Volturi's Heart [Elite Guard]

Chapter 9 'miracle baby'

~Raven's POV~
It's been three weeks since Preston told me that my newest addition was safe in his incubator. Everyday now, I have been coming to his office and just sitting with the machine. He lets me of course, he didn't want to stop me. For an hour I would sit on a stool next to my baby. For the first week, I just sat there staring at my baby, the second I began to talk to her or him. At week three, I started to read stories in case she or he could hear me. Preston said it wasn't possible, I felt different.
When my hour was done, I wished Preston a good day before walking back to my room. When I was about to open my door, I was caught by Jane.

"Hi." I said, monotone.

"Hi. Wanna talk about it?" She replied.

"If I do, I'll start to cry." I said as she let me inside. When I walked towards the bed, I saw Demetri and Alec making funny faces at Sarah and Ellie while Felix took perfect pictures.

"It's okay to talk about it, Raven. We won't judge you if you want to talk." Jane replies as she pulls me into a hug.

"My love, Jane is right." Demetri says as the rest of of them looked at me while my girls played.

"I'm conflicted." I whimpered before I stared to sob. "I feel like I abandoned that child. My heart hurts every time I even think about her or him and that is all the time. I now it's almost been a month, but I can't stop having this feeling. Why do I feel this way?" Then, I was engulfed in a loving hug.

"Beautiful, we do not judge you for these feelings. You became a young mother in a way that no one should go through, even though the outcome was a pure miracle. Both you and the girls survived. To anyone who cares, that is the only part that really matters." Felix says.

"Felix is right, love. I wish you'd given me permission so the four of us could torture that bastard who touched and hurt you. Even though you told us no and said that when you found out that you were drugged and raped, he didn't deserve to be punished. I still wanted too, but dropped it since my main focus was you." Demetri replies.

"We understand that you were scared when you found out about this baby. No one would blame you, hell, we were scared when we found out you were pregnant. But, we cared more about your safety instead, instead of worrying about your thoughts of the baby."Alec says.

Nodding my head, I enjoyed the hug before I was placed on the bed. Spending the rest of the day being love smothered by my mates, was the best day of my life.
But as night started to roll on by, I couldn't help but worry about the baby. As I finish feeding Sarah and Ellie, they were snatched from me and held by Alec and Jane while Felix and Demetri would cuddle me.

"Something's bothering you, love." Demetri says, snapping me from my thoughts. "And don't you deny it, I don't need to be a mind reader to see it."

"I just..." I sigh, unable to find my words.

Feeling frustrated, I let out an upset groan as I flung out of bed then rushed out the door. I ignored my mates trying to talk to me as I went straight for Preston's office.

"Ms. Raven, is everything alright?" Preston asks.

"I want to see my baby." I answered as I went to the room.

Feeling my breathing hasten, I kneel in front of the incubator as I was surrounded by people.

"What happened? I thought you five were cuddling in Raven's room?" I hear Caius ask.

"We were until she started to get upset about the baby." I hear Alec answer.

"I wonder what caused her to become distraught?" I hear Marcus ask as I held my head in my hands.
