Vampire Doctor

The next day was a drag. I couldn't get the dream I had last night out of my head. Our daughter was beautiful. Her name was Maria, After Ezio's mother. She had purple eyes just like I did, but she had her fathers looks. She called me mommy. I ran my hand towards my stomach. I could no longer feel frightened about this child. Maybe the elders meant the child would be Ezio's saviour. A knock on my door knocked me out of my daydream.

I opened the door to find a woman, not much older than I was, waiting on me. "Isabelle?" She asked me. I nodded and she walked inside. "I'm Hazel. I'm the castles pregnancy doctor." My mouth dropped. "This isn't possible, Dr. Hazel." She looked over me. "My dear, you live in a realm of Vampires. Anything is possible. You are not the only human living in this realm that needs assistance with pregnancy. This is the first vampire and human pregnancy I have came across. It's not the only one ever, but it's close." I sighed, reeling in her words. I was glad to know I wasn't the only one, but I was worried what would happen to me.

When the doctor finished checking over me, she told me that I could no longer eat just human food. "There are old stories about a previous human, whom was impregnated by a vampire. She couldn't eat other foods, unless she drank blood. You don't require it, the baby does. Her father is Vampire, a royal at that." I couldn't drink blood! I bet it tastes terrible! "Try it out dear, I guarantee you will be able to keep everything down!"

I called Ezio, he was there in seconds. "What is it?" He was fast, I loved that! "Ezio, can you tell the kitchen staff to bring me some blood?" He questionably looked at me, about to refuse until I cut him off. "Dr. Hazel told me the baby needed it, since her father is a Vampire. There was as person whom was just like me. Pregnant by a vampire, Dr. Hazel told me that drinking blood was the only way she could keep anything down." Ezio nodded and left.

When Ezio returned he carried a take out Styrofoam cup with a straw. He placed it in my hand. "Well, here we go." I didn't want to smell it. I just took a small sip. It was metallic, but it was sweet. Ezio just stared at me in confusion. My stomach, that was queasy was now feeling a lot better. My lips weren't cracked anymore and I had color in my face again. "Well? How is it?" Ezio asked me. He was worried. "Its- good." I smiled and sucked more of it down. The cup, that was full was now empty.

"Can I have some dinner now? Maybe even another glass of that?" Ezio bursted out with laughter. "Of course!" He exclaimed. He called in a servant and told them to fetch me dinner and to bring my cup back with A positive blood. "I had a dream last night Ezio." My confession shocked us both. He stared at me waiting for me to continue. "I know the gender of the baby, because the dream I had was a vision of her waking me calling me mommy. You walked into the room and she ran to you, calling you daddy, you called her your sweet little Maria. We named her after your mother." Ezio fixed his gaze on the floor. "She was beautiful Ezio, she looked just like you, but she had big purple eyes."

The servant knocked on the door and Ezio opened it. The servant rolled in the tray. It smelled amazing! I opened the top to reveal pork chops, with a loaded baked potato and a salad. Along with it was my a positive blood, for my unborn child. Ezio dismissed the servant and she left after taking a quick bow. I dug into my food and for the first time, I kept everything down. It was delicious. After I finished the blood, Ezio moved the tray to the door and sat beside me. "Isabelle, I think we should get married." I was completely shocked. "What? Why?" He knew this would end badly, but he continued. "Because, you are carrying my child. If you don't marry me then the child wouldn't be an heir to my thrown."

I couldn't speak. All I could do was stare at the floor. I knew that sooner or later something like this would happen. In my visions we looked so happy. With our daughter at our side, we conquered all together. I also knew, whatever choices I made would affect my future. We were married in my visions. I wore a crown, with different rings all over my fingers. I was called his queen.

That night, Ezio left to attend some sort of royal function. He didn't give me any details, just that he would be back later. I laid in bed caressing my baby bump. I remembered a saying my mother use to tell me.

You are my light, through all of the darkness. You are my sunshine, when the sun no longer appears. You are my salvation, when I wish to cause destruction.

I missed her terribly. I wish she were here, so I could enjoy my pregnancy with her. Instead, I had Ezio. He was great, but he was not my mom. I laid there for hours, and finally fell asleep.

How about that chapter?! Ezio now wants to marry Isabelle! Do you think it's because he loves her? Or is it because he wants a legitimate heir to his thrown? I guess we will find out! Stay tuned! (:
