I had headed outside later in the evening to chat and smoke a cigarette with Lars. ‘You’re doing great!’ he reassured me, rubbing my bare arm affectionately. ‘James is so proud of you, he couldn’t wait to show you off’. We turned our heads to look inside. James was chatting loudly and laughing with Rob and his wife Chloe. ‘Alright, I’m gonna go and gather people for presents and get this cake ready to go, alright?’ Lars was ever the organised professional at social events. ‘Okay, thanks!’ I laughed a courteous smile. It seemed so long since we’d slept together. I was glad that all sexual feelings between us were gone, it really had been only a client relationship with Lars, and he was now a keen friend. I inhaled the cold air on my own for few minutes before the man who was on my mind joined me outside. He sat with me on the shallow stone ledge that surrounded the pool. Only the lights that illuminated the water lit the scene. ‘So Hannah’ David began in interest. ‘I hear you’re something of an expert in companionship—and I’m sure my brother appreciates it’. I was completely quiet as spoke, looking straight ahead at the ripples in the water. I knew clearly where this was going. ‘How long do you think it will be until everyone in that room knows that you were a call girl my brother paid for, and what do you think it will do to his reputation?’ David asked, his voice was cold and knowing. He paused for a moment to let his words sink in. ‘It’ll get out, the press will prey on you both forever about this. They will drag you through your own sordid history, they will unfold every moment of it, I swear to God you will regret it’ David predicted. ‘I am aware of that’ I said, straightening myself. I would not take a threat. I stood to leave. I wobbled on my heels dangerously close to the pool and he grabbed my wrist tightly, steadying me. He didn’t let go as I’d hoped. ‘This isn’t an easy gig, being his girl’ he warned. ‘The press, they will slaughter you’. His other hand smoothed my ass as he walked me around the edge of the pool for balance. We stopped on the grassy strip that lead back to the house. ‘Shit, you’re beautiful’ he breathed honestly in an attempt to flatter me. His eyes caught the curves of my chest, just like his brother. I didn’t respond to his compliment. He had both his hands on me and I felt distinctly uneasy. He tried a more intimate comment. ‘I hear you suck cock like an Angel’ he purred directively. One of his large hands smoothed my neck hopefully, and the other put pressure on my shoulder as though I might drop to my knees. I resisted his obvious gesture. ‘I’ve been around girls like you before’ he continued. ‘You need a little convincing sometimes….’ I knew his best attempt at blackmail was yet to come. ‘If you suck my cock I’ll help you out …put the press off the trail when they find out about your past, because believe me, they will’ he tested. ‘They love a family member with an inside story--I’ll throw them off the scent for you when the time comes, and sell them a false story anytime you like. I’m sure we can come to some sort of agreement?’ he cleared his throat like it was a deal breaker. He unzipped himself imperatively in the awkward silence. ‘Just suck it, baby’ he growled. His hand still held my left wrist tightly. I turned my head away, I didn’t want to see what I knew he offered me. ‘Or, perhaps I could tell the press you’re booking clients here in San Francisco!’ he threatened. Now I knew his line of attack, it would be a brutally false story to destroy my relationship with James. I had no choice: I dropped to my knees to take him in my mouth. His greedy mouth spasmed a quick moan. ‘Oh shit, darling! That’s good!’ he moaned. It was the same open voice that James used, but I tried not to compare it. His right hand on my head urged me to continue, his left still held my wrist tightly. I made to breath for a moment. ‘You keep going until I say’ he commanded rudely. He swallowed an urgent moan. We were secluded in the dark garden, 100 metres from the back door. ‘Oh that’s it!’ he panted. I felt his cock twitching hungrily in my mouth. The sound of the party increased as the patio door slid open. The sound met the cool night air. ‘Hannah?’ Lars’ voice called into the garden where he knew he had left me. It was the perfect escape. I pulled my wrist forcefully from David’s grip, escaping the scene. ‘Lars?’ I called back loudly. David didn’t dare follow me immediately. I returned inside. ‘We’re getting ready to do the happy birthday thing…’ he began, he saw the fear on my face. ‘Are you okay?’ he asked, his face tugged me into the kitchen. The white marble bench was a graveyard of empty beer bottles. ‘Mmhmmm!’ I nodded fast, but he was not fooled. I knew if I spoke the truth I would cry. David’s forcefulness had surprised me. It had been many years since a client or anyone for that matter, had forcibly controlled me like that. I could see Lars’ cunning face deciphering my lie. ‘Here, take this’ he said, handing me a small white plate, a cake knife, and matches. I saw that he had already set the candles in the frets of the frosted guitar. The lounge door slid open again and David stepped in to rejoin the party. Lars’ eyes bulged knowingly wide. ‘Did you….?’ Lars’ voice was uncertain. I shook my head seriously. ‘He fucking knows!’ I bleated quietly, nearly into a cry. Lars’ couldn’t believe what he was hearing. ‘Shit!’ Lars realised. ‘You should’ve told me, I’d have never left you alone with him out there!’ he whispered back urgently. I was incredibly grateful, I had not expected Lars to become my guardian. ‘James is looking for you Hannah!’ Chloe’s sweet face poked into the kitchen. ‘Alright’ I smiled kindly. I joined James at the table where a large group of guests stood. He was waiting patiently, knowing the cake that was Lars’ surprise would be on its way out. He tugged me close to him in front of his friends, wrapping his arms around my body warmly—he kissed me emphatically. As he did, a small wolf-whistle erupted from the crowd. His eyes settled lovingly on mine as we broke from our kiss. Lars carried out the cake a moment later: it was a magnificent frosted white cake in the shape of an explorer. James laughed whole-heartedly at the secret reveal. ‘That’s awesome!’ he exclaimed, leaning in closer to inspect the detail. The strings were thinly piped chocolate lines, set on a thick white frosting for the body of the guitar, and the candles made convincing frets along the neck. The dials were made from round liquorice. James thanked his friend for the incredible surprise, and Lars began a nervous rendition of Happy Birthday and the guests joined in. James smiled widely, surveying his gathered friends, before his loving eyes fell once more to my face. I sung the words back to him. ‘Happy Birthday dear James….Happy birthday to you!’ He kissed me warmly once more. ‘Make a wish’ I whispered. Lars had lit the candles as we sang. The flames flickered , reflecting in James’ eyes. He made to my ear in a small whisper. ‘I love you, I want to be with you forever!’ he whispered for only me to hear, before making his wish and extinguishing the candles in front of his friends. They applauded warmly, and I smoothed his chest reassuringly with my hand. I had happy tears in my eyes: I thought I knew his wish. |

