Recap:

"Is that what you've been hiding from me for the past two days?" He asked me looking straight into my eyes. I felt my spine shiver while looking into his deep blue eyes.

What am I going to tell him now? That I hate him and that I hate him for raping me. Or maybe I should tell him how badly I feel or maybe I could even say that I hate his guts and don't want to his face ever again. I guess I'll have to let my mouth decide for me instead, since I cannot decide for myself.

"I didn't know how to tell you" I began not knowing where I am going to end after this sentence. "I just wanted this all over and done with and then I want to take the child back to the real world and…" I didn't know what to say but this. "I don't want you to come"

Chapter Twenty
Agreement

I could see the shock in his eyes – I could tell that he wanted the child more than me even though he didn't want it even more at the same time. "No, you can't do this to me! This is my child too, not just yours!" He yelled at me.

He looked really scared and this was the first, I never seen him look like this, ever! He seemed so delicate and so cute when he was scared – I just felt like passionately kissing him right now at this moment, but no! It's senseless.

I just stared at him while he complain even more, "This my child and I want this more than you! Even if your giving birth to this child, I have the rights to see my child. Divorce? Fine whatever but you can't keep me away from my child! Our child!" He yelled even more.

Thayer's P.O.V.

Is she crazy? How could she be so cruel? She knows well enough that it's not right to keep MY child away from me. Why did she even think that? Just because I'm a vampire doesn't mean I won't stop caring about my responsibilities of my child! We do that to our grandchildren for heaven sakes!

"Why don't you want me near my child?" I asked feeling so heart broken. Okay, maybe not heartbroken but maybe a bit hurt, that she thinks I won't be a good father to my child. For heaven sakes! I'm going to be king.

"Isn't it obvious? You raped me, Thayer! If you could do such a cruel thing to me then you're no different to any other and I don't want my child to have you as the father." She said to me loud enough for me to take it in the pain and low enough that only I can hear it. She successfully hurt me, mentally. Never knew a slayer could do that.

"Just because I hate you doesn't mean I'm going to hate the child" I told her truly. Why won't she just give up and let me see my child when she gives birth to him or her. I really hope it's a boy. But if it's a girl I already have a perfect name for her already, Elena.

"Thayer, we both know that this isn't one of those fairy tales that eventually we'll fall in love and cherish this child together! This is reality and I know that you'd hate my guts eternity and I would hate yours." Hearing those words kind of hurt me even more but I know she was right. I'm not going to fall in love with her like one of those fairy tales, humans read.

Why does she have to care about the child more than herself? That's one thing I hate about slayers! They keep on thinking about their family and everyone else but never, once do they think for their themselves.

Really, I would suspect her to run off by now and get it over and done with and I'd never have to see her face but she actually stayed. I don't know why but she stayed. Or maybe she is planning something to get out of here. But it's too late now, she's pregnant, she has to stay with me.

"I don't want our child hear us constantly hating each other and see us wanting to kill each other so badly! I don't want my child to have parents that hates each other – maybe a man who isn't egotistic but caring and wonderful in so many ways would be the father of this child" She explained further.

"I can be caring, compassionate and wonderful in so many ways! I can be that man if you just let me try!" I yelled at her.

She stood there stiffened, she began shaking her head and walks to the balcony, opening the door, allowing a cold breeze blow into the room. Why is this so hard? She's so stubborn!

I could see how scared she was right now – I know she doesn't want to have this child and I know that I don't want have this child with her. I could tell that she wants this all over. Besides, she's only a teen, not even eighteen yet. She's too young to have a child.

She must've grown up knowing that having a child at the age of eighteen proves that you are a whore. Looking at her, forcing herself not to cry makes me want to agree with her and never see my child but this child of mine will be the next heir to the throne.

"Okay, what can I do that will allow me to see my child?" I asked, sighing hopelessly. "I'll do anything you ask"

Evy didn't even move at all, she just stood there and stared at the view. "Prove to me that you can be great father and not one of those normal vampires who think humans are just stupid arrogant living creatures when vampires and werewolves and other creatures of the darkness isn't better themselves" She told me.

What? I can't do that? Is she out of her mind? I'm the king of the 'creature of the darkness' (whatever way she'll put it). I love my people and I couldn't ever say anything bad about them. I'd feel like I'm betraying them in some way.

"Fine, I'll do that – as long as you stay here with the child" I told her walking more closer to her and trying to look at her face.

"You know I won't be staying here for long – a slayer needs to breathe, Thayer. They need to be out there, helping the people they love and people they barley know. Even help the people they don't like at all" She finally turned to face me.

I could see tears falling perfectly down her cheeks. I could see how scared she is now and how hard she's taking this. She looks more scared than me. But still, she cannot allow me to not see my child.

