A/N: Do you remember me and this story? I hope so, I am so sorry and I apologize this update took so long. I have not forgotten thugmett and company. I really did struggle with this chapter, I have rewritten it 3 or 4 times, so for better or worse, here we go"
EmPOV:
That under armour shit, I swear it's better than a bullet proof fucking vest, and whoever made that shit should be fucking nominated for saint hood, and I had to give Cullen some serious props for making me wear it since I wouldn't even consider a goddam vest that night. I had been dead set against it, those fucking things made me sweat like a motherfucker, and after a heated discussion with Cullen, who threatened to make a noose out of my vocal cords, if I didn't wear anything. I just put the shit on to shut him the fuck up.
That night was some shit I would never forget, I almost lost my son and really believed I was going to fucking die., the bullet that Aro's ass fired at me on the fly upped his level of bitchassness and only accomplished in giving me a flesh wound dam near made me go deaf from the kickback when the shit shattered the bassinet my son was being kept in. The thing is, when a bullet hits under armour, it stings and fucking knocks the wind out of you, and apparently your fucking brain needs that dam wind and if it don't get it, you pass the fuck out. I fucking passed out from lack of fucking oxygen and shock.
Whatever, but when I woke up, I was pissed, I couldn't remember the shit I needed to remember, my fucking ears were ringing and I couldn't remember if my son had survived, and the biggest part of this fuckery was that grease ball Aro had managed to grab Rose and Gia and get away from the docks. But he was so bold to send me text messages all night telling me how he was going to video tape my children's murder and make sure he recorded when he raped my girl and had her screaming his name and begging for him to never stop. My vision was just a clouded red haze. I was on a level of pissed off.
We were at my apartment on the North side of Chicago, it was about ten thirty in the morning, I had just been released from the hospital and was anxious to get home to Belly and see what was what with the kids, but what happened next would prevent me from seeing Bella and the kids for a while. We were just chillin I had got into a game of ops with J dizzy on the xbox and Ben was in an intense game of angry birds on his black berry. We were waiting on my dad to come back to get shit rolling, when there was a knock on the door. As I walked toward the door, instinct made me reach for my eagle and cock it back Jasper and Ben did the same, Cullen sparked up some green and leaned back on the couch and bellowed
"Who the fuck is it, and what the fuck do you want?"
The door opened slightly and this little blonde chick walked in with an envelope. Good afternoon sirs, my name is Irina and I work as a concierge for the building, I was given this envelope and asked to hand deliver it to you.
The envelope was all back a thick ass material, I recognized the pattern, and turned it over to see the Volturi crest stamped onto the back in thick red ink had also been used to seal the envelop shut. I ripped through it and should be use to the cloud of red haze that clouds my vision, but this was some other level shit.
Emmett
Game over, I win, you lose, you and your family will die, your wife your children hell even your fucking goldfish will either surrender, or parish. I will end you
Sincerely
Aro Volturi
I stood there for a second, because I was seriously losing my shit, did this old motherfucker really just threaten my wife my kids and my fucking fish, I don't even have a dam goldfish, but if I did- I shook that thought. He had really gone outside of his goddam mind. I had to handle this.
"Ben I want the Irish Greeks Germans and Mexicans, I want them in the meeting room before the end of the night or I swear I will sell you to Mexican Drug lords as a mule. Jasper you have exactly 3 minutes to have my father and Felix standing right the fuck in front of me.
Drumming my fingers on my desk, I thought about Bella at the hospital with the kids all night. I sent Paul to the hospital, to get them, I wanted Bella and Brooklyn by my side at all times, I wanted my sons watched twenty four seven, until I caught this sick bastard, I knew he was pissed, I still had his daughters, and that was the thing I had I knew he wouldn't gamble with.
Fifteen minutes late Bella walked in with Brooklyn in her arms.
"hey Baby" I said forcing a smile and holding my arms open for my daughter.
"What happened Emmett, you scared the hell out of me" she said
"Nothing baby, I just missed you and my baby girl, you know I just need to have you two around me" I tried to force a smile, but Belly saw right through that shit.
"Emmett, what's going on, and if you tell me nothing the back of your head is going to make nice with the palm of my hand.
"Baby, not right here, not right now, I will tell you shit, but give me some time to try to work some shit out okay?" I asked and hoped like a motherfucker that it would pacify her right now.
