Reapers and Angels

by Margie Eileen Jones

At one point, it was rather funny when Kingsly got the whip stuck in the dummy and was tugging at it with all his might finally pulling it free and falling on his ass. At that, Sebastian did laugh.

  Ronald patted Sebastian’s leg and told him he would see him later. He had to get ready for work.

  Kingsly finally came out putting the whip away and asked Sebastian if he wanted to try out any other weapons. Sebastian decided to practice shooting for a bit. Kingsly and Sebastian both got guns and were shooting at targets with Kingsly aiming for the head with his tongue hanging out of his mouth a bit. It was cute to Sebastian who was done with his target.

  Sebastian did walk back to the apartment complex hand in hand with Kingsly who leaned on him laughing at his joke since he did not know Sebastian was funny. Kingsly also had an odd sense of humor like Ripley since the Undertaker seemed to like crude jokes.

  When they flew to the top with Sebastian holding onto Kingsly’s arm, they walked inside seeing Ashton once again running all over the house with Charles. The boy and puppy had too much energy for their own good. William was reading his book ignoring the chaos in the house and Anne was finishing the last dress for Kingsly.

  Christian apparently was in the bedroom with Calis. He had been in there most of the day teaching the boy how to crochet and knit.

  When Sebastian came into the bedroom, he saw Calis and Christian lying on the bed working on knitting something. Calis seemed to understand knitting better than crocheting and was doing a good job with whatever he was making.

  The puppy was busy jumping on Kingsly who was cooing at Charles and picking the puppy up getting kisses then he set the pup on the floor so Ashton could continue the game of chase the dog around the house.

  Kingsly sat on the couch giving William a tender kiss hoping he was having a good day. He was all sweaty from the gym and went to the bathroom followed by William who put his book away.

  William proceeded to get undressed to go help Kingsly in the shower. Kingsly had to admit although Bassy was sexy shirtless William had a much nicer chest in her eyes. William was a bit thicker in chest than Sebastian with a little bit of softness to him. Sebastian was as hard as a rock with nothing but muscle.

  Kingsly sighed as he leaned into his husband. Since Raphael turned back time Kingsly did not know what he had done with Sebastian. However, he had thought about cheating on William today and now that he saw his husband he was glad he did not cheat at least that he knew of. Kingsly loved William intensely and it would kill Kingsly to hurt his husband. Also, he knew he would tell William what happened if it did happen. They swore to always tell each other the truth and Kingsly still believed in that.

  “I love you William.”

  Kingsly said as he kissed him and William kissed him back.

  “I love you too Kingsly.”

  William said as he washed his beloved wife.

  “You still have feelings for Sebastian don’t you Kingsly?”

  William asked suddenly and Kingsly turned around.

  “I did and I almost cheated with him today. I was stopped by the Grim Reaper. He told me what a mistake it would be and he was right. I could never hurt you like that William. I love you and only you. I may be always attracted to Sebastian, but you are my life William. I want us to be together forever and happy.”

  William kissed Kingsly.

  “I left you two alone today since I thought that might happen. I wanted to know where I stood with you concerning him. I would have understood although I don’t know if I would have ever forgiven Sebastian.’

  “I am still surprised you forgave me. I really did not deserve it, but I love you for it. Sebastian as an Angel cannot always control his urges so I am begging you to be careful around him. Angels cannot control themselves like we can.”

  William did know a lot about Angels. He knew what the Grim Reaper had told him and he always trusted the Grim Reaper’s words. He had never steered William wrong and would not.

  “I will be careful. I just worry for Calis. He is such a fragile boy.”

  Kingsly said since the child was amazingly strong except for two things, that frail little body of his and that heart that loved Sebastian. Calis’s love ran deep and no one wanted the boy hurt again.

  “Sebastian is allowed women. He is off limits to males, but he can have women. Calis allows that.”

  William washed his beloved.

  “I did not know that. Well, half the female reaper community will be happy with that bit of information. He got the phone numbers of about a hundred female reapers.”

  Kingsly said and William chuckled. Sebastian was definitely a magnet for women.

  “Well as long as they know Sebastian is a married man who won’t be serious with anyone, things should be fine. I think though that he is really trying to be loyal to Calis. It is really difficult for him. He truly loves that boy.”

  William washed his wife’s hair.

  “What would you have done if I did cheat on you with him William?”

  Kingsly asked since he was curious.

  “I would have run my scythe through his head. Then while he was bleeding kicked him in the balls until I felt better. Then I might forgive you both or just you.”

  William said honestly since that is what he would have done. He knew he could not kill Sebastian, but it would be fun trying.

  Kingsly smiled since he kind of liked that about William. He was brutal and honest.

  “What would you have done to me?”

  Kingsly asked since he wanted to know.

