"That will be all for tonight." Trey ordered.
"Yes Sir, if you need anything just phone, will be downstairs." Dino replied before following Rick and A.J out of the room. Kristen watched as they departed. Turning she goes out onto the balcony. Kristen stared down at the surrounding city in wonder. She feels Trey come up behind her and turns to look up into his eyes. Without a word his arms enclose the young woman and he kisses her with great hunger. She responds with youthful passion. Breaking from the kiss he picks her up in his arms and carries her into the master bedroom. Once there he again sets her down by the bed. Pulling her close he kisses her. Wrapping her arms around his neck Kristen clings to him as his mouth moves over hers. He reaches around her with skilled hands and unzips her dress. Knowing it is wrong he lowers her dress and it drops to the floor. Seeing her uncertainty, but wanting her beyond reason he again kissed her. His lips left her mouth and traveled down her throat to her breast where he licked at her nipples through her black lace bra. Kristen gasped at the sensations his lips and mouth create at her breast. Leaving her breast he picked her up and set her on the bed. Pushing her back he stretched out beside her his hand moving over her leg and up over her hip. He licked her nipples through her bra as his hand moved over her flat stomach. His hand slipped into her panties.
“No.” She gasped in alarm. She reached down to pull his hand away and tried to turn over.
“Easy baby. I’ll slow down its ok.” He assured her wrapping his arms around her.
“I think we should stop.” She said pushing at his chest.
“Take it easy I’m not going to hurt you.” He told her stroking her hair gently. He could read the fear in her eyes.
“I’ve never done this before.” She told him quietly.
“I know. I’m sorry I shouldn’t have pushed you so fast.” He answered. He knew he should stop she was just an innocent kid after all but he couldn’t make himself stop. He wanted her more than he had ever wanted another woman. He leaned down to kiss her gently. His lips moved slowly over hers until he felt her response. The kiss deepened his mouth feeding on hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck her fingers moving through his hair. She moaned relaxing into the kiss. His hands moved slowly over her body until his hand was cupping her breast through her bra. His thumb rubbed over the hardened peak causing her to arch into his hand. Leaving her mouth his lips moved slowly over her neck and shoulder. He pushed the strap of her bra off her shoulders. His lips moved down over the swell of her breasts. Pushing the bra down his mouth settled over her nipple. She moaned arching her back. Fire shot through her as he sucked gently at her breast. Her hands went into his hair holding him to her breast. He sucked harder drawing more of her breast into his mouth. Reaching under her back he unhooked her bra. Lifting his head he removed her bra before turning his attention to her other breast. He pulled the tip into his mouth he sucked it deep into his mouth. She moaned hardly able to bear it. Pulling back he sat up to remove his jacket and shirt. She stared up at him her body throbbing, She wanted his mouth on her breast again it felt so good. She ached inside. She reached up as he moved over her again his mouth finding hers. His hand moved down over her breast stopping to cup her breast briefly before moving down over her navel. His tongue explored her mouth driving her insane with need. His hand moved down over her panties to cup her womanhood. She gasped closing her legs. “No! Don’t touch me there!” She told him her body trembling.
“Trust me.” He said nibbling at her lower lip. He kissed her again his mouth moving over hers until he felt her legs relax. His finger moved lower rubbing at a magic spot between her legs through her panties. She moaned her hips lifting off the bed. “Does that feel good?” He whispered nibbling at her ear. “Do you want me to stop?” He asked moving his hand away.
“No, don’t stop.” She gasped. He smiled his hand slipping inside her panties down over the soft hairs.
“What are you doing?” She gasped closing her legs. She trembled beneath his hand. “Trust me.” He whispered his mouth moving down to suck at her breast again. Her legs relaxed allowing him access. He slipped a finger inside her tight sheath. She cried out her hips lifting off the bed. But she didn’t try to stop him. It felt too good her body was on fire. His fingers moved in and out driving her crazy.
“Stop I can’t take anymore!” She cried out panting for breath. She felt as if she was about to explode.
“Yes you can. Relax don’t fight it.” He replied not letting up. His finger thrust deeper causing her to cry out as her body exploded from the force of her climax. She was indeed a virgin he could feel her maidenhead. Easing his fingers out Trey removed her panties, his eyes moving over the golden nest of hair. She was still panting her eyes closed. She barely noticed him removing her panties. He pushed her legs apart. She opened her eyes to see him lowering his head. She felt the intrusion of his tongue and cried out turning over so that she was on her stomach. “Easy sweetheart.” He said with a smile. He rubbed her back gently.
“I don’t want you doing that to me.” She said burying her head in a pillow.
“It feels really good.” He told her.
“How would you know?” You’re not a girl.” She retorted feeling uneasy as his hand moved over her butt.
“I’ve heard.” He said with a smile. He had clearly been with other women she thought grimly. Rolling onto her back she stared up at him. He gently stroked her face his eyes moving over her body. “Relax.” He said with a smile. He leaned down to kiss her his mouth moving over hers. His lips moved down over her throat and breasts. Stopping to suck gently at the tips, he moved lower his lips moving down over her navel. She stiffened as he kissed at the soft hairs, but she didn’t stop him. He gently eased her legs apart to give him access. His tongue slid over her wet entrance. She gasped her hands grasping the bed spread. Fire coursed through her body causing her to thrash helplessly on the bed. But he didn’t let up no matter how much she begged. He drove her relentlessly toward the edge until she cried out falling through space from the force of her climax. He smiled as he got up from the bed to remove his pants and shoes. Pulling off his socks he climbed onto the bed settling his body over hers. He nudged her legs apart. She was still shaking from the force of her climax. He reached down to guide himself into her. He entered her slowly pushing forward. She was so hot and tight. She gasped as he pushed into her. She had kept her eyes closed when she realized he was removing his pants. But now she wondered if she should have looked. He felt too big to fit her.
“It hurts!” She cried out pushing at his chest.
“Easy baby, try to relax, I’m almost in.” He groaned trying to restrain himself. When all he wanted to do was bury himself in her. She thrashed about trying to push him off of her. With a groan he buried himself deep inside of her. She cried out tears streaming from her eyes. “Relax baby, it will get better.” He told her kissing away her tears. “Kiss me.” He told her his mouth moving gently over hers. She kissed him her mouth opening under his. Slowly her body relaxed beneath his, the pain easing. “I’m going to move now.” He told her. She was relieved and disappointed to feel him withdraw. But than he thrust forward again burying himself deep inside her, he moved slowly in and out until she started to meet his thrusts. It still hurt but not as bad. He held onto his control for as long as possible. Once his control snapped he found himself riding her harder and faster. He allowed himself to peak quickly not wanting to hurt her. He groaned from the force of his release, burying himself deep, he poured his seed into her. He collapsed on top of her. He had been with a lot of women. But none had brought him the pleasure this innocent had. Rolling off her he stared up at the ceiling. She turned over curling up in a ball, tears streaming from her eyes. It had hurt so bad! “Baby don’t cry. It only hurts like that the first time.” He told her realizing she was crying. He wrapped his arms around her. He felt like a complete jerk. He shouldn’t have taken her, she was just a kid. “I’ll fill the tub up with hot water that should help.” He told her rising from the bed. He frowned down at the tub as the water poured into it. He had really screwed up. His father would kill him when he found out. Not to mention what Josh would do. Walking back into the bedroom he found Kristen curled up in a ball under the sheet. She was crying softly. “Does it hurt that bad? Do you want me to call a Doctor?” He asked as he leaned over her to stroke her hair. He didn’t know anything about virgins. Maybe she needed a doctor; he was awful big for her.