"Tonight Emmett, and don't for one minute think I'm gonna let you blow this off, or give me some bullshit it's fine story." she said walking out of the room.
Two hours later, I felt more fucking calm, I felt like we had a plan, and some friends in low places
let me know that Caius and Aro had separated. I was gonna use that shit to my advantage.
I called this dude named Antareus he was a really good friend, and he was well connected with the Greeks, I told him that we had eyes on Caius and knew he knew some shit and needed him to talk, he was all for letting us use the basement of his club, he said something about he had the perfect setting for making someone tell what they knew.
"You cool with letting us use your shit on opening night like that bro" I asked leaning back in my chair lighting my cigar.
"Emmett, I owe you one, you know for that thing we did, so yes, in fact bring that pretty girl of yours, a fully comped VIP room, I mean in all honest, you are a shareholder, I have to take care of my investors" he said with a small laugh.
"Yeah I feel you man, and I do need to bring my lady out, alright I will roll through with the usual crew, so make sure you got room for us all man, you know how we do"
"Yes, of course, and bring your little friend, we talk to him, and see if he can help us" I knew he was being cryptic
"Yeah, I'll see you later on man, thanks for the comp man, you on my Christmas list" I said ending the call.
I had Caius picked up and held until I had time to deal with him at the club, I was gonna get this shit handled and be done with this fucker tonight. I gave the order to tie his ass up in the warehouse until tonight, I was gonna show Bella a good time. I knew Bella was getting stir crazy and so was Angela, Ben was going outside of his mind because Angie was constantly bitching about how they never went out anymore.
"Alright fellas, go get your shit together, we at Atlas tonight Eleven thirty and if you're late I got a boot to shove right the fuck down your throats" I said and walked out. I walked downstairs and told Bella we were leaving. I took her to do something I hadn't got to do at all day, I went to see my sons. The more time I got to spend with the boys. The easier calming down got.
I held Anthony a lot. I had this bond with him now, this little man didn't know but I would have died that night as long as he got to stay with his mother, brother, and sister. After about a couple of hours, we were ushered out the back of the hospital and into the car to head home. We were pretty quiet for the first part of the ride, Bella looked like she was off in her own head, but I knew it was cause she wanted to bring the boys home with us, but I knew it would be soon.
"Bella" I whispered it with a smile, I just loved saying her name, I loved her and how she looked at me with those brown eyes.
"What baby?"
"We're going out tonight baby, I need you to look hot as hell, We doing the relaunch of the clubs that I took from Aro, so I know the media and shit gonna be there" I said.
Her face lit the fuck up. I knew it, she had been stuck in the house for too fucking long, I was a fucking dick, I got to chill with my boys, play video games, and bang the boards at the park playing basketball, and she was stuck in the house or at the hospital never getting to do the shit she wanted to do.
"I'm sorry belly" was the only thing I could think to say, I seriously felt bad for the girl, I bought her into this world and then took the one think she had always wanted, I took her freedom away from her.
"For what baby?" she asked turning towards me.
For the first time in a long time, I just said what was on my mind, I told her how I felt like I had taken her freedom from her, how I had ruined her life and I felt like an asshole for it.
She just smiles and shook her head. "No you didn't you gave me everything I never knew I wanted or needed. I love you Emmett and nothing you could ever say or do will ever change that" and leaned over and kissed me, I knew then that yep she was the girl I couldn't be without ever.
We got back to the house and Bella ran off to do whatever it is that females do when they getting ready. I went down to the fridge and took a big ass drink off my bottle of Bacardi O and looked at my watch, we had some time so I went and checked my blackberry and was surprised when I had nothing, no texts no emails, nothing. I fired a text off to Ben who told me they had just got to the club and the head of the Greeks was there, and waiting on me, he was interested in me, more networking more connections, and that is how business is done. I got in the shower and just stood under the spray and shut everything out. When I got out of the shower I wrapped a towel around my waist and walked into the bedroom and was stopped fucking cold, my girl, holy shit that ass, she had on these white boots, with these high ass heels and dragons all over them, and this skirt, well the shit really was nothing but a piece of a fucking skirt. It had a dragon on it too, but the shit was so short you could see her thighs, she was doing something to her hair and stood up when she saw me and I couldn't fucking breathe for a minute, having my kids did wonders for her fucking body, she had more curves, her fucking tits were making my mouth water, the shirt she was wearing was this sheer dam near see through long ass shirt it only had one button so you could see the sides of her breasts, her cleavage and her hips, and my fucking handprints on her hips, I groaned, I fucking groaned, dam my girl was looking fucking good.
