The Major And His Demon

Chapter 05:

A night at the bar

This had to be the longest 24 hours of Jasper’s existence. But it was nearly over. Peter was on his way to the ranch in Alice’s Porsche. Jasper, Alice and Charlotte were in Peter’s truck on their way to the Bar. They arrived at 11:30. The music was definitely different from when Jasper had visited two nights ago.

The three walked in and saw a lone empty table in the back. They walked to the table and sat hoping to avoid notice. Jasper looked at the stage. Same band. Same thin, long haired gentleman singing. But tonight was different. The emotional atmosphere of the club was different. And so was the music. He was singing harder rock. His voice sounded different, higher. The band was currently playing Welcome to the Jungle by Guns n Roses. The dance floor was covered in sweating bodies.

Abe saw them the minute they walked in. He figured is too convenient that they left. The other blonde vampire was nowhere to be seen. He could take a wild guess where he was tonight. Abe smiled at the thought. He most likely won’t like what he finds.

Abe knew Jasper Whitlock was an empath. His Master told him. The most powerful empathy in history most likely. Too bad it didn’t mean shit to him. He was annoyed and worried. Lilly was here tonight. After her success in New York and near run in with Carlisle Cullen, she was agitated. She needed lust and she needed violence. They all did. But she really needed to feel it. To feed. He had been about to call her and Cindi to the floor to begin the dance.

Fuck it. The vampires want to play, they could play. Abe wouldn’t hide. They obvious felt very strongly that Bella Swan was here. They should at least have the pleasure of meeting who she has become. With a little luck they will try to take her. Abe looked forward to the fight. Taking on the legendary Jasper Whitlock would be a challenge he relished. But Jasper had to attack first.

The song ended and Abe looked over the assembled crowd. Many of the women were breathing heavy, their bosoms rising and falling rapidly with their breath, in their tight short tops, sweat rolling between their breasts. He reached for the microphone.

“Ladies and Gentleman. We hope you are having a fun time tonight. We are quickly approaching the midnight hour where anything goes. I want to dedicate this next song to a very special lady. Our bartender Lilly. Come dance for us Lilly! Give her a hand everybody!”

The crowd began to cheer. Jasper was too focused on the singer to look towards the bar. He figured it would be another blonde like the one who served him the other night. The singer suddenly looked across the room and winked at him. Fuck! Bastard knew he was here. He turned to the crowd who had parted to allow whoever Lilly was to walk out onto the floor.

Abe smiled and started the song. Jasper and Charlotte immediately recognized the AC/DC tune. The sounds of bells were ringing off the walls. The singer began playing Hell’s Bells at a slow pace to start with. Jasper admitted the man was talented. He continued to ponder this until Alice gasped.

“Is that…” he heard Charlotte ask.

“Bella.” Alice responded breathlessly.

Jasper’s head immediately turned and there she was. His Mate. In the tightest pair of spandex shorts wrapped around her pale, smooth legs and tight ass. She had a black string bikini top. He instantly became jealous. He could feel the spike in the lust around the room. These damn men were staring at his Mate.

He watched as Bella slowly drew her arms over her head and began swaying to the music. As the tempo picked up so did her movements. She was running her hands over her abdomen. She was on her knees swaying her head back and forth to the sound of the music. A girl with dark hair walked out on the floor and began dancing with her. Bella turned her back and began rubbing her ass against the dark haired tattooed female.

Lilly was in a daze. She needed this so badly. And the feel of Cindi at her back, her hot sweaty skin rubbing against hers was driving her wild.

Cindi looked at Abe who nodded. Cindi reached around Lilly’s back and placed her hands under her bikini top. The crowd was memorized. Jasper and Alice were as well. Soon Lilly turned and drove her tongue into Cindi’s mouth. Two other females walked out onto the floor also in shorts and bikini tops. They began kissing on the dance floor slowly letting their hands run over their glistening bodies. The lights went down.

Jasper heard moaning from the corner. A girl was bent over a table and her boyfriend had pulled up her skirt and was fucking her from behind. Nobody seemed to notice. He looked around the bar and saw that others were conducting themselves in the same manner.

Abe nodded at Lilly. She walked off the dance floor and headed toward Jasper. He was so close he could nearly touch her. He was not leaving here tonight without her.

