Chapter 2: New life
'Where am I?!'
'Did I die?!'
'I remember receiving fatal injuries!'
'So this is what is known as death?!'
'It's simple and scary at the same time!'
I was in some kind of dream where everything was black. I tried to open my eyes and wake up from that place, but no matter how hard I tried, the result was always the same. Having nothing to do, I began to contemplate on this darkness that I called death. I thought for a long time, I don't know if it was days or maybe it was months. All I could do in that place was think.
'I guess I'll stay in this darkness forever! Maybe I should have made the most of my life!'
The more time passed, the clearer my thoughts became. I reached a point where I could remember my life in detail. It was rare that my memories were intact. I thought my existence and memories would be wiped out now that I was dead.
'Tsk, hey God, what are you waiting for to send me to hell?!'
I tried to transmit my thoughts into the void in hopes of receiving a response. The truth was that I was already at my limit and couldn't stand this hellish loneliness any longer. I considered myself to be someone with an unbreakable spirit, but in this place I could feel my spirit and ego slowly weakening. That agony was indescribable. Acting tough in this place wasn't going to serve any purpose.
'If you're looking for me to regret killing those two bastards, then you're crazy-'
'?!'
Just as I was about to insult God, a blinding light appeared, making the darkness that kept me trapped disappear. After a few seconds of being enveloped in that warm light, I felt myself being pulled. It felt strange, it was as if I had a physical body that could be touched. I tried to open my eyes and what I saw left me speechless.
"Beatrice, you did it."
The man said with a face full of happiness.
"Gerard, honey, we finally did it."
The woman said with a face full of happiness and tiredness at the same time.
"Honey, our baby is beautiful. Look at those blue eyes, they are like two beautiful jewels," the woman said.
"Yes, he looks like me, hahaha."
"What will we name our child, honey?"
"Beatrice, give our child a name. You know I'm bad at naming."
"Are you sure, honey?"
He asked the woman with a weak smile.
"Yes, love."
"Then I've decided. We'll call you Lucien Whiteheart."
"You already had that planned, right? It's a good name."
"I'm sorry, honey."
Beatrice said with a smile on her face.
The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was two people: a beautiful woman who had beautiful reddish brown hair with big brown eyes and a tall man with completely white hair and clear blue eyes. I had thought that I would never see a human again. However, something felt strange. My body was not what it used to be. I was happy since I was finally able to escape from that endless darkness. After calming down a bit, I understood my current situation: it seems like I was just given birth. That was the conclusion I came to. But there was something I didn't like about this situation and that was that this body I was just born into seemed to be in bad shape. I could feel a constant pain in this small body. It was quite an annoying pain. Unfortunately, I didn't have the strength to produce a single sound with my small mouth and my eyes seemed to have no tears inside them.
"Beatrice, we must examine the little one and see that everything is okay."
The guy who seemed to be a doctor said.
"I understand, Charles. I leave him in your hands."
Beatrice said with a smile on her face.
The woman who seems to be my mother handed me over to the man. The language they spoke was unknown. After being taken into the guy's arms, I was shocked. His hands began to glow a light green color. Then my body was covered by a light green aura that spread from the guy's hands. The pain I had was reduced a little. I guessed it was thanks to that greenish thing emanating from that person.
'What was that?!'
'We can't do that kind of thing on Earth!'
'Is this even Earth?!'
'Was that magic?!'
My head was full of questions, but the hard part was getting answers to those questions that popped up in my mind.
"Beatrice, Lucien seems to be doing pretty well. I don't notice anything strange about him."
"Thank God."
Beatrice was thankful to God for letting her be a mother.
"Beatrice, little Lucien seems to be special. He hasn't cried or made a sound and he looks at us with those blue eyes as if he understood us."
Charles handed little Lucien to his mother. He was happy that his friend and his wife could finally be parents.
'Well, I really don't give a shit about this pain that runs through my body. This won't stop me. I'm going to live no matter what it takes.'
After about an hour had passed, I realized something too late: I'm now a baby.
