"No she's sleeping, well of course I don't want her to know about it, do you think I'm stupid!" Lincoln called into his phone from outside Kathryn's room at the Valmont house.

Kathryn was awake and had just heard his last sentence. She was puzzled and had no idea what he was on about. What didn't she know that he didn't want her to know? Lincoln walked in and found her sitting up looking at him.

"Good morning sweetie"

"What don't I know?"

"Excuse me?"

"You said on your phone you didn't want me to know about it? About what exactly didn't you want me to know about?"

Lincoln stood there for a few seconds; he seriously had no idea what to tell her. He sure couldn't tell her the truth and he had no lie stored up because he hadn't planned on her hearing the phone call, he had thought she was sleeping.

"A surprise at out anniversary party"

"And you seriously think I'm going to celebrate our anniversary after I caught you in bed with my whore of a mother?"

"Kathryn honey don't be like that, it was an accident"

"An accident that I saw you or that you accidentally slipped into bed with my mother?"

He didn't know what to say. Of course it wasn't an accident that he was in bed with her mother but it was an accident that she had caught them. "I…um"

"Just leave Lincoln"

"Kathryn babe please come home"

"My home is here, I'll be speaking to my lawyers today"

"Don't over react, we can work this out"

"I don't want to work things out with someone who is going to screw around with my mother behind my back"

"Like your not screwing Sebastian's behind mine"

"What?"

"I saw you Kathryn on the boat in Greece"

"How did you..? You followed me! YOU FOLLOWED ME!?"

"What did you expect me to do Kathryn? You went to Greece with your step-brother without me!"

"TRUST! IT'S CALLED TRUST LINCOLN!"

"TRUST IS BULLSHIT! I KNEW YOU WOULD GO SCREWING HIM!"

"Well I never should have trusted you. I cared about you Lincoln. Do you know what I did when I found you and my mother? I went home and cried!"

"Kathryn let's stop fighting and just come home"

"Fuck you Lincoln. I'll be fucked if I'm going anywhere with you anytime soon"

"Sorry sweetheart but you have too. Unless you want pictures of you and Sebastian to get out"

"What? You had pictures of me and Sebastian?"

"Yes, of you two getting closer then step-siblings should"

Kathryn threw the closest object to her at him, which happened to be an empty champagne glass. It missed him by a few inches.

"Now, now Kathryn that is no way to treat your husband"

He caressed her face and kissed her forehead. A smirk crossed his handsome face as he looked Kathryn down; he had played her game to win back what he was losing.

"Asshole"

"Get ready, the party is soon"

"Fuck you"

"I love you too Kat"

Lincoln walked out and closed her bedroom door. Kathryn walked to her closet and hit her fist on the cupboard door. She couldn't get out of this; she picked out a very suitable pale yellow halter neck garden gown. As she slipped on her shoes after putting on her dress her door opened again.

"I'm getting ready, just fuck off Lincoln"

"I hope you won't act like that in public Kathryn"

"Oh it's you"

"It's nice to see you too"

"I never said it was nice to see you"

"Kathryn I am your mother you will treat me with respect"

"Like the same respect you treat me with? You go around fucking my husband behind my back and you expect me to treat you with respect? Fat fucking chance mother"

"Watch your mouth young lady"

"I am not a young lady anymore mother, I do not need you and I do not need your advice if that's what you could call it"

"Kathryn I am still your mother and you will learn to treat me with respect or else?"

"Or else what? You can't kick me out, I don't live here, I have my trust fund and I have my own life I don't need you"

"Just get dressed; the limo will take you there"

Tiffany walked out and slammed Kathryn's door. Kathryn could still hear the faint clicks of the older Merteuil's heels on the marble floor of the Valmont townhouse. Bitch. She hated her mother, she hated the way she had always treated her.

"She almost found out, I was on the phone and she over heard"

"Make sure she doesn't Lincoln!"

Tiffany walked off from Lincoln and back to the arriving guests who were being greeted by Mrs Rosemond at the moment. Lincoln was left in the room with his pants at his ankles; before Tiffany had left she was sucking him off.

