Running Home

1.TessPulling up to the rod-iron black gates of the Deck Fortress, I feel like I am slowly pulling up to my version of hell on earth. Hi Satan, how are you today? The thought enters my mind causing me to smile despite the onslaught of panic and anxiety. Instead of Satan being a big red guy with horns and pointy fork, my Satan has exquisite looks, dark blue eyes, and a killer smile. Pretty positive torturing souls is what they have in common, though, and now I come back to him with more to lose than before.Yet here I am, hoping that Satan lets me enter hell. Things have changed over the years, but the intimidation I feel is the same. After taking a deep breath, I mentally run through my plan again. Step one is to get here safely; step two is to gain entry, and that’s all I have so far. Other than begging the man I once was madly in love with to save our daughter.I packed up so quickly to get here, only grabbing the essentials and any important documents linking us to our life.

Blast from the Past

2.5 Years EarlierAceKing continued to watch me, and I could tell he was wondering about my next move as we watched the security footage together. Then, like clockwork, the sun started to set, and she was, sneaking through the woods. Her long dark blonde hair was pulled up in a messy bun. I knew it was wavy from other footage and preferred when she left it down. I watched her climb the ladder to our childhood tree fort that we used to get away from the Deck Fortress as children. The place our parents would let us have a small taste of freedom within reason. "What did you leave up there this time?" He asked curiously, raising one dark eyebrow while leaning back into his chair. King was the most muscular of us all. He kept his dark black hair long at the top and short at the sides, as with all of our siblings, and he had dark blue eyes.Every day I started to leave something new up there for her to keep and help make her comfortable because, according to the security footage we had, s

Plans and Birthday Cake

3.Ace3 Months laterGrowing up with my parents was hell until you wrapped your head around their methods of madness. It indeed was madness. When we were six, we all had to get a pet to take care of; mine was a black husky. A year and a half later, I was made to kill Frankie; they threatened the one thing I loved more. My siblings. I knew what they were capable of. We have been isolated, beaten, and starved all before age 10. The teen years were spent teaching us how to maximize pain in others and mastering combat and weapons.They used the love we had for each other to motivate us. If we refused, they would make us watch as they hurt the sibling closest to us. My case was King. We would do anything to prevent each other from being harmed. We were bred to be unfeeling, yet it created a bond between us.When Tess entered my life, she turned into a bright spot—becoming my addiction. I wasn’t sure how l could keep her hidden from my mother. She was something that I was unwilling to part

Hard Truths and DNA Tests

4TessNowI snapped my eyes back to meet Ace’s hardened gaze; his eyes communicated many emotions I couldn’t place. I broke eye contact to look down at why I was there as I looked down at my daughter opening her sleepy eyes and blinking at me. Ace followed my gaze and looked like he got punched in the gut.Suddenly Winnie’s eyes open, and she shoots up excitedly, seeing Ace, “Daddy!” she exclaims, jumping towards him. I closed my eyes and internally groaned out loud. I hoped she would stay asleep until I got to speak to Ace about everything and the Winnie of it all.I pray that he will not break her heart and burst this illusion she built in her head of her father. Of course, I didn’t help, probably because I wanted her always to feel like she was wanted and loved. To believe that her father wasn’t in her life because of choice but because he ‘had’ to be. Was that probably terrible and unhealthy? Yes; however, I thought I had a lifetime before I had to tell her the whole truth. I did

Pep talks from War Rooms

5AceRage overwhelms me as I knock my papers and computer monitors onto the floor. My hands were shaking. I couldn’t remember the last time my hands even trembled a little, let alone full-on shakes. I pour a bourbon straight up and don’t even feel it as I drain the glass. Then realized that if she was my daughter, I didn’t want to meet her after drowning my rage in a glass. I launch the glass against the wall, and when it connects and shatters into shards on the floor, the door opens, and King walks in.“Quite the reunion?” I glare in his direction, which is the only response he gets from me. “Queenie got the kid's sample without her knowledge, by the way.”“I want the results within the hour,” I state, pointing at him becoming louder than I meant to. The rage I felt was boiling under the surface; I was barely holding it together. I was supposed to be the level-headed one or at least one of them. Honestly, I feel as unpredictable as Joker right now, and that’s not a good thing.“It w

