Recollected Memories // Kuroken

Chapter 11

Kenma's POV

The harsh coldness hit my skin. White light pierced my vision. Voices, that ran quietly. I heard some sort of a machine beeping to the side.

"All pulses?...."

"Stable"

I opened my eyes to calming pheromones being released by a man in front of me. Noticing my movement, they halted my analysis.

The familiarity of this place hit me hard and cold as I realized where I was. The lab room. The place where I had once visited so often to get injected with those fluids that took away my emotion and memories. That immediately led to my body tensing up.

The other, noticing my distress, released more calming pheromones. Weird. They were being unusually pleasant to me.

But for some reason, my body stayed this way. I was overprotective of myself in general. Really weird.

The two figures looked at me in a complicated way as if they were hesitant about telling me something. It was way too obvious. Something was wrong.

At last, the man spoke up, breaking the awkward silence that lasted way too long.

"How are you feeling?"

The lamest question to ever ask.

I didn't respond.

The other coughed awkwardly and walked up towards me, I backed into the wall.

"Ha... I actually don't really know how to deal with such a situation like yours but let me just cut to the chase about your current condition." His expression was now somewhat pitiful.

The other beside him and cut the conversation.

"If you gather up the data that we have collected... symptoms...-"

My hearing drifted along the line but the more I thought about it, the realization gradually came to me.

"...You are pregnant"

...

Shit... what have I done. Fuck.

The two men continued to blabber on about things while I just sat there cursing at myself. The memories of that night suddenly came to me as I realized what was happening.

It was Kuro. I'm carrying Kuro's baby. The more I thought, the more I hated myself for everything leading me to this.

I could've just ignored him from the start. Why, why did I let my feelings run ahead of logistics.

But soon enough, my omega instincts finally kicked up within me. What are they going to do with me? My baby... Fuck I hate these instincts.

"-normally, in cases like this, you would've been taken care of..." he stopped for a second as I growled at these words.

"However..." He quickly corrected.

"the higher ups said that you were a prized possession thus you are to be kept alive as well as your young." A wave of relief swept through me as I clasped over at my abdomen, Thank goodness... but the realization came to me soon enough. What was... their compensation from me for them keeping me alive?

"-and thus you will be moved into a separate block to the others, for then you will be quarantined for the remaining pregnancy."

What? I wouldn't be allowed to leave this place? And they will be observing my every move... I should've known that all this keeping alive thing was too good. But At least I could live... and look after this child of mine. And Kuro, and mother, they would be safe from all this hell-

"Please.." The man gestured. I was snapped out of my thoughts.

"I will lead the way"

Slowly, I shifted my numb body off the white medical bed stopping for a moment to adjust my senses. Good, nothing's been affected yet. I simply clung on to the hope that they had not ejected something beforehand.

The hallways felt cold and dark as my body continuously shrouded in anxiety. Are those the so called motherly instincts? Interesting.

I felt alarmed with every step before approaching 'coincidentally' with someone I had least hoped to meet.

Once again, his distorted pig-like face appeared within my vision. Just ignore him. He'll just walk by, I'm sure he will. Words that meant nothing as he smirked in the ugliest way possible with that fat face of his before heading my way.

Silently cursing, I've been doing a lot of that one this day, I fixed my posture and expression before nearing the despicable man.

"I heard you are conceived." his chubby hands ran down my chin, I shivered at every touch fighting the temptation to cover my stomach otherwise he would have enjoyed tormenting me even more.

"I wish you all the best'' his voice did not sound sincere at all, more like he had something behind it. Just spit it out already.

"I will be observing you every day to ensure that no harm is in your way." That was the dumbest excuse he could ever say. The man himself was probably weak enough for me to kill in seconds.

I continued moving forwards towards where I was led, hoping that the man would just leave after getting tired following my pace. I didn't want to hear any of the words coming out of his mouth until the last sentence stopped me in my tracks.

"-I will take good care of your child."

The words that I have dreaded. What the fuck will he do to my child? My mental and physical state plunged into fear of what he might do to them and me in the future.

The group fell into silence as I unconsciously followed the small group down a staircase. This was all wrong. I have to find a way... to protect myself... and the baby within me...

'Clack'

The sound of a door opening echoed across the eerily pristine hallway.

"You may enter." the man leading the way suddenly spoke up making my eyes flinch.

"And I'll take my leave." the obese face left me one last smug grin before turning around and walking off into the distance.

It's ok, I'll find a way. Sort things out. It's all gonna turn out fine. I seem to have a talent for saying empty words.

I took one last shaky breath before entering through the heavy metal doors.