Meanwhile back at the party Kathryn had arrived and was at a table drinking a glass of wine. A waiter passed with a tray of more wine and Kathryn stopped him. She gave him the empty glass and he passed her a full one.

She was having a horrible time, she hadn't seen her husband yet and everyone was coming out congratulating her about her marriage and then saying how sorry about Sarah they were. One thing Kathryn hated was being felt sorry for, she didn't need anyone else's sympathy.

"Good afternoon honey" Lincoln lent down with a fake smile and kissed his wife on the cheek.

"Good afternoon"

"Having a good time?"

"No, having a good time fucking my mother?"

"Don't be bitter Kathryn"

"Fuck you"

Kathryn got up with a smile on her face and left her husband; she walked over to the bar and ordered something stronger then the wine she had been drinking.

"Kathryn, Kathryn, oh how wonderful you look!" Susan Dale, a fellow student from Manchester Prep said to Kathryn.

"Thanks"

"Do you like my dress? I didn't know what to wear!"

"It's fine"

Kathryn glanced down at the blonde's dress and realised it was the most hideous thing she had seen. The bright orange spaghetti strap dress clung to the not so skinny girl's body, it made her look fatter then she really was.

"Susan, how are you?" Edward greeted the blonde as he approached the two girls; Susan blushed then excused herself from Kathryn and Edward.

"Hello Kathryn"

"Hello"

"Having a good time?"

"Wonderful thanks"

"You look lovely"

"Thank you"

Edward stared down at her breasts, the dress did wonders for her breasts, they made them look fuller and bigger then they were and Edward couldn't keep his eyes of the younger Merteuil's breasts.

"Have you seen Sebastian yet? He was looking for you"

"Sebastian is here?"

"Yes didn't you know?"

"No, he didn't mention it"

"Oh well there he is over there, talking to his Aunt"

Edward pointed over by a white tent where Sebastian was talking with his Aunt Helen. He seemed bored out of his mind, knowing his Aunt Helen she was probably going on about some charity work she had done recently or one of her journeys over seas that Sebastian always pretended to be interested in but never really was.

As Edward walked off Kathryn got up and made her way over to the gorgeously dressed Sebastian. She smoothed her hair and then approached the two. She placed a hand on Sebastian's shoulder then looked to Mrs Rosemond.

"Excuse me Aunt Helen, would I be able to steal my brother away for awhile?"

"Go ahead dear; I was probably boring him anyway"

The sweet old lady smiled at Kathryn, Sebastian looked to Kathryn and rolled his eyes. Of course she was. Who really wanted to hear about how she went to an old folk's home to play some backgammon with them?

"Thanks"

Mrs Rosemond walked off and chatted to some other guests that were around whilst Kathryn sat down with her brother at the table he had been standing near.

"What are you doing here?"

"Why it's really good to see you too sis"

"Seriously Sebastian what are you doing here?"

"I came to see you"

"Here?"

"Well yes, can't you see that?"

He touched Kathryn's arm lightly. She pulled away then looked around quickly.

"Don't"

"Why?"

"People might notice"

"Let them"

He leaned in and kissed her ear, from anywhere else it just looked like he was whispering in her ear. She smiled when he kissed her but then wiped it off and turned her face to stone.

"Sebastian don't"

"What's wrong with you?"

"You is what's wrong with me"

"That's not what you were saying last night"

"I was intoxicated"

"Bullshit"

"Fuck you, what would you know. You were too busy playing happy families with that fiancé of yours"

"Don't call her that!"

"It's what she is!"

"I don't like it"

"Well you're the one who proposed to her!"

"Wishing it was you!"

"What?"

"Nothing"

He got up and skulled the rest of his drink, setting it back down on the table he walked off to the bar where he quickly found a cute brunette to chat up, Kathryn watched as he worked his charm over the girl, who mind you quickly gave into the idea that Sebastian had. They soon walked off arm in arm into the house.

