Bloody Traditions

Chapter 15- Blood and regret

Xavier and I made it to our room, I notice Eli was in the same spot I lefted him he jumped up all exicted telling me the miles came and checked and him and told him about Tony. I told him to go to his room and play then I come get him after which he argued with me.

"But mom i wanna help. Whoa Papa are you okay" eli asked freezing when he saw Xavier.
"Yes im fine. Eli listen to your mother" Xavier said sitting on the bed. Eli huffed fine then stomped to his room. I shook my head then closed the door then I got my medical bag from our closet and walked to Xavier. His face is swollen, lip bleeding and clothes are covered in blood.

I quickly open my bag and look for gauze to stop the bleeding on his lip. Xavier grabbed me pulling me into his lap.
"Xavier stop i have to stop the bleed" I said trying to fight him.
"Bella you are not to fight me, or pull away" said Xavier pulling me tighter trying to kiss me but I moved away again making him growl
"But you bleeding on me" I pout like a child and Xavier laughs then move his hands to either side of my face then kissing me hard. I moan one a second the push off his lap.

"Eww you got blood in my mouth" I whined then was finally able to get the gauze to stop Xavier lip from bleeding which was difficult since he won't stop laughing at me. After I was finished and cleaning up my first aid mess he stopped laughing.

"Bella you are no longer allowed to be near or alone with Asher, until I say so" said Xavier completely serious I stop what I was doing and look at him.
"Xavier, you can't do that. As much as I am angry and disappointed in him he is still my husband and your brother" I said looking in Xavier eyes.
"Bella, his actions prove otherwise. He let jack make you kiss miles then he sided against me when I stood up to jack. That showed me that when the time comes he won't approve of my plan" he stated taking my hand and standing up looking at me.

"Your plan" I asked
"To kill jack" I gasp at his words
"But if he deosnt approve or help you then.."
"He dies too" Xavier said all to calmly then adds
"And your going to help me" I gasp at his words then argue that will not help him. But Xavier tell me that I will do what he says is best.

........

My mind raced as I cleaned the blood off the kitchen floor. After talking with Xavier he went to be with Eli, after making it clear that he trusted me not to talk anyone and to help him when the time comes.

The wheels in my head were turning with Jack gone I had a better chance of Eli and I being free but did I want Ash to die with Jack.
What about miles, for some reason Xavier wasn't concerned. Maybe that means he knows miles will side with us.

"Bella" I voice said behind me, making me scream and jump 3 feet in the air while dropping the mop. I turn to see a laughing Asher
"Its not funny you scared the crap out of me" I said a bit to loud then stepped back making more space between ash and I.
"Bella I'm sorry. I love you please I don't want to lose you" he said looking down
"You have to talk to Xavier" I said not knowing what else to say.
"Seriously bella" ash said mad then grabbed my hand hard enough to bruise it.
"You are my wife bella, Xavier has no right to take you away from me" ash saying showing a side of him I never seen before making tears run down my cheek.

"Asher let go of bella now. It is not her fault she is doing what she is told and since Xavier is the head husband she has too listen to him before she listens to you" said jack coming into the kitchen i gasp as ash let's me go the stomps up the stairs no doubt in my mind that he is going to find Xavier.

I swallow hard as jack steps closer i back up but he follows me until my back hits the basement door that is in the kitchen. "Jack please" I beg quietly as he pushes up against me.

"Shh, Bella. You remember our little deal dont you, you have to do everything" he whispered into my ear I gasp as his hand grab my waist and grinds into me cause me to feel his hard member. "Please no" I beg again and think about screaming but I cant risk Eli.

"I glad you won bella, We have a new member of are family and..." Jack trailed off as puts his head in my neck taking a deep breath of my scent. "I get to do what I want to this delicious body of yours" jack finishes Then kisses up my neck, I cry softly and wiggle trying to get free but his grip is too strong. He reaches my lips places a firm rough kiss moaning then released me backing away.

"As much as I would love to continue and show you what its like to be with a real man. I have to punish you cause of that pathetic husband of your" jack said then pulled a knife out of his pocket. I never thought I would be happy about getting punished.

"Hold your arm out bella. Im going to cut your arm 3 times, so everytime Xavier see your arm he will remember he is the cause of these scars" jack said I reluctantly held up my arm still shaking and cry from jacks earlier assault.

Jack cut 3 long cut from my wrist to my elbow, the cuts weren't deep thankfully but hurt all the same making me cry out each cut. On my last cut I heard foot steps coming downstairs.

Eli came in the kitchen with Xavier and Asher following him. "Mom" Eli yelled running to me and hugging me making jack step away.
"What the hell jack" said Xavier grabbing a kitchen towel and wrapping my arm.

"Watch your tone. You caused those cuts on bella with you disrespect." Said jack warning Xavier. I could tell Xavier wanted to lash out but I quietly begged him not to say anything.

"Clean bella up, then help her make supper" jack ordered then lefted outside Asher came up to us but Xavier gave him a dirty look.
"Mom is okay Eli how about you come with me and we finish chores outside" said Asher I was thankful cause Eli nodded then lefted.

Looking at the clock we only had an hour until supper, we already passed lunch. Xavier hurried to bandage me up the helped me make supper which we did in silence. Which I was thankful for.

I thought about what happened this jack and shivered when I remember his body against mine 'why did I have to make the deal, why did I have to be right' I thought to myself. But the more I thought of what I should do, and what was best for Eli. The clearer the answer became.

"We have to kill jack" I announce out loud while setting the table. Xavier looked at me with and evil smirk putting the cooked meat on the table.
"We will soon"
