36. Normal
Edward
"Wait, what do you mean it was your dad's idea?" I asked.
She looked down at her shoes.
"I didn't know what else to do. You guys were coming up empty handed. So I called my dad and asked him for some help. What did you mean it was his idea?"
"PJ told Pierre what was happening and was working with him on the case. Your dad told PJ that if I pled guilty the others would go free. It was my fault they were in trouble and I couldn't have all of us locked away. I needed someone here to take care of you and the kids."
"Jasper…" she whispered, looking at him and he nodded.
"You guys…" she said, looking at the floor of the car.
"What is it?" I asked.
"The lengths you would go to…" she said. "I just can't believe you two."
"I couldn't trust anyone else with your safety."
"I have a confession to make," she said, eyes in her lap. "I was the one who asked my dad to work with PJ. I promised him that if he got you off then..."
I pulled her chin up with my finger so I could see her eyes.
"What did you do, Angel?" I asked.
"I…I kind of told him that me and kids would move back to New Orleans."
I sat up quickly.
"Why would you do that?" I yelled, waking up all my babies now.
"Edward!" my mom chastised.
"I was scared I was going to lose you. I didn't see another way. I needed you safe. I'm sorry. I did what I thought was best," she said, looking into my eyes.
"How could you ever think that losing you and my children is what was best for me? Skye, I swear, sometimes you just don't think. Just as you couldn't be without me, mon amour, I can't be without you," I said, moving closer to her and calming myself down.
"I'm sorry Edward, don't be angry with me."
"I'm not letting you go. I won't let you leave me," I said, looking at her. "I'm grateful for what Pierre did, but he can't have you or my babies. You belong to me and I belong to you. We can finally move on with our lives and have our happy ever after. I need that with you."
She leaned into me and put her head on my chest.
"I think my dad has given up on the idea. Back there in your office, he seemed resolved with the fact that I needed to be with you," she said, wrapping her arms around my waist.
"Well, we shall soon see," I said as we pulled up to the apartment.
I helped Skye and the other ladies out of the car and into the apartment. I grabbed the twins and Skye grabbed Lisette. We walked up the stairs to our floor. I quickly changed the boys, who were now wide awake, into their pajamas while Skye fed Lisette. I heard the door open and the boys went flying down the stairs.
"Grandpa, Grandpa!" they called out.
Pierre scooped them up and hugged them tightly as he made his way up the stairs with them in his arms.
"Grandpa's missed you guys so much," he said, kissing their heads.
He sat them down and they ran back to their room. He came over to me and extended his hand. I took it, and shook it smiling.
"Edward, congratulations." He smiled back.
"Pierre, thanks for your help. I got all your suggestions from PJ. They were very much appreciated."
"You're welcome," he said, walking toward Skye, who was sitting on the sofa in the loft nursing Elisabeth.
"Honey, how are you doing?" he asked Skye, stroking the baby's blond curls.
"I'm okay. I'm a exhausted mentally, but I'm happy that Eddie's home."
"You used a lot of power today, but you were magnificent if I do say so myself." He smiled.
"Thank you, and thanks for everything daddy. Your plan worked perfectly." She winked.
"What plan?" I asked.
"Figured that out did you?" He smiled at her.
"Yeah, when Eddie told me it was your idea to plea. I knew you set me up." She smirked.
"What plan?" I asked again.
"If I'm right and I think that I am. Then my dad orchestrated that whole fiasco at the arraignment." Her eyes narrowed in his direction and I looked at Pierre.
"Guilty as charged, but it was the only way to get them to hear you out."
"Daddy, you could have just told me," Skye said.
"Your reaction wouldn't have been the same. Your power is only that strong and focused when you're pissed off," he said, eyebrows rising.
He looked at me.
"I'm sorry I had to use you Edward, but it was for the greater good."
"Use me?" I asked.
"Yes, you pleading guilty was the only thing I could think of that would get Skye upset enough to act out and tell her side. I knew she would be pissed off and I knew once she was determined to be heard, she would be. She has a terrible temper you know? And she protects what she loves."
"Yes, I do know that." I smiled crookedly, and looked at my wife.
"So... Wait… you knew about the thing with Damien?" I asked, a little fearful of his answer.
"Yes, she told me after she asked me to help you and I couldn't find you a way out," he sighed. "I didn't want her to have to re-live it, but I thought if she told her story it would explain more of the situation. There isn't a man in existence that wouldn't have done what you did if it had been their wife or daughter that was assaulted. " He smiled.
