The Power Of Love Part 17 (everyone) Vincent went over to Catherine and Devin and asked if he could have a word with her. "Catherine may I have a word with you?" "Of course my love." As Vincent lead her slowly away from Devin, Cullen had returned to the hall and saw him staring at Catherine as she gracefully walked away. He got angry and beat Rudolph to the confrontation. As he approached Devin he called his name twice before he got his attention. Yes what it is Cullen, he turned away from Catherine to finally acknowledge his presence. "I saw how you were looking at Catherine." "And, responded Devin." "Do you like her Devin asked Cullen?" "Yes I like her we all do." Not this again Cullen thought. "Do you want her Devin?" "Devin glared at him them." "What kind of question is that Cullen?" "Just answer it Devin." Whether I want her or not makes no difference." "Catherine belongs to Vincent so Cullen whatever you are thinking about stop it right now." "Come on Devin be honest don't you think Catherine deserves better." "Cullen what has gotten into you?" "Nothing has gotten into me Devin." "It's just well Catherine is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." "She's sexy, rich, and she deserves a life of luxury." "She doesn't belong here." " I know I would love to have her in my arms for everyone to see." "Devin why should she have to give all that up for him." "It doesn't seem fair to her." "Some of us men feel the same way. "Man if she was mine ......... "Ok that is enough Cullen." "Yes Catherine is very beautiful." "Any man would be proud to call her his own." "Even I would... "I knew it Cullen interrupted him." "You are just like all the other men." ""You want her for yourself don't you Devin." "It was a statement not a question." "Wait back up a minute Cullen." "Who else have you had this discussion with?" "Well me and Rudolph got into kindva' a disagreement a little bit ago." "I heard you two shouting at each other but I didn't know why." You two were ready to fight over Catherine weren't you?" "Yes we were." "Devin Rudolph said some things about her I didn't like." "What kind of things Cullen?" Well he said if she were his he would give her so much more." "That's not so bad Cullen." "Well no but than he said how much he wanted to make love to her." "He said what asked Devin?" "He dreams of making love to her Devin." "He wants her real bad and I got angry." "Cause you feel the same way right Cullen?" "Well maybe I do but you do as well and don't deny it Devin." "As I said before it makes no difference what any of us want." "She is Vincent's and we have to accept it." "Like hell I do shouted Cullen." "Cullen please lower your voice everyone can hear you." "No I won't Devin." "I don't care who hears me." "Well I do and if you don't lower it, I will lower it for you." "You don't scare me Devin." Hearing Devin and Cullen arguing Vincent excused himself from Catherine and went to see what was wrong. ""Why are you too arguing?" "This is suppose to be a celebration for Catherine reuniting our family." "You are right Vincent said Devin." I won't ruin the celebration especially for Catherine."He looked at Cullen than and said we will finish this later and Devin stormed out of the hall. "Cullen are you going to tell me what has gotten into you, Rudolph and Devin all of a sudden?" "You would never be at each other throats like this before." "You are wrong for her man and than Cullen walked away leaving Vincent staring at his receding back.." Vincent returned to Catherine's side." "Vincent my love what is getting into the men today." "I have never seen them at each other like this?" "Catherine sweetheart I think I know why." "We need to talk." Would you come with me to the falls?" Seeing the serious look on his face, she immediately responded, of course my love." As Vincent escorted Catherine out of hall with his arm possively around her waist, they did not see the jealous glare in the eyes of at least a dozen men in the hall. Part 18 Shirley's Fanfic Index |
