XIV

The Undead:

Vampires, ghost, and even zombies.

This term is best for someone that is suppose to be dead but is still among us, tricking the people that it use to know in order to gain a life force so they can stay on this plane of existence.

A Revenant is the best example for today.

These creatures are visible ghosts or animated corpses that are believed to have revived from death to haunt the living. They have a debt or want revenge for something that was done to them, they can either die after they accomplish what they need to do or choose to live but must eat human flesh to survive.

"She is not human anymore. She is definitely a thing that should not exist, Ace.", I mumbled. Ace nodded and ate his sandwich; he was my new best friend, since Zoro was too busy sparring with Kuina. "She smells weird, like not in a bad way but its not right. We can't say anything; Zoro was pretty angry at you for last time...", he reminded me, his eyes on my wrist.

Flashback

"You're okay with her visiting? Ace wants to come visit you too.", asked Zoro. I had morning sickness and stayed in bed; I mumbled an okay and rolled in my sheets. I felt him kiss my head and leave the room. I growled, frustrated with myself and with Zoro. He was the one that was the jealous type and here I was tearing myself apart over some girl that showed up out of the blue. I heard a motorcycle pull up into the driveway and I gathered myself and walked to the door and greeted Ace, as I turned to Kuina, she ran and hugged Zoro. I clenched my fists and looked away; Ace noticed this and took me outside.

"How are you and the kid?", he asked me, holding me until the dizziness faded. "I guess everything is okay. Just normal pregnancy stuff, I guess.", I sighed. "You should tell him. He has the right to know... Well more like he should know so he is more cautious about his actions.", sighed Ace. "Wait... Did she ask to come over?", I asked, scared of the answer. "...No...", answered Ace. I felt myself shaking and I started to walk back to the house, Ace calling me and running behind me. "It might have been a honest mistake...", said Ace.

I entered the house and walked all the way to the back to the garden. I saw Zoro standing there shirtless and Kuina tracing the scar over his chest. Before I knew, I slapped her hand away and Zoro gripped my wrist painfully. "(Y/n)! What's wrong with you?", growled Zoro. I was in pain, both physical and emotional; I tried to remove my wrist from his grip but he held it even harder and I cried. Zoro let go as Ace punched his arm; I massaged my wrist and held my tongue. "Kuina is a close friend of mine... I hope you understand that not everything is about you, (Y/n).", growled Zoro, walking away and looking at Kuina's hand.

End of Flashback

"Yeah... I know...", I whispered. My wrist had badly bruised even after Marco tried to heal it. "Maybe you should move in with us...", suggested Ace. I smiled and patted his cheek, I sighed and looked at the grass. "What happened a few weeks ago really affected our little life that we had going on here.", I confessed. Ace got up and offered me his hand.

"Let's go have fun, we can go shopping for your son.", He grinned. I bit my lip and took his hand, we walked over to his bike and I put the helmet on and sat behind him, hugging his waist.

We drove to another city and we shopped all day. After we went to the club and set up one of the rooms for my kid. Pops was really happy about the idea of having a room for my child; he ordered everyone to clean up and paint a room the color I wanted. "I should go home now, I don't want to worry Zoro.", I smiled, feeling better after shopping. "Remember, (Y/n). You are MY daughter now. If anyone dares to harm you, I will personally make them pay. Not just me... ALL of your siblings here will tear them apart.", said Whitebeard. The tough and intimidating man was an actual sweetheart; I smiled and hugged him, something that he was not use to, but he hugged me back all the time.

Ace drove me back and I entered the empty house and sighed, I went to go shower and then laid in bed. I started to fall asleep when I heard Zoro come inside and stumbled into bed. "Babe~~", he whispered and got in bed with me. I could smell the sake from his clothing along with Kuinas scent. I hummed and felt his hand pull my shorts down. "Don't... I'm not in the mood tonight.", I sighed. He hugged him and held me close; he sobered up as he felt the bandage on my wrist. "What happened...", he whispered. I sighed and hid my wrist from his sight and moved away; he pinned me down carefully and I looked at him.

