The Princess of darkness

Reunited

Vanessa's POV
It was dark, it always had been. There was no heaven for me yet, it was not my time. So I was forced to wonder between life and dead. Ever so often I got the chance to contact with one person from the land of the living... my mind drives off to Ethan and Claire. Gosh how I miss them. I need to try, try to go back.
I try standing up, that worked. I feel a cold breath on the back of my neck.
And a dark voice began to speek to me, a voice that I knew all too well.
"Soon my child... very soon I will have you on my side again. I wanted to bring you back myself but I See the work has been cut out for me... See you soon, Beloved...".

I ran and ran but I had no clue towards what.
I saw light and started running towards it. And then Ethan stood there in front of the white light, holding his hand to me. I took his hand and everything went blank.

I opened my eyes to awake at the worried face of Ethan looking at me. His eyes full of love.
"Vanessa? Vanessa can you hear me?" I could not quite figure out who this voice belonged to, later on I realised it was Victor. I try to speak but I can't find my voice So I decide to nod in respond. I wanted to sit, I wanted to walk, I wanted to jump in Ethan's arms and never let go. Forget about everything bad and focus on the things we could have together. I dreamed of him once. Well actually more than once but one time it was as if it could be reality. There is so much I need to tell him. There was a reason why I didn't want to be alone after we defeated the witches. I loved him and much had happend since he had been gone. First I need to get my strength back then I will talk with Him, explain everything.
Victor had a spare bed where I could sleep. Ethan wanted to stay with me that night. I got Some old clothes from Lilly , Victor's cousin. When I was settled in the bed, Ethan pulled of his clothes leaving only his pants on. He pulled away the sheets and got confortable next to me. Wrapping his arms arms around me. I could feel the heat of his body throug my clothing. It made me realise I wanted him even more. Tommorow I would tell him everything.
"Goodnight Van." His voice was warm and soothing.
"Goodnight Ethan, I love you, you do know that don't you?"
"Of course darlin', I love you too".
I fell asleep as he kissed my cheeck and shoulders, his steady breath against my skin. His nose burried in my hair. I wished this night would never end.

The next morning I woke up first. I couldn't help to look at Ethan. He was sleeping so peacefully.
A few moments later he woke up. Looking at me as if he hadn't seen me in years.
"Ethan I need to tell you something..."
"What is It van?"
"Do you remember that one day in the Moors...?"

Ethan's pov
Of course I did, What kind of question was that. How could I ever Forget. It was the first time we were intimate with each other.
"Of course I do"
"Well Ethan... I got pregnant there... And I had the baby a few months after you left. I didn't know at first. I knew It a few days after you left. Her name is Claire, after my mother but I decided to give her up. It hurt too much, knowing you are the father and not being around. "

Did I hear that name correctly. The reality of being a father didn't come to me yet. All I knew is that I loved Vanessa and sharing this with her, even if I wasn't the father, was better then I could have hoped for. I loved Clair as my own, and now that I knew she was that feeling grew stronger.

"Vanessa... I don't know what to say... I love you, I believe Clair is in our house. We can meet her when you are ready.

Vanessa nodded her head and I embraced her once more, holding on to a ring in my back pocket...