Kathryn was angry and followed in after them. She stormed up the stairs when she heard a voice that sounded similar to her mother's and Lincoln's. She peered into the crack of the door and listening to the conversation.

"Did you speak with her?"

"Yes Tiffany I did, she's still furious"

Damn right I am.

"As long as she doesn't know what we did"

"We? It was all your idea"

"My idea, you put it together and Kassie finished it"

"What we did was wrong!"

"What we did was right for Kathryn and Sebastian"

What was right for me and Sebastian?

"Killing Sarah so that no one would ever find out the truth about her father went beyond the boundaries Tiffany!"

What!? They killed Sarah?

"Having Sarah dealt with was the only way to make sure people wouldn't find out about it being Sebastian's child. I wasn't going to have my daughter be a social out cast because she gave birth to her step-brother's child!"

"We had Sarah killed!"

Kathryn started to cry. Her mother and husband had killed her daughter, the pain she felt the moment Sarah died was awful, it was like somebody ripping her heart from her 4 times in a row.

She crumbled to the floor and her head went into her hands. She sobbed quietly into her hands for a few moments before the door creaked open more and Tiffany stepped out, she didn't notice Kathryn until she latched onto her mother's ankle.

"Kathryn what the hell are you doing?"

"YOU KILLED HER!"

"Kathryn keep your voice down, what are you on about?"

Lincoln walked out and saw a tear streaked, red faced Kathryn attached to her mother's ankle crying and yelling at her.

"What the fuck is going on?"

"LINCOLN YOU FUCKING BASTARD!"

A door down the hall opened quickly and Sebastian stepped out in his boxers.

"What the fuck is going on out here?"

"Sebastian" Kathryn sobbed.

A puzzled Sebastian walked down to the hall to Kathryn, her mother and Lincoln. He bent down and picked her up, standing her on her feet. She was shaking and still sobbing.

"What's wrong Kat?"

"THEM!"

Tiffany quickly thought, she couldn't have Sebastian knowing about Sarah being killed.

"She's drunk Sebastian"

"I'M NOT DRUNK! IT WAS YOU!"

"Kathryn you're not making sense"

Sebastian pushed her damp hair from her face and looked into her green eyes, they were puffy and red but she still looked beautiful.

"They killed her Sebastian"

"What?"

"Don't listen to her man; she's had too much to drink. Come on Kathryn, let's take you home"

"I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE WITH YOU!"

Lincoln pulled her arm fiercely; she winced as he grabbed her arm hard. She pulled away and tried to break free but his grip was tight and she couldn't fight back.

"I don't think she wants to go with you Lincoln"

"She's my wife and I think she'll come home with me if I want her too"

"LET GO OF ME!"

"I think you should do what she says"

"I think you should back off Sebastian" Tiffany told him.

"Sorry Tiffany I didn't know you acted like a mother?"

"Don't talk to me like that Sebastian"

Lincoln pulled Kathryn and she dragged along the floor. Her heels scratched the polished floor.

"Lincoln I really think you should let go of her"

"She's coming home with me!"

Sebastian shook his head and walked to Lincoln who was still trying to drag Kathryn across the long hall of the Estate. He grabbed a hold of Kathryn and pulled her from Lincoln's grip.

"Oi what the fuck do you think you were doing?"

"This"

He punched Lincoln right in the nose and he stumbled back a few steps clutching his now bleeding nose. He swung back at Sebastian but missed.

"Now fuck off"

Lincoln hurried down the stairs with his bleeding nose, a shocked Tiffany following close behind.

Kathryn was on the floor sobbing into her hands still.

"Kathryn what's wrong?"

"They did it"

"They did what?"

"They killed her"

"Killed who Katie?"

Kathryn looked up at Sebastian, tears still rolling down her cheeks. She wiped her cheeks and fiddled with her hands.

"Sarah"

"That's ridiculous Kathryn, she fell"

"No they planned it, they knew she was yours and they killed her!"

"What?"

