The Major And His Demon

Chapter 13:

Bella Takes A Trip

Jasper and Bella returned to Sonora in the morning, both sad that the date was over and not knowing when the next one will be. They were quiet on the way home. Bella sat next to Jasper with his arm around her while he drove. She rubbed his leg lightly. They just relaxed, enjoying the time with each other.

Except Jasper couldn’t completely relax. The next couple weeks were on his mind. How long would he be without Bella? What would she have to go through? Why couldn’t they just go into and wipe them all out. What was Jasper supposed to do? Why did his Bella have to hurt? Why did she have to walk into a castle full of evil vampires alone?

They entered the house unsurprised to find the bodies of the family and Alice lying in a naked pile in the bedroom on the collection of mattresses.

Bella cleared her throat. Abe woke up first and smiled. Jasper frowned. He wasn’t wearing clothes. Not that is mattered he supposed. There was nothing Bella hadn’t seen. He held back a growl at that thought.

“Have a nice date, you two?” Abe asked grinning.

Jasper was about to respond when Bella spoke up.

‘Yes. He loves me.”

Abe and the others who had now woken up smiled at her.

“Of course he does. How could anyone not?”

Bella turned to Jasper. “I have to take a shower.” She kissed him on the cheek and walked out of the room. Jasper was about to suggest he join her when Abe called his name. Jasper turned around and saw Abe had at least put on pants.

“What Abe?”

“Let’s talk.”

“Why don’t we wait until Bella gets out of the shower so she can join us?”

“Lilly is gone.”

Jasper’s head turned toward the bathroom and raced towards it. Sure enough the shower was not running and Bella’s scent was nowhere nearby. He ran back into the bedroom to see them all standing except Alice who was lying in some sort of trance. He first thought she was just relaxing when he walked in but now saw that she was not moving.

“Where is Bella and why isn’t Alice moving?”

“Alice needed rest. She is fine, aren’t you Alice?”

Alice suddenly looked up and smiled. “I am perfect Abe. Thank you.”

“Peter and Charlotte were here last night. They will be waiting in the motel when you are ready.” Matthew said grinning at Jasper.

Jasper spoke clearly and slowly. “Where is Bella?”

“She took a walk. We will meet her in Italy in a week or so.”

“Not good enough. She could not have gotten far.”

“Don’t go after her. She has to go alone. You know this. You however, have a choice to make.”

“And I choose to go with her.”

“You said you would do anything to be with her. Remember?”

“Yes.”

“How much pain are you willing to go through for her?”

“What are you talking about? I would go through any pain to have her. To protect her.”

“You tried to bite her the first night you found her at the bar. You were willing to put her through days of excruciating pain to be with you. That was a selfish act.”

“A demon is going to give me a lesson about selfishness?” Jasper asked raising an eyebrow.

“No, the man is. The demon was actually impressed by the act.”

“So what? Yes I tried to turn her. Yes I knew it would hurt her. But the payoff…”

“Being with her forever, correct?”

“Yes.”

“Vampires cannot be mated to us. She belongs to the Master. She is to be Queen. The Master and his Queen were waiting for the right souls to inhabit. The Queen found hers first. The Master is ready for his soul to bind with a chosen being.”

“So you plan to bring this Master demon to our plane?”

“Yes, he does. We are but servants. We do as we are told. As part of our agreement.”

“So I am supposed to let Bella go to some evil demon that scared the hell, literally out of my Captain?”

“No, I didn’t say that. And you need to get over your fascination with good and evil. Both are important. You cannot have one without the other. You have been good and evil. You have inhabited a vampire body dealing with your personal demon. Lust for war. You had it since you were a child. You desired destruction. But you were not evil. When you became a vampire you forgot that you were not evil. It took Alice’s love for you to remind you of who you were.”

Jasper looked at Alice who was meeting his eyes with a nervous look. She apparently did not know what the hell was going on either.

“What is your point Abe?”

“What would you do to be with Bella? Would you let the Master bind with your soul and inhabit you. You could then claim her as your bride, you know.”

Jasper was silent for five minutes. No one in the room spoke during this time. They all stood and stared at him but no one spoke.

“I wouldn’t be me, would I? I would just be a body.”

“Is Lilly still the Bella you knew?”

“Yes, she is.”

“Then why do you think you would be any different? It is true that it would take an extremely strong man for the Master to inhabit and not take over. A man who could control the urges of the Master. A man who could handle the demon and still remain human. A man who is tied to humanity by love. The Master and the Queen feel love. And they love each other. They have for eternity and always will. They needed the souls of two humans who would love each other for eternity so there would be no conflict. A match that would last forever. Love for Lilly will keep you from losing yourself and give you both the strength to remain human and control the Demons.”

