As I finished up a long shower I went out onto the balcony where Rick was.

"You really went and had a dna test done?" I began as the sliding door closed behind me.

"You knew I did, don't be surprised."

"Are you trying to make my life hell?"

"You do that enough on your own."

"Yeah— and the very place Kamron is laying, it could be you."

Rick grinned turning to face me briefly before returning back to the view of the hills and trees.

"You're violating client attorney trust. Are you saying you intended to do harm?"

"Rick cut the bull shit."

"No madison, you cut the bs... you know Allure is my daughter and let me remind you,  if you ever and I mean ever pull a gun on me again... at any moment that I decide to gain custody I can."

"Don't threaten me, not about my child. You know that's the quickest way to push me."

"Well hell won't be much pushing to do, you're in one heck of a predicament already. How hard do you think it would be for me a stable attorney to gain custody of my daughter."

"Rick you'd be a dead man. Don't ever even try to make me imagine not having my babies. So I'm going to ask you to snap out of this bull shit ass fairy tale and come back to reality. I'm not trying to argue, I just want you to leave this entire situation alone. In fact i was hoping you would sign away all rights."

"Are you insane?"

"No I'm actually pretty damn serious."

"Madison, I'm your key to independence. Don't start this bull."

"Why are you insisting on being apart of my life let alone my child's, is it not enough that I allowed you to stand free after what you have done?"

"What I've done, the whole rape shit again, I'm kind of tired of hearing it Madison."

"You raped me, you're no better than Kamron and if you believe that lie that it was consensual and I am just going threw some fucked up rape victim syndrome, think again! Don't even think that I need you, because I don't, now I'm going to ask you again, to sign away your rights and stay the fuck away from me and my daughter once this all is over."

"You're such a big dreamer, you've always been since the day I took your virginity."

"I wouldn't let you touch me if my life depended on it you filthy bastard. I curse the day I met you."

"All of this big talk from such a little girl, it's all a facade Madison, I see threw you and none of it means a thing. You're just a turtle in a shell. I won't be signing my rights  away, rather you understand it now or later you need to take the adult route and realize Allure needs a father and you can't be both."

"Well I can damn sure try, you could never be a father to a child that you created by rape. I won't allow it!"

"Say what you will madison, you don't have much of a choice at this point."

"I don't want you representing me anymore you bastard, you're probably out to get me! You will no longer be my attorney, I don't trust you, I should've never trusted you!"

"Well let's put that into perspective Madison. If I'm no longer your attorney I have no reason to be here. If I'm not here then this condo is no longer your designated home to remain on house arrest as court ordered, with a nice condo like this in L.a I can imagine my father needing to rent this place out suddenly. When that happens, your parents will....either one, spend money that they don't have on hotels or another place or go back home abandoning you with the promise of taking care of power and Allure. Then they're back in North Carolina and you have no rightful custody, I'm the next best thing for Allure. The truth is out."

"Or... let's say I press charges on you for rape."

"Oh madison, the statue of
Limitation won't stand up, everyone's going to question why you waited so long and allowed me to represent you and resign as your lawyer before you decided to do this out of control Accusation suddenly."

"Do you ever take into account your wife and two kids?"

"Absolutely where the hell is Angela going to go? She's a stay at home mom she's never worked before, she doesn't know how to leave. Anyhow how are you harassing me for wanting to be a father and helping you, are you incompetent of understanding how much I am helping you. Let's again put this into perspective should I resign as your lawyer tonight and just explain to your parents why I can't?"

"You.... you would tell my father you raped and fathered my daughter?" I grinned the most evilest smile, "you wouldn't dare, because he would kill you faster than I could. You just don't know how much I HAVE helped you. Bastard."

"Call me what you want Madison, imagine and make up all the lies you'd like. You'll forever need to understand that I am your life coat and without me you'd sink." He uttered turning his back to me and speaking in a low tone.

"We'll see who has the last laugh, you mark my very words, donot speak or even look at me after this is over."

"Oh who knows Madison you might be sitting on the other side of a glass praying someone writes you. You might want to slow down with the threats."
