The Dark Prince.
***************************** PART 1 ************************************
I am in shock, taking in what Thierry has just told me about my unborn son.
"You mean to tell me that as soon as my baby comes out of me, he will destroy the world?" I ask calmly to the blonde, ancient vampire, who is standing in front of me, at the foot of my bed.
"Yes." he replies grimly. "I'm so sorry Nila."
"How exactly is he going to destroy the world when he's just a baby?" I demand.
"I don't know exactly. The prophecy just says that the Prince over all the Night World species shall destroy the world as soon as he's born." Thierry replies.
"Is there any way to stop this from happening Thierry?" My soulmate Miles Neely demands.
"I have no idea Miles." The Night Lord replies. "And apparently, according to the prophecy, the baby cannot be harmed when he's still inside you Nila."
"You mean that I can't have an abortion? Even if I wanted it?" I ask in a small voice.
"No." Thierry answers, still grimly.
"Not even a miscarriage can happen?" Thierry's soulmate/wife and my cousin, Hannah gasps.
"Not even a miscarriage." Thierry repeats.
"Great. So one way or another, when junior here is born we can kiss good bye to the world?" I ask.
"That's one way of putting it." Delos Redfern, Miles' sister-Maggie's soulmate, mumbles.
"Look." Maggie starts. "How are we to prevent this from happening?"
"I don't know. Stop asking me." Thierry says, sitting on the bed beside me.
"Well, we obviously can't let it happen." Maggie finishes.
"How is it impossible for the baby to be harmed?" I ask, starting to get irritated.
"The prophecy states that if the baby is under threat from anything trying to harm it, then either the person or thing that the child is under threat from will die, or…" Thierry let's the sentence go unfinished.
"Or? What?" I ask, when he doesn't continue.
"Or the baby will probably kill you Nila." He finishes.
"My unborn son could kill me if threatened?" I ask, confused.
"It's a possibility." He says.
"Let's see here." I say. "Do you know anyone who might know about my child?" I ask Thierry.
"Let me think." He replies. "Yes, his name is Saulmann. He's an Egyptian as well. I could phone him up and tell him the prophecy. Hopefully, he'll be able to help."
"Yeah. Just make sure that my child isn't born first." I mutter. "I'm gonna give birth to the spawn of Satan. Great." I mumble.
"Thank you." Miles mutters.
"You know what I mean." I say to him.
"I'd better go and call Saulmann." Thierry interrupts.
He climbs off the bed and walks out of the door.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Thierry marches back into the room two and a half hours later.
"Well?" I ask him. "What did Saulmann say?"
"He told me that he's look into it." Thierry explains. "After hitting the roof and swearing in Egyptian." He adds as an after thought.
"Hmm." I mutter. "Is he…uh…human, or…?" I let the question trail.
"He's a witch actually." Thierry answers.
"Oh. Okay." I reply.
"He's gonna give me a ring when he's found something." He continues.
"What kind of ring? Wedding ring? Engagement ring? Ooh, maybe an ordinary ring?" I ask.
"Ha ha. Very funny." He says.
"I know." I reply sweetly.
"Would you like us to stay Nila?" Delos asks.
"No. You guys go on." I answer. "Miles can stay if he wants."
"Sure thing." Hannah says. "If you need anything, just give us a shout."
"Okay." I reply.
All four of them walk out of my room, after lots of hugs and saying that I should shout if I needed anything. I turn to Miles.
"I'm going to sleep. It's been a long day."
"So am I." He replies.
We climb under the covers and cuddle up next to each other. I feel Miles wrap his arms around my stomach.

A/N: Please review and let me know what you think of this first part. I'll try to make this story as funny as the last one, but no promises and don't hold your breath. This one is going to be more serious than the last one, but I'll try my best to make it funny as well.
It might be a while before I update this fic, as I am doing my A.V.C.E art and design this year (A level art), so I have to concentrate on the art, but if I get any free time, I'll update it, I promise.
Anywho, please review, and let me know how this is.
