As I lay here next to Lucy tracing her fingers with mine, I put my hand on her flat stomach and start talking to my unborn child. We were going to be parents, never in my right mind did I think this was possible, but yet here we are. And to think she went to the dark island pregnant. How did I not know? Better yet how did she not know? I wish she would wake up so I could tell her the wonderful news. I hope she would be as happy as I am.
Itâs been a full day since she has been asleep. I know Stella said it could be a few days but I have so much I want to talk to her about. And if we are being totally honest I was scared she would never wake up. I was lost in my thoughts when I hear a knock on the door.
âCome Inâ
âHowâs she doing? Any changes?â Sky asked. âNo not really she made a few noises but that was about it.â I look over Skyâs shoulder and see Stella is holding a folder. Fuck more test. She has been running test nonstop on Lucy to find out more about the baby and make sure Lucyâs body is healing okay.
âSo good news is Lucy never left pregnant, but she did come home pregnant. The test I have been running are to see how you could conceive. Youâre immortal so it should be nearly impossible. But I have a feeling the black magic on the island had played some part in all of this. Did you two have sex on the island? And did Lucy use her powers and you use yours at the same time if and when this happened?â Stella asked waiting impatiently for my answer.
What the hell did it matter. It happened and were here now. Thatâs all that matters. But Stella is a witch so when it comes to magic she needs to know what makes it tick. Itâs like she needed to study and dissect it until she understood it. Then put all the pieces back together.
âYes we was in the cave and couldnât see so I opened my wings, things got hot and heavy and I told Lucy to take from me, that I wanted to fill her in every way.â I explained knowing Stella would be happy to know what happen and Sky to fist bump me. She was such a little minx and Kye had his hands full. I loved knowing she was his mate and now Luna she will make a damn good one.
âOh my, yes that is definitely what has happened then. The magic from you and her and the island all combined unlocked a barrier and let you two have a baby. Itâs a miracle to say the least. But there is one thing, the baby is growing at fast speed. I think itâs more powerful than all of us. Sheâs measuring around 7 weeks, but itâs been about a 2 weeks. I will keep and eye on them both. Iâll let you have some time alone.â Stella stated growing excited.
âThanks Stella, for everything. We wouldnât be able to live our lives together with a bundle of joy if it wasnât for you. We are very grateful.â I smile and climb back in bed with Luc. I would never leave her. I didnât want her to wake up alone and freak out if she wasnât herself. I just really needed her right now.
âCome on baby, come back to me. I need you.â I whisper in her ear as I kissed her soft cheek. Her heartbeat was steady and she was doing great health wise. But I just donât understand why she wonât wake up? What if she doesnât want to come back? No no no, I canât think like that. She would not have done all this for nothing. She loves me and we are in this together forever.
I started to feel really warm and jerk awake to check on Lucy. I didnât even realize I had fallen asleep. I look around and it was still dark out but the bedroom was glowing a blue color. What the fuck was that? I look down at Lucy and she is still laying there with her favorite white tee and black leggings on.
I changed her when I brought her up to our room, I wanted her to feel like she was home in bed just getting some much needed rest. Not that she drank a potion and then got her neck snapped. I still couldnât get that image out of my head. Her lifeless body just lay there limp in my arms. I need to call for Stella her body has a blue glow around it and itâs freaking me out. Is this normal? Fuck no nothing about this situation is normal.
âSTELLA!!!â I shouted as loud as I could. My voice was shaky and I couldnât look away from this blue glow. I was mesmerized by it. Something about it just made me feel at ease.
âWhatâs wrong? Oh my god!! Liam its its-â Stella tried to explain but I cut her off because I was sure it was bad very very bad.
âItâs the baby.â Stella whispered. I looked around and then thatâs when I seen it. The glow was just around Lucy it covered her whole body like it was protecting her. Thatâs why I felt the heat. Could our baby possibly have my abilities?
Lucyâs body started shaking and it was like a bolt of lighting hit her over and over again. What was happening, was the baby trying to hurt her? Does the baby have to much power for her? I need answers now!
âStella what the fuck is happening?â I demanded
âThe baby, itâs umm trying to wake her up. I have never seen anything like this so Iâm not sure. But I think the baby feels what youâre feeling. Itâs trying to wake her up so you will not be in pain.
The baby may be in her but I think itâs more like you then we know.â Stella calmly explains what she thinks may be whatâs going on. And I have no idea so the only answers I have to go by is hers. So thatâs what I am going to do. Follow the baby demands
âThatâs right baby bring momma home, make her come back to us. Let her know how much we need her.â I whisper to my unborn child like he was in the room with us. Him or her I have no idea, but I couldnât call him a it. He was so much more than that. He was everything I ever wanted him and his mother. I would do anything to bring them back to me. And I see that he feels that now, so he is willing to help.
He hit Lucy again and her eyes fly open and she sits up looking right at me and starts to suck the life out of me. Her eyes flash from pink to gold back to blue. Her body is adjusting to her new powers and her mind is using the only one it knows.
âLuc Itâs me, stop please let me help you. Baby please donât make me miss this moment and have to wait even longer to see you. I know you are confused but please let me explain.â I begged her. I didnât want to die and have to come back it would take to long and I needed to see her now.
âLUCY ENOUGH!â I shouted in a tone that would normally hurt humans ears. She stood up looking at me, she wrapped her arms around my neck and whispered in my ear.
âLiam is that really you? Everything looks so different and I could have sworn you was talking to someone when I woke. And I feel different, like there is something inside of me that is changing my mood.â She explains and she has no idea her world is about to be rocked when she knows she is now carrying a child.
âLuc there is a lot going on for you right now. Why donât you sit so I can explain it to you.â I gently told her and guided her to the bed. Stella had already left when Lucyâs eyes opened. She didnât want to freak her out more.
âLuc we have some news and it will explain why you are feeling this way. But promise me you wonât freak out.â I pleaded with my eyes trying to get her just to hear me out. I love the fact that we are going to be parents I just hope she will be too.
âLucy were pregnant.â I whisper. âLiam I know.â She whispers back. With a smile as she takes my hand and puts it on her stomach. âShe came to me when I was transforming into my immortal body. Itâs like she was in my mind telling me I have to make it back to daddy and so she could be born. I thought it was all a dream, until I woke up and felt that same warm feeling I once did in my head.
Liam I wouldnât have made it back without her. Something was pulling me to the other side and I had to fight with everything I had to make it out. Until she blasted bolts of lighting and she shined the light on which path I was supposed to take. Liam she is our magical little baby, who saved us both. I love her so much already.â Lucy smiles and rubs her hand over mine. And just like that we were a family.
âItâs a girl? Now I feel bad. I called her a him because I didnât like calling her it. Lucy I am so happy that you are back and that we are going to be parents. I love you so much.â
