Valerick's happiness was hard to conceal, he didn't even try. His smile was blatant. The joy behind his eyes was blinding and the bond they shared was filled to the brim with the buzzing feeling.
Zezi was happy too but she remained conflicted. Everything was happening way too fast, and too many things were happening at the same time.
Nicholas' words about the confirmation of her pregnancy were still ringing in her ears, her hands caressed her belly, still shocked that she carried a life within her.
Who would have ever thought that was possible?
"You should rest, I will send Gwen to attend to you for anything that you may need. If you need me, just call me my name through our link and I will be there before you can blink." Valerick said as he led her to the bed.
She didn't protest, there was no need for that.
She had to preserve her strength for something else, the safety of her family was still paramount, her people were still in danger.
