Chapter 11

This chapter was written by Melissa.

Helena froze in her tracks, she couldn't believe that Spinelli was there. Of all of her great adversaries, he was the one that she feared the most, because she knew in her heart of hearts that she could never hurt him. They shared a connection that she had kept hidden for many years, and if anyone ever found out the truth it would be her undoing.

"You're in trouble now, my friend Spinelli won't rest until we all are saved," Jason gloated as he smiled at Helena.

"Take them Spinelli, I mean you and yours no harm," Helena said and then she quickly retreated from the room.

"That was easy," Spinelli said as he helped Jason and the brilliant Doctor out of the dark room.

"Yeah, too easy," Robin said suspiciously. Something wasn't right about Helena's retreat, and she would figure it out.

XOXOXO

"Helena?" Anna whispered as she looked at her troubled friend.

"Yes, Anna dear, it's not polite to stare, but maybe you are just captivated by my overwhelming beauty.

"I...I just think that we need to get you out of here and to someplace nice that you can rest," Robert said.

"I'm not tired, I just woke up. It's Luke's time to sleep and my time to play. Let's dance Robert," Luke said as he stood up and grabbed his friend's hand and began to twirl him around much to his and Anna's shock and dismay.

XOXOXO

"No, Todd and I had fun, but we were never in love. Truthfully I gave my heart away years ago and I've never been able to love anyone the same since then," Carly answered honestly.

"Who is this man? Anyone I know?" A.J. asked as he looked at Carly.

"I'll give you a hint, he's in this room now."

"That's who I thought it was," A.J. said as he kissed Carly passionately.

XOXOXO

"Todd?" Marty questioned as she was led to a room where she was face to face with a man that looked just like Todd, minus his scar that haunted them both.

"No, I am not Todd, I am much more handsome than that fool. My name is Franco, Todd and Victor's triplet."

"It can't be."

"But, yet it is. Todd and Victor have both had a taste of your love and they both have become obsessed in loving you. Do you think that it runs in the family?" Franco asked as he looked at his mother.

"Only one way to find out son, but you remember the conditions for playing with Marty, don't you?" Irene asked as she looked at Franco.

"Yes, I can do anything I want with her except filling her up with my special sauce," Franco repeated for his mother's benefit.

"Excellent, I know how much you enjoy your privacy, so I'll leave you to your training," Irene said as she left the room.

"Now, that my meddlesome bitch of a mother is gone. We can play a game...I love games," Franco said as he smirked at Marty.

"What...what kind of game?" Marty asked as she backed away from him in fear.

"Relax Marty, I'm not going to do anything with you that you don't want to do. I'm not a rapist like that brother of mine," Franco said as he took a step towards her.

"What is the game?" Marty asked.

"I don't like rules, in fact I hate them and I really hate that my mother is trying to impose her tedious rules on our relationship just because she favors Victor. She wants Victor to be the father of your child, but I think that it would be so much more interesting if there was more than one possibility."

"I thought that you weren't going to force me to-"

"I'm not, that's where the game gets interesting. Everything that happens from here on out will be your choice. If you decide to sleep with me and let me fill you up with my special sauce, then I will give you a present."

"Are you insane? The answer is no."

"But you haven't even heard what the present is. If you decide to sleep with me, I will help you and one other person escape from my mother's compound. So what do you say? Will you sleep with me?" Franco asked as he looked at Marty.

XOXOXO

Helena was so lost in her own thoughts that she didn't see that Robin, Jason and Spinelli were catching up to her. She only had one thing on her mind and that was the baby boy who wasn't a baby any longer. She couldn't believe that Fate had brought him back to her, here of all places where she had first let him go.

"You found him a good home?" She asked as she held him close to her heart.

"The very best for your prince. Are you sure you don't want to keep him?" Heather Webber asked.

"I want to, but I can't. If Mikkos ever found out that I was unfaithful with Luke Spencer of all people, he would-"

"What? Kill you?" Heather asked.

"No, much worse, he would kill my son, slit his throat right in front of me, my indiscretions would remain my burden, he would make me suffer in private, rape me every night, a lifetime of private mourning for my child...that would be my punishment," Helena whispered as a tear slid down her cheek.

"Mikkos couldn't possibly-"

"He already has. He murdered my first born child right in front of me, and that was only when he suspected that I had been unfaithful, it was all in his head, but that didn't matter, he made me pay just the same. I won't let him take this child away from me, no one can know, whatever, you have heard about Mikkos, he is a thousand times worse."

"Why don't you leave him?"

