All Ten Toes

Hunnie Inzotta









"Hurry, Fetch a bucket for her!"





"Here, here,

Your Highness!"





Taking the t from Suki with trembling, shaky hands, I fall on Mirah's small couch in her office, clutching my stomach and rubbing in circular patterns.





"Now, tell me what's going on."



I opened my mouth to talk but quickly got shut down by this queasy carnival feeling in my stomach.





"No, not you, you're too out ill." A dry heave escapes right out my mouth after the r she says that, and I grasp the bucket on the ground, vomiting stomach acid.





Gosh, I'm so hungry.





" I-I...

I think Bahm slept on her stomach!

He wouldn't wake up either; who knows how long he's been like that!" Kris blurts frantically. He was very worked up and nervous about this all.







"Oh heavens...I see."









"Come on!

Check the baby!!" Kris' arms wail in the air, and his expression changed to anger.





"Young Master, his heart rate is a bit fast, but it doesn't sound like it's fading," Mirah paces back and forth, examining me, and listening in as Suki begins rubbing her hands soothingly on my back for comfort.







"Can you hear him?"



I finally speak between breaths, wiping my lips and looking at Kris deep in his worried eyes.







"Oh, Hunnie!

Are you feeling alright?

Do you want to lie down?"

I shake my head no while accepting a cookie bar Suki grabbed from a cabinet.







"Ohh, food!

She needs food!" Kris hollers.







"My sisters' are already working on a soup for her, no worries.

MAdaHunnie dear, are you in pain?" Mirah asked, and I pointed to the top of my stomach.







After a few minutes, I could talk without needing to throw up. Mirah gave Kris an ice pack to place on my stomach after I refused to accept her nausea medication. I wanted to be more natural for my baby.







"Are you ready to be examined?

The Ultra waves are ready." Mirah approaches me, and I nod, accepting her hand and walking over to the bed to be looked at when a hiss leaves my mouth once I can't fully swing my legs onto the mattress.





"What's wrong?"





"I don't know. My legs ache badly, as though my joints have been stiff."







"Maybe because of that idiot!

He almost killed his son!"







"Stop!

He'll be furious if he hears you." Suki whines.







"That's if he's even listening!

He has more significant problems to worry about!" Kris says irritatedly.



My eyebrows twist at his reaction. What other big things could Bahm possibly have going on besides the fact he was about to become a father?







The last thing I remembered was Bahm sucking on my neck and making love. I never expected him to fall asleep in the process as I did!







"LOOK!

He has six toes on this foot."





Looking at the screen, an unusual smile creeps onto my face to see my big boy sucking his thumb and the extra toe. boy; I couldn't wait to hold this strong, supernatural baby boy in my hands.







"Wow," Kris croaks, and we all awed him when he began sobbing.





"Awe, Kris, why do you cry?" I asked him with a pout.







"Because... because I'll be an uncle!"







"Uncle?

Kris, you are his father too.."





"No, Hunnie. He can't have two dads, and he'll get confused or even made fun of.

I'll be the uncle!"

He sobs happily and comes into my arms.





Without warning, the baby boy begins kicking powerful blows that even kris looks down. The spurts became more constant until he did a whole karate session, which was painful!





"A.H.H.!

What's wrong?" Wincing in pain, I asked nervously, and Kris's mouth hung open in a panic. Suki then rushes over, placing her hand on my stomach and hushing my stomach.







"Shh, shh, baby!

It's okay; you're safe with mummy.

He's scared; I sense it." She utters.





"Oh my!" Kris says suddenly, alerting us even more.







"I swear I just saw another arm!"



He grabs his hair by the root with a shocked look.





"No, there wasn't!

Don't scare her like that!"



Suki turns and yells at kris.







"See, he's fine.

Just a big boy.

Woah!"



In the middle of the room, Suki portrays a hologram of the inside of my uterus with her magic. He was big, and it seemed like he had just fallen asleep. All his movements ceased.







"Well, I won't hold you any longer, and everything smells fine.

Your blood, and his, is pumping evenly.

Yes, he is relatively large, but you both are still doing fine.

Plus, in three seconds, your stomach will growl."







"W.O.W.

You're that old, huh?" Kris blurt out to Mirah.







