Mystery POV:
A wide grin bloomed on my face as I poked the sleeping face of the tiny entity, her cheeks sinking in as I poked them. Sweat poured down my reddened face, contrasting the warm gentle blue eyes staring at the baby within my arms.
"She's beautiful," I squinted my eyes, tears streaming down my face. I looked up at the gorgeous man before me. His silky black hair falling to his shoulders and his apple red eyes filled with immense warmth. Two twirling black horns poked from his head, the tip glinting in the light.
"You did well, my love, she's gorgeous just like you," He reached out his hand squeezing mine. He lifted the silent child, running his fingers through her shining silver hair. Her shut eyelids hid the different coloured eyes beneath them while her silvery eyelashes cast a shadow upon her face. "She takes after you, my love," He looked up at me, his cherry eyes smiling.
"Henri, she has your eyes," A slight pout formed on my face. A laugh rang in the spacious room resembling the deep clanging of a bell. "Only one of her eyes are like mine, dear," he handed our child back to me.
"Henri, what should we name her?" A loud explosion erupted outside, I covered my eyes as shards of glass flew everywhere. I coughed, choking on the thick cloud of brown dust, squinting my eyes to see through the cloud.
"Bella~" A bubbly high-pitched voice rang beside my ear, I snapped my head to the side seeing the familiar smile hanging on the end of the blonde man. I held the child closer to my bosom, shielding her from the dust and man before me.
"Fredrick!!" I shouted, dust filling my lungs as I did, I coughed trying my best to catch my breath. "Fredrick, why are you here?" I wheezed.
"Bella~ It's obvious to get revenge~" He twirled his cloak flying with him.
"MY LOVE RUNN!!" Henri's strained voice echoed from the distance, along with sounds of swords clanging. It was too late. Before I knew it, my arms were empty, my child gone. My eyes widened as I twisted around, my heart thumping faster than ever while I searched for her.
"Bella you who~" Fredrick waved his hand to me, a toothy grin plastered on his face. I ground my teeth enunciating each word "Fredrick give her to me!" I lunged forward attempting to snatch my child back but to no avail.
His toothy grin turned to a frown as he narrowed his light yellow eyes. "Why should I? This cursed child, I wanted you! You should have been mine, but yet you chose that.... that demon! Have you no shame!!? Can't you see my love for you!!?" His eyes went bloodshot as he screamed golf balls flying in every direction.
He tossed his head back, laughing, his laughter becoming more and more maniacal and screechy. "Let's see what you'll do as your child is slowly consumed by that 'thing'" He laughed again and pulled a small, sleek black crystal from his coat pocket. My eyes turned to saucers when I laid my eyes upon it.
"Fredrick don't!!!" I leapt forward trying my best but most my power was sucked from me during childbirth and I had little to no power left to fend against the man, he easily threw a kick to my stomach throwing me to the other side of the room. Blood rushed up to my throat, as I barely swallowed the thick metallic goo, leaving no evidence besides the thin stream of blood that streaked down the side of my mouth.
I held my arm, wincing as I staggered to my feet. My eyes widened and sweat poured down my forehead as my heart sunk watching Fredrick ruthlessly shove the crystal into my nameless child's navel. A dim light shone before the crystal disappeared within her body; I was too late. I dropped to the floor, a blank look on my face as I stared at the ground. Fredrick laughed again, "How does it feel Bella, knowing your child is doomed to die!!"
"Bella!!!" my shoulders shook and Henri's voice echoed in my ears pulling me back to reality. "Bella, my love, I'll get our child back, take her and run, run as far as you can and protect her, please," he stressed the 'please'.
"What are you going to do, Henri," I waited a few moments with no answer, Henri's eyes locked on the ground, emotions whirling in his eyes. I grabbed his arm tugging his shirt "Henri, don't tell me?" My voice hitched in my throat as I choked on my sobs.
"Protect our baby and give her a lovely name, I love you, my dearest Bella," Moist lips crashed against my forehead with utmost gentleness. He threw me a wry loving smile, before turning to Fredrick rushing at him with fury.