"Well, it's time to feed my precious baby."
'No way.'
In the place that seemed to be my room, my mother took out a breast, took me in her arms and tried to feed me milk from her breast, but I wasn't going to allow that. I struggled for 5 minutes trying not to open my mouth, but it was in vain. My body ran out of strength and I ended up drinking milk from my mother. I had no choice but to resign myself and feed this body quickly. The more milk I drank, the less pain I felt little by little. It was quite a strange occurrence. After 10 minutes of starting to drink milk from my mother's breast, I felt my energy slightly increase and the speed at which I could suck the breast. I thought it was because I was hungry. After half an hour, my mother seemed to have run out of milk in her left breast.
"It seems Lucien likes mommy's milk."
Beatrice called Gerard, who was in the living room, and told him how Lucien had left her with no milk in one of her breasts. Gerard couldn't believe what he heard from Beatrice.
"Yes, our son seems to have a big appetite."
After emptying my mother's left breast, she gave me her right breast which was full.
'I knew it. It took me only 10 minutes of sucking on the breast to empty it and she gave birth to me about 1 hour ago. The speed at which I'm gaining strength is overwhelming. The more time passes, the better I can bite the breast and suck the milk more efficiently, and the pain I was born with is gradually decreasing. I'm curious about this pain that's attacking me. I'm able to feel it and it's quite annoying. It feels like I have many needles simultaneously attacking inside and outside my body. It's a pain I've never felt before. If I could scream and cry, I would gladly do so.'
'How strange, is the milk in my breast already gone?'
Beatrice called Gerard for the second time and sent him to get food that Lucien could consume. Beatrice was afraid that her milk production was insufficient and that she would not be able to properly feed her son. After 30 minutes of waiting, Gerard returned with a woman from the village who had recently given birth and kindly offered to feed Lucien. Gerard introduced the woman as Emilia. Emilia was a young mother who had just given birth 5 days ago. When Lucien saw Emilia, he was very surprised.
'Is this real? Is that pair of breasts really possible to exist? I've never seen anything like this in my past life. This is crazy! That woman's breasts are gigantic. I'm going to have a big feast.'
Beatrice gently handed her son to Emilia to feed him. Emilia looked at Lucien's eyes for a moment and felt strange. Emilia didn't know what caused this strange feeling, so she decided to ignore it. When Emilia took out her left breast to feed Lucien, she was very surprised. Lucien immediately attached himself to her breast and started suckling it in a rather aggressive manner. Emilia didn't understand how a baby who wasn't even a day old could suck on a breast like that. What caught Lucien's attention the most were those clear blue eyes and that beautiful snow-white hair. Emilia was a little jealous of how beautiful Lucien was, as her own daughter lacked such features. For some strange reason, Emilia started to feel tired as she fed milk from her breast to Lucien.
'I'm done, it took me 40 minutes to finish sucking on this woman's breast. I must admit, this woman has a nice pair of tits. She looks quite young for such massive breasts. You can tell she was fed quite well as a child.'
"Strange, it seems I don't have any milk left in my left breast, little Lucien. I see you love my milk. Even my own baby hasn't managed to empty my breasts."
"Strange, my little Lucien seems to be a bit greedy."
Beatrice, who had been watching Emilia breastfeed Lucien, was perplexed by the situation. Her son seemed to be unusually hungry. This was starting to worry her.
"A bit greedy? Hahaha."
Emilia couldn't help but laugh at Beatrice's words.
'Perfect, I feel much better.'
I felt more and more energetic and the pain was gradually decreasing. If I kept this up, I would soon be able to make this fucking pain I was born with go away. As I was about to start suckling this woman's right breast, I heard a strange sound. It was a voice that sounded mechanical, but to my surprise it spoke in a language I could understand.

'Who are you and what do you mean by that?'
I asked in my mind trying to start a conversation with that mechanical voice, but there was no response from that voice. And suddenly, the little strength I had gained by eating disappeared. My eyes closed against my will and I fell into a deep sleep.
