8.5 Months later.
It was raining heavily lighting cracked the dark skies and sound of bushes rustling and howling winds grabbed my attention. Petrichor I murmured. I tiptoed from my house and started walking towards the woods after walking a while suddenly I heard an alien sound behind me, my legs and hands were trembled with fear. It seemed as if someone had buried my legs in the ground. I was not able to move an inch my body went numb. Suddenly, a strong pair of arms encircled around my waist and I was slammed against the tree now my front was facing him and comes to face a glowing gold and dark red pair of eyes it was dense dark in forest I cannot see his features. He kept his firm grip on my wrist as I squirmed, trying to get away. He pulled me backward and his right hand fumbled in pocket for something.
I squeal loudly and woke up to find the bed empty on my side. I stand up from my bed removing the duvet which was wrapped around my body. I went directly for shower to relax my mind. I showered leisurely while applying my vanilla body wash on my belly I notice a black line from my navel to prepuce of clitoris. I gasped it was not present yesterday what should I do should I call Vandran. No, I'll wait till my delivery I don't want to bother her. I walked into my closet to find something soft and loose to wear. I picked out a grey sundress and left my hairs loose after blow drying it. After breakfast which was made by Jamarion I decided to have a walk as it will be healthy for both of us. Since my pregnancy he won't allow me to do a single household task.
The frightening image of dream remain locked in mind, his eyes were not same as Jamarion's it was strange. I remember I saw this dream before coming to New York and again before two weeks from my delivery. Jamarion was having full control on my mind and body as his part was growing inside me. He left early in morning to complete his new project he has shifted his office at home so that he can spend as much as time with me. He asked me to stay home today. Whenever I went out he was with me he never leaves me alone he walked beside me like a shadow but today I decided to go against his will. I will go on a walk to get rid of this dream. A light breeze scented in natural scent blowing slowly was sobering my mood. I stopped near an ancient Church this place holds a strange yet calming aura today. One thing I notice there was no cross sign there. As my feet nearing the Church I felt a familiar tinge of déjà vu that I have come here before. I made a futile attempt to glance the surrounding, but my eyes were glued on a giant tree near the entrance of Church a rusted rope was hanging from it. The imposing facade of the Church rose like a giant door against the sky. I met a priest wearing traditional clothes at the entrance of Church. I followed him inside as I stood there and watched the surrounding I realized I could go home and relax to forgot about this dream, but it was lousy idea. So, I waited. The Church was dimly lit and deserted. Inside Church I saw no Image of Jesus and Mother Mary. My black eyes were locked on the strange lamp lit at the entrance a special fragrance was filling the air. I was feeling a rise of trepidation I felt a sepulchral aura near him and the Church.
"My child don't worry everything will be ok". He said in a gentle voice. I sensed my host was a nice person I erased earlier thoughts about him. He scribbles some notes in his brown diary and then chanted some words. Then he made a cross or similar to cross in air and faced me.
"Your child will change the future of this universe. Your child will be special child." He said.
"But fa.. father I ac..actually can't imagine what lies in my future and what's coming next. All my concern is to save this child at every cost." I replied nervously. He walked towards a self and open it then he pulls something out from it. Then he walked towards me, he gave me a temple shaped musical instrument.
"A sistrum rattle" I mumbled.
"It will help you to let the evil spirits away from your child." Then he said a silent prayer for an instant my eyes focused on the reflection of him it was oblong and dominated. The physical built without flaw was easily captured anyone's eye.
"The lord has blessed me to protect you and this child. This was my sole purpose of life." Then he handed me a key. To my surprise it was heavy gold key it was different not like other keys which has jiggered teeth. The head was large in a shape of leaf and heavy and the body was covered with tiny twelve different holes. The end was a curve and, on the curve, AN was engraved.
"What is this father?" I asked confused.
"You need it after some years" He said, and I gave him a grateful smile and left.
11 Days later
His eyes became deadly serious when he noticed my tears falling on my cheeks. He leaned down by bedside and gently stroked my cheeks. My vision was blurry with the lingering tears in my eyes due to labor pain. My water broke two hours ago my constriction was not normal I was in deep pain still I was handling them with patience as Jamarion was already behaving like a possessive alpha. If it was possible humanly so he would have taken all my pain. Though I was in pain I still love this baby more than anyone. Now I know why mother's love their baby. He holds my hand as my contraction was getting quicker and trail kisses so that my mind distracts but it was next to impossible. I gripped his hand while inhaling the air and pushing the baby out.
"I'm the cause of this pain love" A tear fell from his eyes. I wiped it and said "Some pain is worth to bear" I said in cracking voice. He thought I was too fragile to bear this pain, but I was a girl sooner or later I have too. He gently griped my face a pain was clear in his dark eyes a devasting hurt was clear on his face. He was wearing a perfectly calm mask, so it won't startled me as I was already in pain. He raked his fingers through my jet-black hairs so that I feel little bit comfortable.
"I can see the baby head, please baby just push try your best" The nurse said she was in her late fifties wearing professional dress in light pink color. Jamarion has called world's best doctor and nurse for delivery.
With the last push using all energy of my body I felt on the bed completely my whole body was drenched in sweat. I heard a crying sound "You are blessed with baby boy" Vandran said and ask Jamarion to cut the umbilical cord. With shaky hands he cut the umbilical cord making sure it won't hurt us. Vandran was here as she has drawn a big circle with vermillion, roses, honey, holy water and candles around the house so that no evil spirits enter while my delivery. She was continuously chanting some magical spell words.
She handed me my little love. He was the most adorable baby I have ever seen. He looked at me with his honey colored eyes adorably that I forget all the pain which I was bearing from last two hours. His chubby cheeks and pink lips make him cuter.
"Jayden" I mumbled, and he giggled snuggling into my chest I find it adorable.
"You completed my family, I love you both more than anything. All mine" His pained expression and dimly lit eyes were now shining with happiness. My heart constricts in my chest by looking at my baby's beautiful eyes. He was copy of his father except the eyes. Thank god his eyes were normal in color it means the curse has not affected him and he was a human.
"MINE you both are mine I will protect you both" I can see his possessive side was overcoming him as his liquid golden eyes were soft completely hypnotizing me and then he kissed me softly in front of everyone and my cheeks redden. Jayden giggled at his action.
