First of all, I want to say that this is loosely based on the t.v. show bitten. (I just found out recently that there are books) The main thing I am using are the characters, which belong to the author of the women of the other world series and are not mine except for a choice few that I created for the purpose of the story such as children, and antagonists. I also know that in the books, Clay and Elena have twins, a boy and a girl, but in my story that is not the case. Also, the characters from t.v./books are not the main characters of my story, but their children as this is about the next generation. Main focus will be their relationships/problems with occasional interference of their parents. I don't usually write for people, so this is new to me, but I hope that you enjoy it and it can hook you in. Thanks for reading!
The sun was setting letting the darkness take over the sky. Elena screamed as another pain overtook her and she felt her lower regions begin to open. She panted and grabbed Claytons hand, squeezing it as she focused on a push. She gasped as the burn became fierce. "You are so close, Darlin," he said with his slight southern drawl. She tried to smile but couldn't through her barred teeth. Screaming again she began to push. You are almost there," Rachel said smiling as she brought a clean towel down to the baby who was emerging. One final push and Elena felt a reliefe that she had been waiting for. Panting and closing her eyes she heard it… the baby's cries. Her baby's cries. Clay laughed through his tears as Rachel handed the baby over to him. Elena looked and smiled brightly as tears began to stream down her cheeks as well. The baby looked at her and Clay. Elena could tell that it knew exactly who they were. Lifting the blanket, Clayton gasped, "It's a girl!" Elena sat up ignoring her soreness. "No," She cried, "That cant be." Clayton sighed and let some tears fall as he nodded, "She wont survive the first change." Elena took her baby in her arms and hugged her with tears falling down her face. Clayton hugged her and the baby as the rest of the pack ran through the bedroom door. "Whats wrong," Asked nick as his 5 year old son held on to his leg. Clayton looked at Jeremy and no words were needed. "The baby is a girl," Jeremy said sadly, "She will be short lived." Nick shook his head looking down and resting his hand on his young sons head. Rachel walked over to them, "Should we end it now, or let her live for 16 years?" Elena choked out a sob as she lowered the baby from her and grew her nails. Looking at Clay for approval she began to slit the childs throat but was stopped by something. Her daughter was looking straight in her eyes and what Elena saw there was the wolf. The baby was reassuring her that it would all be okay. "What is it, Darlin," Clay asked looking from her to the baby. Elena shrunk her nails back down and looked at him, "Lets chance it," She said, "I feel that she could survive." Jeremy walked in and looked at the baby, "Elena, it will only make it harder when you lose her." Elena shook her head, "I just saw the wolf in her eyes," She said looking at him, "She is going to be strong." Jeremy sighed and lay his hand on the babies head and his other hand on his son's arm, "What do you think, Clay?" Clay bent down and looked into his daughters eyes. There was a fierceness in them that gave him confidence. "I see it too," exclaimed looking up at his wife and then back down at the baby, "I am going to be here for you darlin'." He caressed the babies head and kissed it. Elena smiled and laughed as tears fell, "Come in everyone, meet our daughter." All the ones who had been standing in the doorway rushed in and surrounded the bed. Elena watched as her baby looked around at everyone. She knew that the baby could tell they were family. Nicks son, Nanook reached out to touch her head like small kids do with babies, "What is her name?" Elena looked at clay who looked at him and then to the baby, "Even though we had hoped it was not agirl, we thought of a name for one," He said taking his daughter from Elena's arms, "We are going to call her, Willa, after my mother from so long ago." Nanook walked over to Clay and the baby, resting his hand on her head again he said, "Don't worry, Willa, I will always protect you." Everyone looked at him. Jeremy smiled and chuckled, "We all will, Nanook." Nick put his hand on his sons shoulder and pulled him back to him, "We should let them rest now," He said smiling and picking his Nanook up, "They have had a long couple days." Elena had, had a long labor. Maybe because she was a female were wolf or because the baby was female. She was tired. Clay ushered everyone out of the room and returned to the bed where he lay down with his wife and his baby. "She will be okay," Elena said as she stroked her childs blonde hair, "She will be strong." Clay caressed his wife's face and smiled, "She has a strong mother, and that gives her a better chance." They each laid a hand on the baby as they fell asleep.
