Nobody's Baby
She had been eight months pregnant and couldn’t wait for the baby to be born. But that was also when the trouble began.
The father of the baby was having some difficulty adjusting to the idea of another mouth to feed and began to beat her. She did everything she could to keep the baby from being hurt, but she was still afraid.
About a week from her due date, she went into labor. She rushed to the hospital and pushed for too many hours. Eventually, a caesarean was ordered, but it was already too late.
The baby had sustained too much head trauma and she almost died from the effort. In the end, she went home alone and continued to take beatings.
Then one day she snapped. Her rage resulted in a knife in her lover’s back and a new found determination. She vowed to have another child at all costs.
She mated indiscriminately, but nothing took hold in her womb. It seemed genetics knew what had transpired there.
At wit’s end, she decided to create better furtility. And that’s how she ended up eating children.
