《Vampire's mate》20

(A/N: I noticed I sometimes call Baron-Byron. So from now on this both his names until I will be able to edit this book. Okay? Thank you )

I wake up in a dark dirty cell. I am resting my head against the wall, trying to sit as comfortable as possible. Making sure my baby is alright.

I just hope Gregori finds me before I go into labor. I have been here for 48hours at the least.

I guess all of you are super confused what is happening right now. Let me explain.

48hours ago

I wake up in Gregori's embrace. Last nights actions come into my mind and a faint blush taints my cheeks.

I somehow wiggle out of his hands, without waking him up. He looks so peaceful and handsome. I know he has been overworking himself this last couple months. And he has been trying to shelter me from worries.

I slowly make my way to the bathroom. My big swollen stomach not helping in my speed of moving.

With last glance at Gregori I softly close the bathroom door and do my business. No one ever told me that pregnancy makes you go pee every 10 minutes.

And yes although I am beyond happy I am with child, I can't wait to go in labor. I feel like a whale, my skin is stretched to the point it's uncomfortable and I have mood swings every few minutes.

I choose a simple yellow dress. With long sleves. Sure I could do more fancy, but gowns and pregnancy don't go along well. I was arranging my hair, when I hear door being burst open. I go quickly look who it is.

I see Byron standing there frantically explaining Gregori that castle is under intrusion. He also says Ekaterina is already in safe hiding.

"Treasure, go to nursery room. Lock the doors. You should be safe there." Gregori tells me, his hands on both sides of my face. Suddenly he lets me go, and rushes towards nightstand. Out of the drawer he pulls a dagger. "Keep it with you in case something happens." He kisses me and pushes me into nursery.

"I love you, please be safe love." I say to him. And then do as Gregori told me. I locked the doors and closed the windows. Gregori putted special windows in our baby's room. When closed, no one from outside can come in. Not with shooting, not with anything.

I heard some furniture being moved. I suppose Gregori pulled a closet in front of the door. That was in our emergency plan.

•••

I have been pacing around this goddamn room for hours. I have my dagger saved in my dress. If anyone would come I dont want them to know I have one.

Finally I heard some rustling in our room. But I stay quiet. It seems like they are throwing things around. Next thing I know there are five man running into nursery. And I know none of them belongs to King's guard.

The real question is how did they get here so easily. Our bedroom is the hardest room to find in this castle.

"King will be pleased." One says and grabs me. King? Who are they following? Who is this so called King?

Now before you say why didn't I use this dagger. There are 5 guys with swords here. And I am just one pregnant woman. I need to think about my baby.

They take me outside of the castle and we disappear into the woods.

"Gregori my love, please find me." I let into his mind, then shut off quickly. Before someone would notice.

I feel a sharp object hit me. And that is the last thing I remember.

Present

"I see you are awake again." Familiar voice tells me and without even looking at it, I know who it is. Till now only guards brought me some food. I wasn't interacting with anyone.

Gregori's dad.

"Look at your King when he speaks to you!" Another familiar voice exclaims. This time I look up in confusion. Yes Gregori's dad and uncle are working together.

"Gregori is my King." I say calmly.

"You bitch." His uncle spats.

"Why am I here?"

"I told Gregori that I don't want you as Queen. So I just needed you out of the picture. Right now I am sure he is being entertained by many beautiful ladies I sent to the palace, playing damsels in distress. He will forget you in no time." His father says coldly.

I stay silent. I know this is not the truth, Gregori is nothing like his father. He doesn't go whoring around.

"And what do you plan to do with me? I will go into labor soon." I put my hands protectively over my belly.

"You have two options. Disappear and never return. Not here, not to your family. Or die. You and your child. You have till tomorrow to decide."

I turn away, not wanting to talk with them any longer. I know they have been put some drugs in my meals. I feel drowsy all the time. Not fully conscious. And I am not able to communicate with Gregori.

Why eat then you ask? My body and baby still need nutritions.

I guess I have less then 12hours. To either escape. Or make a decision. Thankfully I still have my dagger.

And by now I learned what times guards switch. My cell is alone for precisely 8minutes.

But with my pregnancy this may be hard to do.

At least I can try right?

•••

I patiently wait till midnight, pretending to be asleep. So they won't think anything is suspicious. When a bell goes off, I know guards will switch.

I wait so they disappear and use dagger to hack a padlock. I do it quickly thanks to my dad and Kai. They thought me how to do it.

I walk barefoot so there isn't any echoes in this dirty cells. Then I maneuver through it slowly, hiding when I hear some voices and begging all Gods not to be found. I hear a lot of commotion and I slightly start to panic.

Suddenly someone brings hand over my mouth and pulls me towards them. I try to trash against them. But when I hear the most sweet voice whispers in my ear I relax.

"Shh Treasure. You are fine. We are fine. Let's get you out of here."

We both here some distant yelling but its not in English: Вы идиоты! Найдите её! (You idiots! Find her!). I suppose that is Russian (A/N: it is russian).

And Gregori and so many other man switfly moved us out of it. Everything was a blur. All I know is that I was focusing on Gregori's voice and the fact that my water broke.

I am in labor.
