An Imperfect Life

Chapter 51: Indra and Indrani
(JPOV)
My beautiful Valkirie was all pissed and territorial when that pixie twat tried stakin her claim. I was somewhat worried when the room started shaken’. My Queen is gonna be one major bad ass to contend with. I watched as everyone retreated out of the house, and Bella’s path of destruction. It was perfect timing on their parts. I have a feeling that Simon played his part in it. No sooner had they cleared the porch Alice made mistake number 2. She opened her mouth again.
“Jasper honey, you know I love you. We belong together. She doesn’t know how to please you. Jazzy please come back to me.”
“Don’t you speak to him. You have no Idea what I do with him. I have no problems pleasing the Major.”
My my what a spitfire I have. Hearing her call me the Major made my cock twitch. I can’t wait to get her home.
“Shut up you home wrecker. If it wasn’t for you he never would have left me in the first place. You started this when you kissed my husband.” Alice spat.
Well bend me over and fuck me without the lube. She did not just insult my Mate.
“You listen to me Alice. Don’t you dare and try to blame any of this on Bella. You are the one to shoulder the blame. It was you who was slathered all over someone else before we were even divorced. Ooh big deal, we shared a kiss. Even then it was only to get Edward to back off. I come back and find you all over some blood bag teenager and you have the audacity to blame this on Bella. Hell no!” I growled.
“Fuck you Jasper. That little slut ruined our marriage. Then you go off and fuckin mate with her before the ink is even completely dry on the divorce papers. Your no better then her you lying, cheating, no good man whore.” she screeched at me.
That must have been the last straw for my hell goddess, cause the next thing I know the house is no longer standing around us. Bella is snarling and growling at Alice while still in a crouch. I walk toward her and place my hand on her back gently. Sending her a fuckload of calm. She stands and in the most scary as fuck tone she threatens to rip out Alice’s tongue and burn it in the fireplace. Alice fell to her knees in a crumpled mess on the floor. I wrapped my arms around Bella. She spun around to face me, locking our lips in a searing kiss. When we broke apart I picked her up into my arms and ran for home. Simon can deal with the rest. I ran Bella straight up to our room. Placing myself on the bed with her still in my arms. I continued to send tidal waves of calm at her. She relaxed only slightly more. So I began to whisper to her.
“Bella Darlin’. you need to calm down. I can’t tell ya what I found out at the library if ya don’t.”
I could feel her startin to try and calm herself down.
“That’s it Darlin’…Just like that”
Something I said musta sounded inviting cause her lust started spillin out. I ran my hands through her hair. Then continued down to her shoulders and across her chest. Earnin me a purr like I’ve never heard before. Well now if that don’t make my dick harder.
“Focus Darlin’”
I feel her emotions start to stabilize. I reign in my influence slowly. Letting her own emotions take over.
“Thank you Jazz.”
“Anytime.”
I place her on my lap. She cuddled into me.
“Bella would you like to know what I found out at the library?”
“Yes Jazz I would. Is all of what Simon said true?”
“Absolutely Darlin.”
“So not only are we true soul mates, we’re both vampires and reincarnated gods.”
“In a nutshell yes.”
“There’s more?”
“Sorta.”
“Care to elaborate?”
“Well from what I read gods can only be killed by other gods. We my dear were the rulers of the gods. The king and Queen so to speak. There was a great war between the gods, a battle for power. We knew that they would come for us. So we removed our souls and placed them into human bodies. We did not take over them, only laid in wait until we found our true forms. So traveling from father to son, mother to daughter, we waited. I found my true form much sooner then you my dear. You are very picky.”
“Sorry”
“Don’t apologize. I understand. When my requirements we obtained I was reborn fully into this world. My mother and father we wonderful people. They were strong willed, and good hearted. They raised me well. I still live by their teachings, by choice. When I chose to join the military they were not surprised. They however were not happy that I lied about my age to join. When that bitch Maria found me and I went missing they were heart broken.”
“Oh Jazz”
“Just wait, I used my military training and my gift to do many terrible things. One day I came across Peter. I knew he would be special, so I changed him. Peter became my friend, my brother, my right hand. Together we fought and won many battles together. Several years had passed and I yet again came across someone who seemed important to me. A young woman this time. Charlotte was her name. I chose to turn her also.”
“Jazz you have changed many vampires what makes Peter and Char so special?”
