I do not own

Dream flashback

Blood, guts, organs and other body parts were all inside the elevator as the door opened. Vlad step out of the elevator with blood all over his clothes and person. He just killed the guards that secured the elevator and everyone in the lobby. Now he was on the top floor where his main target was and the only thing that stood in his way were ten human guards. They all shot at him as he walked out of the elevator but he still walked through as his body regenerate from the bullet wounds. When he was close enough they were out of bullets.

"How unfortunate. Humans and your guns. Normally I will tell you all to leave right now while you still can." He said before his eyes start glowing red and growled. "But after what your boss has done…none of you deserves…to live."

One guard snapped out of his trance and went to hit him but Vlad simply plunged his hand through the guys' chest. The men backed away a little as they saw the hand popped out from the man's back and holding his heart out. Vlad looked at them with a sinister smirk and crushed the heart with his fist. The blood got on some of the guards and one of them started to puck.

"Now gentlemen, your about to see a true devil." He darkly smirked

Inside the office the old man sitting down at his desk was doing some paper work as the screaming of his guards continued. It wasn't until two minutes later that the screaming stop and the doors opened.

"So you came." The man said still writing his papers, not looking at him at all or frighten.

"It's time to end this game, Caligula." Vlad glared

Caligula stopped writing and smirked.

"So, the death of Mina is what brought you here?" Caligula said

He finally looked at his old student and saw the dark look in his eyes. He stood up from his chair and walked around his desk. Not once did they take their eyes off each other in hate.

"But tell me…Son of the Devil…do you really think you can kill me?" Caligula said

"Like I care. I know I'm not welcome in heaven. If I die here, I'm taking you with me. Then…we can continue our none stop battle in hell." Vlad said

Punches, slashes and cuts were all over them and the office had a bunch of holes and cracks from their hours of battle. In the end Vlad had Caligula by the throat and pinned him down on the floor. Out of rage his demon side took over and he drank the masters' blood, all the way to the last drop. He gasped and backed away as he felt the new amount of power charging through him. Caligula darkly laughed as his body was decaying into ash.

"Well…well done…my son. Soon…in time…you will serve my purpose next." He smirked before his whole body disintegrates into nothing.

Vlad raised a brow at that last sentence but couldn't think of it as the new power hit him hard. It was ten times worse than the first time. As the pain rushed through his body he fell to the floor and he heard footsteps heading towards the office. It was a woman judging by the sound of the heels and the scent smelled familiar. His sight started to darken little by little but who he saw standing by the door was his lover Mina, who was supposed to be dead. She stood there alive and had a dark smirk on her face. Her eyes turned red for a second until her phone rang and she answered it.

"Yes. Yes Master. It is done." She said

It was the last thing he heard her say before he blacked out.

End of dream flashback….

"Mina!" He gasped

Vlad woke up in a sweat and took a blade out that was hidden under his pillow.

"Vlad?" Alice said

She had been awake the whole time since he started moving and talking a lot in his sleep.

"I'm sorry if I've scared you, love." He said and placed the blade back under his pillow. "Just had a nightmare."

"Who's Mina?" She asked

He looked up at her and she saw the worry and fear in her eyes.

"My last lover from ten years ago." Vlad said "I thought she died but I was never sure. The day I killed the master I thought I saw her but I figured it was just in my head." Then he cupped her face with his hands to make her look at him. "She is my past. The only reason I was with her was because she looked like my first wife."

"And me? Do I…?" She said

"No, I love you for you Alice." He said "Please don't think like that. That was over ten years ago and I had moved on. The love that I feel for you is stronger than anything than I have ever felt before." He kissed her. "Please don't be mad at me."

He started kissing her again and again all over her face and down her neck.

"Vlad…not fair. I want to be mad at you." She giggled when he kissed her ticklish spot on her neck.

Vlad chuckled and pecked her lips one more time before looking at her.

"I'm sorry, I want to blame the pregnancy hormones but deep down…I am a little insecure sometimes." She said "My first husband…had cheated on me…a lot."

"There is nothing for you to worry about my love. My eyes and heart will forever belong to you." He said

They kissed again and after a while it turn into passion as he laid her down on the bed and started roaming his hands all over her body. Then he touched her below her sensitive area and started teasing it.

"Vlad…" She moaned

"You know…they say that sex helps speed up the pregnancy." He huskily whispered in her ear.

"I heard that too. But we can't do it rough like we use to." She smirked

Vlad smirked and teleported them in a room where the inmates get intimate with their guest. It was the only place where they could be as loud as they want.

