*One Month Later*

*Avan's P.O.V.*

There is no question. My life has changed. For the better? Or for the worse? I don't know. If someone know's I wish they would tell me. I sit in mine and Harry's room staring out the window. I can see her. Her beautiful brown curls wrapping around her petite little face as she runs away from Liam who is slowly chasing her. Her smile brightens as she looks up at Liam who catches her and picks her up in his arms as she giggles furiously.

Harry catches up to them and takes Gracie into his arms and holds her to the heaven's spinning her in circles, and I can't help but let a smile sneak across my face. My little girl. She's so beautiful. I love her so much. But, I can't get close to her. I can't hug her. I can't give her a kiss goodnight for fear I might harm her. A single tear escapes my eye.

It's time for me to be around Gracie again I can feel it. Deep in my heart I know that I love Gracie far to much to harm her in any way. I quickly stand up, but I double over in pain. I gasp as I fall to my hands and knee's holding my abdomen. I pant quickly for breath. In a few seconds it's over and I stand up again sweating. I do my best to walk over to the door when the chain around my ankle stops me halfway.

I'm not even close to the door. The chain hurts. It burns the skin from my body every time I yank at it. Harry has soaked the steel in holy water for weeks. Every afternoon he comes into the room and pours more on it as I scream in pain. Truthfully I think Harry is upset with me. He had bought Gracie a puppy a few days ago needless to say it wandered up the stairs and into my room. But, I couldn't help myself. I was so overwhelmed with thirst. I wander back over to the window to see Gracie wandering towards the road. Alone.

"Gracie." I said tapping on the window. She keeps walking, a truck is just a mere 100 yards away. "Gracie!" I scream tapping furiously on the window. "DARCY!!!!" I scream so loud I shatter the window with my fist. I yank my foot free from the chain ripping skin and tissue from the bone, but I jump out the window, and in seconds I am scooping Gracie into my arms and I'm holding her close.

I collapse to my knee's hugging her. "Gracie. Gracie." I sob into her shoulder. "Gracie you should've listened to mommy. You could have gotten hurt." I sob in her ear. In a mere two minutes I am letting go of her and collapsing on the ground just as Harry arrives at my side. I scream out in pain holding my abdomen.

"Avan what the fuck are you doing?!" Harry screams standing over me. "What the hell were you thinking?! Leading Gracie to the road?! Are you fucking insane?!" he shouts spitting in my face. But, I can't breathe to many things are happening at once. I gasp for air even though I don't need it. It's a comforting reaction to have. I can't breathe so therefore I cannot speak as Harry towers over me shouting at my 5'5 frame with his 6'1. I try to roll over to my side when Gemma realises what's happening.

"Oh, Harry!" Gemma said running to my side. "Harry something's wrong Avan is in labor! She can't go into labor the baby is only 6 months!"  Gemma screamed as I locked eyes with Gracie as Niall was carrying her back to the house. But, what Harry does next is unexpected. He bends down to whisper in my ear so that no one else can hear him.

"It's nice to see you again Avan. I've missed you. I'm delighted to see you've made a full recovery and your doing well on your pregnancy. After all I am looking forward to seeing my son." Harry said with an evil laugh though it wasn't Harry it was Jefferson......

Just then Harry turns around to follow Niall to the house. Niall has Gracie. Just as I am about to scream another contraction kicks me onto my hands and knees. Gemma, Zayn, Louis, and Liam all carefully pick me up and speed me towards the house. I'm screaming and sweating as they carry me upstairs to the bed room. They lay me down on the bed and I grab hold of Liam's collar.

"Harry. It's not him. It's- Jefferson. Save Gracie!" I spat at him. Just then Harry enters the room with Gracie.

"Is she going to be alright?" he asked innocently.

"I think so she is going into labor is she okay Gemma?" Louis asked Gemma frantically.

"No she is not! She is only 6 months the baby isn't fully developed! I doubt it even has lungs yet!" Gemma screeched rubbing my forehead to calm me down.

"Oh how wise you are Gemma." Harry said handing Gracie to Justin who just appeared in the door way.

"Get her Li." I spat as another contraction curled me into a ball.

Liam charged Harry, but Jefferson was inside Harry's body and was much to fast. He grabbed the back of Liam's neck knocking him head first into the wall and then repeatedly beat him in the face. everyone screamed out, but as they moved forward to try to help Justin raised his hand to Gracie's fragile neck extending his horrid claws.

"I wouldn't if I were you." he said his voice even, but my vision was stationed on Liam who was kneeling in front of Jefferson now his face bloodied as he panted heavily. He squirmed in Jefferson/Harry's grip. I cried out of pain and sadness.

"Gemma sweet heart. Your going to have to help deliver the child like the good little truffle you are." Jefferson spat. "After all everyone knows a Fallen Angel child only stays in the womb for 6 months."

************* 5 Hours Later *****************

I laid there in pain. Tears swelled in my eyes. I held my beautiful child. His beautiful brown eyes stared back at me. His sleek black hair clung to his head as he cried. My baby boy. My beautiful son. I had no idea why I loved him so much, but I also loathed him with every ounce of hate I could muster from my bones.

"I want to n-name him. I-I w-want to name him L-Luke." I spat at Jefferson. He walked over and sat on the edge of the bed. He was no longer in Harry's body. He tied him and the lads up in holy water ropes. They squirmed sheepishly in the corner as Gemma sobbed in fear next to me.

"Why would you ask to name something that doesn't even belong to you?" he asked looking at the baby in my arms.

"How could you say that. He is just as much a part of me as he is of you-you filthy rat!" I spat as I lied there all my muscles weakened as Jefferson took our son from my arms. I could hear my heart beating in my ears.  I could slowly feel my body healing after giving birth. The vampire healing process kicking into overdrive healing every crevice of my body making me stronger, healthier. I jumped from the bed onto Jefferson's back wrapping my right arm around his throat.

"Give him to me!" I screamed before Justin grabbed me and hauled me onto the floor. I screamed biting him everywhere I could. But then before I knew it my instinct took over and I found myself searching for Gracie. She was huddled in the corner tied next to Harry. Harry looked mad. enraged even. He struggled against the ropes Gemma was desperately trying to untangle. But every time she touched them a puff of smoke would appear, the holy water burning off the tips of her fingers.

She screamed as her bloodied fingers untied the ropes that bound him. Finally one more knot and he was free...
