Dynasty - Youngest Carrington 1

Grace Carrington was the 14 year old daughter of Blake Carrington and the youngest of the Carrington siblings. Being raised the way she had, Grace was a badass like her sister though on occasion she was  little scared of situations , But not much phased her. Not even her father marrying a woman way younger than him, not even her crazy ass mothers return or anything that had happened. Yet that was about to end with the return of her long lost older brother Adam. Yes Grace thought it was a hoax but when it wasn't and Adam moved in that made her uncomfortable. Something about her older brother made her feel unsafe and she had been in a lot of unsafe positions in her young years.

Grace had tried to talk to her father about it, but he brushed her off. This upset Grace because she had been daddy's little girl, the exception to nearly every rule. Things also took a turn for the worst when two bodies were found in her families lake and then her father was arrested leaving her in the care of her almost step mother and her brother who unfortunately for her had been granted temporary custody of his underage sister. She was trapped, he kept his beady creepy eye on her and the sassy, badass armour she had was chipping away. Steven wasn't there and Fallon had her own legal problems.

Grace ran downstairs, she had just overheard the news between the staff that Crystal and her Dad had a undercover wedding in prison. She stopped suddenly looking around for her creepy brother then made her way towards the dining table.

"Is Adam here?" she asked worriedly. Crystal scowled

"No. Are you okay?" Crystal asked and Grace shook her head then gestured for Crystal to follow her and she did outside.

"I hate it here. It's not the home that i grew up in, ever since Adam moved in." Grace rubbed her arms to self sooth her anxiety "I see him when he thinks I'm somewhere else. He goes through my stuff, smells through my perfume. Stuff like that. I tried to warn him off, he just laughs and calls me paranoid. I've tried to talk to Dad but now he just brushes me off. I never though I would say this. But I'm scared of him. Crystal." she stopped and Crystal followed

"Oh Grace." she brought the young girl into a hug "I promise you, i will figure something out." Grace pulled away.

"Actually I already did. I may be scared but i'm a Carrington and resourceful." the two headed into the gazebo and Grace lifted up a loose board pulling out papers and handing them to Crystal.

"They're adoption papers. I already had Mom sign them, she wasn't happy but I made a good case and seen as it was about Adam, she actually did the motherly thing. She's legally given up her parental rights all it needs yours of course."

"Grace." Crystal breathed

"Please, just here me out before you say anything." Cristand nodded and Grace looked around. "If you adopt me, you will assume custody away from Adam. That will give you the chance to officially enrol me at a boarding school in England. Somewhere with round the clock security  and will educate me until I am old enough to liquidate my trust and assets."

"Grace I can't, your father." Grace shook her head

"He's abandoned me in a way that hurt more than Mom did. I have been brought up to be ruthless and self sufficient. Not to take crap from anyone and most of the time I can do that.  But i'M 14 and whether i would like to admit it or not. I need a parent, i thought that Dad would love and protect me but he keeps the the very threat to me sleeping down the hall. You are my last chance Crystal. I've already hired had Anders file a petition against my father but it won't be worth it unless I have you fighting in my corner. Please." Crystal's resolve dropped and she nodded.

"Okay. okay I will help you." Grace breathed a sigh of relief

"Thanks. And I don't mean to rush you but we need to do this quickly and quietly before Adam does everything to block you or Dad encourages him to do so."

-Grace-

Dad and Adam walked downstairs as I was getting ready to leave for school. The next semester was starting in a couple of weeks but I wanted to be far away as possible.

"What is going on here?" Dad asked 

"I'm leaving." I chime with a broad grin as the both hit the last step. Dad was home on bail  after some fixing I'm sure.

"Erm you're not going anywhere. Your 14 and I refuse to let you become another Fallon." Dad denied

"Well you have no say anymore, Blake." I smirk "You see, I'm done feeling unsafe in my own home. Which is why I asked Mom to give up her rights and I had you deemed a unfit parent. To be fair it wasn't that hard given you pending trail."

"Well I know for a fact your two young to be emancipated." he folds his arms "And what could have happened that you don't feel safe. I've gone to..."

"Him." I pointed at Adam "And I swear if you give me the he's your brother crap, I will walk out that door and make it my life mission to bring you down just on principal." Dad looked back at Adam who feigned shocked

"Grace I..."

"Fuck off you perverted creep. i may not be able to prove half the stuff you've done but I will not put up with it. You want the worlds shittiest father your welcome to him." My things were taken towards the awaiting car and I joined them.

"Grace Alexis Carrington!" Dad yelled but I ignored him

-3rd Person-

Blake stood there shocked as Grace was driven away. Crystal looked down for a moment before heading towards the dining room.

"I am calling security, she will be back before she can leave the grounds." Blake grabbed the phone.

"I've instructed security that in all matters concerning Grace, they refer to me." Crystal spoke up.

"What are you talking about?" Blake grumbled

"Grace is scared to live in her own home, Blake. She tried to come to you for help but you turned her away." her husband looked up at her

"You had a part in this?" Adam questioned

"I'm her adoptive mother, as of a week ago and her legal guardian. In all honesty, this was all Grace's plan. All she needed was my signature." Crystal sighed "Where she's going is safe and throughly vetted by three trusted people."

"Crystal she's my daughter."

"Blake I love you, I do. But I'm not going to turn down the youngest when she feels unsafe and asks for my help." Crystal sighed
