One month on from the revelation that Jaxon and Payton are not biologically related to the Frasers. Charisma can't bring herself to tell Jaxon but she knows she will have to at some point.
Payton is spending time in the hold, she has been left in li...
Lena sat in the coffee shop alone, she had text Charisma and asked her to meet her. She stared out of the window, Jensen sometimes hurt her with his callous tongue. She knew deep down he always believed that she wasn't good enough to be a mother yet, he still continued to put babies in her. Charisma walked in, she smiled. "Today has been crazy, I have not even been home yet and I need to speak to Leyton....
"Jensen said it again..." she said and Charisma could see she was upset. Charisma looked at her. "He told me that I'm not a good mother and it shows because his other kids by other women, have got what it takes to be a Taylor... he's embarrassed of me... so it's my fault... it's my fault that Storm is soft and Charm has no idea how to look after herself... It's my fault that Skye is the way that she is... It's my fault, Lily's dead and Dream is dead and Enzo is dead...
"Hey... stop!." Charisma said sitting next to her and holding her hand. " You are not responsible for everything, he was never around, and he left you to raise those kids, knowing you weren't capable at that time.. he needs to take some responsibility too, I hate that he can do this to you.." she sighed. "this is where him and Keegan are just the same. They say hurtful things and they don't even care how it makes anyone else feel... it's like it's their right to be spiteful, horrible people... and mostly to me and you...

" is he right though... I mean, I had no idea what I was doing when I had those kids young, by the age of 12 they were fucking telling me what to do. They were sending me to bed so they could have their friends over I mean, would you entertain that shit as a mother yourself?"
"Our situations were completely different... you were young.. way younger than me, having kids... And you had not had a great upbringing yourself. You didn't have people around you that loved you and nurtured you... And when you met Jensen, you met a high profile man, and you were thrown in the deep end... That wasn't how my life went.." Charisma told her. "Please don't let him do this to you, you have no reason to be insecure..
"he umm. he basically told me that he wished I was more like you. Do you know how much that fucking hurt me.." she said and blinked back her tears. " sometimes I really wonder what I mean to him when I'm only ever there to please him that's how it feels... trust me, I know I've stood up for him sometimes, and I've said things to you that I don't really mean... but he is just the same as Keegan, he has cheated but he's covered it well positioning it as business must do's... he did the same with Enzo's wife, Larissa...
Charisma listened to her sister, she contemplated whether she should tell her about the conversations that she had been in with Nash and Marlon in previous years. Charisma wasn't even sure herself if she was going to turn her back on her husband and his father. She just knew the plans that were coming, the war that was brewing, the war that would see the Taylor mafia family completely divided and completely devastated. She consoled Lena, but she had a lot on her plate right now, and as much as she wanted to be there for her. Lena was right, Jensen was no different to Keegan, and she needed to come to her own conclusions about her future with her husband.

Leyton waited for the phantom to pull up. As it slowed next to him, he got in. He sat there staring out of the front window, his face straight. "What did you do with the weapon?.." He reached into his pocket, and he pulled out the knife, which still had the blood crisped to it. "Give me that you fucking idiot what the hell are you thinking holding onto the weapon?" Marlon took it off of him.
"I didn't feel a thing... I took his eye out like I was peeling an orange...
"I know I was there.." he replied.
He was quiet for a second. "Have you seen my mom?."
"Why?."
"Cos I wanna see her... she's got things she needs to tell me.. doesn't she?.." he said and looked at Marlon.
"I don't know what you're talking about...
"I heard you, and you know I heard you...
"you were fucking delusional last night, you had completely lost the plot, and you had been beaten to fuck... I don't think you were taking anything in right... We tried to stop you... I was happy to just go back and scare the lil motherfuckers, but you, you decided to take a knife and rip out his eye.." Marlon said raising his voice. He calmed slightly. "There is a darkness inside of you Leyton, that I need to help you curb..."
"Tell me why you have to help me... Why can't my dad help me?" he said, staring at Marlon. "If he is even my dad!.."
"Boy, you need to stop with all the cryptic shit okay... Whatever is in yo head is exactly there, in yo head... bad things happened to you just like they did to me... I'm the only person that can help you because I'm seeing the behaviours in you that I used to show... I don't want you to become a danger..."
"WHY DO I MATTER TO YOU SO MUCH!.." Leyton yelled at him. "Cmon.. tell me!.."
"Go home... I'll be in touch... I told you I'm gonna help you.."
Leyton shook his head at him, he looked him in the eye before getting out of the car, slamming the door shut and walking away from him. Marlon watched him go and sighed heavily.

".... Where the fuck have you been all day!.." Keegan said as Charisma walked into the house. "I've been worried.."
" I had brunch with Charlotte, and then I found out about what happened to Leyton...
"I was gonna talk to you about it... he's not as tough as the others..
"Why didn't you call me and tell me." She said cutting him off. " I could've come home and spoken to him..."
"He needs to toughen up...

"What our son needs is help... do you even know what happened?.." she asked him.
"KJ set on him... everyone sees him as an easy target... we can't have that, we can't be here, waiting for things to go wrong with him...
"You shallow mother fucker...
"Excuse me!..."
"you know absolutely nothing about him...I have been trying to speak to you for years about the underlying dangerous man that he's becoming... you never let him fight Keegan. In the end, you never let him get it out of his system. Instead, you forced him to follow his twin brother around who happens to work with Keegan which means that they are in each other's faces constantly do you not see what you're doing here?...
"I didn't force him to do anything I just thought it would be good for him to be around Keane as Keane is more like me!." He said shrugging his shoulders. " I don't have the time to carry him...
" Exactly, you are all talk... You never have time for the ones that aren't as tough as you because they make you seem weak.. or is it that he was raped... is that what you can't deal with!..." she glared at him and stormed upstairs.....
