“Come back to me… please come back.” Seth grunted desperately after just biting on the side of your neck, he then grabs your wrist and bite on the inner side. “Please come back to me.” he repeated, on the verge of tears.
Forty-one weeks ago, you found out to be pregnant, with Seth’s baby. Seth, your husband, Is a vampire. He was born in 1425, and he’s now 600 years old precisely. He came from a pure-blood family of vampires, and he really lived inside a castle like in the movies. Then time changed, the Black Death in the 1600s, the French Revolution in the 1789, where he met in person Napoleon Bonaparte and fought with him. The European Revolutions in the 1848, the First World War in the 1914 where he fought there too, the Second World War where, obviously, he fought.
He hid his true nature all his life, for not scare humans. It’s an ability to make red eyes of a vampire, black, or blue, whatever color you want. The fangs? You can hide them without problems, they will grow only when very hungry, or very angry. Seth made every experience a person could have in this world, and he loved every decade he lived in. Expect for the Wars, obviously. He met women, humans, other vampires, made friends during his path, he had his own dark times, like when he lost control of his hunger, and became an assassin of humans. He couldn’t control himself, he had to drink blood, more and more.
But now, in the present day, he met you. An human woman, stubborn, feisty, confident, full of energy, a ball of fire. No men could disrespecting her, she wouldn’t allow that. She was determined to be successful in her life, and she did. She became a model at only 17 years old, and now, at 25, she’s one of the most payed model of the modern days. She’s humble, she grew up in poverty, her family just left traumas on her. And Seth, even after 600 years of life, even after all the women he’s been with, he fell completely for this human.
How could he, a pure blood vampire, fall this hard for a human? He didn’t know, he just knew that he loved her more than his immortal life. After all, he was also used to women who threw themselves in his arms, being a vampire, makes him extremely attractive. But no, he had to work hard for get her, and for finally slip on her finger a ring of ten carats. He then told you his secret, his life, his true being, and you… you accepted it. You didn’t run, you didn’t scream, you loved him, vampire or not.
And then, few years after the marriage, you found out to be pregnant, and you had to stay forced to bed nine whole months. It was a vampire fetus, and Seth’s genes are extremely strong. The baby would have been half-vampire and half-human, and It was just perfect. Of course, his family didn’t forgive him for marry an human, not mention having a baby with one. But he didn’t care. He stayed by your side every moment you needed, every cramp, every kick of the baby. The pregnancy drained all your energy, and then you gave birth to a baby boy, but the childbirth was too hard, too tiring for your fragile, vulnerable human body.
Your heart stopped beating, and Seth’s vampire five sense, that are much more stronger than humans’, heard It stop. The world collapsed, and without thinking he started biting you, all over your body, desperate to make you like him: a vampire. After about, twenty bites on your body, he steps back, now… he can only wait the vampire poison to take effect. It will take few hours, and then he’ll need to feed you with human blood from the blood bags, and It won’t be easy. He’s sure. You will fight back for not drink the blood, you loved being an human, with all Its pros and cons.
He slumps down on a sofa in the bedroom, but then he hears it again: your heartbeat. He sighs shakily in relief, tears spilling his eyes. He needs to wait, just wait. He glances over at the baby boy inside the crib, sleeping peacefully. That baby… Is half him, and half you. Half-vampire, half-human. His little miracle.
