The liquid filled my stomach uncomfortably, but then suddenly I realized I was starving and wanted more.  Alexandre raced from the room and returned with a second cup before I could even ask.  I felt a weird sensation in my lower abdomen and grabbed Alexandre's hand.

"I think the baby's moving."  I whispered as the rolling came again.  Alexandre sighed in relief.

"Don't let it get this bad again, ok?"  He asked me, and I nodded.

"I really didn't feel all that hungry."  I offered.

"Just, don't wait anymore, you should be eating regularly, ok?"  Alexandre took my face between his hands and kissed me gently.  I begrudgingly acquiesced.  He insisted on me staying by his side for the rest of the day to keep an eye on me, and it was only then I realized how truly busy he had become.  He was turning one large bathroom into a birthing suite, which I thought was hilarious, but he'd thought of everything, from a large round tub that could be used for a water birth to a delivery bed he'd had mailed in and various other paraphernalia.  I looked at him out of the corner of my eye and rubbed my stomach lightly.  Torture equipment, the lot of it.  He babbled about the features of the bed allowing a multi-birthing position for the comfort and safety of mother and child, and I left the room quickly.  I knew it was coming, and I would need to face it down soon, but jeez.  He was also apparently car shopping and received several phone calls about availability and pricing.  He told me he was looking for something safe for the baby, and I began to feel overwhelmed.

A shipment of medical equipment came in, IV tubing, needles, the like.  I blanched and backed off quickly when I saw it.  He said they were just a precaution, but I was still thinking about my past more than anything.  Then the cops came to the door with questions, eyeing my growing baby bump, which apparently they had yet to be informed about, they soon begged an apology and left.  I guess whatever war they thought we were prepping for with all the deliver trucks was put out of their minds by a new baby.  People are weird.

By the end of it all, I was thoroughly exhausted and fell asleep on Alexandre's couch.  He carried me to bed, pulling my shoes off and tucking me in as I was and I was unconscious before he kissed me goodnight.

I dreamed of tons of baby snakes chasing me, that all turned out to be IV lines, and somewhere in the the background a baby wailed that I couldn't find, just the empty cradle.

I jolted awake to Alexandre smoothing my hair and murmuring to me.  My heart was pounding erratically and I felt the strange rolling sensation in my midriff again.  I put a hand there subconsciously and Alexandre covered it with his own.

"I think she's reacting to the nightmare.  Your heart is beating so fast, it must have alarmed her.  And you tried sleepwalking on me again.  I had to hold you back."  Alexandre rubbed my arms where I could see the fading imprint of his fingers.  I must have struggled hard against him.

"Did I...hurt you?"  I asked nervously.

"No, no.  Within a few minutes you stopped fighting and just sort of moaned and thrashed about.  I just held on to you and tried to comfort you since you wouldn't wake up.  Are you ok?"  He answered

"I'm...fine...I guess."  I replied and relaxed back into is arms.  But my heart-rate didn't slow and neither did the uncomfortable flopping in my womb.

"I think I know a way to calm you down."  Whispered Alexandre and he kissed my neck.  My breathing caught.

"Uh, I don't think that'll work..."  I answered as he kissed me again and nibbled at the space where my shoulder and neck met.  My heart-rate didn't stabilize, but it took on a different rhythm.  "Umm, Alexandre..."  He nipped me at my pulse to shut me up and I gasped, arching back into him.  The baby began to settle.  Alexandre rolled me over onto my back and hovered over me, tracing my collarbone, throat, lips and jaw with his lips.  Then he moved on to my uncomfortably sensitive breasts.  "Alexandre!"  I scolded.

"The baby has settled."  He pointed out.

"Yeah, but I haven't."  I squirmed uncomfortably.

"I could fix that for you."  Alexandre said mischievously, running a hand down my inner thigh.

"Normally I'd take you up on that, but I don't want to disturb the baby."  I replied primly.  Alexandre growled and his hand inched back upwards abruptly.

"Of course they do say that exercise is good for pregnant women."  I gasped and tapped a finger to my chin.  Alexandre growled harder and pulled me closer to him by the legs.  I squealed.  "But I could also use the extra rest."  I continued with a fake yawn and pout.

"Succubus tease."  Alexandre snarled, crouching over me.

"Incubus fiend."  I retorted and slid my leg suggestively up his body.

"Carys...  He warned.  "What do you want, yes or no?"  I sat up and leaned closer to him.

"To tease you."  I responded in a whisper and he let loose a snarling roar that sent shivers down my back, and in an instant he had moved us to the edge of the bed.

"This is your last chance to back out."  He snarled.  In reply, I removed my top slowly, watching as his eyes grew wilder while I drew out the process.  He didn't wait for the lower articles of clothing, but ripped them apart himself.  In the next instant his bare skin was against mine, and he was wrapping my legs around his hips.

"I can't promise to hold back by much."  He said.

"Don't."  I responded, wrapping my fingers in his hair, and he pulled away for an instant before bringing our bodies together harshly, making me cry out and dig my nails into his scalp.  I tightened my legs around his waist trying to draw him in closer, my back arched and as he moved us faster my cries of pleasure only made him more wild.  When he did release me, I was certain it was going to take a while to recover and I laughed lightly, my muscles still trembling and weak.  Alexandre watched me with concern.

"Are you ok?"  He asked quietly.

"Never better."  I replied, tracing circles over our little bump.  To believe we had created this thing...

"Are you sure?  He asked with worry.

"Yeah, chill.  The orgasm shook me up for a bit, but we're all good.  In fact, I'm actually feeling better than I have in a few days.  Though I might have trouble standing for the next few hours."  I giggled.  There was a soft thump from inside the mound between my hips.  "I can't tell if our little one approves or disapproves of the activities though."  I giggled again.  Alexandre laid a gentle hand on my stomach.

"Well, I hope she approves, because I can't go another five months without touching you."  He replied softly and placed a gentle kiss on my torso.

"She doesn't have a choice."  I growled and toppled Alexandre to straddle him, kissing him fiercely before laying my head on his chest with a deep sigh.  "I love you Alexandre."

"Eternally."  He replied, running his fingers lightly up and down my back.  Within seconds I began to drift off and Alexandre let me sleep, only readjusting our positions sometime after I was dead to the world.

"Mmm, I love waking up in your arms."  I whispered to Alexandre before opening my eyes.  My growing bump had begun to put a little space between us and chose that moment to remind me of its existence too.  "Yipes..."  I hissed as the baby knocked at my bladder.

"I felt that from over here."  Alexandre chuckled and I looked up to see his eyes twinkling at me.  At the sound of his voice, the baby kicked again as if excited.

"Goddamn vampire, charming women left and right, even unborn ones.  Look at you, already got our daughter wrapped around your finger."  I griped.  Alexandre chuckled again and placed a hand on the side of my stomach.  There was another soft movement.

"Shh now little one, you're making your momma jealous."  He crooned.  Another gentle kick and I rolled my eyes.

"Incubus."  I complained.  He just chuckled and kissed me.

"I really have to get up though, she kicked my bladder and unless you wanna change the sheets..."  Alexandre released me with a laugh and I fled to the bathroom.  When I came out I heard Alexandre on the phone.  Curious, I followed the sound of his voice and he looked up swiftly as I entered, holding up a finger.  He asked the person on the other end if they could wait one second.

"They found a way to track her."  He said.
