An inkling told me to visit your story, low and behold I saw Chapter freakin' 18 posted. Then I went "Ermaghawd, she's back!"
Lol and as I come back I may have to leave again. Been locked out of my bloody blog on my computer. Currently trying to work out a way of uploading regularly 😩
Chapter 18
Money talks. And money meant that Lau had the apartment clean by the next day. It also meant that we could start planning our wedding the second we got back home. I never saw the extent of the damage Larry had caused. Except the safe in Lau’s office space. It’s surface scratched and dented where Larry had clearly tried to gain entry.
Lau had a wedding planner meet us when we got back to his place. “Call me Kat.” She had said with a smile while holding her hand out to me, “Don’t worry. I know we are on a tight deadline.” That surprised me, I wasn’t aware that we were rushing this, but I understood, he had his reasons and I had mine. I had nearly died, and I had the threat of that other part of me hanging over my head. Who knew when she would show her face, I wanted to be married to him as soon as possible.
“So.” Kat sat down opposite us and pulled an iPad out of her bag, “What exactly did you have in mind?” Her eyes sparkled as she looked between us, she loved her work, obviously. Lau was playing with the short hairs at the nape of my neck, his soft touches sending shivers down my spine, I curled into him looking up expectantly. He took the lead in everything else, I imagined he would want to here as well. He smiled down at me, “Whatever she wants. Money is no object.” Kat grinned, “You, are my favourite type of groom.” She directed her next comment at me, “Why don’t we arrange a time to meet just the two of us to talk? Give yourself some time to really think about what you want.” I nodded slowly, I hadn’t even given it any thought. I just wanted to marry him, the details meant nothing to me. “Awesome!” She tapped away at her screen, “I’ve got some space in a couple days, late morning. We could have brunch.” I nodded eagerly, getting caught up in her obvious enthusiasm, “Great!” She tapped away and slapped the lid of her protective case closed with a flourish. “Then I will see you in a couple days. I’ll email the name of the place. They do a bottomless drinks brunch. Bellini’s on tap.” I giggled, “I’m not much of a drinker.” “Never mind, you can have a couple to get the creative juices going and we can really get into this.” She stood and held out her hand, rising also I shook it, Laurent smiled lazily up at us before standing to lead Kat out. “See you soon Harmony.” “Bye.”
“Well she’s different.” Lau came back and eased down beside me, pulling me into his side to kiss my temple. I snuggled down into him, “I like her.” He laughed, “Good she’s costing me enough.” I frowned and sat up, “Can I help pay?” He scoffed at me, “No.” Insulted I pulled away from him and crossed my arms over my chest, “Why not?” “Because I don’t want you to.” He looked at the hard set of my face and sighed, “I only plan to do this once. I want it done right and I want it to be the day you dreamed of. And I doubt you dreamed of paying yourself did you?” I shrugged, “I didn’t expect it to happen at all.”
“That’s because before me you were pathetic.”
I froze at the silky whisper that sounded in my mind. Lau spoke but I couldn’t hear him over the thunder of my blood in my ears, and the poison words dripping from Her.
“Weak, fat and unwanted. I’m the daughter mom deserved.”
My breath caught.
“She wanted a daughter like me. Strong and beautiful. A girl who can take over the world.”
A dark chuckle rolled through my head.
“And I will sweetheart. Don’t you worry about that.”
“Harmony?” I jerked when Lau touched my arm, his face creased with concern, “You ok?” I shook myself, trying to shake off the clinging feeling of self loathing, “Sorry. I think I spaced out.” He smiled cautiously, “I think so.” He stood up and held out his hand to me, “Let’s get something to eat then go to bed.” I smirked at him as my hand landed in his, “It’s 2 in the afternoon.” He yanked me up into him, his hand splaying low on my back, “I know.”