"See something you like baby?" she asked with a small smile
"Dam right I do, but I'll handle that shit later, I mean we can now right?" I was a shit I had completely let her health and what was going on with her completely go out of my head. I mean other than giving birth, she had dam near died.
"Let me worry about that Emmy" she said in this voice that went straight to my dick, and even better she dropped to her knees in front of me and took me in her mouth, I couldn't help it, I was staring down at her I pushed the hair out of her face watching her lips take me in the fucking heat that was her wet little mouth. Her head moved back and forth, I groaned when she got her tongue involved slowly running it up and down my shaft. I knew I wasn't gonna last long, I knew it had been too fucking long and Bella was too fucking good, the moans, the whimpers, and the way she worked her tongue. I fucking exploded down her throat, she swallowed everything I gave her and then licked me clean. I helped her up on her feet and she gave me that shy smile and batted her eyelashes at me.
"I love you Emmy" She said standing up on her toes and kissing me on the cheek.
I smacked her on the ass. "Go finish getting ready, we leaving in fifteen, and I love you too belly" I said grabbing some Kleenex to wipe the lip gloss off my dick smirking. Yeah I was a pretty lucky motherfucker. After dam near having to drag Bella away from Brooklyn and Esme we were in the whip heading for downtown and the club.
As we slowly made our way to the front of the club the line was around the fucking block, everyone wanted to see what McCarty and company were up to.
They noticed my car as it turned the corner and before Bella and I knew it, the car was surrounded by photographers and the lights were dam near blinding, there were so many of them.
"You alright baby?" I asked
"Uhh dam when did you get to be this dam popular?" she laughed and pulled down the visor to check her lipstick and her hair, that's my fucking baby right there, shy and innocent, but dam she tough as hell. I was proud as a motherfucker.
Getting out of the car, the shit nearly made me laugh, these fuckers didn't want shit to do with me, they all wanted pictures of Bella. Everyone screaming for her asking her what she was wearing, she went with it, rolled her eyes and huffed a lot, but every few steps another flash went off, and finally we were inside, the music was loud and thumping, the place was packed, a lot of these fuckers, were associates from new York, Atlanta, California, Texas, Greece, Mexico. The whole Fucking family, the only one missing was Carlisle, but he never comes to shit like this. Yeah this was gonna be a long night.
I kept my woman close to me, cocky as I am I saw the way dudes was eye fucking her as we made our way to the VIP room that Antareus had designated family only. It really was like a family fucking reunion, fist bumps and hugs all around, it had been a while since we had all been together like this, the girls all screaming and hugging.
The screens were pulled in front of our balcony and that's when the real fun started, Cullen sparked a blunt and I had to hit that shit, we did a few shots, and the next thing I knew, the cocaine came out. I did a few lines and fuck I felt good, the music sounded better, liquor tasted better and fuck I felt ten feet tall and bullet proof. This is why I rarely ever do coke; the shit is too fucking intense for me. I looked over at Bella who was just staring at me with wide eyes, oh yeah that's fucking right, she has never seen me do shit like this. She's never seen me out with the boys. I blew a kiss at her, and she smirked and rolled her eyes at me and turned back to the girls.
I thought back to the first night I met her, the body shot we did, the Patron with the training wheels. I walked up behind her my hands running up and down her hips, she fucking shivered, I walked her away from the girls into our own private corner and spun her around, She looked up at me and moaned.
"Dance with me baby" was all she said
"You know I hate to dance" I laughed
"Too bad, you're dancing with me tonight" She said as she grabbed my hand, pulling me down the stairs to the dance floor, the view I had of her ass, I would have followed her into the pits of fucking hell.
The song switched,
I pulled Bella into my arms and had her grinding against me, her eyes were all glassed over, she was fucking lit, I knew she had been drinking, but dam, when she got this kind of drunk it was fucking hot.
The beat of the song, her scent it was like a fucking drug to me, the purest kind of drug, Bella, all Bella
(Oh, baby) I don't wanna lie,
I'm gonna take what you're giving
'Cause I know you're willing,
To take me all the way..you got me right here.
