Marcy's cup clattered to the plate below her, as she stared at Nier in genuine shock, and question.
"The Hero Association? Why the fuck are you asking Bella about sothing like that?"
Bella, on the other hand, gave Nier a curious look, as she kept up her cool and calm deanor as she asked.
"The goth has a point, big guy, call curious but why ask sothing like that?"
"I am not a goth, I am emo, learn the difference."
Marcy annoyingly blurt out, but both Bella and Nier tuned her out, as they focus just on each other.
Then Nier snorted, loud and ugly, leaning back so hard the chair creaked.
"I need help getting a license."
"A license?"
Bella questioned.
"Yeah."
He said with glinting eyes, and continue to explain.
"The thing is, I have been hunting Fluxes in the shadows for year now, and mind you illegally as well. I have many weapon's as I have been snagging parts, selling em under the table, while building my little… collection. Parasitic ones are my favourites though, given you can't steal those unless you kill , which is easier said than done."
"Are they really that hard to cut out of you!?"
Marcy asked, trying to be apart of the conversation, and Nier replied.
"Fuck yeah it is, I an good luck prying those out without turning into a corpse, parasites need a host to rely on, so needing specific conditions and the likes, my body for the most part has been developed to handle multiple. But in the eyes of the law, that already makes a walking, talking Flux since I am not really human anymore due to corrupting my body like so."
Bella wiped her hands on a napkin as so of her tea had spilled on her hand, as she said.
"Oh, that is valid reason indeed. Especially since Public Service hunt mostly at night so getting stop by them for illegally hunting at night would be a problem."
Hearing this Nier flashed a wolfish grin as he reply.
"Yeah, and if they catch , I am afraid I will have to dispose of them."
"Wait, have you killed before? Fluxes aside of course."
Nier just smiled and said.
"No comnt, anyways, you think you can help out here Bella? I wouldn't mind paying you for helping here, as you should know, money is far from my problem."
Marcy didn't respond to that, but she did sigh as she began to lose herself in her own thoughts.
Bella on the other hand leaned forward, her elbows on the table, chin in her palms.
"Alright I will help."
"Really!?"
Nier asked, to which she nodded.
"Yeah, I can help hotshot. My brother actually works with them or rather, he one of their massive investor's, he got eighteen percent of the whole damn Association under him as the second biggest shareholder after the founder. I will call him up, don't worry about rejection, he is a re man anyways, as a princess he has to do what I, or any of my sisters say."
She whispered that last part, but Nier heard her as clear as day with his keen senses.
'It would seem I was right, House Zane is indeed a matriarchal house, well, to a degree I could guess.'
'Still, I can't make Bella feel left out can I, let's try to get more closer to her, I am sure she will love this.'
With that in mind, Nier's hand shot across the table like a striking snake, wrapping around Bella's wrist, his thumb tracing slow circles over her pulse.
He then said, pretending what is doing wasn't intentional, but a spur of the mont kind of thing.
"You would really do that for , princess?"
Bella's lashes fluttered, her voice dropping to an octave lower as she said, shyly but content.
"Anything for you, Nier. You know that I enjoy your company, beside I owe you a lot for suddenly dropping into your life like this, and making you my bodyguard and driver no less."
Hearing this, Nier comnted back, showing his gratitude.
"Thank you, Bella. Any chance you could make that magic happen today though?"
Bella bit her lip, slid out of the chair with a deliberate roll of her hips.
"Gim one minute."
She sauntered toward the hallway door, left, right, left, ass swaying like she was on a runway, knowing every eye in the room was glued.
The second she vanished around the corner, Marcy let out a low whistle, cheeks flushed dark.
"Jesus. That woman has fine peice of ass on her."
Nier barked a laugh, loud enough to rattle the cups.
"First thing we've agreed on since forever."
Marcy's fingers twisted in her lap, black nail polish chipped. She swallowed hard, voice barely above a whisper, as she said sothing she had wanted to say for a while.
"...s..sorry."
Nier's head snapped toward her, a little taken back by her sudden apology.
"Sorry you say, and what is this sorry even for?"