"I knew the council wouldn't let her speak at the arraignment and it's always better to stop things before they start, if you know what I mean. With you pleading guilty, she had to make them listen, and I knew she would if she thought you were in trouble. I know my Angel. She wouldn't let anyone she loved go down without a fight," he said, winking at her. "I hoped it would get you a reduced sentence, but this is better than I expected."
"Pierre, while I'm grateful for your help, I have to say that was very dangerous. They could have hurt her," I said.
"I don't think you're fully aware of how powerful she really is. They'd have to get to her first, and when she's that mad, she can pretty much stop anyone and anything. It's a type defensive mechanism for her. When she's that scared, her power increases and her mind focuses on one thing, self preservation. Although if that temper of hers flares up she can be a pain in the ass too. You should've seen her when she was a child and got angry," he said, stroking her cheek.
"Anyway, the important thing is that you're home, with my baby girl and grandbabies, where you should be."
I looked at him.
"Do you really mean that Pierre? Because Skye told me about the deal you two had, and I have to tell you that I won't let her go? I need her and my babies with me. They are my life, and nothing else matters to me."
He stood up quickly and looked me dead in the eyes. I stood very still because I couldn't read him. His mind was as blank as his expression. I internally cursed myself for being so forward, but subtle was never my thing. I didn't want to have to hurt Skye's dad because she would never forgive me. We stared each other down and never broke eye contact.
"Daddy..." Skye said starting to stand up. We both held our hand out to stop her but didn't turn away from one another.
He smiled and I relaxed a little.
"You are one stubborn ass kid, Edward. I have to tell you that," he said, shaking his head.
"I'm not a child, Pierre. I'm almost as old as you are," I said, rolling my eyes.
"True Edward, very true. But in my eyes you are. You and I may have occupied this planet for the same amount of time, but we've had very different lives. For decades I've been working, taking care of a family and raising two kids. You've been repeating high school and college. Only in this last decade have you come out of your shell, so to speak. I know that you're a great fighter. I've heard the stories about you and your brothers', but protecting and loving a family will prove to be your biggest challenge yet. You will learn this soon enough," he said, chuckling.
He was right. It was proving to be a big challenge already but I knew the rewards would be great.
"Look Edward, I'm not going to hold Angel to her deal with me. It would only make her miserable and believe it or not, I do want my baby happy. You make her happy."
Skye stood up and kissed his face.
"Thank you, daddy." She smiled.
"Yeah, yeah. Just remember that you already have one strike," he said, looking at me and I nodded once.
"Now on to this beautiful little being. Is she done yet? I'd really like to hold my little princess," he said, motioning to Lisette, who was still attached to Skye's breast.
"Yes, if you want to burp her?"
"I can do that." He smiled and Skye handed him the baby.
He put the baby up to his shoulder and rubbed her back. She cooed and laid her head on his shoulder. He was really good with her.
"Come on boys, let's go downstairs and give mommy and daddy a little space."
He headed down the stairs and the boys followed him. I looked at Skye and she turned toward me. I smiled crookedly. I motioned to her with my head to come to me. She took off in a sprint and jumped into my arms. I caught her around the waist and attacked her mouth. She cupped my face and ran her hands through my hair. Her hips thrust up and I cupped her ass pulling her into my groin. I moaned into her mouth as she sucked on my tongue.
She finally broke the kiss.
"You caught me," she said breathless.
"Always, mon amour, always," I said, as I carried her to the bedroom.
Skye
The room was beautiful. There were roses covering every surface of the room and candles everywhere. I looked at Edward.
"I wanted things to be perfect," he said.
"It's beautiful." I smiled.
"Angelique, do you still want me to..." I covered his lips with my hand.
"No, I don't. I want to wait," I said and he let out a sigh.
"Good, because I really don't want to change you yet."
"You just want more babies." I grinned and he smiled.
"True."
"One...maybe two more, but not for awhile." I smiled and he nodded.
"You know, we really need to figure out a method of birth control for you. You do realize that you and I could make babies for decades and decades. We need to pace ourselves." He smiled kissing my neck.
"Yeah you and Carlisle should get to work on that. In the meantime, I'd really hate to see this room go to waste." I winked.
Edward stood me up and stripped my dress from my body. He lay me on the bed then took my panties by the waist. He pulled them slowly over my hips. I lifted my ass off the bed and watched him as he concentrated on the black lace sliding over my thighs. I lifted my legs in the air so he could pull them over my feet. He grabbed my legs by the ankles and dropped my panties to the floor.