When morning came the next day Vlad woke up with Alice wrapped in his arms. Seeing that they weren't in their cell he smirked as he remembered what happen last night. Then he placed a hand on her womb and smiled when he felt his son's pulse. It won't be long until she gives birth. Another day or two. He knew he can rely on Eileen during the delivery and he will be there too in case something happens. Their child will be the very first vampire born, not bitten, and he wasn't sure how dangerous his child will be.

He stayed in his spot for a while wondering what he should do about the situation with Ricks group and Sophia. A part of him wanted to give her the choice when or if she remembers them. Another part of him (his demonic part) was roaring at him to just erase the groups' mind of her. It too saw Sophia as one of their own. Saw her as his child and he won't let anyone take his child away from his family, not again. That part of him was winning and he knew very well that Alice would agree to it. This was a tough choice.

Alice started to stir from her sleep and looked up to see him in deep thought.

"Vlad?" She said

By the sound of his mates' voice he was brought back to reality and smiled at her.

"Morning love." He said

She smiled and kissing him before telling him a morning greeting too. They teleported back to their cell and had gotten dress. When they were ready they got out of their cell and met with everyone else. Chris and Sophia smiled as they watched Vlad help Alice walked down the steps. Even though she said she could do it herself Vlad didn't want to risk it. Besides, he likes coddling her every once in a while. When they reached the bottom Chris hurried to him and leaped into his arm. Vlad caught him with ease and hugged him in return. Sophia walked over to Alice and hugged her before saying hello to the baby in her womb.

"Do you think he'll know my voice?" She asked

"Well they do say that the baby can hear everything that's happening inside the womb." Morgan said "When my wife was pregnant with Dwayne she would always have us talk to her womb none stop. The good thing about it was that she would never yell at me when she was mad because she didn't want him to hear it."

Everyone laughed as they headed to the kitchen when they smelled Eileen's breakfast. It was quiet of course between the two groups. No one knew what to say. Rick's group wasn't surprised that Daryl had went to sit with Merle and Alice. Rick knew it wasn't anything personal. They were blood and they had only each other. Carol kept looking at Sophia with watery eyes, still couldn't believe her little girl didn't know who she was. Then she glared at Alice since she was sitting next to her and she was talking to her like she was her mother. Alice sensed her glare and looked at her to give her one too. Carol eyes widen in fear when she saw those cold dead eyes and looked away quickly. Sensing his mate anger he placed his hand over her shoulder to calm her down.

"I'm going to tear her head off if she doesn't stop glaring." She whispered for only him to hear

"I know love. I know." He said

When breakfast was over Vlad had everyone outside the court yard and started to explaining the rules to them. After explaining to them he walked over to the table that Jesse and Gabriel brought out and showed them the weapons that they'll be using.

"I don't think I'm comfortable in letting my son welding blades." Lori said

"Yet she lets her son shoot a gun." Alice muttered to Merle

He laughed at her comment.

"I'm sure that if your son can handle a pistol he can handle a sword." Vlad said "Besides all children are to learn how to fight and defend themselves here. And that means how to handle and fight with different weapons."

"What…no…no." Lori said

"Mom I can handle it." Carl said

"All the kids here know how to fight Mrs. Grimes. I'm pretty sure even Chris can take him down if they were in a fight." Vlad said

Merle and Daryl snickered. Morgan, Nathan and Angelina smirked knowing how right he was. Vlad and Alice had did everything they could to make Chris strong since he was the youngest in the group. Carl would have glared at them but he looked at the young boy. It looked like he wasn't listening as he was playing with batman figure. It didn't look like he could harm anyone. Suddenly he felt a sting on his cheek. When he touched it he felt the pain and he saw that it was bleeding.

"Mom said it's not nice to stare at people." Chris said looking at him

"Since when do you ever miss your aim little man. That's not like you." Dwayne asked

"What are you talking about?" Carl asked

"I wasn't talking to you." Dwayne said

Chris stood up from his spot on the ground and took out what looked like a dart from a case that was attach to his right leg.

"I don't but dad said I can't kill unless someone attack me or looks like they will." Chris said "I missed only to give him a warning to not look at me like I'm the weakling here. From what I can see he's the weakest of the group."

Carl glared and felt embarrassed when he saw Sophia and Amy laughing.

"I can't believe you let your child attack my son." Lori glared at Alice

"It's your son's fault for looking at my boy like that. Chris always had a gift with darts since we had one in his room." Alice shrugged "He never misses his target. Though I had to stop him when Merle used him to hustle people for their money." Then she glared back at her. "If you haven't notice, this isn't the world that we're use to. It's not just the Walkers that we have to worry about. It's people too. This world has brought the darkness out of everyone now. As long as my children are safe and know when to strike if needed properly, I'm happy."