“Why would the Master give up control to me?”

“He isn’t. No more than Lillith gave up control to Bella. There are not two separate souls. There is only one. And to make this happen you had to love her. Love her because you truly love her, not because of a vampire mating call. This is a great gift you are being offered. The Master wants to share a soul with you. He is giving up as much control as you are.”

“Why?”

“Because you are worthy Jasper Whitlock.”

Jasper was a little stunned by these words. He had never considered himself as worthy of anything, even Bella. He was just thankful for what he had.

“Why isn’t a vampire mating strong enough? Vampires cannot change who they are mated to. It is eternal.”

“The Master cannot inhabit the body of a vampire. A vampire is a selfish creature. The power of the Master binding with a vampire would cause untold chaos.”

Jasper was getting frustrated by the riddles.

“If he can’t inhabit the soul of a vampire then how the fuck…” Jasper stopped, the answer hitting him even as he was speaking. He looked at Abe with wonder in his eyes.

“You gotta be fucking kidding me.”

Bella walked down the road in the heat of the West Texas sun. She was sweating. The sun felt good. She would most likely have a sunburn to heal later. She had walked 5 miles so far and her feet were getting tired. She supposed she could levitate but she didn’t want to give any indication to the twins that she was a threat. At least not yet. Not to say she wouldn’t have fun with them, she thought grinning. Bella wondered how she would like Italy. It isn’t like they would have to stay there for long if they didn’t want to. She had become quite fond of Texas cuisine. Even if a majority of it gave her heartburn and she had to stock up on Tums. Apparently her demon was good for healing but not so great when it came to gastrointestinal emergencies. She didn’t mind though. It reminded her that she was still human. And she appreciated the feeling. Her mind drifted to her Jasper. She knew he wanted only her. And she hoped it came to that. But she would still keep her Cindi and Alice. He would just have to understand. A girl had needs.

She was getting quite irritated until she finally saw a black limousine off in the distance heading at a high rate of speed straight for her. Not a lot of Limos in this part of Texas. It was either a rich oil man or her ride. Please let it be her ride.

She heard her Master whisper through the wind.

“Be strong my love. I will be with you soon.” The voice whispered in the wind.

She smiled as the car pulled to a stop in front of her. Two sparkling creatures got out and approached her.

“Bella Swan?” The young female asked her.

“Who’s asking?”

“My name is Jane and this is my brother Alec. We believe you knew a former friend of ours, Felix?”

“Yes. He had a small penis for such a large man.”

Jane sneered.

“Be that as it may, my Masters have instructed us to bring you to Italy to answer for the death of Felix Volturi.”

“My Master says you can go fuck yourself you little whore.” Bella spoke. She had the same flat face she showed Bill Perry in Forks.

“I was hoping you wouldn’t come willingly.” Jane smiled.

Bella knew she wasn’t a very good actress. She would have to feel this. She braced internally while showing no outward signs of concern.

And then the pain hit her. Bella screamed. She felt herself fall to the ground clutching at her hair.

And suddenly it was gone. She lay on the ground and looked at Jane who had a gleeful look on her beautiful face.

“Sister, shall I take her senses away?” Alec asked.

“And miss the fun? No. I think this Bella Swan will behave herself on the ride. Won’t you Bella?”

“Yes.” Bella whispered. That shit really hurt. She was going to enjoy killing this bitch. Or better yet…

She felt Alec’s cold hands lift her and drag her to the back of the limousine throwing her roughly in the backseat.

Neither of them talked on the way to the Sonora Municipal Airport. Apparently they had a private jet parked there. Alec grabbed Bella by her arm and pulled her to the jet parked on the tarmac. She looked around and saw the airport attendants were standing still, not moving, not seeing, not hearing.

They walked up the steps and entered the Jet. Jane told the pilot to take off. She walked over and sat Bella down in a plush seat and strapped her in.

“If you are a good girl I won’t tie you up. I personally hope you are a bad girl.”

Bella felt her power then. This time she couldn’t fall down. She sat straight up, screaming through gritting teeth. The pain wouldn’t stop.

“Sister, Aro wants her alive, not insane.”

Bella felt the pain fade as quickly as it came.

“Of course Alec.”