“You people don’t seem to be enjoying the fun. One guy and two hot ladies. Surely you can join the party?” She asked raising an eyebrow. The lust in the room was making it hard for Jasper to concentrate.

“Bella? We have been looking everywhere for you.” Jasper said staring into her beautiful eyes.

“Who is Bella? My name is Lilly. You must have me confused with someone else. Do we know each other? Because I don’t know you.”

“Your name is Bella Swan. What the hell happened?” Jasper asked her, getting very worried.

“What happened? I don’t know what you are talking about. I can help you though. I am not Bella Swan. But I do know her. At least I knew her. The poor little thing.”

Alice and Jasper looked concerned. Char was getting distracted by the obscene sex the bar patrons were having with no regard to who was present. She turned her attention back to the small brunette who at this moment was the sexiest woman Char had seen in her existence. She noticed Alice’s hand had slipped between her legs and under her tights even as she stared at Bella. It was like she couldn’t help herself. She was in a daze.

Alice had never been so turned on, excited and scared in her life. Jasper was trying to keep his head clear by blocking the lust in the room.

“Bella, what is going on?” Jasper whispered.

“I told you my name isn’t Bella. Bella Swan was a beautiful, sweet girl. She loved her parents. She cared deeply for her best friend who abandoned her. She cared deeply for the family she relied on for protection from the world she was dragged into. But sadly Bella Swan died. Victoria killed her. Fucked her up good. She died right there.”

Bella pointed to a spot in the middle of the dance floor.

“My name is Lillith. Lilly for short. Alice, it appears you are having fun.” Bella said winking at her former best friend.

She leaned over and whispered in her ear.

“You know how many times I stared at your ass in tights just like the ones you have on now. How many times I wanted to feel your nipples in my mouth? Feel your cool lips on mine?”

Alice couldn’t speak. She had no breath. She wanted someone to take her now. She vaguely noted Char hand was mimicking hers. She was as lost as Alice was.

“What’s wrong Jasper? Lust not doing it for you? I think it feels refreshing.” Lilly touched his chest and Jasper body felt like an open electrical wire.

Jasper looked at Bella and saw a quick flash of black roll past her eyes.

“What did they do to you Bella?” He reached for her hand but jumped back when he felt the scalding heat of her skin.

“Ah ah ah, Jasper. Don’t touch until I tell you that you can. If lust isn’t your thing, how about a little hate? Violence?”

Jasper sat still watching Bella walk across the dance floor. She grabbed a man who was currently getting a blow job on the dance floor and struck him in the face. He dropped to his knees. She then turned around and kicked another man in his nuts. The two men she assaulted immediately retaliated. Against each other. Soon others had joined the fight. Whoever wasn’t fucking was fighting. Men and women both. Jasper looked at the Singer on the stage. He had a huge grin. A guitar solo was going on so he wasn’t currently singing anything. His eyes were black. Jasper looked around and the entire band’s eyes were black. The waitress’s eyes were black. And Bella Swan’s eyes were solid black. She turned to Jasper and beckoned him over with a finger. Jasper rose, barely noticing that Alice had gone under the table and currently had her face in between Charlotte’s legs.

He reached Bella and stared into her eyes. The black soulless eyes he knew didn’t belong to her.

“Why have you come looking for me Jasper?”

“You are mine Bella. You know you are mine. You have known it since the first time you saw me.”

“You are a married man. What would your wife say?” She smirked.

“She knows you are mine.”

“Will you share her with me?”

“Yes, if that is what you want.”

“What is in it for me? What can you give me that I don’t already have? I have lovers. I have a family. I have everything I could possibly need.”

“Bella I will turn you.”

“Just one problem Jazzy.”

“And what is that?”

“You can’t turn me. Something already has a claim to my soul. You are too late Jasper. You should have taken me long before this. But why didn’t you? Oh yes. Your pussy brother. You let him stand in the way didn’t you? Didn’t want to upset Daddy Carlisle. And then you left so you wouldn’t have to kill him over me. And now you and your sidekick want me. But it’s too late. Like I told you. Bella Swan is dead. She died of internal injuries. Her chest was crushed. She had a head wound. Her leg was broken. Again. And her ribs were crushed on both sides. She walked four hundred yards on that broken leg, internally bleeding until she came to this bar and died right there in the sawdust, her blood chocking her as it went up her esophagus and poured out of her mouth onto the floor.”

