Elora POV

Waking in the early morning, to terrible back pain, my lower back killing, my hips killing like they were

out of place. As I roll trying to get comfortable the pressure becomes more intense to the point where

even breathing deeply hurt, taking my breath away leaving me panting.

I sit up with a groan, Silas rolling before waking. His hand going to my lower back as he rubs it

obviously feeling the pain I am in, through the bond. His thumbs digging into my lower back as he

messages the area where the pain was radiating from.

I look out the window to only see darkness before looking at the clock it was only 4AM. I yawn before

even that catches in my throat as pain ripples through my lower back. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Maybe have a shower it might help with the discomfort” He says while still rubbing my back in circles. I

nod my belly going hard as the pain intensifies and I watch my round belly tense, feel it under my hand.

“Labour?” asks Silas.

“No, it is in my back, probably Branxton hicks” I tell him though, this was more painful, but shouldn’t it

be in the front not the back? I wondered, everything I read said it was like having terrible period pain,

saying that I didn’t read many books some of it horrified me so mainly read the ones about after baby is

born.

“I will send Dakari to go get them” Silas says but I wave him off, the pain suddenly leaving as quickly as

it started.

“No, its fine, see it’s going now” I tell finally catching a breath as the pain subsides.

“Maybe I should just in case” He says.

“No because then they will have to leave again. They should be back tomorrow, I’m not due yet I still

have a week” I tell him.

“You know you can go early?” He says and I nod.

“Yeah, but I am fine now” I tell him, and he sighs before leaning over and kissing my belly, I let him and

he places his head on my knee mumbling something I can’t understand as he presses his lips against

my stomach. I run my fingers through his hair which was getting longer making his eyes snap to me

before he leans on one elbow looking back up at me.

“Sorry, I got carried away” He says his hand rubbing over my bump softly.

He then hops up walking into bathroom and I hear the shower turn on before he walks out holding his

hand out to me. His naked body standing in front me with no care in the world that his junk is eye level

with me.

I roll my eyes while smirks at my now blushing face being caught staring. “My eyes are up here love”

He says a smirk on his face, taking his hand letting him haul me to my feet.

I hop in the shower, Silas hopping in behind me starting the other shower head, the warm helping the

back pain that instantly started to return as I stood up. Silas adjusting his shower head so it hits my

back as well.

“I think I should send for Matitus and Dragus” He says and I shake my head.

“No, I must have slept funny, it’s in my back not my front” I tell him.

“I read in that baby book there is a thing called back labour” He says and I raise an eyebrow at him.

“You better hope this kid is small, cause it gonna tear you from asshole to navel” He says.

“Was that supposed to make me feel better?”

“No, I was just telling you, I seen pictures that book is very detailed, you know some women shit during

labour?”

“Oh my god stop Silas you’re not helping”

“What I am just saying”

“Well, I don’t want to know, and stop reading whatever that book is, you’re grossing me out” I tell him.

“You’re grossed out someone took a picture of a woman crowning, I thought she had a major bush

turns out that was the head, and it had a lot of hair” He says with a chuckle making me laugh.

“Ah don’t make me laugh it hurts” I whine clutching my belly.

“I should get Victor to check you out” He muses while my mouth falls open horrified at the thought.

“No definitely not” I tell him.

“How else are we supposed to know if you’re in labour or not?” He asks.

“I am not spreading my legs in front of Victor”

“Why you spread them for us all the time” He says, and I slap him.

“No, we will know when my waters break, how long does it take for them to get back from the caves?” I

ask him.

“Flying half an hour” He says, and I nod the pain easing off again.

“See Branxton hicks” I tell him.

“Want me to check” He says wriggling his fingers in front of my face.

“No and stop being annoying” I tell him grabbing his fingers with a chuckle.

“See laughter is the best medicine”

“Says you”

“No, I didn’t come up with that saying I stole it, sounds legit though” He says before lacing his fingers

through mine and stepping closer making me look up at him. He lets go his hands rubbing the sides of

my belly.

“You’re fascinated by it aren’t you, you keep rubbing it”

“Well, this is the closest you have let me get, and the longest you have been in a room with me in

months” he says and I feel his sadness through the bond, guilt hitting me.

“Don’t feel guilty, I made some bad choices Lora” He says his hand cupping my cheek.

“I shouldn’t have killed your father, I’m sorry” I admit, knowing that was something I should have let him

do.

I see his eyes flicker with some strange emotion I couldn’t identify through the bond it was so fleeting.

“I should go make breakfast” He says stepping out of the shower and wrapping a towel around his

waist before walking out, I try feel him through the bond when I feel myself suddenly shoved out

making my stomach drop. Was it something I said? I didn’t understand, his sudden mood change or the

emotion behind it, felt foreign, felt cold.

Hopping out, I wrap a towel around me and walking into the room. Silas walks out of the walk in with a

pair of shorts on.

“I didn’t mean to upset you” I tell him trying to pull some pyjama pants on.

“Just argh just why mention it, you didn’t have to mention it” He says.

“What you can apologise, and I am expected to accept it right off the bat because we are mates, but

when I do you carry on. I don’t understand you sometimes you’re such a hypocrite” I tell him.

“Don’t Elora, just stop. Everything was fine then you have to open your mouth and mention my father”

He snaps.

“Why do I even bother” I mutter pulling on my shirt as pain starts moving across my back again making

me clutch the nightstand.

“What? Speak up Lora didn’t catch that” He snaps at me and I watch him step forward.

“Nothing Silas” I tell him, not willing to argue with him while I am in pain. He growls before suddenly

walking out and slamming the door making me jump.