Bella felt the Jet leave the ground and looked out the window, wondering when she would see the desolate landscape she had grown to love again. But she would be back. Eventually. For now it was time to accept her destiny. She only hoped her King was involved in that destiny.

“So Bella, tell us about yourself.” She heard Jane say.

“Sister, I think Master Aro…”

“Alec you are being a real killjoy here. Maser Aro has never begrudged me having a little fun.”

“Of course sister.”

“I guess we know who wears the pants in ya’lls little relationship don’t we?” Bella pointed out.

She saw Jane stare at her. This time the pain was worse. She had been playing with her earlier.

“Now you answer the questions we ask. That is the only thing you need to say.”

Bella was breathing heavily. She was sweating. She looked up and noticed Alec was staring at her chest, rising and falling.

“Do you like her brother? You can have her. Just be careful. Aro doesn’t want her broken. For now.

“No. That is quite fine sister.”

At least Alec had the decency not to rape her. It was easy to see who the more sadistic one of the two was.

“So Bella, I’m curious. How good are you at dealing with pain.”

“I saw my father’s face peeled off and his heart torn out of his chest by a vampire. I found out over the phone that my mother had been mutilated by the same vampire. Yeah, I’m pretty good at taking pain.”

“So you…”

“I’m impressed Jane.”

“With what Bella?” Jane smiled her sweet little girl smile at her.

“That a 14 year old girl could kill 6 village girls without getting caught. At least until the 7th. The blacksmith walked in on you branding the poor girl’s chest with a red hot horse shoe, while Alec held her down. You were both to be burned as witches. The only difference is, you and Alec actually deserved it. I’m curious Alec. You refused to rape me but you had no problem doing it as a human when Jane instructed you too. Am I too old for you?”

“How did you know that?” Alec asked. Jane was becoming concerned not only with her knowledge but the fact that her eyes were turning completely black.

Jane stared at her again and was surprised when nothing happened. Bella’s face changed. Third degree burns, brand marks, were on her cheeks in the form of small horseshoes. She smiled at Jane and Jane noticed what looked like blood coating her teeth.

“YOU liked to bite them didn’t you Jane? That much innocent flesh? So soft. It felt so warm in your teeth. And the screams when you tore pieces off of them. My, my were the screams music to your ears. Aro liked you. He liked you both. Alec did what he was told but he really just liked watching you. Did you know he watched you bathe. Do you know he still lust’s after you? His own sister. That is sick. But you don’t mind do you? YOU have been teasing that boy with your sweet little ass for two thousand years…”

Jane sprung at Bella. Her throat was around her neck squeezing. Alec pulled her back.

“Master Aro wants her alive, Jane.” Bella began laughing. She was laughing so hard she doubled over in her seat.

“You think this is funny?”

“Yes,” Bella responded wiping tears from her eyes. “The blood of the innocent cries out for vengeance. They have been crying for a long time.” She told her, her smile changing to a glare.

The burn marks were gone from Bella’s face. Her eyes were brown again. The cabin temperature had dropped. Alec was scared.

“I am going to sleep now. Wake me when we get there. If any of you have any ideas of bothering me, get them out of your head now. Enjoy the time you have with each other. Alec, if you ever plan on having her now might be the time to do it. You are running out of time.”

Alec stared at Jane. Jane stared back.

“If you even think about it…”

“Of course not sister.”

‘Oh come on. What’s a little incest among family? Oh yeah, incest.” Bella smiled. She knew she would have fun with these two. So much sick repressed lust from him. So much anger and violence from her. Quite honestly it was better than any food she could have.

“well you two work it out. I’m taking a nap. As I said, don’t disturb me.” Bella closed her eyes and leaned her chair back. Soon she was deeply asleep. Alec stopped staring at Jane. They both looked at Bella.

“I am not going to let this girl sleep.” Jane hissed. She directed the full force of her power towards the slumbering human and… nothing. Not even a whimper.

Alec looked at Jane with wide eyes. Jane reached to grab Bella determined to torture her in some way. Alec grabbed Jane’s hand.

“Leave her be sister. This is too strange. Let the Master’s deal with her.”

Jane did not want to do this. But something held her back from attacking the human. Something in the back of her mind.

An hour later Bella Swan woke up.

“So are we there yet, you two? Have you been having fun while I slept?”

Neither said a word. They stared at her as if she was a puzzle to figure out.

“Do you have any board games or video games. Maybe electronic poker? Maybe a movie to watch? How far away can Italy really be?”

“We have 4 more hours.” Alec answered.

“That’s not good. I’m bored. Do you have anything to eat? I’m starving.”

