Chapter 37

"...Well we kind of already did"

The agent had a surprised look on her face. Her face was appealing, she had hazel eyes. Her long sandy brown hair went down to the middle of her back, it was combed back and braided into a long tail almost like Donovans. The tight uniform she had on complimented her body well. Her outfit was full on for stealth purpsoses. She was suited in a one piece overall that zipped in the middle down to her waistline. She left the suit unzipped at her breast that revealed a little cleavage. Each of her arms were wrapped with a strap that held capsules. My guess were for tactical reasons. Around her hips was a utility belt and on the left side was a 9 milimeter. She had two knives at each thigh that were at least twelve inches long.

"How'd you know?" the girl in black asked.

"You thought I'd be ignorant. Insulted my intelligence from the start. You targeted me that night on my walk with that fuckin' chip. I went home that night and did my research, used your fingerprints. I know everything about you. You had those men ambush my home. Take my girl, my father, my mother, my work!"

My voice grew louder and louder. My morphonite grew a mind of its own and then illuminated my visor into a scintillating blue. If I would've been less in control of myself, Asha would've been completely incinerated.

Asha's face grew an expression of fear. She looked across my body to see my blue aura emitting from around me.

"I-I apologize-"

"I destroyed that entire place, but I'm sure you know that" I said with a grimace. I slowly began taking steps toward the agent. My visors blue light had dimmed showing I had cooled down at the moment.

Asha slowly reached down to grip the gun at her waist.

"So you're...going to kill me also?" The agent asked, frightened.

I lunged forward and yelled.
"Why shouldnt I?!"

Asha quickly readied her gun and opened fire.

The bullets turned into dust the second they made contact with the fiery blue aura that surrounded me.

I grabbed Asha by the throat and slammed her to the ground. With my other hand, I grabbed her gun.

She gasped for air. Her hands clung to mine, attempting to break my grip. She tried kicking me off of her but to no avail.

I opened my visor and on my right shoulder, I created a flame torch and slowly fixed its flames towards her.

"Please..!" she said between breaths, "I'm sorry!...I mean it!"

"If you cherish your life..give me a reason why I shouldnt kill you" I said, tightening my grip around her neck.

Asha's face turned a bright red. Her oxygen intake was shortening. She squirmed and kicked harder in her fight for air. I brung the torch closer to her face.

"THE EVIDENCE!" she yelled. Her voice portrayed her pain.

"What about it?! I destroyed it all!" I yelled but at the same time I loosened my grip a little.

"I-I have video information on you..." she gasped, "That I haven't sent back to the CIA!"

I studied her face. She was telling the truth.

"Show it to me" I took my hand from her neck and retracted the torch back into my suit. I stood to my feet.

Asha slowly sat up clutching her neck. She coughed and gasped for air. As she did, she took a drive from out of a pouch on her belt and tossed it at my feet. I picked it up and examined it a bit before I absorbed it into my hand. My eyes focused back on the woman in front of me.

"I'll let you live...It's not like me to kill women. Let us meet again, & I won't hesitate to"

I walked past her as she came to her feet. I prepared to take off.

"Wait!" I heard from behind.

I turned back to her.

"The C.I.A will wonder why I haven't done my job. What should I tell them?"

"Thats not my problem" I gave her a look of disgust from what she had just asked me.

"Since you don't kill females...why shouldn't I just tell them you're here?"

Is she serious? Was the first thought that came to mind.

I came up with an alternative.

"You must be really stupid. How about this. I tell them your two years going M.I.A were you joining another agency, a Russian agency. That bullshit about you being kidnapped and held in Moscow for ransom? The cover up. After that, I find you and have Morrigan end your life before the C.I.A does...No one will know- nor care"

Asha didnt have a response. She knew I had her in checkmate.

"Oh, and you can try to kill me instead, but since you believe you know me, I'll prove to you that you don't" I kicked her gun to her. "I'm immortal...and so is she"

She picked up the firearm and placed it back at her waist.

"You're lying, you're as human as I am"

She must've not seen my aura

"Asha, don't play yourself. You're an agent. You'd know if I were lying to you"

"Fuck you, you dont know me" she said pissed.

"You're 23, Aesha Nomentov is your real name. You're born in Czechoslovia, lost both of your parents at five. You're a dangerous lone wolf and possess superhuman genes thanks to the genetic engineering abilities that your mother gifted you with before she got laid out. I think I know enough" I said with a fake smile.

She gave a devilish smirk.

"You're highly intelligent for a 17 year old"

I hit her with blank look.

"Anyway, let's not meet again" I closed my visor and took off.

^V^

I deactivated the morphonite a second before I hit my backyard doorstep. I opened the door to have the aroma of cooked foods attack my nostrils.

'Yep, the girls are still here'

I walked into the front room to see the girls relaxing on the sofas talking and watching television. Morrigan was chatting with Rochella until she felt my presence & looked over her shoulder.

"Hi" she said with a smile.

"Hey, how's everything?"

"Everything's fine" Morrigan arose from the love seat and approached me with a hug, "What took so long? I felt your soul spark not too long ago" Morrigan said.
Her face showed nothing more than concern. Thats when the girls conversations died down.

