THE PREGNANT SHE WOLF
“She’s pregnant. Three, maybe four weeks. The healer confirmed it last night.”
The world tilted as I gripped the tent pole to stay upright.
Sharon was pregnant again. After everything—after the miscarriage, after the screaming, after the void—she was pregnant again.
While I stayed empty, barren, and mocked. I felt it then, that hot, bright, and acidic rage flooding every vein.
She was showing off, she was parading her fertility in my face and rubbing it in, like she was showing me that she could carry life while my body refused.
