New Kingdom

Larien slightly glared up at him leaning her head on his shoulder. "I wasn't locked down and almost killed by vamps when I was little..." she said. "Storms are the only things that scare me.." She hated admitting it, but it was hard for her to hide it. She could draw a sword and fight monsters mountains high, but she couldn't face a storm without screaming in fear. She was known by her people as the fearless princess. Fearless... Ha... yeah right... Larien grumbled inside her head.

"Relax...and dont you even start to think like that...Its not weekess to be afraid of something..everyone has a fear..even your father." Raito said as they made it into their bedroom. then walked over and Laied her down, setting at her feet. then a spider crawled down and rested, hanging about 2 inches from his face, which went pail. "a...a..aspi..a spi..A SPIDER!!!! ACK!" He screamed in fear, batting it away, not remembering about the thread that teathered it to the bed, which caused it to swing back and land on his nose. "AHH!!!!! GetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoffGetitoff!!!!!!!!!" the hybrid yelled, shaking his head, the spider falling to the floor, and rai jumping up and clinging onto the bedpole.

Larien tried not to giggle, as she gently tugged on his arm and pulled him into the bed with her. "It's gone," she said, trying her best not to giggle. "Why don't you take a listen?" she asked, rubbing her belly slowly.

"Oh...alright.." Raito said, resting his wolf ear onto her tummy, but insted of the babies, he was deffened by an incredibly loud rummbling sound coming from his wife's stomach "Owww!"

Larien blushed, stroking his hair. "I'm sorry," she giggled. "Maybe we should've eaten something this morning."

"Should I get the mayo?" Raito laughed, holding his pregnant wife close to him, kissing her cheek

Larien giggled and nudged him lightly. "No," she said smiling. "My cravings aren't that bad anymore."

"Heh, alright." Raito said laying there, not wanting to move just yet, Enjoying the closeness between the two.

Larien laid against his chest, feeling their babies shifting inside her belly. "We still need to think of names," she said smiling up at him.

"oh...well..Im not really the best when it comes up to thinking up names" Raito laughed, kissing his wife, feeling the babies shift as he laied against her, his fingers interwoven with hers "I love you Larien"

Larien kissed him back her hand pressed against his chest. "I love you too, Raito," she smiled. "And we'll think of them together."

"alright" Rai said as a growling noise came from both of their stomachs. "but right now we need to get you some food, your eating for 3 now" Rai laughed as he placed his hand on her chest, then noticed he had missed his target. "oops..sorry" the blushing hybrid laughed sliding his hand down onto her tummy

Larien giggled placing her hand over his and felt the babies moving even through his hand.

"So..In human terms..how far are we along?" Rai asked gazing into her emerald eyes, wanting to know when to expect his children to be born

"Well," Larien said leaning back slightly. "I'm a month and a half in elfen terms and I will be for 1 and a half more. So.. in human terms, I'm about 7 and a half months."

"Woah!..you already passed through 2 of the trimesters?" Raito said, remembering back to the health class that shigure made him take when he enrolled him into that public school, His tail wagging, "Im going to be a father sooner then I thought huh?"

Larien smiled, nodding. "I wonder which halves the baby's will get," she said rubbing her stomach slowly.

"well...thats the complicated part..." Rai said sitting up resting his right arm on his knee. staring off into the space ahead of him "The babies can be alot of things...they could be half angle, half wolf, all three...or...basicly a clone..no elven genes..besides the ones we share in common....thats why I wanted to know if Rose could tell.." the hybrid said, looking alittle worried. "then theres also the extreme of them being full bloods..."

Larien sat up leaning on his back gently. "We will have to be patient and see," she said her head resting on his back. "No matter what they are, they're still our children." She smiled though he couldn't see it.

"Yeah...but thats not what Im worried about..." Rai said placing his hand on her leg, squeezing it slightly

"Then what are you worried about?" Larien asked placing her hand over his.

"Im worried...What....What If I turn out like my father..." Rai said looking to the window "I dont want to but...people tend to become their parents.."

Larien hugged him tightly, laying her chin on his shoulder. "Sweetheart, you're better than your father. They say you turn into your parents, but it's not always true."

"Lets hope so...for all our sakes...but I'm almost half way there...Im a prince..My father's a King..with a queen..." Rai said revialing a dirty secret about his past "All angles arnt that righteous you know...My father is on his way to becoming a fallen..."

Larien nodded and held him tightly. "Michael is a fallen..." she said softly.