“No.” Kristen replied shaking her head. The very idea of a Doctor examining her was mortifying.
“The water’s ready it should help.” He told her with a worried look. She was so young.
“Ok.” She said sitting up on the bed. She avoided his eyes as she scooted toward the edge. As she moved to the edge Trey noted the bloodstains on the sheets. There was more blood than he expected. “Here let me help you.’ He said as he picked her up in his arms. He carried her into the bathroom. Setting her down he reached for the sheet.
“I can manage.” Kristen told him clinging to the sheet, her cheeks turning red.
“I insist.” He said with a grin. He pulled the sheet down and picked her up. Kristen turned a deep shade of red. He was still naked she noticed. Her eyes settled briefly on his penis. No wonder she hurt so bad, he was huge! She gave a sigh of relief as she sank into the hot water. The tub was huge she thought as she settled back resting her head on the rim. She started to close her eyes but gasped in surprise as Trey joined her in the tub.
“I don’t think there’s room for both of us.” She squeaked keeping her eyes closed. She moved over as much as possible. He grinned as he settled into the tub pulling her onto his lap he leaned back.
“Relax.” He said with a smile. She was as stiff as a board. When she tried to move away from him he tightened his arms about her pulling her back. She could feel his hardness pressing against her butt, and it started her heart pounding. “Relax I’m not going to do anything to you.” He said as he began to gently massage her shoulders and neck. Slowly she began to relax against him. Closing her eyes she gave a contented sigh. The hot water was easing her soreness. His hands slipped down over her shoulders slowly until he was cupping the weight of her breasts in his hands. His thumbs gently rubbed over her nipples that had stiffened against his palm. She arched her back as fire shot threw her body. His hand traveled down over her belly and slipped between her legs causing her to moan as he thrust his fingers inside of her. Her muscles tightened around his fingers as he gently caressed her heated core. He took his time slowly bringing her to a peak so that she was moaning in need. The climax washed over her leaving her gasping for breath. He smiled easing her off his lap so he could rise from the tub. He took a towel from the towel rack and dried off. Turning to Kristen he held a towel open for her. She reluctantly climbed from the tub her body still throbbing from her release. She blushed as he quickly dried her body with the towel before tossing it aside. He picked her up and carried her toward the bed. Setting her down Trey straightened the covers and pulled them up over her. Kristen was both relieved and disappointed that he intended for them to go to sleep. She curled up on her side and was aware of Trey climbing into bed next to her. As tired as she was she knew she wouldn’t be able to sleep. Too much had happened. She didn’t know what she would tell Josh. He would be so hurt over what she had done. Why had she gone to bed with Trey? She barely knew him. What if her mother found out? She trembled at the thought.

“Are you cold?” Trey asked turning toward her. He had been lying on his back staring at the ceiling. He could feel her trembling. He pulled her into his arms to warm her.
“No. I’m scared.” She admitted enjoying the feel of his arms around her. She felt so safe in his arms.
“Why?” He asked as she nestled against his chest.
“I’m going to be in a lot of trouble.” She said quietly.
“You’re not going to get into any trouble.” He assured her. He was the one that was in trouble.
“You don’t know my mother.” She said raising her head to look at him.
“Don’t worry anymore tonight. Just get some rest.” He told her his hand lifted her chin so that he could kiss her. He intended it to be a brief kiss but fire arced between them and he couldn’t seem to stop kissing her. He rolled her over his mouth and hands moving all over her body. Rolling her onto her side he lifted her leg onto his hip and carefully entered her. She gasped as he pushed into her. But it didn’t hurt as bad this time. He moved slowly and it wasn’t long before the pain was replaced with pleasure. She cried out as wave after wave of pleasure washed over her. With a groan Trey emptied himself into her. Lying back he kept his arms around her as their bodies slowly separated. She fell asleep nestled in his arms.

Trey was preparing for the evening. He was tying the bow tie to his tux when a light knock sounded at his door. "Come in." Trey answered. Dino enters the room; he is also dressed in a tux, but still carries a dangerous air.
"Sir, I have your invitation for tonight. Elizabeth Montgomery is hosting a ball in order to raise money for her Aids foundation. All the top names will be there." Dino informed Trey as he handed over the invitations. "I have already informed Elizabeth that you will be coming, she is saving two seats at the best table in the room." Dino continued as Trey donned his jacket.
"Excellent, you've done well. Has Kristen arrived yet?" Trey asked, making sure his tie and jacket were straight.
"Yes Sir, She's dressing in the guest room. The hair and make up artist are assisting her. The boys are waiting in the living room, and the cars are downstairs ready to leave at anytime." Dino answered.
"Good lets join the boys, I want a word with them before we leave." Trey stated. Dino followed Trey as they left the master bedroom. They entered the living room, where five guys in tuxes were seated. "Okay boys were headed to a large ball tonight, so I want you all to be on guard. I don't want any trouble tonight so keep the peace." Trey ordered them. "Dino has arranged to have you seated near me. But try to be discreet in your observation. I don't want to alarm Kristen in any way so be nice." Trey said glancing at the door that led to the guestroom.
"Don't worry Mr. Harrington will take care of everything, right boys. The Boys all nod in agreement well aware of Dino and Trey's temper.
"Good, Jake, Mike, I want you guys to go downstairs and check out the lobby. Pete, you and Bruce head down to the ball and do a security check. Dino, call the other guys and tell them to get over to the ball I want men at every exit and entrance into the place, and get a copy of the guest list, check it over for trouble spots. The rest of you wait down by the elevator, I'll be along in a few minutes.
"Yes Sir, you heard him boys let's get to it." Dino ordered. He watches as the boys get up and file from the room. Nodding to Trey Dino heads out after them.
The door to the guestroom opened and Kristen stood hesitantly in doorway. Trey just stared in awe at Kristen who is gowned in a floor length emerald green gown. The skirt is full; the bodice is tight showing just enough of her breast to send his thoughts wandering. The sleeves are short and puffed. Her hair is piled on top of her head. An emerald, diamond necklace graces her neck. Matching earrings hang from each ear. And a beautiful bracelet graced her slender wrist. Kristen blushed under his stare but couldn't help but notice the admiration in his eyes. Kristen wondered if there had ever been a more handsome man than Trey in his black Tuxedo. Kristen walked toward Trey drawn by his gaze. Trey was almost knocked over by his powerful attraction to the young girl. Never had Trey beheld such beauty and innocence as Kristen processed. Clearing his throat Trey says...
"I have something for you." Trey walked over to the nearby couch, where he picks up a large colorful package. Bringing it to her he hands it over.