"I love you, Angelique," he said, licking my ankle then dragging his cool tongue up my calf. He licked the soft flesh behind my knees and I giggled.
"That tickles." I smiled.
"Umm hum." Was all he said.
He continued up my thigh with his tongue until he reached the crevice between my groin and hip. He sucked roughly here for a minute then moved up to my stomach. His tongue dipped into my belly button, kissing it slowly. I felt his hands travel up my thighs, over my hips and around my back to unlatch my bra. I lifted my arms and he pulled the bra off quickly taking my breast into his mouth.
He sucked long and slow enjoying me. His tongue flickering lightly over my nipples as he sucked. I arched my back in response.
"Humm… Edward…make love to me." I pleaded.
He backed up slightly and took his clothes off quickly. He crouched over me and took my right thigh into his big hand. He gave it a slight squeeze and wrapped my leg around his waist as he suckled on my neck. I felt his massive erection brush against my thigh. I lifted my hips off the bed and started pushing him into me. His lips released my neck and I took in a deep breath. I knew the venom changed, healed and improved everything, but I still couldn't believe he was only 17, because damn it... Edward was all man, and a well endowed one at that.
"God damn it!" he moaned, pushing into me softly, allowing himself, and me to adjust to the overwhelming feeling of being joined together.
"Pussy's…so…good..." he murmured in a low hiss.
"Is it now?" I teased moving my hips against his.
He lifted his head and looked in my eyes.
"You know this pussy of yours is magical." He teased lifting my other leg. He slipped his hands between my ass and the bed taking a cheek in each one.
I smirked.
"You knew the first night we made love that you had me under your spell." He winked.
I knew I had Edward way before that, because he had me. He had me the night he followed me from Sid's and asked me my name.
"Are you under my spell lover?" I asked, opening my legs wider and planting my feet firmly on the bed.
He sunk deeper into my wetness. His eyes closed and palmed my ass roughly.
"Yes Angelique, and there's no other place I'd rather be," he hissed, burying his face in my neck as he thrust into me balls deep.
"Umm… Edward… I think that goes both ways." I admitted pushing back against him.
Over and over he rotated and pumped his cool hardness into my hot, soft wetness. The combination was erotic and sensual, further proving that we were made for each other. I dug my nails into his back causing him to growl. He pushed harder and faster now, using his hold on my ass to pull me into him and solicit my movements. I whimpered loudly to each of his grunts and tears began to fall. He licked them from my jaw line.
"You okay baby?" He thought stroking my sweat plastered hair off my forehead.
"Yes Edward…better than okay...you…you just feel so good." I praised.
You know it's good when a man can bring tears to your eyes.
"So do you baby..." he moaned into my ear. "Let me show you how good I can make you feel."
He took my hands in his and pinned me to the bed gently. With almost vampiric speed, he pumped me into the soft mattress.
"Edward… huhhh!" I cried out as my chest heaved toward him.
He had never done this before. He was always so careful, afraid he may hurt me. I thought I died and went to heaven as he brought me quickly toward my release. My body became tense and every muscle seemed to tighten and warm up.
"That's it love... cum for me. Let me see you blush..." he whispered into my neck. Those words with that voice were my undoing. I exploded screaming his name and soaking the sheets.
I begged for more and he didn't stop. He continued making love to me, bringing me and himself over that edge continuously. When I was too tired to move he eased up and palmed my breast twisting my nipple between his fingertips.
"Oh my god… don't you ever hold out on me again!" I said breathless, as he played with my breast and sucked on my neck.
He looked up laughing, making his cock twitch inside me.
"Had enough or are you going to keep begging me for more beautiful?" he asked, running his hand up my body to the side of my neck.
"You know, whatever you want it's yours." He kissed my ear. "I'll give it to you however you want it, Angelique," he whispered, turning my head so he could lick the sweat from my neck.
God... just his voice could make me cream, but him licking my neck and talking shit to me was heaven.
"So tell me mon amour..." he whispered, sucking my chin.
"Do you want more?" He thrust and I gasped. "Do you need more?" He thrust again and I moaned.
He didn't play fair. I was going to be so sore tomorrow but it was so worth it. I managed to pull myself together.
"Yes Edward… I want... I need...more..." I moaned.
I felt his lips curl into a smile on my throat.
"Like I said before… insatiable." He chuckled, moving his hands to my hands pinning them above my head as he picked his pace back up.
