Jayden was pacing back and forth outside his house. He could clearly hear Alice's laboured breathing and her pain-filled screams. Not only was the pregnancy period for vampire women longer, but even the process of delivery was much more painful.
He really wanted to help her somehow, but he was powerless at this moment. Even the environment seemed to be changing according to his mood—not just the Earth, but the entire Nether universe had turned cold to the point it might start snowing at any moment.
Yet the space surrounding the house remained just as warm. All types of thoughts were passing through his mind at this moment, thoughts he couldn't even understand himself. He had never felt this nervous, not even when he was facing death.
Suddenly, Jayden's steps halted and his body stiffened. From within the house, the cry of a baby sounded. Alice's breathing remained fast, but her screams grew weaker and weaker until there were none, and only her heavy breathing remained.
