Morbid Love

Chapter 15

The day came and went and before I knew it I soon heard a knock at my door before it was opened by Dr Carlan. I was couldn't look her in the eye knowing she had been keeping a huge important secret from me for so long, especially since I thought we had gotten quite close to the point I almost would have called her a friend.

"It's time to go" she said softly.

I had dressed in leggings again and another baggy top as it was my usual these days, it's not like I was given a decked out wardrobe.

She held out a pair of socks and some sneakers and I quitely put them on while I saw her putting more socks in a draw.

I walked to the door too scared to step out. She then placed her hand on my upper arm and led me out slowly as we started down a big hallway, on one side was doors like mine but on the other was just a row of huge windows looking out to what I thought could be a courtyard as I saw a few people walking around or relaxing which I found strange.

I guess I didn't ever think about people being here and actually enjoying themselves but my guess is their a vampire so this is their home.

As we walked I noticed most of this place was either white, black or and shade of grey. All the common areas seemed to be painted white I'm guessing to make the place feel larger even though it didn't need the illusion, it was huge.

We made out was to an elevator at the end of the hall and she pressed the button for the basement.

"I thought we were going to the hospital?" I said with no emotion just confusion.

" We have a royal medical wing on the whole basement floor" she stated. "Look petal... I'm sorry I couldn't tell you, he ordered me not too and if I did it would have been good for me" at least she apologised I thought " but he's your brother he wouldn't harm you, surely?" I said back not fully believing her story.

"I'm surprised you picked up on that, I thought he wouldn't be capable of doing something like that either but considering I've seen what he's done to you anything's possible, he's changed" she looked down sadness evident on her face.

The elevator dinged and opened into a busy open front area with a reception and people bussing all around. Dr Carlan kept her hand softly on my arm as she moved us down one of the hallways and into a smaller room with no one in it.

It had quite a few big pieces of equipment that I hadn't ever seen before and a medical bed with a few chairs beside it.

"Alright if you want to hop up onto the bed and lay back" she said. I did as told and she moved to adjust the bed so I was a bit more upright and could look at the little tv screen that was off to the side. She had rolled one of the bigger pieces of equipment over to me.

"I'm going to lift up your shirt if you can shimmy down the leggings so they're right to your hips and we can get started on having a look at this little baby, how does that sound?" I could hear the enthusiasm in her voice I guess she was going to be an aunty after all and by what marlock said that doesn't happen very often if ever.

A few moments later I was feeling quite exposed when marlock entered the room and I looked up a bit shocked to see him and he looked at me with a smirk.

"Think I'm that heartless to not come see my child for the first time?" I gulped and just turned away from him keeping my eyes on the tv screen.

Dr Carlan then put some jell on my stomach and grabbed what looked to be a wand thing that was connected to the big piece of equipment and started gliding it round the bottom of my stomach until she found something.

A heart beat.

And then we could see it as she moved it round a bit more. The baby looked like a little jellybean but with limbs. I couldn't believe that was in there, in me.

"That's odd" she muttered.

"What is it?" Marlocks voice full of authority but his face full of worry as we both looked at her now.

"Nothing bad! It's just the baby looks bigger than I'd expect for 7 weeks you actually look about 8 and a half weeks"