"Oh, but you shouldn't have you've already given me so much." Kristen said taking the large package she sits down in a chair. Opening the box, she is stunned by the sight of a beautiful, floor length, black mink coat. Taking it from the box she strokes it's softness in wonder.
"Put it on." Trey ordered softly as he stepped forward to assist her.
"It's beautiful." Kristen said gazing at her reflection in a nearby mirror.
"No, you’re beautiful the fur only adds to your own beauty." Trey stated in a husky voice filled with passion. And than unable to resist the urge to kiss her, his lips cover hers. He gently kissed her his arms pulling her close as he deepened the kiss tasting the inner recesses of her mouth. Desire shot through his body as he feels her responding to his kiss with youthful passion. Passion never tested by her virgin body. Mentally berating himself he breaks away. "Come we have a party to attend." Trey replied taking her hand in his and leading her from the room. In the hall Kristen notices two men standing by the elevator, both dressed in tuxes. When they reach the elevator Trey introduces them to her.
"Kristen this is Rick and A.J they work for my family as security guards. Guys this is Miss Kristen Anderson, she'll be accompanying me tonight." Trey said by way of introduction,
"Nice to meet you miss." Rick said kissing her hand.
"Same here Miss." A.J said also kissing her hand.
"It's nice to meet you both." Kristen said shyly.
The boys are momentarily awestruck by the girl’s innocent beauty. Remembering themselves they turn to push the button for the elevator. The door opens and they all step into it, the door closes. Two of Trey's men are waiting downstairs for them when the door opens Trey again introduces her to the men.
"Kristen, these two also work for me. The tall one is Jake and the other one is Pete. Guys this is Kristen Anderson." Trey introduces everyone once again.
"Nice to meet you miss." Pete said shaking her hand gently.
"Were at your service should you need anything." Jake replied shaking her hand.
"Thank you." Kristen replied shyly. Glancing across the room Kristen sees a large middle aged man head toward them. Every inch of him seemed to say danger, especially his eyes, which were focused in on her. Kristen backed into Trey, and before he knew what had happened she was standing behind him. Seeing Dino Trey understood her behavior.
"It's alright, that's just Dino he works for me, and he won't hurt you." Trey assured her slightly amused by her reaction to the older body guard.
"Sir, the cars are ready and the boys are in place." Dino informed Trey as he approached them. Dino noticed the girl still cowering behind Trey. "Is that the young woman you’re taking tonight Sir?" Dino asked of Trey.
"Yes, Dino this is Kristen Anderson, I'm afraid you scared her. Do you have to be so damn mean looking?" Trey asked stepping away from Kristen.

"I'm sorry if my appearance frightened you Miss." Dino said offering his large hand to her.
"That's alright; I'm somewhat of a coward I guess." Kristen answered taking his hand. Kristen feels extremely uneasy under his hawk like stare.
"Let's get going Dino." Trey said aware of Kristen's unease.
They cross the lobby together, Dino is out in front, and two men are to Kristen and Trey's Front while two men are at their rear. Kristen wondered why they needed so much security. Josh had never had security guards with him just his friends. But than Kristen figured Trey was the more powerful of the two. Kristen realized as they walked out of the hotel that she no longer gave much thought to Joshua, because Trey had captured her heart. All day he had treated her like a princess. No one had ever treated her in such a fashion, spoiling her with lavish gifts. Trey wasn't very talkative, but Kristen sensed that underneath his seriousness lied a great deal of feeling. I'm falling in love with Trey Kristen realized as she remembered his kiss and the passion it stirred. Arriving outside Kristen and Trey climb into a limo, Dino gets into the front seat with the driver; the other guys get into another limo. The cars pull away from the Hotel.
"Where are we going?" Kristen asked Trey.
"Were going to Elizabeth Montgomery's ball, you'll like it; there will be a lot of celebrities there." Trey answered. "By the way how did it go with Jenna?" Trey asked.
"Oh Trey, she was so nice to me we've become great friends." Kristen said happiness apparent in her voice.
"I'm glad you had fun." Trey said making a mental note to send Jenna a thank you.

"I'm having such a wonderful time I can't thank you enough for all you've done for me." Kristen said gazing up at Trey with warmth.
"It was nothing, I've enjoyed being with you." Trey answered her.
They both fall silent, each are wrapped in their own thoughts about each other. They soon arrive at the ball. Dino and the driver get out of the car the driver opens the door for Trey and Kristen. Trey steps from the car. After glancing around and receiving a nod from Dino, he reached in and helped Kristen out of the car. With his guards around him they enter the building where the ball is being held. Once inside Trey hands the invitation to a man at the door.
"Mr. Harrington, if you'll just follow Bobby over there he'll seat you at your table." The Doorman said indicating a man standing off to the side. Placing Kristen hand on his arm he followed the man indicated by the Doorman. They enter the ballroom. Kristen is overwhelmed as they enter by the stares of people who turn to gaze at them. Kristen’s hand tightened on Trey’s arm and she considered fleeing the room.
“Relax, they're not staring at you, they're staring at me." Trey assured her quietly.
"But why are they staring?" Kristen asked quietly.
"Because my father is the most powerful man in the world, and they’re afraid of him." Trey answered assuming a self-assured air. They continue into the room, Trey greeted several people as they passed through the crowd, others he merely nodded to. They arrive at their table and Kristen is stunned to see Joan Adams, Rebecca Edwards, Tom Miles, Nicole Williams, Charlie Shield, and his wife. All were famous movie stars. Trey seated Kristen at the table. He than took a seat.
"So Trey what have you been up to lately, I haven't seen you around very much?" Tom asked.
"Dad's been keeping me pretty busy with the business." Trey answered.
"Too bad you should have been at the track last week; there was a two car collision Dad lost his best car, boy was he ticked." Tom replied with amusement. The evening passed by as dinner and desert was served. Kristen was rather overwhelmed by all the silverware. But she paid close attention to the others doing exactly what they did. Trey watched her throughout the evening and was surprised at how well she handled her first formal dinner. After the desert dishes had been cleared away the guests moved into the ballroom to dance. Kristen’s nerves bottomed out at this point, since she couldn’t dance having never learned.
"Trey, where is the ladies room?" Kristen asked hoping to save herself some embarrassment.
"A.J will show you." Trey answered her. Trey signaled A.J to come over.
"What’s up Boss?" A.J asked as he reached Trey and Kristen.
"Show Kristen to the Ladies room." Trey ordered quietly.

