Hey thanks for the reviews, I appreciate it.

I know that this is a taboo subject manner, but I thought it it would be an interesting dynamic for the characters of Jack and Kate. So, lets hope that it does not get to weird. Also, let me make it clear that I am not pro-polygamy in fact I am the opposite. Hopefully that somewhat comes through in the story.

I forgot to do a disclaimer in the 1st chapter, but here it is now I do not own Lost or the characters from Lost.

The rain had grown thick with the journey from her old house to this new unknown house. Not dare looking at him or his maid, Kate kept her eyes looking outward at the rain falling from outside the carriage. Kate's tear streaked face mirrored that of the window with water running down it. The world outside the carriage was wild and violent. Inside there was an eerie calmness in the air just the sounds of the rain hitting the carriage could be heard.

The silence was killing him. They were almost to his estate and Jack could not take it anymore. He cleared his throat when she did not turn to him, "Katherine" he stated in a very stern voice like a father would say to his child when in trouble.

At this Kate turned and looked him right in the eyes. "Its Kate" she could not tell you what got a hold of her, she had been brought up to respect men and never talk back to them. However, there was just something that set her off about him calling her Katherine.

"Very well Kate it is then" he said with a warm smile. Jack was not sure why he let her get away with the way she spoke to him. If it had been any other women including his other wives Jack would have scolded them for talking back to man in such a manner, but Jack lost all his thoughts when she looked him in eyes for the first time. Her eyes were a lovely green that he wanted to get lost in. Jack was not the only one surprised by his warm response Rose his most trusted servant was looking wide eyed at him.

Kate was taken aback as well. Making her guard drop if for only for a second and in that second she looked at him really looked at him. He was handsome no doubt almost to her relief. She had visions of a fat older man with hairy moles all over him ever since her father told her that she was to be wed. Yet with his good looks there was smugness about him that did not settle well with her. He was older than her as well maybe 10 to 15 years she thought. Then the guard went right back up as he began to speak again.

"Kate when we arrive at my estate and your new home. Rose will take you to your room; she will make sure that you get cleaned up and into some new clothes. Then you will wait for me. Now, this is very important you are not to meet anyone in house before we have become proper man and wife. Do you understand?"

Kate nodded meekly. At this Kate began to shiver he said all this in such a cold manner that it scared her of what the night would bring. She could tell that her husband was used to having everything his way.

Upon arriving at her new living situation, Kate refused to call this place home; as she stepped out of the carriage and looked up at the estate it was enormous.

"How could anyone need a house this grand?" she said under her breath. However, Rose heard the comment and just gave her a look telling her to watch her month.

"Well Kate I will let you settle in, I have matters to attend to. Rose will you please show her the way?"

"Yes, Master Shepherd."

"Mrs. Shepherd will you please follow me this way." As Rose said this she began walking off not really asking, but more telling her to follow.

Kate seemed to be two steps behind Rose leading her through out the house no people in sight. For the lack of people in the house was made up by the number of rooms Kate tried to keep count, but soon gave up. As they went up the stairs Kate felt the house was cold and dark. It felt has if no living thing lived here just ghosts. That's what happened to her taken to the underworld, she thought. His head maid was some sort transporter to and from the underworld and Master Shepherd was Lucifer himself. A noise came from Rose bringing her out of her daydreaming.

"My name is Rose by the way, we were never properly introduced"

"Rose I like it, it's a good name. By the way can you please just call me Kate instead of Mrs. Shepherd?"

Rose let out a light chuckle at this. "Well it seems if anyone calls you anything other than Kate, you will have their head."

At this Kate began to laugh and soon Rose joined her.

"Well KATE we are here. This is your room" Rose opened the door to her room. The room itself was bigger than Kate's old house. The windows were covered by dark red curtains that went all the way to the floor. In the middle of the room was a large bed; to the side there was a large arm chair and a fireplace.

"Over here is the bathroom that you will use. The bath should already be prepared for you, so we can get you cleaned up." Rose guided Kate into the bathroom and helped her out of her clothes and into the warm bath. Kate never really had a proper bath before and she could not lie it felt wonderful.

"You are one dirty girl. Let me just say I have seen my share of filthy people, but you may take the cake my dear." She said with a smile on her face

"Well I love the outdoors and I'm always outside playing with my brothers." Kate beamed

At this Rose got a very serious look on her face, "Kate as a warning I think you should know that Master Shepherd hates for his wives to be anything, but the image of a perfect lady. That means always being clean, wearing what he has picked out for you and never talking unless spoken to and you must follow his orders. I just don't want to see you get in trouble is all."

"Master Shepherd sounds as if he has control and anger issues. To be honest Rose I hate him" Kate's voice became very harsh at this statement.

"He really is not that bad once you get to know him. You will find that he is a kind and fair man. He will take care of you."

"I don't want to get to know him!" Stopping Rose so she would not continue with her praises of Master Shepherd, there was a long heavy pause after this.

Breaking the silence Kate looked Rose in eyes, "I'm scared Rose" a few tears falling from her face.

"Oh honey Master Shepherd maybe stern, but he would never hit a woman."

"No not that, I'm…..I'm scared about tonight", choking on the words as they came out of her mouth.