Edward
I showered while Skye slept. I knew it was a combination of the day's events that had her so tired, but I wore that ass out tonight. I couldn't get enough of her. I smiled. Even with her quick healing she'd remember tonight for a couple of days. I'd have to give a nice massage tomorrow.
I put on a pair of jogging pants and went to the window. I looked out over the city. The moonlight reflected off the pale skin of my chest. I took in a deep breath and let it back out.
Skye tossed and I turned to make sure she wasn't awake. I gazed on her naked form tangled in the white sheets. Her skin looked much darker next to the bright white of the sheets. I watched her beautiful breasts rise and fall with each breath. My heart around her neck twinkled in light shining from the half open bathroom door. My eyes traveled over her hips and down her legs to her perfectly painted toes. I was so in love with this woman. I couldn't believe I almost lost her.
I ran over the day's events in my head and placed my forehead on the cool glass of the window. I closed my eyes. I must have had an angel on my shoulder today. Things could've gone really bad. I sighed. I'm was never going to take another moment with my family for granted, never. I wanted a long, boring, normal life with Skye and our children.
I felt warm hands rub my stomach and hot kisses on my back breaking me from my thoughts. I took Skye's hands and kissed them before twining our fingers together.
"Up already?" I asked her. She had only slept a little over an hour or so.
"I just needed a cat nap. I'll sleep after our guests leave or settle in for the night," she said.
"Edward?"
"Oui mon amour."
"I want long, boring and normal with you too," she said.
I smiled and turned to face her. I pulled her face up and bent over to kiss her mouth.
"Good... because that's what you're going to get. Go on and take your shower. Then come join us downstairs."
She nodded.
"Love you, Edward."
"I love you, Angelique." I smiled, running my nose down her neck. My scent was all over her.
About half an hour later Skye made her way down the stairs. She had on one of my wife beaters that was too tight around her breasts and a pair of yoga pants that made her ass look delicious. When she walked by me with her plate of food I pulled her into my lap. I put my nose in her wet curls as she ate. Coconut shampoo and my scent filled my nose. Guess she couldn't wash me away completely after all that.
"Baby, you smell so good." I teased.
She turned around and smiled, giving me a small peck on the lips. We made small talk while she, Jake, the twins and her family ate a late dinner.
"So, what the hell was that at the council meeting?" PJ asked her. "I thought you were going to start pulling limbs off and burning folks."
"Hold on... you can do that with your brain?" Em asked.
Skye looked at the floor.
"Well, I don't think I could pull your limbs off your body..." she said, looking at PJ shaking her head. "I'm no where near that strong yet. But I can move things with my mind, so if I wanted to move your arms and legs, they would move, trust me," she said, taking a bite of the chicken on her plate.
"Yet!" Em and Jazz said together.
"Well, we're not sure how Skye's power will change once she's changed. It may not change at all or she could be really powerful," I said.
"Damn, can you imagine…" Jazz said.
"I can only imagine. Look at what the venom did to us and we were regular humans," I said.
"Thank you Eddie for pointing out how much of a freak I am," she said, slapping my chest.
"Skye, you're wonderful. I'm merely stating facts. Look at how much the change has affected PJ," I said.
Ever since PJ had been changed his psychic power had increased ten fold. He no longer needed direct skin contact and he was becoming some sort of weird crystal ball. He could see hybrids just as clear as he could see vamps and humans. He had the potential to be a very powerful seer.
He could see a person's past so that made it easier for him to decipher their futures. Humans could be very predictable, vamps and hybrids not so much. Alice was working with him even though his power was beyond hers. This kind of sight was still new to him and he was still learning how to use it and Alice could help him with that.
I was surprised that neither he nor Alice saw Skye's tirade coming but I think that's why her dad did things the way he did. The element of surprise had to be genuine, and it was. I think we were all shocked to see the level of power Skye possessed. She never really used it, even avoided it if she could at all help it.
Carlisle came walking through the door with a few thermoses and Esme pulled out some crystal champagne flutes and two plastic cups for the boys. Carlisle filled them with the blood and passed them around.
"Edward, son, would you like to say something?" Carlisle asked.
"Sure," I said, raising my glass and keeping Skye very close to my body.
"Here's to good friends, thank you all for coming to support me..." I said, looking around at my 'vegetarian' cousins, "...a great family, you all know how much I love you…" I continued, looking at my family and Skye's, "…and to my beautiful wife. Who bore her soul to save my ass. I love you mon amour and I can't wait to live out our existences together, forever." I finished, kissing the back of her neck.
"Salude!" We said together.
