Chapter Ten, The baby Surprise
"Darling?" Jasper asked worriedly when he felt a range of different emotions surging through his wife. "Darling you're scaring me what does it say?" Jasper tried again when he didn't get an answer. Artemis looked up from the parchment she was holding tightly in her hands tears filling her eyes as she looked up at her husband. "I'm pregnant." Artemis whispered a tear rolling down her cheek. "What?" Jasper asked his eyes wide.
"I'm pregnant Jasper with twins." Artemis said again a small smile coming to her lips. Jasper blinked one then twice, venom tears filling his eyes, one of his hands cupping her cheek the other resting softly on her stomach. "We're going to have more children?" Jasper breathed a smile on his lips as he leaned forward kissing his wife with all that he had. Sending her all his love, devotion, admiration and happiness. When he pulled back he rested his forehead against her forehead, gently wiping away her tears. "Why are you crying my love? Is something wrong?" Jasper asked panicked. Artemis shook her head softly not moving from their embrace.
"No Jasper. Nothing's wrong I'm just so happy." Artemis told him. "The good thing about that spell is, it tells you if you need to take any potions as well after the examination is complete. I'll have a quicker pregnancy then I did with Cassie. I'll be pregnant for about six months instead of nine, I'll have to take some potions such as nutrient potions and blood replenishers but that's it. As I'm a witch and a creature too my body is stronger than a muggles so I won't die during labour as my magic and creature side balance out the vampire gene.
Normally when a witch is a vampire's mate and they have a child, the child will have magic from birth but not the vampire gene they'll come into that at sixteen along with an influx of magic as it matures, the same with any other creature. But as I'm a Veela witch and you're a vampire it would depend on what gene was more dominant in the child but as we have twins one could be a Veela and the other vampire. But unlike being bitten the children will essentially be human with some vampire traits and can survive of human food and blood." Artemis explained.
"So you'll be okay?" Jasper asked wanting to make sure his wife would survive. Artemis smiled softly resting her hand on his cheek. "I'm going to be fine Jasper and our babies will be just fine as well." Artemis assured laughing when Jasper scooped her up into his arms kissing her soundly on the lips as they span in a circle. "Thank you my love. You have given me more than I had ever dreamed to hope for. You have not only shown me what love actually is and made me feel that I do actually deserve it but you have given me a family in your family and Teddy and Cassie my children but also two more on the way. I love you so much." Jasper said embracing his wife in another sweet kiss.
"I love you too Jasper more than anything." Artemis replied. "But we may need to head home it's best if the potions are taken as soon as possible. And I'll probably need a stronger medicine for my heart." "Then we will leave in the morning darling. And we will come back here with all our children." Jasper assured as they made their way back into the villa to mirror call her dad and Andy so the potions are ready for when they arrive. "Sirius Black." Artemis said into the mirror leaning back against Jasper who was sat against the headboard on the bed his arms wrapped around her. "Artemis? Jasper? What's wrong?" Sirius asked immediately becoming concerned.
