After that night Remmick has been keeping a close eye on you, worried. The thought of losing you has taken over his mind and it makes him break inside. Sure, you two didnât meet like most folk doâ but you are everything to him and more.
Youâre still feeding and coming home, every nightâ covered in blood. He grins, seeing that you did go feed. What you didnât tell him was that you couldnât keep it down. Every time you would feed, it would taste awful. The worst blood youâve ever tasted and then youâd throw it up a few minutes later, it would come out blackâlooking like tar.
It does worry you, but youâve figured itâs from not eating for a while previously. You donât want to worry Remmick, it just isnât necessary.
Remmick comes home, humming Sammieâs song. Full of energy and still reeling from his feed.
âSomebody take me..â
Youâre in the living room, sitting in the rocking chairâ looking like death warmed up. Your dress is covered in black blood, you look barely functioning. Youâre completely unconscious.
At first he thinks youâre asleep, he changes his clothes â talking to you from the other room.
âHow did your feed go?ââ
âMine was okay, it was some lady from the outskirts of town. She started screamin and almost got me caught.â He chuckles.
Heâs met with complete silence.
He comes over to you, figuring that youâre asleep and is about to pick you up out of the chair to take you to bed. He notices the black blood on your dress.
âThe hell?â He mumbles to himself.
He touches the blood, rubbing it on his fingers and brings it up to his noseâ smelling it. It smells putrid, absolutely foul.
He panics.
âBaby?â He says rubbing your hand and tapping your face.
âBaby, come onââ
âWake up for me.â
Your skin is hot, like youâre on fire and your eyes have changed colors, theyâre a grey color instead of brown.
He lifts you up and lays you on the floor, tears in his eyes.
âBaby, please wake up.â He pleads.
Heâs terrified of losing you and so upset with that you didnât feed.
Vampires need blood, when you deprive your body of itâ it goes haywire. You can lose your hearing, your skin becomes warm, your eyes change colors, your fangs can break and you can even get a cycle. Your body canât handle going without the blood.
Youâre unconscious for three days, Remmick had you in the bed and was beside himself the entire time, he was worried sick. Heâd even went to find stack and Mary, but he had no luckâ they were in a different part of Louisiana now.
He paced the floor beside you, constantly hoping for a change. He prayed and begged god to heal you, donât let you suffer for things heâd doneâ how you didnât deserve this fate and he forced it on you. He kept a mason jar full of blood from his feedings, waiting on you to wake. Hoping that you would be better, you needed to get better.
You woke up on the 3rd night, hot and confused. It was nighttime, you could see the moon from your windowâ but no sign of Remmick.
âRemmy.â You call out, voice hoarse.
Remmick doesnât respond back, heâs gone out to feed.
You lay there trying to piece together what had happened, but your mind is blank. Last thing you remember is feeding on a policeman and stumbling home. You assume not being able to keep down any blood has gotten the best of you and now Remmick knows.
You fall back asleep, feeling exhausted.
When you wake up again, Remmick is cuddled up beside you with his head on your chestâ sleeping like a baby.
You move your arm, rubbing his head.
âRemmick.â You whisper.
His eyes open and he jumps up, looking at you and grabbing you.
âOh, honey. Iâm so glad youâre awake.â He cries.
He looks you overâ your skin not as warm, your eyes back to their brown color and you look better.
He gets off the bed grabbing the mason jar of blood, handing it to you.
âHere, drink this.â He demands.
You grab it, opening the lid and chugging it. It tastes the exact way itâs supposed to. It did have a bit of a bitter taste to it, but it was way better then what you had been drinking.
Remmick watches you, making sure everything is okay.
âIs it good? Are you going to throw up?â He asks, anxiously toying with his wedding band.
You finish chugging it, handing him the jar and feeling so much better.
âThat was delicious.â You laugh, wiping your mouth.
He hugs you, holding your head and kissing you. Feeling so relieved.
Two days later.
Remmick wants to go to New Orleans to get you looked over by a healer, someone that specializes in your kind. You pack your suitcase, load up the car and get on your way.
New Orleans is busy and bustling with people. You stay with an old friend of Remmickâs â a gay French vampire, his black husband and their vampire daughter. Youâre having fun, the music, the peopleâ it feels magical almost. On your third night while walking arm in arm, laughing and having funâ you run into Stack and Mary.
Stack whistles, grinning.
âMary, look who it is.â
Mary smiles and pulls you into a hug.
âItâs been too long. You look good.â
You curtsy, playing around.
âYou donât look so bad yourself.â
You and Mary make note of Remmick and Stack not speaking to each other, making things awkward.
Mary sighs, folding her arms.
âAre you two really going to act like this?â She questions.
Remmick stares and shrugs.
âIâm not acting like anything.â He replies.
Stack sees the look on Maryâs face.
âLook, I apologize for how it went the last time we saw each other. It shouldnât have been handled that way.â
You nudge Remmick.
âIâm sorry too and Iâm sorry for how our last hunt went.â He concedes.