“The only thing there is too eat on this plane is you.” Jane said, glaring at her.

“That’s kinky Jane but I’m guessing you are talking about my blood and not my lady parts?” Bella winked at her.

“You are very relaxed form someone who is about to be placed under extreme torture before you are executed.”

“And how shall I be executed dearest Jane?”

“I believe Aro said he was going to burn you at the stake before an audience. I plan to make sure you go the stake naked so I can see every single inch of your soft pale flesh turn black and fall from your body.”

“That’s not very nice Jane.” Bella said, her flat voice returning. “You remember how hot the flames were. Without Aro to save you, you would have been burned. You and your brother. Why would you do that to someone else?”

“But it didn’t happen to me.”

“True. Just like no one ever tore the flesh off of you like you did to your victims. Would you like to know what it feels like? I have been working on a new technique to tear the flesh from vampires. I almost have it down. Want to be my test dummy?”

Jane struck so quickly Alec could not stop her. She struck Bella in the face causing her head to spin completely around. The twins heard the snap of her neck and watched her body go limp. Alec stared at Jane in horror.

“What have you done? Aro will be so angry! We were supposed to bring her alive. Aro wanted to torture her. He had plans for her body.”

Jane was suddenly very nervous. She had been entrusted with a task and she had failed. No one failed the Brothers. But she had been baited. Surely Aro could see that. She had knowledge of their past. Surely she was a demon who had to be killed. Aro would understand. As those thoughts were running in her mind, she never noticed the hand hurtling towards her face, landing on her cheek and twisting her head completely around. She twisted her head back to the front of her body and saw Alec staring in horror at Bella Swan. Bella Swan who was currently glaring at her.

“It’s not nice to slap someone you fucking bitch. What is it with vampires and breaking necks anyway?”

“Uh…” Alec was speechless.

“Since you two do not want to have a nice conversation about your childhood, we will sit here and not say a word. Jane bring me a magazine to read. I know you have some in the top compartment.”

Jane did not want to do anything for the devil in front of her. She was very afraid. Despite this she found herself standing and reaching into the compartment. She handed Bella a magazine. Bella smiled at her.

“Listen you two. When we land you are not going to remember killing me. You are going to remember torturing me and I cried and screamed and begged you too kill me. Understand?”

They both nodded. Jane felt better. She hadn’t failed the brothers.

Sonora Texas

Jasper stood in front of the black door. Abe opened the door and Jasper followed him inside. Abe closed the door and Jasper realized he was in complete darkness.

“Abe? What the hell is this?”

“It is time to meet the Master, Jasper Whitlock.”

Jasper couldn’t see anyone. But he knew someone or something was there.

He turned around reaching out with his hands to feel anything he could. And then he felt coldness. He felt two hands on his shoulders. The Master was taller than him. He didn’t know how tall but he sensed it was very tall.

“Jasper, welcome. I am excited about what we will accomplish together.” His voice was like silk. Smooth and soothing.

“Hello.” Jasper responded not knowing what else there was to say.

“Jasper do you remember being turned into a vampire?”

“Of course.” He whispered. Jasper would never forget the agony. The searing pain.

It took you three and a half days to turn. For venom to completely leave your body. Reversing this will take longer. And be more painful. Can you endure the pain and not go insane? I need your soul strong. In order for us to be wrong, you cannot be insane.”

Jasper nodded. “I can handle the pain. I can handle anything.”

“Why do you think this Jasper Whitlock?”

“I have to do this for Bella.”

“Good. Hold on to her and you will be fine. Are you ready?”

Jasper nodded his head.

“Good. Abaddon, you may leave. We will see you in 6 days. At that time we will be one. You and the family will answer to me. Jasper Whitlock.”

“Yes Master.” Jasper heard Abe’s voice in the background.

The Master pulled Jasper closer to him.

“Demons are not known for being truthful all the time Jasper, believe it or not. You will soon though no all my secrets as our souls will be one. Just as Lillith’s soul is one with Bella. That being said, I am not going to lie to you. This is going to hurt.”

Jasper closed his eyes and felt the Master’s teeth bite his neck. The bite burned. He laid back his head and screamed. The Master lay him in the floor and stood over him. When Jasper awoke they would become one. Not until then. Once this was complete he would join his Lilly. He could feel her now. He needed her. Once she had left this plane he had desired to be inside her. In the flesh. And what he desired was about to come true. He could not have found a more worthy warrior to share his soul than the one laying at his feet, currently feeling the venom leaving his body.