"Sure Boss." A.J answered. "Follow me Miss." A.J said leading her away from Trey. Kristen followed A.J from the room, and into the hall. Walking down the hall Kristen sees many famous faces. They reach the Ladies room and Kristen entered it with a sigh of relief. Sinking into one of the plush chairs located in the waiting area Kristen ponders her dilemma. A.J waited outside for her. His eyes wandered over the various guests until they settle with unease on a tough looking middle-aged man who eyed him. A.J signaled Rick who sees the man also and heads off to find Trey. Kristen exited the Ladies room with a bunch of other ladies when A.J is turned away. Slipping past him Kristen slipped down another hallway hoping to find an exit. As Kristen wandered down the hallway looking for a way out, A.J asked a lady to check on Kristen. A moment later the lady comes back out and says.
"I'm sorry young man but there is nobody in there." The Lady informed A.J.
"Are you sure?" A.J asked anxiously. "Quite sure." The woman answered before walking away.
"Great the boss is going to kill me." A.J muttered to himself. He headed back to the ballroom hoping to find Kristen with Trey.

Meanwhile Kristen is still wandering down various hallways. She finally comes to an exit. Opening the door she sets off a silent alarm. Once outside she walked through a dark alley to the street out front unaware of the danger that lurked in the shadows. Someone grabs her. Strong hands turn her and she looks up into the cold eyes of Dino. She begins to struggle with fear.
"You shouldn't be out here Miss, the boss won't like it."
"Please let me go." Kristen begged him.
"I mean you no harm; I merely followed you here from the restrooms." Dino replied releasing the frightened girl.
"Why did you follow me?" Kristen asked backing away from him.
"It's my job Miss; the Harrington's pay me to protect them and all those they care for. I beg you Miss please come back with me, if anything should happen to you Trey will be very upset. Gazing at the man she sees his sincerity, and it calms her, she nods her consent. They are startled by the arrival of Police Officers. Trey had several drinks and was feeling the effects as he rarely drank. He turned away from a discussion of politics to see A.J returning without Kristen.
"Where is Kristen?" Trey asked in annoyance.
"I don't know, she slipped by me, I thought maybe she came back here." A.J answered sweat breaking out on his brow as he saw the anger in Trey's eyes.
"Get the boys and find her." Trey said his anger obvious. "Keep your eyes open Arnold and his boys are here." He informed them. "Where the hell is Dino, I need him?" Trey asked storming through the room to search for Kristen.

Dino and Kristen were surrounded by Police Officers.
"Okay what's going on here, what are you two doing out here?" He asked.
"I'm sorry Sir it's my fault! I was looking for the exit and I must have gone through the wrong door. This man was just showing me back to the ball." Kristen answered when Dino remained silent.
"Next time try not to set off the alarm Miss." He replied. "Okay boys lets get back to work." He ordered. The Police quickly leave the scene.

When they were gone Kristen followed Dino out of the Alley and onto the sidewalk that led to the entrance. Arriving at the entrance they enter the building. Once inside Rick rushes to Dino relief apparent in her eyes.
"Thank God you found her, the Boss is really ticked. He's looking for you, Arnold's here and the Boss is in one of his moods." Rick said quickly filling Dino in on the situation. Trey entered the hall. He is relieved to see Kristen standing with Dino unharmed. He starts toward them as they head his way. Once they reached each other Trey says "Were leaving signal the car, and the others." Gazing at Kristen he continues..."I'll leave a check for Elizabeth but I've had enough of this charade for one night.”
"Yes Sir." Dino answered noticing the way Trey looked at Kristen. Knowing that Trey was in love with this girl, Dino silently pledged his life to her protection. He heads off to carry out Trey's orders. The limos are summoned. Trey and Kristen exit the building moments later. Climbing into the limo's the Harrington group heads home for the night. Inside the car Trey turned to Kristen and placing a finger under her chin raises her head so as to look into her eyes.
"Why did you run off like that?" Trey asked. "I was worried about you." He continued.
"I'm sorry; I didn't mean to worry you." Kristen replied gazing up at him. "I can't dance." Kristen answered his question clearly embarrassed by her answer.
"Why didn't you just say so?" Trey asked studying her beautiful face.
"I didn't want to disappoint you." Kristen answered quietly.
"Don’t worry, I’ll teach you how to dance." He replied. "Did you enjoy the meal?" He asked.
"Yes, it was fun meeting all those stars." Kristen answered.
They fall silent each wondering at the others feelings. The car continued through the city. They arrive at the Hotel. Stepping from the car Trey helps Kristen from the car. They enter the lobby. Crossing to the elevators, Trey pushes the button and they enter the elevator accompanied by Dino, Rick, and A.J. They are silent throughout the brief ride upstairs. Exiting the elevator they head down the hall to the room door. Dino unlocks the door, and the three guards precede them into the room. After checking the hotel suites out the guards re-enter the living area.

I was reading the news from cnn. com the other day when I came across a terrible article it read "A day after reporting his four young children were missing, a shrimp fisherman broke down and confessed that he threw them off an 80-foot-high bridge to their deaths, authorities said Wednesday.Missing and presumed dead were 4-month-old Danny Luong; 1-year-old Lindsey Luong; 2-year-old Hannah Luong; and 3-year-old Ryan Phan. Phan is not the man's biological child, but Luong raised him from infancy, authorities said." I was shocked to read about this. I don't understand how you could throw Four babies off a bridge. The oldest child was only three! It makes me sick to think that someone could throw an innocent child to their death. My heart literally breaks for these three little angels that never had a chance to live. Even now tears gather in my eyes for the lost little ones. What a terrible way to die. I can only pray that they were killed instantly by the fall and didn't drown. The authorities say this man may face the death penalty. May??? How can there even be a question of him facing the death penalty? He through for babies off a bridge the youngest of which was one month! In my opinion we should take him to that same bridge tie a rock to his foot and toss his ass over. Let him suffer the same death that these little angels suffer. The evil in this world is at times overwhelming. I'm a mother and every time I hear of a child that has been killed my hear breaks and all I can think of is how I would feel if someone tossed my babies off a bridge. The killer in this case should be relieved I'm not the mother of these four children because he would never make it to trial alive.