“Ah I hoped you would catch that. Peter and Charlotte were not changed normally. I only brought about the change by marking or biting them once, at the base of the skull.”
“Why?”
“You see my Darlin’ once your change is complete and our true bond is formed, you too will need to mark them. Only when you; my Queen mark them you will drain them both of their human blood which still remains dormant in their bodies.”
(BPOV)
Wow! So much has happened. I feel like I’m two separate people. Well besides Belle. Who by the way has been exceedingly quiet of late. Wonder why?
Well cause that shits confusing and way to fucked up to deal with.
Oh Belle. I’m sorry. What has you confused?
All of it. What are we? Human, vampire, god, vamp god?
Vamp god?
Shut it. It’s the best I can do. I am so on overload. The only good thing that has come out of this whole fuckshit is that we get that yummy hunk of man meat all to ourselves.
Man meat? really?
Would you prefer vamp god?
No I guess not. You do know he can hear this whole conversation right?
Ooops! Leaving now.
Chicken.
I felt Jasper chuckle underneath me.
“What happen to the bold and feisty Belle?” he asked.
“Mental overload.”
“I see, or should I say heard.”
“Yeah. So what happens when I mark Peter and Char?”
“They will ascend to their true places by our sides. Peter with me and Char with you.”
“What of the others?”
“Whatever we decide. They can either become apart of our court or continue to live out the rest of their existence just the same as they did before.”
“Oh I guess that makes sense.”
“Anything else you wish to know?”
“Tons. But I feel drained. I think I will just turn in for the night.”
“As you wish Darlin.”
Jasper slid down the bed so we could lay down.
“You’ll stay all night?”
“All night Darlin.”
“Good. I’m not sure I like the feelings I get off of Alice or Davey for that Matter. Something is not right.”
“I’ll keep you safe. No worries. Now sleep.”
“Love you Jasper.”
“Love you too Bella.”
That was the last thing I remember before sleep took me.
(SPOV)
Peter and Emmett took off to go hunting. I know funny right, a vampire and a human hunting together. Edward and Nikky still aren’t back. But again no surprise there. That leaves me with Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Char, and the twits. Yay me…
“Going Shopping Mom. Takin Char with me.” Rose said to Esme. Then disappeared with Char.
Two down four to go. Davey got up awhile ago and has been holding Alice by the tree line while she cries.
“Simon” Carlisle calls to me.
“What can I do for you Carlisle?”
“Would you mind helping me collect the more important stuff from the rubble. We can store it in the garage until we get the house rebuilt.”
“I would be glad to help. There is a lot of important information in there that if the wrong people were to get it…”
“My thoughts exactly. While we are going about it would you mind telling me more about who Jasper and Bella are?”
“I see no harm in it. The more you know the better equip you will be at handling them.”
“Thank you Simon.”
He turned and headed to what remained of their house. I know with our vampire speed and strength it could be rebuilt in a couple of days. After we got most of the larger items and all the books and files stored, we went and sat on the couch Esme set down near the garage.
“So, who are Indra and Indrani?” Carlisle asked. Esme joined us as well.
“Well In Vedic times, Indra was the supreme ruler of the gods. He was the leader of the Devas, the god of war, the god of thunder and storms, the greatest of all warriors, the strongest of all beings. He was the defender of gods and mankind against the forces of evil. He had early aspects of a sun-god, riding in a golden chariot across the heavens, but he is more often known as the god of thunder, wielding the celestial weapon Vajra, the lightening bolt. He also employs the bow, a net, and a hook in battle. He shows aspects of being a creator god, having set order to the cosmos, and since he was the one who brought water to earth, he was a fertility god as well. He also had the power to revive slain warriors who had fallen in battle.
Indra is described as being very powerful, with a reddish complexion, and with either two or four very long arms. His parents were the sky god Dyaus Pita and the earth goddess Prthivi; he was born fully grown and fully armed from his mother’s side. His wife was Indrani, and his attendants were called the Maruts. His sons are named as Jayanta, Midhusa, Nilambara, Rbhus, Rsabha, Sitragupta, and, most importantly, Arjuna. More hymns in the Rig Veda (about 250) are dedicated to him than any other god by a sizable amount. He was known as a great drinker of Soma; sometimes he did this to draw strength, and when he did he grew to gigantic proportions to battle his enemies, but more often he merely wanted to get drunk. When not in his chariot, Indra rode on the great white elephant Airavata, who was always victorious, and who had four tusks which resembled a sacred mountain. He was given numerous titles including Sakra (“Powerful”), Vajri (“the Thunderer”), Purandara (“Destroyer of Cities”), Meghavahana (“Rider of the Clouds”), and Svargapati (“the Lord of Heaven”).
