Star Wars: Age of Destruction

Twenty-Six

Rey's POV:

"You what?!" Luke looks at me in disbelief and anger as I told him of my run in with Mae a few days ago. "I specifically told you to leave her alone. You've only nudged her farther into the dark side." Luke rubs a hand across his face before looking up at me. "You've really messed up by letting your emotions guide you." He shook his head, groaning softly. "I had a vision the other day. She's having another child." He sighs, causing me to sit up straighter. "She's what?!" Didn't I just take her third limb?

Luke chuckled after reading my thought. "I'm scared for this child. Maybe her child is chosen one to destroy The Force." He sighed, looking down. "I don't what chain of events you've set off." That last statement gets me.

What have I done?

Mae's POV:

Vader.

I'm closer to Vader?

I mean, guess Kylo's right. Vader lost all four limbs, I've lost three. But, closer to Vader. Does that mean I'm closer to going full dark side than I already was? Well damn. Now with this new baby girl on the way, I didn't really wanna be closer to going full dark side. Or close to going dark side at all for that matter. I just want a normal life with Kylo and our new daughter.

A knock on the bathroom door pulls me out my thoughts and I spin towards the door. "Yes?" "Mae, are you okay?" Kylo's voice comes through the door, almost worried. "Yeah! Just fine. I'll be out in a moment." His feet padded away, leaving me to my thoughts. I finish my nightly routine before leaving and going into our bedroom. Kylo catches my waist before I get to the bed and pulls me to his chest, rubbing my back. "I love you, beautiful." I smile, wrapping my arms around his waist, his arms around my shoulders. I lean into his embrace, only wanting to be with him and nothing else at this very moment. His kissed my head and slowly lead me to bed, bringing me onto his lap and holding me close. "I love you, and I don't want you to ever forget that." He whispered, kissing my temple. I smiled and hugged my arms around him.

Later that night I'm laying in Kylo's arms, my fingers running through his hair and I smile softly as his head rests on my chest. His fingers trace absentminded patterns on my stomach and I smile, rubbing his jaw with my other hand. He slowly looks up at me before pressing his lips to mine. His lips are still soft and delicate against mine. He pulls away, biting his lip softly. "I love you Mae." He whispers, rubbing the exposed skin of my hip. I shiver, my eyes fluttering closed. Suddenly, his lips are leaving a trail down my jaw, neck, and the little exposed skin of my chest. His fingers slowly lift off my shirt, his lips trailing past my bra and down my stomach. Once to my pantline, his head comes up, quickly smashing his lips into mine.
Soon were both bare and he's sent me into a world of pleasure.

After our eventful evening Kylo continues kissing my neck softly and I play with his hair. His lips begin lulling me to sleep. Before I know it, I'm dragged into a sea of sleep.

Kylo Ren's POV:

My fingers absently run through Mae's hair as she sleeps against my chest. I'm suddenly feeling sleepy, my eyes slowly closing. Sleep welcomes with open arms.

The next morning I'm already up and done showering by the time the light makes its way through the bedroom curtains. I walk back into Mae, leaning over and gently shaking her. Her eyes meet mine and I smile softly. "We're going back to the base today." I whisper, kissing her head. She slowly gets up and makes her way to the bathroom as I get dressed.
I go to make a quick breakfast for us so we won't have to go back on an empty stomach.

Once we've eaten she and I are dressed, helmets and all, we make our way back to the little ship we came here in. Strapped down I start the ship and leave the planet of Naboo behind for the First Order base. Mae sits in the copilot chair, helping when I need it.

I land in the hangar and walk out, Mae's hand in mine. Stormtroopers stare for a split second before going back to work. I lead her to the throne room where she took her seat upon her throne and I stood to her right.
Hux and the other officers filed in, asking Mae about the trip and such before getting right down to business. They discussed the new Starkiller base on the planet of Hoth that wouldn't be done for another year, the Resistances refusal to retaliate at and bases they've taken. Just war tactics and such. Before long I'm ushered out the room so Mae can have some time to talk to Hux about private things, only to be known to a general and leader.

I slowly walk to our residence, the Stormtroopers cowering slightly as they pass by. Once to the residence I slowly walk into the nursery to find it's been changed to a girls themed nursery. Mae must've told the sitter ahead of time so it would be done by the time we got home. Good call. I slowly inspect the nursery, taking in the pink and lace details. It's very girly, yet it fits what Mae would want for the baby.

I spin around hearing the door open. I see Mae slowly walk towards me. She lifts off her helmet, face tear streaked. "Hux said that only one of us can go to the new Starkiller base. The other needs to stay here, so if one base is blown up, one of us is still standing." Her voice began breaking again. "I don't want to rule anywhere without you by my side." She sniffles, her face hiding in my chest. I gently bring her close, rubbing her back. Then, I get a weird tingling feeling in my spine.

She's lying to me.