Back at the Harrington Office building John is working on some paper work when a buzzer goes off on his desk. Pushing a button he says "Yes Ronda."
"Mr. Harrington, Tyler's principal is on line one." Ronda said.
"Thank you Ronda, I'll take the call." John answered picking up his phone and pushing a button. "John Harrington speaking." John said into the phone.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you at work Mr. Harrington but your son was involved in a fight this morning." The principal said with a smug expression. "He hurt a kid pretty bad." The principal went on to say. "Since this is his second fight this year. I'm afraid were not going to be able to accept him back next year." The principal said enjoying his victory over the Harrington family.
"I'll speak to my son about the fight, but as for his not being allowed back next year. I doubt very much if the school board will support such an idea, since I’ve made several large donations to them...” John said barely concealing his anger. "Now if you'll excuse me I am a busy man." John hung up the phone before the principal could respond to his last remark.
In his office the enraged principal slammed his phone down... "Damn you and your whole family, one of these days you'll get what's coming to you Harrington." He replied pure hatred in his voice.

Kristen and Trey arrived at a very fancy restaurant. Stepping from the limo Trey assisted Kristen out. They than entered the restaurant together. Heads all over the room turned to look at them and the room went silent. Under their stares Kristen started to back away, but Trey's hold tightened on her silently reassuring her. With a smile Trey nodded to everyone. Everyone immediately turned their attention back to their various conversations. The manager approached to lead them to their table.
"Good morning, Mr. Harrington, if you'll follow me I'll show you to your table." He said before leading them to their table where they were seated. "Is everything to your liking Sir?" He asked praying for a positive response.
"Yes." Trey answered. "We'd like to see menus immediately." Trey ordered.
"Yes Sir." He snapped his fingers and two menus’ appear immediately. Handing one to each of them. "Would you care for a beverage while you are deciding?"
"A glass of orange juice." Kristen says before opening the menu. Kristen is startled when a glass is immediately placed in front of her.
"I'll have a cup of coffee." Trey says without looking up from his menu. A cup is immediately filled for him. "Do you see anything you like?" Trey asked Kristen setting his menu aside.
"It all looks so delicious." Kristen said from behind her menu. "Can I get bacon and eggs with an order of pancakes?" Kristen asked.
"Of course Miss, you can have whatever you like." He answered quickly.
"Okay, I'll have that, and if it’s not too much trouble could I get my eggs scrambled." Kristen asked.
"Will there be anything else?" He asked politely
"I don't suppose you have any hot chocolate." Kristen asked.
"I'm sure we do." He lied smoothly aware of Trey's temper.

"I'll just have Bacon, eggs, and sausage with toast on wheat bred and coffee." Trey ordered. "Bring us a basket of fruit and some muffins." Trey said before handing over his menu.
"Of course Sir." Taking the menu he nodded at one of his waiters in record time the fruit and muffins were on the table in front of them as was the butter and jam.

The breakfast continued in a pleasant fashion. Midway through their breakfast Kristen's fork dropped to her plate and she stared in stunned silence as Jenna Pearson entered the restaurant. Turning to see whom she was gazing at; Trey nodded to Jenna Pearson. Turning back to Kristen he said...
"What's the matter it’s only Jenna Pearson." Trey said matter of fact like.
"Only Jenna Pearson, she's my idol." Kristen said astonished to be in the same room as her.
"Is she; would you like to meet her?" Trey said with a smile.
"Do you know her?" Kristen asked hopefully.
"No, but she knows me and that's all that matters." Trey said. "I'll arrange for you to meet her this afternoon." Trey replied.
Kristen only nodded doubting she would ever get to meet Jenna but it was enough to sit in the same room as her beloved idol. After breakfast they left the restaurant and climbed into the limo.
"I guess you have to go back to work." Kristen says disappointed.

"As a matter of fact, I've decided to take the day off. I'm taking you shopping. You'll need a new dress if you’re going to meet Jenna." Trey answered noting her disappointment and finding it encouraging. His father would have a fit, but it didn't matter, she mattered. Kristen gazed up at him and felt her blood warm at the way he looked at her. Trey and Joshua appeared to be as different as night and day. And although she loved Joshua she found herself powerfully drawn to Trey.

Trey and Kristen entered another fancy boutique in Beverly Hills. Just as before Trey asked to see the manager. This time an elegantly dressed older lady appeared from the back of the store.
"Trey darling, how nice to see you again!" The Lady said as she neared them. "What can I do for you today?" She asked giving Kristen the once over.
"Beverly, I'd like you to set Kristen up with a whole new wardrobe." Trey stated.
"Why yes we can certainly do that." Beverly replied with some surprise. "If you'll follow me Miss will get you started." Beverly said to Kristen, who was still too stunned to reply.
"And Beverly, I would like you to oversee the fitting of the entire wardrobe." Trey replied firmly.
"Of course." Beverly assured him before leading Kristen to the Back. Turning to one of her assistants she said... "Mary sees that Mr. Harrington receives what ever he desires." Trey watched as Kristen disappeared from view before turning his attention to the assistant Beverly assigned him.

"Can I get you anything Sir?" She asked her eyes appraising his good looks. "Bring me a cup of coffee, and a phone." Trey ordered the pretty girl without even a glance her way as he studied his watch with a frown. The girl scurried away to do his bidding. Trey headed toward a waiting area where he took a seat in an oversized black leather chair. A few seconds later Mary returned with another assistant that pours fresh brewed coffee for him. Mary handed him the phone...
"Will there be anything else Sir?" Mary asked.
"That will be all for now." Trey answered not missing the hidden invitation. With a look of disappointment Mary leaves with the assistant in tow. Trey punched a number into the phone and listened to it ring. Rhonda is at her desk typing something into the computer when the phone rings. Rhonda picked it up and says... "Harrington Enterprises."
"Rhonda this is Trey, I won't be coming back to the office today, I'm taking the day off." Trey informed her. "Please inform my father, that's all." Trey continued before hanging up. In her office Rhonda heard the click of the phone as Trey hung up before she could replie. She sighed in frustration as she also hung up. John exited his office and crossed to her desk with several files.
"Rhonda file these for me." John said handing her the files in question. "Is my son back yet? I need to see him?" John questioned her.
"He just called to say he won't be back, he's taking the day off." Judy answered.
"Did he say where he was at, I need him here." John asked angrily.

"No, he didn't say but I'm sure that blonde he was with is his reason for not returning." Judy answered slyly.
"Well I hope he enjoys himself, because when I get my hands on him, he may not be able to enjoy another woman for quite a while." John stated before storming back into his office and slamming the door.