Stack claps his hands together, rubbing them.
âSpeaking of hunting, we should do our hunt here. Weâre all in the same place and itâs perfect timing.â He laughs, grinning.
You all glance at each other.
âA hunt here?â You ask.
âI mean, sure. Why the hell not?ââ
Mary interrupts him, with a frown on her face.
âStack, thereâs no way we could get away with that here.â
Remmick places his finger on his lip, thinking about the idea.
âWe could get away with it, we just have to choose the right folk.â He chimes in.
After more heated conversations over it, everyone gets on the same page.
For this yearâs hunt, you guys will be performing as a group at a rich plantation party. It wasnât anyoneâs favorite ideaâbut it seemed the most sensible.
You reminded them that this wasnât exactly under the radar, but they didnât mind, especially considering theyâre pretty positive this is just a big group of bigots. Youâll probably make a lot of money, but the money doesnât matterâ the amount of bodies does.
The song youâre performing is âWill ye go, Lassie go?â
Everyone is immediately iffy about it, but Remmick is persuasive. He is able to get everyone to understand the song, notes, stay on beat and how to play the instruments.
The four of yâall are ready.
The night of the hunt..
The group is looking fantastic. You have on a black dress, Mary has on a pink one, Remmick and stack have on Black suits. Everyone has to look the part and fit the theme for tonight. You guys look damn good.
The house is bustling with people, rich and very fancy. Someone playing the piano, glasses of champagne going around and so much talking.
Mary whispers to Stack, trying to keep a smile her face.
âDonât pay these folks any mind, regardless of what they say or think.â
Remmick stops us, getting everyoneâs attention.
âJust smile, nod and letâs get this show on the road. Weâre gonna feast tonight.â He grins.
Remmick walks over to a man by the stage, letting him know weâre here.
You talk to Stack and Mary while yâall wait.
âAre yâall hungry?â You ask, eyeing all the prospects.
Stack grins, gold tooth showing.
âIâm starving. A room full of bigots is a fine meal. I have no remorse for what weâre going to do.â
Mary giggles, wiping the corner of her mouth.
âIâm drooling just thinking about it.â
People are staring, probably because you four arenât the usual kind of folks they have here. A few times when they stare too hard, you would flash your eye color startling them.
Remmick waves yâall over and you take your places on stage.
You perform âWill Ye Go, Lassie go?â and they go crazy for it, they move and stare in awe. They even put money in a hat for your act. You hate it, you hate them and how stuck up they are. Turning their noses up at anyone who isnât one of them, watching yâall like livestock.
You finish the songâ the house erupts with claps and cheers, exactly what Remmick said would happen.
Everything is going fine, yâall stand by the barâ talking amongst yourselves.
A man approaches you and Remmick, he seems nice at first and offers to buy you a drinkâ you decline, but he keeps talking.
âYou sure are pretty, darlin.â The man says, leaning into your face.
You nod and grin, trying not to be disgusted.
âThank you.â
He leans over, tapping Remmickâs shoulder.
âHow much does she cost for the night?â He inquires, pulling out money.
âScuse me?â Remmick responds, with an eyebrow raised.
The man stands there, staring at him and confused on what he said wrong.
âIs she free?â He chuckles.
Remmick grabs the manâs neck and points at you.
âThatâs my wife.â Remmick answers, slamming the manâs head into the bar.
He glances at Stack and Mary giving them the go ahead, they head to front doors.
You smile at the man, eyes turning a red color and drool seeping out of the corner of your mouth. Commotion behind you is followed by Panic, Mary and Stack locked the doors â trapping them inside with us.
Remmick stands on the bar and shouts.
âLadies and gentlemen, calm down. Donât be frightenedââ
Screams interrupt him, when they see Stack and Mary walking towards themâ covered in blood.
âMay god have mercy on all of you tonight.â Remmick chuckles, his Irish accent fully out.
He launches himself off of the bar counter onto a man in the crowd, tearing into his flesh. You laugh and grab the middle aged woman, whoâs running to the door.
Her blood is sweet, ike cherryâs and syrup. She cries for a bit and then stops. The crying doesnât bother you anymore, it did at firstâ but you just tune it out now.
You catch yourself moaning as you drain her, you canât help it. It just tastes so good and it fills you in a way nothing else does.
Within 15 minutes everyone in the house was dead, yâall are full and happy. Stack and Mary are taking valuables and money, you and Remmick dancing aroundâ high on life. Remmick pours alcohol on the bodies and lights a match.
As you guys walk away, the house is engulfed in flames behind you. This is probably your favorite hunt thus far. From time to time, you like to play with your food and that was a perfect way to do it.
After you guys get back, Stack and Mary head to where theyâre stayingâ hugging yâall and saying that theyâd see you later.
The roads are empty and most people are inside. Youâre almost back to where youâre staying, holding hands and feeling romantic. Remmick turns to you, kissing you and taking in this feeling.
âI love you, Mo GhrĂĄ.â His hand caressing your face.
