A/N: Sorry for the long delay! I've had a NASTY cold these last few days and I actually felt decent enough today to finish this and get it posted.

After spending a few hours at the stable with Taylor and his goddaughter, Taylor and Christian headed back to the house and upon arriving Christian started to go through all of his old files and found the one he was looking for and he opened it and frowned. They were fucking identical! Like mother and…..daughter. Christian growled. He had been safe and made sure she was too! Then again she could have lied to him about it the entire time. At the time he didn't have the connections he has now so he couldn't be too sure. He sighs running his fingers through his hair leaning back in the chair. How could this have happened? Christian gets up and starts to pace across his office. He just had to prove that she was his daughter but how? He was buying the stable so he could do a random blood test on all of the riders to make sure they were all clean of drugs and everything then with hers he could order a DNA test. Yes. He would do that! He would buy the stable, do a random drug test on all of the equestrians and then order a DNA test on Christina. It was perfect! He would find out if she was his daughter then go and talk to her mother and find out why she hid her from him. Yes of course he was twenty one at the time and she was eighteen but he still would've taken her and given her a good home with him and his parents as he was building up his empire. He would've taken great care of her and made sure she had everything she had ever wanted. He sighed and called Taylor in.

"Yes sir?"

"Did you know?" question Christian.

"Know what sir?"

"That Christina is my daughter."

"Not at all sir. All her mother told me was that Chrissie's father was some snobby rich bastard who only cared about himself and no one else and that he would never want the child so why bother telling him. If you don't mind me asking, how did you know?"

"I saw the resemblance in her. She was one my very first subs I kept a file on the few. I never really counted them." He explained.

Taylor nods in understanding, "If I had know you were the one she was talking about I would've told you right away when I started working for you and you gained my trust and word. I would've never hid that from you."

"I know you wouldn't. Do you know how she feels about me?"

"Sir?"

"Has her mother filled her with hatred for her father or what."

"She wants to know he father. She has never believed a word her mother has said about you. Her and her mother have always butted heads and never really got along, especially after she was thirteen. They haven't gotten along after that. And you will have to ask her what happened. It's not my news to tell." Christian nodded and stopped pacing and though about on how he would go about telling her when the DNA came back. He didn't want to scare her off either. He had to figure something out.

Rushing home Chrissie looked at the time and cursed. She was running late and her boyfriend/dominate was going to beat the shit out of her. He expected her to always be on time if she was late there were consequences. She gets into her apartment then she changes quickly and throws on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt on then heads over to his place. She gets there and runs inside and he immediately backhands her sending her to the ground with a yelp. He growls and beats her to bloody mess then storms off after a half hour leaving her there. She eventually pushes herself up and tenderly walks into the living room looking down.

"Why are you late?" snarls her boyfriend.

"My godfather and his boss showed up today at the stable. He's buying the stable and he's getting us Olympic trainers. He was talking to us all today about it and it pushed back training, I'm sorry."

"Then you should've left and came here! I don't give a fuck about that stupid horse shit you do!" he snarls.

She winces at his cold tone nodding. He grabs her and drags her upstairs and proceeds to continue to beat her to bloody mess up there then leave her lying there bleeding unconscious. He was furious and could care less. He never really even liked her. She was just a good fuck and he could do what he wanted with her and she would do it. He honestly didn't care.

A/N: Up next, Christian buys the stable, has all of them tested and then the DNA results come back
