Amanda's pov

I went to the market with my grandkids. They're running around looking at the toys while I'm checking out. "Good afternoon Miss Ames," the cashier greets me.

"How are you Jack?"

"Good. Have I ever told you you look like my dad's wife? She went missing about 25 years back."

I laughed, "How do you think I am?"

"Well Miss Ames you don't look a day over twenty." He smiled I can feel how red my face had turned.

"Thank you Jack. I'll see next week." I rounded up my grandkids and we started to head home.

I am making dinner the children are playing in the living room. My youngest grandchild Damien entered the kitchen. "Grandma?"

"Yes baby?" I turned around to looking better. He has a speech problem so he speaks slow in order to get it right.

"Someone knocked at the door. And Desmond peed on your floor."

"Okay take your brothers and go upstairs."

I went to the front door once the boys were upstairs. I open the door to see Benjamin standing in my doorway again. Something shifted behind him so I looked behind him. It was two little girls and woman carrying a little boy. Is this why he left me to start a family?

"Amanda may we come in please," his voice was really shaky. And he reeked the blood, I let them in. The woman and children thanked me for letting them stay.

I went to the kitchen finish dinner then put my grandchildren to sleep. The woman with Benjamin stitched him up and put the children to sleep. Benjamin walk into the kitchen while I am cleaning. "Thank you Amanda."

"Why are you here Benjamin and were you bleeding?"

"A Lucifer attacked us in our house, your are placed is the only safe place I know. When was the last time you ate?"

"First of all my well-being is not any of your business. Second of all a Lucifer can track you once they have your blood. Now you have children to take care of. And I have grandkids to take care of, you are leaving in the morning."

"Alright. And I am sorry Amanda." He went back into the living room with his family.

20 minutes later his wife walks into the kitchen. "How do you know Ben? It's pretty obvious that you two know each other. But I've never heard anything about you."

"What do you want? Hmm? Do you want me to say that I slept with Benjamin when we were younger? Because if you do want to know yes I slept with your husband. But that was before he was your husband." Her heart rate accelerated and I heard of gun cock.

"Benjamin is mine. Go near him I will kill you. But it won't be that difficult. I'm the sister of Lucifer that's trying to kill Benjamin to get to you." I looked out the window to see something moving in the background.

"You lead it here it wasn't going to follow Benjamin's blood because it's following you." Before I could turn around and snap her neck, a hand was through the window and it wrapped around my neck.

***

The Lucifer's hand is wrapped around my neck and it's sister walks up to me. "You should go ahead and die. Nightwalkers and Heavenly breaks are going to die anyways. You gave the Lucifer's what they needed to take them down." She smiled at me, little does she know my heavenly break is still there buried in me.

I quickly jabbed her in the nose causing it to crack on impact. I grabbed the knife that I was washing in the sink and slit the Lucifer's arm open. Blood is gushing from out her nose and out of the Lucifer's arm.

"You b****! My nose." She cried grabbing her nose, and Benjamin walks into the kitchen.

"What's going on?"

"Well your toys over here," I pointed to towards her, "is the Lucifer's sister, and they want to kill me."

"Benjamin she's lying!"

"How are you able to hide your heartbeat from us?" I turned towards her, eyeballing her up and down. "Maria?" She came running down the stairs. "Get the boys and get ready to go."

"Okay." She ran back upstairs to get my grandkids.

"What are you doing, that's my wife!"

"Benjamin do not raise your voice at me, and you are dumbass. She's hiding her heartbeat and you don't suspect something?" The front door went flying through a hallway. "Benjamin get your kids and run."

"Wha...?"

A deep voice from behind Benjamin spoke up, "you should listen to the little lady." Benjamin turned around to see the Lucifer right behind him. "Now Miss D'Antonio you cut me. I don't like blood!" He charged at me and put me in a chokehold.

I broke from the choke hold in a matter of seconds. I ran up to the dining room and grab the shotgun. I fired off 5 rounds into the Lucifer's chest, he didn't fall. "That tickles." He's mocking which only fuels my rage. I can feel my bone shifting, and I could see in his eyes that mine were glowing. "She's a Celestial Walker. Kathy get your children out of here."

"Kathy what the hell?!?!"

She turn towards Benjamin, "be quiet."

I look towards the little figure walking into the dining room. It was Damien, "grandma why is Maria waking us up?" The Lucifer grabbed Damien, he screams and bits the Lucifer's bloody arm escaping.

The beast was going to chase my grandchild. "Hey over here!"

I ran out the back door to get the Lucifer away from all of the children. "D'Antonio we can't keep this up forever." On the contrary we can do it forever. I know the fields like the back of my hand. The Lucifer was close behind me so I lead him into one of the booby traps set in my yard.

There was a huge crash from him falling into the hole. "Jake are you okay?" Kathy and Benjamin ran out of the house behind us.

"They're so primitive that nothing can change them back. So how did you get the Lucifer to turn back to his normal self?" I looked at her, then toward the Lucifer.

"You are a whore D'Antonio. And I hope that you are the first to die in the war that's brewing." In a second my combat knife is lodged into her forehead. The blood trickling down her face was a masterpiece. The Lucifer howled and jump out of the hole. Only to have his neck slit and heart stabbed and ripped out with the same knife I killed his sister with.

"Benjamin I'm not really sorry she was a b*tch. And a total downgrade." I never thought of myself as a 45 year old woman being sassy.

"Can me and my children stay here? I will help around the house if you need it. I just need to make sure they're in a safe place."

"So you're not mad that I just killed your wife?" He looked me up and down.

"Yeah I'm pissed because I love that woman. But my I need to protect my children."
