed the cell phone from her jacket. "No, don't even think about it" Sebastian warned.
She smiled at him while licking her lips "it will only take a second." Holding the phone to her ear she said "hello."
"Your package had been delivered to your suite" a gruff voice said on the other end.
Kathryn smirked "good I'll be there shortly."
"Who was that?"
She turned back to Sebastian who looked rightfully pissed. "Everything is coming along just perfectly. You have nothing to worry about."
"Right" he said doubtfully "I don't suppose you're going to tell me what you're up to."
"You'll find out soon enough" letting her head bow down she asked "now where were we?"
* * * * * *
As the elevator doors opened Kathryn sprayed her mouth once more with bianca. Slipping it back into her clutch she smiled to herself. As much as she hated having to leave Sebastian behind it was necessary to secure their future. Besides they would have plenty of time for fun later.
Kathryn walked into her apartment to find Gwendolyn sitting on her plush sofa looking somewhat perturbed. Tony was sitting at the bar looking through the wall street journal. At her appearance he looked up "Mr. DeMille thought it was best that I stayed with her until you arrived."
"Thank you Tony. How is Christian?"
Her smile widened when she saw him shift uncomfortably "the doctor was able to relieve the bullet with little damage to his...un...groin."
"Remind him that next time he won't be as lucky. That will be all."
As Tony left Gwendolyn eyed Kathryn and mused "my you're a dangerous women to be around."
"You have no idea. I don't think we've been properly introduced. I'm Kathryn the person who's life you've been fucking with for the past few weeks."
Holding her head up confidently she remarked "I know who you are and I don't have to put up with this. I'm leaving."
As Gwendolyn started to get up Kathryn pushed her back down "I don't think so. It seems you and I have some unfinished business." Walking over to the bar she called out over her shoulder "and if you think about trying to leave I won't hesitate to have Tony put a bullet in your pretty little skull."
Gwendolyn turned around and looked at her "you would kill me just because I didn't do as you said?"
Kathryn smiled at the fear behind her nemesis's eyes "oh honey at this point I would probably kill you just for fun. Now sit your ass down."
Reluctantly she sat back down as Kathryn walked back over to her. "You know I don't understand you. Christian is the one who tried to kill Sebastian why are you bothering with me?" She smiled slightly "or don't you care about Sebastian?"
Kathryn's smile fell as she slowly approached Gwendolyn. Without a word she slapped her hard across the face making the beautiful blond stumble back. "Ok first thing if you ever talk about Sebastian or my relationship with him again I'll kill you myself and trust me I won't be as neat about it as Christian's men. Second don't worry about Christian he will pay in his own time."
"What do you want with me?"
She shrugged "oh relax you do as I say and you'll get out of this relatively unharmed. You see you're not my real target, Annette is."
Touching her cheek gently Gwendolyn mused "color me surprised. What do you want me to do?"
Finishing off her scotch Kathryn explained "well little Dorothy's about to suffer a big fall."
"What does that have to do with me?"
"You're going to make it happen."
She sighed "why me?"
"Call it poetic justice" Kathryn smiled "she used you to hurt me so I'm going to return the favor."
Gwendolyn seemed to be considering it as she studied Kathryn intently. "You already stole the man she loves. Haven't you hurt her enough?"
She smirked "oh not nearly enough. Now are you going to do as I say or do I have to call Tony back in here?"
"All right what do you want me to do?"
