The sudden red full moon appeared anew in the sky, upon a clear and starry night. In that instant, it started to elevate the souls of all those at the werewolves, and vampires clan simultaneously.
They were all surprised and scared at the sight of the red moon because it has been more than a decade since such a thing happened. The sight of it becomes a song in the eyes of those that raised their head upward.
Everyone's eyes turned blue at the werewolves' clan, and they started to change into hairy beasts. Whilst, the vampire's clan eyes turned red, with a mouthful of razor-sharp fangs, making it much easier for its bite to puncture the vessels in the neck to feed off human blood.
The pain of labor was a prison for Susan's mind. In that jail cell of fear and confusion, the time passed without her being able to keep track. Her stomach tightened, she heard herself screaming without being aware of making it. She lay still as the medication was administered, waiting for the agony to subside.
"Common, Susan, push harder! The baby is about to pop out!"
A middle-aged woman in her late forties placed both hands on the big belly of a lady, who should be in her late twenties. The lady was groaning in pain, while lying down on a comfy mattress, inside a small, but elegant room.
"Arrrggghhh…"
Susan screamed at the top of her voice, as she held the bed cloth tightly to herself. Tears started strolling down her cheeks as the pain became severe.
"Yeah, you are almost there! Just a little push would do, dear!" The midwife said calmly, as she continued to rub the belly gently.
"Nooooo!! I'm tired of pushing!" Susan wailed, with her eyes half-closed.
"No, you can't give up when you're almost there. Keep your both eyes wide open, and push very hard for the last time."
Susan's breathing became so heavy that she couldn't breathe fine anymore. Immediately a thought crossed her mind, she opened her eyes, which turned red and pushed harder than before.
"Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrghghh!!!" Susan screamed out.
In no time, newborn cries fill the room. The midwife let out a smile, as she picked the baby up, and cleaned him. She instructed her two apprentices to clean Susan up, and she stepped out of the room with the baby in her arms.
"Here, it's a baby boy!" She maintained the smile on her face, as she gave the child to Williams, who's standing next to her.
The father of the child burst into tears of relief and joy, immediately he collected the baby from her. "He's so tiny and cute!" Williams said as he kissed his forehead.
"Congrats Mr. Williams! And I must say, your wife is a strong woman. Being her first time giving birth, I never knew she could endure such pain before we arrived." The midwife sounds surprised.
"I knew her to be an extraordinary woman! How's she doing right now?" Williams asked with a smile, as he kept on staring at the baby in his hands.
"Well, apart from some little bruises she had, she's perfectly fine. Mr. Williams, there's something you need to know about your wife." The midwife seems hesitant to say it.
"What is it?" Williams was surprised as he saw the worried look on her face.
"Her eyes turned-----," She couldn't finish her sentence before Williams cuts in.
"It's okay, I understand!" Williams quickly cut her words short and immediately mentioned Susan's eyes.
"Hope all is well?" The midwife sounds uneasy.
"Yeah, but I would like you to do something important for me, Ms Lauren. Can you keep whatever you saw here today a secret, please?"
"Hmm, okay! I think we need to take our leave now, but we would be back later in the day to administer some drugs to her." The midwife explained to him, as she prepared to leave.
"Thank you doctor for arriving here on just short notice. I appreciate it!"
"It's alright Mr. Williams, I'm honored to be here. If you don't mind, I would like to leave immediately because I have some patients to attend to at the hospital."
"Of course, you can! See you later, doc." Williams paved the way for her to pass.
As soon as she left, Williams entered the room where Susan is being kept. He turns his glossy eyes to his wife, and in an almost broken voice, he tells her they have a cute son.
"Take him away from me!" Through Susan's exhaustion, she frowned and looked away from the child.
Williams glared at her with a confused expression as he saw his wife's reaction, but didn't say anything. In order not to make her angry any longer, he left the room with the child in his arms.
"What could be happening to her? I thought she would be happy after seeing the child." Williams muttered to himself as he headed to the other room, with a sad expression.
'He's just the replica of Austin!' Susan thought to herself inwardly, and she began to cry.
"I hate you, Austin! I hate you very much!!" She never knew when those words came out of her mouth, while still crying.
