Mated to my Ex's Lycan King Dad
"Amy. Please step forward."
A gasp escaped my lips as she waddled toward the seat in the room. She was glowing. She looked at peace save for the way she rested her hand on her stomach. She sat back and breathed. A wave of emotions washed over me – a pang of sympathy for her stated, a flicker of anger for everything that happened, and a powerful, primal surge of protectiveness for the innocent lives she carried in her.
The sight of Amy, so visibly pregnant, triggered a cascade of memories. Memories of my own pregnancy with Cecil, the anticipation, the wonder, the love. A lump formed in my throat, a stark contrast to the cold reality of the situation at hand and the truth of the pregnancy.
