Vanilla, Cream and Strawberries (Unedited copy)

Chapter 25 - Unedited

Christian had made it clear, Aston was going to be his priority and that Alexander was to look after Ari. The woods were cold and dark, it reminded Christian of something out of a horror movie.. but that's exactly what it was... a nightmare, his entire life had turned into something of a nightmare recently. He knew it wasn't Ari's fault but he couldn't help but blame her. Ever since she walked back into his life, the press... his sexual life... everything he valued was now on display for the entire fucking world to see. He couldn't hate her. He wouldn't.

"Christian please please don't do this' Aston begging had become something of a tiresome noise. Christian ignored it, just as he had for the previous hour or so. The sound of the ground beneath his feet was all he pretend to hear. The clearing was within eyeshot. And while Christian tried not to think about what he was about to do, Aston screams become louder.

Her broken bruised body was enough to send Alexander into a full blown rage, smashing and screaming as he punched and kicked the items of the room around. Ari hadn't spoken and Alex doubted she would for a while. The thoughts spinning in his mind stopped to a realisation that he had to be the strong one, he had to be here for her, and make her realise that she was safe, that he would do everything in his power to protect her. He would wrap her up in cotton wool if that was what it was goign to take. She was his life and he would be nothing if she didn't recover. He had and he knew he would love her always, since he was a child, she was the thing he wanted most and he was going to make her realise that they had a future. Despite what that cunt had done. Alexander knew Christian would make him pay, he just wasn't to sure how Ari would take it.

"Mmm, you like that don't you baby' "That's it cum for me Princess" "God Ari i've been waiting for this for so long" I felt sick to my stomach their voices it was all i could hear. I had brought it on myself. I had led them on. Oh god. I couldn't stop the sob that broke through my defenses, i didn't want to cry, i knew if i started i'd never stop. I could feel Alex's arms circling around me, but it made me feel sick, the thought of being touched or held. I deserved it, i deserved it all. I tried and i tried to push Alex away but he wouldn't move and in the end I had no choice but to sink into him and cry, just cry. I wasn't crying for myself, or the situation I was crying because i'd ruined everything. The first time it happened everyone said it wasn't my fault. How do you explain it happeneing twice if you don't ask for it? I had to end it. I had to end it all. Everyone would be happier that way.

Blood wasn't as watery as it looked in the films, it was thicked and it smelt awful. But the smell of burning flesh was worse. Christian could smell it on him in the car on the way back to the hotel. His thoughts filmed placed on the accidental death he had arranged. But he highly doubted anyone would find Aston ever. The tent and food and everything had remained in it's place, should anyone ever come across Aston's body, there's no way it would be traced back to any of them. It simply looked as if Aston had gone hunting near the cabin, decided to camp and decided to take a lot of drugs, in his drug infested state, his tent had caught fire while he was sleeping... With that after Aston was well and fully dead, Christian had managed to attract bears to the 'abandoned camp' and his guessed the bears had dragged the body off. The perfect crime and no one would suspect anything other.