Combustible. And I can't wait to finally explode.
She turned and her ass, that perfect ass was right against my dick I ran my hands down her sides digging my fingertips into her side, she leaned her head to the side looking up at me licking her lips
The big big bang, the reason I'm alive,
When all the stars collide, in this universe inside.
The big big bang
Some people like to talk, but I'm into doing,
What I feel like doing, when I'm inspired.
So, if we take a walk down, the beach tonight,
I bet we could light up the sky.
I leaned down and kissed her ran my tongue across her lips she opened her mouth and started sucking on my tongue, my hands rested on her bare stomach, flat and smooth our hips grinding together.
The big big bang, the reason I'm alive,
When all the stars collide, in this universe inside.
The big big bang
Take it from me, I don't wanna be, mummified,
Sometimes I feel so isolated,
I wanna die. and I'll take it from you, if you got it.
Every time, so baby,
Bring your body here, next to mine.
Next to mine!
I don't wanna dream!
I just wanna live it
So baby, let's not lets miss this thing!
I leaned down and whispered in her ear "so fucking hot". She turned her head and took my earlobe into her mouth. Arching her body so her ass was right up against me, and I had to fucking fight the urge to groan, it had been to fucking long. She raised her arms and clasped her hands behind my head and we finished the song. She turned around and stared at me licking her lips.
"I want you right fucking now" I whispered to her
"I have to have you" she moaned back.
I grabbed her hand and led her back up the stairs, passed our crew and nodded to Lando, he was the general manager, but he knew who I was, he nodded towards the back office, he knew what was up, I grabbed my beer bottle and gave my crew a shit eating grin, Cullen flipped me the bird and Jasper just shook his head.
Thirty minutes later, after I had bent Bella over Lando's desk, driving into her so fucking hard, I dam near shoved Bella and the desk through the wall grabbing handfuls of her hair as she screamed out fuck me harder daddy, which nearly fucking blew my dam ego through the roof, I was zipping up my pants, Bella was trying to right her skirt and fix her hair, she looked thoroughly fucked.
"Emmett, did you put on a condom" she said turning around putting this lip gloss shit on her lips, I was picking my glock up off the desk and putting it back under my shirt. I laughed when I looked up and said.
"Did it feel like I had a fucking condom on?" I said lighting a cigar
She giggled and we left the office with her tucked into my side, when we got back to the table and Bella went back over the girls, and I flopped down on the couch next to Jasper.
"Sup J dizzy" I said
"Nothing, the Greek Don is on his way up with his wife, he wants to meet you and Bella" he said looking bored.
"What's your issue Jazz, something aint right with you" my boy was off.
"I got some shit on my head man, no big deal, I think, I'm gonna call this shit a night and head home. I got my cell so if you need anything just hit me up" he made to get up and I stopped him.
"Dude have you fucking forgot what we got brewing down in the basement?" I whispered in his ear.
"No I didn't forget, I just simply don't give a fuck, this back and forth with Aro and Caius is getting old quick. We need to knock both of the asses off the fucking radar. I'm over this shit" he said lowering his head running his fingers through his hair. I kinda had to laugh, that's how I knew him and Cullen had spent too much fucking time together. Cullen was developing this weird fucking southern accent, and Jas was starting to fuck with his hair.
"What the fuck are you trying to say, that you think Aro ain't a big deal, that motherfucker tried to kill me and Anthony" I whispered harshly.
"Yeah, and you have his kids, so where does this shit end man, why are we gonna keep chasing our fucking tails, I mean shit we got the Mexicans chomping at the bit for us to take their contracts, we could be fucking quadrupling our numbers, but instead we fucking chasing Aro and Caius's dumb ass all over the goddam country, from NY to Chi, what's next Emmett, we gonna take this shit to Atlanta with us?"
"So what are you trying to fucking suggest we do Jas, since you know so fucking much?" I was getting frustrated.
