Chapter 51: Chapter Fourty-Nine:
****FREYA'S POINT OF VIEW****
I groan as I lift my shirt revealing the small bump that was there. This thing thing showed up over night! This was ridiculous! And on top of all of it the baby could move!
The door to our room opens and Astor steps inside. His eyes widened slightly.
"You didn't have that when you came home last night!" I turn and scowl at him. He gives me a gentle smile and walks over to me placing his warm hand against the bump. I let out a long sigh. The warmth felt nice. He chuckles at my reaction.
"Rough morning?" He was obviously amused. Which didn't help my mood.
"All I do is puke! It's sucks! Everything stinks!" Astor leans down pressing his forehead against mine.
"I'll get you some ginger tea. It'll help with the puking." I groan and shake my head.
"We have other things to worry about." I pull away from him. He gives me a curious smile.
"What's on your mind?" I let out a frustrated sigh.
"Why haven't they released Falak yet? It doesn't make any sense." Astor arches an eyebrow at me.
"You have a point." What were they waiting for?
'Mistress the blood moon.' My eyes widen as I look at Astor. His eyes were wide now. He had heard Shade too.
"Come on. We need to tell the war council." Astor takes my hand but I pull him back to me. I give him a coy smile. Before he could say anything I stretch up on my tip toes and press my mouth to his. He seemed shocked for a moment before he responded. He was gentle. Careful not to hurt me.
I pull away and giggle. Of course he was afraid of hurting the baby. Astor chuckles and shakes his head.
"Ready to go now?" I giggle and nod my head. He takes my hand as we leave the room. The airnaround us was peaceful and calm.
Astor made everything better. Being with him was as easy as breathing and he understood me and loved me even when I was being hard headed. Or basically trying to get myself killed. I had been Reckless. Alot.
Astor's laugh draws my attention. Damien stood there with Silias and Damien looked really frustrated. Damien growls at Silias but Silias just laughs it off. I shake my head.
"Already instigating," I smile at Astor's light tone. Silias turns to us and his eyes travel to my belly and without warning he rushes me placing a hand over my bump. I openly glare at him. Even Astor let outa warning growl. I watch as Silias's face twists in confusion.
"Strange." My heart jumped into my throat.What did he mean by that. was something wrong?
"Is something wrong with him?" I peek up at Astor and see the worry etched in his features.
"No. The baby is fine. What's strange is that it seems like the baby is developing in an accelerated rate." My stomache drops. Accelerated rate?!
"So how long until the baby is fully developed and will it hurt Freya?" Silias"s eyes narrow as he concentrates. He frowns suddenly.
"Freya should be fine. I believe it's her body that that is making the baby develop faster than average because Elven babies take a full ten months to develop and at this rate I don't think it'll take a month."
I felt the blood drain from my face. Why was my body making him grow faster?! Why did I have to stress about labor so soon. Seeing what Aatra went through with Nigeria was awful. I could barely catch the baby! Let one being on the pushing end!!!
I was breathing in short pants and my hands shook. My heart was pounding so loud that I could hear it in my ears. What was happening to me?! Panic takes over! Tears burned my eyes as they spilled over. I could hear muffled voices around me.
I cover my ears and drop to my knees and flames shoot up around me. Scary thoughts waves over me of the thought of the baby being harmed while trying to be both or of both being lost.
I gasp as strong arms around around me tightly.
"Frey! I need you to calm down!" Raph?! My eyes snap upward and Raph winces and smiles down at me. I inhale several shaky breaths before the flames dissipated. I look around and everyone wore shocked expressions.
Raph hadn't let go yet. That's when I realized my body was trembling.
***RAPH'S POINT OF VIEW*****
I hadn't even thought about it. I dove straight into her flames to get to her. She was trembling.
She was still trembling but the flames were gone and her breathing was better now. Astor kneels down infro t of her and she whimpers. I tighten my arms around her gently. She was terrified and it was rolling off of her.
Astor reaches out and places his hand on her cheek. She relaxes enough I can let go.
Freya turns to me and gives me a sad look. I let out a clipped sigh.
"What the hell happened to set her off?" I look directly at Silias. For some reason I knew that he had done it. Silias looks offended. Astor growls a sigh and lifts Freya into his arms.
"The baby is growing faster than normal and could be here in a month if not sooner." .y eyes widen and my heart drops. No wonder she freaked out.
"And you just had to tell her. Without considering how'd she feel." I was still glaring at Silias. Freya sighs.
"It's fine. It's my fault for freaking out.But I am hungry now." Astor chuckles lightly.
"As you wish little Dragon." I watch ad Astor walks away with Freya in his arms. I turn my attention back to Silias and he was frowning. Damien grumbles and waves before turning on his heels and leaving. I growl at Silias.
"Why is the baby growing so fast?" Silias frowns slightly.
"Her body is accelerating the development. I think it's The Dragon part of her. I think that it's because there is only two of them left..." What did just say?! Two?! Freya should be the only one!
I snarl and grab Silias by the collar of his shirt. He knew that he had slipped up.
"Whose the second?!" Silias groans and let's out a frustrated growl.
"I can't tell you that." Rage boiled up from the pit of my stomache. So there was another Dragon-borne alive somewhere.
"Silias if you do not tell me I will forget we are friends." Silias seemed to be debating it. He looked almost worried.
"Freya's sister is alive."
