Chapter 7
More and more guests arrive at the mansion. Belle comes escorted by Shawn along with Mimi and Rex. Shawn and Rex still not on the best of terms create an air of tension around the young couples but Shawn bites his tongue and shows more compassion towards Rex after seeing how badly he took Cassie's death.
"Look man, I want you to know, I am very sorry about your sister" Shawn says to
Rex.
"Whatever, Shawn just leave me alone; maybe her death is what will finally
convince you I am not the serial killer."
"Or maybe you killed her to protect yourself."
"Shawn, Rex stop it!" Belle interrupts as she pulls Shawn away from Rex who
was being restrained after Shawn's comment by a very flustered Mimi, "I can't
believe that you just said that to him Shawn Douglas Brady!"
Kate and Roman enter the party very much in love and seemingly oblivious to all around them.
"Look Roman, there's our son, do you think we should go over and.."
"NO! He made it very clear whose side he is on. He made his bed let him lie in
it."
John and Bo arrive with their wives at their side as the ladies go off to talk to their respective children John pulls Bo aside.
"I trust you have plenty of surveillance set up around here so nothing happens to
Roman tonight or anyone else for that matter."
"Yea," Bo replied, "This house has more guard on it than the White House right
now."
John nods his approval and goes over to join his wife.
Sami is walking outside the mansion putting her keys in her purse when she walks into a well defined chest.
"Dammit why don't you watch where your going!" Lucas says
"Dammit Lucas do you have to be such an ass?" Sami retorts.
"Let's just go to the party I need to see Victor about a proposition from Tony
anyway." Lucas says as he heads toward the door."
Sami follows furious at Lucas without understanding why.
After Sami enters the party she is amazed at seeing Brandon of all people in Victor's living room.
"Brandon, I love you I miss you I knew you would come back to me I knew it."
"Samantha I am not here for you, we are through get that through your head. You
signed the divorce papers get on with your life all ready."
Sami seemed as though she was ready to gear up for another attempt to beg Brandon to take her back when Lucas saw what was going on and quickly steered her away from her former love.
"Lucas Roberts! Get your hands off me I swear I'll kill you if you don't let me
go!"
"Real nice Sami maybe I should call your dad over and have him book you on the spot for threats against my life, why hell you are probably the serial killer."
Sami looks stunned for a moment and looks over Lucas's shoulder and then breaks into a run off the mansion's property crying into the night. Lucas hesitates for a moment but then decides to not go after her and goes to rejoin the party. When he turns around he encounters the scene that left Sami so stunned. There in the middle of the room engaged in a tight embrace is Brandon Walker and a lovely dark haired beauty who had just appeared seemingly out of nowhere at the party.
Philip arrives and surveys the room after giving his coat to Henderson and then goes to join Rex, Mimi, Shawn and Belle who are quietly talking in a corner.
"What's going on guys?"
"Nothing much, unless you count that," Belle says and points in the living room,
"I don't know what she thinks she is doing but if she hurts ANY member of my
family again, there will be hell to pay."
Philip follows Belle's outstretched hand and gasps at the sight in front of him.