Kristen was having the time of her life trying on different outfits, enjoying being fussed over by so many people. In the waiting area Trey punched in another number and listened as the phone rang. Across town a bunch of guys were standing around a pool table, shooting pool, in Trey's parents’ home, when a phone rings. One of the guys answered the phone.
"This is Joe." Joe said into the phone.
"Joe this is Trey get me Dino." Trey ordered.
"Sure Boss." He answered before turning to say... "Dino its Trey he wants to speak with you." Joe yelled over the noise. Immediately the room goes quiet. A tough looking middle aged man got up from a chair across the room and walked toward Joe who handed him the phone. Taking the phone Dino says..."This is Dino."
"Dino, I need you to do me a favor and call the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Book the Presidential suite for tonight." Trey said. "Than get a hold of James and find out what the family's been invited to for tonight." Trey asked. "Pick the most glamorous of the invitations and inform whomever in charge that I and a guest will be attending." Trey continued by saying. "That is all Dino."

"Yes Sir, I'll get right on it." Dino replied hanging up the phone.
"So what's the deal are we on tonight?" Joe asked of Dino.
"The boss needs Hotel Reservations, must be a woman." Dino commented before turning to the others. "You boys better prep yourselves up a bit, were going to a glamorous party." Dino ordered. The guys immediately left to do Dino's bidding. Dino picked up the phone.

John is bent over some paperwork, when his wife enters his office. He looked up from his work as she closed the door, and crossed the room to his desk.
"Darling, are you free for lunch, because I'm absolutely starved?" Jessica said with an engaging smile. "I thought maybe we could go to the club for lunch, since we haven't eaten there in ages." Jessica continued to John who gazed at her lovingly before sighing.
"I'm afraid you'll have to go without me." John answered running a hand through his hair. "Our Son ran off with some woman, leaving only me to straighten out this mess." John said impatience apparent in his voice as he indicated the files stacked on his desk.
"Is he off with another one of his floozies, I don't no what is wrong with that boy I raised him better than this." Jessica said angrily. "I think it's about time I had a good talk with him, he's getting entirely out of hand." Jessica replied pacing back and forth in front of the desk in agitation.
"I'll speak to him when he turns up, but I doubt it will do any good." John replied. "He's a grown man Jess, and I can't control him the way I can our other children." John admitted getting up from his desk and turning toward the window behind his desk. "Something happened to him while he was in Europe; he's not the same boy he was. He's a lot harder than he was, he's always been rebellious, but now it's like he's built a wall around himself. I just wish I knew how to break the wall down. He reminds me so much of myself at his age, and yet there's something darker there, something I don't understand. We used to be so close; I just wish I knew how to find the son I lost in Europe." John said as he gazed out the window.
"Sometimes I think Trey has no feelings at all, and at other times I can see the feelings hiding behind that stone wall he has built around himself. What I don't understand is why the wall is there. I understand Joshua’s reasons for being so remote, he lost a wife, but Trey has no reason for his behavior." Jessica remarked.
"There's a reason Jess, he’ll tell us what it is someday. Besides he can't hide behind that wall forever, someday a woman will come a long and she'll tear those walls down with her love for him." John answered turning toward his wife. "Just as you tore through all my defenses so many years ago." John replied lovingly.
"I hope your right." Jessica said walking into her husband’s arms.

Across town Trey and Kristen are leaving the store followed by a half a dozen clerks their arms loaded with packages. Kristen is smiling as she steps into the waiting limo. Trey nodded to Beverly and gets into the limo behind Kristen. The clerks load the packages into the trunk; the driver closes the trunk and gets into the limo. A moment later the car pulls away from the curb, leaving Beverly to wonder about the young girl. Shaking her head Beverly entered her store behind her clerks.
Inside her house Jenna walks to the ringing phone in her living room. Picking up the phone she says hello...
"Yes, this is she.” Jenna said after a moment. She listens for a few moments before saying. "I guess it would be alright, when will she be coming?" Jenna asked. There is a brief pause. "This afternoon, that's not giving me much notice." Jenna said clearly annoyed. "Yes, I realize that the Harrington's are a powerful family, you don't have to tell me that." Jenna answered in a steady voice. "Alright send her over if it's that important to the Harrington's." Jenna said giving in. "I'll see her at four." Jenna said before hanging up.

Later that day at Jenna's home she and Marco are in the kitchen. Jenna is pouring a cup of coffee and Marco is seated at the table.
"So when is the little Princess due to arrive?" Marco asked from the table.
"She'll be here at four o'clock." Jenna stated annoyance apparent in her voice.
"If it bothers you so much why didn't you say no?" Marco said noting her mood.
"It's not meeting a fan that bothers me; it's the fact that I was told when to expect her. They never even asked me if it would be alright they just assume." Jenna answered coming to the table to sit down with her coffee.
"You should have told them no." Marco replied.
"Do you have any idea what would have happened had I denied a Harrington request. I would have been driven right out of this town. I can't afford to be enemies with the most powerful family in the world. No it's much better this way, besides at the very least the Harrington's will now owe me a favor." Jenna said beginning to cheer up.
"Well I'm going upstairs to work, if you need me just holler." Marco said getting up from his chair and leaving the room.

Moments later a maid informed Jenna of Kristen's arrival. The maid tells her that Kristen is in the living room. Getting up from her chair Jenna heads for the living room. Arriving there she sees Kristen who is looking at some pictures on the wall. Jenna studied the well dressed, young woman with interest for several moments. Seeing that her gaze is directed at a picture of her son Jenna said. "Those are of my son Max." Kristen jumped at her words and turned toward her. Jenna is surprised by the apparent fear in the girl’s eyes. Kristen recovers enough to say...
"I'm Kristen Anderson; I'm a big fan of yours Mrs. Pearson." Kristen said obviously embarrassed by her statement.
"Yes, Mr. Harrington told me you were, have a seat." Jenna said indicating the couch.
"I hope you don't mind my stopping in Mrs. Pearson, but I'm only in town for a few days, Trey said you wouldn't mind." Kristen said taking a seat.
"No it was no trouble; I had nothing else planned for tonight. And please call me Jenna." She said feeling oddly protective over Kristen. "Where are you from?" Jenna asked.
"I'm from Spokane, Washington. I'm here visiting my cousin Jamie." Kristen answered nervously.
"Are you having fun here in L.A?" Jenna asked.
"Oh yes, I'm having so much fun the Harrington's are so nice." Kristen stated.
"Are you a friend of the family?" Jenna asked curiously.
"No, I just know Joshua, and his brother Trey. I met Josh at a beach party a couple of days ago." Kristen answered. "Trey is the one that arranged my meeting you, I told him you were my idol, and it was really sweet of him to ask you to see me." Kristen rambled on.
"It's always nice to meet a fan." Jenna said touched by Kristen's saying that she is her idol.
"I'm your biggest fan. I watched your TV show all the time. I've seen all your movies. I've read your book; in fact I've read every article that has ever been done on you." Kristen replied. "I'm so glad that you agreed to meet me, this is a really big dream come true." Kristen continued shyly.
"I'm glad you enjoy my work so much." Jenna said with a smile.
"Oh, it's not just that I've loved you every since you answered my letter that I wrote to you. I wrote everyone on Dallas but you were the first to answer and you sent me my first autograph. I still have both items." Kristen said with obvious devotion. Jenna can't help but be moved by Kristen's warmth.
"How would you like to meet my son Max?" Jenna asked.
"I would love to meet him." Kristen answered surprised by the offer. And with that they get up from the couch and Jenna leads her from the room.

