Clutching one hand into the bedsheets I moved my other into Nik's open hand. Throwing my head back I winced through the pain. "Just some more pushes." The doctor said to me, while we had been in labor for a few hours.
We had been put in the hospital overnight when I went into labor. Cami and Hayley were in the waiting room outside. And my brother was watching all the kids back at the compound with the rest of the Mikaelson's. "Urgh! I can't do this."
"Rae, Rae hey look at me." Klaus turned my chin with his thumb and index so I'd look him in the eye. "You are the strongest person I have ever seen."
I sniffed through tears feeling some more contractions. My hair was in a bun but my baby hair was sticking to my forehead. "Nik I....it's too much - god!"
The doctor spoke to me while I moaned in more pain. My knuckles were turning almost white at how tightly I was clutching my hands closed. "Just a few more pushes, Mrs. Mikaelson."
"Ahh!" Klaus kissed my forehead before I gave what strength I had left. Shutting my eyes tightly I screamed, finally feeling relief go through my body. A baby's cry filled the hospital room where I laid my head against my husband's chest when he sat on the edge of the bed holding me closer.
A nurse laid the baby down wrapping a blue blanket around the infant. She then came over and handed it to me. "Congrats Mr and Mrs. Mikaelson you have a beautiful baby boy."
"Oh my gosh. He's perfect." I whispered, hugging the baby closer onto my chest once I had sat up some more.
Klaus shifted closer beside me on the bed once the nurse had left the room with the doctor to fill out the baby's chart. "He has his mother's eyes."
"And his father's hair." I grinned leaning forward and kissing him gently.
Klaus put his head against mine staring down at our baby boy. For once we got to have a normal pregnancy. And we had recovered information we believed would defeat the Hollow for good. "I'm sorry to interpret but have you had a name picked out?" The nurse peaked her head inside the doorway.
"Raelyn, I thought we were still deciding." He raised a brow at me, running his fingers through my messy hair.
Snuggling into his warmth I looked down at our son. "I actually had one name in mind. Henrik Artemis Mikaelson."
2 years later
"Sssh sweet boy." Henrik was whining while I laid him down in his crib upstairs in the compound. My braid fell over my shoulder while I rested my hands on the side of the bed frame. Handing him the baby werewolf stuffed animal we got him he cooed sucking on it and falling asleep soundly.
Walking down the stairs I found Klaus and our daughters sitting around the breakfast table. "How is he sleeping now? Also good morning, love." He asked me to get up from his chair.
"Morning, Nik." I smiled, kissing him gently. "Thankfully getting him that stuffed animal wolf and having you put your scent on it. It actually works to help him sleep."
He wrapped his arms around my waist resting his chin on my head. Burying my face into his black shirt I smiled enjoying the simple morning until something hit my nose. "Off what the....why you little rascals." I chuckled seeing that it was cream from a cup cake that Missy had thrown at me.
"I was aiming for daddy. But he's too high." She pouted in her chair with her pigtails falling over her shoulders.
Hope picked up another, handing it to Alina who used her magic. "Cause you're supposed to do it like this, Motus!"
Nik scrunched his nose when the cupcake hit him in the face. Covering my mouth with my hands I couldn't contain my laughter when the desert fell on the ground and his nose was covered in cream. "Ohh..Nik."
"Awe, that's adorable. Although I don't think you will be so brave when the tickle king comes to attack his princesses." He wiped away the cream vamping towards them with a cheeky grin.
Hope screamed jumping from her chair running around the table trying to stay away from him. "Oh no!"
Missy squealed, raising her hand and launching some more cupcakes at her father. But he dodged them easily. Alina raised her hand to her necklace using her magic, slowing her father's vampire movements when she got the chance. "Morator!"
"Raelyn, did you teach them that?" Klaus glared at me while he was forced to be frozen in place.
I slowly walked towards him with my hands behind my back. Wisseling a toon I smiled innocently at my husband. "Maybe I did. Maybe I didn't. We have had our hands full with a newborn baby so how would you know?"