"What happened to your wrist, (y/n)?", he asked again. "You did that...", I whispered. His eyes widen and he was completely sobered up now and removed the bandage and saw my wrist and kissed it and it started to heal. "I don't remember doing that...", he confessed, I knew this was true because I felt guilt and confusion. I held him close, he placed his face in the crook of my neck and hummed. I played with his hair and just kept him very close; we stayed like that until he fell asleep. I examined him and didn't see anything, then I checked my mark and my eyes widen, the mark that he had given me was fading away. "No...", I whispered, crying softly.

The next morning, I showered and went with Ace to see Pops. I needed to talk about the mark on my shoulder; this man had lived way longer than me so he had to have some kind of answer. "Did you two fight?", asked Whitebeard. I nodded and explained what had happened and Ace and Marco testified for that event. "Then it seems that he is doubting his feelings in you...", said the man, trying not to make it sound like a fact. I looked down and shook the doubts away from mind; Ace placed his hand on my shoulder and gave my shoulder a small squeeze. "Do you want to see your baby's room? Marco and Thatch finished the crib and now its done...", asked Ace. I smiled and nodded, thanking Whitebeard before leaving.

"Wow... This is absolutely beautiful.. You guys really didn't have to...", I smiled and looked at all the stuff in the room and drawers. "Only the best for my nephew.", grinned Ace. I laughed and hugged him and I felt him hold me close, I relaxed. "Shall we go back to your house?", asked Ace. I nodded and looked at the room once again and felt my hand reach down and stay on my womb, I could feel the bump growing. I was starting to show even more than usual. "Wait, Ace...", I mumbled. The freckled man stopped in his tracks and came over to me. "Is something wrong?", he frowned. "No... I just wanted to know if you could take me shopping again... I need bigger clothes.", I laughed.

We went to store to store, buying and looking at all kinds of clothes. I picked many shirts and jeans in hope that Zoro wouldn't notice the difference. I bought him some stuff and even sake. We drove back and Ace texted Kuina but she didn't respond back. I walked inside and put the bags down and reassured Ace that she would be out without a problem. I walked to the back where our room was and I entered the worst scenario in my life. Zoro was on the bed with Kuina in his lap; he was kissing and marking her chest while she moaned softly. I felt the worst pain in my chest and backed away from the room, not before my eyes met with Zoro's.

I ran out and got on the bike with Ace, he didn't need to ask me anything. He rode off and handed me the helmet; I took it and sobbed loudly. I felt like the earth was ending, and the pain burned on my shoulder. We ended up on a cliff by the beach and I screamed and fell to my knees, the tears streaming down my face. I heard shouting and then growling, I turned to see Ace and Zoro fighting and I got in between them. They both stopped and I glared at Zoro. "YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS WITH ME! Now LEAVE!", I commanded. Zoro looked like he was in pain and didn't budge and turned into a man; he panted softly and looked at me. "What you saw in that room wasn't true, I wouldn't do that to you, (Y/n)...", he whispered. I started to push him away; I felt so much anger that soon I was smacking him and snarled at him, but he didn't move a muscle just looked at me with pain in his eyes. The rage and sadness was taking over my calm and kind demeanor; I felt pain in my womb and fell forward, Zoro tried to catch me but I kept fighting him.

Finally, Ace took my tired body into his arms and carried me away from Zoro. "Please let me take her back home...", I heard him ask. "You don't understand... She's pregnant and this stress isn't good for her. You have been blind with the dead girl from your past that you have pushed the mother of your child away. I am no one here but she is my family now. So out of respect, move or i'll have to kill you..", snarled Ace. "I'm not leaving without her..", growled Zoro, reaching for me. I smacked his hand away and looked away from him.

"I told you to leave me alone... I don't want to see you anymore..."
