Ivy, attuned to my thoughts, encouraged, âWhy not use your witch power to confirm? You possess the capabilities now!â
Her words startled me back to the present.
Indeed, I could utilize my witch power to ascertain my condition, a luxury I didnât have during my previous pregnancy.
Concentrating, I tapped into my power to scrutinize my condition.
And there it was-a new life growing within me!
The revelation was both astonishing and heartwarming.
âIvy, itâs true! Iâm pregnant!â
The thought of bringing another child into the world filled me with joy.
Ivy exclaimed, âThis is wonderful news! Imagine Calebâs happiness and the kidsâ eagerness for a new sibling!â
A smile naturally formed on my Lips.
Yet, it was short-lived as reality crept in, dampening my spirits.
With the two packs fighting, this baby couldnât have picked a worse time to arrive.
If anything went wrong, Caleb and I could end up dead in the middle of this war.
Therefore, this baby might face a life without parents or, worse, not survive at all.
The baby coming now meant trouble aheadâ¦
Lost in these deep thoughts, I barely noticed Calebâs return.
Noticing my distressed state, he quickly approached, filled with worry.
âDebra, you donât look well.
Is there something bothering you?â
He gently felt my forehead, his concern evident.
âDo we need to visit a doctor?â
Debraâs POV:
âNo!â I immediately dismissed the idea.
The response came reflexively.
My mind was racing with the thought that a hospital visit could reveal my pregnancy, a situation I wanted to avoid at all costs.
That was totally impossible!
I bit my lip nervously, grasping my dress tightly.
The news of the pregnancy was so sudden, leaving me uncertain about sharing it with Caleb.
My main concern was that once Caleb knew, heâd likely insist I stay behind to avoid the risks at the Thorn Edge Pack, given our babyâs safety.
