Destiny Part 6 (rated r) Vincent carried her to the bed. Gently lying her down. Tossing his cloak on a nearby chair, he went to get her cool compress. Sitting beside her on the bed softly dabbing the cool cloth on her forehead. Her last words registering in his thoughts, Catherine is carrying my child. Both father and Peter had told me before that with my body chemistry as it is, I may not be able to have children or I could have many. I had never thought about the possibility until I met Catherine. Then it became one of my dreams. His thoughts were interrupted when he felt her tiny hand upon his arm. "Vincent, getting his attention, "I am fine." You never answered my question." "Why didn't you tell me something happened between us Below?" "I had the right to know." "Yes Catherine you did but father and I felt it was best if you remember some things on your own." "I am sorry you had to find out this way." "I can understand that Vincent but something this important." "Catherine we did not know how you would have reacted." "You did not want you to have a relapse." "Did it ever occur to either of you that this might have made me happy to know?" "I am very happy Vincent.' "Now tell me everything?" Taking her hand, you thought we were married Catherine." "You expected us to be like other married couples." "I tried to resist you, but you seduced me one night." "Lowering his head, " I lost my self-control." "When we made love for the first time it was the most beautiful thing I had ever experienced." "After we loved that night, while you slept I ran away from you." "I was ashamed for my weakness." "You woke up in the middle of the night and found me at the falls." You thought you had disappointed me Catherine." "Your lovemaking was beautiful." "You made me feel beautiful for the first time in my life." "I was not disappointed in you, I was disappointed in myself." "I realize now it was not from the self control I had lost." "It was my carelessness." "Deep inside me I knew I had fathered our child." "The circumstances for which our child was conceived, softly touching her face, had been unfair to you." "Our lovemaking did not stop that night." ""After making love to your beautiful body one time, I could no longer fight my desire for you." "Catherine we spent four glorious weeks married in every aspect of the word." As tears fall from his eyes, "I am sorry I did not tell you sooner." Sitting up she wrapped her arms around him."Vincent there is no need to cry." "The pregnancy was unexpected but I cannot be happier." "How do you feel right now my love?" "Blessed Catherine." Lying beside her he took her in his arms. 'Catherine this past week I could not come to you." "My desire for you was too strong so I avoided you. And I am sorry." "Now that you know what we shared, lightly caressing her face, will you share it with me again?" "Yes Vincent I want that more than anything." Gently removing her satin gown, he claimed her body as his own. Afterwards, they cuddled, "Vincent being here like this with you, sharing our love is like a dream." "Yes Catherine like a dream only better." Loving her once more that night. "Vincent did we create the same magic in your bed as we just did in mine?' "Catherine we made love every night for four weeks." "Each night was more magical than the one before." "It was more than I could have ever hoped for." When he kissed her, their closeness ignited their passion. They love again. As dawn approached they knew he had to go. At the balcony door, "Catherine may I come see you tonight?' "Vincent if you don't mind I would like to come Below tonight." "There are some beautiful memories missing from my life." "I want to relive them with you." Going to her, "yes we can relive them." "I wish I did not have to leave you Catherine." "Vincent I know but you must." ""Before I do, sliding the straps of her nightgown off her shoulders, he kissed every inch of her delicate body. Lifting her in his arms he carried her in front of the fire and loved her one last time. Dressed and ready to leave, Catherine was about to grab her robe to walk him out. "No Catherine stay, I want to remember you as you are right now, glowing from our lovemaking, until tonight." Leaning down, kissing her, "I love you Catherine." "I love our baby and he climbed over the balcony wall. She lay by the fire staring into the flames for a time. Thinking about the love she and Vincent shared. Happiness settled within her heart. She and Vincent truly became one and are expecting a child." Looking up, she said, Mom Dad I am going to have my happy life. Putting on her robe she began to clean her apartment looking forward to tonight. "Good morning son." "Are you just returning from Above?' "Yes father, Catherine and I had a wonderful time.' "Father remember I told you Catherine and I were sleeping together?' "Yes son I do." "Well father, hesitating, it turns out I can have children after all." "Children Vincent?" "What are you trying to tell me?" "This past week Catherine realized something happened between us that she does not remember." "She figured out we had slept together when she experienced bouts of nausea for a week." "Father Catherine is pregnant with my child." Part 7 Shirley's Fanfic Index |
