Bella asked quietly, “Was it a hard heat?”

“It was my first. Seven days. The first day I remember... mostly.”

Minoru walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her. “This is her last day of recovery.”

Bella blinked. “What happens after recovery?”

“First, a pregnancy test to see if I am still carrying, and then, we can have sex, and I can remember it.”

The alphas and Ulric got excited. Bella blinked. “You are pregnant?”

“Likely. The chemical cocktail I gave myself was designed for omegas who had been suppressing for several years. It kicked my ovaries into overdrive the moment that I stopped.”

Minoru held her close. “She had eight blastocysts, and we had five removed, so she might be carrying triplets.”

Loki blinked. “No way.”

Polly chuckled. “Way. I get the test later this week. Hooray. Another vaginal probe.”

Minoru murmured, “I will have you used to it by Friday.”

She elbowed him sharply, and he chuckled and hugged her tight.

She looked at her grinning friends. “Yes, I am sure you all wanted to discuss your first time in a group of mixed genders.”

Their laughter calmed, and they remembered her circumstances.

Nari came in and said, “Enough. Leave her alone and tell her why you have come.”

She set the tea tray down, and Polly knelt next to the tray. She started to prepare the tea. She moved her hands gracefully, and Loki moved closer. “Polly, will you return as my assistant?”

She kept going through the steps and asked, “Isn’t Bella going to take over?”

Bella sighed. “She would like to, but her knowledge of tea import is seriously lacking.”

Polly nodded. “That can be learned.”

Bella agreed. “But Ulric is also a needy bastard, and between his perfume and his modelling, I am constantly running around.”

Loki said, “Until it is a strain on you, Polly, I would deeply appreciate your help.”

“I can do most of the actual work from home. If you can do the face-to-face stuff, I can do the paperwork here if Minoru doesn’t mind.”

She handed Minoru the first cup of tea, then Loki, Bella, Ulric, and Rick. Bella blinked. “This is really good.”

Polly chuckled.

“You aren’t having any?”

“On the off chance, I am limiting my caffeine to one cup, and I need that to get moving in the morning.”

Minoru sipped his tea and snorted. “Off chance. You got some of my best work.”

She grinned. “Says you. Mind you, if they look like you, I might have to agree.”

He smirked. “Flattery won’t save you from my clutches.”

“No, but morning sickness might.” She smirked back.