  “I would have spanked you and whipped you until you passed out cold. Then I would wash every inch of him off you so that you would be clean again. Most likely, I would cry which I hate as you well know and then I would forgive you. You forgave me and thus we would be even. We would also both be wearing chastity belts for the rest of our lives.”

  William was damn serious about loyalty. Really if he had his way Kingsly would wear a chastity belt every day of his life so that William was certain no one touched him. William wanted to trust Kingsly though so he would not do that.

  “You know William you can still spank me and whip me until I pass out if you like. I am not going to cheat on you, but that sounds kind of fun.”

  Kingsly said with a wicked look in his eyes.

  “Maybe tomorrow darling. We are going to have to eat soon and get ready for work.”

  William finished washing up than turned off the water. Kingsly dried off and went over to lay on the bed for a bit.

  “William, I am tired. Come sleep with me for a bit.”

  Kingsly took off his towel and climbed into the freshly made bed. Apparently Christian had been busy today.

  William joined his wife in the bed and kissed his cheek. The two rested in each other’s arms relaxing before getting up to get dressed for work and having dinner with the rest of the family.

  Chapter 13

  (Anne’s wedding day)

  As the months passed everyone was eventually moved to their various locations. The reapers helped Sebastian and his family move from Midnight Manor to Florida to a large mansion that Calis had purchased. All human ties were cut and since the murders in the area had occurred already there was no need for the reapers to do a relocation project for Sebastian’s family. The white station wagon was put in storage and everything in Midnight was restored to its former glory with some reapers living there now to watch over the place.

  Kingsly and William moved into an executive suite which was much larger than their former place and Kingsly ended up having to buy more drapes for the windows. William also had a larger office with an additional separate library that was through a panel on the wall of his office.

  Rather than Kingsly and William unpacking things, there were reapers doing this setting up the home to William’s specifications and Kingsly’s recommendations. Kingsly was allowed to do anything he liked to the home other than mess with William’s office. They also had the chains, whips, and bondage items back i
n their new bedroom which had a bed twice the size of the one they had. Kingsly thought that was a bit excessive, but William said it was normal for a home of this size to have a large bedroom with larger furniture.

  Calis brought Libby with him to Florida and was doing much better physically. He had gained the weight back and was now allowed to go on walks with Sebastian out in the city. It was a big city too and easy to get lost in.

  Sebastian and Anne planned to marry soon thus they had her dress made and shipped from London from the same company that did Kingsly’s beautiful gown. It was going to be a small ceremony and Sebastian insisted they did not have it in a church. They were to have it on the beach.

  The rehearsal for the wedding was today and Calis was the ring bearer. Ashton was to be a flower child and Christian was giving Anne away. William and Kingsly were going to be there for this ceremony although William was terribly busy with his new position. Delegating responsibility and hiring on new reapers was not the easiest job. It was a lot of paperwork and he had to send new policies down through management. In fact, his main job was coming up with new policies and procedures for the whole reaper community.

  The first priority William had was the new uniforms for all the reapers. The reapers were to wear them and could chose the colors of the suits, but they all had to look the same as far as styles went. The only place that there was any give on this rule was the ties and shoes. Reapers could choose their footwear and the kind of ties they liked with the suits.

  The CEO’s and upper management though all had to wear black suits with black ties and black oxfords. There was no exception to this rule. Spectacles had to be top priority also. No reaper was to be without their spectacles. If their spectacles were lost, it came out of their pay check and spectacles were not cheap by any means.

  Kingsly was busy instructing female and male reapers on everything that came down from above. The testing was much harder too so the young reapers had to be prepared for everything and thus teaching was much more difficult. Kingsly did try to make it fun though and his students adored him.

  When Kingsly wasn’t teaching, he was out reaping. Ronald became his new partner and the two took reaping to a whole new level. If the soul was going to die and wasn’t important enough to live they found creative ways to get to the life records. Kingsly would usually cut off body parts while Ronald mowed them down to mulch. The records were collected and the two had a blast doing it.

  As Sebastian waited for Kingsly and William to arrive for the rehearsal, he watched as Calis and Ashton built a sand castle. The preacher was a reaper that did human ceremonies as well so this was going to be done in front of humans. The illusion would be complete and then Sebastian would have his one night with Anne where she would conceive a child. He would make love to Anne until his seed took and then she would go be with Christian for the rest of her life.

  Anne was holding Christian’s hand as he looked at her really wishing it had been him that was marrying her. Still, Christian was happy for Sebastian although he really couldn’t wait for this nonsense to be over with. Christian wanted his woman back in his arms.

  Soon Kingsly, William, and the reaper doing the ceremony arrived. Kingsly and William were still in their reaper uniforms as was the reaper doing the ceremony. All of them had just gotten off work. It was fairly early in the morning and the sun was just past the horizon rising into the sky.

  “All right, let’s do this so we can be prepared for tomorrow.”