**********
Something had changed inside her. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but she was. Detached. That was the best word for it. Harmony was just gliding through life right now, swept up in the fast pace preparation for our wedding. She smiled and laughed and spoke where needed, but the second she thought eyes weren’t on her she blanked out. Her thoughts going inwards, a frown always on her face, sometimes tears shining in her eyes.
Did she regret saying yes? The thought made my heart clench. Maybe she didn’t want to marry me. She entered my office, dressed more formally then she had for a while, her face beautifully made up, lips ruby red, eyes wide and ringed with heavy dark eyeliner. I smiled at her, as I stood behind my desk, watching her get ready in the morning had made me an unexpected professional in all things make up. “Hey baby.” I tiled my head down to kiss her cheek lightly, her lipstick was still wet, I didn’t want to muss her up. “Hey.” I took her hands and held them up slightly, making her do a slow turn for me, I let out a low whistle. “Baby. I know I like you casual, but I have to say you clean up nice.” She giggled like I intended and self consciously smoothed her black blazer, paired with a pair of tailored pants, a simple white t-shirt and blood red heels, she look amazing.
“Thank you. I had a call.” I sat back down and pulled her between my legs, even in her heels and me sitting I was still a touch taller then her. She tucked her head under my chin and I felt her sigh caresses my neck. I shuddered and clenched her waist. “From who?” “Them.” My brain struggled to pull from a cloud of sudden lust, Jesus, I wanted her so bad right now.
“Wait. The factory?” She nodded and I felt her lips ghost over my skin, I fought back a groan and pulled back from her. “What do they want?” I knew they would stick their noses in eventually, but I was hoping I would have made her my wife before they got around to it. “To talk to me. They called it a debriefing.” She wrinkled her nose at the term, “I think it will be quick. And I want to get a couple things from my room. They said it had all been boxes up.”
“I can get someone to do that for you.” She shook her head, her curled locs dancing round her face, “I don’t want it all.” I frowned, “I don’t like you going back there.” Late night talks had her opening up to me, about how she came to end up there, how unhappy she was. And the troubling information about basically living in a blackout for weeks at a time. “I’ll be fine.” She cupped my face and gave me a small smile, “Promise to call as soon as I’m done.”
“Calls when you get there, leave this meeting and when you leave the whole fucking place.” She laughed, “You want texts too?”
“Every 10 minutes.” She laughed again, her face lit up like it hadn’t been for a while, “Yes sir.” I kissed her properly this time, not caring when her lipstick transferred to me, “Come home safe to me.” She made to wipe the red off my mouth but I nipped at her fingers and pulled my lips in, “Non! Is my colour, yes?” I batted my eyelashes at her while she giggled and tried in vain to wipe it off. I jerked from side to side avoiding her until she threw up her hands and gave up. Still giggling she pulled from me, pausing to brush my cheek with her lips, “I’ll be ok.” The lightheartedness fled from me, I didn’t want her to go to that place.
Reluctantly I let her walk away from me, holding her hand for as long as I could. She smiled at me over her shoulder as her fingers slipped from me and blew me a kiss, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” I swallowed past the sudden lump in my throat and nodded, she smiled once more before leaving the room. The second the click of her heels was out of ear shot I grabbed my phone. My knuckles whitened with the force of my grip. Punching out a number I held the phone to my ear an counted the rings. 3 before Angelo answered. “Sir?” “Watch her. Don’t let anything happen to her.” There was pause before he answered “Of course.” “Any one looks at her wrong, deal with them. Do not let her out of your sight.” “Yes Sir.”