"Oh" Rose's heart went out to Kate she was just a scared little girl that needed her mother thought Rose. Rose really had no words of advice that could make Kate feel better. All she could say was "I know sweetie I know."

"Come let's get you out of here your turning into a prune" Rose helped her out of the bath and put a white night gown on Kate and led her into the bedroom.

"Now don't you look all nice and clean."

"Rose please don't leave me", Kate said as her voice quivered.

"I'm sorry sweetie I can't stay. I really wish that I could stay, but I answer to Master Shepherd. Now he will probably be a couple of hours so just try and get some sleep and don't spend all your time worrying about this ok? Look at me Kate and promise."

"I promise"

Kate took Rose's advice and with events of the day wearing on her, sleep claimed her right away, she dreamed of apples. Apples falling from the sky and smashing into the ground then her mother appeared collecting the apples one by one. In her dream Kate tried to yell at her mother, but her mother could not see or hear her.

Jack had just finished his nightly rituals as he was about to enter his new wife's room. Every night Jack took a long bath, smoked a cigar and looked over what needed to be done for the next day. Then he went to say good night to his children. Then depending on his mood he would either sleep with one of his wives or maybe even both. However, Jack never slept the whole night with his wives. After their affairs he would always return to his room for sleep. Jack liked it this way he enjoyed having his own space and found that he was more rested which allowed him to be more alert for the day's events.

As he stepped in her room his eyes went right to her sleeping form on the bed. Jack went over to her and just stared at her for a good moment. She looked so peaceful in her sleep he thought. During the day she seemed to have this huge weight on her almost as if the the entire world's problems landed on her.

Jack gently rubbed his hand up and down her back to awake her. "Kate" he whispered

Kate's eyes opened and closed and then opened finally. Jack could see fear rise in her eyes.

"Hey it's ok, I know this is scary, but it only hurts a little. Who knows you may even like it." He said in a very calm voice all the while still rubbing her back in a gentle manner.

Jack then pulled the blanket back and held his hands out to help Kate up so that she was standing in front of him. He then bent down to the bottom of her night gown lifting it above her head. Then she was standing there naked just for him. "My God Kate you take my breath away."

Kate had her head tilted down just looking at the floor and she was trembling uncontrollably. Jack took notice in this and brought his hand to her chin bringing her face up right to look him in eyes. "Kate you are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on" he said with truth.

At this he picked her up, Kate brought her hands around his neck and her legs around his waist. She felt that she needed something to hold onto other wise she would fall right to the ground.

Jack brought her to the rather large arm chair in the corner of the room. As Jack sat down he turned Kate around in his lap with her back to his chest. He directed her head to rest on his shoulder. Jack was just itching to explore this woman's body and his strong hands began to roam. He could tell that Kate was relaxed now in his hands. He crooked his head to look at her, Kate's eye lids where almost closed. He brought one hand up to massage her breast this made the quietest of moans escape Kate's mouth it drove Jack crazy. He quickly unzipped his pants and moved them down past his knees with his other hand. Then in one swift movement he entered her. Kate's eyes shot open and her body flung forward. Jack quickly brought his arm around her stomach to catch her so that he was holding in her mid air. Giving her time to adjust to him, he stayed still while kissing and rubbing soothing circles on her back with his free hand.

"That's a good girl Kate. You're doing so well." Jack could fell her begin to relax at this he began to move with in her. My god she was so tight, Jack was not sure how long he was going to able to make it.

" I'mmm feeling funny" Kate let out in a breathy tone. Jack gave a devilish grin and snaked a hand down to her clit and began to rub it ever so gently bringing her over the edge, causing Jack to follow shortly after.

After a moment or so they both came down from their highs. Jack then lifted Kate off of him and turned her around in his lap so now she was facing him. With both his arms he held her tightly to him. "See that was not so bad. Now you maybe sore tomorrow, but that will pass. Next time it will hurt a lot less if it even hurts at all."

Jack carried Kate over to the bed and placed her carefully down and brought the covers over her naked body. When he went to go give her a kiss good night the sight before him nearly broke his heart. She was looking up at him with huge watery puppy dog eyes and if this did not kill him what came out of her mouth did.

"You're not staying?" sounding like a small child.

Jack could not leave her. All he wanted to do was wrap her up in his arms and protect her from any harm that would come her way. Kate was different than his other wives. They knew the rules and they followed them. Ever since day one they never questioned him not staying the whole night, it was just the way it was.

"Look Kate I normally don't stay, but since this is your first night and all this is so new for you. I will stay, but only this once. Ok?"

Kate just nodded at this. Jack then took off all his clothes and got in bed with her, wrapping his arms around her body causing Kate to lay her head on top of his chest. Jack became very aware of her naked body against his own naked form and felt he could take her again, but he knew that she would not be ready and right now all she needed was to be held.

Kate hated herself for asking him to stay, but when she saw that he was not going to bed with her she got scared, just the thought of being alone after well everything that had happened terrified her to death.

Kate hated that he had complete control over her.

Kate hated that this man took her away from the only home she had know and everyone that she loved.

Kate hated the fact that she actually enjoyed making love with him.

Most of all Kate hated that she felt so safe in his strong arms as she drifted off to sleep.