  William said since he was tired and ready to go home to sleep for a while.

  Everyone got together and the whole ceremony was gone over with Anne standing next to Sebastian. They had gone over this a few times and then it was time for everyone to leave. Kingsly was glad since he was worn out. Kingsly did not think he could stay up another second.

  The reapers left through a portal and Sebastian got his family together as they got into the limousine and headed back to the mansion. Calis and Ashton had sand stuck to them still so there was sand in the car, but the driver would clean that up.

  As they entered the mansion, Calis’s cat Libby was there to greet them kind of like a dog. The cat was weird to Calis, but he loved her. She had made him very happy when he had been ill. He picked her up and carried her into the living room getting ready to watch some television when Sebastian made Calis put the cat down and took him straight into the bathroom before sand ended up all over the house.

  Removing Calis’ clothing, Sebastian started the tub filling it up with hot water. The tubs in this place were huge and made Calis seem so little in them. Sebastian took off his clothing and joined Calis in the bath washing his little Lord and relaxing with him in the water.

  Over the last few months Sebastian had not made love to Calis since he was afraid of hurting the boy. Calis had still been so thin and fragile that Sebastian was always afraid he might break his tiny husband. However, now that they were home and Calis had gained the weight back, Sebastian wanted to be with Calis again intimately.

  Calis said he wanted to wait to have sex after Sebastian was with Anne since if they were going to start again he wanted them to start after Sebastian had gotten rid of some of his lustful urges. Calis felt if Sebastian could at least be rough with Anne a few times that perhaps that would help Sebastian feel more comfortable with having sex with him when he could not be quite as rough.

  Sebastian did not want to wait, but after tomorrow he wouldn’t have to. Sebastian would respect Calis’ feelings although it was hard not to wish to make love to the beautiful boy in his arms. Calis was so very beautiful and Sebastian loved him intensely. Sebastian wanted to be the husband Calis deserved, he just did not know how.

  Calis rested falling asleep in the tub with Sebastian since they had to get up so early in the morning for the rehearsal. Sebastian knew his beloved was asleep and let him rest as he kept the water warm for a while then carefully lifted Calis out of the tub drying him off. Sebastian then took Calis into the bedroom tucking the boy into bed just as Libby came in the room.

  Sebastian picked up the cat petting her for a few minutes before tucking her into the bed with Calis. Libby purred as she lay upon Calis’s side which of course would only last so long before she was once again sleeping on the boy’s head.

  The cat was the strangest thing since it was very attached to Calis. It went everywhere the boy went like a dog. It seemed to almost be like Calis’ little guardian Angel. It would also wait at the door for Calis to come home and when he did it would purr around his legs happily.

  Sebastian wanted another cat like Samson, but he had not quite gotten over Samson’s death. He was still very pissed off about that and was looking for demons to kill. So far, it seemed that the demons were in hiding as if waiting for something.

  There were reapers and Angels watching over their mansion. The Angels stuck out like sore thumbs even with the Archangels stating they would fit in. The ones watching the mansion were gorgeous creatures who walked about in black suits with ties watching for anything and everything. Sometimes Sebastian could hear them on the roof of the mansion walking around. Angels tended to like it where it was high up.

  Sebastian noted that the Angels they had were also former officers in Archangel Michael’s Army. They were the kind of Angels you did not want to fuck with unless you wanted to have a very bad day. Most demons avoided these kinds of Angels which was part of the reason Sebastian figured he could not find any demons.

  Every day Sebastian still trained as if he was going to battle. He figured out the portal spells so he could go to the gym in the reaper’s community as well as the hall of weapons where he got to learn the value of every weapon there.

  Sebastian went about the usual things of the day, setting up tea times, lunch, breakfast, dinner, and then bed time where he cuddled with Calis the whole night with Libby sleeping on top of Calis’ head the whole night long. He wasn’t allowed to see Anne which was fine; if she wanted a traditional wedding he would give her one.

br />   Kingsly was picking up Anne’s wedding dress since he had appreciated all Anne’s hard work on her outfits that all fit now. When Kingsly arrived, he went straight to Anne’s room where the bride was squeezed into a tight corset to the point Anne did not know if she could breathe since Kingsly had pulled it so tightly on her. Kingsly said beauty means pain.

  The dress was quite tasteful that Kingsly wore and a bit more conservative than usual. It was of course red and William had bought it seeing it in a window thinking his Kingsly would look lovely in it. He did too. It was silk and chiffon with bell sleeves and for once Kingsly wore flats since they would be on the beach.

  Anne was dressed in the gown with tons of white lace, satin, and glittering beads. The dress cost a fortune, but this was not the only time Anne would be wearing it. She was going to wear it when she married Christian. For her and Christian’s ceremony it was going to be much more elaborate and the reception much bigger.