"And let him know that he has won? Never...My power is growing while I play his loving, devoted wife while I get my own revenge and take everything he owns away from him. You'll see Heather, one day, I will hold all the power, I will be the one that is feared, I will be the Queen of the Cassadines."

"I won't tell anybody, I'll take this secret to my grave," Heather whispered as she took the baby out of Helena's arms.

"What about Luke?"

"Luke doesn't even remember, he was very drunk and very angry, he thought that he had lost everything because of my husband, he can be quite passionate when he's angry."

"Yes, I remember that about him," Heather said as she left with the baby.

"Helena took his baby blanket and locked it up tight in her box of secrets as Heather left through the secret tunnel ways.

Helena pulled out her box of secrets and gasped as she opened it up. Inside was his baby blanket along with the remains of her first born. She hadn't thought about them in all these years, because it hurt too much, she couldn't allow herself to feel the pain instead she had hardened her heart and thrown herself into revenge. Seeing Spinelli had changed everything, she couldn't keep the emotion from breaking through her icy exterior.

"Oh...Damian, I'm so sorry I had to let you go, I had to let you both go," she wept as Robin, Jason and Spinelli heard everything from the shadows.

XOXOXO

"Yes, I'll sleep with you," Marty whispered as she would do anything to get her child out of this hell hole.

"But what about Todd?" Franco asked.

"What about him?"

"Well, you might be pregnant with Victor's baby and after we do the nasty, then it would increase the odds that you might have my baby, but what about my other brother? I don't want Todd to be left out of our little game."

"What do you want me to do?" Marty asked.

"Mother was kind enough to extract a sample from Todd years ago, and I just happen to have that sample. Like I said Marty, everything that happens tonight is up to you. If you let me fill you up with my brother's sample as well as my own then I'll help you leave with two people."

"I'll do it," Marty agreed.

"Excellent," Franco agreed as he pulled Marty into a passionate kiss.

Kissing her was nothing like Franco had ever experienced before. He had been with other woman before, but this, she was different. His life had always been filled with dark, but this moment there was light and he wanted to savor that feeling for as long as possible.

Their clothes were discarded as he continued to kiss her, her moans of pleasure filled him with a happiness that he had never known before. He felt like he was soaking his entire soul into light and happiness for the first time as they became one. He didn't think that love existed, but now he knew that it did, there was no doubt about it, he was in love with this creature of light who had taken his heart and soul and given him so many new feelings and emotions in exchange.

"Spinelli don't," Robin whispered, but it was too late. Spinelli had stepped out of the shadows and was now face to face with Helena.

"Damian," Helena whispered.

"That is my name, although I go by Spinelli or Jackyll to my family and friends. We were on our way out, to escape this horrible fortress when we heard you, the queen of ice, apologizing for giving up someone by the name of Damian. Damian is a rather odd name, the Jackyll has never known anyone else with that name. Then there's the irrefutable fact that the Jackyll was found outside of a church as a small baby. Is it possible that I, the Jackyll is the same Damian that the Queen of ice speaks of."

"Spinelli, let's get out of here before she kills you," Jason said as he picked up the dagger off of the desk and held it in his hands.

"You can put that down Mr. Morgan, I am no threat and could never hurt him."

"Why? Are you the Jackyll's birth mother?" Spinelli asked.

XOXOXO

"Don't be shy, give me a kiss. You know that my needs won't be denied," Luke whispered seductively as he tried to kiss Robert.

"Anna, you have to help me," Robert cried out as he tried to squirm out of Luke's arms.

"Robert, just give me a minute," Anna said as she reached into her bag and pulled out a needle.

"I don't have a minute love," Robert cried out just as Luke's lips landed on his.

Anna used the distraction and pushed the needle into Luke's arm.

"Ouch," Luke cried out and then he fell to the ground.

"What did you give him?" Robert asked.

"A sedative to help him sleep while we get him out of here."

"And just how are we going to do that? I'm not carrying him."

"I don't know yet, but we'll think of something." Anna said as she looked around for a plan.

XOXOXO

"I...I...I love you," Franco whispered in Marty's ear as he reached his climax.

"Love? We're complete strangers, we barely know one another," Marty whispered as Franco laid his head down on her chest.

"You're right, it's crazy and yet, it's true. I've never felt this way before, my life has been consumed with darkness, but this moment has changed everything for me."

"Possibly for me too. I could be pregnant with your child. I slept with you...I completed my part of the deal, will you help me, and Charlotte to escape?"

"Yes I will honor my part and so much more Marty. Promise me that you will wait right here for me, while I deal with my insane mother. When I get back then I promise that your nightmare will be over," Franco said as he kissed her.