"Rae, don't make an enemy of me. It won't end well for you. It should be us against them in this cupcake war." He sent me a glare where I saw his eyes turn golden for a split second.
Getting closer to him I put my hands on his shoulder where his eyes focused on mine. Gripping his shoulders under my fingernails he winced slightly but smiled when he felt the spell wear off. "See you can never be mad at me. Now shall we?"
"Ladies first, heretic queen." Klaus gestured his hand forward with a bow making me chuckle at the playful side that only we got to see compared to the rest of the world.
Turning my head towards my daughter's I joked knowing I would never hurt them ever in my life. "Are you scared yet?"
"No way." Hope crossed her arms proudly.
Alina got in a running stance, smirking. "Bring it on, hybrids."
"Maybe a little scared." Missy gulped with her nervousness.
Klaus and I smirked at one another before we both picked up cupcakes and lightly threw some at them. They screamed when they ran behind the table using it as a shield. Missy throws some at me but I spun out of the way throwing my hair around. "Ascendo. Ha ha mommy." Hope giggles when she clocked me in the face with a couple getting me covered in cupcake mess.
Klaus smirked, flashing his hybrid eyes at them. I vamped around the table launching some cake at Alina's shirt. "Reboundus."
"Chronolos." Missy raised her hands, slowing down the impact of the desert hitting them.
Alina smirked like her father moving her hands around and one across her face. "Imitantor pupulus." She moved her hand and I watched as I followed her actions of throwing the cupcake in my hand like she did at Hope. I gasped covering my mouth with my hands since she forced me to throw a cupcake directly at my husband without any control.
It was a few hours where we ended up being stained in chocolate cake and cupcake icing. "Ha ha ha. I think it's time we clean up this mess."
"Awe can we keep playing." Hope whined even though there was cake in her hair.
Missy raised a cupcake up eating it where she had cake covering her face. "And can we get more cupcakes, maybe strawberries next time?"
"Maybe next time, sweetie. Now go get changed okay." I chuckled trying to wipe some icing off my fingers but it was just getting worse with me doing it.
Hope sighed heading up the stairs with Alina and Missy going after her. Once they were gone I leaned into Nik's chest when he wrapped his arms around my waist. "So shall we head to a shower to get rid of this mess, hmm?"
"Baby, Henrik is sleeping in our room. We can't do that while the kids are here." Spinning around in his arms I drape them over his shoulders giving him a half smile.
He leans forward kissing me deeply, moving his hands to hold my face in his hands. "We can if we are just really quiet, my heretic queen."
"Fine, but we have to really be quiet." I chuckled before he picked me up bridal style vamping me upstairs. My back hit the shower wall where he turned the water on not caring about our clothes. I smiled when he held me up with my legs wrapped around his waist crashing his lips onto mine.
Klaus pressed his lips deeper onto mine moving his fingers down my shirt. He didn't waste a second more before he yanked my shirt over my head and onto the floor. "Oh Nik!" I moaned when he ran his fingers through my hair.
"You gotta keep quiet, remember." He warned me, smirking at me when I yanked his shirt over his head using my vamp speed switching our position where he was the one against the wall.
Cupping his face in my hands I drew his lips up onto mine. "Stop talking, Niklaus." He followed my instructions, crashing his lips onto mine moving one hand to my legs about to yank them off with the water soaking us head to toe.
We ditched the rest of the clothing and saw the cupcake icing fall down the drain until someone vamped into our bedroom calling our names outside the locked door. "Klaus. Raelyn, I need your help now!"
"You've got to be kidding me." I threw my head back in annoyance until Nik buried his face in my neck kissing me again.
He nuzzled his nose into my neck with my hands in his hair. "Sssh Rae. Just don't say anything and she'll go away."
"Klaus. Raelyn, the Hollow has taken over Andrea's body!" Hayley banged on the door where we both finally separated enough to look each other in the eye.
Glaring at him he let me down where I shrugged my clothes on quickly. "I will be very happy once we end this Hollow thing."
"Same here, Rae. Let's go take that woman to hell." Klaus smirked tugging me outside where we grabbed the girls and the rest of our family to go find Andrea who was now the Hollow.