***************
Angelo wasn’t happy with my little field trip either, he kept shooting me hard looks in the rear view mirror. I sighed at him, “Do you want me to move up front to make it easier for you to glare at me?” “No Ma’am, This way I can at least check who is behind us at the same time.” I fought back a smile, “Very funny.” “I have to keep my eyes on the road, if I had to turn my head to glare we might have an accident.” He said it with a straight face but his dark eyes gleamed with amusement, I let my smile break free, “Angelo.” I started with a warning tone. “Harmony.” he copied my tone, raising an eyebrow at me, “I’ll be perfectly safe there, they wont do anything to ruin their finders fee.” It was well know with the girls that any man that married a factory girl paid handsomely to do so, I assumed Lau would be doing the same. “He’s not paying for you.” It was said so quietly I wasn’t sure I heard him right, “He. He’s not?” my heart rate picked up, shit. Maybe this wouldn’t be the quick trip I thought it would be. My hand rose and gripped my neck unconsciously, what if they kept me? I couldn’t go back now, now I’ve tasted freedom, now I’ve found love. I could never look at another man again, I would be there until I died. “Harmony!” the sharp shout jerked me out of my mind, shaking i brought my eyes to meet Angelo’s in the mirror. “I won’t let anything happen to you.” He spoke slowly and calmly as he turned the large car on to the driveway that lead to the compound, “Do you understand?” Taking a deep breath I nodded. He watched me for a couple seconds, the car slowing to a crawl before he nodded back and sped up again.
We pulled up to the front building and it all came rushing back, the anxiety, the dribble feeling of being rejected, every feeling I had when I was first brought here. In the back of a blacked out Lexus, the words of my mother still ringing in my ears, “Maybe they can do what I couldn’t, maybe they can make you worthwhile.” Angelo exited the car, pausing to reach into the glove box and bring out a gun. My eyes widened as I watched him confidently handle it, checking it was loaded and clicking off the safety, he slid it into a hidden shoulder holster and then slammed his door shut. My door opened soon after, he stepped back to let me hop out, but i remained frozen, “Harmony, I said I wouldn’t let anything happen to you.” “How far does that go? “As far as it needs to.” His matter of fact way of saying it both scared me and gave me confidence. I slid out of the car and looked up at him, “Promise not to leave me?” “Never.” With that one word he blocked out the words of my mother and i straightened my spine, “Ok, let’s go.”
YOU’RE BACK?!?!?!! OMG!
I am, I’m also trash and I appreciate y’all for not tracking me down and beating my ass. you would have been well in your rights to

Chapter 17
It's been two weeks. She still hasn't opened her eyes, we only just made it back to America, I was glad to be closer to home. To have my doctor look after her. She had remained touch and go for a few days in that small hospital, eventually she stabilised enough to be moved to a bigger one. But yesterday we had landed back home, she still wouldn't open her eyes. We made headlines, the playboy billionaire playing nurse, never leaving her side. The public ate it up, we arrived to a storm of media frenzy. Reporters camped out in front of the hospital, clamouring for a statement from me. I had nothing to say, not until she was awake. Then I would tell them, I stayed by her side because I loved her, but only with her at my side. And my ring on her finger. ************** "You can't be me." She, I, smiled. "What makes you say that?" I fought to get my thoughts in order, how long had I been here. I had no sense of time passing, it could have been minutes or days. "What are you?" She sat in a chair that appeared behind her, more throne that chair really. "I'm everything you could have been." She scowled, "Everything you should be." She looked me up and down with scorn, "If you wasn't so weak." I bristled, "I'm not weak." "You wouldn't be alive if not for me!" She thumped her fist into her chest, "I took over when you wanted to end it all. I got us through the first weeks there! Me not you!" I shook my head, this wasn't real. A dream, I must have knocked myself out, none of this was real. "You are slightly right. You did knock yourself out. But this is real, however it is in your head. This is where I am." Her voicing an answer to my thoughts freaked me out. A slow smile crept across her face, "But not for long." She stood and started to walk into the darkness, "You better wake up soon. Enjoy the time you have left with him. Because I'm tired of sitting in the dark. I'm coming out to