"Come into the kitchen" I glanced at the other girls to see them eyeing us.

Morrigan sat on the counter as I leaned against the fridge.

"On the way here, I had an encounter with this agent woman, she was watching you and the girls from a hill, I had embraced my bad emotions to the fact that she was the one that had revealed our location to have those men come here. I was ready to kill her. Instead, I got the info she had on us and had chose to let her be"

"You let her live?" Morrigan asked with an eyebrow raised.

I looked at her.

"I'm not a killer..."

Morrigan tilted her head at me indicating other wise.

"...Of women" I finished.

"Her name?"

"She goes by Asha, though it's Aesha Nomentov, she's 24 and works for the C.I.A and a Russian agency"

"I can dispose of her if you'd like" Morrigan said happily with a smirk.

"I know, we'll see. Right now though, I'm trying to head back to your side"

"Are you?" Morrigan asked surprised.

"Yeah"

I walked in front of her and placed my hands at her sides. I lied my forehead against hers.

"Once we get there, guess what we're gonna do?" I asked.

Morrigans eyes flashed a violet color and returned to green.

"What?", she asked.

"Talk about what's been on your mind" I said in a serious tone.

Morrigan sighed. "I guess...But what about after?" Morrigan said gazing at my face. Her soft hand rubbed my cheek.

"I'll be all yours" I smiled.

"Brilliant", she replied with a wide smile.

"But I'll always be yours" I said.

"So sweet", she then pressed her lips against mine.

"I'm yours as well" she replied softly.

^V^

The house had grew dark now that night had crept in. The girls and I had watched Iron Man three in my front room while they were here. Morrigan and I were reclined on my couch. She lied her back against my chest and sat criss crossed in my lap. As for the movie, I was for some reason, really able to connect to it. Except that this orange haired woman died damn near at the end. It made me hold Morrigan closer. I was sure Morrigan knew why I did, for she held my hands tighter.

After the final few minutes, the movie had ended and the girls were preparing to leave out. As they gathered their things, Rochella asked:

"Are you two heading to the Makai soon?"

I looked over at Morrigan who had sat up to stetch.

She yawned and glanced at me before answering Rochella.

"We'll be going tomorrow. I wanted to tonight but my, I've gotten quite comfortable"

"So have I, I'm aching to count sheep. Well, we'll be available if you need our company tomorrow" Rochella stated as she and the girls grouped at the door.

"Alright, have a goodnight loves" Morrigan said. She got up to lock the door behind the ladies.

"Have a goodnight, Rochella, Akena, Nina, Julia and Amy" I said to the girls as they headed out.

They waved and said their goodbyes and goodnights. Morrigan closed and locked the door. She came back to the couch and sat on my lap, this time facing me.

"Soo, did you enjoy the movie?" Morrigan asked.

"It was nice, the ending was intense though. I might make my own little family of suits one day" I smirked.

Morrigan gave a slight smile.
"I've been thinking of making a family one day as well"

I smiled. "Madam Morrigan to mommy Morrigan huh?"

Morrigan giggled.

"Right? And also babe... I want to talk on whats been biting at me"

I raised my eyebrows in surprise to the sudden change of convo.

"Father isn't it?" I asked.

I could feel Morrigans energy decrease a bit.

"I knew you've figured by now that he's..." Morrigan started.

"Aging?" I added.

"Yes, that. He's growing very old and I can't imagine what it'll be like without him there. Then I have Demitri who feels he can use that as his chance to strike. He'll be in for a huge surprise, I vow he won't have a peaceful death"
The sound of Morrigans voice turned a bit darker.

I then ran a hand through Morrigans hair. I then reached and held her hands as well.

"I'll handle Demitri. Father, I know he won't always be... but things will be fine"

"Possibly, I get pretty riled up about my Father. He's been there for me since I can remember and now..." Morrigans voice trailed off. Her eyes had a sparkle in them. Thats when I saw a ball of water stream down her cheek.

I thought she was going to break down and collapse into my arms but instead, she wiped away the droplet with her index finger and smiled.

"My, I've never known myself to cry since I was a baby" Morrigan let out a soft laugh.

"Its okay, thats perfectly normal bae" I said back with a smile. I stroked her cheek.

"Not for me" she giggled. "But yeah...everything has an end and I accept that" She wiped her cheeks with the back of her fingers.

I smiled but kept a serious tone of voice. "Thats true, but until then, we all have each other, and no one is gonna come in between that. Know that I'm here for you when no one else will be. You can count on it"

Morrigan gave me a smirk and then released my hands to clutch my shirt. She rested her head onto my chest.

"I'm so happy I met you..."

I was taken back by her statement. When we first met she had thought of killing me, now shes lying in my arms. Its funny how things changed for the better. Thinking of our first encounter almost made me forget what she had told me. I think nows too late to make a response but oh well.

"So am I babe"
I looked down to see her body still, only rising and lowering.
I gazed at her resting body lying on my pecs and all I could think of was how this all started.

I chuckled to myself. I was lying hard as fuck telling Cain I didnt dig her that day. I knew I did, I honestly didnt think she'd dig me first though. I totally didnt expect to get in the situation I'm in now. But I couldnt have it any other way.
After all...I'm me.
