Technoblade x Pregnant!Reader: Protective Blood God (Fluff)
The chilling sounds of hounds howling and barking was enough to keep her on her toes. Her limbs were aching and her lungs were burning, still (Y/n) pushing forward. Her shoulder had been shot with an arrow, her side was bleeding from just barely missing a slice from a sword, and her left leg had teeth marks from the dogs. Moving forward was difficult but her and her unborn child were going to survive.
A raven flew past her before cawing at her and turning. Praying to the Gods that the raven would go to Phil, meaning Techno would be there soon. A whistle of an arrow sounded before she gave a scream. The arrow pierced her right thigh making it even harder to move, drawing a whimper from her throat. In a matter of seconds the hounds went from moving towards her to yelping and running. Looking up she was greeted with the sight of her boyfriend, Technoblade. His look was dark and menacing, a silent promise to murder everyone.
"Come on (Y/n), let's get you on Carl so I can get you back to the cabin. Your wounds need care as soon as possible." Philza calmly said while helping her up and on to Techno's horse. He joined her, sitting behind her to make sure she wouldn't fall. Once they were out of sight, terrified and pain filled screams echoed throughout the forest.
A murder of crows and a unkindness of ravens all joined in to one mass. All calling out as bodies dropped for them to feast upon. (Y/n) had lost track of time hoping to feel her baby move and before she knew it they were at the cabin. Phil gave her full support, moving her to sit in front of the fire. As gently as he could, Philza began treating her wounds. Her hand meanwhile gently rubbed her small baby bump, a soft kick telling her that the baby was safe.
"He and I both will protect you two." Philza spoke softly worried of startling the young mother any further. She numbly nodded letting the elytrian hybrid clean her wounds. Taking his time to clean the bites, pulling the arrow in her thigh out and cleaning it as well. Using a splash healing potion to close the wounds and heal without leaving to much of a mark. Moving to her shoulder, Phil made quick work of removing the arrow from there as well. Quickly moving to clean and pouring more of the splash healing potion.
"Come on mate let's get you and the little one in a nice hot bath to relax, alright?" Philza asked lightly pulling her up carefully. With a slow nod (Y/n) let him lead her to the bathroom, letting her sit down while he filled the tub with hot water. Making sure the water wasn't too hot but just right for her to soak. Helping her remove her clothes before lowering her into the water, gently kissing her head before moving to leave.
Philza almost jumped out of his skin when he saw Technoblade standing by the entrance of the cabin. Blood splattered across his body and two ravens, both splattered with blood as well, sitting on his shoulders. Taking a breath he watched as a baby raven jumped on to Techno's finger. Slowly Techno looked to Phil, waiting to hear how his mate and child were.
"Relax mate, I took care of her wounds and I have her soaking in a bath now. We'll need to keep an eye on her and the baby, being hunted down like that can cause issues." He explained moving to fix tea. Techno gave a near silent sound of agreement before shrugging off his armor, moving to join his mate in her bath.
°•°•°Technoblade's POV°•°•°
As I shrugged off my armor the ravens quickly hopped off, moving towards Phil, no doubt telling him how violent I had been. Moving towards bathroom I was greeted with sight of my beautiful mate. She smaller body resting in the large tub, her hand softly rubbing over where our child rested. Her (e/c) eyes locked with mine. I could see all the exhaustion and fear still pooled in them.
I had a feeling this could happen, I feared the second the village knew she was carrying my child they would hunt her down. My movements were slow but steady as I approached her form resting in the water. Kneeling by the tub I softly pressed my hand to her stomach rubbing soft circles on the skin. (Y/n) reached her hands out to me, I shifted my body so I was leaning down just for her to reach me. She lightly wiped away the blood on my cheeks before pulling me towards her.
Her soft lips pressed against my own a few times pulling a soft snort of content from me. (Y/n) smiled and woved her hands through my hair pulling more little squeals and snorts from me. She always enjoyed the piglin sounds that came out naturally, much to my displeasure. I'll leave the protest of her bringing to sounds out for the time, it was making her smile.
As soft thump was felt against my palm, due to it still resting on her stomach. Shifting forward I gently pressed kisses to where I felt the little one move. (Y/n)'s hand gently tugged me closer causing me to look up at her.
"Join me? Please." Her voice was softer than normal, probably just as worn out as she physically was. Offering a slight smile, I shifted to slide in behind her form. Her back pressed against my chest, her position was perfect for me to run my fingers through her (h/l) (h/c) hair. We let silence take over both of us enjoying the hot bath and each others company.
I took notice of her soft breathing and her completely relaxed form. Smiling I rubbed my hand over her baby bump once more. Whispering promises in piglin though admittedly I was unsure if our little one would hear me. Nevertheless I whispered hoping not to disturb my mate in the process. I jolted giving a warning growl as the bathroom door cracked open.
