The Nightmare

Moments after I shut my eyes, getting ready to fall asleep, I had this nightmare that was for sure a sign

My mother

Ever since she's been sending me these threats, I've been paranoid for me and my child's safety

In the nightmare, there was fire everywhere, especially in a home which I assumed was both me and Erik's home. There I was carrying my newborn with such care until my mother came upon us and took my child away from me. With all my strength and force I attempted to take hold of my newborn but I did not succeed at it. My mother kicked me down and ordered the guards to 'kill me'.

And my nightmare ended with that..

There is no way I will ever let my mother anywhere near my child when it is born.

I will keep my child safe....

***Eight Months Later..***



Erik's P.O.V.

With only four more weeks until (Y/N)'s due day is here, we both scatter around the mansion and make sure all sofas and beds are made.

Her friend was originally supposed to come in February of next year from her trip to America, but since she heard that (Y/N) was to give labor in January, she ordered a trip back.

Now she is coming in late December.

As I walked the halls filled with holiday decorations, I spotted (Y/N) in the library room reading tales to her developing child

"Enjoying the book?" I question her as she shares a warm smile with me

"The baby is kicking!" (Y/N) waved her hands at me meaning to come over to her

"Magnificent...." Amazement took over me and all I could do now is be proud of (Y/N) and myself for being able to accomplish this heart warming goal in life

"Erik, if it's a boy, what will he name him?" She questioned while rubbing her belly lightly, admiring her over grown stomach

"Gustavè. We shall name him Gustavè." I wrapped my arms around (Y/N)'s soft soothing skin

"And if it's a girl, I want to name her Elizabeth" She declared while holding her glance at Erik

"Very well. It is settled"

"Just imagine when our newborn joins us into this world" (Y/N) gushed as she rubbed her belly once more, feeling a small kick

"I'm so close to my due date" She smiled softly but soon the smile had turned into a horrified frown

"Erik... I cannot hold it in anymore.."

My heart stopped in its traces.
Curiosity took over me, wanting to know what (Y/N) had to tell me

"My mother.... She.. She sent me letters" She blurted out as she twiddled her fingers nervously

"(Y/N), why didn't you tell me-" She interrupted me talking more harshly almost as if I continued with my sentence, she would have broken down into endless tears

"I COULD'NT! NOT AFTER I ALMOST LOST YOU!" Her voice trembled until it caught my attention that she was tearing up

(Y/N) stormed off to our chamber to return with letters that were stamped with a signature

"She sent me these. They're..." She trailed off before continuing "...They're threats"

"(Y/N), you know this is dangerous! Your carrying a child inside of you, for gods sake!" " Feeling broken that she couldn't tell me, I begin to pace as anxiety hits me

"Erik, I was afraid! I was afraid that you would try to get revenge! I'm afraid I'm losing you..." The sadness in her voice was very noticeable. All I could do is feel bad for her

"(Y/N)...." Walking up to her fearful body, I pull her into an embrace in hopes that she will feel alright

"Erik, what will we do?" (Y/N) questioned with a dull expression

"We have to make sure we tell Judith once she arrives. Perhaps she will hire a few guards to protect you" I mention as I wipe away (Y/N)'s tears

"But she doesn't come back until two weeks. What if my mother strikes us? She's probably planning something as we speak!" (Y/N) breaks down into tears as she holds on to me for support


"Calm down, (Y/N). I'm here... No one will harm you"  I caressed her cheek as she yawned, hearing her shaky breathes

"Tired?"  I asked (Y/N) as I carried her bridal-style in my arms

"mhm" She hummed as I chuckled at her reaction.

"Alright" I whispered into her ear, making her tremble at the hint of my voice

I carried her into our bedroom and placed her down gently on our king sized bed

"How I wish holding you like this... Once you have our child, oh the things I will do to you" I smirked and gave her a mischievous grin


"Erik!" (Y/N) giggled and punched my shoulder lightly in a jokingly matter

"Sweet dreams, my beloved.."
