Chapter 30:

JPOV

I swear we hadn’t been home for an hour before real life had to intrude. We were unpacking when we heard a knock on the door. I knew it wasn’t Pete and Char cause it wasn’t night time. I looked at the front door cam and saw two individuals with long shaggy hair and beards. Both were skinny. If I didn’t know better I would think they were mistaking this for a crack house looking to score.

My Spidey senses were screaming at me that they were dangerous. I looked at Bell and could tell she was thinking the same thing.

“Got my back?” I asked her.

“Always”.

I went downstairs with my Smith and Wesson .357 from the bedroom underwear drawer. I keep it in Bella’s panty drawer. It likes to be near her special things.

I opened the door and before I could say hello the one on the front steps pushed me in the chest and sent me flying. I landed on my back and rolled backwards into a firing position. I shot the one who had pushed me 4 times in the chest and once in the head and he dropped. The second one jumped over him so damn fast I didn’t have time to react. He kicked the gun out of my hand and had me up against the wall pinned before I could react. I need him in the groin and with a simple twist of the wrist I switched spots with him and had him face first in the wall.

I was about to ask him what the hell was going on when I felt a blow to the back of my head. I nearly blacked out but stayed awake. The blow made me lose my grip on asshole number two and he elbowed me in the face. Owwwww. I staggered back to be kicked by what looked like a bloody asshole number 1 back from the dead.

I was on the ground on my back looking at two pissed off meth heads. “We have a message for you. Don’t mess with what doesn’t belong to you.”

Asshole number one pulled a big fucking knife out of his pants band. I heard a yell as I was about to go into defensive stance. More like a war scream really. The two assholes turned around in time to see a flash of a blade go through asshole number one and then asshole number two’s neck. That was a hell of a stroke. Taking two heads with one swing of a sword is not easy.

“Nice stroke darlin.” The look of surprises on the assholes faces stayed on their faces as their heads lay a feet from their bodies.

“No problem sweety. Sorry it took me so long. I saw the first guy’s bullets pop up and out of his head and chest and he hit you over the head so I had to run back upstairs and grab my sword.”

“You know I’m thinking we should get some sort of pad that can shock people before we open the door.”

“You would have too much fun with the mail man.” She pointed out. True.

“So baby what do you think they are first of all?”

“Havent a clue but they are not vamps and shapeshifters don’t heal that fast. A bullet to the brain would killed them. Maybe these are those children of the moon type wolves from overseas.”

“What are they doing here? What did they mean don’t mess with what doesn’t belong to you?” Bella asked

“I don’t know but I’m beginning to wonder if Edwin didn’t somehow send him.”

“There was a time I would have called you crazy for suggesting that but I can’t anymore. It is possible but we need to know more before we go accusing him.”

“I don’t want to accuse him darlin. He will give himself away eventually if it is him. We just know now to be more careful. I’m gonna call this in so the bodies can be picked up and studied. It will give us a better idea of what we are up against. I would consider it a favor if you could call Petey and ask him if he has heard anything about new supernaturals in the area. “

“On it baby.”

BPOV

” Petey baby, this is Hells Bells.”

“Darlin its good to hear from you! How was the honeymoon? Did you get laid a lot?”

“Yes Pete I got laid a lot in many differnet positions. I need to talk to you about business.”

“What kind of business?”

“The kind that attacked my husband an hour after we arrived home. You heard of anything new in Texas? Like long haired skinny dudes that can take 5 bullets to the chest and head and heal in seconds?”

“Bells you talkin about children of the moon. They only shift on full moons but have the strength and healing powers and other attributes pretty much all the time. I heard the Romanians use them for guard dogs and assassins.”

“That’s what we thought. Jason is calling a clean up crew now to examine the bodies but we figured this tied in with the Romanians somehow and it was personal. They were delivering a message to Jason. Told him not to mess with what wasn’t his.”

“Sounds like Assward. I wonder if he isn’t setting up something with the Romanians to get Jason out of the way and get you turned?”

“That’s what we were thinking too but we are going to hang back and watch for now.”

“Darlin how did Jason kill them if his gun didn’t work?”

I laughed. Chauvinistic pig. “He didn’t kill them Peter. I chopped off their fucking heads with my sword. Tell Char to call me soon. I need to go lingerie shopping and want company.”

I ended the call and walked in as Jason was finishing talking to his boss. I tended to his wounds. Mostly putting ice on his head and stroking his ego to make his wounded pride feel better.

“Baby thank you so much for distracting those monsters while I got my sword. I know you could have taken them anytime but it meant a lot to me that you let them kick the shit out of you until I came back.”

“Bella?”

“Yes dear?”

“Fuck you.”

Okay I admit it my wife saved my ass by making an amazing swing of her sword. I could have done the same if she was getting beat up and I snuck up behind them with a sword. At least I could have got one of them. I find it strange that she didn’t interfere until the asshole number one pulled the knife. Makes me wonder if it was great timing or she was enjoying watching me get my ass kicked. She wouldn’t do that would she? Besides I had the situation under control. I was about to….I don’t know but it would have been cool. She is still smiling. Guess who has two thumbs and is getting tied up in bed tonight? This guy, that’s who.

The cleanup crew made quick work of getting the bodies picked up and transported to the Center for autopsy and most importantly to tell me a better way to kill these things besides swords. I don’t mind swords but if I can kill from a distance it will be much better. The team arrived and we reviewed our video footage from the camera in the living room. They all thanked Bella for saving my ass. The little lady jumped over the banister halfway down the stairs and had both heads hit the ground about a second after her foot landed. Serenity hugged her and told her how proud she was. Joker gave a play by play of me getting my ass kicked. In my defense I was getting beat up by two supernatural creatures but no one seemed to care about that.

Bella handed me a mop and told me to start getting the blood off of the hardwood. I asked her why we weren’t doing this together.

“I kill em, you clean em. Isn’t that how it works in hunting and fishing?”

Bella called Charlie and wanted him to be on the lookout for anything suspicious as she told him what happened. He wanted to fly down and I got on the phone to talk him out of it.

He finally relented saying he just didn’t want me hurt but felt that Bella could protect me on her own.

Asshole.
