Grace was called into her Grandpa’s office from the stables. Grace was relieved as she thought that she might have an excuse to get out of Lucas’s dance session. When she walked into the office, she saw Xan and Mrs Farthing were sat waiting for her.

“Hello Grandpa, what can I do for you?” Grace asked worriedly. "Why was Xan and Mrs Farthing here? Had she done something wrong?" Grace thought.

“Ah Grace, welcome! I have some good news for you, please take a seat next Xan!” Tony said.

Grace did and said, “Ok Grandpa, what is the good news?”

“Xan has asked Formal permission to Court you and I have agreed!” Tony said brightly.

Court me?” Grace said blushing deeply and feeling extremely embarrassed. She wished the floor would swallow her up just about now!

“It is just an old term for dating Dear, because of your position Xan had to ask Tony!” Mrs Farthing

    Xan watched Grace walk down the stairs and tried very hard not to stare at her too much, he did not want to scare her off after all! He could not believe his luck when Grace had so easily agreed to try him out. Xan made sure that he planned the date down to the last detail. But, as soon as he saw he could not remember a single detail. Grace was too busy concentrating on walking downstairs in far too higher heels to notice Xan’s lustful stare. “Why did I let Kitty talk me into wearing these stupid heels?” Grace thought. The momentary lapse of concentration resulted in Grace twisting her ankle and falling down the last couple of stairs. Xan instantly dropped his large bouquet of orchids and rushed to catch her. Grace was suddenly staring into Xan’s caramel brown eyes and could feel herself getting lost. “Are you ok?” Xan asked, his voice full of concern. “Oh my God! I am so sorry, Xan!” Grace squealed as she righted herself.

    Grace loved the fact that she was alone for the first time in weeks, alone and free. She did not know what had come over, whether it was the fact she was tired of men trying to control her or she needed space to breathe, but she had easily climbed out of the window! She had taken off her ridiculous shoes and slung them over her shoulder. Grace ran into the park enjoying the moonlight and fresh air, stopping briefly to look at a fountain. When she walked to the other side of the park and noticed a hospital. Grace walked over there with a smile on her face. Meanwhile, Xan and Hank were waiting anxiously for Grace to return. After 20 mins, Hank sensed something was wrong. “Mrs Ling, could you please check the loo to see if Dr Evans is OK?” Hank asked. Mrs Ling nodded and hurried to the female loo. She came back a couple of minutes later, her face white.“I am afraid she is not in there!" Mrs Ling said. “Shit! I knew she was upset!”

    So, you know what you are doing Li Wei? Go easy on her today, she been through a lot” Xan instructed. “Yes Master, I will give the Lady what she needs!” Li Wei said in a strange tone. “Excellent, Denug and I will be in the meeting if there are any issues!” Xan said as he and Denug walked to Tony’s office. “Do you think it is wise to have Li Wei teach Grace today?” Denug whispered. “Yes, why not?” Xan asked surprised. “Well, you did reject his Sister’s advances!" Denug said seriously. Xan laughed and said "I rejected a lot of women, you know that. I am sure there were no hard feelings. Besides, he would have to have a death wish to hurt a single strand of hair on her head! I think we should be more worried about this meeting, who knows how Tony is going to take the news about events last night!” Denug nodded and they both walked into Tony’s office. ============================================= “Ouch, Li Wei

    Grace knew the theory of being in a coma, but that was completely different from being in one. It felt like she was floating in a black sea, where she occasionally heard snippets of people’s voices. Grace had heard her Grandpa’s angry voice asking why she had not woken up yet. She had also heard Xan’s voice asking for to wake up, along with Kitty’s sobbing. Grace tried to concentrate on the voices that brought medical updates. She had heard the Doctor say she could have a bleed on the brain and needed to be moved to a hospital. Another Doctor saying she needed to have emergency surgery to release the pressure and now it was a matter of time for the brain swelling to go down. “We don’t know how much damage has been done, is any until she wakes up. She is off the ventilator, which is a good sign!” The Doctor had said. Grace had mused how much people talk when they think you can’t hear. Grace had heard her Grandpa crying and Hank trying to comfort

    Grace opened her eyes and found herself blinking against the harsh light. “It is alright Grace, you are in hospital. Can you hear me?” A friendly Nurse asked. “Yes!" Grace said with a sore throat. “That is very good Grace. Tell me can you feel me doing this on your toes!” A Doctor with grey hair and glasses said as he pricked her toes. “Oww yes, Doctor! Please rest assured all of my nervous systems is fully operational!” Grace moaned. “Ah, I forgot you are a Doctor, Nurse Smith can you please give her a drink. I am Doctor Reed, and we have been looking after you. You came in with substantial injuries including a punctured lung, broken arm and bleeding on the brain. We operated to reduce the pressure and fixed you up!” Doctor Reed explained whilst Grace sipped some water. “Hang on why is my arm not in a cast?” Grace said. “You been in a coma for 3 months Dr Evans!" Nurse Smith said gently. “No, that can’t be

