Swiftcurrent Creek Rebirthing

Last of his name, the sole Duskfire felt whole. Complete after he and Sovereign shared a long overdue time of intimacy. They were connected now, by heart and soul. He was proud to flaunt their new status as a couple.

After they bedded, he foolishly did not give the repercussions any thought. He didn't think there would be any, the chances too slim. He was kidding himself. Today, he had to face the truth. Something in the scent of his white beloved had changed. As man with no knowledge of the medical field, he naturally did not put the pieces together.

That wasn't all. He indeed, noticed her frequent nausea. The way she seemed restless and complained about the size of her sides. Maybe...maybe she had just caught a stomach bug.

With Sovereign feeling a little under the weather, Ensio was vigilant and stayed by her side. Accompanying her to her Auntie's den. As his icy eyes found the den mouth, he wondered if Arlette was at all aware of their coupling. Of their status as mates. His stomach did a flip. What if she didn't approve? What if she'd be angry at him? He tried not to think about it. He stood close to Sovereign, stroking his chin along her shoulders in an attempt of comfort.
