《Her Final High [C.Cullen]》3. (BD)
Advertisement
Destiny woke up agin without her period. She was actually starting to become worried. It's never been this late. Early, yes. Late, not really.
Her head turned towards her nightstand and she grabbed the note that rested there.
At work. Esme should join you later.
~Carlisle C.
She smiled at his beautiful handwriting. It was like something out of an olden storybook. The font was perfectly suited for him.
She groaned as she began cramping. Her body tensed automatically as she turned over.
"I hate cramps." The human groaned sinking into the pilow.
-----
After an hour of self pity for her pain, she got up and skipped down the steps. Esme sat patiently on the couch waiting for her. It made Destiny yelp from surprise.
"Good morning." She greeted the vampire making her snap out of her thoughts.
"Yes, I wanted to talk to you."
"About...?" Destiny trailed off sitting next to her.
"Carlisle. He wanted me to talk to you about children." The human groaned at her words.
"Why me?" She whined.
Esme giggled, "Well, I'm not the one that requested this. Carlisle wanted me to talk to you, girl to girl."
Destiny blushed squirming, "It's kinda hard because you're his ex."
"Trust me. I won't tell him anything and I won't judge."
Destiny looked at her taking a deep breath, "I want a child with him."
Esme didn't seem that surprised from her statement. "You know that he can't give you one."
"I'm aware. I'm fully aware. I just can't stop thinking and dreaming about it. Everyone around me except you guys will have kids eventually."
Esme smiled, "I see kids every weekday. I can see the appeal of wanting to raise one. I, myself, was pregnant at one point."
Desting could feel the darkness looming around Esme, "What happened?"
"He died. Lung fever was a serious problem back then." Her eyes stared forward at nothing in particular like she was looking back into the past.
"I'm so sorry." Destiny whispered holding her.
"It's fine. I've come to terms." She leaned on the human.
"Maybe babies aren't all it's cracked up to be..." Destiny whispered curling up.
"Oh, Sweetie. I didn't mean to discourage you." Esme said quickly uncovering her face.
"It's fine, Carlisle doesn't want children anyway." Esme's eyebrow shot up.
"Who told you that?"
"Carlisle." Destiny's head tilted when Esme's shoulders began to shake with laughter.
"He's such a liar." She giggled almost falling off the couch.
"What?"

"Carlisle definitely wants children. He's just come to terms that he can't have any by normal means an he doesn't want a child to be put in danger."
"Oh..." Destiny felt her face grow hot in embarrassment that she didn't realize. The baby would be in constant danger if it hurt itself.
"No need to be embarassed. Baby fever can block logic. They're adorable and you'd love to watch a part of yourself grow up and learn." Esme explained Destiny's exact thoughts.
"Yea, I'm going to go to Charlie's. I heard he got a girlfriend." Destiny changed the subject.
"I believe that I will go shopping with Rosalie. She wanted to buy a new lingerie set." Esme explained walking towards the patio door.
"Tell Rose I said hi and that I love her." Destiny called. Her newly dyed brown hair bounced as she nodded leaving.
The human sighed finally alone again before checking everything to see if they're locked. She finished by locking the patio door. She knew Carlisle had a key and wasted no time locking the front door on her way out.
She was in a causal sundress as she walked out to her BMW. She glanced towards the silver Volvo that gotten her for her birthday.
Destiny sighed and unlocked the Volvo. She wanted to drive it at least once.
She hopped in and was instantly comforted by Carlisle's scent. She turned it on and it rumbled to life at a low purr.
"I may just enjoy this car more than I should." Destiny whispered looking back at her poor BMW
She backed out and began driving towards Forks.
-------
"Charlie!" Destiny squeal flopping on the sleeping man.
"Dest- You're gonna give this old man a heart attack." He groaned.
"Sorry, Charlie. I was excited to see you." She hugged him.
"You, too. Has Bella called?" Charlie asked.
"Not yet. They've destroyed that poor bedroom." Destiny said shaking her head. Charlie covered his ears.
"Don't need to hear or imagine that." Charlie said in disgust.
Destiny made herself comfortable drinking some coffee.
Suddenly, a pretty copper skinned woman came from upstairs. "Oh, you must be Destiny."
"And you must be Sue. Charlie never stops talking about you." Destiny said with a smile. The woman smiled in return.
"I'll leave you two to catch up. I'm gonna cook the trout in the cooler." She said before respectfully taking her leave.
"Nice meeting you! How have you been, Charlie."
"Good. You?"
"Fine." She yawned.
"You seem tired." Charlie commented.

