Eternity

Three

"Have your interns" John asks me as we are on our way to the Seattle Continental, we're going there because the manager of this place will know where to find Iosef but also killing and fighting on Continental grounds is a big no. So if a contract is made for John or I, we will stay here. Maze will be meeting us here, we picked up the kids who are still very tired "been permanently scarred?"

A deep chuckle escapes my lips "Not yet, but they will be" John shakes his head smiling, when we arrive I get the kids as he grabs our bags. CeCe sleeps in my arms as Talon looks at the hotel. Talon knows his dad and I are going to make Iosef pay and CeCe thinks she's going to spend time with Auntie Maze and grandma. Dad will be visiting too since it's his grandkids and he wants to see them.

People look our way as we walk towards the front desk, this one woman who looks like a scary model briefly looked at us. She has long black hair, blue eyes and ivory skin "Room nine eighteen" the concierge tells her "Do enjoy your stay"

"Thanks" she nods her head looking to us "John" looking at the kids "cute family" I do not like the way she's looking at the kids and I, nor the way she's looking at my husband.

"Perkins" John greets

She nods her head "Good seeing you again John"

The man with dark skin, dark eyes with glasses and no hair in a business suit asks John "I have you and your family for two nights?"

"Depending on business it may be more" John nodded his head "though my wife's aunt should be by to pick the kids up later today, so it'll be just my wife and I"

"Of course sir" he nods his head, looking at me "you must be his lovely wife Ruby Juliet"

"RJ" correcting him

"So when did the old place" John asks him "get a face lift?"

"Around four years ago, but I assure you sir she really hasn't changed much" he smiles at John "adorable children you have and lovely wife"

He nods his head "Thank you"

"Same owner?" I ask

He nods his head "Same owner"

John pays with a gold coin, the man taking it tells us our room "Room eight eighteen" were right under that Perkins "and as always, it is a pleasure having you with us again Mr. Wick"

Heading up to our room, the kids are eating McDonald's as John holds me in his lap. My head on his chest while his hand is on my belly "How far?" John asks me

"About four weeks" my phone buzzes, there's a text I get from Maze "Kids?" They look my way as I stood up "Auntie Maze is here"

"Really?!" They get all excited as I open the door to Maze, she's the greatest demon to ever live. She has long black hair, olive tan skin and black eyes. She wears tight clothes all the time "Aunt Maze"

"Hey hellions" closing the door, she hugs them both "John"

"Mazikeen" he greets

"I wish this was under better circumstances" she stands up holding CeCe in her arms "I'll keep them safe" we nodded our heads.

Once the kids are gone, I smile to John "No distractions at the moment"

Smoothing out my hair, as John zipped up his pants. The elevator brings us down to the kitchen floor. Why we're going down there? It's the entrance to this secret bar that only golden club members know "I swear, if you weren't" making sure my tits aren't about to fall out "a fit assassin who looks ten years younger than he should be, you would have passed out"

He wraps his arm around my waist "If I'm not physically fit, how can I keep my nyphomaniac wife satisfied?"

"First off" putting up one finger as we leave the elevator "I'm called a hypersexuality female"

"Excuse me doctor" he jokes as we pass by people "but that wasn't a denial"

"Next nyphomaniacs" adding to why I'm partially not that "is someone who is sexually attracted to everyone and wants to fuck everyone" looking up at him "I only want you"

"And when I die?" He asks

"I'd rather not think about that when the time comes" I say, getting to the door I put two gold coins in. The small slider door opens looking between me and John before opening the door.

We enter the club, it's very jazz like. Like a modern time jazz night club. Vintage. John's hold on me tightened a bit as we go through the club passing by the lounge singer and band, passing by that Perkins who raises her drink to us and to the back where there is a man in his late seventies if I had to guess maybe eighties? Well he's in a red booth by himself with a martini.

"Hello Winston" John greets

He looks up at us, Winston has short black hair, aging sand colored skin that is beginning to sag and glasses before his grey eyes. He's in a suit, the dress code around here is very formal "Jonathan" he takes off his glasses smiling, looking to me "and you must be the new wife. RJ Morningstar"  Sitting down, I sit on John's lap "quite a beautiful woman you are. I don't know how John manages to capture such alluring women"

Looking down at my husband "By being himself"

"I hear you have children now" looking at John and me "should we expect another generation of boogeymen to run around or..."

"Given how my wife likes to teach them" John looks at me "to kill, I wouldn't be surprised"

"A little boy and girl" he asks us "talented like their father and beautiful like their mother I'm guessing?"

"Won't know" I say "until they are adults but they are naturals"

He nods his head "I wouldn't be surprised..." looking at John "now as I recall weren't you the one tasked to dole out the beatings, not receive them?"

"A bit rusty" he says

"To what do we owe the pleasure?" He asks

"Iosef Tarasov" he looks at me "we want to know where he is"

"Why?" He asks

"We'd like to talk with him" John makes it clear having Winston not look that shocked, I guess what Iosef did has been told all around.

"John may" he looks at me "prefer an instant killing, but I like to drag things out. Make statements"

"It was heard" he looks between us "how Viggo Tarasov was sent a very...unusual present" yes, he was sent the dead bodies. There was a message from them, I had them cut up and spread out under the Message in blood and guts. Their insides were mushed up together to spell out 'Iosef Tarasov will pay' on the wall and as I said, their bodies underneath them cut up.

"My wife's idea" John looks at me

He sips his drink "I'm familiar with the parlance, Jonathan. I want to ask you both this: Have you John returned to the fold?"

"Just visiting" John answers

"Have you thought this through? Chewed it down to the bone?" He asks "everyone has heard of the Morningstar vengeance from the many Lucifer's over the centuries, so when word reaches them about the husband wife duo do you think you'll be let go so easily? You got out once. You dip so much as a pinky back into this pond, you may well find something reached out to pull you completely back in and drags your wife and children in with you"
