RECAP: "Jack! Stop," he continued to force himself on her, lifting her legs up as he grabbed a fistful of her hair, then took them to the bed, Schuyler struggled frightened, "your hurting me- Jack please stop!" she sobbed louder, "Please" she begged, to no avail…...
Schuyler thought for sure she was going to be raped, she suddenly got angry, using all her strength to shove him off of her, and then smacked him across the face,
Jack suddenly snapped out of it and frowned, looking to his hands, he felt bewildered, what just happened? He asked himself, it was like he blanked out for a minute,
"I'm so sorry- I don't know what came over me" he had tears in his eyes, and went to caress her cheek but was torn by her reaction to him- she flinched away in fear, with tears falling from her eyes, "I would never hurt you Schuyler- you know that right?"
"I don't know anymore- -"
"No love- I swear to you- I would never hurt you- I must've blanked out for a bit- maybe because I lost it over jealousy, when Martin kissed you I couldn't take it, and how your body reacted to him-" he sighed,
"You hurt me Jack" her lips quivered and her eyes shone more emotion then he could handle with so much guilt plaguing his mind, he hurt the love of his life, his love. His Schuyler, the only one who brings light to his world of darkness. How could someone so pure belong to someone of darkness like him, she was right about his nature coming out of him, the nature he knew Mimi was the only one who could accept him for who he is, as he looked into her beautiful blue orbs, he felt so unworthy and just let the tears in his green eyes slide down his face, then turned to leave her to her life without him bringing his destruction to it.
Schuyler however loves him so much that she realized she loves him in all that he is, she ran and stopped in front of the door, then reached up to wipe his tears away,
"that kind of behavior cant happen with me ever again- however I know you cant change who you are deep down inside, and I wouldn't even dream to ask that of you- what I'm trying to say is that I accept you in all that you are- because I love you for you Jack- and I know you would never hurt me- you have nothing to worry about Jack- you already won my heart- and I couldn't imagine my life without you."
"What if this is a sign to show me that I'm not the one for you?"
She frowned, and took a moment to think about what he said,
"Maybe your right"
"Don't listen to what I just said - we have two months till the bonding ceremonies take place,"
"Yes we do."
The two settled on those last words rather than talk about their reality to what's to come. Young love can be so strong when its innocent.
Kingsley Martin was just getting in, he wanted to talk to his wife about a compromising proposal- he wants them to take a chance with one another and get to know each other better- but when he got to her room, he changed his mind and called Mimi instead
Mimi and Kingsley's love has never waned for one another- it happens during every cycle. Whether or not she remembers their past or not. Its just how its always been.
As Mimi waited for Kingsley at his small rendezvous place for them alone, thanks to Jack's brilliant idea to maintain his and Schuyler's affair while back. They used the little apartment.
She was at a place Kingsley said he had purchased while back just for kicks. He has other places around the globe, however this one is for their conveniences now. The little make out scene between Jack and Schuyler did a number on his eagle, and he needed his pick me up- what better time for such a pleasure. The truth is, he is in love with Schuyler and wants out, because she made it clear the other night that she wanted nothing to do with him, and two months is a long time to wait for Schuyler's submission- he needed a cure and fast. Mimi and Kingsley never bedded one another in this cycle- but she usually submits around this time every cycle. He always had Jack's desire for the light to thanks for it.
Mimi waited and waited, out side of new York, a house on the edge of the city, someplace she knows Jack wouldn't even be caught seen any where near.
"Have you been here long princess?"
"Funny you should ask considering you were the one who called me for a rendezvous- and that," she suspired looking at her watch, "Was nearly an hour ago- unbelievable!" she huffed sitting up from the brick wall on the sides of the stair case,
"Forgive my tardiness- I had a little unexpected business to tend to" he went home to find his wife asleep with Jack Force, however nothing gave him the impression they done anything naughty though, he preferred not to share his women- he left them alone- didn't think it was necessary to cause ruckus for something he cant dispute on considering he's done his part of disrespecting Jack behind his back he still feels guilty about it-
NOT!