After some minutes had passed, Williams, who was already dozing off on the couch, jumped up with fright when he heard the cry of the baby. He quickly rushed over to him and picked him up.
Williams tried playing with the child, but the crying became more severe than before. When he attempted to place one of his right fingers on the cheek of the baby with the hope of playing with him, he saw how eager the child was, to chew the finger.
"He must be hungry!"
Williams walked as fast as he could over to the other room, where Susan is resting. When he stepped inside, he saw that she was already asleep. He was still contemplating whether to wake her up or not when Susan opened her eyes as she heard the baby crying.
"What are you doing here? And why is that thing here also?" Susan, who has barely woken up, sounds so angry when she sets eyes on the baby.
"Point of correction, Susan, he is a child and not a thing! So, tell me, how long do you want to hold on to the past? Even if you are angry with yourself about what happened then, you don't have to transfer all your aggression to this little child, for Christ's sake! He knows nothing about your mistakes! I think he's hungry, so feed him!"
Williams was so pissed off with her attitude and couldn't control his anger anymore. He suddenly placed the baby by her side and walked out of the room with annoyance.
Ever since they got married some months ago, Susan has never seen Williams this angry before. She was stunned by his actions a while ago! After having a second thought about all that Williams said, she took the baby and started feeding him.
As she kept staring at the baby's face, Susan started recalling some of her past…
*Flashback*
"I prefer not to do this, Austin!" Susan's voice breaks slowly as she sits beside him, in a living room.
"Believe me, Susan, this is the best way to make our parents agree to our love. We need something to make us stronger, and tie-down our love for each other. My dad would never disagree with our alliance once you are pregnant because he knew full well how every first child is significant in our family!"
Austin holds her both hands as he pacifies her to do what he thought is the best, at the moment. Susan seems reluctant in agreeing to his suggestion because she knew how cruel her family could be if things don't go their way.
"Regardless of what happens, I promise to stand by you, and even if it has to be my last breath. I will make sure nothing comes between us, even in our next life!" Austin let out a gentle smile when he uttered the last words.
"Aren't you aware that our baby would be so powerful with the fact of you being a strong Vampire, and me being a handsome Alpha!" Austin bragged with laughter.
Susan never said anything, but only smiled at him. She began to ponder over what Austin said about the pregnancy. She was perplexed and didn't know if to give in to his suggestion or not. After thinking about it for a while, she concluded.
"Fine, I will do it!"
Susan finally agrees to proceed with his plan. Austin couldn't control his happiness when he heard "I will do it!"… He instantly hugged her so tight, and placed a kiss on her forehead.
"I love you so much!!" Austin screamed out, with a lot of happiness all written on his delicate handsome face.
Austin pulls her up from the couch and leads the way to the room. On getting to the bedroom, Austin grabbed her hand and pulled her down on the bed.
Her legs went weak as the door closed behind them. She immediately felt Austin's mouth on hers, his lips tasting sweet. She opened her mouth as well and returned the kiss.
At that moment, she felt his hand come up beneath her dress, heard the rustle of material giving way, felt his large warm hand between her legs, ripping aside the cotton panties to caress her vulva. As soon as Austin's hand touched her clitoris, a tremendous flash of desire went through her body.
She put her arms around his neck and hung there as he opened his trousers. Then he placed both hands beneath her bare buttocks and-----------------

"Susan! Susan!! Susan!!!"
Susan, who was deeply in her thoughts, turned her face towards the door when she heard someone calling out her name so loud.
"What are you thinking about?" Williams asked as he moved closer to her.
"Nothing!" Susan answers with a frown.
"Look, the baby is already asleep."
Williams pointed to the baby in her arms. Because of her deep thoughts, she didn't realize that the child had slept. Susan gently lay the baby boy on the bed, beside her.
"I know I was too harsh with what I said then, please forgive me! I never wanted to raise my voice or get you angry in any way. I was just concerned about you and the child." Williams pleaded.
"It's alright, I understand." Susan accepted his apology, and they both embraced each other.
As they hugged, Susan suddenly felt a sharp pain inside her…