play, Harmony." She seemed to vanish, her voice left echoing in the darkness. I was left alone in my shaft of light, scared and confused. What could she have meant? She couldn't be me, I was me. I stood unmoving in the shaft of light for so long, maybe I would never wake up. Would that be better? If she was coming, could she get out if I didn't wake up? Or would she wake up and I would be left here? This was all too much, my eyes filled with tears. I didn't want this, I just wanted to wake up and see his face. I wanted to hold him and tell him I loved him. I felt a brush on my hand, and spun away from where I thought it came from. This was my mind, nothing could hurt me here, right? But the feeling followed me, like fingers brushing over my skin. I lifted my hand to my chest, but the feeling followed. Next came a flutter in my forehead, like a kiss. "Please, come back baby." His voice filled the space around me, I spun in place trying to work out where it came from. Maybe I could follow his voice out of here. "Lau!" I heard his sigh, "Please baby. Come back. I need you." In the distance a small light seemed to float, "Please." His voice was hushed now, no longer echoing all around, coming from the light. This might be my only chance. Squaring my shoulders and swallowing nervously, I headed to the light. I could only hope it took me home. *********** I was almost ready to give up. They said she was out of danger now, but still she wouldn't open her eyes. I squeezed her hand, "Come back." My voice caught, tears threatening, I couldn't lose her. Desperate to wake her I reached into my pocket and pulled out the ring box I had been holding for what felt like forever. I snapped it open one handed and showed her the ring. "Please baby. Come back. Marry me, I need you to marry me." The light from the window sparkled off the yellow diamond of the ring. I glanced at it before looking back at her face. It was perfect for her, the yellow diamond surrounded by smaller white diamonds. All clear and sparkling. Beautiful, a ring she deserved. But she wouldn't wake up to see it. I dropped the box and took her hand in both of mine. "Harmony." I cleared my throat, "please. I need you. You have made me live again. Made me whole. I was a shell before you came along. Jumping from girl to girl." I brushed her face with the back of my fingers. "I knew the moment I saw your face that you would change my world. And you did. Don't change it and leave me. I love you." I choked on a soft sob, "Come back to me. Spend a life time with me, marry me." I dropped my head over her hand and cried, "Please marry me." Her hand twitches in mine and I jerked back in surprise. Hardly daring to hope I lifted my eyes to look at her face, my heart stopped when I met her gaze. Her eyes open, if slightly dazed. She lifted her hand slowly, her fingers shaking, brushing my cheek. "Yes." We left the hospital together 4 days later. Her walking after long arguments with the doctors. She refused to be wheeled out like an invalid, I was so happy she was back and fighting that I agreed with anything she wanted. We held hands, faced the press together, just like I wanted. My ring on her finger. I felt like I would burst, I was happier then I ever remember being. She came back to me. "What happened to Dani?" She finally asked me the question I had been waiting for in the car on the way home. Her hand in mine, rubbing my thumb over her knuckles. "She was picked up by the police while you were still in hospital. She turned from the window to frown at me, "What for?" "Harmony. She tried to poison you." She shook her head, "No she didn't." I made a sound of disbelief, "You've been in hospital for 3 weeks, unconscious for over 2. You think that just happened." She tilted her head at me, "No Laurent I don't." I flinched at the use of my full name. "I'm not stupid. I know what happened, I'm saying she didn't do it." "Then who did? They found the poison in her bag." "It wasn't her." "It was only us and her there Harmony. Unless you think I did it." She sighed, "I know you didn't. And I know she didn't." Frustrated I took my hand from hers, "So who did?" She opened her mouth to speak, but closed it again without saying anything. Instead turning back to the window watching the city race by. "It wasn't her. I don't want her in jail for something she didn't do." Unsure what to say I let silence fill the car. How could she sit there so calm and say Dani didn't do it, who else would have? Even if they didn't find the poison in her bag, I let my mind go back to that day. Closing my eyes I tried to picture Dani's face when Harmony passed out. Had she been surprised? I remembered her screaming, but that could have just been her pretending. Shaking the image from my head