"What's going on? I thought she said I was stable?" This couldn't be happening we were going to lose our child. he was too early to even have a chance at survival.
"It might not be labor contractions, they could just be Braxton Hicks," Mor said from one side of the bed. Rhysand was standing on the other holding my hand. "Madja won't be here for another hour. she said it was probably nothing, but she would try to be here sooner." Rhys had been unnervingly quiet.
I'm just scared but it'll be alright. He said trough the bond. he gave me a reassuring smile, or what looked like one. it turned out as more of a grimace with fear laced across his face. although I could tell he was trying his hardest to stay strong. There was a knock on the door. we left everyone else in the dark about what was going on except for that we had sent for Madja. Mor went to open the door. or at least tried to Madja just rushed in.
"What is it? what's wrong? I came as soon as I could."
"I was having contractions, and then I.... started to spot." She had a look of deep concern on her face.
"Let me check you out, my dear." I nodded in response. "How far away is each contraction?" she asked
"I think about every fifteen minutes." Rhys nodded in confirmation.
"The baby is coming."
I had tried to prepare my self for the inevitable, but I felt warm streaks falling down my face as she shook her head "I'll have to induce labor."
"Isn't there something we can do?"
"Im afraid not. but I need the go-ahead before I can start."
"There's no other way?" Rhys held my hand tighter.
"Im sorry."
"Do what you must," I said.

"It's a boy," she said placing his lifeless body in my arms. He was beautiful.
"I'll give you both a minute," she said and walked out.
"He looks like you." he did indeed. He had Rhysands skin and hair with my facial features. he was beautiful. perfect. but not all perfect things last.
"I'm sorry darling." I knew he meant it. this was his child too, the baby meant just as much to him. "We'll get through it together."
"I know, but it still hurts" he pulled me into a soft embrace, and I rested my head in the crook of his neck and wept.
