A/N: So very sorry for the long wait but this one was just not coming to me. But after 2 weeks I think I've got it!
Review & enjoy!
The next morning Marcus walked around Camp Jaha observing the various groups and their daily routines. He had gotten back to the room late last night and found Abby asleep. He watched her for a while and wanted to wake her but she looked so peaceful. It amazed him how she could look so at ease despite everything that had been thrown at them. He had fought with himself all night about how to tell her about Diana. He was ashamed of his relationship with such a woman and wanted nothing more then to forget the entire thing.
"Penny for your thoughts Chancellor?" Abby's soft voice broke him from his thoughts.
"Hey you're not supposed to be out here." He said placing an arm around her waist.
"Yeah well it gets really boring being in your room all day . . .in your bed." She teased "Besides you never told me how it went with Diana."
"Abby can we discuss this later?"
"No Marcus, if she wanted me dead I need to know."
He shifted uncomfortably from one foot to the other.
"Fine if you must know yes she wanted you dead." He gave in knowing he would not be able to hold out much longer.
"I've never done anything to her."
Marcus cupped her face in his hand, "Yes you did."
Her eyes grew wide, what could she have possibly done? She was a doctor that saved people and always looked out for everyone before herself.
"Abby I don't know how to tell you this . . ." He stammered.
"Spit it out Marcus." She snapped.
"Diana and I used to be together."
Abby felt her heart sink, out of all the women on the Ark Diana had to be the one. Her hand rested on her tiny stomach as she stared at the father of her unborn child. "What do you mean?"
He tried to dodge her gaze but it was impossible. "It was a casual relationship, just sex."
"Just like all the others?"
"How did you know about those?"
"Oh come on Marcus everybody knows about your past. They all still think you're that guy because they don't know about us."
"Then maybe it's time we tell them."
"And give her more reason to come after me? And our child Marcus I don't think so."
"Abby, Diana and all those others were just surrogates. I needed them because I couldn't have you."
"Did you love her?" She asked.
"I just told you she meant nothing. None of them did Abby."
"You get off on causing women pain don't you? All the times you disagreed with me on the Ark. the times you let me fall into your best after my husband was floated and my daughter put in jail. The night we sent the 100 to the ground and I showed up. You could've turned me away all those times but you didn't, you used me at night and abused me during the day." She turned to walk back inside.
Marcus had no idea she felt that way. He knew that most women only wanted one taste and that was all. It worked well in his favor, as terrible as it sounded they were just filling his empty void until Abby came along. Diana had been the one he kept around because she was the most convenient at the time. Never did he think she would grow attached and come back to bit him in the ass.
"Abby!" He called.
She stopped, not turning to look at him. "I'll deal with Diana myself." She said and then went back inside.
Marcus wanted to follow her but knew that would only cause more problems. She needed her space and it was best to give it to her. He was worried about Diana, if Abby went near her she could be in danger, and the baby too.
"Doctor Griffin are you sure about this?" the young man who was guarding the area where they kept the criminals asked.
"I'm positive, Ms. Sidney and I have so unfinished business." Abby replied placing her hand on the doorknob.
"Does Kane know you're here?"
She turned her head to glare st the young guard, "Of course he does." She lied giving the knob a turn and the door opened.
Abby entered the room with her head held high, she was not letting Diana win this one. Slamming the door behind her she faced Diana, placing her hands on her hips Abby spoke. "Well I thought you were dead."
Diana sat behind the same table she had the night before when Marcus had interrogated her. "No I'm alive and well."
Abby took a seat across from her, "Tell me Diana what would you possibly gain from my death?"
Diana leaned forward " Everything." she whispered in a low tone.
Abby took a deep breath "Marcus told me about you two and I know that it didn't mean anything."
"Really? Well you know Abby I thought he loved me just as much as I loved him. That is until . . ." Diana's voice trailed off.
"Until what?" Abby raised an eyebrow.
"Until you returned his feelings. I saw you two you know? That first night, I cane to his quarters and there you were in his bed."
Abby cheeks flushed, she had ever been so embarrassed in her entire life. The thought of another woman seeing her in such a situation was beyond humiliating.
"It feels good doesn't it?" Diana questioned.
"Excuse me?" Abby looked puzzled.
"The way he touches you, his lips on your skin as you moan his name."
Abby felt sick, she did not disagree with what she was saying but the fact that Diana knew such intimate details about Marcus made Abby feel dirty.
"Well you can just forget about him." Abby slammed her fist on the table.
Diana remained calm, "That's not going to happen as long as I'm here."
"Then we'll give you to the Grounders as a peace offering." Abby stood up and began to pace.
"I already made peace with them. You remember those guards you took on the secure mission?"
Abby nodded the uneasy feeling in her stomach growing stronger.
"I promised the Grounders some Sky People."
"How could you do that? Why would you do that?"
"Oh simple I needed you and Marcus alone."
"Do you could shoot me?"
"Bravo! Now you're catching on." Diana beamed with excitement.
"You make me sick Diana." Abby but her lip.
"Not as sick as that baby am I right?"
Diana watched as Abby's hands rushed to her stomach instinctively protecting her child.
"How...how do you know?" Abby said barely above a whisper.
"Oh honey if I told you all my secrets this wouldn't be fun anymore." Diana mixed as she stood from the chair.
"Don't you come any closer" Abby warned "or I'll get Marcus."
"Oh perfect just the man I want to see. You know I never gave him my congratulations on the happy news." Diana laughed pulling something from her picket.
Abby's eyes filled with horror as she saw the sharp blade of a life flicker in the light. How did she get that passed the guards? Wasn't she searched? Diana turned to face her, knife in hand. "Although congratulations probably won't ve the right thing to offer" she stepped closer "perhaps Condolences would be better."
Abby took a deep breath as she backed into the wall. Diana coming closer and closer. The blade glimmering in the light , coming right for her. For once in her life Abby regretted not listening to Marcus. She was trapped.
