Seeing the slightly panicky look on her face, Gavriel gently pulled her to him and made her face him, her feet spread apart as her knees were on the bed. Gavriel held her slender waist and he placed the side of his face gently against her stomach as if to listen to the sounds from within.
"Y-you can hear it? The second heartbeat?" Evie's voice was excited as she pondered the possibility.
Gavriel looked up at her and smiled. His grey eyes twinkled brighter than the stars in the night sky.
He did not need to say anything because Evie could tell from the look in his eyes, from that expression itself. And she lunged herself at him and hugged him, tearing up from happiness.
"I can't believe it!" she cried with happiness, remembering those times when she was told it was very hard for a vampire and human to conceive a child together. Yet now, she was actually pregnant already! "Oh God… I'm so happy, Gav."