Later that day a limo pulls up in front of Jenna's house. Jenna walks Kristen to the door. The two have by than become fast friends.
"I'm so glad I got to meet you Kristen, it's been fun getting to know you. I hope you'll stay in touch." Jenna said her arm around Kristen.
"Oh I will." Kristen assured her happily. Jenna opens the door leading to the driveway. They walk out into the drive where a limo is waiting for Kristen. The driver opens the door to the car.
"I guess this is goodbye." Kristen said sadly.
"Not goodbye, I have a feeling I will see you again." Jenna said and with that they hug. They separate and Kristen gets into the car. The driver closes the door, and gets into the car. Jenna watched as the car pulled out of the driveway. In the car Kristen asked the driver where they were headed.
"To the Beverly Hills Hotel, Mr. Harrington is waiting there." The driver answered. Kristen fell silent and stared out the window watching the various surroundings as they drove toward the hotel. Turning away from the window Kristen reached for the phone. She dials her cousin’s number.
Jamie hears the phone and goes to pick it up. "Hello." Jamie says into the phone.
"Hi Jamie, its Kristen I just wanted to let you know that I'm okay. I won't be home tonight; the Harrington's have invited me to be their guest. I hope you don't mind." Kristen lied gently.
"Sure that's okay, I trust Josh." Jamie replied.
"Great, I'll see you tomorrow." Kristen replied before hanging the phone up. She hadn’t bothered to correct her cousin's assumption that she was with Josh.

In his room Joshua ran a hand through his hair in frustration before going to his bedside to pick up the phone. With a sigh he dials Kristen's number, he listened as the phone rang...
Kristen was lying awake in bed unable to sleep as her thoughts all surround Joshua. When she heard the phone ring, she quickly got up and hurried into the living room to answer the phone before it woke anyone. Picking up the phone Kristen said "Hello!"...
"Hi Kristen." Joshua said smiling at the sound of her voice.
"Josh its late." Kristen said breathlessly.
"I know. Did I wake you?" Josh wondered aloud.
"No, I couldn't sleep." Kristen answered.
"Couldn't be that you were thinking about me." Josh teased gently. Hearing no reply but sensing her blush Joshua smiled and said with regret. "Kristen I have to go out of town on business for a few days."
"But I only have a week in L.A. Will I see you before I leave?" Kristen asks her heartbreaking.
"Don't worry I'll only be gone for a couple days, I'll be back in plenty of time to see you." Joshua assured her. "Maybe I can even convince your grandmother to stay in L.A a little longer" Joshua suggested.
"I'll miss you." Kristen said quietly tears forming in her eyes.
"I'll miss you too." Joshua answered sadly. "I'll see you when I get back." Joshua said.
"Okay, bye!" Kristen said sensing that things would not be the same between them when he returned.
"Bye, see you soon." Joshua said before hanging up.

Chapter Six

The next day Kristen got up very early and dressed quickly. She than called the operator and asked for the number for a Taxi service. She wrote the number down, hung up and than dialed the number. She listened as the phone rang. Hearing "Hello" Kristen said.... "Yes, I need a cab right away my address is N.5466 Rock Boulevard." Kristen answered. She listened for a few seconds more nodded, and than hung up. Going to her cousin’s phone book she started flipping through the pages until she found the address for Harrington Enterprises. She quickly wrote down the address, before writing a note to leave for her cousin so that she wouldn't worry. She set the note by the phone, before heading out the door and down to the parking lot to wait for the cab.

Across town Joshua was leaving his room suitcase in hand. Gazing down the hall he watched as his older brother greeted their mother cordially in the hallway before continuing down the hall briefcase in hand. He watched as his mother started toward him. He walked toward her. Setting down his suitcase he leaned down to kiss his mother on the cheek....
"Mother it’s so good to see you." Joshua replied with a smile.
"It’s good to see you Josh; I've missed you so very much." Jessica admitted she had always favored Joshua. He had such a warm nature unlike his older brother who had a much more aloft nature. And yet it was Trey that reminded her most of John when he was younger. Seeing her son’s suitcase she asked. "Joshua where are you going?"
"I have to fly to Arizona on business." Joshua answered.

"Surely you don't have to leave today?" She asked. "Can't it wait until tomorrow?" Jessica asked slightly annoyed.
"Not according to Dad." Joshua answered glancing at his watch before continuing. "I'm on my way to the airport now." He reached down to pick up his suitcase. "I'll see you when I get back I guess." Josh said turning to head down the hallway and out the front door, where several limos waited. He handed his suitcase to one of the drivers. Trey exited the house as the driver took the bag. Joshua turned to look at his older brother. "Good morning Trey, did you come to see me off?" Joshua asked in a sarcastic tone.
Trey gazed at his brother for a moment before answering with a frown. "Are you going some place?" He asked.
"I'm going to Arizona, I thought you knew." Joshua answered confused by his brother's question.
"Oh, well I guess I'll see you when you get back if I'm still here." Trey said. "I've got to get to the office, have a good trip." Trey said before getting into one of the waiting limos. Joshua watched as his brother's limo pulled away, before getting into another limo. The limo pulled away. Inside the house Jessica found her husband at the breakfast table alone.
"Good morning Darling, how did you sleep?" John asked gazing at his wife.
"Why did you send Joshua to Arizona?" Jessica asked in annoyance ignoring his question. She took a seat near his.

"He's taking care of some serious business." John answered, noting the note of anger in her voice.
"I thought we came down here to check on him. How can we help him if you keep sending him away?" Jessica said. "Why didn't you send Trey?" She asked clearly annoyed.
"Trey is taking care of some business here in L.A, and was unable to go." John answered. "Besides Joshua was the one to put the Arizona project together, and if he's going to work at Harrington, he's got to pull his own weight." John stated firmly.
"I know but I'm really worried about him, now’s not the time for him to be away from his family." Jessica stated with concern.
"It's only for a few days he'll be fine." John replied getting up from his chair and walking over to kiss his wife's cheek. "I'm going to the office I've got several meetings, I'll be back later." John said giving his wife's shoulder a squeeze before leaving the room.

