Nearly six thousand years ago a group of Sekhmet's personal guards stepped through a portal from Tuat (where the Egyptian Gods reside) to Earth after their king was killed. Their assignment was simple enough; find the leader and followers of Set's Legions who committed such a horrible atrocity and destroy them.

Sekhmet in her wisdom offered her blood to her elite force, which granted them immortality. Are they vamps? In a sense, but not in the traditional sense. They do require blood to survive and to keep them bound to Earth, but they can also walk in daylight, eat and drink normal food, go for long periods of time without digesting it, mate and have children. They can also die by being beheaded. Anyway, their purpose remain today what it was in the beginning. Living near Lake Michigan Sekhmet's guards run a world-wide protection agency, named Guardians Incorporated, more commonly called GI, where they protect the rich, the famous and the less fortunate from the Legion or ills of our modern day world.

SNIPPET: ETERNAL LOVERS

“SIT!” the black haired one, demanded.

He sat down in the chair directly next to Bill. He started to speak, but before he uttered a single word, he was silenced by the Ancient’s unspoken command.

“Do you know who I am?” The largest of them asked.

“Sire, I can only assume you are one of the seven Ancients, one of the makers of our race.”

“I am Gabriel, once know as Netchkhet. I am the leader of the Guardians.”

“Sire, it is an honor.”

“Silence. Do not speak unless you are spoken to. Your fate and the fate of that…” Gabriel said as he sneered at Bill, “…is undetermined. Do not try to please me with your whimpering pledges of admiration.” 

It dawned on David that Gabriel’s mouth was not moving as he spoke. He was interjecting his thoughts directly into his mind.

“The decision has been made. I was content to keep your little secret quiet for Jennifer’s sake. I even thought about giving her husband the opportunity to make a choice, Jennifer or you. Not anymore.”

He turned his attention to Bill and spoke aloud. “You will release all holds on Jennifer. You will never see her again. Everything you own is now hers. Your house, your money, and your cars… Do you understand?”

Bill’s head nodded as he was still unable to speak.

Gabriel looked back at him and once again interjected his question directly into his mind.

“Does this mortal mean anything to you? Or is he here simply for your amusement? Speak your answer aloud so all can hear.”

David wasn’t sure if the Ancients would understand his feelings towards Bill but he had nothing to lose by telling them the truth. They would know if he was lying.

“I love him more than my own life. If he would have me, I would have him as my lifemate.”

 “That woman has stood in the way of my happiness...”

Gabriel growled then slapped him right out of his chair and sent him flying across the room.

“DO NOT USE THAT TONE WITH ME EVER AGAIN! That woman as you called her has a name, and you are not worthy to speak it. Now get your ass back in the chair. I’m not finished with you.”

He crawled back across the floor and into the chair without ever standing.

Gabriel pulled out a cell phone and pushed a button to call someone.

“Are you watching this? Good, tell me what this son of a bitch’s holdings are.”

“Okay, thanks,” the Ancient said before flipped the cell phone closed.

“You’re lucky I don’t kill the two of you right here. Knowing what is in your veins gives me that right.”

He knew exactly what Gabriel was referring to. All immortals knew their own ancestry. He swallowed hard, hating the fact he was a descendent of Unab.

“In spite of everything you have done; the pain you have inflicted on a mere innocent, I will allow you both to live. I do not want to dirty my hands with your blood, for if I were to kill you, I would be unworthy of her presence. But I can not let you off scot free. You will make restitution on behalf of your new lifemate to Jennifer. Do you agree to my demands?”

David didn’t know what or how much it was going to cost him but he was willing to pay anything to have a life with Bill. He placed his right hand over his heart and bowed his head.

“Sire, on the blood of my father, I do so agree.” 

The oath was given.

“Good.  I have been informed that you have considerable holdings. You will deposit twenty five million dollars into a Swiss bank account we set up for her. In addition, you will deposit five hundred thousand into her personal bank account. For every year the two of you live, you will continue to make an additional deposit of the sum of five hundred thousand into her Swiss account. My associates will send you the information you will need within 24 hours. She will never know this money comes from you. Neither of you will see her again. Jennifer will remain under the care and protection of the Guardians for her entire life… Do you understand me?

David bowed his head. “Yes Sire.”