She wouldn't et his eyes at that mont, but if she wants to even get close to him, they need to address the elephant in the room, and she knew this as her bangs were falling over her nervous eyes like a curtain.
"Sorry for… everything basically... I am sorry for sneaking onto your property when I was fourteen. I am sorry for spray-painting "FUCK YOU" on your garage in neon green when you call the cops on . I am sorry for egging your SUV when you past for work one morning, almost causing you to crash."
"Wait...that was you!?"
Nier said a little pissed, he rembered that incident as clear as day.
But Marcy continue to apologize.
"I am sorry for calling the cops pigs when they hauled off your lawn. I am sorry for everything, all of it. I was a little psycho bitch, if not a fucking cunt back then... So again, I am sorry."
Her voice cracked on the last word, her shoulders hunching like she expected a slap
One bleeding sincerity as its force.
But nothing ca rather, Nier gave her a annoyed look as he said.
"I accept your apology brat, besides I am fucking your mom now so yeah."
"You know, at first I just saw you as grumpy middle age man with too much money, and little ti for your own self, but now that I know you a tad bit better now, I never took you for the asshole type."
She comnted back, and at the sa ti, Tanya ca and placed a plate of breakfast in front of Nier, and then Marcy as she said.
"Stop being an to your stepfather."
"She ain't my daughter.”
"Like hell he is my father."
The two said at the sa ti, taking Tanya by surprise, then she chuckled, while going back to the stove to get Bella food.
"My, my, you two are quite similar to a degree."
"If that is the case you have quite the trash taste in n sweetheart."
Nier said jokingly.
And Marcy elbow his side, but ended up hurting her hand instead.
"Fuck what is your body made out of!?"
"Flesh, blood, bones, the usual."
"Bullshit, I felt like I elbowed a fucking a tal wall."
She said holding her left elbow, causing Nier to chuckle a bit as he ate his food.
"Well that's what I’m made out of, it's not my fault that your delusional brain think it could hurt with your laughable strength, keep in mind your still a human being, your flesh is soft and spongy, while I am literally bullet proof, and strong enough to throw a car with one hand, and yeah, probably be able to yeet it hundreds of feet away too."
Marcy rely rolled her eyes at this, as she began to eat her breakfast.
anwhile, Bella ca back suddenly with a big smile as she looked at Nier and said.
"So I talked to my bro, and he said he will talk to the Director now, so I would advise you to get ready, as we would need to leave in an hour."
"Ohhh word, ok then, let just finish this and we will get a move on."
"Can I co!?"
"Hmmm....
Nier looked at Marcy, then smile while drinking the last of his coffee.
"Do whatever you want."
With that, he finished his breakfast and began to walk to Tanya, grabbing her shoulder while saying.
"That was delicious sweety, however I am going to take a shower, care to join ."
"Hmmmm....”
Her eyes went on Bella then Marcy, as she chuckled and said.
"As much as I would want that, I still need to talk to Marcy."
"Oh really bumr, you see what you did brat? Holy cock block woman."
"Can you stop being a pervert for like one minute."
"Says the girl with an OF Account."
"Wait, how did you... MOMMMMM did you…?”
She questioned Tanya, anwhile Nier walked off, While saying.
"And I guess that my que to leave."
With that Nier went back to his room, and straight into the shower.
"Nice... Who would have thought Bella worked so quick."
"Yes, when we fully ta that girl, and get her on our side she will be a key figure in the cult."
Kaly said now standing on Nier head, she was naked, but was also taking a bath alongside her beloved.
Nier on the other hand comnted as such.
"Bella aside though, what should we do about Marcy!?"
" and you can tag team her the next ti she goes to sleep in her dreams, first we need to make her fear you."
"Ohhh, I like the sound of that."
"Of course you do, it will also be a good ti to train you on how to dream walk into other people's dreams, it should be easy."
"Really!?"
"Yes, it's basically like normal walking, but with your mind, you will see what I an when you enter her dreams. Still, if I were you, I'd think that this might would be a good opportunity to upgrade yourself before you leave for the hero association, don't worry, I will help you darling."