Indra held court at Svarga, his heaven in the clouds surrounding the highest peak of the sacred mountain Meru. This heaven could move anywhere at its lord’s command. In Svarga, there is an enormous hall when slain warriors went after death. Indra and the beautiful Indrani presided over their paradise. No sorrow, suffering, or fear were allowed in Indra’s home. Apsaras and Gandharvas danced and entertained those who attended court, and gaming and athletic contests were held.
Indra’s most notable exploit was his battle with the asura Vritra. Vritra took the form of a mighty dragon, and had stolen all the water in the world for himself. No one could do anything about this until Indra was born. Upon hearing what had happened, Indra vowed to take back the life-giving liquid. He rode forth to meet him the terrible Vritra. He consumed great amounts of Soma to give him the strength needed to fight such a foe. Indra smashed through Vritra ninety-nine fortresses, and then came upon the dragon. The two clashed, and after a long battle Indra was able to destroy his powerful enemy. Vritra had been keeping the earth in a drought, but when Indra split open the demon, the waters again fell from the skies. So Indra became a hero to all people, and the gods elected him their king for his victory.”
“Wow. And Bella. Or Indrani.” they both asked.
“Indrani was Indra’s wife and consort; in the early Vedic accounts she was merely a female shadow of him. She is sometimes referred to as the goddess of wrath. She was the daughter of the demon Puloman, whom Indra killed. She was always described as beautiful, but was said to have one thousand eyes. In later Hindu times, she came to personify jealousy and was regarded as of evil intent. In southern India, however, she was ranked as one of the nine astral deities who were the highest of the gods. Her symbolic animal was either the lion or the elephant.”
“So Bella could be considered Evil or Good?” Esme asked.
“No our Bella is purely a good soul. She will always be seen as an angel.”
“So what does that mean for us?” Carlisle asked.
“It means once they take power our world will live peacefully among the humans.”
“Is that possible, with all the human drinkers?” Esme asked.
“Oh yes, no one will want to go against the ruling pair. Well at least the smart ones won’t.”
“and the Humans?” Carlisle asked with concern lacing his voice.
“Will be protected. Only the scum and criminal will be fed upon.”
“Will we be more public?”
“No we will still be in the background. We can not interfere with the human ways of life. Otherwise we will starve. If they knew we were here no one would commit crimes.”
“So we still need to keep our existence a secret.”
” to a point I believe so yes.”
“How so?”
“Well the main government leaders of all the countries will know of the king and Queen. If a problem arises they will be the final say.”
” so they are basically immortal peace keepers?” Esme asked.
“yes”
“what do we tell the others when they return?” Carlisle asks.
“Everything I just told you. In less then 2 days time there will be an extremely noticeable power shift. Everyone in our world will feel it. I just hope that the power hungry fool in Italy doesn’t get any ideas.”
“Would Aro try something?”
“He may. Power is a very addicting thing. Once he feels the power shift he will covet it. I just hope his brothers will be able to stop him before he does something stupid.”
“Won’t they stop him just knowing you are here?” Esme asked.
“It helps. But Aro is stubborn. He still does not know who I am exactly. He knows that I’m close if not the same age as himself. If only he knew.”
“What will happen if he tries something?”
“Simple. They will kill him.”
They gasped. Now I’m rolling my eyes. Bella is right. I think that is the only reaction they have.
*chuckling* told you!
Bella?
Of course. Who else would it be? How many other people do you have conversations with in your head? Well besides me and Jasper. Who by the way is listening also.
How did I not know this. I usually feel something.
Power boost Simon.
Aren’t you supposed to be asleep?
I was. It seems I don’t sleep as long as before.
That is because your change is almost complete.
How much longer?
Maybe a little over a day. Your birthday is in 2 days.
Eeerrrr.
Yeah yeah I know don’t mention it.
“Simon” Carlisle called bringing me out of my conversation with Bella.
“HHMMM”
“Where did you go? We were calling you?” Esme asked.
“OH I was speaking with Bella.”
“OH how is she? Are they okay?” Esme started.
I chuckled. ” Yes Esme. They are both okay. Bella is rested and feeling much better.”
*sigh* “Thank goodness.” she replied.