Hmm, well to be honest my initial reaction was that Hannah is being stupid. If James really loves her, as he says he does, then he would take her word over his brother's word. I feel like she should have just rejected David outright and when the moment was appropriate, talk to James about the situation. It would have been the prudent thing to do. I think it would have been a given that James would be upset with his brother, but ultimately, blackmail sex/ sexual favours is still cheating (in my books anyways) and I don't think he would appreciate that either. However, give the way the story is going, Hannah obviously didn't want to do anything with David and I don't think people should be forced into anything like that. It's also difficult to judge what to do in situations because everything happens so quickly and you only have a few seconds to make a decision. You don't necessarily have time to really consider all your options and make a rational choice, and I can appreciate that. I do hope that David gets what is coming to him. However, that being said, I'm still team Fran!

Interesting! You are very moral! I fully intend James to find out. I haven't really covered this part of Hannah's history, but as a call girl, she would have been in many situations with violent, controlling, and demanding clients, and she knows that in order to get out unharmed you do what you can. She clearly did not want to play by David's rules, but it frightens her to think that a story like that could damage their relationship and take Anthony away from his new father. They will discuss this in the next few chapters, so there's more to come to explain this. As I said yesterday, I had a few different outcomes written for this chapter, and I went with the one that allowed her to go back inside to James and enjoy his birthday with him. In another version, David was a lot more threatening and even rougher with her, but he will learn that he can't get things by intimidation. James has learnt this over the years, but his brother has not. Thanks for your thoughts! There's still another chapter or two to come of their evening.

I've never been called moral in my life, but I'll take it as a compliment! I understand that Hannah was in a difficult position and would agree that she did what she could in that moment. I hope the discussion that ensues between James and Hannah goes okay, though I would think that James is going to blow his top! I just hope he doesn't do anything rash that he may come to regret. We all know that James has a temper I eagerly look forward to the next chapter! It helps to break up the monotony of studying

First comment on this, "new" sequel! I'll try to review everything but keep it short First, I'm really glad it wasn't just a oneshot, but is a new part of the story. Really fun to read, interesting and addictive! It's nice to see Francesca's part of the story and her affair that possibly caused her to have more understanding for James and his "free time". And it's sort of interesting to see how both Hannah and Ray, even though they're happy are sort of sabotaging their life together for James and Fran. I believe that my first opinion on all of these stories was that it didn't really please me that James and Fran didn't end up having a happily-ever-after, but reading this makes me so much more... I can't really find the right word. It's just better this way, looking at both their lives and the kids and James and Hannah and how James takes care of little Anthony and Ray traveling... It's all (or so it seems to me ) coming together little by little. (as it seems I already wrote a whole book about this fic I'll be quick ) I agree with Stephanie and I hope Dave's plan bites him in the ass.

Yes, I meant moral a compliment! I think if anything, Hannah is having a crisis of morality herself. She is trying not to be the person that she was when she was a call girl. She has been a married woman for the past two years dedicated to her husband, and now her new partner, but she's still shaking off the decisions that have created her past.James really does love her, and he will respond appropriately when he finds out! I don't think that this James has too much of an anger problem, he's pretty mellowed now in his old age! But that's not to say that he won't be mad! |

Thank you so much! That was really the reason that I wanted to write this sequel, to explore the alternate universe when James and Fran are not together, and Hannah and James might act out their lives together. And you're quite right, Hannah and Ray are sabotaging their life together for James and Fran. Both are very loyal, and can't keep away I suppose! |