Kristen arrived at the Harrington building. Going inside, she was surprised by the number of security guards. Taking a deep breath she headed toward the elevators. There was a building directory on the wall that listed Harrington Enterprise’s office, as being on the top floor. Stepping into an elevator Kristen pushed the top floor number. When the doors finally opened it was to a reception area. She saw another elevator that apparently went up to the Harrington offices. Since, it was surrounded by several security guards. She walked toward the doors this time she's stopped...

"Excuse me Miss, but what is your name, and where are you going?" The guard asked of her blocking her path.
"My name Kristen Anderson and I'm here to see Joshua Harrington." Kristen stated bravely all the while praying he would let her by.
"Do you have an appointment with Mr. Harrington because your names not on my list." The guard stated.
"No, I don't have an appointment but if you'll call Josh he'll tell you who I am." Kristen said.
"Wait here I'll check." The guard said.
Kristen watched as he turned to leave. The elevator doors opened seeing her chance; she hurried into it before anyone else could stop her. She hurriedly pushed the button, as the doors closed she heard the guard cry out for her to stop. A few seconds later the doors open up and she steps out of the elevator she hurries down a hall into the reception area located just outside of the Harrington Offices. This time a secretary halts her passage.
"Hold it right there Miss." The secretary ordered.
In the next moment Trey's door opened; and seeing Kristen standing there looking so very frightened, he crossed the floor to Kristen and took her arm...
"It’s alright Ronda I'll handle this you get back to work." Trey said leading Kristen toward his office. He led her into his office and over to a chair facing his desk.
"If you’re looking for Josh he left on business this morning." Trey said seating her in the chair that faced his rather large desk.

"Oh, I thought maybe I could catch him before he left." Kristen said her disappointment apparent in her voice.
"Don't worry he'll be back in a few days." Trey said noticing her apparent sadness. "Would you like something to drink?" Trey asked changing the subject.
"No, I don't want to take up anymore of your time I know how busy you must be." Kristen said rising from her chair.
"I'm not really that busy." Trey lied not wanting her to leave. "In fact I'm hungry, I haven't eaten yet." Trey said gazing at her. "How about having breakfast with me?" Trey asked and seeing her indecision he continued. "I know I'm not Josh but I guarantee I won't bite." Trey assured her.
"Why not, I am hungry." Kristen answered after a moment.
"Great, I know a great restaurant." Trey replied leading her by the arm out of his office. Once in the outer office Trey stopped to speak to the secretary... "Ronda, I'm going out for awhile, I'll be back later." Trey informed the secretary quietly. He than took Kristen’s hand and led her to the elevator. He pressed a button and the doors opened and they step into the elevator, the doors close.
Seconds later John's office door opened and he headed toward Trey’s office door. Seeing this, the Secretary said...
"Sir, Trey stepped out a moment ago he said he would be back later." The secretary said from her desk.
"Did he say where he was going?" John asked in annoyance.
"No, but he left with a pretty blonde." The secretary answered smugly.

John didn’t reply he just shakes his head and mutters something that sounds like a swear word to Ronda, he than heads back to his office.

In a very fancy restaurant in Beverly Hills a hostess hurries to answer a ringing phone. The hostess listens for a moment before handing the phone to the manager...
"A Mr. Trey Harrington wishes to speak with you Sir." The Hostess said handing the phone to her boss.
"Mr. Harrington how nice to hear from you" The manager greeted him. "A table oh yes Sir, I'll have one ready no problem." The manager said as he hung up the phone. "Monica have our best table prepared, Mr. Harrington and a guest will be here shortly." The Manager ordered.
"But Sir, that table is already taken." She pointed out.
"By whom?" The manager asked sweat breaking out on his brow.
"Darren Spelling and his wife." She answered.
"Move Mr. Spelling to our second best table." The Manager ordered. "Will just have to move everyone over a table that's all." The managers said in an even tone.
"But Sir couldn't we just give Mr. Harrington another available table?" The hostess argued.
"We could if Trey Harrington was reasonable man, but he's not, he wants only the best and he shall have it." The manager stated firmly. "Now stop arguing with me and get to work we don't have much time." The Manager snapped. The hostess immediately snapped to it.

Trey and Kristen stopped at a boutique on their way. "What are we doing here I thought we were going to eat?" Kristen asked quietly of him.
"We are, but the restaurant were going to is pretty fancy, so I thought we had better buy you a new outfit something more fitting for the occasion." Trey answered gently.
"Oh!" Kristen said falling silent as she realized she was dressed in jeans and a plain old T-shirt. "I don't have very much money on me." Kristen told Trey, her voice filled with shame. He was taken a back, any other woman he knew would have expected him to pay for the outfit.
"Don't worry about it I have plenty of money." Trey answered gently.
"It wouldn't be right to put you to that expense, I'm sure there's something here I can afford." Kristen replied hopefully eyeing the clothes racks. Trey smiled at her. Her, gesture only served to create more unwanted feelings.
"It would be my pleasure to buy you a new outfit, after all this restaurant was my idea." Trey pointed out. Kristen started to answer but fell silent when she noticed a man headed toward them.
"Hello Mr. Harrington it is so nice to see you again." Miguel greeted them politely, noticing Kristen standing beside Trey. "How may I help you?" He asked of Trey.
"Yes, will be eating at the Palm restaurant this morning, and I would like you to find suitable attire for my friend." He answered. "We want only the best Miguel." He warned.
"Of course." Miguel replied quickly noticing Trey's dark frown. "If you'll come with me Miss, we'll get you fixed up right away.
Kristen glanced at Trey who nodded for her to go ahead. Trey than took a seat in the waiting area picking up a newspaper he scanned the business columns. A short time later Kristen came out, wearing a beautiful pale pink dress, that hugged her figure, showing her perfect shape. The dress added a mature look while also setting off her alluring innocence.
"This dress is put out by a top designer that’s why it’s quite expensive, it is well worth the price as you can see." Miguel said noticing the look of longing on Trey's face as he gazed at the young girl.
"We'll take it." Trey answered. "Charge it to my account, she'll wear the dress." Trey stated. "Come on we'd better go eat, before I starve." Nodding to Miguel, Trey led Kristen out of the store. Outside the limo is waiting for them and they step into it. Miguel watched them depart before turning to his staff and saying... "Remember that girls face you just saw Trey's future wife." And with those words he leaves his startled staff.
"You shouldn't have bought the dress it’s really expensive I saw the price tag." Kristen told him once they were seated in the car.
"Don't worry; I don't think one dress will break me." Trey answered gazing at her. Blushing Kristen dropped her gaze to her folded hands.
