She swallowed. “So, I am not hallucinating what they said?”
Syar smiled. “No, you are not. We are going to have a kitten.”
She laughed. “I hope not. I would rather have a baby.”
He smiled. “I would rather have that, too.”
Reynaldo put his hand on her belly. “Me, too.”
His touch was delicate and warm. She looked up at him, and he kissed her carefully. She sighed happily at the contact.
Syar cleared his throat. “You know, I am the king.”
She reached out and squeezed his hand. He chuckled. Reynaldo lifted his head, and Syar pressed his forehead to hers before he nipped her lips and kissed her, stroking his tongue along her lips before he delved between them. When he lifted his head, he whispered, “You and Reynaldo will make adorable babies.”
She chuckled. “We don’t yet know which one of you hit the target.”
Syar stepped back. “What?”
“Well, you aren’t infertile. Reynaldo told me that. You just have a low count.”
“Wasn’t he just chatty?”
She nodded and swallowed. “I am going to be super paranoid about this pregnancy, insecure and nervous as hell.”
Reynaldo nodded. “Understandable.”
Syar smiled. “I can hardly wait until we get the all-clear to cuddle your brains out.”
She chuckled. “When do they do their final checks?”
“Oh, you are going to be here with us all night. Scoot over.”
To her amazement, he climbed into bed with her.
He cuddled her carefully, keeping her abdomen flat. She twisted her head toward him and pressed her cheek to his chest. She started shaking, and he soothed her. Every time during the night that she shook with remembered panic, he calmed her. He didn’t sleep at all.
Chapter Eleven
“Don’t you dare apologize.” Syar took sips from her coffee. He had finished his right off.
Ven smiled. They were waiting for the doctors to bring back the discharge paperwork. Everyone who had a flimsy reason to visit her room had come in to fluff pillows and check her IV. They all wanted to see their king and his alpha’s breeder.
Reynaldo had gone off to do something, and she spent her time nuzzling and kissing Syar as they waited to be told they could go home.
“We have a fully outfitted hospital in the village. You will get the best possible care. Nothing will happen to you or the baby.”
“That is a promise you can’t make.”
He smiled. “I am your king. You will follow my directive. You will be healthy, happy, and get nice and round with new life. It’s my royal decree.”
She laughed. “Well, if you say so.”
They were holding hands and softly kissing when Reynaldo came back. He spoke softly and said, “You have a visitor.”
She smiled, and her smile faded when she saw Andrew standing with his arm in a sling and a crutch helping him balance. His little omega was hovering worriedly.
“So, not the kidnapper.”
