I regained my consciousness in fragments. First, the scent of antiseptic hit me. Then, the feel of cool linen against my skin When I looked around, I realized that this was the infirmary.

I recalled I was in the training field searching for Ryder among the sweating warriors. Then a wave of dizziness hit me so strongly that I felt the gravity getting ten times stronger Like my head was getting heavier.

I blinked, my eyelids heavy. When I looked around the infirmary, I saw him.

Ryder sat in a chair pulled impossibly close to my cot, his large frame making it look smaller He wasn’t sleeping. His elbn were on his knees, his head bowed, his hands clasped so tightly his knuckles were turning white.

He was staring at the floor as if the answers to every question were there.

‘Ryder?” My voice was raspy, barely audible.

His head snapped up. The look in his eyes was a storm of emotions, so intense it seemed unlike him. Gradually ins face y illed with relief as he regarded me.

‘Amelia.” He said gently. In an instant, he was on his knees beside the bed, one of his hands coming up to my cheek, his humb stroking my skin with tenderness. “You’re awake.”

I moved my body to see him better.

‘Don’t try to move. Just breathe.” He said

What happened?” I whispered, leaning into his touch. “I just got dizzy… I don’t remember anything past that

The door opened softly the next second, and the pack’s healer entered. He gave Ryder a brief, almost impercepter d before turning to me.

MMM.

Sanguih, ey weren’t signs of weakness. They were signature of pregnancy

“I’m pregnant,” I breathed, the word foreign on my tongue.

Ryder made a sound, a choked-off mixture of a laugh and a sob. He brought our juned hand to his lips pressing a kiss to my knuckles.

“We are pregnant,” he corrected. “Our heir. Its our miracle. His eyes held mine and in them I saw the future he was already painting: a child with his strength, perhaps with my… whatever I was. A file one to carry on our legacy

The joy in his face was so pure it was heartbreaking.

But then I saw a shadow pass over it.

Suddenly, terror resurfaced. My gaze flickered towards the healer then back to Ryder.

The healer cleared his throat, his demeanor shifting subtly.