"Fuck questioning Caius; just give the order to kill his ass. You know eventually Aro, Gia and Rose will appear somewhere, they too fucking stupid not to. Go meet Damaris before he gets all fucking floppy with that you respect the don shit. I mean when it comes to you, you're the Capo, but we both know we don't need the bullshit right now" Jas said
I went behind Bella, leaned down and kissed her shoulder, stopping her conversation. "Excuse me ladies, Bella baby, there is someone we have to meet" I grabbed her hand and made my way over to Aro's former boss, Andreas. A long time ago the Greeks and the Italians had made a truce of sorts, they decided that the Italian family would be their own entity, but at first they needed the muscle and the financial backing of the Greeks. Damaris, was the heir to the Greek family. He was an younger than Aro but way older than, I hadn't seen him lately, the fucker had been hidden away in Greece with his wife.
I led Bella over to the where he was sitting with his wife, and what I saw made my fuckin jaw drop to the ground, I was just looking Andreas's wife for a second and I swear I couldn't even come up with the words to explain the shit I was looking at. I lost my shit I couldn't move and I couldn't speak. She looked up and then shit started happening so fucking fast. She stood up and started to cry out my baby.
I looked over at D and at Bella, they were just standing there, looking just as fucking confused as I was, until both women turned around. He turned white and was a step away from going off the deep end. I had to look for a second; she and D's wife looked just a fucking like. It was kinda crazy, but then I realized something, she looks like D too
"Bella, baby what's going on?" I croaked. D's wife and Bella turned around, both with eyes full of tears. They were dam near identical right down to the long ass hair and deep eyes, this shit just got fucking weird.
"Emmett, oh my god Emmett, thank you" she squealed
"For what, what the hell is going on?" I was seriously fucking confused.
Andreas's wife threw her arms around Bella and they were both crying and shit, I grew more and more confused. They were blubbering about being sorry, and trying to find her, but Charlie did this and some other shit.
"Emmett, she's my oh my god, this is my mom" Bella cried
"What the hell?" was echoed from about four or five people.
Bella had never spoken about her mother, she had mentioned once that her father had kicked her mom out, and refused to let Bella see her mom and would fly off the handle whenever Bella would ask for her.
"What the hell do you mean she's your mom, I mean, what the fuck Belly?" was all my brilliant ass could say
I looked away to Cullen and Jasper who gave me a nod to say things with Caius were going as plan, I gave Jasper a shrug telling him to do whatever it what he thought was the right thing, and Cullen looked relieved. Which was weird cause him and Jasper never really agreed on very much anymore.
I turned back to the two crying hugging women in front of me. I had no idea what to do or even say, this shit was on another level of just fucking crazy.
"Bella, you gonna explain or what?" I asked.
The four of us sat down, Andreas kept looking at Bella, and then said,
"Wow Renee, she really does look like the perfect combination of the both of us"
"Wait, what does he mean both of you? Charlie is who you left me with" Bella said confused.
"Bella, there is a reason for everything, I did what we thought was the best for you, I mean when I met Charlie, I was on the run from your father, I was pregnant with you, and I felt safe with Charlie. When your father and I got back together, you were 5 and Charlie and I had been raising you together. He told me to leave, to never come back, that I could never see you again" she said wringing her hands.
"So Charlie, isn't really my father, and he knew that?" Bella asked.
"I was already pregnant with you when we met, and thought I would never see Dre again, and Charlie, well, he was willing to take care of both of us, but D is good man, and he wanted his family back" Renee looked down
"This is just, wow this is just too many kinds of fucked up" Bella said
"Watch your mouth, such horrible things should never come out of the mouth of such a beautiful young girl" D said sitting back giving me a look that said control your woman, or I will.
"Fuck you, you're not my father" Bella spat
"But I am little girl, stop acting like a spoiled petulant child, this is why you should have been with your mother and I, then you would learn respect, and how to act in the presence of men of our stature, Emmett, dear god boy, have you taught her nothing" then I felt like an ass, because in a way he was my boss, I should be impressing him, but this shit had just stunned me. My girl was really a fucking Greek mob princess, but she was raised by a fucking pig, while her capo father and his wife his out in Greece, while she went through all that shit with that bitch add dude Jake.
"D man you know I got nothing but respect and love for you, but in all seriousness, kiss my ass, you don't know shit about Bella, or what she went through, and then you fucking show up here, on my night, drop this shit in her lap and have the cojones to lecture us on respect? Get bent motherfucker, your ass should have been here to get here when she was 12 and her fucking father got shot to death, and she was by herself, but nah your ass was living the high life over in Greece, while the crew over here did your dirty work, put in your work, and your daughter was fucking tortured and shit." I say back and lit my cigar and pulled Bella into my lap, my father would have shit his pants and had a litter of pigs right here on the floor if he had heard me talk to D like that, but he wasn't gonna disrespect Bella like that.
