Unknown Passions: Fan Fiction
Tourment Chapter 1
“Theresa you have to stay married to him.” Luis whispered.
It was late, and he didn't want to wake anyone.
“What are you talking about Luis?” Theresa was in complete shock and discust.
“If you stay married to Julian, we can find out what happened to Papa.” Luis said in a stern voice.
“So you are just using me.” Theresa was outraged.
There was no way she could stay married to that bastard Julian.
Even if he was dead.
“Theresa we can take down the Crane's.” Luis tried to explain.
“What about me? You know what Alistar will do to me in that house. And what about Ethan?” Theresa started to cry.
“Theresa it would only be temporary.” Luis said calmly.
“But what about me?” Theresa cointuned to cry.
“Theresa you can get revenge on everyone. Ivy, Rebbecca, Alistar, and show this town the truth. If we can get to the Crane secrets we can stop this. If the next heir is anything like his Alistar they will ruin Harmony's next generation. We can stop this Theresa.” Luis paused for a moment. He was trying to choose his words carefully. “We can find out what happened to Papa. I'll have somebody look after you. Please Theresa.” Luis begged his younger sister.
Theresa thought about his words.
If this wasn't stopped Harmony would be ruined.
Her family was all she had left.
Other than Whitney and Chad.
Then she nodded her head.
Luis hugged his little sister.
“I promise you will be safe. And please don't tell ANYBODY.” He enforced.
Theresa just cried into his arms.
She couldn't believe she was going to stay married to Julian Crane.
But it was for the good of her family.
If she couldn't be happy, they could.
But what about Ethan?
She wanted him so badly.
But she couldn't be with him.
It was impossible.
She lied.
He left.
Ivy smiled.
Rebecca smiled.
Gwen smiled.
She cried.
Into her brothers arms.
Her brother.
Who insisted she stay married to Julian.
Only for the time being.
Just so he could bring down the Crane's.
She wanted that too.
They were all evil.
Just like the Hotchkisses.
Then she thought of Ethan.
Poor.
Innoent.
Honest.
Caring.
Loving.
Forgiving.
Ethan.
She hurt him.
She could only imagine how much.
Accpecting this marriage would hurt him more.
But she had to do this.
Even if Luis was the only one who would accpect it.
She yearned to know about Papa.
Antonio.
Her family.
What happened to them.
Missing.
Dead.
Alive.
She had to know.
But it would problaly cost her everything she held dear.
Whitney.
Chad.
Mama.
Miguel.
Ethan.
But if it meant helping their children, she would.
But until then she would cling to Luis for dear life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Pilar was shocked by her daughters descion.
Why would Theresa want to be Mrs. Julian Crane?
Her daughter had been distucted by the thought of marrying him in the first place.
But to stay there.
She was ruining her life.
What ever happened to her baby girl?
Did Theresa even consider Ethan?
Why was she staying in the first place?
Questions raced through Pilar's head.
They all had no answer.
She knew the way Luis would react.
Angry.
Violent.
Rude.
He wouldn't speak to her.
Did she even consider this?
Did she?
The only reason her daughter had to stay Mrs. Crane was the baby.
And revenge.
On Ivy and Rebecca.
The look on Rebecca's face was priceless when she found out she wasn't Mrs. Crane.
Ivy was outraged that a girl had more power than her.
But Theresa wouldn't stay married to him just because of those two.
She had to have another motive.
A better one.
Pilar couldn't figure it out.
But she would.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She lied.
Again.
It hurt even more this time.
Because she lied.
He told her no more secrets.
She said no more secrets.
There were more secrets.
There were always secrets.
He should have known that by now.
Fool me once shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
He should have read the signals.
Gaining weight.
Clothes getting too big.
Very emotional.
Strange cravings.
How could he have been so stupid.
Dumb.
Clueless.
She must have really gotten a laugh this time.
All of them.
Pilar.
Eve.
Whitney.
And Theresa.
His mom was right.
She was exactly what she said she was.
A deceitful liar.
How did he not see it earlier.
She had lied before.
But that smile, those eyes, blinded him to the truth.
She used him.
How could she?
How could she do this?
How could she break his heart?
At least he still had Gwen.
And his mother.
The two people that loved him most.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Theresa looked up at her new home.
She couldn't believe she went along with this scheme.
So far Mama, Chad, and Whitney deserted her.
Miguel was still MIA.
And Luis was pretending to be mad at her.
But he was always in her corner, no matter what.
He was now the only one.
Other than her.
She hated this feeling.
Like she wasn't accpected.
She had been her whole life.
But now she was no longer.
“Good morning dear.” A slutty red head made her way down the stairs.
“It's the afternoon Rebecca.” Theresa shot back.
That lady was so fickle.
She knew the position she was in.
And now with Julian gone it went deeper.
She could be such a suck-up.
“With dear Julian gone, I no longer know the difference.” Rebecca gave a very gag me speech.
“Save it Rebecca.” Theresa put her guard up.
This woman always had something up her sleeve.
“I'm offended. I loved Julian.” Rebecca raised her voice.
“No, you loved little Julian.” Theresa snapped at the 50 year old hoar standing before her.
Rebecca just turned away, and walked up the steps.
She couldn't believe she would actually allow Rebecca and Ivy to stay in the same house as her.
But Luis knew battles, and she didn't.
Not this severe.
She knew he had a ton of these.
His one piece of advice was keep your friends close, and ememies closer.
They also had a code.
Luis knew the Crane's.
If he called her, and she said she was perfectly fine, she was in danger.
Any other mixture of words didn't matter.
Just those two words.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ivy was astonished that Theresa let her stay.
But if that tramp was going to make nice with her, just to get Ethan she was mistaken.
Ivy knew woman like her.
She was a woman like her.
But if it meant getting money, power, and a place to stay, it didn't matter.
Anyway without the duty of being Mrs. Crane she had time to plan the downfall of her enemies.
First on the list…Theresa.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This place was so lonely.
So boring.
This house was not all the hype it was supposed to be.
At least she got Gwennie's dear friends to do the housework.
That was truly hilarious.
But it offered very little pleasure.
Her work wouldn't begin until notified.
Until then she explored the grounds, and avoided Alistar.
Even if he wasn't home he knew about her.
Watched her.
Overlooked on her.
Spyed on her.
He was famous for that.
He knew all that went on in Harmony.
That scared her more than anyone or anything.
If he found out why she was here in the first place she was doomed.
But it didn't matter.
She had nothing left.
And she had to know about Papa.
Not just for her, but for her family.
Mainly Mama.
They deserved to know the truth.
About what happened.
Anyway there had to be some incrementing things on Ivy and the Hotchkisses in this house.
Until then she would keep a close eye on her enemies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How is it that slut has everything I want.
She has money.
Power.
And still ETHAN.
He won't stop going on about her.
I hope mother is working on her.
I'm no longer allowed to see mother at her home because of that bitch.
I have to go out of my way to see her.
And even then Terrorsita won't let her leave.
How am I expected to go out of my way to see my mother?
I'm a socialite with a reputation to uphold.
I haven't seen Muffy and Buffy in days.
They claim to be busy.
They're problaly trying to make nice with the most powerful woman on Earth.
Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald Crane.
The Crane name should be mine.
Ethan's focus should be on me.
That home should be run by me.
That money should be mine.
That power should be mine.
But NO!
It's Theresa's.
There is no way she's getting away from me this time.