Jasper looked around and saw the fighting had gotten worse. Only a guitar was slowly playing in the background. He heard the sounds of orgasms all around.

“What is this Bella?”

“You are the empath. You should know. Have a seat. We will talk more when feeding time is over.”

Jasper watched Bella walk behind the bar and laugh with the dark haired girl she had been dancing with earlier. He watched Bella kiss her while untying her top. He wanted to stop her. But he couldn’t make himself. He couldn’t move towards her. His soul was pulling but his body refused to cooperate. He turned and walked back to the table. He noticed that Char and Alice had changed places. He admitted to himself that the lust was getting to him. But he would not take another woman before he had his Mate.

And then it was over.

Everyone stood up as if in a daze. Women put their clothes back on. Men stopped fighting. The music had stopped.

“Thank you all for a lovely night. Ya’ll come again soon.” The singer said from up on the stage.

As Abe watched the crowd file out as if they were sleep walking, he knew the vampires wouldn’t be going anywhere. And it was time to lay all their cards on the table anyway.

Ten miles away Peter was laying on the ground scoping out the ranch house. He wasn’t sure why but he wanted to be very careful in approaching this place. Quite honestly it freaked him out. The house was dark. It was a normal brick house. Looked like it had a fireplace. Windows. Sandy brick. Nice. Nothing special. There was a pool in the backyard. Decent sized. Nothing about this place seemed out of the ordinary. So why did it freak him out?

Deciding he wasn’t going to go back to the Major and tell him he failed to break into a simple empty house, Peter decided to stop wasting time and go in. He walked up to the door hoping to figure out a way to open it without being obvious. If possible he didn’t want anyone to know the house had been entered by an unwelcome and uninvited guest. As he approached the front door he could have sworn he heard a door knob turn and jumped to the side of the house. Hearing nothing else, no heartbeats, nothing, he decided it must have been his mind playing a trick on him. Out of sheer curiosity he turned the door knob and was surprised to see it opened. They didn’t lock their house. He looked around, feeling this was too easy.

He walked into a large kitchen. Nothing out of the ordinary. He walked through the kitchen into a living room area. Nice size Flat Screen on the wall. Some southwest style décor. A couple couches, a couple recliners and some bean bag chairs on the floor. He continued down the hall. The feeling he had of unease was not getting any better. He checked the first room and saw a large bathroom. A large shower was at the end with multiple shower heads.

The next room was also a bathroom. And the next. The room directly across from it was what looked to be a bedroom. At least that’s what it seemed. But there were no beds. Only 6 or 7 mattresses covered in sheets laying on the floor. Did they all sleep in here? What the hell kind of people were they?

The next room down the hall was what looked to be an empty bedroom converted to a wardrobe room. Clothes were on rolling racks lined in rows. On the walls he saw Chester drawers. He opened the drawers to see panties in some and men’s underwear in the others. Strange. They must keep their clothes in here, Peter thought. The final room at the end of the hall was what surprised him the most. It looked like a BDSM dungeon. Whips and shackles were on the wall. An Altar of some sort with straps attached to both ends stood against the far wall. A Pentagram was drawn on the wall over it, the goats head freaking him out even more. He saw a bracket with ropes attached to the top as if to tie down someone’s arms above their head. This was a dungeon. So what was with the altar? Was that a torture rack in the corner?

Peter saw may things out of the ordinary inside of the house. But nothing that would shed any light on what was going on. He walked through the living room, deciding to leave quickly. He quietly headed toward the kitchen when he felt it. A cold draft. He turned and saw a door. A black door in one corner of the living room. Peter had assumed it was a closet when he walked through but on closer inspection something was definitely off. Why would a closet door would be painted black when no other door in the house was?

He slowly walked forward and touched the door handle. It was cold. Ice cold. Even to his touch. Despite his better judgment he turned the handle and the door opened up. He looked at the floor first. A simple red pillow was on the ground. He couldn’t see any deeper into the room because of the blackness. It was all encompassing. Like a black hole. He was about to close the door, when he heard his name whispered in the dark.

He stopped cold, thinking he must be hearing things again. Then he heard it again. A whisper. Peter was afraid. He peered in the darkness but saw nothing still. He heard no heartbeat. No sound of breathing. Was it a recording of some type?

