I know the look on Morgana's face. I have seen it many times before. What she is about to say next will not be news that will be welcomed.So I pull my beloved deep into the depths of my chest, "My beloved, we shall overcome whatever it may be."After a few moments of uncomfortable silence, Morgana continues to speak, "Both shall not survive.""What do you mean that both shall not survive?""Upon birth, either mother or child shall perish," Morgana takes my beloved's hand into hers and whispers softly. "I am so sorry, my dear Anastasia."Now, if I did not know the power that Morgana possesses, then I would have taken my wrath and destroyed all that is in my path, so instead, I calmly speak again, "Is this part of the prophecy?""No, my dear Sebastian. Not both bodies can survive during childbirth. You need to understand that a powerful Vampire is born, your beloved's body might not be able to sustain.""But what if it is a human child

There is a great fear on the face of my beloved. The very words of the Doctor send a tremor through my body. We have been told by Morgana that there shall be difficulty with the child, but does the Doctor bring the same news as what Morgana told. Do I even ask?So I refrain from saying a word at the very moment and wait for the Doctor to speak."Sebastian, now I do understand that both Anastasia and you are Vampires, and by all truths, Anastasia should not be able to bear a child. Now what you also know is that a Vampire's body, as I understand, is frozen in time."With a brief moment, a smile appears on my broken face; his knowledge of our kind is rather intriguing, but that is not a question to ask at the current moment, so I only but nod and speak, "You are indeed correct that our bodies should be frozen in time.""And," he adds, "The organs that make you tick forward inside your body should in fact not perform. Now, something must have happened when A

Leaving Anastasia this morning is most definitely one of the hardest things that I have yet done. But I need to find that one thing, that is, if it even exists, that shall put her under a deep sleep. Where? That I do not know.So Edward and I are finding our way back over to Morgana. Now I have not told Anastasia where I am set to go. Yes, I am building trust on lies again, but she cannot know of my intention, for I know that she shall not approve. I have told her that we will be away on council business and that I was not quite certain on how long it would take.Now I do hope that this shall be easy for we are running out of time. She shall, as per this Doctor, which I still fully do not trust, she shall be going into labor in less than five days. It can be four; it can be two. I am hoping that it shall be five.We have snuck out under silence while she was bathing and have just taken to the long road that shall take us back to Morgana. Edward has kept himself

There is a loud bang, then a deafening scream.Panic sets over my body.Has the Belmont House come under attack? What great force as laid siege over my home?It is with short, little stuttering breaths that Breyden speaks through the phone, "Sebastian, something has happened upstairs. I need to go.""Breyden! Wait! Is it Anastasia?"He hesitates for a few brief moments and need not even have to answer. My entire body feels like it has been struck stiff and thrown into an abyss. Has Anastasia gone into labor?I understand that she shall scream, but what was that loud bang for?I need to get back home; I cannot wait here for this man to return.So with absolute haste, I make my way back over to where Edward has taken a seat, but just as I am about to sit down, I get a call from Breyden.I immediately drop down into a panic next to Edward, "Breyden, what is the matter? Has Anastasia gone into labor?""Sebastian, she

I look into the eyes of my beloved. What stares back at me is not her soft blue eyes, but instead, bottomless black holes. There is an evil on her face that stretches her smile far beyond of what her face is capable of holding.I have, much to my own disgust, kissed some ungodly creature, and it is not my beloved. Well, yes, it is the body of my beloved, but it has been possessed by some greater evil. What, that I truly do not know. But we shall soon find out as the boys step inside the room.The immediate reaction of my beloved is a clear look of terror. She, or should I say this evil, must know who the Windchaser boys and even dear old Bobby are.So I step back from Anastasia, where she is clinging to the box with great force, and I join Breyden by his side. Now, I do not care how this plays out; all I need is for my baby to be protected. But then, Breyden, much to my annoyance, needs to remind me of one simple fact."Sebastian, we do not know if that i
