I’m A Vampire, He’s A Werewolf CHAPTER 11

Weeks passed, and Ashley was getting ready for another hunt, while I was getting ready for a nightly feed. Ashley sighed as he finished covering my tattoos. I knew something was bothering Ashley, but even I didn’t know what.

“Something wrong, my love?” I asked as Ashley completed drying the matte makeup.

“There’s a lot wrong, Rocket. For one, our anniversary is tomorrow, and I’m gonna be spending it recovering. Secondly, your birthday is next week, and from what I’ve read from your books, vampires stop aging at thirty years of vampirism. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but every book you own says the exact same thing. Love, I want you to be okay with who you are, and everything,” Ashley quickly replied as he threw me my shirt.

I just smiled, “Baby, I’ll take care of you tomorrow. I know you’re going to be bruised and beaten whenever you get back, so I would love to take care of you. Ash, I love you, and I’m totally okay with what I am. If I wasn’t okay with what I am, then I would have found a cure by now,” I replied as I gave Ashley a gentle kiss.

Before Ashley could reply, we both heard the downstairs phone ringing. I raced Ashley down the stairs to see who could answer it first. Proving victorious, I picked up the phone as I wondered who was calling.

“Andy, Andy, Andy, Andy!” an excited Jake yelled, “I have good news that affects you too!” Jake yelled again.

I groaned, “Jake, remember my hearing? Please don’t yell. Now, calmly tell me what happened?” I asked as Ashley finally made it down the stairs.

“I know it’s been at least a month since we’ve seen one another, and I know the moon is currently full, and you’re behind feeding, but can Amber and I come over? Since you’re behind feeding, and Amber’s not afraid of you anymore, I’ll let you feed off me,” Jake replied as he finally calmed down.

I agreed to let Jake and his wife come over while Ashley was out on a hunt. Thirty minutes later, Jake and Amber finally arrived, Jake smiling ear to ear.

“Jakey, I know that smile. What’s up?” I asked as I offered Amber and Jake a chair.

Jake kept smiling as he sat down, “Well, I can’t really give you a hint, so I’m going to let Amber here tell you,” Jake said as he helped Amber to her chair.

Amber smiled, “Well, Andy you’re going to be an uncle. I’m pregnant,” Amber whispered out with a smile on her face.

“How far?” I asked simply.

“Month and a half, Andy. Jake told me that you have an ability to predict some things. Do you have a prediction on the baby’s gender?” Amber replied as she held Jake’s hand.

Jake smiled as he looked at me, “Sorry if the news came to you as a shock. We were going to let you know after her first ultrasound, but Amber insisted you know before anyone else. For her sake, could you try to predict the baby’s gender? It’ll just give Amber more confidence going into her second ultrasound in about five months. Please, Andy?” Jake asked as his eyes grew large.

I laughed at my twin, “Fine, Jake. Don’t beg me anymore. Amber, come here. Let’s see what I can do,” I whispered out with a smile.

Amber smiled as she scooted up in her chair, her knees touching my knees, “So what are you gonna do?” Amber asked as I looked down at her.

“Move your hands,” I said as Amber moved her hands off her lap, “Jake, if you’re okay with what I’m about to do, then let me continue. If not, then you can stop me,” I told my twin.

Jake nodded as he motioned for me to continue. I nodded as I gently placed my left hand on Amber’s stomach.

“Don’t be afraid. It helps me see better. Sorry my hand is cold, if I could help it, I would try. Just try and relax, child,” I whispered out.

Amber nodded as she tried to relax. She could admit, my coldness was making it hard to relax, but Amber tried anyways. After a few minutes, I removed my hand from Amber’s stomach, and scooted back in my chair, a smile on my face.

“Andy? What is it?” Jake asked as Amber scooted back next to him.

I smiled as I looked up as my twin, “If I’m not mistaken, and I’m usually not, you two are going to be the parents of a baby boy,” I said with a smile.

Amber gasped, “A boy? We’re having a baby boy, Jake,” Amber squeaked out as she hugged Jake’s arm.

“This is great news. Thank you, Andy,” Jake gasped out, “I know, promises are promises,” Jake said as he moved the hair from his neck.

“Always a joy to help, Jakey. Now, this is gonna hurt for a few seconds. If you have to, take a deep breath, bite your lip, do something,” I said as I put Jake’s hair in a loose ponytail.

Jake nodded as he forcefully bit his bottom lip. Seconds later, I sunk my fangs deep into Jake’s neck. Amber gasped as she watched me feed off my twin. A few seconds later, I slid my fangs out, and began to clean Jake’s neck up.

I looked over at Amber, who turned paler than I was, “I am so sorry I scared you. Amber, I am so sorry you had to see that. Believe me, if I had known you were going to see that, I would have done something to protect you,” I whispered out.

As soon as I finished my sentence, Ashley slowly walked through the door, his right leg coated in blood.

“Andy,” Ashley whimpered out, “It hurts. Help me,” Ashley hissed out as I ran over to him.

“What happened, baby? Who did this to you?” I asked as I sat down on my calves next to Ashley, “Jake! Come here, and get my large first aid kit,” I snapped at my twin.

Ashley laid his head in my lap and began to cry, “I don’t know, Rocket. All I heard was a pop, and then I collapsed,” Ashley whimpered out as he began to cry harder.

Jake ran over to me, a very large first aid kit in hand. Sitting down on his knees, Jake helped me clean Ashley’s leg.

“Hand me the tweezers. I think I see what happened,” I growled out as Jake handed me a set of tweezers, “And hold his leg still. If I miss this one time, then I’m going to hurt him.”

Jake nodded as he held Ashley’s right leg steady. I slowly brought the tweezers down to Ashley’s wound, and slowly brought out a blood-covered silver object.

“What is that?” Jake quietly asked.

I growled out as I sat the object down in a tray, “Rifle. Go get his medication. It should be in the first drawer in my nightstand. Jake, hurry,” I instructed my twin.

Ashley began to cry harder at my words, “It hurts, Andy. I can’t believe in a few hours, we’ll be celebrating our anniversary. Four years strong, Rocket. I guess I’ll spend our anniversary passed out and recovering. It’s not how I wanted to spend it,” Ashley whispered out.

Before I could reply, Jake returned with Ashley’s medication. Getting Ashley a glass of water, I helped Ashley with his medication. I gave Ashley a passionate kiss before Ashley fell asleep in my arms.
