It was late in the night as a woman screamed, loudly. Her dirty blonde hair was matted to her head by sweat as she lay on a hospital bed. A blonde haired doctor stood by her bed looking down at her with sad and compassionate golden eyes. In the hallway stood 10 vampires that all had bright red eyes. Six of the older vampires stood in pairs. The men's arms were wrapped around their wives. All but one pair. The blondes stood apart yet together. The woman was looking at her husband sadly as he glared at the door that the screaming woman was behind.
"Do you love her?" the blonde woman's voice was weak as she spoke to her husband.
Sharp and angry red eyes looked down at her. The man growled before he sighed and calmed a little at his wife's scared look. "No she was just a human whore. I have no feelings towards her." the man went back to brooding silently as the other vampires looked at him.
"Would you love it?"
That had been the answer he has been asking himself since everyone has found out about this problem. Would he love it? Would he be able to love a part human child? Would he love his child that wasn't birthed by his mate?
He had no answer to that question or any other question involving his child.
The blonde woman sighed as her husband glared at the door once more as the woman screamed.
The door open at the vampire doctor walked out of the room. "Would you all like to be in the room when the child comes?"
Everyone but the brooding vampire gave an answer. The angry vampire strode into the room with his head held up high and an angry glare on his handsome face. The blonde woman on the bed looked up with crystal blue eyes as he walked in. She whispered his name and held out her hand. He glared at her even more before he stood with his back leaning on the wall behind him.
Another scream was ripped from the woman as the doctor walked to her bed once more. He went to set up her legs for her to push but there was a loud ripping sound coming from her. Every vampire watched amazed as the child ripped its way out of the woman's stomach. The blonde human was automatically killed as the newborn sat where the woman's stomach used to be.
The baby looked up at its father with bright violet eyes. Its small body was sitting peacefully on the dead human's spine as the baby sucked on its thumb. Its blonde hair was stained red from the human's blood. The doctor carefully tried to the child from the body but the child scraped the doctor on the face. As the doctor dropped the baby, he held his face shocked that it hurt. The baby went back to sitting peacefully in the hole of the stomach, staring intently at its father.
"The baby wants you, my love." The blonde vampire said to her husband.
She was ignored at the blonde male looked down at his child. The baby raised one hand as its other hand was being sucked into its mouth. The baby flexed its fingers begging its father to come to it.
The man sighed and walked over to his child. He lifted the baby from the stomach and looked into its eyes. The man felt his cold dead heart warm at his child. He looked down and smiled as he saw he had a daughter. A beautiful deadly baby girl. He brought the girl close and held her in his arms like a real father should.
His wife stood leaning against his side to look at her daughter. Yes her daughter. The woman knew she would do anything to protect her daughter. She already loved the child as the baby looked at her with innocent violet eyes.
"Why are her eyes violet?" The woman asked as she gave the child her finger. The child squeezed the finger before biting at it. The woman smiled at her daughter before looking at the doctor.
"If she was fully human, her eyes would be blue. So since she is half human half vampire, her eye colors mixed together."
"Good, that would make her even more unique." An average build man with almost translucent skin with long black hair spoke as he looked at his newborn niece.
"She is already mated." A soft male voice spoken. The man was in his late 40s, if he was human. He has black hair with an expressionless face, even as he held his wife with one arm and stared at his niece.
The blonde vampire's head snapped up from looking at his daughter to glare at his older brother. "Who?"
"Relax, Caius. He is part of our guard and is your favorite one at that." Marcus spoke to the blonde with carefully spoken words.
Caius turned to look at the tall vampire in the corner of the room. The vampire male was 6'7" tall with a muscular body and having a slightly olive complexion which looks odd combined with his chalky pallor. He has short, cropped, black hair and bright red eyes as he looked down at the child in Caius's arms.
Caius could see the soft look in the violent vampire guard and knew that his daughter would be loved and well cared for by her mate.
"Felix!"
The giant looked at his blonde master who waved his hand, commanding without words for Felix to come towards him. Felix walked over to the new parents slowly and stood in front of the blonde couple. The baby was then placed into his large arms. The baby girl curled up to her large mate. She closed her eyes and went into a peaceful sleep and her mate rubbed a hand over her bloody hair softly.
"What are you going to name her, Caius?" Didyme asked as she moved closer to her mate.
"Adriana Contessa Volturi." Caius spoke softly as he didn't want to awaken his daughter.
"That sounds beautiful, Caius." Athenodora said to her husband as she watched the usually silent and angry guard with her daughter.
"Wait, there is one more." Marcus stated with his head tilted, puzzled. This was unheard of. "She has two mates." Everyone but the sleeping baby looked at Marcus.
"Who is it, Brother?" Aro spoke as he tightened his hold on his mate. Sulpicia grabbed her husband's hand and squeezed, worried. She and Aro were worried that this might cause a fight between the two males.
"Demetri."
Felix turned to look at his best friend and saw that the shorter guard was already looking at him. The older vampires were looking back and forth as the other two guards stepped in between the best friends.
Adriana somehow felt the tension in the room and awoken with a loud cry. Athenodora took the crying baby from Felix's arms as she and Didyme tried to relax the baby.
"She felt the tension between her mates. Adriana doesn't want the two of you to fight." The blonde doctor, whom everyone in the room forgot about, said. Carlisle handed a bottle filled with blood to the new mother and walked back to the wall.
Felix and Demetri looked at Adriana before looking at each other. They both nodded their heads in a mutual agreement. Demetri walked over and stood next to Felix as they both watched their mate feed for the first time. Adriana opened her eyes once she was done eating and Athenodora gasped at the vibrant violet that was her daughter's eyes. They seem to glow with fullness and happiness. The baby burped softly before going back to sleep.
"Why don't you women go with Jane, Heidi and Chelsea to get Adriana's room all set up with everything she will need?" Aro said with a smile.
"Do you want me to go with them, Master Aro?" Alec spoke as his twin stopped staring at the now sleeping baby in her Queen's arms.
"Yes Alec, go with them and look out for the women. Felix and Demetri will be staying here if you need them." Alec nodded before him and his sister walked out of the room. The wives kissed their husbands goodbye before Athenodora handed the sleeping baby to her father.
Caius walked with his daughter out into the throne room with Felix and Demetri right behind him. As the three Kings sat on the throne Felix stood on the left side of Caius's throne while Demetri stood on the right side. Demetri stood like the rest of the guards, with both hands locked behind his back while Felix stood with his arms crossed over his massive chest. Both of the guards had an angry look to their face as any guard got to close to Adriana and Caius.
Caius knew that his daughter will never be unprotected as the two guards stood over his throne glaring at everyone who passes his throne. Caius accepted that his daughter has two mates and he accepted that her mates are Felix and Demetri. Caius could accept all of this as he looked down at his daughter who was sleeping peacefully in his arms. He saw a small smile on her face as she clutched her father's finger in her small fist.
This little girl is his everything. This little girl is the only person that has fully melted the vicious king's heart, not even his mate could do that. Adriana is all that Caius will live for now and Caius is going to protect his daughter until the day he dies.
