Sorry I abandoned this story so long ago. I sort of lost my drive for SG slash when a certain someone was no longer a part of my life. I lost my best friend and fellow slashaholic because I made some bad decisions, as I am sure she would agree. We have been working to rekindle that friendship, and along with it has come a rekindled fired for my beloved SG slash. This story is by no means over, and I cannot say how long it will be. Ideas constantly roam about in my head in regards to this fic and I believe it could go in many directions. I was looking at the last chapter, and I notice it seems to have been partially cut off. Suffice it to say it was almost over anyway, but the point I am trying to instill is that Darren will not even consider abortion. And they are both terrified of the consequences of their actions, for as much as Hugh would love to see Darren die, he would even more love to see his not so beloved brother live in torture. That in mind, on with the tale!
Darren lay on the hay, basking in the afterglow. He could not believe his luck at getting an entire day alone with Daniel. Hugh wasn’t due to return until morning, and even though there were things that needed to be done to ensure to Hugh he had not been completely useless in his absence, Darren’s pregnancy was beginning to take it’s toll both emotionally and mentally. Daniel looked at him as if reading his thoughts
“The way that bastard treats you we may not need to come up with a solution to this. Your body cannot take any more of his harshness, the baby will surely die. I know my brother, and of his hatred for me. I know that were he to find out about this child and this affair he would do whatever it took to torture me with it. I feel certain he would see to it the child were born , and that while he may never cease to abuse you, he would certainly make keeping you alive a high priority. He is clever enough to know that if I were to take such amazing risk to be with you then you must mean more to me than the very air in which I breathe; and that taking your life would only prompt me to take my own. He wants to see me in pain and he will try any means to achieve that goal. I feel certain the only one who would be severely punished would be me, so telling him is certainly an option I would like you to consider. He may give you a sound lashing, but nothing that could jeopardize the child, as I am sure he would want to see me suffer whilst he raised my child to be as arrogant and cruel and unyielding as himself; a punishment I would be willing to accept if it meant you would be safe….you and the child inside you,” Daniel finished. He had come to the conclusion the previous night in his chamber after Darren had told him the news. He studied Darren, trying to read his thoughts.
“I would rather rot in the depths of hell than to see you in such torture and anguish. You may think you would be the only one punished, but you are wrong. Even if I were to be completely safe from physical danger, I could never watch you in such pain as what you just described to me. Telling him is not an option, I would sooner flee and risk death than to openly confess to that ruthless villain,” Darren said with a ferocity that told Daniel he was more serious than he had been in his life.
“What shall we make of this then? So long as my brother can breath he will do whatever he can to make life difficult for us, more specifically me. This is certainly not something we can hide, love. This is not going to disappear. He will know of your infidelity, and if you do not admit that it is the spawn of my seed, he will surely kill you both. I cannot have that. We must think of a solution,”
“Tis truly a pity the plague did not take him. Then we would not be in this situation,” Darren said softly. Suddenly Daniel got an idea.
“You know my love, there are more ways to die than by plague alone,”
“What are you talking about?? Killing him?? We’ll go to hell for sure!!”
“We commited adultery!! We are having a child out of the holy bonds of wedlock!! And we are actors!! Not killing Hugh isn’t going to keep us from hell!” Daniel was shouting. He looked at Darren, who was shaking with sobs. “I’m sorry love, I didn’t mean to shout at you. I am just as afraid as you are. I am just as angry at these circumstances as you are. And every time I see my brother lay his hands on you it makes me want to rip his flesh from his bones. We haven’t got any choice. After it is finished, and before anyone should catch on, I shall take you as my bride in his stead. Then no one can challenge us. No one can challenge our love…or our baby.
Darren was more afraid than he had ever been in his life. They were plotting murder. Murder! Of course he wanted to see Hugh fall, but he did not even want to think about what would happen to Daniel if he were caught.
“I know that bastard wants you to do some work around here, but you cannot strain yourself too much, and I am aware that if the work is left undone you will be punished in a manner that could be deadly to our child. I want you to go and rest, and I will take care of the work. Tonight after dinner we shall steal a few more moments to ourselves, because he will return by dawn.
