a bit of a desperate situation
This is a bit lengthy, and we need help with a serious situation, one where we need to figure out how to keep someone from killing. I am not joking.
x-posted
Last night there was a long discussion between Josh and I, one of the men I love. A lot of things were brought to light and at the end, so much had been building inside, that I finally broke down in tears. This opened the doorway. The doorway which Armand rushed through.
Let me give you some background on Armand. He tolerated Josh at the beginning because he though that this man was one of my flings. He never thought he'd be around this long, much less that I would end up in love with him. When that became obvious, Armand (to make a very long story short), in a very devious fashion came out at one of the most inopportune times and threatened Josh. I knew that Armand hated him, Josh knew this too. And even though we were aware of this and I had become aware that if anyone in my system were to kill, it wasn't Blade like we all first suspected (who would have been capable perhaps in her younger days but her role has changed now).... the one to kill would be Armand.
I cannot express how very serious this is.
Currently, my arms are bruised severly, my legs as well. My throat still feels the remnants of force.
Last night, Armand came out.
Last night Armand tried to kill Josh.
Damion has wrestled with alters before, those trying to harm the body, or those just freaking out, sometimes striking out against him. But never has one tried to maliciously harm him, nor kill him. None have placed a hand on his throat. None did what Armand did last night.
I know how hard that was for Josh to do, fight with a woman that looks like his girlfriend but is instead the jealous raging alter of Armand. He feels awful for what he did to me, but he had too, some you know this, if he didn't, I'd be in jail right now.
He would have killed him.
I don't know what to do. We're terrified. So much more happened.
I just wondering, does anyone out there have any advice? Anything to help get Armand in control. Besides the obvious reasons of why killing would be a bad idea, we would be the first to be questioned and well, we have a record. Everything is on file.
I'm concerned about Josh's safety right now. We've taken the obvious precautions, as in the weapons we're usually armed with have been removed, although I don't really like taking away even just my knife because of personal safety. I don't want to take chances.
For a bit of background, talking to Armand doesn't work well at all. It was recently revealed that Armand is not just protective of me, but in love with me as well. He's jealous of Josh, no doubt, but promised Josh if ever he harmed me in anyway he would make him pay. I need to find ways to protect Josh. I really don't want to lose him.

Re: Wanted To Comment
I'm handling this, I'm getting us to work (in a reasonable timely fashion) so that we can pay this mortgage, our bills, our car payment. Josh is safe and protected because a) we've been stripped of all weapons and b) we are no where near him. Last night was spent in serious reflection and discussion with those close to us. This morning, more discussion and more thinking. A lot has been decided.
Currently Armand is calm, currently Armand has stepped down, and has become silent. I will not allow us near Josh until a) I'm positive there is no threat or b) there is more than one person to restrain us. Although, through my dealings with Armand, and with Josh, it does appear Josh can handle his own (looking at these bruises on the body) and that Armand will never fight/attack at Josh's disadvantage, he's a man that fights fair and would only kill if looking into the other's eyes.
But once again, at the moment there is no threat.
