The Seven Families (Klaroline)

Chapter 41: Tis The Season...

Here's Chapter 41......

Three months later...

(A/N: Caroline is around 16 weeks pregnant)

Caroline's POV

"Who knew the original family kept Christmas ornaments?" I joke as Rebekah hands me another brown box.

"We don't really. Most of these are toys from our childhood. I just put a string through them all," Rebekah sighs, plopping down on the couch as if she's tired from carrying a few boxes over. I smile at her exaggeration before pulling more ornaments from the boxes and putting them around the tree. I glance over to my left to see Elijah sitting on the couch opposite of Rebekah, reading a newspaper, his face contorted and sharp.

It's no doubt he's thinking of Hayley. A few weeks ago, she told him that the 'wolf elders' had come to her and announced plans for an arranged marriage. The worst part was that Hayley agreed to it, not telling Elijah why. She told me later that the elders were arguing that if she didn't, a new leader would take the rise.

"I still do not see the value in a tree when our child hasn't even been born yet," I turned to the doorway to see Nik marching through. I roll my eyes at his behavior before looking at him again. He has his usual dark gray henley on with black jeans, his body lean yet muscular. Just thinking of him made me horny constantly. I was finally over the morning sickness and nausea, yet my cravings still ran wild and my back and feet hurt constantly even though I'm half vampire. The only good side was my breasts had grown a size up which Nik loved as he played with them constantly. My hormones though are the craziest. One second I was mad or angry at Nik and the next I was jumping his bones, acting like a wild wolf in a rut. He didn't mind it though so every second we were alone, I was cuming around his mouth, fingers, or cock.

I coughed and looked away when I noticed I was staring for too long, my panties in my jeans already wet.

"Because it's Christmas time. Tis the season to be jolly and all that, spending time with the family," I argued back.

"Kol's not even here," Nik exclaimed.

"But, he will be back by Christmas. Davina has only a few more days of classes until her break starts," I counter-argue and Nik huffs. The sound of heels hitting the marble floors catches my attention and I turn towards the doorway to see Freya walking in.

"Are you ready for your checkup, Care?" Freya asks and I nod before placing the more delicate ornaments back in the box, hoping to keep them protected. I walk over to Freya feeling Klaus behind me and we head towards Freya's room that she uses when she's over.

I lie down on the bed as Freya examines my bump, hovering her fingers over my stomach. I always feel nervous when her face is scrunched, her head moving back and forth as if something is wrong.

"Everything looks...good," Freya smiles at me as she finishes moving her hands over my stomach. I give her a weak smile before sitting up careful of the medium sized bump.

"Do you want to know the sex?" Freya asks, looking between a shocked Nik and me. I nod.

"Congratulations, Care. It's a boy!" Freya squeals and I feel the tears welling up in my eyes already.

"A boy," Nik mumbles and I look up at him, his eyes holding the same tears as mine.

"A boy," I smiled up at him. "We're having a boy."
