Escape

Curtis thumbed through my clothes and because I felt assaulted enough as it was I just sat there on my bed watching him look through them. He watched me closely though and at that moment I was too defeated to do anything. I’d been forced to let him touch me everywhere and see all of me. The only thing that was left for him to be inside me and I honestly wasn’t sure how the hell I could get out of that. I looked over at Laura and just watched her breath. I’d hoped she'd come too soon or I could do something for her. Finally, “Could I just roll her on her side?” Curtis looked up from what he was doing and over towards Laura. He did not look at her with any kind of concern and more like trash, he had to deal with. It pained me to see him look at my friend that way especially because I knew up until last night she’d been falling for this fake jerk just like Susan. I felt so sorry for these women in falling into this smug slimy asshole’s trap and there was

The Shot Blake's POV

I spent Saturday evening with my family taking the blame for the Curtis Montgomery situation getting out of hand. It wasn’t entirely my fault but I needed to for Susan to deal with as little as possible. I saw my sister and knew she was close to feeling as if she was breaking and I couldn’t bare to be a reason she did break. It had always been an easy role to take on in my family. My father was never pleased I had followed in his footsteps, and my mother was too doting on my sisters to realize the things she put on my shoulder and my sister’s even though they never meant to find it just as easy as if it was out of habit for all of them to blame me. Plus, there was the incident with Jason and even though it all ended up well and Jason was a Sutton himself at this point, I think the feeling that if I wasn’t there none of these things would happen. It took well into the night to get Jason convinced to just stay at the house with us as he preferred his small apartment ne

Hospital Blake's POV

The ambulance seemed like it was slow but it wasn’t. The police did come first which was good because even though I stayed by Kate. I could see Russ pacing and talking in Russian and knew he could kill Curtis if they didn’t come sooner. Russ had also brought Laura from somewhere in the apartment and laid her on the couch. She was unconscious and I started putting some of it together because if Laura was inside either Curtis was the new boyfriend and we hadn’t realized it or her boyfriend was dead somewhere. In those first few minutes, I managed to think clearly enough to get Chad to go check Laura’s apartment and make sure there was nobody else inside while Mrs. Flora went to each apartment ensuring everyone else’s safety. There was nobody else injured but Kate and Laura. They both looked terrible and it killed me that I wasn’t there for either of them. Kate especially, if I’d only gone to her apartment as soon as I thought there was a chance but I had no idea. I watched her breat

Laura -Jason's POV

I’d never seen my brother act the way he was acting and it was hard to watch. Blake was always calm and steady ever since I met my brother and this was way out of his norm. There was a lot out of his norm though ever since he’d reconnected with Kate. I liked Kate and appreciated her bluntness, her kindness, and the way she was with Blake. She made him happy and I know he needed that more in his life than many knew. I had felt helpless ever since finding out about Kate and guilty that I hadn’t suggested we just go over to hang out with Kate the night before and then maybe then none of this would have happened but then again there will still be the situation now with this girl I was about to go see who had been tortured by Curtis Montgomery worse than he’d ever done Susan. I guess it all needed to happen to at least give her a chance to escape. I had to be sneaking about going to see her for the first time because I wasn’t family and she was in the ICU.

Cleaning Up Susan's POV

I was surprised when Blake was so willing to give me Kate’s keys to her apartment but I was happy for the distraction. Kate was still in surgery and it was taking a bit longer than we’d all thought and I couldn’t stand being in that cold waiting room for one more minute. It gave me a different perspective to be in a waiting room desperate for information on a loved one's surgery and I made a note in my mind to not do that to anyone else. The whole situation with Kate was maddening and my guilt was almost unbearable so I ended up practically begging Blake to allow me to go clean up Kate’s apartment. Blake tried to refuse but I told him it was more than most could bare to see the blood of their loved ones and nobody else should be in her apartment without her permission, plus I finally admitted I had to get out of there. I could not handle anymore the face of my parents or Mel. I know they weren’t purposely trying to give me faces but we all knew deep inside no matter ho

