Carrying My Baby
The sky was steeped in the truth of night, a light mist hovering over the peaks, and dew caressing the cool pine leaves. Amidst this stillness stood Kayla—a budding Luna, waiting at a crossroads in the heart of the forest. Her white cotton shirt had become almost transparent, clinging to a body throbbing with heat and dread, until half of her moonlit chest was visible.
A soft gasp escaped her lips, simply remembering why she was here: to carry their child, to fulfill the herd's prophecy, to save it. Her heart leaped in her chest like a trapped bird, fear and desire vying within.
Suddenly, there was a giant thump. Jackson, the strong, dead man, approached slowly and intensely. The slanting moonlight gave him a silvery aura, his muscles and the aura of hardness around him a deadly allure. From the fur on his shoulder to the fur on his hands, he looked as if he had stepped out of a fairy tale—a beast and a master at once.
He looked at her with a heart-rending gaze. It wasn't one of interest, but rather a first sense of feverish possession. He took two steps forward, until the moonlight advanced as if to illuminate them. He stood before her, then said in his rough voice, "Are you ready to conceive?"
The silence stretched. Their gazes met, igniting the ground beneath their feet. Mer hovered between his imagination and her reality: Would she succeed? Would she allow it? But the key to the answer lay in the heart of the herd, in its warm tone—as if it were simultaneously the sound of danger and invitation.
She smiled at him with a simmering calm, trembling:
"Yes... for our herd... and for you."
They stood close under the moonlight; their foreheads close together, as if the universe had stopped to hear the first heartbeats stabbing through the blood.
He pulls her closer to his body—the warmth of Jackson's body flows through her veins, as if melting her from within. His hands touch the texture of her forehead, affirming security and promise:
Kya... you are Luna, you are potential... and you will bear our child.
His voice penetrates her ear, melting her resistance. Longing flows.
Gradually, his hands moved down her neck, then down her waist. They felt each other's breaths; Kayla closed her eyes, hearing her heartbeat echo in his ear, as dewdrops fell on her wet body.
She raised her arm to place her hand over his heart. She whispered,
"Just keep me here... don't leave me."
They fought, spat out the long silence until the scent of fur and silver rain enveloped them. That moment when the lines dissolve—between inhabitant and animal, mind and emotion, need and power.
His lips moved closer to her neck, escaping with longing:
"You're my queen, Kayla... and you'll be the mother of his child."
Her lips curled in ecstasy and power: her sense of possession equaled his excitement. A light kiss on her neck aroused her like a flame igniting her inner ignition.
She looked at him with her eyes locked:
His desire was revealed in her gaze.
The security of the herd was in his voice.
Then she was held in his arms, and she felt every pulse of his—and on behalf of the Earth, as if she were the pillow of the moon, wrapped in it.
He placed her on his shoulders, and they walked deeper into the forest (behind them, the moonlight "clumped" like a round sun). The whispers of the night echoed:
"I will always carry you... until the very last moment."
His words echoed all of humanity's words: he was her need, she was his, and the longing that would translate into a moon within her and into a body that discovered with every heartbeat that the moment was ripe.
They continued walking in silence, from them pulsating the universe, and with every step, Kayla revealed herself more—not of her body, but of her desire to conquer the universe.
At the end of the scene, they stop on a small hill overlooking the moon, as if the night sun were rising here. He embraces her tightly, his head resting on her elbow: "Here, our story will begin... with the spirit of the herd and the pulse of madness," the forest wind says, as if the moon is watching over them.
🖤 The first chapter has ended—two bodies and two hearts soaring above the earth, heading towards the birth of a relationship that will create a legend.
