Dathan stretches and reaches over and places his hand on Darci’s growing belly. He feels the shift of a body there, feet, fingers, hands. The pregnancy isn’t progressing anything like Eden’s, which frightens him. He rolls over onto his side and can see Darci smiling in the moonlit room. “You are laughing at me, are you not?”
“I am,” says Darci with a giggle. “I’m feeling fine, Dathan. We will figure this all out and I can promise you that my friends will not let me die.”
“I say we ask Rylee and Spencer for the bonding rings,” says Dathan.
“Okay.”
“I love you,” whispers Darci. She kisses his perfect lips. “Do you think he’ll look like you?”
“He?” asks Dathan.
“It’s a he,” smiles Darci.
“I hope he has your intelligence and savvy,” says Dathan.
“I hope he has your physical strength, but I’m hoping he waits on the fangs,” giggles Darci. “I’m not scared. It’s going to work out.”
“I am.”
“You’ve only been around us for a short while, trust me when I say that we don’t give up,” whispers Darci. She kisses him again, this time a little more forcefully. “Have I told you how aroused I usually am when I’m pregnant?”
Dathan’s eyebrows arch up. “Are you now?”
“Let me show you,” says Darci, her fingers edge past his shirt and find his flesh.
Dathan smiles. “Oh, please do.”