“Peter, come in and speak to me.” The voice whispered out of the darkness.

That was definitely not a recording.

“Who are you?” He whispered.

“I am a friend. I want to thank you for the work you have done. You have brought me many souls.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Charlotte tastes like honey doesn’t she? Sweetest pussy you have ever tasted. Isn’t that right there cowboy?”

Peter froze. He had said that exact thing to Charlotte this afternoon while the two of them and Alice had been blowing off steam. Alice had concurred.

“You’re an evil fucking prick Peter Whitlock.” The voice whispered. “You act like a soldier but you stay with Jasper because he gave you what you craved. War. Death. Torture. You enjoyed it.” The voice hissed.

“No. I escaped that life. I left it.”

“Yes, because your brother was going to kill your Mate. If she had not been your Mate you would still be there killing for Maria. A man like you Peter, only sex could distract you from violence. And that is what I love about you so.”

The voice began to laugh. A high pitched laugh that stabbed into his soul.

“Do you know that your sire wants my Lilith? Of course you do. But what you don’t understand is you all serve the same Master. Whether you think you do or not.”

“I serve no one.” Peter responded. He was scared. But he had his pride.

“Step into this room, Peter. Look upon me. Tell me I lie. It is possible. I am the prince of lies.”

Peter knew a couple things in life. He loved Charlotte. He liked to fight. And he did not under any circumstances want to step into this room. Despite this certainty he found himself stepping into the cold darkness. And what he saw made his blood run cold.

“Oh God.” Peter whispered.

“No. He has nothing to do with this.”

Peter closed his eyes, waiting for the end.

And when he opened his eyes he was outside the house. He had to get to Jasper. Jasper had no idea what they were dealing with. He had to get to Charlotte and get her the fuck out of this town. And she was with Jasper. With them.

“I see you have decided to stay for the afterhours party Mr. Cullen. Or is it Hale? Or are we going by Whitlock today? Many different names, same fucking bastard.” Abe said smiling at him.

The singer and his five cronies were seated against the wall. The girls were sitting on a table top. His Mate was seated on the singer’s lap, playing with the asshole’s hair and smiling at Jasper. Jasper did not like this.

“Apparently Bella told you who I was. Why don’t you tell me what I can call you?”

“You may call me Legion, for we are many.” Abe responded.

“Okay Legion. What do you say you get your hands off my Mate before somebody gets hurt?” Jasper tried to force fear onto the assemblage in front of him. It wasn’t working.

“Lilly? Is this man your Mate?” Abe asked looking down at Bella who was curled into his lap and was now currently licking his neck.

“He could have been. But he is too late.”

“See Mr. Whitlock? She says she isn’t your Mate. Time to go.”

Jasper felt it was time for a bold move. He swept a feeling of confidence to Alice and Char behind him. He needed them to back his play.

Moving quicker than a human eye could track, Jasper grabbed Bella from the man’s lap. He pulled her up to his chest and bit her neck. Deeply. He heard Bella moan. He knew this would hurt her but he had no choice. He had to turn her. She would understand then.

Bella began shaking in his arms. She was starting to convulse. The humans came to their feet stepping toward Jasper. He backed up, protecting his Mate. Alice and Char stepped in front of him. Bella began screaming in his arms. She was screaming loudly. The venom was working. She wouldn’t stop screaming, and then, he heard… laughter?

Jasper pulled Bella back from his arms and saw her face. Only it wasn’t her face. He was looking at a black skull like face with pitch black eyes staring back at him.

“I think you may have fucked up there cowboy. Lilly doesn’t like being bit without permission.” Abe casually commented. The others with him were laughing as well. Her laughter continued, growing louder. Alice and Char stepped back. Bella backed away from Jasper stepping back to her friends. Jasper, Alice and Charlotte looked at the thirteen faces staring back at them.

“You wanted to know my name? I am Abaddon. And these are my children. My brothers and sisters. Show yourself brothers and sisters. Show yourselves as Lilith has done.”

The faces changed. Some were fiery skulls with flaming hair. Others were ebony faces of what Jasper imagined the devil himself looked like. Misshapen, horned figures. The bodies didn’t change except for the skin color. They were all red or black. Jasper noticed most of the men were red while the women were solid black.

“What is this?” Jasper whispered.