The Awakening

My eyes burned and it was difficult to open them. I tried to slowly feel around to figure out where I was and what was happening. As soon as I started to open my eyes I felt my hand being grabbed. “Kate, Kate are you waking up? Nurse, she is waking up!” “Blake?” My eyes burned but I finally was able to open them up. I started thinking I might have been in a car wreck or something but my memories started floating in quickly almost too quickly and my eyes started crying. “It's me, Kate. Kate my sweet don’t cry.” I heard other voices walk in and one asked for Blake to walk away. “Please don’t leave me, Blake.” “I won’t Kate I will just be right of here why they check you out.” I started to focus my eyes and saw what looked like a physician and two nurses checking my vitals. “Hello, Kate I’m Dr. Buchannan. You gave us quite a scare there! You didn’t want to wake up from surgery.” “Surge

Recovery

It has been two days since and I was recovering nicely. I was being pumped full of antibiotics to ensure my body did not get an infection from the bullet. I also was doing physical therapy and was able to do most everything easily at this point despite the pain. I was determined to not allow Curtis Montgomery to have any more of me and with any luck, I’d be out by Sunday is what the doctors told me. Blake had been amazing and so supportive. He brought me everything I could use for work and even though the doctors wanted me to rest I still took plenty of opportunities to respond to e-mails, approve projects and set up meetings for next week. I know the doctors frowned on it but even Blake tried to tell them that it would stress me out more if I was too behind at work. I was grateful for how great he was even though part of me felt guilty for how much time I was taking away from his work. He wouldn’t even listen to me though about being alone and he refused to leave from more than t

The Hunt

“We are looking for the impossible!” I shoved the computer further down my lap in frustration as I sat on my hospital bed. Blake and I had been looking at homes online for the last day. I was almost excited at the process but there were some not-so-easy requirements that we both agreed needed to be met. Blake didn’t want to live in the suburbs he wanted to be in the city but that also made it difficult to find some yard space for Rosco. Both of us agreed on the idea that Rosco needed a yard and I was grateful that Blake could get on board with that plus there were a lot of other things we were looking for or should I say Blake was looking for. Suddenly the guy who lived in a storage room bedroom as I called it now wanted space for at least 4 vehicles and he had to have a living space for Russ plus if he wanted to have other security available or personnel he wanted them to have options. I had no idea how that was possible but he kept looking at these insanely priced homes that were

Coming Home

We pulled up to 1500 Lakeshore Drive and I was in shock at how large the building was. I hadn’t even realized that the penthouse was on the 21st Floor and although it didn’t seem as high as some buildings it was pretty large because most of the apartments had vaulted ceilings. We walked up to the door and were greeted instantly by a very well-dressed doorman. He was very polite and asked to guide us to our new home. Second, later the building manager was there greeting us and extending his invitation to come with us as well. We were also already extended a co-op invitation by the board members who make the decisions on who officially gets to live in said building. It was a bit much but I had to admit it seemed like everyone wanted to cater to us rather than upset us and I knew they were all pleased that Blake Sutton of Sutton Enterprises was living in their building. I felt a bit underdressed for the door greeting as I’d just gotten out of the hospital and was weari

The Christening

I wake up and realize Blake is snuggling against me and look down to see Rosco must have gone for his adventure outside. I love the idea of him being outside whenever he wants now and there are no more worries for anyone. I can’t help but embrace this luxury of the many luxuries that have been coming right along with us. Feeling Blake against me I take in his warmth and muscular arms and I start realizing that everything is going to be okay if I want it to be. I take a minute and push back all my fears and worries from the last week and turn myself to Blake. He is lightly nappy so I know I could wake him up if I wanted. I feel his chiseled jaw and outline it with my hands and then go down his black muscle shirt pulling it up and allowing my hands to go over his beautiful six-pack. I can’t help but think to myself this man is secretly a model or something and know this is why all those magazines call him one of the most eligible bachelors. I realize I should take mor
