Chapter 42

The door swings open slowly as a young lady not more than in her early twenties dressed in a nurse's garb. "Do you have an appointment or are you in imminent need?"

I smile at her we look human in our glamor "We are stopping by as we have just arrived from a visit of mutual friends in Italy they wished us to deliver a few messages." We hear a gasp and very low whispers I look past the girl to see my old friend and his wife step into the room staying in the shadows staying out of the sunlight streaming through the open door.

"Erin invite them in we will greet them in the back parlor." With that they disappeared from the room the human not noticing the blurred movements of her boss and wife.

As she shows us into a large room with defused sunlight lighting the 12 foot ceiling bouncing off the eggshell paint, It dims the light enough so we don't sparkle. "Thankyou Erin that will be all for today please put up the sing and head home I will be seeing no one else today."

"Very good Dr. Cullen, Mrs. Cullen, have a lovely night I will see you tomorrow."

"Please come in and take your rest." Esme always the graces host moves to Lil's side taking her arm. Her eyes only giving her away as she feels Lil's diamond hard skin after seeing us in the direct light.

Carlisle extends his hand to me "you have us at a disadvantage you know who I am but I have never had the pleaser. How long have you known Aro?" he feels my grip and soon has used a considerable amount of force enough to crush a humans hand.

I smile "I met Aro when he was only 100 years in this life." I see the surprise in his eyes and his great analytical mind that I remember so well puts some of the pieces together. He had lived with the Volturi for 60 years talking with many immortals he was an amiable man making friends everywhere he went.

"Thanatos" he whispers I almost miss it and I am standing right in front of him.

I smile "I prefer Mac. I have some story to tell you my old friend!" we move to sit and a thousand questions are in his eyes. "Ask my fiend you are the only one other than my family that is entitled to my complete life's story."

Esme looks to her Mate unsure what is going on I nod to my family and the glamor melts away reveling our gold eyes and shining skin. "Oh my" she exclaims as Lil's brilliant Green eyes turn to gold.

I smile at her "It's good to see you again Esme."

Our host looks at me strangely searching her perfect memory for any hint of me. "Have me met before?"

I smile and Peter laughs "Not on this world but I owe you and your family a debt I can never repay."

I spent hours telling the abridged version of my 3,000+ life on this world and my 17 years on the other. Of how I learned about feeding on animals from the hints I got, knowing of their family and there life in forks. It was almost dawn when Carlisle had to call a stop to our talks sighting the return of his nurse and his appointments for the day.

Esme insisted we stay sighting the large house with her and her mate rattling around in. "Please we want you to stay Carlisle would hunt you down with all the questions flying around in his head."

She spent the day with us as her mate worked to save the humans that came and went. The house had been designed by her with cork walls blocking sound and scents of blood from reaching us.

"I'm afraid I lack the control of my husband when it comes to human blood I still struggle." She pats Lil's hand. "That's what makes your visit nice I can spend time without fighting the pull of human blood. So few of our kind are settled enough to live among humans and the few that visit there stay is always brief."

Kat smiles "I keep a small tribe of decedent's safe, I spend quite a bit of time with them when we are home."

Esme looks confused "Dose that not expose you to them, breaking the law?"

I smile at her "Aro and I have an understanding. I make the rules in North America, our coven was a founding member of the six though 2 are no more we still have a large voice and in my land the last decision.

She looks at our eyes, "Carlisle has told me stories of the golden eye clan and the power they wield things he herd as he moved through the world." She smiles at Lil "how many embrace this life style?"

Lil tells of our brother's clan in the north all told 12 animal drinkers walk the earth that we know of.

We spend a few weeks in their home before Carlisle can break away to visit their home in the Berkshire's in the foot hills of what will become the Appellation Trail. We leave in the dead of night 7 immortals running in the moon light to the remote cabin. Carlisle has sent the word out any immortal within a thousand miles is expected to come. I was going to inform them that the rules are still in effect on this side of the pond.

17 red eyes showed up including my old friends Torrin and Serris. Most looked on with disgust at the freaks with the strange eyes, "Who are you to tells us how we should live away from the Volturi scum?" A big Viking yelled at me with a sneer.

Torrin looks at the big mouth, "I would sit down and shut up if I where you Erick."

"Your coven is dead you no longer rule and I will do as I please in this new land." There were many nodding their heads in agreement. "I will not bow down to them I make my own rules."

I had stayed quit through all this Torrin shakes his head "you are a child playing with fire and Hades is listening to you right now."

I stand up looking at the huge man, my god he is almost 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide at the shoulders. "Are you done?" I ask looking in his eyes.

"Little boy I will chew you up and spit you out."

Kat stands up looking at me hopefully I nod and she moves forward. "You could not take me never mind my coven leader." With that he moves to strike Kat away like an annoying fly. Serris laughs as Kat move away from the blow. "BIG MISTAKE" Serris says, "HUGE MISTAKE" her mate replies. Kat plays with him not striking but moving out of the way of his blows. As he gets more pissed off he looks at the other golden eyes and move toward Kelly. She was never in any danger but Esme stepped in front of her and let out a great roar. He faltered for a second and Kat was on him he was in 6 pieces on the ground before her roar stopped. Most looked on in growing horror as the pieces hit the ground, Some understanding who was standing in front of them, the whispers letting the rest know the days of doing as they please were over.

I look down on his parts "I'll get back to you." Then look at the 16 remaining red eyes. "Yes I'm him, the one you all heard about, and you have come to my land without an invitation with the exception of Torrin and his mate Sessis."