I don't care if she leaves the Underworld and raises the child in the human world, as long I get to see my child whenever I want and I have the best relationship with them and my child gets to visit me whenever and when my child grows up it would want to live with me instead of her.

But though, the child would be more safe with Evy. For heaven sakes, she's the slayer. She was born to protect and I know that she would give her life for her child's. I know she'd try her hardest to protect our child and really, no one would want to attack the child since it's MY child and also the SLAYERS.

No one would want to mess with the two most powerful people in the world kids. But what if there is a bunch of vamps who wants to kill the slayer and takes our child and use the child as bait. No! I'd tell her to call me straight away. It wouldn't just happen to her anyways, it would happen to me as well. I'm going to be the king soon and I would be having a lot of rivals soon.

Heck, I already have a rival. But what if Lucifer doesn't like the fact that a vampire mated with a slayer and the child is being raised as a human. I guess it would be a huge fight against Evy and Lucifer then. And I know that Evy will never give up until she wins or dies. But it's too dangerous for a slayer to have child. She needs help, she needs me.

"Do you think a slayer would look after a child when they already have so many responsibilities?" I asked.

Evelyn's P.O.V.

He's right! Why does he have to be right? I hate it when he is right! Why can't he just be wrong? Why do I have to be a slayer? Everything would've been easier if I just denied the job! Why am I the kind of chosen one? I hate being the slayer.

Most importantly, why didn't I just rejected the marriage? I wouldn't really go to jail at all, since she has no evidential evidence of whatever she accused me for. WHY AM I SO STUPID? ERG!

I just stood there watching him – I already could feel a tear falling down my cheek. I started to shake my head, deliberately and took a deep breath. I can't believe I'm going say this, "That's why you have to prove to me that you can look after the child, and be the perfect imitation of a human father"

He stood there quiet, guessing he was shocked of what I just said. Of course he knows that I won't be able to look after this child on my own and how much I need help. Of course he knows how little help I'd ever get and the only person who would help me would be Nate and no one else. Of course he knows that I'd need him to raise this child.

"I'll try my hardest – I swear to you, I'd try to make this marriage work. Maybe not be a loving couple but at least friends. I will try to become as human as possible and when this child is born and is old enough to leave the underworld – I'll be with you the whole time" Hearing him say that made my heart skip a beat.

And the next thing I know, I'm tightly squeezing Thayer with a hug. I could feel his arms also wrapping his arms around me, I snuggled my nose on his neck, feeling my sleepiness pulling me in.

It was a nice comforting hug, I don't know why but it felt nice being in his arms. AH! What am I doing? I quickly pushed him away and stared at him, looking at me with his normal cocky smirk.

"At least try!" I whined and walked in the room again and cuddled myself in the blankets. I could hear Thayer walking back in the room, closing the door and laid on the bed, wrapping his arms around me, trying to make me feel warm.

I pushed him away from me but he kept on getting closer and closer by the time he squeezed me into his chest and wrapped his whole body around me, allowing me to face his face and we were only three inches apart.

I just pushed him off the bed frowning, "Just because we're having a child together, doesn't mean we can share beds and cuddle next to each other" I complained and continued sleeping.

I heard Thayer chuckle while I heard his footstep walk towards the sofa and heard him lay down and yawned loudly. I closed my eyes and forcing myself to sleep but it already seemed too hard.

I know that I won't be able to look after the child myself and it hit me once Thayer reminded me how hard it would be for me. I do need him there with me but I don't want him to raise the child as a vampire, I want my child to be raised as a human.

What if Simon helped me instead? Two slayers, looking after a slayers child would be very protective. I mean, I could tell that Simon is amazing already even though I haven't seen him fight yet.

I can't believe I'm having a child! I'm too young and it's just not right at all. But still, I do want one before I die and why not know? God knows when I die and who knows, I might die tomorrow since I told Thayer I don't want him to see our child. But yet he wouldn't want to kill his own child.

Just one problem though, how am I going to tell Simon all about this? Should I make him wait for another nine months so then we can leave or should I help Simon to get out of here and once I have a child I would force Thayer to get me out of here.

Simon is going to go berserk when he hears about this. He will go madly crazy and he will never accept my apology. Maybe he'd kill Thayer for me and Simon would take me somewhere in the underworld and wait until I give birth to my child and we'd defeat Lucifer together.

My phone started to ring and I quickly answered it, ignoring the complains Thayer is mumbling out, about something that he can't even sleep tonight.

I answered the phone, "Hello?" I asked, with a yawn.

"Evy? Is that you? It's me, Nate! I'm here in the underworld!"