“You attacked one of my children Jasper Cullen. My youngest. My baby girl. And that means you are fair game.” Abaddon responded rising. He rushed Jasper and grabbed his neck. Jasper swung and hit him in his Solid red face. Were those fangs? This made him snarl but didn’t move him. Lilly stepped forward and placed her hand on Abe’s shoulder.

“Leave him Abe.” Her face was returning somewhat normal. She was controlling the beast.

“Why should I Lilly? He attacked you.”

“But not to kill me. He saved my life once. He destroyed a vampire that attacked me. That tortured me. He and Alice hid me. And he gave me something no one else had at that time of my life. He told me I was worth something. I loved him. Let him go. For me.”

Abe knew the truth in her words. His pride wanted Whitlock dead. His jealousy. But he would not let his pride rule him. He preached to his brothers and sister that control was everything. To show the demon was fine. To use the demon was what was required for the job. But when the spirit showed itself whenever it wanted, things could go from bad to real ugly very quickly. He took his hand off of Jasper’s neck. His brothers and sisters regained their forms.

“Whitlock you are to leave in the morning. Never return here. If you do we will kill you. And your family and friends.”

Jasper was undeterred, despite knowing his blow had no effect on whatever the hell this was in front of him.

“I won’t leave without Bella.”

“That is her choice. And I think she has made her choice clear.”

“Bella, come see me at the Motel. Let me talk to you. If you don’t want to leave with me I will go away in and never bother you again.” Jasper knew this wasn’t the truth but he to separate her from this group somehow.

Before Bella could reply Peter Whitlock came in through the door, looking as if the devil himself was chasing him. Perhaps he was.

“Major, we need to go.”

“I’m not finished here.”

“We need to go. Now! We cannot fight this sir.” He whispered in Jasper’s ear. “We need to fall back and regroup. She isn’t going anywhere. You need to hear what I have to say. What I found.”

Jasper looked at Abaddon who was smiling at him. All of their faces were back to normal. As if it never happened. Bella simply sat on this Abaddon’s lap and continued playing with his hair as if her Mate wasn’t here. Jasper saw the wisdom in Peter’s words. As much as he hated this until he knew how to fight whatever the hell these things were he had to leave. The four turned without a word and walked out. Jasper was seething. He took off at a run leaving the others to the cars. He reached the motel long before the others. He stayed in his room and locked the door. He did not want to be disturbed. He saw his Mate turn into some type of beast tonight. He bit her and it had no effect except to make her laugh. He had to think this through. And he needed help. He needed knowledge. He needed to call the one man who he did not want to involve. Carlisle Cullen.

At the ranch the children were solemn. No one knew exactly what to make of the nights events. They were all agitated and soon they were all in the bedroom. Bella found herself pierced three ways by Bo, Michael and Devin and still couldn’t be satisfied. The proximity to the man she dreamed of so many nights in her cozy bedroom in Forks had laid his teeth on her. He was ready to claim her. For the first time since she accepted the demon in her soul she felt a tinge of regret about her decision. But had she not, she would be dead anyway. After all three of her partners had came in her, Sarah crawled over her and began cleaning her in the special way Sarah does. Abe came out of the room. That room. He looked at his Lilly and smiled.

“We need to talk.”

Abe explained to the group what was going to happen. What needed to happen. What his Master told him would happen. Lilly was both excited, and scared. Abe did not know the whys. It wasn’t important. It was necessary to do the Master’s work.

As the sun rose Jasper was finally ready to break down and call Carlisle. Alice, Char and Peter had come into his room a couple hours ago and Peter had explained to Jasper what he had saw. What he had experienced. Jasper was disturbed. Very disturbed. He began to dial the number when they all heard a knock at the door. Jasper could hear a heartbeat outside and assumed it to be cleaning.

Alice opened the door to tell the cleaning lady to go away. And there stood Bella. Blue jeans, T shirt and sneakers. Looking every bit of the girl they knew and loved in Forks.

Bella smiled. The same shy smile she had always had.

“Hi guys. Uh, how’s it going? Things kinda got crazy last night huh?” She asked looking at the ground.

“Uh…” Alice was speechless. Jasper was stunned. Could it be this easy? He had already come to the conclusion that he was going to have to kidnap her. And here she was.

Bella looked up at the four vampires.

“So can we talk?”