I looked at Harmony, I was going to marry her. Soon, I couldn't risk losing her again. Reaching out I touched her hand. "I know you two got close again. I wouldn't want to believe a friend did that to me either, but you have to face facts baby. Who else could it have been?" Her face stayed turned away for a moment, but then her shoulders sagged and she I clipped her seat belt to climb into my lap. "Ok." I let out a breath of relief and held her close. "I'm sorry baby." I kissed her head, "Let's put this behind us. We have a wedding to plan." She gave me a weak smile and snuggled in closer. Maybe this would take a while to get over, especially if she didn't think Dani did it. ********* How was I meant to explain, without looking crazy, that the reason I didn't think Dani tried to kill me. Was because I met some crazy version of myself in my head? I followed Laurent up to the apartment, docile as a kitten. I had worried him, the last thing he expected was for me to say I thought Dani was innocent. But I did, and the idea of her in jail for something she did not do was eating away at me. All of that was pushed aside when we got home. The place had been trashed. I gasped when the elevator opened on the carnage. Lau swore and dropped my hand, "Stay here." He stormed further into the house, shouting for Larry. I stepped into the foyer, the elevator doors sliding shut behind me. I forgot about his brother, clearly he had been living large. The table that held a flower arrangement that was changed weekly was on its side, the flowers scattered on the floor. Clothes, food and shoes were piled around too, somebody had partied hard and gone home naked. I moved over and shifted a pile with my foot. Some girl, I frowned at the tiny skirt and bra my foot turned over. Not that she had turned up in much. I could hear him coming back, muttering to himself in French. "Where's Julie?" The question popped out before I realised, she would never allow the house to be in such a state. "Not here." He grabbed my hand and pulled me back to the elevator. "We can't stay here." He smashed the button and the doors opened immediately. "Lau, is it that bad." A muscle in his jaw jumped, "I'm going to kill him." Angelo took us to a hotel. The whole drive over Lau was glued to his phone, first finding Julie. Dr had gone to stay with her brother when Larry started to get out of hand, I heard her crying down the phone. Lau wouldn't tell me details, but I heard her say Larry had attacked her while high and drunk. The. He called to get his locks changed and the house cleaned. By the time we got to the hotel, he was steaming mad. His temper along with his limitless black card got a room in no time. He whisked me upstairs, that muscle jumping in his jaw the whole time. He was pissed. I sat on the bed and watched him pace. I took the time to look at him properly. He looked tired, and he had lost weight. My time in hospital had taken its toll on him. He passed me again and I reached out to touch the back of his hand. He stopped and let out a long breath, eyes closed, before sitting next to me. "Was it that bad?" "Both our rooms are trashed." His tone was flat and even, "The kitchen, he smashed the tv. He tried to get into the safe." He scrubbed his hand over his face, "I can't let this go this time." I pulled him to me and laid down with his head on my chest. "No you can't." I was surprised when he started to cry. His body shaking as his tears soaked into my T-shirt, I stroked his back and let him get it out. "He's my brother. Why does he do this to me?" "I don't know babe. I wish I did, I wish I could help." I held him and he cried until he fell asleep. My own issues would have to wait, I needed to see him though this. ***** His brother was interesting. I liked him. Maybe when all this was over I would look him up.

So in reading over the last chapter and getting to the end, I think I know what she meant by "I'm You," but you're probably going to throw me a curveball.
Lol yes. And people guessing will make me take shit down a dark road. For your own sanity don't guess
I ran my finger down the stem of my wine glass, this guy was boring me. All I could think about, was him. I smiled to myself I tugged my lip between my teeth, I would call him later, after this one dropped me home. “What do you think?” I lifted my green eyes to my date for the night, I blinked...
So this and purgatory were the one shots I was working on. Factory will be back next week some time, most likely late in the week
First Laurent punches her in the clit and now he's poisoning her?!?!?!? What kind of 50 shades of madness is this!!!
LOL I will never live the punching of the clit down 🙈 and what you mean 50 shades?! I'm much better then that mess *hair flip*