"Sebastian please believe me"

Sebastian picked her up and took her into a room where she could freshen up and be alone, he chucked on a jacket and pants that was in the room and ran downstairs. He searched the party for Lincoln and found him with ice on his nose sitting at a table under a tree; Sebastian walked up to him and punched him again in the nose.

"FUCKING HELL"

Tiffany turned around after hearing the cry and stormed over to Sebastian who was punching the life out of the man of the hour.

"Sebastian stop that!" Tiffany yelled as she grabbed onto Sebastian's arm.

Sebastian flung her backwards and she thudded to the ground on her ass, people turned around looking towards the brawl. Lincoln was now fighting back after Sebastian had turned his attention to the shocked Tiffany Merteuil.

Lincoln swung at Sebastian and hit him in the jaw. He continued hitting him until he stumbled and missed. Sebastian took this chance to fight back and punched Lincoln again, this time in the gut. He bent over and fell to the ground in pain.

"YOU'RE GOING TO PAY!"

The pain filled Lincoln was on the ground in a ball as Sebastian kicked him, all over the man was bleeding and bruising quickly. A worried Edward from afar saw the brawl and ran over. He grabbed Sebastian's arm and forced him from Lincoln.

"LET GO OF ME DAD!"

"Sebastian calm down!"

Sebastian's face was red with fury. He tried to break free of his father's grip but it was tighter and stronger than Sebastian's and was nearly impossible. Once he had stopped trying to get free he realised why he was trying to kill the scum bag. Sarah, he had killed Sarah.

"Sarah"

"We know Sebastian, she's gone. But that is no reason to beat up on Lincoln it was his daughter and he is probably just as miserable as you"

"NO! It was not his daughter! He is not miserable!"

A freshened up Kathryn now appeared close by her arms folded on her chest. She had seen Sebastian struggle from his dad's grip and was now hearing the words that would destroy her reputation.

"Sebastian of course Sarah was Lincoln's"

"SHE WASN'T!!"

Edward looked to Kathryn with compassion in his eyes, something the older Valmont never usually had. Kathryn picked up her head slightly then walked over to Sebastian. What she was about to say would hurt him, but she wasn't going to destroy her reputation just because Sebastian wanted everyone to know that Sarah was his and not Lincoln's.

"Is this true Kathryn?"

The party guests had silenced, all attention was on Kathryn, Edward and Sebastian. Edward loosened his grip a little on Sebastian. Kathryn looked to her mother who had now stood up from the ground where Sebastian had pushed her.

"No"

"What the fuck Kat! She was mine!"

"Sebastian I think you've had a little too much to drink"

"Don't play your fucking mind games with me now Kathryn!"

Kathryn put a smile on her face and turned around to the guests. "Sorry about this, he's had a little too much to drink. As painful as Sarah's death was, she was in fact Lincoln's. I would not have inappropriate relations with my step-brother"

"Oh fucking Christ Kathryn! You know damn well she was mine"

"Brother I think maybe it's time for you to leave"

She grabbed his arm and led him down to the driveway where several limos were waiting to take party guests home. The walk there he hadn't said a word but as soon as they were out of site and he was about to get in the limo, he pulled Kathryn in with him then shut and locked the doors.

"What the hell Sebastian!"

"Why did you do that?"

"Do what?"

"Tell them she was Lincoln's! You know she was mine!"

"Something I'm not about to ruin myself over"

"Jesus fucking Christ Kathryn, I can't believe you sometimes!"

"Me either sometimes"

Sebastian shook his head at his step-sister and unlocked the door. She could go back to her scum of a husband for all he cared right now.

"Goodbye Sebastian"

"Fuck you"

She closed the limo door and signalled for it to leave. A teary Sebastian sat in the limo crying about his late daughter. He couldn't believe that Kathryn straight out lied about Sarah being his.

A/N: I'm coming to an end of this story. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to write a sequel or not. I don't know if people really like it or not. But if you do let me know, I have a few ideas for a sequel, but I won't bother unless people like this one. There's really no point in continuing into a sequel if no one liked the original.

Review?