"Ok whatever you say Martin- now are you going to just make me stand outside in the cold- or invite in and tell me what the hell you want?" she snorted, he cocked his brow at her naïveté's, surely she knew exactly what he wanted from her bringing her to this more non-blue blood secluded venue,
Of course she knew, she just didn't like to subject her indiscretions so to speak, it made her feel horrible, when in reality has always been the more faithful one who put her obligation to the blue bloods above all things, though the familiars she would have and parade around Jack was all apart of an act to bring out his monster. The jealous monster that is, and boy did it always work, he always was one for rough make up sex.
"Come on sweetheart- and enough with the act, no blue bloods around this part of town- and trust me you wouldn't be so vague about this if you knew where Jack was last time I saw him-" oops he has to stop blabbering, it will get him in trouble. However- Mimi isn't so blind nor ignorant in this cycle, in fact she is well aware of what's going on between Jack and Schuyler , she even knew what happened between Sky and Jack during the house warming party, she doesn't mind- he will stop the affair as soon as the bond takes place, its how it always goes- after the bond he goes right to his original self. And forgets every one but her. Which is the part of her life she mostly adores the most.
"Don't worry Martin, I am privy to where my love is" she narrowed her gaze, now rolling her eyes at Kingsley's surprised face, "Just open the door now would you- these Chanel boots are killing me!" she grumbled tapping each foot at lease once, he gulped then opened the door, she was nervous indeed. It was weird how she felt going around behind Jack's back with Kingsley, but somehow they always manage to get over the weirdness.
At first they pretended to be interested in some epical romance flick, however both had entirely different things on their mind. Something not so innocent.
In Mimi's view Martin was behaving a bit unusual, something was awfully different about him, he wasn't even swooning over her, no drooling is applied either, she decided to get the fire place going, it was going to be a long night. She then removed her long trench coat, and hung it in the cloak closet, where he already hung his own as well in, she sighed checking in a mirror hanging in the hallway before she went back over there, she sighed feeling relieved that the atmosphere out side didn't ruin her flawless essence, though she had to laugh to her self at that notion altogether because Mimi has never looked horrible, even on her worst days that is-
When she walked in wearing her best jeans with a white camisole, that complimented her beautiful breast, which she knows he always had eyes for,
As soon as he caught view of them, she recognized he was none the less back to himself, the one she loved,
"Did I tell you how gorgeous you look today princess?" he purred, then patted the couch beside him, she joined him, about to sit on the couch when he abruptly pulled her to his lap then crashed his lips into hers.
All night long they made love- but all night long Kingsley Martin was thinking of one girl, and one girl alone, and that was Schuyler Van Alen Martin, his wife. His wife, who is in another mans arms, perhaps this is KARMA paying him back, for all those times he seduced Mimi when she was with Jack. Now he knows how it feels and to tell the truth he's not liking it too much. He's got to do something about it. No matter what he does though, he has to make Schuyler love him, because he cant be in unrequitedly in love with her forever.
Just when Schuyler woke up in the morning, she found that Jack slept over night, she also saw that her door was opened which she was certain that she closed, she then had the urge to go see if he was home.
She checked the whole house and there was no sign of Kingsley anywhere. She felt the impulse to call him and chide him on about where he was, and why hasn't he called her to tell her that he wont be in. then it occurred to her, that maybe he did find them together and got pissed off, left because he decided to say hell to his obligation to the blue bloods- she wouldn't blame him, because all she's done since she signed the marriage license certificate she's been pushing him away, because of her love for Jack- which is a bit conflicting at the moment, however she is happy with him. With Jack she knows who she is. With Kingsley, he brings a side out of her she doesn't know, a side she is unpredictable in- she didn't want their little make up session to end there, she actually wanted him completely, she was scared because she knew Kingsley was dangerous, not to her physically but emotionally. The intense sexual tension only enhanced within the short time they've come to know one another.
