Isaiah's POV -
it had been three days since Flint had threatened me, three days of watching this girl. in that time I had came to realize that our little human girl wasn't as human as everyone believed. she definitely gave the hunters a run for their money that was sure, I chuckled at the thought.
to think that the one they were trying to protect, was also the one they were hunting.
the next day I watched her leave the auto repair shop with a older lady, that she lived with and then had to watch her and that love sick fool of a hunter. he had no idea who or what she was.
once he left she seemed to retire to the front room, a sinister smile spread across my face. I had to bring her in but Flint didn't say I couldn't have a bit of fun first.
I loved the look of surprise and then fear that fell across her face as I materialized in the corner of her lounge room.
she jumped off the lounge, my smile widened.
"well,well hello serpentine. what a pleasure to see you again, I believe we have a mutual acquaintance, Axis "
she looked at me, her eyes going wide then flicking to the door.
"hhow do, wwhat do you want?" she asked her eyes darting to the front window.
"ah my dear how do I know what you are?, well I know quite a lot of thing and their is no need to involve the hunter on guard. Don't you recognize me?"
"of course I remember you, you asshole's tried to kidnap me at the club" she retorted
I tapped my chin " yes, and if your little hunters hadn't interrupted we would have succeeded."
"wwhat do you want?" she repeated with a quiver in her voice.
ignoring her question " I wonder what your little hunter would think or do if he found out what you were and what you've done"
she stiffed slightly at my words.
"I didn't know" she whispered
I started laughing clapping my hands together enjoying it immensely.
"this just keeps getting better and to think I was just gonna deliver you to Flint"
JJ's POV -
frozen in place fear flooded me as a black cloud materialized in the corner of my lounge room and the demon named Isaiah stepped out with a sinister smile spread across his face.
I jumped off the lounge, to shocked to say a word.
I’d had little experience with demons other then the ones that came to the auto shop for the occasional healing. I didn’t know why this demon was in my lounge room or why this Flint guy wanted me so bad but to be honest I wasn’t sure I wanted to know.
It hit me all at once. The sinister power that rushed over me it was stifling. For a moment I found it hard to breathe. It was strong, like aged whiskey mixed with cold coffee. It was just so dark and sinister. their was no other way to describe it.
Like all demons I’d seen, he looked human, greek I think. a bit over Average height with shining black hair, he was quite attractive. I found that most demons I had seen at the shop had a in human beauty a façade, but it only hid their true face's. Even from across the room I could make out how inhuman his black soulless eyes were.
His voice was like a dark, somber melody, immediately mesmerizing.
he started laughing clapping his hands together, his eyes twinkled with amusement.
he continued to talk
"this just keeps getting better and to think I was just gonna deliver you to Flint"
i shuffled uncomfortable with the way he looked me over with those creepy black eyes. I lifted my head and met his gaze directly and concentrated on staying calm but alert.
"who is this Flint guy and what does he want with me?" I demanded
he looked at me and tapping his finger against his chin, like he was assessing me. “Alright, Flint is the leader of an ancient order known as The Order Of Asmodeus. he is connoisseur or collector I guess.
I jumped back at the sound of the front window suddenly exploded as sebastian came crashing through and landed between myself and Isaiah and Beau appeared in the hallway.
Oh s**t.
Isaiah smile widened "ah, I see our time together has come to an end once again. it's a shame really."
Beau glared at Isaiah "I think you are mistaken my friend, your time has come to an end"
" tsk tsk, Sorry, kiddo. but You don't have the juice to take me on nephilim" Isaiah said with a sneer.
Beau looked at me "don't listen to a word from his filthy mouth, The Order Of Asmodeus, their leader Flint is it? only wishes to have complete power and control to rule over human kind"
my eyes widened as I looked from Beau to Isaiah
"well it seems someones been busy, for one who knows so much but... your obviously not the sharpest tool in the shead are you nephilim?"
Beau laughed without a hint of humor, "well obviously you know something I don't.
" oh that i do but why ruin the fun, i will see you again JJ and next time we won't be interrupted" with that Isaiah disappeared
Beau grabbed me "are you hurt? did he hurt you?"
"no" i crocked out shaking my head
i watched as Beau paced back and forth while running his hand through his hair.
he spun on me "i told you it wasn't safe for you here, but you just won't listen" grabbing me by my arm he started to pull me towards the front door.
"just wait a god dam minute" yanking my arm from his grasp
" i already told you i ain't going anywhere with you this is my home Beau" i said with my hand on my hips
Beau started to pace again mumbling curses as he went. Beau fought to maintain his control as he grabbed me again. “I’m getting you out of here. I can’t protect you from the order by myself. The only place you’ll be safe is if you come with me.” Beau said as he looked into my eyes. " I already told you I'm not going anywhere!" "God damit jj do you have a death wish?"
Beau turned towards the door and walked out slamming it as he went.
Beau POV -
I fought to maintain control as fear gripped me. I grabbed JJ and looked in to her eyes “I’m getting you out of here. I can’t protect you from the order by myself. The only place you’ll be safe is if you come with me.” " I already told you I'm not going anywhere!" JJ said through gritted teeth.
"God damit jj do you have a death wish?" I demanded.
letting go of JJ i turned towards the door and walked out slamming it as i went.
as I stood at the front of JJ's house I reached in to my back pocket and pulled out my phone, running my hand through my hair I dialed Shane.
"ay Beau, how's your little nephilim"? asked Shane with a hint of amusement
rolling my eyes "she's not my little nephilim" I replied in a irritated tone.
Shane laughed "yeah right, sure she's not"
ignoring his comment I continued "actually I'm at JJ's place now i just arrived so I could try to convince jj about just how much danger she is in and as I was entering the house I felt a malevolent presence I mindlinked sebastian
and of course you know sebastian he came crashing through the front window as I entered the front room only to find one of the order members".
"oh s**t, is jj alright" Shane asked with a hit of concern
"yeah JJ's fine, but I'm worried she refuses to leave and knowing that creep can come and go from JJ's place with out being detected has me worried.
gritting my teeth in frustration.
"I want her to trust me enough to leave and not resent me for tryingto keep her safe"
I racked my brain for answers, but nothing came to me.
"I know man, but you have to take in to consideration that she is an independent woman and obviously isn't aware of the mate bond or how it's affecting you,
maybe you need to take a step back and let me or your dad step in for a bit"? he suggested.
"no I can't, I can't leave her unprotected " I said raising my voice.
"and what you think we would"? asked Shane with a hint of disbelief in his voice. "do you really think any of us would leave her unprotected "
"no" letting out a long breath trying to calm myself
"maybe your right. it's just, God even just thinking about leaving makes my chest ache"
I turned as I heard the door open sebastian poking his head out "just a heads up jj's friend matty is on his way over. nodding I ended my call with Shane and headed towards sebastian
"how is she" I asked
"she's a bit shaken up, but she'll be ok. actually I think she's more worried about you to be honest. said sebastian with a hint of a smile.
the corners of my mouth twitch, I was relieved to know I wasn't the only one affected by the mate bond.
sebastian step back as I was about to enter the front door when a black sedan pulled up the drive with a squeak of tyres as the driver hit the brakes with force.
I narrowed my eyes as jj's friend Matty exited the care, with speed no human could possibly possess he was at the door
"where is she" he demanded
