The Love Of A Heartless Man

Chapter 8: New life

(Sorry this took so long to get here)

*a few months later*

Mina is healthy and I've taken up hunting to help keep us fed, she is happy but in pain from carrying our child. Yet she couldn't be happier if I was the richest man in the whole world. I had left for hunting a couple of hours ago and I was headed back with my bounty as I hummed and thought to myself "I wonder what my love has been doing while I was gone, she was asleep when I left but I'm sure she woke up not long ago" I smiled and chuckles softly "knowing her she's playing with that kitten that comes around every each day about now and she's most likely getting into those little pastries she loves and thinks I don't know she has" I kept walking towards home as my thoughts ran wild.

*Mina's pov*

She woke from her sleep and stood slowly as she rested her hand on her stomach "good evening my little..." She giggled as she wondered what her child would be and a little scratch was heard at the door "hmm, oh my little friend is here!" She went to the door and opened it as a little golden haired, blue eyed kitten walked in. She smiled as she set down a little platter with milk and a small bowl of water "I've missed you my friend... I think I'll call you" she sighed and huffed "I'm not sure what to call you.... Oh I know I'll call you vlady" she couldn't resist laughing as she when to her secret hiding place for her treats. She reached behind a painting and pulled out a small box of strawberry tarts that she absolutely loved."Good thing that he doesn't know about these" she ate them happily as she saw the light of the sunset through the window at the front of the house and stepped outside to watch it go down....

*Vlad's pov*

I walked to the edge of the woods as I looked up and saw the sun was about to set "I better hurry up and get back, Mina's probably waiting for me" I looked at the sun's color change from gold to a beautiful mixture of reds, purple, oranges and blues. "Wow, sometimes nature is truly a work if art on its own isn't it" I used as I turned and saw Mina standing in the doorway eating her pastries as I let out a sift chuckle "busted", I created up to the house and peaked around the corner then walked out "hello my darling" she panicked and almost dropped her treat and shouted "aaaggh... Don't do that, you know I scare easy" I chuckled as I kissed her cheek softly "I'm sorry Mina, I couldn't help myself... Oh, You have some strawberry on your face" I carried my hunt to the our shed as I looked back seeing her quickly clean her face. "I knew I'd catch her one of these days" I chuckled and walked inside to see her eating another tart and smiling "you have such a sweet tooth my love" I stood behind her and gently rubbed her shoulders, "Vlad you spoil me" she untensed and looked up at me and smiled, I leaned down and kissed her lips softly "I don't have enough words in my body to describe how much I love you my queen" we kissed with such passion it was as if time itself froze so we could have this one moment between us I could feel every detail of her lips, I felt the imperfections and the softest of them I felt the slight smile she had as we were connected by this one point, as I drew away I watched the lines and colors of her face... The light pinks and tans and rosy red color of her cheeks and the smoothness of her perfect skin. But what's always drawn me in were her eyes that gleaned like perfect diamonds and that glowed with the intensity of the sun itself. We smiled at each other as I went off to prepare our meal and all I could think about was her and everything she stood for in my life "I am the luckiest man in the whole world to have her by my side"... I continued cooking our meal and got Mina fed and helped her to bed, we laid in bed and held each other as our eyelids grew heavy and we dozed off as I whispered to her "goodnight my queen, may your dreams be filled with love and care... I love you Mina, I will always love you"