"I'm fi..." Destiny sucked in a breath as her vision began fading out. Her ears rung violently. She could hear a thump and crash.
"Dynasty!" She could hear Charlie's voice before she came back into her body. Her eyes opened and light flooded in.
"Woah. That was..." She shook the ringing from her head and noticed that she was looking at everything from a different perspective.
"Are you alright?" He asked supporting her head.
"Yea, totally." She turned to look at Charlie, who was looking a bit paler than usual. "What happened?"
"I'm calling the hospital." Charlie announced.
"Why?"
"You just completely blacked out on me. I'm not letting you drive home."
She groaned, "Fine."
Carlisle dialed 911 and Destiny tuned him out.
Sue watched from the kitchen in shock before walking over and helping Destiny up.
Why had she blacked out?
-------
When she was taken by the ambulance, they asked Charlie a bunch a of questions while they checked her. She was requested to eat a granola bar and drink water.
"Feel any more dizziness?" The woman asked.
"A bit. I feel like I'm not in my body so it may be worse."
The woman giggled, "Reminds me of when I was pregnant."
Wait.
"What?" Destiny yelped.
"You didn't know? That's why you blacked out, Sweetie. Your blood pressure is low because of the baby." Destiny paled a few shades and a cold sweat traveled down her back. Her heart pounded furiously in her chest.
"Are you sure?" She asked.
The woman nodded with a smile, "You have a bump and your cheeks are darker. Not to mention- Ok! I got it." Destiny interrupted holding her face self consciously.
"Is she ok? Dr. Harris can check out the baby."
"Does everyone know?!" She screeched. Everyone in the ambulance looked at each other and she groaned. "I'll see myself out."
"Wait." The woman grabbed her arm, "At least get a check up. For the baby."
Destiny looked down squirming and nodded.
---------
The doctor's office was still as cold as she remembered. Destiny was terrified that Carlisle would find out and accuse her of cheating or something.
Her head laid on the bed and the doctor walked in.
"Miss. Harpool."
"It's actually Mrs. Cullen." She muttered looking around at the pictures on the wall.
"Congratulations on your marriage. You must be the lucky lady. Carlisle talks about you nonstop."
"I bet." She smiles a bit.
"Welcoming a little one, so soon?" He commented and she groaned again.
"Carlisle is supposed to be sterile. He told me so himself." Destiny explained.
"That explains all the adoptive children. He doesn't know if that's what your worried about." Dr. Harris stated.
"I-" She sighed pulling at her hair, "This is impossible."
"A miracle. You should be happy." Harris put a hand on her stomach before grabbing his clipboard. "This isn't standard so I can't do anything without your permission."
"I want to talk with Carlisle before I do anything." She stumbled from the bed and walked towards the door.
"He's in the lounge but at-" The door closed "-least get a pregnancy test first..." He sighed.
------
After a few minutes of walking around, Destiny asked the nurse to show her where the lounge was.
"I can't take you in but I can get someone out if you need them."
"Yes, please. Can you get Dr. Cullen for me?"
The nurse gasped, "You're his wife?"
Destiny nodded shyly and the nurse quickly walked inside.
The blonde waited outside rocking on her heels until Carlisle came out.
"What are you doing here?" He asked ruffling her hair. She jolted making her heart beat increase exponentially.
"I- I have something to tell you." Carlisle held his mate caressing her cheeks.
"What is it?"
"Carlisle, I think I might be... Pregnant." She muttered lowly knowing he could hear her.
"This again, Destiny. It's impossible." He sighed.
"Carlisle, I'm not joking. Not joking in the slightest. 3 doctors just told me that I'm growing a bump and I haven't had my period." Destiny explained in a pleading voice.
Carlisle's eyes widened when he realized that she was serious. "We can talk when I get home."
"No. Carlisle... Take off, please. I'm so scared." Destiny teared up.
The vampire sighed running a hand through her hair and pulling her close, "Ok. Are you hungry?"
She nodded, "Charlie called the ambulance for me."
"What happened?" He asked in concern as he began pulling off his sterilized gear.
"I blacked out." She sat at his desk as he called the rest of his patients to cancel their appointments.
They walked out of the hospital together. Carlisle carried her bridal style down the stairs.
"I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing?" He asked strapping her into his car.
"I dont know." She blushed as he kissed her.
"I'm not angry. I'm confused and worried." Carlisle kissed her again on the nose and she smiled.
"We're having a baby." She attempted to lighten the mood.
"Yes, possibly." He chuckled walking around to the driver side.
They closed their doors and Carlisle began driving.

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.

Dust and Glory
A century after World War III left the planet a nuclear wasteland, earth is nearly unrecognizable. Alien ‘Benefactors’ have taken control of North America’s most populous cities and built indomitable walls around them, defending their inhabitants but trapping them under a totalitarian rule.

Alone and reeling from the effects of a previously sheltered life, her only ray of hope is Reza City, built upon the ruins of what used to be Phoenix, Arizona. True, the Benefactors have a strict ban on self-aware artificial intelligence in place, but that should only prove an issue if they realize she’s an AI. The real problem is what lurks outside the city: over a million square miles of harsh, unyielding desert. And slinking between the dunes and the fissures are the mutants, looking for an easy victim.
