DROW | ATEEZ

Little Heart

She holds her breath by his unexpected explanation to each one of the tattoos there were burned into his soft skin. She gulped hard as she sat up to get eye contact with him and spoke, "but.. why?" He sighed and turned his head aside to avoid her innocent gaze, "I'm an Drow, this is only one of the punishments we gets for killing and break hearts apart and ruin families.. each one of the tattoos is a symbol of all our sins." He spoke in an low whispering voice as he were too ashamed to speak loud about it and didn't dared to look at her.

"Do you regret any of your bad doings?" She asked, while looking at him. He sighed and sat up as well, leaning back against the wall behind him and looked up at the ceiling, searching for the right words. He didn't wished to lie nor tell her the painful truth, "yes.. and no.." he gulped hard as he knew that she might hate him for his answer, "why wouldn't you regret killing?" He peeked back at her and shrugged his shoulders, "I guess it's because of who I am.. I do not feel that kind of empathy for those whom I target as my victims and I doesn't care how violent I might get, I'll kill until I get blood of the innocent on my hands." He looked down at his tattoos and slightly let his hand run over each one of them.
Y/n placed her hand above his, making him look up at her. His blood red eyes shone in the moonlight as he put his full attention back on her, "these might be the symbols of your sins and bad doings, but.." she lightly dragged his hand up to his chest, making him feel each beat of his heart pounding, "this is a symbol of love and life." He holds his breath as he looked down at his broad chest, "why?" He muttered as he continuously kept looking down at his large hand there covered one of his tattoos there spread across his chest.
Y/n cupped both his cheeks and lifted up his head, making him look back up at her, "deep inside you might be frightened, but each beat of your heart is a symbol of love and life.." she whispered as she leaned closer towards him, until her lips finally connected with his' once again.

After that day, the two of them slowly began to live like any other normal couple, even though Sylvar were an dark, dangerous creature that would kill every living being near him if he gets pissed or feeling jealousy or threatened, he is still a living being, himself, with a heart there isn't as dark and cold as all the 'good' might believe.

The days soon became to weeks, with every day there had passed, Y/n slowly began to feel uncomfortable and incredibly weak and dizzy. She rejected Sylvar each time he wanted to make love and she felt her emotions run away with her and mess up her mind, along with her constant urge to vomit and food.
Sylvar became more aware of her condition, but yet he is insecure of what might have caused her to suddenly act like this.
All the symptoms had made it clear for Y/n - she were carrying Sylvar's child.
She were happy to know that a new life were growing inside of her, yet she were afraid to tell Sylvar the news about her unexpected pregnancy, all the worse thoughts ran through her mind as she feared that he might leave her alone or become violent.
As she sat in her own thoughts on the bed on the first floor, she didn't noticed Sylvar's presence by the door as he had slightly opened the creaking door.
"My love? How are you feeling?" He asked as he looked over at her.
His voice had startled her as she were lost in her thoughts, she forced a smile upon her lips as she looked back up at him and spoke, "I'm fine.." tears build up in her eyes as she spoke every word in an silent, raspy tone. He became more suspicious and shook his head before he went over to sit by her side, "you won't get anywhere with lying.. now tell me, what is bothering you?" She tried to hold back her sobs as she were on the edge to break out in tears. She took a deep breath before she looked up at him. She wanted to tell him so badly, yet she were afraid of what his reaction might be..

Taking another deep breath, she spoke, "I'm.. I'm with child.." Sylvar raised an eyebrow as he were insecure of what he just heard, "w-what?" He stuttered, not sure what else to say.
"I'm pregnant.. with your child, Sylvar." He holds his breath as he became speechless. He knew for the fact that having a child won't do him any good, mostly because he were afraid of what he might do if he can't control his anger and frustration, but at the same time, he didn't wanted to become the same as his father, he didn't wanted to betray Y/n and leave her alone together with his child.
He forced a smile upon his lips and wrapped his arms around her small body and holds her tight, "do not cry my love, I will be by your side all the way, for now and all eternity."
He broke the hug and slowly placed his hand above her flat stomach, feeling the warmth from her body. He smiled as he looked at her stomach, unable to believe that a small child were growing inside her womb.