"Relax mate it's just me. I brought you extra clothes, there is stew and honey tea on the table for the both of you." Phil's voice lightly echoed along the walls as he sat the clothes intended for her and I on the counter. Thanking him in a slightly hushed tone not wanting to wake (Y/n) just yet. He was right, she needed to eat and drink the tea before she could rest properly.
"Darling, I need you to eat. I promise that after we can stay in bed as long as you'd like." I promised lightly stirring her awake. She groaned softly before easing herself in to more of a sitting position. Moving first I made quick work of dressing myself before supporting her as she rose out of the tub.
Carefully drying her body off lightly kissing the faint scarring from the hounds and arrows. Making slow and tender work of dressing her in one of my tops, so that she would be comfortable. Before lifting her smaller form, I carried her to the table. She softly thanked Phil for the tea and stew before slowly eating.
I waited for a moment, watching her eat the food before eating my own. (Y/n) taking small sips of the tea before leaning against me. Glancing at her exhausted form, taking a slight peek at her near empty bowl and nearly finished tea I deemed it to be enough for now. Before I could get up to get our bowls and cups Philza grabbed them offering a smile.
Lifting her small frame I carefully made it up to my room, gently easing her body down on to the bed. Quickly we had settled in and fallen to sleep, her body nestled against me. The following days Philza and I kept a close eye on (Y/n)'s progress. Every so often she would flinch in discomfort, but would carry on after a few moments. It wasn't until she was petting Carl that Phil pulled me to the side.
"What she is experiencing is called Braxton Hicks, they are false contractions. It's the way her body gets ready for labor, we need to train one of the dogs to follow her. They need to know to alert us if she goes in to labor and we aren't around." Philza explained both of us watching Carl lightly nudge his nose against her stomach. Moving towards the dogs, I gathered one of the younger ones and plenty of rotten flesh for him to eat.
As I returned the dog quickly moved to greet (Y/n), his tail wagging quickly as she began loving on him. Catching her slight shiver I led her back inside, the dog hot on our heels. Easing her on the couch I moved to prepare her some hot stew. Taking a glance towards her small form on the couch, I watched the dog tug a blanket towards her before nudging it towards her.
Softly giggle at the dog, (Y/n) gently pet him before wrapping herself in the blanket. The dog easing himself to lay at her feet, his head resting on her a bit. Philza stepped back inside placing the wood in the fireplace. Making sure the wood lit in to a strong fire, smiling as he took notice of the dog and (Y/n).
"He was a pup when (Y/n) found him. She raised him so I'm not to shocked that he clings to her." I mumbled catching Phil's attention before pouring the stew into a bowl for her. Philza nodded clearly remembering how well she had taught him during the dogs up bringing. Placing the warm bowl in her small hands I eased to sit beside her, letting her take her time eating.
I gently kissed the top of her head whispering that Phil and I were going to feed the animals and makes sure they were all up. Giving a small nod that she heard me, I gestured for Phil to come along so we could finish our chores. It didn't take long before we had finished and return to the warmth of the cabin. The gentle tone of (Y/n)'s voice singing softly from the couch caused a feeling of peace to wash over me.
Stepping over I knelt beside her and began gently rubbing my hand over her swollen stomach. Her smooth smaller hand grabbed my hand, guiding it just below her belly button where our baby sat. After a few moments a thump was felt making me smile. Tapping my finger back in the same place I felt the thump, within minutes another kick from our child returned.
•°•°•Philza's POV•°•°•
Ruffling my wings to knock any snow off of my feathers with hopes of not getting any damp feathers. With a soft sigh I turned around and took in the sight before me. There on his knee was Techno cradling the spot his and (Y/n)'s baby sat. I chuckling at the domestic sighting in front of me, the man known as the Blood God and known for his violence so at peace with his mate.
As I watched the sight in front of me I took notice of him tapping his mates stomach before the smile on his brightened further. Wondering closer I leaned against the side of the couch watching Techno's little antics with their baby. (Y/n) gave small giggles before stopping Techno from continuing the little game. Before he could ask if she was alright a small yawn left her lips making me laugh.
"Both of you head to bed, I'll let the crows know to keep watch for the night." I offered softly rubbing (Y/n)'s shoulder. With a sound of agreement Techno gathered the cup of water (Y/n) had gotten and moved to clean it. I shifted so I could help (Y/n) stand, once she was up she gave a groan as she stretched out before pulling me into a hug.
"Thank you Phil, please get some good rest." She whispered against my shoulder making me smile in return before I agreed and sent her to bed with Techno. Looking back at the crows that sat at the window and nodding, with a caw they took off to relay the message.
