Hizaki P.O.V.
The next morning was a surprise just like every other morning; a red rose laid right next to me with a small letter attached, though a hand still held the rose... I looked up to the arm that was attached to the hand and soon saw my prince had fallen asleep next to me, his head resting on his arm as he slept.
The sight was something categorized under 'cute' though I knew this was also a bad sign…Knowing that the other was a vampire…Knowing that he needed his Coffin…
Had he worried so much that he had gone from tired to exhausted?
I pouted and laid there fore a moment, suddenly noticing I had my own hand on my belly, blushing slightly as it even started to show through the covers of the bed…
Vampire babies seem to grow faster, I wonder if that will also happen if it is born?
I did not feel ill so that must have been positive…Though I did have a headache…
My eyes scanned the room; white and dark wood was combined in it, some small details here and there, though nothing compared to the prince his room.
Of course I'd never be able to afford these luxuries so I did not have the rights to judge the room.
I tried to move from the bed but the moment I did Kamijo woke up. Oh shoot! His eyes showed slight worry making me blush and look down to my belly, my hand still placed there a I sat up with some troubles.
Not because I was fat; but because I did not want to stain my belly!
" Are you alright, princess?" He asked sweetly making goose bumps appear on my skin. His voice was the sweetest I could have ever imagine and his eyes his whole posture had changed from tough and leader like to that of a true worried lover and maybe even father!
" But of course, prince" I replied with a small smile, watching as his eyes moved down from my own towards my belly.
It was slight uncomfortable to be looked at like that…I felt vulnerable and unsure, but then again I wanted this; imagining a little prince of my own was enough to make my heart melt!
I giggles slightly as he moved his hand on my belly, only with his fingertips at first but soon his whole hand was on it. The words " beautiful" and "amazing" left his lips quietly; almost too quiet for me to hear.
A knock interrupted our little 'mommy daddy' moment, a maid and a beautiful lady entering inside the room. From the moment I saw the well dressed lady the word 'vampire' crossed my mind. I was scared, even with my prince, and out of defense I curled up slightly, holding my belly.
And I prayed…' don't hurt my baby' over until she stood straight in front of my bed, next to Kamijo, who seemed okay with her presence.
" It's okay you know, I'm glad to get a 'grandchild'" she said, joking of course, but at that moment I did not know any reason for laying my trust in her.
" Hizaki, calm down" My prince said, softly moving a hand to mine, softly rubbing it, smiling reassuringly " She raised me" was all he said, making me look at him with a faint blush.
My, I was reacting in such strange ways…But then again I've always been shy…
Slowly I sat up and bowed my head a little to the lady, avoiding eye contact now, why? I did not wish to anger her in anyway and somehow I found looking down a sign of respect.
" My, my Kamijo, he really is beautiful, your lucky…but…still human…" The woman said, turning her attention to Kamijo after she had literally scanned my whole body over "Adelaide, I'm aware of that, please do not say such things not now, not when he's pregnant" My prince said, more of pleaded.
Never had I heard my prince talk like this, he was actually being submissive and non- demanding! She must be powerful to let my prince be like this…Then again maybe it was because she raised him?
" Fine" I heard her agree a small sigh following. I watched them curiously, tried to observe them while a sudden hunger came up in me. Gosh I suddenly craved strawberries with whipped cream!
How I knew what they taste like…let's just say when you work as a slave in the kitchen your glad when there are some leftovers…
"Adelaide, I wondered if-" my prince started but my angry tummy growled loudly interfering with their conversation. My face was beet red and I quickly held my stomache trying to keep in the sounds of hunger.
My, this was so embarrassing!
A small but happy sounding laugh broke me from my shyness and I looked up to see Adelaide laughing happily "Poor you, mi-chan get Hizaki-chan some food yes?" she said happily to the maid that had walked into the room with her.
The maid nodded and quickly scurried off to fetch me some food " Sorry" I said softly, looking at Kamijo with embarrassed and sorry eyes, sighing in relief as he hugged me close.
I was reacting so much to the smallest things…were this the hormones?
" Don't worry dear I want Kamijo's babies to be strong and healthy even if they are half-breeds " She said with a gentle smile making me nod my head slightly, cuddling up to my prince.
" I love you" I said softly, smiling slightly as I looked up at Kamijo " I love you too, princess" he answered, kissing my lips softly making me blush once more; we had Adelaide in our room after all!
As we broke apart a small silence was in the room, my soul being stared at by Kamijo's eyes making a shiver run through my spine.
His pale eyes are so beautiful to me. They may appear cold ,and yes, very unnatural but…I can look past that barrier of my prince…I could see what he felt in those pearl colored eyes.
" Well, Kamijo, Hizaki, I will talk to you later today alright?" Adelaide said, half asked though I knew better; I knew it was something close to a demand and Kamijo and I both understood and nodded our heads.
She left the room though as she did the maid entered, having lots of different kinds of food with her, and even some blood for my lover. I smiled thankfully and slowly took some fruit, starting to eat.
I didn't want to be rude and ask for what I was craving so instead I just set my mind on eating this all. Beef, apples, pears, melon… and what not more was all on the small cart.
I ate hungrily, my hunger seeming to never end as I kept putting things in my mouth. I tried to use my manners but I was eating rather fast.
Come to think of it...Last time I ate was on the carriage! No wonder I was starving!
After a while I was finished with eating and smiles at my prince, giggling as he nuzzles my cheek and then kisses my lips.
"Our lives have changed so much" I said softly, smiling at him as I shyly places my lips upon his, a kiss of total submission, but one with my own affords in it.
As we broke away from the sweet kiss he smiled at me making me have those strange butterflies in my belly again " Princess do you wish to wash yourself? We have a bathroom" He said softly, smiling at me as my eyes went big.
We? We have a bathroom? Will we share everything then? I giggled and kisses his lips again shortly, just a peck on his lips before standing up carefully, rubbing my belly.
Kamijo also stood and led the way to the bathroom where there was a bathtub filled with warm water " Thank you" I said, bowing slightly to my master.
It truly confused me; was Kamijo my lover or master? Was he my predator hunting on me and was I just his prey?
So many things to figure out, but for now, I will just relax inside this warm bath, relax my muscles and my mind.
I undressed as soon as the prince left, slowly getting inside of the warm water, sighing in delight as it surely did good to take a bath!
My mind wandered back to what had happened so far; I woke up and my tummy growled…Kamijo…and his somewhat submissive behavior around that woman.
In a way I felt envy for her; Adelaide I mean.
I closed my eyes and sighed once more, playing with my hair; staying like that for quite some while, nearly falling asleep at some point!