Jack and Schuyler went to school that morning awfully late. At lease they went, Kingsley and Mimi however didn't show at all. They were MIA.
Schuyler was really nervous because somehow word got around already regarding her marriage to Kingsley Martin. Girls were stealing glances at her calculatingly, scrutinizing her every which way, noticing she was made over completely, and envied her more when they couldn't find not one flaw about her. Bliss knew her sister wasn't liking the spotlight on her- she suspired as another girl stopped in the hallway and asked her if the rumors were true about her marrying Kingsley- her reply was,
"Why, what's it to you?" she didn't mean to sound so bleak, but who is this girl anyway? She doesn't even know her!
"Oh um I just wanted to congratulate you and Kingsley that's all, sorry if I've offended you in anyway" the girl acted as if she were talking to Mimi, nervous, and trying to not step on her toes because she is popular and has the power to squash her like a bug, socially speaking. Schuyler knew today was going to be a long day- she heard it all- some thought maybe she was knocked up by Kingsley, well at lease the humans thought that, some thought Schuyler and Kingsley made a cute couple, other thought Schuyler could do better.
"Van Alen- or should I call you Martin now?" Dylan crooned coming down the hall with her sister Bliss and Oliver tailing them closely,
"Cute Dylan," she frowned,
"What's up Sky? And where's your husband?" she shrugged,
"I don't know- he was gone when I woke up this morning"
"Interesting" said Oliver on to something, "So is Mimi" yup, definitely on to something.
"Well I've got to go guys, Jack wanted to meet up for lunch today" Oliver gasped,
"Are you seriously trying to anger the Regis and your grandfather into forcing you to bond a lot sooner than it is now?" he murmured intensely, the tone in his voice made her uneasy, she knew him well enough to know he wasn't messing around,
"No- its not what you think guys- we're just friends remember-" she didn't sound convincing enough to herself,
"They married you two to enable you from the equation that is everything Jack and Mimi- got it- you hanging around with Jack at school will cause a stir in the school then it will most certainly get to the Regis- Mimi and Kingsley missing school on the same day and you and Jack hanging around together at school around other people's watching eyes? They will think other wise and move up the bonding do you want that Schuyler?" he sighed watching her face turns pale, with grief,
"NO. but- I just wish I could live my life how I want to!" she cried, running away. She ran out of school and went home. Jack tried to call her but was sent straight to the voicemail. She wishes everything was normal, she wishes she were human. She also wishes her mom would wake up and tell her why this is happening to her.
Trinity was bored with shopping already, and she had nothing other to do than stay home and do nothing but watch soap operas, they always seem to make her feel better about her loveless marriage and estranged life. Dramatic acting, and scandals that make you cringe in your seat.
She abruptly jumped up startled when the cell phone began to ring, she then answered it and found out that her daughter missed school, Mimi. She didn't think anything of it until she mentioned it to Charles and gasped, skeptically,
"What a coincidence, Lawrence said he has on good authority that Kingsley Martin was absent as well- I better tell him about Mimi-" good thing he didn't know about Jack and Schuyler spending the night together because if he did, the bonding would most certainly be moved up to days.
"Father- what is it, I'm supposed to be in class right now?" Jack inquired,
"Jack, when was the last time you seen Mimi?" he sounded angry,
"Why- I'm sure she's fine father"
"That wasn't the question Benjamin-" he used his name,
"I think sometime yesterday why?"
"Do you know if she came home last night- your mother doesn't seem to know a thing?"
"I'm not sure- I mean I didn't know I had to monitor her every move father! Why is something wrong?"
"Yes something's wrong- and Lawrence is fuming- we've been trying to contact Mimi and Kingsley- who is also absent by the way, all day-" Jack knew where she was, not exactly coordinates, but he could guess who she was with. Kingsley- this is around the time during every cycle where she starts her little affair with Kingsley. And he doesn't mind anymore that is. She used to drive him crazy, mad even, she always knew how to bring out the worst in him.