    It was a couple of days before she was released and that was under the strict conditions of a health plan. Grace was glad to get back to the mansion but, not as happy as Kitty or Mrs Farthing who would not let her lift a finger!Grace could not help it but she was feeling low. She knew rehabilitation would be a slow process, but this did not stop her from being frustrated.“You doing well Grace, but I don’t need to tell you that you have muscle wastage from been inactive. It will take time, so be patient!” The Physio said three weeks into treatment.“I know, it is just I used to be able to move around and do things!” Grace said“You be able to get back to do things soon enough!” The physio replied as she helped Grace into the wheelchair.“Now remember, a high protein diet to help the Muscles develop!” The Physio reminded her as Kitty came to collect her.“If I have

    Grace has pretty much recovered from the beating and coma. It had taken a couple of months of intense rehabilitation, but she was now able to walk and run a substantial distance. This had meant that Grace had restarted her Gang Training. Grace loved the fact that she was now being trained in the use of Guns and Swords. What she did not like was the Dance lessons had also restarted. To be fair, Lucas had softened towards her since the beating. Well, he stopped calling her an uncoordinated Troll, anyway! However, it was with some apprehension that Lucas told her the news. “The Winter Ball is coming up!” Lucas said casually. “Yes, I know. Erin has been teaching me the rules of the Ball and who is attending, It is 3 months away right?” Grace said. “So, has Erin told you what you need to do?” Lucas said, hoping that Erin had broken the news to her. “Well, the American Syndicate is hosting it this year, so I have to be by my Grandpa’s side, gr

    Xan watched the screen as he hung up. “Well, how did she take it?” Denug asked from the other side of Xan’s office. “How do you think?” Xan snapped Denug put his hands up in a sign of surrender and said “Look, I won’t pretend I understand what you just did. Surely, it is easier just to tell her?” “Kurt does not want to meet us for coffee and cakes, he is up to something. I can’t risk him finding out where she is at the moment!" Xan explained. Kurt was a genius when it came to technology, there was a slight chance he could trace from Xan’s phone. Kurt had managed to hack the Russian Gangs Network, well that what was presumed, as Kurt was canny enough to cover his electronic tracks. “It might be what he said - he wants to open trade between our Syndicates!" Denug said with a shrug. “Yes, but why now? We have been Syndicate Leaders for over half a decade!” Xan argued. “I suppose along with all spies with been catchin

    Kurt had to get out and have a walk. It had been three years since he has finished his rehab and he had been clean since then. He was happy about that, just like he was happy that he had eventually become friends with Grace and Xan. Such good friends in fact, that he was visiting them now in Beijing.Xan and Grace had been amazing hosts, even allowing him to stay at the penthouse suite in Xan’s most exclusive hotel. It was just, well truth be told Kurt was as jealous as hell of what Xan and Grace had. They seemed so in love, like two parts that made a whole. It was clear that Xan would die for Grace in a heartbeat, and she would do the same. “Even their kids were ridiculously adorable!” Kurt thought. It was true Edward and Chynna were capable of winning the hearts of everyone they met, including his. Kurt just wanted to find his soulmate and start his own family.“Easier said than done!” Kurt thought as he turned down a street. Kur

    Seven months later Grace was having A cup of raspberry leaf tea overlooking the amazing garden and lake. She was contemplating how her life had changed in the last two years. She had gone from a quiet shy Doctor, who was happy to spend time in Senegal, To Phoenix and a married woman with a pixie cut. Grace had done things that she never thought she could do! Grace also now had a family, something she had craved from a child. Even though they had been married in England, they still had a wedding in China. It was more colourful and extravagant than Grace could’ve possibly imagined. Grace was embarrassed at all the attention, but when she saw how happy it made Xan, she felt happy too. The Triads had been so welcoming to her and so had the Syndicate. They were simply delighted that she could speak Mandarin and was so highly educated. When they found out the fact that she was expecting twins as well, they were practically bursting with

    “You are pregnant? With twins?” Xan said astonished. He had always wanted a family but never thought it was going to be possible until recently. Now his Goddess had not only said she give him another chance but was pregnant with his children!“Are you alright?” Grace asked concerned. He looked pale and had been quiet for a few moments.“Alright? I am happy beyond words!” Xan said grinning from ear to ear. He kissed her passionately on the lips and said “What did I ever do deserve you my little Phoenix?”“I don’t know! I still think you kind of an arse hat!” Grace teased.“Well, you are right again of course. But I am never letting you go now, you do understand that right?” Xan said seriously and Grace chuckled.There was a quiet knock at the door and Anne popped her head around.“I am glad to see that you worked things out!” Anne said happily as s

We need an ambulance!” Annie snapped.“Anne?” James said he could see Annie was worried. Annie had dealt with Grace’s low sugar levels for years, yet she was concerned.“She’s pregnant!” Annie said staring at James. Instantly, James felt a mixture of pride and concern. Pride that Anne trusted him enough to trust him that information, but obviously concern over Grace.“Shit!” Theo cursed. His Dad was going to kill him if anything happened to either of them!

    “Who the fuck is it?” Tony snapped as he accepted the call.“I don’t why you are so angry you fucking dried out ball sack!