Holy Llamacorns

Tess6Being in a place you were once so familiar with that you couldn’t even recognize from all the changes makes me both sad and relieved. The floor we got put on doesn’t seem like anyone lives here. Not that I have been exploring too much, though people have been cleaning and moving many boxes in. I found a tv and put on a puppy dog show for Winnie. I usually didn’t let her watch too much tv, but desperate times call for desperate measures.I was mentally making a list of things I would need to keep Winnie occupied while we stayed here. I left in a hurry, not wanting to let anyone know there was a plan to leave. Two duffel bags and a backpack were about all I let us take with us. God only knows what I packed being in such a panic.I must have dozed off when I woke up; I didn’t see Winnie anywhere. Feeling my heart rate speed up and drop down to my stomach, I panic, shouting, “Winter! Winter, where are you?” I run out of the room, frantically scanning around, looking for signs of he

Bug Extermination

7.AceI wasn’t used to having to wait; I wanted to immediately run out of the room and talk to my siblings. I didn’t want to leave Winnie without saying goodnight. Fuck, I have a cute kid. I know Tess and I have many things to cover, but I feel there is much more to the story that we both don’t know. We must focus on the threat and then get my family in order. They were never going to be taken from me ever again.I texted the team when I read Winnie her book to tell them I had news. Now I walk down the halls of the Deck Fortress with purpose. I am dreading the extermination. We tried almost three years ago and failed. I didn’t think this was how that bitch would come after us. I figured we would have more time before she got enough resources to come after us. Hell, maybe she didn’t think Tess would return, or maybe that’s exactly her plan.I worry about Queenie’s headspace after I tell her whom we are going after. It took us so long to get her back, I was dreading losing her, but I w

Reunited

Tess8I wake up to Ace gently whispering my name, “Tess.” Blinking open my eyes, trying to focus with the bedside lamp on. “Sorry, it cannot wait.”“Make coffee?” I said, looking at the alarm clock reading 12:34 AM.He chuckles and nods “some things never change.” I close my eyes and flip him off, hearing him laugh as I rub my eyes, trying to get the grogginess away. I grab the mint green bathrobe I found earlier, put it on, and try it to hide the fact that I am braless. The sleep shorts and matching t-shirt were a quality I was not used to.He even had them get me fluffy slip-on slippers that made walking on the hardwood floors more comfortable. Finally, I slide into one of the chairs in the kitchen, and Ace slides a cup of coffee into my hands. Thankfully he allows me to finish taking a few sips before asking any questions.I look up at his dark blue eyes and smirk at him, saying, “this had better be very important. That bed gave me one of the best night sleeps I’ve had in a while.

Waffles and Plans

Ace9I feel a little hand tap on my face and slowly open my eyes, thinking I could get used to this. “Daddy! You had a sleepover with momma?” She said, putting her hands on her hips and looking at me with betrayal on her face.“You want to have a sleepover with us tonight?” I asked her, not wanting her to be mad at me. I will have to fuck Tess in here before bringing her back to our bed. Sex bed and sleeping bed, I could get used to that.Her eyes light up like Christmas morning. “Really?” She said, doing a happy dance, “you promise?” She holds her pinky up to mine, and I wrap mine around hers.“Promise. Now let’s get breakfast and let your mom sleep.” Which is what we proceeded to do. Well, I called the kitchen to have Belgian waffles with all the fixings brought up for my girls—I had just finished brewing a pot of coffee when they knocked on the door with the food.“Whoa! We get room service here?” She asked me, looking like I hung the moon. Making me stand a little taller and love

Lingering Doubts

Tess10I forgot how overwhelming and all-consuming being around Ace was. I didn't know if he just wanted Winnie, and I just happened to be a bonus. If Winnie wasn't in the picture, would he still want me? Would he have turned me away if I had returned and needed help?I have never stopped wanting him; I believed the worst of him and left. He has every right to hold a grudge against me. Years' worth of anger and resentment cannot just disappear.I wanted to believe that could be true, that maybe I was enough. Perhaps the love we had was genuine. He used to tell me I was the only thing that made him feel. Being in love with a dangerous man like Ace was terrifying and amazing. Having his passion and his heart made me feel powerful. That is silly in a way, but it was true.I wanted to give Winnie a sibling, something I never thought possible. But now was the wrong time to do so. Maybe I will talk him into at least using condoms because I have flashbacks of raising Winter alone. It was so
