The Power Of Love Part 19 (over 13
)

"Ok Vincent so there are a few men who" think" they love me and can give me more than you can but why has all this come to surface now?" 
"What could have brought this on."  "This should be  a time of happiness not one of arguments especially over me."

"I  know Catherine sweetheart."  "This whole thing has me puzzled." " Something or someone has provoked this but what or who?"

"Vincent nothing has changed since I first came Below."  "We have loved each other since than and everyone seemed very happy for us."
"We were starting to live our dream until Megan and Paracelus took that away from us." "Now here we are living our dream again and it is trying to be taken away from us."  "Life cannot be that cruel Vincent."

The whole time Catherine was talking a part of Vincent's unique instincts were at work. "Catherine it is not life that is being cruel."

"Than what is it my love?"

"Paracelus he stated."

"Oh my goodness Vincent I think you are right."

"Catherine  I think  Paracelus has this diabolical plan to make us go after each other, separate us and you would be the cause of this."  "If it gets out of hand, father could very well lose control over the entire community."  Thus allowing him to take over." "You see Catherine you brought our family together and I think Paracelus is going to try  to  seek his revenge,recclaim the world  Below and using you to tear us apart."

"But Vincent your family is so close."  "This evil plan could never work could it?"

"Judging by Rudolph, Cullen and Devin's actions earlier tonight, it very well could."

"So Paracelus somehow found out a few men may have feelings for me and is using that to make them turn on each other and on you..

"Yes that sounds like him Catherine."  "My love since it is getting late and people are probably leaving the hall, let us go back and say our goodnights."  We can talk to father in the morning as I doubt if anything more will happen tonight." "Come lifting her gently off his lap let us stop by Olivia and Kanin chamber to say goodnight to baby Jacob since Olivia so graciously  offered to keep him for the night so we can have our own private celebration."

"And I am looking forward to that celebration my love flirting with him."

Meanwhile at Kanin and Olivia's  chamber Rudolph had come to confront Kanin.

Not even bothering to announce his arrival Rudolph went straight into their chamber.  "Kanin I need to speak with you right now."

Kanin heard the anger in his voice. "Rudolph you do not come into someone else's chamber without announcing yourself and never with such anger especially at this time of the evening."  "My wife and I were just getting ready for bed, can't this wait until morning?"

"NO IT CANNOT WAIT KANIN."

"Please keep your voice down, the children are sleeping."

"NO I will not keep it down."

"Alright than come into the tunnel." "I will be back shortly my love and Kanin gave his wife a soft kiss on the lips."

"Oh how cute."  "You louse."

Ingoring Rudolph's  remark until they were in the tunnels, Kanin made his comment.  "How dare you come into my chamber, upset my wife and call me a louse."

"What is the matter with  you man?"

"I should be asking you that question Kanin."

"What are you talking about Rudolph?"

"You know damn well what I am talking about?"

"Rudolph I am asking you  again, lower your voice and please watch your language around my wife."

"Aren't you something Kanin, you're asking me to stop swearing around your wife while you are betraying her."

"I have no idea what you are talking about as I said."  "I love my wife she is the mother of my children, I have not betrayed her and I never will."  "I love her too much."

"Come on man whom do you think you are kidding."  "I heard what you said and I don't like it."

"Rudolph what have you heard and from whom?"

"Is does not matter from whom, it is what you said."  "You want Catherine."  "You dream of making love to her when you make love to your wife."
"You even wish you met Catherine before Olivia."

Now Kanin was getting angry."This is utterly  ridicluous."  "I don't know who you have been talking you that would tell you these vicious lies, "I love Catherine like a sister."  "But I love my wife with all my heart and I always will."

Their loud voices had not only woke up baby Jacob but also Kanin's  infant son.  "As Olivia came to the entrance with both babies crying in her arms trying to soothe them, "Would you two stop arguing you have already waken the babies next you will be waking the entire community."

"You are right my love a bunch of lies are not worth arguing over." "Good night Rudolph and Kanin went to enter his chamber."

But Rudolph was not to be put off so quickly and he grabbed Kanin's arm. "We are not done here."  By reflex Kanin went to swing at Rudolph, but it was stopped by a strong arm just before it reached Rudolph's nose.

"Catherine help Olivia with the babies I will take care of this."

"Alright sweetheart and Catherine took Jacob from Olivia and went into their chamber.  "Olivia please have a seat with me so we can tend to the our babies, Vincent  will  handle things from here."