"Wow. Alpha Kris.

No hair on your face still, huh?" We all chuckle until a knock on her office door is heard.







"For Your Highness," a small child with fur covering her face and arms proceeds in, placing a bowl on the sink across the way and exits.





Once I get off the bed to sit and eat, the baby starts freaking out, stretching and contouring my insides. My hand came on top like Suki's, and I started talking to him.







"It's Mommy, baby.

Everything is fine.

It'll be okay.

It's okay."





"Maybe he needs to be around his father." Suki says, and I look up at Kris, "Is he awake"?





"I don't know, can't feel him, remember?"





Once I was halfway done with my bowl of soup, we decided to head back; having already been gone for an hour, I wouldn't want Bahm to be upset.



Suki trails her hands in the air after poking her fingertip with a pin. A gold oval silhouette appears within seconds, and she gestures for us to go in. Kris steps inside, holding my hands behind him before he suddenly lets us go.

I fixed my robe, tightened the ropes, and tucked my curly, dry hair behind my ears. I needed to shower after that jelly on my stomach; It stunk!



Speaking of stink, what is that putrid smell?



It smells like blood, and my stomach churns at the scene. Great, I have to plug my nose. I hate how this pregnancy made my nose so sensitive.

Kris' P.O.V.





Finally, I stepped into Suki's old ass portal that felt like I was walking into the clouds!

Immediately arriving in Bahm's bathroom, a cold shiver ran down my spine, and goosebumps coated the back of my neck. Something is off.



I search the view before me and through the bloodied bathroom door frame. Bodies on top of bodies, covering the way out the door and even beyond the middle of the room.



What is this, some sick joke? They smelled dead.





"What's wrong, Kris" Hunnie says from behind me.

I was speechless. What the fuck has happened here!'





Hunnie gasps and pulls the back of my t-shirt. "What is this?" What are they doing," she whispers frighteningly and begins wrapping her arm around my back.





"They're dead, Hunnie."

I continued to step over the bodies blocking our way, and she whimpered, turning around. I take her hand to help her step over and into the room.



"Who did this?" I shush her when I think the scent of fresh blood reaches my nose and a squirmish noise attracts my ears.



Hunnie continued to hold onto my shirt in fear as I walked forwards, eying my offensive left side with bodies on the library table and even under.

Men and women of all maids, wolves, and vampires that I recognized were all drained and dead.



My hands go up, halting Hunnie behind me, and I peek around the corner of Bahm's tall bed, seeing a figure on the ground on all fours. The hairs on my body rise all over once the bloodied person stands from their position.



I grab Hunnie to my side, taking steps backward when she begins questioning what I'm doing and shrieks.





"BAHM!!!"





"SHH!!" I hissed



Bahm turned slowly to face us.

I knew it was him right away.

Blood dripped from his mouth down to his chin and chest, then fell over his pants.

Hunnienis gasps, and that's when I tucked her behind me to protect her. Something wasn't right with him. Why has he drained all of these beings?





"You!

I've waited."

He says in a snarl-ish voice. To our horror, he smiles, showing his crimson-red teeth. His scent was different, smelling of hot firey smoke along with many other types of blood that coated him.





"BAHM!"Leolo happens to slide through the doors, frightening Hunnie behind me as she wraps her arms around me even tighter.



Bahm turns to face Leolo, and I take that opportunity to proceed to the backdoor of his room, but suddenly I'm jerked backward by the back of my neck!





"Bahm, what are you doing?" Hunnie yells before I'm pushed to the ground.



Forcing myself to get up quickly, I see Leolo tussling with Bahm against the wall, throats in hand and canines bearing.







"IT DOESN'T SMELL LIKE HIM, KRIS!

LEAVE!"

Leolo yells, holding Bahm by his throat as Bahm did to him.







"I'll be-rid you, vampire!"

A vicious snarl leaves Bahm just as Hunnie asks me what's happening.





"JUST GO!"

I push her towards the door, practically sliding her on the floor and out into the halls. Suddenly, debris caves around us, and I bury Hunnie's head in my chest after cringing at the commotion.





Leolo was on the ground across from us now, then Bahm rushed on top of him, struggling to pull his neck into his mouth.
