The child took off into the woods, turning back every few paces to snarl at the men chasing him. His golden eyes flickered around, looking for a better escape route.
He glanced back. There was no one there. Was there a route he missed? He looked ahead again to see a gap between two trees. He turned down the narrow path.
A twig snapped. He looked back, nostrils flaring. A man appeared in front of him in that same moment. he grabbed him by the throat and crushed it in one quick movement.
I sat up at an impossible speed, gasping for breath.
"Kait?" Alex said. He had his arms around me in an instant. It took me a while to realize it was only a dream.
"Alex," I whimpered, burying my face into his chest.
"Are you alright?" he asked, sounding confused.
"Bad dream," I mumbled. My voice sounded muffled as I spoke. Alex chuckled.
"It's okay, I'm here. I'll protect you," he paused. "Would you like to tell me about you dream?"
"No, It's okay," I said.
"Okay," he said. I pressed my lips to his and drifted back to sleep.
The next morning was like every other morning. Alex and I got up to get dressed, then go hunt.
I turned to face Alex. He gasped.
"What? Does this shirt make me look fat or something?" I laughed.
"I don't think it's the shirt," he said. His eyes were pretty much bulging out of his head.
"Hey...," I said, scowling. He sigh, walked over, pulled up my shirt and turned me towards the mirror.
"Didn't mean you're fat. I meant...well...look at yourself!" he said. I saw what he meant then. My stomach had grown. It was bulging out of my body.
I stared in horror. I was pregnant.
