That's What Little Girls Are Made Of...
Chapter One Forty-Six
EPOV
When I heard someone yell, "Federal Agents, nobody move!" my hands instantly flew in the air.
"Who the fuck called the feds?" I stage-whispered to Emmett.
"Fuck if I know," he shrugged. "As far as I knew, no one but us knew we were going to be here. Of course, I didn't plan on your badass aunt killing Eleazar either."
"She's not my fucking aunt!" I grumbled.
"Whatever, Dude, I still think she's badass."
"Thelma and Louise, if you two, ladies, are done gossiping," Jasper deadpanned, "I'm going to try and talk to the agents I had my father call."
"Jasper Whitlock, you in here?" A bright light flashed, momentarily blinding us all. Thank God, I had Bella hidden behind me.
"Over here, Agent Romanov." Jasper responded, shielding his eyes from the harshness of the flashlight.
"We got your message, Son, mind telling me what the hell is going on here?" Looking at me, he glared. "Cullen, what the hell have you done? I told you to stay out of it, that I would get your parents out safely!"
"I...I..." Running a hand through my hair, I was at a loss of words. "I fucked up, but I'm not sorry that came here. Look at them," I incline my head in the direction of my parents huddled in the corner, "I have my family back. Sorry if I stepped a few toes, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat if it resulted in the same outcome."
"Fucking civilians," Grumbled Romano while pacing back and forth.
"Sir," one of the officers called, getting Dimitri's attention. "We've got a body."
And right on cue, "Please! Help me! My father… He's been shot! And the award for best fake ass cry in a movie goes too...
"Oh hell no, I'm taking the heat on this. It was her," I say, pointing in Maggie's direction. "Margaret Cullen shot her father! Check the gun, her fingerprints are all over it." I fucking sang like a canary and the agents swarmed around her ready to strike.
"Edward Anthony Masen Platt Cullen!" Esme growled, stepping in front of Maggie protectively. "Maggie shot Eleazar out of self-defense!"
"No she didn't!" yelled skank number two, Tanya.
"Y-yes I did," Maggie stuttered. "My brother and sister-in-law have been to hell and back at the hands of my evil father, and I couldn't let him hurt them any further." Pointing in the direction of Eleazar's corpse, Maggie confessed. "I didn't mean to kill him, but when I saw him reach for the gun, I panicked."
The gun, I thought, looking perplexed.
"What gun, Ms. Cullen?"
"The one strapped under his desk," Maggie said, pointing toward the middle of Eleazar's desk.
Sure enough, Marcus, who had been all but invisible up until this point, snapped on a pair of rubber gloves and pulled out a big ass 9mm glock from under the desk. "What the fuck?" Esme eyed me, and I shrank back from her silent wrath.
I still don't fucking trust her, but right about now I was truly grateful for Maggie being such a good shot. "Goddamnit, can anybody tell me the truth about what the hell's going on here?"
"I can." Maggie.
Reaching in her pocket she pulls out a drive. "This is everything you need to arrest these three. Alec has been one of my father's henchmen for year; the body count is massive. Supulcia has not only been falsifying documents and records, but she also helped my father cover up my mother's murder," glaring in Supulcia's direction, "making her an accessory to murder."
"I did nothing wrong! I was just a kid!" Supulcia claimed.
"No bitch! You were twenty-one, and already fucking that bastard over there, which makes you a legal adult and accountable for your own actions"
"And how could we forget this two-timing slut, Tanya Denali. Not only has she been sleeping with my father for years, she was the one who orchestrated Carlisle and Esme's kidnapping." Looking at Tanya, Maggie smiled triumphantly as she said, "Es and Carl were never on the plane. Tanya's brother James kidnapped them from the airport."
Placing a hand on his hip, Agent Romanov, shook his head. "Good God, if what you say is true, neither one of you will ever see the light of day again."
"Oh it's definitely true," Maggie confirmed. "I've got taped phone conversations, bank statements, video surveillance, original documents, and much, much more. I've been building concrete evidence against my father for years."
"Well, Agents," Esme cut in, "if you don't mind, we'd like go home and put this whole ordeal behind us. In a week or so, you are more than welcome to contact us about any loose ends, or witness statements that you may need."
You tell them Esme!
I know I'm sure as hell ready to get the fuck out of here!
"I'm sorry, Ma'am, but…"
Esme held up her hand, effectively cutting Romanov off. "I wasn't asking you, Sir. With all due respect, my husband and I have been away from our home and our children for almost two years," holding up the corresponding fingers for emphasis, "and I am not asking your permission. My family, my sister-in-law included need time to reconnect and you will give that to us. It's the least you can do. Emmett, get me home." She all but demanded as she headed for Eleazar's front door.
Hey, she didn't have to tell me twice!
Once outside, Esme paused before climbing into the SUV. "And Edward, we will be having a little talk about the way you treated your Aunt Maggie back there."
Oh shit...
I'm in trouble now…
I don't know about you guys, but i do not want to be on the other end of Moma Mee's wrath. Let me know what you guys think! Thanks for reading and reviewing.
Later Peeps!
