Seraphina's POV
"Hold him steady." Caelum's voice was rough, sounding very tired as his hands were placed on mine. Lyric's tiny body was filled with pain, black veins were moving like shadows in his skin.
"I can't, he is too hot." My voice sounded out loud, the heat was burning my palms as I tried to keep my touch gentle. My baby screamed, his cry was both weak and piercing, a sound that was cutting me apart.
"Seraphina, he can't take much more of this." Kira moved closer, she put her sword aside, her eyes wide with fear.
"I won't lose him!" My words came out as a growl, my wolf rising to the surface, my eyes were burning and turning to gold.
"The bond is moving strangely, the child is calling." The air of the place moved, A low and deep sound was heard loud through the fortress walls. Zevryn's face was weak, his silver eyes were shaking with a light none of us could see yet.
Lyric's tiny chest thrown up once, then paused.
