Dawn 'till Dusk

Part 25 - Such pain.

Weeks later, everything had turned to normal. I was even being accepted by almost everyone. It was the twenty third of October, the vampires hadn’t rebuilt their army, but they were still lurking around. We were always on alert, because we never knew when they would strike. We were still working closely together with Alpha Clark and their pack. We had a lot of fun together when he would come by, sadly the reports stayed the same. Today we had work to do again, Christopher’s work never seemed to end. It was a monday, I had been here about a month and I still liked being here as much as the first day. I would visit my grandmother several times and call my mother too. I opened my eyes, still being in bed.
‘Good morning Muffin,’ Christopher whispered.
‘Good morning Chris,’ I whispered back.
‘I love when you say that, especially when you’re moaning it,’ he said, reminiscing about the previous night.
‘I still love when you call me Muffin,’ I answered, kissing him passionately.
When we broke free, he looked me in the eyes lovingly. He got out of bed and put on his clothes. My stomach started to hurt, I curled up in a ball and groaned.
‘What’s wrong darling?’ Christopher asked.
He smelled the air and looked at me wide eyed.
‘Oh Muffin, you are in heat,’ he said.
I bit my lip, looking at him longingly.
‘Please, make the hurting go away,’ I pleaded.
‘Don’t worry darling,’ he promised.
He pulled off his t-shirt and grabbed a condom.
‘I thought you said..’ I muttered.
‘Only when you’re not in heat. If I make love to you now without, we will get a baby,’ he said.
Christopher took away my pain, in the only way he could.

Some time later, I was on my way to look for Angel, I needed a mother, someone who would understand. She was in the kitchen with Tom.
‘Tom, will you please leave us?’ I asked.
The boy ran from the kitchen immediately, closing the door behind him.
‘What’s wrong?’ Angel asked me.
‘It’s all so new to me, this is my first.. my first.. ehm.. heat.. while being mated,’ I whispered.
‘Oh dear, does Christopher know already?’ she asked, looking at my stomach.
‘Yes, he relieved my pain, will it come back soon? He’s working. My body feels strange, like I’m not complete, like.. ehm.. I want him..’ I muttered.
‘It’ll come back in several hours, different every time. You will have the desire to be with him the entire week, but you get used to it in time,’ she told me.
‘I’m scared,’ I whispered.
It had really hurt me, when he had left the bed some time ago.
‘Don’t worry, Christopher is here for you. This too is the period to conceive children, have you talked about that yet?’ she asked hopeful.
‘Not yet, my mother would kill Christopher,’ I said, laughing a little.
‘It’ll come in time,’ she said.
I nodded, in a comfortable silence we cleaned the kitchen, making lunch for everyone. I had missed breakfast, but I wasn’t really hungry for food.
‘Are you alright?’ Christopher asked me, just after we ate lunch.
We were in his office, I sat next to him, holding his hand tight.
‘I am right now, but I’m scared of the pain. I don’t want it to return,’ I whispered.
‘Don’t worry, as soon as your pain starts again, we’ll deal with that,’ he said, winking at me.
‘Thank you sweety,’ I whispered.
He went to work and I read my book, holding his thigh gently with my hand.

The next few days went the same, he would cater to my needs, every single time the pain and longing would start. The younger boys, who hadn’t a mate yet, swarmed around me, just because of my smell. They hardly knew what was happening, so Christopher would keep me in the office or our room, which were the places I felt most comfortable as well.
