BXBX NOVEL Chapter 255: On that day [2/2]
Josephine made a visibly frightened expression before looking at me. Unable to respond, the Italian sobbed as she ran for the door.
"Jo! Wait! You!!!" Jas tried to call out to her sister before coming for Bella with a raised fist. The Brazilian didn\'t back down and instead countered with a kick.
The two exchanged a flurry of blows before Robyn and Liv forcefully separated them. Luckily my {Kismet} enabled Bella to defend herself against Jasmine\'s superior constitution as a descendant.
"Bella! What the hell is wrong with you? Regain your senses at once! You are acting like a fool! Do not take Beloved\'s kindness for granted!" Liv roared.
"Oh? Isn\'t that what you\'re doing? You came here to find a sugar daddy didn\'t you, Northerner? Poor Princess Liv, stripped of her crown, came here to ask for someone to save her pathetic shithole of a country! Why should Honey have to deal with the stupidity of your race?"
"Bella! Shut up, you slagger! That is too much! This is not what Possum wants!" Robyn scolded as she squeezed Bella\'s waist.
Liv, who seemed hurt by Bella\'s words, tossed Jasmine aside and charged at Bella like an angry bull.
"[Flash Step]. [Inventory]."
Lilly suddenly teleported in between them and blasted Liv away with a huge torrent of water. At the same moment, she raised her greatsword to Bella\'s chest.
"Isabella Taurus. Inciting violence between Reapers is unacceptable. Stand down or else!"
"Or what? You will make me disappear as well? Get a load of this, honey. The White Guard is nothing more than North America\'s rogue assassination squad. Anyone daddy wants gone, the princess buries underground. They even have the balls to turn their victims into soulgear!
HAHAHAHA!"
"Not another word Bella, I mean it."
"Do it, kill me, Lilly Browning! The one with the lowest body count here is Robyn. And she has over a hundred murders to her name. Can you believe that? A combat joey who has murdered entire clans has the lowest body count! HAHAHAAHA!"
At her words, I saw Robyn bite her lip in frustration. Liv, soaking wet, got up and left without a word. Jasmine followed suit.
Bella continued to laugh as she covered her face with her palm. Robyn, who seemed to be losing her strength, departed timidly. Lilly lowered her weapon and frowned as she made her way out the door.
I stood up and walked over to Bella. Her boisterous laughter seemed pitiful now that there was no one to hear it. Wordlessly, I took her in my arms.
"You can stop acting now, Bella," I said affectionately.
"Huh? Have you become stupid too, honey? I just broke the peace and started a fight with everyone! What do you mean stop acting!"
"Bella, did you notice?"
"What?"
"You haven\'t said a single word in Brazilian."
"It\'s Portuguese, you fucking idiot."
I chuckled slightly as I continued to embrace this charming woman.
"So what if I didn\'t say Portuguese! You are mad at me, right? I tried to bother your beloved girls! Just throw me away and be done with it," she complained.
It was funny that despite her words, she snuggled deeper into my embrace.
"You tend to speak Brazilian when you get emotional, honey. Despite all your apparent anger, you are completely level-headed right now. So this is all an act, with a deeper purpose in mind, like chess."
Bella flinched at my words. Then she started to hurl insults like a defense mechanism.
"Ha! Foda-se essa merda! There! Happy? You are reading too much shit into this! I am just a useless woman that you threw away!
I was the first by your side, now I am the very last!"
I said nothing but swept Bella off her feet. In a princess carry I brought my voluptuous lover to the couch, sat down and placed her on my lap.
"..."
After about a minute of silence, the Brazilian looked at me and asked shyly.
"Honey, aren\'t you going to go after the rest of them?"
"I will, but only after you are okay."
"..."
"..."
"Aren\'t you going to scold me? Honey? I really messed things up."
"I will scold you on Sunday when we are on a bed," I replied confidently.
"This lecher! Are you planning to ravage us after your war?"
"Yes. On that day, I will truly make you all my wives."
"..."
"Will you tell me what is going on now?"
"Honey, why are you so sure that there is something more?"
"Because I trust you. I know you wouldn\'t do something like this without a good reason."
"..."
"Tell me, honey. I am the one who loves you the most."
"This is too unfair. Why do you always throw my plans out the window?"
"Because I love you."
"..."
"Now tell me."
Bella sighed deeply and laid her head on my chest. The woman lay defenseless in my lap, unaware of the danger her purity was in.
"Each of the Sirens has a dark secret. Something we do not want you to know. I thought it would keep them from truly being yours.
"When I heard your words to Robyn earlier, I knew we were being foolish. But the others would never say anything without a justifiable reason," Bella confessed.
"And you chose to be the villain, forcing everyone\'s hand."
"Yes."
"I see."
"..."
"..."
"Honey. Say something."
"Why did you do that?"
"I didn\'t want anyone to regret it. I lost my loved ones abruptly, honey. Regret is painful."
"..."
"If for some reason we lose you in the war. I want my sisters to know that you love them, even the parts they hate about themselves."
"Is that the same for you?"
"Yes. I wanted to do this even if they continue to be stubborn."
"I see."
"Honey. I am Isabella Taurus. Commander of the Azul Legiao terrorist group. I hacked myself into the records of the CORE, I am not a real cop. I waged war against the Comando Vermelho, a crime syndicate in South America. They killed my parents when I was fourteen."
Hearing her trembling voice, I hugged my lover even tighter as she revealed her true self.
"Honey. Everything Aki said is true. I am a horrible person. That is probably why I ended up in hell. John...your words to Robyn. Is it okay if I believe them too?"
I stole Bella\'s lips and gave her a deep and loving kiss before answering.
"Of course. From this day on, I will shoulder all your sins. When Judgment Day comes, we will suffer the punishment together. But for now I will plan how to kill the Commando bastards in the future, okay Mrs. Code?"
"Okay Mr. Code," Bella said with a bright smile, as tears streamed down her face.
