Forbidden Sweets

Chapter 12

Months have gone by and it was time for the baby to come. Lelia and Black couldn't think of a name. Although Lelia did favor the name, Daxton. The couple resolved to wait till the baby was born, before home hunting.

By now, Lelia's huge pregnant belly made it difficult to even put her clothes on. Because of this, she began to wear gowns to make it much easier.

One evening, Lelia was in the kitchen wobbling pass things. Black had commented that it was a good look for her. In return, Lelia stuck out her tongue at him

Even though, she didn't go long in this pregnancy like a human would. It still was agonizing. When she felt the pain, she called for Black and instantly he was by her side.

"It's time." Lelia whispered out.

Black guided her into the bedroom and carefully laid her down.

Lelia pushed, and screamed as she worked on bringing their baby into the world. As the baby comes out, the world shakes and Black witnesses this occurrence. He loved it, and soon his new utopia will be set in motion. Everything he truly desired was now here.

Lelia hears the cries from her infant child and grimaces at the sound. She watched her love scoop their newborn up after cleaning the baby and bundling it in a soft blanket.

Lelia eyed Black's smile as he sooth the child and gave it a smile. The perfect memory to forever keep.

As Black celebrates in his mind, he peeks down to realize the lifelessness of his love. The darkness of sorrow fills within him.

"NOOO!" He yelled out.

Black looked at his son, the old him would destroy this thing, but he couldn't bring himself to do that. This little being was part of him. 

Unexpectedly, the baby illuminated a teal color. Then, the infant threw a punch at him, which Black dodge from it.

'Oh yes! This baby will be the new utopia. It will begin with him.' Black thought to himself.

Black glanced down at Lelia's lifeless body, his Enchantress, his love. He wouldn't let her miss out on this! He knew exactly what to do and that was to find all the dragon balls and wished her life back.

Unfortunately, Black had to go back to those fatuous mortals' world. In order to find the dragon balls to make the wish.

However, Black hoped he didn't have to wait a year before making his wish.

"It's worth the wait," he told his son.

Black formed a power aura over his love to preserve her body. Black's full attention was on their son, Daxton as he spoke the following.

"Soon, my son! She will be with us, once again!"

He didn't realize how much he missed waking up close to her. The first night without Lelia's touch was painful. To the smallest most annoying thing she ever did of recollection, made Black crave her existence even more.

The gathering of the dragon balls was a quicker process than expected. Within this time, Black trained the boy to be a mighty warrior, which started in life as mere babe. Nonetheless, he wanted to make sure the boy was ready for his mother's return.

Lelia had told him while she was carrying the baby that it might grow faster than humans. Turns out, she was correct. At seven months of age, the boy looks as if he was seven years old.

Lelia mentioned that when the baby reached a year old, the rapidly growing spurts would dissolve and the other DNA would take over. Black had to hand it to Lelia's research. Once, she commenced on something she didn't give up. He concluded as he read through her past notes that were in her handwriting. In her print, "human characteristics" was  darkened and circled multiple times. Black had wondered about this note.