"Though I would like to be an archer just like mom, Uncle Daryl and Sister Sophia." Chris said as he fiddled with the dart in his hand. "But they haven't been able to fine a crossbow or a bow my size."

"Now that's the Dixon's blood in him. He's a fighter and a survivalist." Merle said in pride a ruffle Chris's hair

"My wife is right. I'm sure all of you have seen the chance in people. That's why you must follow our rules and be prepare for the worse." Vlad said "Now for job positions. We are good on food and other supplies for a few more weeks so we don't have to go on runs for now. I believe you all remember the jobs we have here. We have two men on each towers keeping watch. Today on the west tower will be Angelina and Maggie." Maggie looked at Angelina with unease. "East tower will be Nathan, Merle and Glen. They are my best sharp shooter and they'll be testing your site and your aim." Vlad said

Glen looked at Merle who just grinned at him and he couldn't help but gulped.

"Tending to the animals and the garden will be Gabriel, Big Tiny, Carol, Beth and Hershel. When you're done with that you'll be helping with the gate. Those that are helping with the gate will be Morgan, Oscar, Axel, T-dog, Rick, Daryl and I. Eileen and Amy will be teaching the kids their school work first. Then by twelve Morgan and I will be teaching weaponry to them and that includes Beth and Carl as well. As for Lori and Alice, since you are close to your due dates…" He said

"Vlad, I told you I'm fine." Alice said

"Darling are we going to argue again about this?" He asked with a smirk

"You've been with her for almost a year and you still haven't learn how stubborn she can be." Daryl scoffed

"I know I have no say in this but I do think your husband is right. It's not good for a pregnant woman to be on their feet and stress themselves out." Hershel said

Alice was about to say something but the baby started to kick her stomach.

"See, even our son thinks so too." Vlad smirked

"Fine, I'll settle down." Alice pouted

He signaled for everyone to go and do their assigned jobs and walked over to his wife, who was still pouting.

"Have I ever told you how cute you are when you pout like that?" He said and placed his hands on her hips.

She wanted to be mad at him but he always made it hard for her to with his sexy charm.

"No…since I rarely do it." She smiled

He leaned down and kissed her before placing a hand on her stomach.

"It won't be long. I just want everything to be okay when the time comes." He said

"You know I'll be fine." She said, placing a hand on his cheek.

He knew that she could see the fear in his eyes. Knowing that the dream from last night had scared him. From what he told her about his past it sounded like everything gets taken away from him when he finally has happiness. When that happens he gets darker and he could feel it, especially when he drank all the masters' blood it's gotten worse. After Mina's death he swore to himself that he'll never get close to anyone again and spend his time taming his darker side. He broke that when he met Alice. She, Chris and Sophia had gave him a purpose in life again, happiness. If anything ever happened to her or them he knew that he'll lose himself completely and never come back.

"Vlad." She said "I'll be fine. Nothing in this world could ever take me away from you. Besides…there's nothing more dangerous in this world than a mother that will do anything her family. Especially a pregnant vampire mother."

Vlad couldn't help but smirked at her words.

"Are all Dixon women so sure of themselves?" Vlad chuckled

Alice laughed too and they kissed a few times again. They sighed in happiness and looked at each other lovely.

"You do know that you're still on bed rest right?" He smirked, knowing very well that what she was trying to do with that kiss.

She pouted with a whine and he couldn't stop himself from laughing.

"Go…now young lady. Don't make me spank you." Vlad smirked

"Sounds tempting." She smirked

That turned him on but he had to control himself.

"Bed…now." He said

She sighed and went to leave but not before he slapped her ass. She squeaked in surprise she turned around and saw the biggest smile on his face.

"Like you said, it sounded tempting. I had to do it." He laughed

She smirked and shook her head in amusement before she left. When she was out of sight his smiled turned to a frown and looked at the skies.

"I know I don't deserve your forgiveness or your pity or anything from you. But I'm begging you please…whatever this omen feeling is…leave them out of it. Please." Vlad prayed

He heard Lucifer growled and turned to see him looking towards the woods. Whoever was watching him had left quickly before he could even scan the forest. This feeling and that dream had started happening when Rick's group came. Knowing very well that he isn't the only one the Master had turned others he couldn't help but wonder if they had just taken in another covens' food. He looked at Morgan and Angelina who had sensed it too and the hellhounds that waited for his orders.

"Be on guard. Don't let anyone new in our home." He ordered "If you see them. Kill them. This is our home and our family. No one lives when they are threatening our family."

Morgan and Angelina nodded and left to do their work.

"Logan, Nightwing and Gambit guard the children. If anything happens take them to safety, tell the pups the same thing. Lucifer, Midnight you guard Alice with your life." He said

With that said the hellhounds nodded and left.