"You love her don't you?" Renee asked looking at the both of us.
Hell yeah I do, she knows I would do anything for her. She is my whole world." I said kissing her temple
The four of us sat there eating dinner as the rest of the crew moved on with the night around us, Jasper came upstairs his hair was a mess and he was sweating, when he leaned down into my ear and whispered.
"We got Gia, she downstairs, she won't give up where Aro is though"
Bella looked over and her eyes narrowed. "Did that bitch have anything to do with my son's disappearance?" she seethed
"We think so baby, but we ain't sure, don't worry baby I'm going to handle her" I said soothing her
"Emmett, I know what you do, I'm not stupid" she said as she leaned over and whispered in my ear "If that two faced bitch had anything to do with our son being stolen, you kill her, hell if you can't do it because she's a girl, let me do it, I will take care of her for laying a hand on my son" she sneered
I should have reprimanded her, I should have told her to stay the hell out of my business, but Bella talking like that fucking made me hard, so hard I started running this fantasy in my head of taking bella to the gun range, teaching her to shoot. I shook that thought when Ben came and said Gia was requesting an audience with me.
"I want to go with you" Bella said holding on to my hand
"Don't you want to sit here and talk with your mom and dad" I asked her
"No, I wanna be with you Emmett" she was whinning now and she knew that shit drove me fucking crazy.
I got down close by her ear and whispered in a voice that could freeze the fucking ocean "Bella keep up the fucking whinning and I will leave you up here, we go downstairs, you stay behind me the whole time, you don't speak unless I tell you too, do you hear me?"
She twisted her face up for a split second, I was waiting on her to mouth off, but it never came.
"Nice seeing you again D, but I got some stuff to handle with Antareus, so I'll get up with you before you go home man" I said sticking my hand out
"No, Bella you can't leave, I just found you" Renee squeaked.
"We'll see eachother again, I just need to go with Emmett, let's get together for brunch or something, call me tomorrow" Bella called over her shoulder as I pull her along.
I had to laugh at what I saw when we got downstairs. Rosalie, Caius and Gianna, all tied to chairs all bruised and beaten. I heard Bella growl behind me and I laughed.
"Down there Holyfield" I said giving her hand a squeeze and sitting her in a chair behind the desk.
Bella was little as hell in that big ass chair, but motherfuck she looked fucking beautiful, all that long wavy hair around her shoulder, the scowl on her face as she glared at Rosalie, with her legs crossed and the long ass heel on her boot bouncing, I just wanted to take her over that fucking desk.
Rosalie started to cry as soon as she saw all of us, Bella rolled her eyes and started to laugh. I looked over at her and cocked my brow.
"Emmett if you think those fucking tears are real, then you're crazy" she sneered looking right at Rosalie.
"Fuck you, you stupid bitch" Rosalie screamed. Bella leaped out of the chair and was bound right for Rosalie when I grabbed her around the waist, whispering in her ear that if she didn't get her attitude under control, I was sending her back upstairs to her mother. She pouted and folded her arms with the death glare.
"Next time, I won't stop her from fucking you up" I said to Rose
"I aint scared of that little fucking bitch" Rosalie gritted out. Even though she was scared as hell, she was doing pretty good fucking job of trying to act all tough and shit. Bella sucked in a breath, she tried to control her shit, but she lost and lunged again, this time I stepped aside thinking she was gonna just beat her ass, but what she did, I never saw coming as she lunged forward, she grabbed my eagle and fired a shot and hit Rose right in the chest. Blew a hair out of her eye and said "Bitch I'm the only one you should be scared of" as she let the gun turn on her finger and motioned for me to take it.
"Emmett hurry up and finish that other bitch, I'm ready to go home" she said looking bored.
For a minute we all just stood there, my innocent quiet shy little Bella, just offed my ex.
"Dam girl, what the fuck was that?" Cullen said with a smirk
"That was what the bitch gets for fucking with not only my son, but my man too, now can we get on with this bullshit, I miss my baby" she said with a wave of her hand.
My girl, had just earned her stripes, and her street cred, and I was fucking hard as steel.
