Ghost Ores

Agreement

Yashshauna's POV

The party ended and everyone went home. My house was once again occupied by my child, myself and my husband.

"Do your father enjoy telling lies about me?", I asked my husband as we entered our bedroom.

"Let's not focus on my dad right now don't you miss me", he said.

"It would to easier to ignore him if it wasn't such a big lie. Why do he want people to think. I am carrying some high breed baby?", I asked.

"Because you are carrying some high breed baby?", he said.

"Impossible!!",

"Come here", he said as he pulled me to him....he started to rub my tummy and then he spoke again. "Hun you are pregnant, we can sense it. And this isn't just any pregnancy, it's a boy and not just any boy. A vampire, so that's why my dad is shouting it from the roof tops. He is getting another heir to his legacy."

"I just can't believe it, I don't look pregnant or feel pregnant", I said.

"Trust me, give it two weeks and take a pregnancy test and you will soon be a believer too", he said.

"Let's say I believe you. How are you able to sense it?", I asked

"Whenever a vampire of royal blood is implanted in utero. His or her mother acquires a persistent scent, noticeable to  other vampires and a few other supernaturals. It's like they are announcing they coming to the world.  Two distinct scents become noticeable; lavender means boys and a type of rosy scent you had earlier with Yashmin. Which mean girls", he said.

"So that's why, the Dijnn wanted me?", I asked

"What Dijnn?", he asked.

"The same one that told us of the attack on your family. He had captured Yashmin. Xena and I............",

"Wait the Dijnn kidnapped Yashmin and you didn't think you needed to call me", he said interrupting me. "And I am just hearing about this now", he said angrily.

"You weren't here, so I choose not to disturb you because Xena assured me. We could handle it", I said.

"If Xena ever assure you again, I'll throw her out. I promise you", he hissed loudly.

"Keep your voice down", I said to him in a hushed tone.

"Babe you are my whole world.  You my son and my daughter. I could not live a life with out you both", he said.

"I know,  I know", I said kissing his lips.

"There is something else the Dijnn spoke of that doesn't sit well with me", I said.

"What about?", he asked.

"He said my dad had a great secret, that would be my undoing. It makes me unsettled everytime I remember ", I said.

"Don't worry, whatever that is we will face it together. We are a team. Don't you forget that. Nothing is getting to you without going through me", he said.

Yashmin's POV
Phone rings

Lily: Hi Yashmin, great party.

Lilian:  indeed Lily it was fun.

Yashmin: Glad you enjoy it but before you all came. I learnt that I am betrothed.

Leona: Wait Yash, did you just say you were  betrothed. You must be indian.

Lily: she isn't and you sound stupid.

Lilian: why is she on this call? To whom?

Yashmin: guys you are my three bestest friends in the world,  I wanted to tell you all at the same time. Be kind to Leona.

Leona: I thought we were best friends.

Yashmin: Focus Lee Lee, I am to be marry to Maxwell when I come of age.

Lily: wait Maxwell. Girl I saw him, he is fine. Sound like a win to me.

Lilian: now you don't have to worry about how you are around him.

Leona: why don't I know who Maxwell is.

Yashmin: because he left before you arrive. You were a little late. Guys the point is. Did he know this while he was casually running his fingers along my cheek. Acting as if it was love at first side. Maxwell's an hypocrite.

"I am not, I didn't know I was betrothed to you either. And nobody said anything about love", I heard Maxwell said.

I turned around to see him sitting on my window sill.

"Guys I'll call you later", I said hanging up the phone.

"What are you doing here", I asked him. "I thought you went home with my grandparents."

"I will but I had to see you first", he said.
"I just found out tonight,  when I sat in that seat. I didn't know they intended for me to be married to you. And you can always decline. Nobody is forcing you", he said.

I stayed slient and it wasn't that I didn't like him. I just felt like he hid important information from me but now it doesn't even sound as if he likes me.

"Look you are just 16 years old. I am just 17. You are a child and they are expecting us to behave as such. You are not expected to married me until you are legally an adult", he said. "Just enjoy your teen years. Date and have fun. I don't expect you not to and when it's our time. It's our time. Ok??", he asked with his hand stretched out.

"Ok", I responded as I took his hand and shake it.

Again I began blushing and as it did ever so often. I was in ghost form and glowing.

"I love it when you do this", he said smiling as he ran his hand from my cheeks to my lips. Barely just brushing against my skin. Sending shivers down my spine.

"I......I", I said struggling to respond.

"I know", he said. "I must go", he said as he jumped through my bedroom window.

I felt better, I didn't felt betrayed or used.
I started to remove my dress and went to stand infront of my bedroom mirror.

I was astonished at my appearance. My skin was now smooth and blemish free. My lips a rosy pink. I looked so much like grandma in the sense of beauty. I always thought I was beautiful but since I became a fully matured vampire. It was as if I had a make over and was now perfection.
The world was being so kind. I thought to myself. I had what every teenage girl wanted. Perfect skin, perfect lips and a pretty face.

Nothing could ruin this moment. I  know for sure my life was about to be easier from this moment on.