"I'll try to call her, and let you know when I reach her."
"I expect nothing less of you" his father clicked,
Forbidden fruit: banned object of desire: something desired or pleasurable that somebody is not allowed to have or do, especially some form of sexual indulgence that is illegal or considered immoral[ the fruit, forbidden to Adam and Eve, of the tree of knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:17)]
Schuyler couldn't believe she was reading the definition of Forbidden fruit in her dictionary. She frowned obsessing about where Kingsley could be. She is the one who did this to them, they are already failing as a couple because she got tempted by the fruit of another !
"Humph!" she groaned as she sat upon his bed in his bedroom wondering if he will ever come back home again. Why does she care? And why does she feel regret when she thinks of Jack Force? Does she love him? She thought to herself, she started to get really conflicted when she thought about him sleeping with Mimi. She tried calling him like an obsessive wife looking for her husband. She started to get nosey and peep through his things to see what he has, and you wouldn't believe what this guy has in his closet. Kingsley Martin had a coin collection, comic book collection, he even had a refrigerator with blood bags stored along with a small mini bar with champagne glasses and Hennessey. He must like that pretty colored liquor, because he had a stock full of it. She learned this evening a lot about Kingsley just by looking into his things. She is entitled to do this right? She is his wife? Right? She went in his dresser , his sock drawer. She noted how he is a perfectionist, so she left nothing out of place, or at lease she hoped she didn't. she went to his restroom and once again was surprised and caught off guard with his neatness. Everything with labels, down to his laundry. Whites and colors already separated in a customary hamper, she was impressed, and one thing that always been her peeve about men was their natural untidiness, how they have a habit of leaving the toilet seat up. Eek! She hates that! But with Kingsley, well he had no flaw about his cleanliness. His bed was made, he has good taste in style, everything look on top of the line. She noted his obsession with having every single color of his favorite styles of shirts, even pink. He has sheet sets in a small cabinet in the restroom. He also likes art, and has a picture of angels in battle, one with an angel with platinum blond hair smiling in triumphant stepping over a beast, with her sword piercing the beasts throat, the angel had a label on her armor, she was wearing dark armor, with emerald eyes, Azrael- she gasped, Mimi. Of course its Mimi. Who else would it be? Its not like he wants Schuyler anyway- she really was oblivious to his feelings for her.
Kingsley Martin must admit, he didn't see this coming- did he? As he looked at the fuming blonde haired beauty- he thought to him self- Nope. Certainly didn't see this coming. Almost day in a half of making fantastic love with Mimi- everything was so blissful as you could've imagine, for Kingsley it was the best sex ever, but wasn't it always the best sex when she finally gave in to him, every cycle for her at lease.
She groaned rushing to put her clothes on, while glaring at him maliciously, Kingsley still lolled back on the bed baffled about the transpiring inevitable,
She rolled her eyes as she called a cab to pick her up, then she finally narrowed her gaze after that phone call,
"How could you be so cruel Kingsley?" her dark gaze suddenly went faint and she suspired and frowned, with tears sliding down her eyes, Kingsley Martin hated to see her cry like this,
"Don't go and do that now-" he hated when he was responsible for the tears even more, "I honestly don't understand what happened - Mimi be reasonable princess- this has never happened before-"
"Just- STOP! Ok. Shut up- I'm almost ready, then I'll leave you forever to your little half breed abomination! You know what I cant understand is how first Jack is enticed by that little disgrace home wrecker- and now you? I cant believe this crap! What's wrong with me? Why her and not me? I'm beautiful, I'm fucking amazingly gorgeous and, and everyone loves me?" Kingsley hasn't seen her this worked up since the day of the supposed, bonding ceremony, when he was nearly trapped in hell,
the woman is one tough individual, it was almost like a miracle before your eyes when getting to see infamous Mimi cry. Usually you find your self wondering if there really is a real person in there, under all that ulterior layered of solid steel. However when it came to Jack and Kingsley- they are the ones who has effected her this way ever. She is not one for emotional expressions. But she was here sobbing,
"I'm sorry. I don't see what the big deal is here"
She cackled, "You cant possibly be serious, are you though?" she was conflicting to watch, and he was confused as the look upon her face was mixed with a sadistic gleam. She was enjoying this now wearing a smile,
"Princess, you know I pined for you every cycle- we have centuries of history and -" she threw a lamp at him as the cab driver honked at her. Good thing he caught it,
"And just so we're clear- I hate you and wish I could be the one who gets to toss your abomination ass in the fire pits of hell! You have no idea how sorry your going be Kingsley Martin!"
