Her Legacy (A Her Prophecy Novel)

Hormones

After breakfast, we began talking about setting up a room connected to our current room so the baby wouldn't be too far from us, we planned all the supplies needed, set up the floor plan for the nursery, and we set up many and I mean many doctors appointments.

Of course, a lecture was given about being safe and then dad started talking about how mom reacted to finding out she was pregnant with me but we soon dropped it when I started getting upset wanting my mother to be here with me so she could guide me through the whole process of pregnancy, and getting married.

We ended breakfast with planning out the nursery and being informed that I would only carry for 7 months since the baby was part demon. Which I had to admit I was eager about I would meet my baby sooner, Josh kept drawing small circles on my stomach and my back, he had a very large grin on his face, his face was going to get stuck like that I even mentioned it to him all he did was laugh "yes Mom" I elbowed his side and continued talking with dad about the wedding.

My eyes became heavy as we finished talking and planning, the clock read 3 p.m. Josh must have caught on because he excused us and helped me stand as we went back to the room. I quickly changed out of my jeans into some shorts and climbed into bed, I pulled the covers over me and felt the bed dip as Josh pecked my cheek "I'll be back I'm going to go train" I nodded my head and whispered "I love you" before drifting off into sleep.

Hearing the door shut I rolled over and saw Josh enter the room the room with a huff he saw me looking at him and smiled as he walked over sitting on the bed "How you feeling?" he cupped my cheek "Fine, how was training?" he shrugged his shoulders "would have been better if you were there" I smiled "I don't think I'll be able to train for a while" I emphasized by rubbing my flat stomach.

Josh nodded his head and walked into the bathroom to take a shower I sat up and stretched hearing my joints pop I stood up and grabbed some sweatpants, and sat down on the couch grabbing one of the books from the coffee table. Leaning back, I relaxed as I soon was engaged in the story.

'As her world grew darker as her heart beat slowed to a small pitter patter her eyes found her mother's saddened gaze, she opened to her mouth to speak as her last words fought to escape her tightening throat "I'm sorry mom it was all my fault" a single tear escaped as she finished her final words and closed her eyes to the never ending darkness of death' I closed the book and wiped the tears away I don't know why I was crying but I felt really sad I soon began balling.

A loud bang echoed through the room but I couldn't stop my sobbing I felt strong arms wrap around me "Alex what's wrong are you okay?" Josh yelled looking around the room for a reason for my crying, I shook my head "no it's not okay she died!" I sobbed "Who died Alex tell me" he placed his hand on my stomach "is the baby okay" he begged I nodded my head "it's not the baby it's April she drank the poison and died" I wailed and pointed to the book.

Josh's eyebrows furrowed together he grabbed the book and opened it to the bookmark and read a small paragraph he sighed and leaned back "ugh it's a book" I wailed louder "it isn't just a book it is a story of life and death" Josh sighed and picked me up placing me on his lap as he leaned back on the couch, "it's okay calm down, do you need anything" I shook my head "no... except maybe a pickle peanut butter sandwich" I gripped Josh's shirt tightly he laughed and tried placing me on the couch but I wrapped myself around him "don't leave me" I whimpered "Do you want someone to bring you it?" I shook my head "no I want you to make it" I pulled myself closer to Josh.

Josh stood with me clinging to him for dear life "fine but you need to walk" I shook my head "carry me" Josh huffed and placed me in his arms carrying me bridal style. I pulled myself closer to Josh and placed my head against his neck and inhaled his scent slightly kissing it "Hey! Hey! I thought you were hungry?"

I whispered "I am but I love your scent" kissing his neck again I was suddenly pulled away from him I opened my eyes and saw Josh holding me out straight I whimpered and tried pulling myself closer but Josh kept he away "Nope not until your feed" I huffed and crossed my arms but smiled when we entered the kitchen Josh placed me on the counter and started making me my sandwich, I couldn't help but stare at his muscles flexing under his tight black shirt I felt my stomach do flips as I watched him move around the kitchen. I continued to stare even when Josh turned around and handed me the sandwich, kissing his lips I pulled away and ate the sandwich scarfing it down.

"Pregnancy hormones" Josh huffed and leaned on the counter in front of me finishing my sandwich I climbed off the counter and hugged Josh "thank you" I mumbled against Josh's shirt. I pulled him close and relaxed into his strong arms I leaned close to kiss him when the kitchen door opened to a warrior demon standing there.

I growled "Leave!" he quickly left before I was ableto throw something "Oh man, hormones" Josh huffed I turned to him angry but Isoon felt tears falling down my cheeks I began wailing again Josh huffed andpicked me up as he brought us back to our room and placed me on the bed withhim wrapping his arms around me "I love you so much" I whispered and kissed hischeek "I love you too" Josh grunted and rubbed his face.