âI love you too, Remmy. More than you can know.â
Finally things are back to normal.
Your smile leaves your face when a sharp pain radiates through your body. You double over in pain, feeling dizzy and scaring Remmick. As he grabs you, you vomit all over himâ black blood.
You pass out, collapsing into his arms.
âNo! No! No!ââ
âBaby, stay with me.â
Remmick rushes you to the healer, banging on her door. He rabidly explains your situation as he brings you in, laying you on her table.
âCalm down, young man. I will look her over.â She insists with a thick, German accent.
Remmick paces beside the table, holding your hand as she looks over you. She prods you, checks out your eyes, your fangs and the blood on Remmickâs shirt.
She approaches Remmick, wiping her hands.
âNot feeding was a bad idea. Her body is having issues maintaining the blood now, it should stop soonâ but if it doesnât then she will eventually die.â
Remmick couldâve fell to his knees with that news, he canât lose you.
âAre you sure that it will stop?â He stammers.
She looks at him, glances at you.
â50/50.â
âFuck!â Remmick shouts, tears in his eyes.
The woman walks over to you with a heated jar, some sort of concoction in it. She opens your mouth and pours some of it down your throat. You practically wake up screaming, you projectile vomit all over yourself and the table. Only to pass out again.
âTsk, tsk. You silly girl, starving yourself.â The woman comments.
She still seems unsure as to what is the root cause.
Remmick watches, trying to stay calm and be there for you.
As She is about to tell him that she canât do anything else, she stops dead in her tracks. She glances at him, running back over to you. She smells a certain scent radiating off of you, very faintâ but she recognizes it.
She gasps, scaring Remmick.
âWhatâs happening? Is she okay?â He mutters.
She walks over to him, pulling her glasses off of her face.
âHer not eating has caused problems, it keeps her from maintaining the bloodâ but thatâs not the issue. Sheâs pregnant and her body is fighting it, thatâs why the blood smells awful. She is not meant to carry a life.â
Remmick stares at her like she was speaking another language.
âSheâs what?â He asks, needing her to repeat herself.
âPregnant.â She says as she walks away, letting out a sigh.
âHow.. how can that be? Sheâs been a vampire for 10 years now.â
The woman shakes her head.
âI couldnât tell you. I guess god likes to laugh occasionally.â
âWill she .. she be okay?â He stutters.
âIâve only ever seen this twice before.â She replies.
âAnd?â
âTheyâre both deadââ
âHer not feeding and bringing her body so close to death was very stupid.â
Remmick feels a pit in his stomach. Heâs somehow gotten you pregnant and youâre dying simultaneously.
You wake up, groaning. You have a headache from hell and a stomachache. Remmick rushes to help you as you pull yourself off of the table.
âEasy there, baby.â
âWhat happened?â You ask, rubbing your head.
âUmââ
âYouâre pregnant.â Remmick spits out.
âHuh?â You respond, trying to process that.
âApparently, we made a baby.â
âThatâs not possibleââ you mumble.
The woman interrupts you and gets the door for you two.
âYouâre certainly pregnant. Your body is fighting the pregnancy and your body will win this fight.â
âThis pregnancy will kill you, if you donât rid yourself of it.â She warns.
You and Remmick walk outside of the womanâs house, silence lingering. You hear the door slam behind you.
You look at him, still grappling with the news. Heâs not happy, he looks angry.
You could actually have a family with Remmick, potentiallyâ or you could go back to dreaming of the day youâd have a baby.
You walk back in silence, not sure what to make of this situation. Remmick wouldnât even look at you on the walk.
When you get to the door, Remmick grabs your armâ getting your attention.
âI hope you know weâre getting rid of it. I wonât lose you to it, I wonât.â He protests.
You stare at him, frightened by how heâs acting.
âRemmy, itâs ours..â
âI donât fucking want it!â He barks. Making you yank your arm from his grasp.
âAre youââ
âAre you fucking serious, Remmick?â You scoff.
He puts his hands over his head, staring at you.
âVery serious, sweetheart. Youâre not dying for no fucking baby.â
âI donât think itâs up to you.â You chide.
Your remark grabs his attention. He walks over to you, his fangs out and eyes red.
âDonât push me, honey. You wonât like the results.â
âIâll do it without you. I donât need your fucking permission or your help!â You shout, throwing your wedding band at him.
He picks it up and grabs your face, making you look into his eyes.
He whispers in your ear.
âIf you decide to go through with this, Iâm gonna go pay little Sammie a visit.â
Tears fall down your face.
âNo!ââ
âYou wouldnât fucking dare.â You cry.
âTry me, I want you to. I will make a believer out of you.â Remmick chuckles, licking the tears off your face.
He lets go of your face and you walk away, crying and distraught.
You love him, but what if heâs wrong? What if you can survive the pregnancy? Will he really go hurt Sammie? What if you do die?
You need to clear your head and think. You want a baby and to live, but maybe you canât have both.