"Mimi wait- your being unreasonable!"
"Oh- now you get my name right?" yup she was indeed his death. She slammed the door. And then left.
"I just had to say Schuyler's name during our last and final session of sex! Christ this couldn't get any worst" apparently he spoke too soon as he read his missed messages from Charles and Lawrence, and he gasped, his wife. She actually cares enough to call him?
Her text messages were very resourceful- she urged him to come home ASAP. And that they are going to have to make this up if they want it work. Because Charles and Lawrence are suspecting him and Mimi are seeing each other secretly. She is willing to make this marriage look authentic. And that they should do everything it takes to accomplish such a task. He smiled to himself thinking how understanding she is. He decided to call Lawrence first-
"Hello?"
"Van Alen its Kingsley Martin- before you say anything- I promise Mimi and I are no longer engaging ourselves into anything forbidden- and that Schuyler and I decided to take our marriage up an notch, by making it official in the public eye starting tomorrow-"
"Well, I must say I'm surprised by your sudden change of heart- last time we spoke you and Schuyler were so reluctant to comply with our demands- however I'm glad to hear this good news- I must confess I suspected that you and Mimi were long gone, never to be seen or found again, breaking the bonds causing havoc"
"Not like that at all Regis- I assure you- that I may be enamored by your granddaughter yet- it was however inevitable"
Lawrence smiled, great news indeed. Perhaps the little get away had to happen for him to come to his senses. And it seems he has. Lets hope this is sincere.
"I suppose there isn't furthermore to discuss- I'll see to it that I clear your names with the council and Charles Force as well."
"Thank you sir"
"Your most welcomed- considering you are now apart of the family" Kingsley felt relieved, now to get home to his wife. Not without a special gift for her first.
He decided to get her something to wear for him, considering she takes his advice to consideration, and he can say that he can admire that quality about her. He bought her a Kelly purse. Alligator skin. He also bought half of Victoria's secret lingerie store. Why he did that? He got inspired. To bring some more spice in their relationship. Though he knew that Schuyler wearing the clothes she bought recently was enough spice for their relationship as it is, however she was the reluctant bride. They didn't even exchange vows, they just signed those stupid marriage license. No wonder she didn't feel swept off her feet, he wasn't making her feel special with all his rude implies to improve her appearances,
When he got home it was suspiciously gloomy, and could hear shuffling around up stairs, he ran up stairs with all his VS shopping bags, he went to Schuyler's room first, she was no where in sight, then he heard something across the way coming from his room so he hurried to find a really anxious Schuyler scoping through his things,
"Find anything that piques your interest Nancy Drew?" Schuyler froze in spot, gasping, her back to him, his voice sent chills down her spine, she was browsing through his porn stash that was under his bed in a long wide wooden compartment box, she was so deep into the article about which sex positions are efficiently effective to please him. And about what are the biggest turn offs for men, that women seem to have a habit of doing. She gulped flushing red to the cheeks- he came back! She thought to herself.
"Interest is an understatement Martin" she couldn't believe she just flirted with him.