One pipes up "I was born here, was changed here, this is my home."

I nod my head "your name?"

"John Parter your honor."

I look at the group "How many have been changed here?"

6 put up their hands including Esme.

I nod asking how long they have been immortal and if they knew their makers. Two were only 6-7 years old and had never seen the one who turned them after waking from the burning. The rest were older 20 30 50 years in this life told the rules and mostly respected them. I made a note to talk to the two in privet then got back to it.

"Well John like my daughter and my self being born her makes a difference with me, you get a pass on the invitation part of this but don't think what I'm about to tell the others does not apply to you." I look around at all of them including the two Cullens. "My rules are a little more forgiving that Aro's but make no mistake I will move swiftly and without mercy to turn you into ash if you break these rules!"

"1. Keep the secret. A human sees you, you end them or turn them. You turn them you are responsible for them for 10 years they break my rules you pay with them. I will listen if I feel you did everything you could to stop the newborn I will let it slide but both will never have another chance with me.

2. Never turn anyone under 12 years. I will end you nothing you say or do will stop me and I will make it hurt, your head will never be burned, and I will find the deepest darkest hole to through it into.

3. Lastly I have more gifts than you will ever know and I will use them all if you ever come after me or mine. If you have any questions about who that is look into the eyes if they are gold don't fuck with them."

I look down at asshole Kat picks up the head and tosses it to me. I use Aro's gift, oh this guy is a piece of work, well he is good for one thing, an example. I look at the rest of them "this might look arbitrary and unfair but I have seen what he has done. What he wishes to do. I am not letting him go so I can chase him down." With that I use Anubus's power and his head turns to dust. Kat tosses a match she has made on the pile of parts and woosh we have a smoldering pile of ash in 4 minutes. The rest rattle around looking scared for the first time in a long time.

"Let's talk about coming here without an invitation." I listen to each person, granting permission to stay; only one French man by the name of Maurice gave me pause. I held out my hand and he knew I was like Aro he looked down and licked his lips.

"I have not lived the most angelic life moneme. I fear you may see things which at the time seemed funny or fun to me but on reflection I see they went too far."

My hand never moved and with a sis he placed his palm on mine. Off color was putting it mildly. I wish I could bleach my brain, but the problem is he has been doing passable for the last 200 years. I would never call him a friend, did not wish to have him in my home, but…

I look him in the eye "One fuck up little or small you understand?"

He nods "you will never hear a peep from me Lord Death."

It had taken 3 days to get through all this we pulled everyone together. "You know the rules I expect you to follow them you fight for territory you keep it out of human sight. Willum your coven is based out of Boston?"

He nods "Yes my Lord."

"You are to let any immortals that enter my lands know I will eventually run into them make sure you tell them my rules. For this I give you the state of Massachusetts all human hunting rights are yours." Most are from the old world and understand the gifting of land. "The rights to hunt anywhere for animals are the golden eyed ones and may not be interfered with. I expect you to get along with the Cullen clan."

He bows his head "Thank you Lord Death."

We all know you may hunt while passing through but if you are a red eye you must ask him to stay inside his lands. In effect I have put him on par with Torrin and Orrif's coven. A few look on with envy most may never get their own group of humans.

With that most leave with the exception of the two new born and Willum and his mate he has agreed to help the young ones till there 10 year at that point he will consider letting them join his coven. I read their thoughts and although they were human I had a clear pitcher of the immortal who turned them and didn't show up here. All told there were 8 that blue off my little meet and greet.

I look at the two girls. "You do know what a great honor Willum is doing for you?"

Carlisle had pulled them aside and made them aware of their situation if they didn't have someone to vouch for them I would most likely end them. He had made it clear he would help them but they must change to his diet. They had both thanked him and asked if they may seek out another human drinker first? He helped them network until Arora Willum's mate forced his hand a little.

They both nod and smile at the mated pair "Yes Lord Michael we will be good."

I smile they probably been fine on their own they had most of it figured out, and a few nomad's told them the rules. They had to go home and do a little house cleaning to fix the few humans that saw them. Turning them was out of the question they would take 100's of years to control their blood lust.

They took off with their new coven I had a feeling they would become a permanent part of Willum's coven. I did my trick with Kat and showed her the faces of the one's that ducked our little get to gather. Her and peter were going to round them up starting with that ass hat that was turning and running. I used Demetri's gift and pointed them in the right direction. "Remember Kat bring them back alive I wish to have a word."

She was bouncing in place and Peter had a big shit eating smile on his face. She loves the hunt "no problem dad we can keep all the pieces so you can put them back together." With that they were off.

Lil looks on with a frown "are you sure you should turn her loose with a hutting permit?"

I smile at her as we walk back in, "Keeps me from doing it, besides Kat and Peter have so much fun running them down. You know we have to stop that ass hat before he turns another."

We walk in seeing Kelly and Esme discussing Boston the culture and people.

Lil smile's "ever since she jumped in front of Kelly a bond had formed."

I used Markus's gift day by day I could see the three of them getting closer and closer. "They make a good family" they both heard me and look up smiling at us.

Esme beckons Lil over "Carlisle hopes to have a word with you Mac he is up in his study. Try to remind him we all plan to run and hunt tonight so he can't lock you in all night."

I laugh and give her a wave "as if that would help me, your mate laches on like a bull-dog when he wishes to understand a thing.

didn't expect to see Esme, I always thought it was f###ed up that Edward came first the story would have flowed smoother if she had been there for his first days. all so Kelly may play a larger part in Edwards not hatting himself.
